The Lynchburg Republican relates that
during President Grant's recent trip over
the Chesapeake and Ohio Railroad he was
accompanied by Major H. D: Whitcomb,
formerly Chief Engineer of that road,
who was designated by the Vice Presi
dent, Gen. .Wickham, to accompany TTin
• Excellency, and point out the various
points of interest and the places pre
senting the grandest achievements of en
gineering skill. The President and Major
W. were entire strangers to each other,
but so impressed was the former with the
latter’s engineering skill and accomplish
ments that on his return to Washington
he appointed him one of the Board of
Engineers charged with the duty of ex
amining and reporting upon a plan for
the improvement of the mouth of the
Mississippi river. Not only this, but
Major Whitcomb is also entrusted by the
Secretary of War with the disbursement
of the funds appropriated for the purpose
indicated. The Republican remarks that
this act of the President is worthy of
commendation. And so it is, if it was
prompted by an sincere appreciation of
the merits of Major Whitcomb. But how
do we know that Gen. Grant did not make
the discovery that the Major was not only
an able engineer and an honest man, but
that be is also a friend of CoL Mosby and
in favor of a “third term?”
The St. Louis Bbihoe.—This immense
structure, one of the finest specimens of
bridge architecture in the world—the in
auguration of which was celebrated with
such brilliant pageantry and illumination
on the 4th instant—was begun six years
ago, and has been completed at a cost of
about $11,000,000. There are three
Spans of, respectively, 497, 515, and 497
feet in the clear. Each is formed of four
.
ribbed arches of cast steel. The upper
roadway, planked and bounded by rail
ings, is for carriages and foot passengers.
There are a roadway of thirty-four feet
mid two sidewalks, each of eight feet,
making a total width of fifty feet. The
railroad passages are beneath the car
riage-ways. Gates with automatic at
tachments registering the number of
passers check the gray-uniformed toll-
takers, and police patrol the bridge, per
haps to discourage suicide, for there
have been several suicides already from
this tempting position. Under the
bridge, the lowest part of the arch
being fifty feet above high water mark,
the diminished steamers puff and creep
and the river flashes past with a speed
that makes the head swin.

A Sanouinaby Nuisance.—The Tribune
intimates that the fourth of July has
come to be a positive nuisance, and in
support of its theory instances one
riot, six brutal affrays, thirty-five fires,
forty children seriously wounded, at
least three persons killed outright, and
one child burned to death, as forming the
total of the casualties consequent on the
celebration of the Fourth in that city and
Brooklyn.
The list of casualties recorded in the
Philadelphia papers on the same day
reached twenty-five, including all grades
of injuries from the careless handling of
firearms and pyrotechnics. The Newark
papers give a list of some twenty casual
ties of the same character, none of them
very serious. Anxious mothers may be
thankful that of late years the fourth of
July does not prevail in epidemic form in
this region.
Beeoheb’s Last Plymouth Sebmon.—
The Herald says: “Mr. Beecher’s sermon
at Plymouth Church on Sunday was the
feature among the pulpit discourses, not
because it was much more striking or
original than any of the others, but be.
cause it was not the sermon which every
body expected him to preach. It was
the religion of joy that he preached,
when it was believed that he would have
something to say of his own griefs.
There was not one word in the discourse
about the grave charges which affect his
standing as a Christian minister. This
may have been wise, but most people will
doubt its wisdom. The Christian minis
ter ought to be above suspicion, and one
little sentence, ‘Not guilty,’ from Mr.
Beecher’s lips Sunday morning would
have been better than all- his fine words
about the religion of joy.”
The Sacramento Union (Republican)
says: “Grant’s ' positive strength lies in
the Southern States, where his friends
must live or die with the Republican
party. In the Democratic States he has
nothing to hope for, and his appoint
ments to office and all his conduct show
that he hopes for nothing from that
party.”
As the guerrilla movement is evidently
weakening at the South since the ex
posure of the Mosby-Kemper fiasco,
Grant has very little to hope for form
this quarter.
