TAPPING the wires.
The passenger steamer Mary Morgan j
■with several hundred excursionists on board,
collided with a produce freight propeller,
the Pierrepont, near Fort Delaware, Friday
might. The Pierrepont was sunk and her
passengers and crew, numbering twenty-two
fouls, were taken aboard the Morgan. For
tunately the iron hull and water tight com
partments of the latter prevented her sink
ing.
The GreenbrierWhite Sulphur Springs were
Sold Saturday to Mr. A. F. Matthews, of
iewisburg, West Virginia, for $300,000.
The Memphis Board of Health on Satur
day formally pronounced the yellow fever
epidemic in that city. The death rate is
small in proportion to the number of cases
xeported, and inasmu ch as a large propor
tiou of the population liable to the disease
lave left, it Is expected that the rate of
mortality will not exceed in any week that
of-the week past. The total number of
cases reported up to Saturday from the first
appearance of the disease is three hundred
number of deaths ninety-seven. Even-
practical means of disinfection and local
sanitation calculated to arrest the disease has
been, and will continue to be, practiced.
Expenses of nursing, etc., are $500 per day,
and will probably increase. No assistance
Trom outside would have been needed, but
negroes have flocked into the city to receive
tree rations, and as these furnish food for
the disease it may spread and outside aid
•wilf be' required.
No case of fever nor of any suspicious
disease exists in New Orleans.
A fire in Petersburg (Va.) yesterday de
stroyed the grocery store of R. H. Stevens.
Loss estimated at $5,000. Insurance, $2,000
on the stock and $3,000 on the building.
The building was first robbed and then
fired.
Edwin Forrest made the fastest time ever
trotted in the world on a three-quarter mile
track on Mr. Bonner’s farm, near Tarry-
town, N. Y., Saturday afternoon. He made
the mile in 2:11%.
The Abbott Democrats of Massachusetts
lave tabled by an unanimous vote the re
quest of the Butler Democrats to unite with
them in calling a convention. *
Col. John F. Mines, a journalist, disap
peared mysteriously from the Astor House
about three weeks ago. Search has been
made for him without success. Foul play is
leared.
King Alfonso had a narrow escape from
death on his return from the funeral or hi6
sister, Marie del Pilar, a fews days ago. The
axle of his carriage broke while passing a
precipice, and had the postilion not contrived
to swerve the vehicle to the opposite side of
the road the whole royal party must have
been killed.
The Serajevo fire was extinguished at 8
o’clock Saturday morning. The loss is
placed at 100,000,000 of florins. This, how
ever, Is considered exaggerated. The Em
peror of Austria has sent 10,000 florins to aid
the sufferers. The fire was startetLby an ex
plosion of spirits. A society to solicit aid
for the homeless has been fonhed, and the
Duke of Wurtemburg has organized a com
mittee to rebuild the burned district.
The Panama canal shares are quoted in
Paris at 5 francs below par.
A Berlin dispatch denies the report that
the German Government contemplates any
change in its policy in regard to the silver
question.
Major John 8. Braxton, Collector of Cus
toms at Norfolk, died in that city suddenly
Saturday night of gout of the heart. He
■was a gallant Major of infantry in the Con
federate army.
Rev. Dr. Lawrence McMahon was conse
crated Bishop of the Hartford (Connecticut)
Diocese yesterday, in the presence of one
hundred and fifty priests and many Bishops.
A large number of people were also present.
Twenty-nine new cases of fever and five
deaths were reported yesterday in Memphis;
two cases were reported in the family of
3Ir. Stout, eighteen miles from that city.
They will be investigated. The National
Hoard of Health recommend a continuance
of the policy of depopulating the city, and
the'isolation of infected persons.
The ex-Khedive seems disposed to take

Col. John F. Mines, a New York journal
ist, disappeared mysteriously from the As
tor House about three weeks ago. Diligent
search has been made for him without suc
cess, and foul play is feared. It was Col.
