The changes that have taken place cannot all be recalled, and when the balance is struck in future years, or the results summed up in the pages of history, it will be found that something has been gained on the side of national progress and solid improvement.

Upon the above motion of the conductors of the paper the first impression was that the World editorial was the result of a conference with those who had authority to call the Democratic Executive Committee together; but now that it appears that the members of the committee are generally opposed to the naming of new nominees, the World editors are soundly berated for assuming the authority to control the party in a matter so vital to its inter ests. They also charge that the managers and editors of the World are not Democrats, and never have been; that especially Barlow, who controls the concern, is not in accord with the political sentiments advocated by the Democratic party, and that he never was a Democrat. Be this as it may, there are persons now in New York endeavoring by their counsel to bring about an amicable agreement or plan by which the mischief done recently through the injudicious conduct of the managers of the paper may be repaired.

When their action ceases, the vitiated and weakened bowels are less capable than ever of fulfiling their functions properly. In HOLLOWAY'S PILLS sufferers from costiveness have a mild, genial purgative, exactly suited to the exigencies of the case. Instead of weakening the intestines the Pills brace and invigorate, as well as cleanse and regulate them. In the worst chronic phases of the complaint, they soon produce a permanent change of habit.

They have fifty years to run, and are convertible into stock at the option of the holder. A sinking fund is provided, sufficient to pay off the whole mortgage at maturity. Each bond is for $1,000 or £200 sterling. Interest is payable in New York or London, at the option of the holder. These bonds are amply secured, being a first and only lien upon the company's entire line of roadwhich traverses the finest district of Illinois-upon its franchises, rolling stock and other property, and upon its coal lands, of which it now controls over 20,000 acres, estimated to contain 100,000,000 tons of coal.