CoL Robert Ledger, editor of Dexter’s
New York Bonner, says that the President,
by nominating Alexander R. Shepherd for
one of the Commissioners of the new
District Government, gave the country an
indirect hut very decisive assurance that
he was not aspiring to a third term. This,
however, is only CoL Ledger’s private
opinion.
Those literary productions are the best,
in a moral sense, says Appleton's Journal,
which lead us away from the heated
atmosphere of the emotions; that either
fill us with high ideas and lofty princi
ples or cheer us by gay and enlivening
pictures of life.
Habd on Congbess.—The Cincinnati
Commercial (ind. rep.) says that “we
have almost as many statesman, in the
original meaning of the term, in Congress,
in public life, ns Sodom had of righteous
men at the time that Madame Lot made
a mess of it.” Yes, we have a hard lot.
National Holidays and National Honor.
The London Telegraph of June 19 has
a long editorial article which begins by
saying that “it is an old and trite remark
of historians and moralists that the cele
bration of national holidays indicate
either a young or a divided nation. ”
Many years, it adds, have passed since
the people of England knew the meaning
of the words “national holiday.” Even
in America the Fourth of July, in large
sections of the country, is said to awaken
no emotion. The elevation of “decora
tion day” into a “national holiday,” the
Telegraph thinks, will not succeed, and
that graves and cemeteries can scarcely
be fitting scenes for such celebration. It
quotes the well-known and beautiful pas
sage of Macauley, where he speaks of
'Westminster Abbey as ‘ ‘the great temple of
reconciliation and silence.” The celebra
tion of decoration day at Washington
it considers as “calculated to prolong
rather than allay the bitter feelings en
gendered by the war.” After giving a
description of Arlington House, the for
mer home of Gen. Lee, it says:
“But will it be believed that, although
nearly ten years have elapsed since the
end of the war, the Washington govern
ment has never yet paid the children of
General and Mrs. Lee, both of whom are
dead, for the house and grounds at Ar
lington, where the chief national ceme
tery is established? It cannot be pre
tended that General Lee has been spe
cially marked out for punishment,
deserving to be stripped of his property,
for in half a dozen of the annual mes
sages delivered by the President, it has
been stated that, with the exception of
the suspension of political privileges in a
few marked cases, plenary amnesty has
been extended to all “rebels.’ We cannot
refrain from hoping that this appropria
tion of the private house and grounds at
Arlington is nothing more than an over
sight. But it will be well for President
Grant’s reputation if, before ‘decoration
day’ again comes round, he absolves the
government, of which he is the head,
from a reproach which will become the
more intolerable the longer it is suffered
to exist.”
Of course it is not in the power of
Gen. Grant, without action on the part
of Congress to restore the Arlington
estate, which was first seized by the Fed
eral Government as confiscated property,
and has since been wrongfully and
meanly - held under pretense of a de
linquent tax sale. But General Grant
shares the dishonor of the disgrace
ful swindle, he never having made any
recommendation to Congress to undo the
wrong. The Baltimore Sun says truly
that “the nation will never redeem its
honor in the eyes of its citizens who have
personal honor, or of the nations of the
world, until it makes proper recompense
to those who would rightfully have be
come the owners of the property by de
scent. Indeed, it is such a stigmation
upon the country that it did not make
haste, after the war was over, to re
quite Mrs. Lee for the property during
her life time, that payment for it now will
hardly suffice to make amends. To do so,
even at this late day, however, is the best
step that can' be taken to testify a re
turning respect for the principles of
honor and justice by our government in
a matter affecting its own citizens, and
this without regard to the opinions of the
outside world.
A Question of Taxation.
An intelligent gentleman suggests that
the Legislature is prohibited by the Con
stitution of 18G8 from exempting any
thing whatever from taxation. Com
menting on this, the Athens Watchman
points out a very effectual mode of re
ducing taxation, which is by so amending
the Constitution as to provide for bien
nial instead of annual sessions of the
Legislature, and adds: “The most direct
and only practicable way to effect these
reforms, is to provide for a Convention
to altar and amend the Constitution.