Mines who, about two months ago, exposed
the plot which Grant had formed to kidnap
Mr. Tilden and carry him to prison on a
charge of high treason, if he had at
tempted in March, 1S77, to claim the Presi
dency, to which he had been elected, but of
which he was so shamefully defrauded. Was
CoL Mines“ removed ” by any of Grant’s
friends to prevent him from making any
farther damaging developments?
Tobacco in San Domingo.—Mr. Sou-
tier, Ignited States Consul at Cape Hay-
tien, in a dispatch to the Department of
State, reports considerable distress in
San Domingo on account of the failure
lo sell the present crop of tobacco, ex
cepting small quantities smuggled into
Cuba, from whence it is exported as
Cuban tobacco or cigars. The bulk of
the tobacco of San Domingo has hereto
fore been sold to Germany. Owing to
the recent tariff enacted in that empire
the market for tobacco is closed. This
makes a difference of over a million of
dollars to the Dominicans, and seventy-
live thousand dollars to the government
by way of duties. In some parts of the
island the planters will substitute sugar
and coffee crops for tobacco.
Mr. Corbin Overreached.—The
Denver (Col.) News states that the Hon.
D. T. Corbin, late of South Carolina,
visited that city lately, and was induced
by a sharper to invest $10,000 in “silver
brick,” which were represented to be
very pure and a great bargain. Mr.
Corbin discovered, when too late, that
the brick were of the basest alloy, and
worthless. Thus Mr. Corbin was as un
lucky in bis silver speculation as he was
in his aspirations to represent South Car
olina in the United States Senate.
"Yellow Feref Pronounced Epidemic
in Memphis.
The yellow fever news from Memphis
by Hie Associated Press dispatches re.
ceived Saturday night, state that inas
much as deaths from that disease have
finally exceeded those from all other
causes combined, and as the fever is
spreading to all sections of the city, the
Board of Health have at last decided to
formally pronounce the fever epidemic.
It seems to us that the Board of Health
has been so very tardy in its action in
this respect that it might just' as well
have let matters go on as they were
without officially pronouncing the dis
ease epidemic at all. Their doing so
now is a mere formality. Practi
cally this announcement was made
weeks ago. The work of depopu
lating the city has been going
on for nearly a month. Camps have
been established outside the limits of the
taxing district for ^uch of the poor as
were unable to get away, while the Gen
eral Government has been appealed to
for aid in the way of furnishing tents
and provisions for the refugees. The
Howards for some time have been active
ly on duty, and the entire country has
recognized the epidemic nature of the
disease for weeks past
The New York Herald in a short edi
torial some days ago on this subject
showed up in a very striking manner the
apparent absurdity of the Board of
Health refusing to declare the plague
epidemic until after the deaths from that
source should exceed those from all
other sources combined. For instance,
if the average daily death rate of Mem
phis should be as high as sixty, and of
this twenty-nine were from yellow fever,
and the remaining thirty-one -were irom
other causes, under that decision, the
disease would not be epidemic. We
imagine, however/that, under such cir
cumstances, the board might declare it
not epidemic until they were weary,
yet, as has been the case
already for some time, business
would be as dead, the people would be
as panic stricken, and the exodus from
the place would be as great as if the
board had determined to adopt a differ
ent course, as soon as the new cases of
this disease had numbered from ten to
fifteen a day. Indeed, it is not the
number of deaths, after all, that should
be considered in determining its epi
demic character, so much as the new
cases of the disease which are reported,
and after Jhese were sufficiently numer
ous to induce the board to advise people
to leave by wholesale, a further declara
tion became superfluous.
But, whether pronounced epidemic or
not, one thing is certain, 3Iemphis is
doomed to undergo another siege of
sickness, from which there will be no
relief until frost, fully two months hence.
The suffering and distress which will
ensue between now and then will be
great, though it will be small com
pared to that of last year, since the
large majority of the whites in the place
liable to the disease have left, and the
work of death will mainly be confined
to obstinate negroes, who, thinking
themselves secure, have refused to leave,
in the expectation of being furn : shcd
with rations free of charge, and without
being required to do any labor therefor.