The last Legislature opposed this, and
many of the members contended the peo
ple were opposed to a Convention. In
this we think they were mistaken. Be
this as it may, let the people speak in the
Doming elections. If they favor high
taxation, let them oppose a Convention.
If they wish their taxes reduced, let
them instruct the Representatives they
elect to call one. It need not cost more
than twenty or twenty-five thousand
dollars. A single session of the Legisla
ture costs upwards of one hundred thous
and dollars, and there is no earthly neces
sity for annual sessions.”
Apbican Superstition.—Nothing can
give a livelier idea of the old and dreary
superstitions still lingering among the
freedmen—which they inherited from
their African ancestry and barbarism, and
which the civilizing influences of slavery
failed to entirely eradicate—than the sto
ries of fetishism, believed in and practiced
by some of them. In a Richmond news
paper we find report of a commission de
lunatico inquirendo in the case of Preston
Walker. He told the examining physi
cian that when he deserted his wife some
years before, he had been “tricked for
it.” From the time when the March
winds began to blow until December, he
felt “something begin at his feet and run
up to his head, and then start back and
run to his feet again.” He didn’t say
that he suffered much from this, but it
was “rather troublesome,” and out him
off from most of the pleasures of life.
The doctor told him seriously that as
soon as he left the jail the trick would go
into one of the prisoners, at which an
nouncement he exhibited signs of intense
relief; and he was ordered to be dis
charged:
Demonstbative Patbiotism.—The New
York World applauds a magistrate of that
city who fined an American patriot of
foreign extraction on Saturday $10 for
practicing the gospel of John Adams
with a revolver in his back-yard, and
thereby disfiguring for life one of his
neighbors who was quietly looking out of
a window. From the World we also learn
that another American patriot of foreign
extraction is now in limbo for stepping
out on the sidewalk in front of hra shop
and shooting off a loaded pistol in honor
of the Declaration of Independence,
whereby he instantly killed the young
child o’f a citizen living opposite to him.
Perhaps this little indiscretion will be
rated as high as $20.

It is intimated from Washington that
Grant is the real cause of the troubles
between Secretary Belknap and General
Sherman. In other words, the President
insists on being the active Commander-in-
Chief of the Army, and issues his orders
through the War Department without re
cognizing Sherman’s existence. If the
office of General is a superfluous sinecure,
costing the people some eighteen thou
sand dollars a year, it should be abolished.
Besides, if as is alleged, Grant contem
plates setting up for permanent Presi
dent or Emperor, he will be better able to
handle the army through a Secretary of
War of his own appointment than
through a General of the Army who might
take it into his head to be refractory.
Letter from 6. B. Lamar, Esq.
To the Stockholders of the Importing and
Exporting Company:
As it is not in my power to reply to all
the various inquiries of the four hundred
and eighty-one stockholders, I feel it due
to myself, as .well as to them, to publish
for their information a concise statement
of the company’s present condition.
There is a suit against the officers, who
took about 1,400 bales of cotton from
Thomasville after the war had ceased, in
the fall of 1865, on the trial of which in
Boston, in June, 1873, the Judge ruled in
favor of the defendants, and it has been
appealed to the Supreme Court.
And there is another suit against Hugh
McCulloch, commenced in October, 1873,
for the same cotton, and for 633 bales
more—all taken by his orders in the fall
of 1865, after he had published an official
circular four months before (in conformi
ty to the President’s proclamation of
June 24, 1865,) restraining his agents
from receiving any more cotton after the
30th of June, 1865, and discharging them
from all connection with the Department
after that date.
This suit, as well as one for about 1,200
bales of my private cotton, will be attend
ed to by Mesers. Ward, Jones and White-
head, and Judge J. S. Black, of Pennsyl
vania, and is being prepared for trial in
October next, in this city.
The company owes an unadjusted ac
count to a gentleman in Liverpool for
$80,000 to $100,000, who has a lien on
688 boles of cotton tafain by the United
States at Savannah, in January, 1865, and
it owes me about $40,000, and a few at
torneys’ fees—not over $2,000 in alL
The attorneys are confident of a favor
able result of the trial in the McCulloch
case, and my own testimony has been
taken by order of the Court, de bene esse,
to be ready for it.
Though I have damaged my own claims
by encountering the malicious prejudices
of the officials, the interests of the com
pany have not been neglected in any case.
I could recount various ways in which
they have denied us the benefit of a
special act of Congress for our relief, bnt,
cuibono ? I rejoice to witness the disap
pearance of much of the enmity and
malice so generally prevalent after the
war, and the manifestation of an increas
ing regard for law and justice in the set
tlement of Southern claims.
I trust the stockholders will be content
to wait as patiently as they can for the
results, and not expect answers from me
to their inquiries—either private or pub
lic—in future. G. B. Lamab,
President I. and E. Company.

The promise of the sugar and rice crops
of Louisiana has not for many years been
better than it now is. Before the inun
dations a large increase in the acreage of
both these crops was contemplated, and
notwithstanding the inundations an actual
increase of acreage has been planted at
least in rice; while if the acreage of sugar
has been diminished the propitiousness of
the season promises to more than counter
balance the loss. The increasing im
portance of the rice crop in the State is
shown by the following estimates for the
past four years:
Crop 1S70-71—barrels cleaned rice 49,911
CropT 871-72 55,000
Crop 1872-73 60,000
Crop 1873-74 80,000
It is estimated that the growing crop in
Louisiana will produce not less than
110,000 barrels of cleaned rice.
The Tammany Celebration in New
York on the Fourth developed less as to
the future programme of the Democratic
party than was anticipated. The speakers
were Mr. James S. Thayer, Congress
men Wood and Cox, and Mr. Rufus F.
Andrews. The latter closed with the
observation that the “question whether
this country is to be a republic or an
empire will close with the centennial.”
The arrival of the President at the Sum
mer Capital and the “Jersey Derby” to
gether, opened the season at Long)Branch
full blown on Saturday. The Newark
Register says daily arrivals at the Branch
are now counted by the thousand, and
life at the Metropolitan watering places
again beats with the rushing pulse of
Metropolitan fastness in all things. The
opening races on Saturday give promise-
of splendid sport during the present
week.
THE WAR TRAIL.
Bloody Times in tlxe Indian Territory—
2,000 Indians Slaughtering and Pillag
ing—White Men Scalped and Burned at
the Stake.
Washington, July 7.
The Commissioner of Indian Affairs re
ceived the following important telegram
to-day, bringing news of a serious out
break among the Indians in the Indian
Territory:
Osage, Ks., July 7.—To E. P. Smith,
Commissioner at Washington: I have
just arrived from Cheyenne and the Ara
pahoe Agency on the north fork of Indian
river. Hostile Cheyennes, Comanches
and Kiowas made their appearance in the
vicinity of the Agency on the 2d inst.,
and on the same day killed and scalped
William Watkins, thirty miles north of
the agency.
Five war parties seem moving in the
direction of the trail from the agency to
Caldwell, Kan. I at once dispatched a
courier to Fort Gill for troops to protect
the agency, which were temporarily
granted. In the morning we mustered a
small party of employes to escort me to
Caldwell. Hostile Indians had been seen
at King Fisher’s rancho, proceeding north.
We took all the men and stock to Lee A
Reynolds’ ranche, on Turkey creek, and
on the 2d instant the Indians attacked
this ranche, but were repulsed, getting
only some horses. Four miles north of
Baker’s ranche we found four men, Pat
Henesy, Geo. Faud, Thos. Callaway, and
one unknown, lying in the rood mur
dered. They had three wagons loaded
with sugar and coffee for Agent Haworth,
all of which was destroyed or taken away.