A Prosperous Southern Port.
The statistics of the trade of Norfolk
show rapid progress in many directions.
Exports for the last fiscal year were very
large, amounting to $10,000,000. The
city has 430 business establishments^
with an invested capital of $17,000,000.
It djoes a business, of $1,500,000 in lum
ber; and $300,000 in staves. It is the
largest handler of peanuts in the world,
the receipts this year amounting to 600* •
000 bushels, worth as many dollars.
The cotton receipts for eleven months
this year equal 441,270 bales, of
which 221,116 were for local account,
against 426,743 bales, 189,196 local,
for twelve months last year. Thus Nor
folk is the third cotton market in the
country. Norfolk’s gorcery trade
amounts to $4,500,000, and is extending
rapidly in area and volume. * The oyster
business is very important, employing
2,500 bands, and consuming 1,000,000
bushels of bivalves, worth thirty-five cents
per bushel. The trucking business is well-
known. It produces annually about
$2,000,000, and the quantity marketed is
enormous.
The Cincinnati Enquirer publishes in
terviews from all parts of Ohio, showing
the feeling among the Nationalists as to
the probablo vote of their party. The
estimates arrived at from the report are
that forty per cent, of the Nationals will
vote for Ewing, ten per cent, for Foster,
and fifty per cent, will support the Na
tional ticket. The reports received cover
about four fifths of the Greenback coun
ties of the State. The Enquirer says it
is too early to begin to forecast the re
sult of a campaign which does not close
until the middle of October, but “ with
the drift of opinion tending so strongly
as it does in Ewing’s favor from this
source, there is every reason to feel con
fident of his success.”
In M. Loudun’s book on the late Louis
Napoleon the latter says, in a letter, that
he is going to Zululand because it is
necessary for him to give proofs of en-
eigy, and 9f ability to take the initiative.
I shall find, 1 * he adds, “in tberbfi£h
experiences of war a preparation for the
duties that may devolve upon me.” In
other words he was meditating Another
coup d'etat in France. “This revela
tion,” say Le Globe, “is of a nature to
impair somewhat one’s pity in the
presence of the tragic death of the young
Prince.” The friends of the French Re-
publicareat length getting their eyes
opened to the deliverance wrought for
them by Zulu assegais.
Father Theophilus Van der Moortel, a
Koman Catholic clergyman of Chicago,
has joined the Protestant Episcopal
Church. He hq$ been a priest and a
member of the Society of Jesus, has
been attached to the Church of the Holy
Family, in West Twelfth street,Chicago,
and a Professor in St. Ignatius College,
and has also been actively engaged in
mission work. He is an accomplished
scholar and eloquent preacher.
The New Orleans Democrat says: “The
drant boom hereabouts is heard no more.
CoL J. M. G. P. must be in the East
attempting to keep down the tempera
ture, or helping his brother-in-law. The
flnp. Italian hand of John Sherman be
gins to appear in Louisiana politics, and
unless the Colonel hastens home to give
it fresh impetus, there will be nothing
left of the third term movement in a
abort time.”

Central America Courtesies.—Mr.
Logan, United States Minister to Central
America, in a dispatch to the Department
of State, dated at Guatemala City, July
5th, 1879, gives interesting accounts of
several displays by the Government of
Guatemala of respect for the United
States. On the 4th of July President
Barrios sent his own band (eighty-eight
pieces) to the residence of the Minister
from the United States, to add to the
demonstrations of the day. A banquet
has also been given to our Minister by
the President, with other unusual marks
of cordiality towards the United States
Government
A Boston ice company is now said to
be manufacturing ice by a cheap refrig
erating process at a very large profit
The ice sells at wholesale for ten dollars
per ton, while the cost is only eighty-
five cents per ton. This manufactured
ice is remarkably solid, coming ont in
blocks thirty inches long and twelve
inches square, and is absolutely pure.

The Florida Canal Scheme.