All the men were scalped. Henesy had
been tied to his wagon and burned.
The fire was still burning. We gave
them a hasty burial and proceeded to the
next ranche. Here we found teamsters,
stages, etc., concentrated. They reported
a war party of about one hundred having
passed North and East that morning.
The ranche men had left them off. We
took a woman and child from this place,
and gave the men all the ammunition we
could spare. The next ranche we reached
after dork. The Indians had gone into
camp torn: miles east on Skeleton creek.
I advised all the ranchemen and freight-
men to abandon their places, which they
did, and by making good use of the night
we reached Caldwell yesterday. We
found Laflin’s ox train at Fond creek,
twenty-five miles south of Caldwell, and
fear this train loaded with subsistence
for the three agencies will be cap
tured, as we saw hostile Indians
in that vicinity, and the party had
only three guns. My chief clerk is
in command of the party. There
are now bnt two ranches occupied on
this road and we fear their fate be
fore help can reach them. I have no
doubt the Indians will clean everything
until repulsed. This is their proclamation.
I have offered my own life in passing
through their lines to save others, and
now I shall ask and expect to receive two
or three companies of cavalry, one to be
stationed at Baker’s ranche to protect the
government’s interests on thin road, and
one at the agencies. These troops should
be transmitted as quietly as possible by
rail to Wichita. No hostile Indiana shall
be quartered at the agency, and I must
have troops to back it up. Let the hos
tile element be struck, and with such
power as shall make the work quick and
effectual. I now go to Leavenworth
awaiting instructions, and ready to go
with General Pope.
John D. Miles, Indian Agent.
Mr. Miles is a quaker, and considered
by the Interior Department to be a cool
and thoroughly reliable agent. His re
quest for the troops has been endorsed
and recommended for immediate atten
tion by the military authorities of the
War Department. The hostile Indians
referred to are estimated to number two
thousand, comprising about one-fourth
of the Cheyenne, Kioma and Arapahoes
tribes.

Washington, June 9.—The following
official dispatch was received to-day
Lone Tree, Neb., July 9, 1874.—In
consequence of the many depredations
by the Sioux in the Wind river valley on
the white settlers and the Shoshene In
dians, one of the latest being the murder
and horrible mutilation of two white
women, Dr. Jayne, agent for the Shosh
ones, made the request that the Sioux
should be punished if possible. On the
morning of the 2d of July, while Gen. Ord
and myself were at Camp Brown, an op
portunity presented itself, and Capt. Torry,
of the 13th Infantry, commanding Camp.
Brown, was directed to send Capt. Bates
and Lieut. Robinson, with Company B,
Second Cavalry, accompanied by twenty
Indian scouts, under Lieut. Green, of the
Fourth Infantry, and about one hundred
and fifty Shoshenes, under their Chief,
to attack a camp of the Sioux, lately es
tablished on the north side of the Owl
mountain range, where the Wind river
breaks through,distantahout ninety miles
from Camp Brown.
The attack was made at 3 a. m., Friday,
July 3d, the result being fifty Sioux killed
and wounded and over one hundred horses
captured. Our loss was two men killed,
and Lieut. Young and three wounded.
Lieut. Young dangerously. Capt. Torry
telegraphs that the result was not as sat
isfactory as desired, on account of tho
bad behavior of the Shoshenes. Capt.
Torry went out on the 5th with ambu
lances and additional men to meet Capt.
Bates. (Signed)

FIBE ON THE BAH..
Norfolk, July 9.—The mail and ex
press car attached to the eastward bound
train on the A. M. & O. B. R., was en
tirely destroyed by fire this afternoon,
about nine miles east of Petersburg. The
mail car contained an unusually heavy
Northern and Southern mail, which, to
gether with the express matter in on ad
joining department, was entirely con
sumed. Route agents C. L. Jones and J.
N. Jennings, the only persons in the car
at the time, were badly burned about the
face and arms. They were unable to
give an alarm owing to the burning of
the bell rope, and after an ineffectual
effort to save the most valuable parts of
the mail, they both jumped off and were
afterwards picked up in a bruised condi
tion. The fire was not discovered by
those on the forward cars until the train
ran several miles and the car was burned
down to the wheels. The origin of the
fire is not known.

Vebsailt.es, July 9.—In the Assembly
today, the message of President Mac-
Hahon, of which notice was given yester
day, was presented and read by General
DeCissey, Minister of War, as follows:
“When yon, by the law of November
20th last, delivered the executive power
into my hands for seven years, you in
tended to afford to the public interests
that security which precarious institu
tions are powerless to give. That vote
conferred upon me great duties, for the
fulfillment of which I am accountable to
France, and from which I am in no case
to be permitted to withdraw. It also con
ferred rights which I shall never exercise
except for the good.of the country. Your
confidence rendered my powors irrevoca
ble for a fixed term in forestalling the
votes on the constitutional bills. In ac
cording them, you, yourselves, enchained
your sovereignly. I shall employ the
means with which I am armed by the
laws to defend my power. This course,
I am convinced, is in accordance with
the expectation and will of the Assembly,
which, when it placed me at the head of
the government, intended to create a
strong, stable and respected power. But
the law of November 20 must bo com
pleted. The Assembly cannot meditate
tearing up its engagements. Let it per
mit me to pressingly remind it of the
claims for fulfilment of that engagement.
The country demands an organization of
the public powers, and questions which
were reserved must be settled. Further
delay will depress trade and hamper the
prosperity of the country. I hope the
Assembly will not fail to patriotically
fulfil its obligations. I adjure it in the
name of the highest interests of France,
to deliberate without delay upon the
questions which must no longer remain
in suspense. The Assembly and the gov
ernment are jointly responsible. I am
desirous of accomplishing all my duties
and my most imperative duty.”
THE PUBLIC LANDS.
Washington, July 9.—Copp’s Western
Land Owner for July, contains the fol
lowing: There are remaining in the
General Land Office, undelivered, more
than 300,000 patents for agricultural
land. Of this number about 75,000 are
from Illinois, and' nearly as many from
Tnrliqrm and Missouri. Among them are
patents signed by Monroe and by and for
every other President up to Lincoln’s
time. The cause for this accumulation
of patents lies in the fact that many land
owners believe the duplicate receiver's
receipt is sufficient evidence of the title
to their land. It ought not to be so re
garded. Entries are being constantly
cancelled by the General Land Office for
informality, and if the address of an in
terested applicant is not known at the
local office, as too often is the case, he
or the party to whom he has sold his
land will some day be much astonished to
find another person holding the govern
ment patent for his property.
NEW YOBK NOTES.
New Yobk, July 9.—Mr. Bluford Wil
son, Treasury Solicitor, has been in this
city for the last two days investigating
the affairs of the Secret Service Division
under Colonel Whitely, to ascertain the
truth in regard to that Department’s al
leged connection with the safe burglary
that was said to have occurred in the
office of the District Attorney in Wash
ington on the 23d of April. The inquiry
is not yet closed.
At the meeting of the Police Board to
day, Commissioner Matsell was elected
President and Commissioner Duryea
Treasurer, thus removing the dead-lock.
FEAKFUL DISASTER.
San Fbancisco, July 9.—The Sydney
Herald of June 5th, in giving the particu
lars of the loss of the iron clipper ship
British Admiral on the west side of King’s
Island, says: “Out of 88 persons on board
only 9 survived to tell the tale of the aw
ful disaster. The captain and principal
officers of the ship were lost. The British
Admiral is the eighteenth vessel wrecked
on King’s Island since 1840, and over 800
persons have perished on this shore."
FROM BOSTON.
Boston, July 9.—In the matter of the
Union Pacific Railroad and the petition
for its bankruptcy, notice was to-day
filed in the United States Circuit Court
of the withdrawal by the petitioning cred
itor of his appeal from the adverse de
cision of Judge Lowell, thus raiding the
case in favor of the road.