Recent dispatches from Washington
ibeport the promoters of the scheme for
the ship canal across the peninsula of
Florida as being unusually active. Capi
talists of high standing have been in con
sultation with Senator Jones, of Florida,
and have assured him, it is reported,
that if the proper concessions can be got
from the State, French capital will be
forthcoming for building the canal.
These concessions include the right of
way from Cedar Keys to the mouth of
the St John’s river, and exemption
from taxation for the canal and its prop
erties for twenty-five years, which can
only be granted by the Legislature.
Whether this plan be the
one or not cannot be determined
at present, and there are not a few
persons who are of the opinion that the
Frenchmen backing it are doing
merely for the purpose of making the
De Lesseps Panama ship canal more
popular than it is at present with the
people of the United States. But how
ever this may be, it is held that very
great advantages would accrue to the
commerce of the whole United States if
such a canal were constructed. It would
shorten the water route from New Or
leans to New York a thousand miles,
would revolutionize the trade routes and
commerce of the Gulf of Mexico,
would advantage the trade of Europe with
the Gulf in a still greater degree. That
commerce would then take the route of
the Bahamas directly to the Gulf by the
canal, instead of (as now) piercing the
barriers of the Antilles by way of the
Mono and Windward passages, exposed
to all the dangers of reefs and the hurri
canes of the Caribbean sea. The route
would be greatly shortened, likewise.
Our coasting vessels would no longer be
exposed to the perils that they are con
stantly meeting along the line of the
Florida reefs. The construction of the
canal would not be either difficult or
costly, and the water supply, if locks
were used, would be inexhaustible.
Important Decision for the Germans.
Carl Gerhard Bersselier, a native of
Germany, became a citizen of the United
States by naturalization in 1848, and sub
sequently, while residing in St Louis,
had two sons, one born in 1852 and the
other in 1854. While these boys were
minors the father returned to Germany,
taking them with him, but before they
became of age the sons returned to St
Louis, where they have ever since con
tinued to live. For the last three years
the father has been subjected to various
annoyances by the local authorities of
Germany because of the refusal of the
young men to report themselves for en
rollment in the German army, which
annoyances assumed the shape of threats
of prosecution and the imposition of
penalties under the German military
law and their enforcement against the
property of the elder Bersselier in Ger
many. These proceedings finally cul
minated in a process. Mr. Evarts
promptly instructed our Minister at Ber
lin to bring this subject to the attention
of the Imperial Government, and to ex
press in strong terms the earnest desire
of the American Government that any
proceedings which might be pending or
which might be contemplated in .regard
to the property of the two brothers Bers
selier, based upon their refusal to sub
mit to the demand for military service,
might at once bo put au end to. The re
sult of the emphatic and decisive action
taken by Mr. Evarts was a decision in
favor of the Bersseliers.
The Outlook from an English Point
of Ylew,
This year in America will be extra
ordinarily prosperous if the London
Saturday Review is a good prophet. “So
far as one can judge,” says that journal,
the improvement in the United States
is real. It is based, as we have just
seen, on an extension of cultivation and
an exceptionally good return for a suc
cession of years; and, after all, an in
crease of the fruits of the earth is the
foundation of all true wealth. It must
not be concealed, however, that there
are causes for uneasiness. The resump
tion of specie payments, of which the
Americans boast so much, is in reality
inflation of the currency.
The greenbacks remain in circu
lation, and to these has been added
a mass of gold and silver. This has fos
tered speculation, which by and by may
be productive of embarrassment. The
situation is therefore not without its
dangers. But, on the other hand, the
persistent bad weather, which is so dis
astrous to Europe, will pour new wealth
into the United States, ft is unfortu
nately only too certain now that the de
mand for American produce during the
next year throughout Western Europe
will be enormous. It is probable, there
fore, that the Americans will dispose of
their vast food supplies at enhanced
prices, and thus that the year will for
them be an exceptionally prosperous

GENERAL FEVER ITEMS.
By Telegraph to the Morning News.