SWIFT JUSTICE.
Hartford, July 9.—James McCabe, a
New York thief, robbed a jewelry store
here this morning and was caught. At
half past three p. m. he was in the State’s
prison to serve out a term of seven years
for his offence.
KILLED BY THE GABS.
Springfield, Mass., July 9.—William
Harris, an old man, Lizzie Martin, a
young woman, were struck by a railroad
train at Easthampton last night and fa
tally injured.
The Ohio Constitution.—There are
indications that the adoption of the new
Ohio Constitution will be made a partisan
question. The Democratic committee of
Wayne county has declared against it,
and the Cincinnati Enquirer calls upon
the Democracy in all of the other coun
ties to follow the example, adding: “It
has been clearly shown to be a partisan
Constitution—the design of which is to
give the Republicans the majority in the
General Assembly Jor all time to come,
even when they are largely in the mi
nority.”
The Italian Cbown.—La Paine, the
well known Paris journal, noticing a
rumor that Victor Emmanuel intended to
abdicate, declares that “the act which
will transfer the crown of Italy to Prince
Humbert may not long be deferred.’
The King is now in his fifty-fifth year,
having been bom on Much 14, 1820.
Prince Humbert, the Crown Prince, bom
on March 14, 1844, was married on the
22d of April, 18G8, to his cousin, the
Princess Margaret, of Genoa, and has a
son, Vittorio Emmanuele, bom November
11, 1869.
The Convention of Universalists in
Maine have passed resolutions forbidding
their committee to exclude women from
their ministry, and ordering them to
accept candidates who are duly qualified
without any distinction of sex. The
Unitarian denomination have not passed
any resolutions upon the subject, yet
they have accepted the ministry of women
and enrolled their names, in some cases,
upon the official list of their clergy.
The well-informed Washington corre
spondent of the Courier-Journal says
that the report of the examiner that the
assets of the Freedman’s Savings bank
would yield ninety-three per cent, is not
sustained in the judgment of prudent
business men. These say that the ex
pense of the bank will be going on for
three years, and no income coming in, so
that the aforesaid ninety-three per cent,
will be very considerably reduced,
A Steamer on the Rooks.—Cotean
Landing, Quebec, July 8.—The steamer
Corinthean, of the Royal Mail Line, struck
a rock last evening while running down
Cedar Rapids, and was run high and diy
on split rock. Two hundred American
tourists are aboard, but will get off safely.
The vessel’s situation is not considered
dangerous, although lying in the fiercest
part of the rapids. Purser Sboer Las just
arrived here and reports all quiet on
board. He has arranged for the tug
Anderson to go to the relief of the pas
sengers.

Schenck’s Sea Weed Tonic.
In the atmosphere experienced here daring the
summer months, the lethargy produced by the
heat takes away the desire for wholesome food,
and frequent perspirations reduce bodily energy,
particularly those suffering from the effects of de
bilitating diseases. In order to keep a natural
healthful activity of the system, we must resort
to artificial means. For this purpose Schenck’s
Sea Weed Tonic is very effectual. A few doses
will create an appetite and give fresh vigor to the
enervated body. For dyspepsia, it is invaluable.
Many eminent physicians have doubted whether
dyspepsia can be permanently cured by the drugs
which are generally employed for that purpose.
The Sea Weed Tonic in its nature is totally differ
ent from such drugs. It contains no corrosive
minerals or acids; in fact it assists the regular
operations of nature, and supplies her deficien
cies. The tonic in its nature so much resembles
the gastric juice that it is almost identical with
that fluid. The gastric juice is the natural solvent
which, in a healthy condition of the body, causes
the food to be digested; and when this juice is
not excreted in sufficient quantities, indigestion,
with all its distressing symptoms, follows. The
Sea Weed Tonic performs the duty of the gastric
juice when the latter is deficient. Schenck’s Sea
Weed Tonic sold by all druggists.