Memphis, August 10.—Twenty-nine cases
were reported to-day—twelve white and
seventeen colored. Among the former were
Thomas 8. Bateman, Charles Mead, Austin
W. Dowell, Arthur White, Dr. Oscar Berty,
W. B. Erwin and Carrie:Williams. Five
deaths have occored, viz.: Fritz* Hetach,
Michael Dwyer, Martha Woods, Eva Now-
land and J. Clements.
Dr. S. H. Collins this morning was sent
for from Forrest Hill, Tenn., eighteen miles
from Memphis, on the Charleston Railroad,
where two cases of fever have developed in
the family of Mr. Stoat. Dr. Collins will
investigate and report what connection their
sickness has with the fever here.
Ed. Schloes was prostrated to-day with
fever. His case has not been reported, but
there is scarcely a doubt as to the nature of
his illness. He was an active worker during
the epidemic last year, but escaped the
fever. Ed. Moon Is reported delirious,
with but faint hopes of his ultimate recov
ery. W. W. Guy is resting easier to-night,
although he had a slight attack of black
vomit this morning. The weather has
grown warmer. James Scho&ls was stricken
with fever late this afternoon.
Washington, August 10.—Dr. BQlingp,
Vice-President of the National Board of
Health, telegraphed Dr. Jerome Cochrane,
at Memphis, to-day as follows t “ Your ad
vice in the Associated Press dispatches is
noted. This Board has from the commence
ment urged the same advice, through Dr.
Mitchell, and has furnished funds to carry
it out and do the work. The State Board has
legal authority. This board can only give
advice and means, mid this it has done.
When the State Board needs more means it
will doubtless inform us. Continue to urge
the removal of unacclimated people to
camps, and also the isolation of infected
persons in places. Advise directly with the
agents of State and local boards to save
time, as was done by Dr. Mitchell.”
Caibo, August 10.—The quarantine in
spection boat, Vanzandt, was to-day an
chored in the Mississippi, near the head of
Island No. 1, and hereafter all up stream
boats will be inspected there, in acc ordance
with the rules of the National Board of
Health. The inspecting officer is instructed
that in case any steamer refuses to submit
to inspection to telegraph the fact to the
station above in order to prevent landing.
New York, August 10.—There are no
new cases of ^yellow fever.either at the up

Homeless people are camped in the squares

New Haven, Conn., July 28,18TO.—Edi
tor Morning News: After 60joaming for a
time most comfortably in the mountains of
North Georgia, our party concluded to ex
tend their trip to East Tennessee and Vir
ginia. When once on the road, my Innate
love of travel induced me to go farther
was first contemplated.' * Wooed
by a long . cherished desire
to see “ New England at home,” in com
pany with a friend, I made a visit to the
land of “ Yankee notions.” To enjoy a trip
of this character, a person most necessarily
lay aside all peculiar or preconceived notions
of this peculiar people. The mind must be
left free to surprises if one -would properly
relish the enchanting scenery and the unique
expressions of the people of this land. It
wont do even to put your imagination in
harness. Divesting ourselves of whatever
prejudice hitherto existed in our minds, as
far as possible, Dr. Sherbert and I presented
ourselves to the gate keeper at the Grand
Union Depot In New York as seekers for the
New Haven railroad train. After due ex
amination of our scrip, for everybody had
to show their tickets, we were toon seated
in an elegant car, bound for the land of
“ wooden nutmegs.”
The rain dnringithe previous night had
cooled down the temperature of the atmos
phere, refreshed every living thing, and im
parted vigor and life to the almost withered
vegetation. The sun came struggling
through the clouds, and beneath his bright
ening rays landscape and sea presented a
picture of surpassing beauty, as we were
hurled along at the rate of thirty miles an
hour.
The doctor, who has a decided relish for
the ridiculous, even if it is at his own ex
pense, declared that he greatly preferred
the scenery for the ffret mfie or two after
leaving the depot in New York, where he
could look through holes in the wall into
the darkness beyond. Oar way was by a
tunnel beneath the city. He, however, pre
fers darkness to light.
The first stop we made was at Bridgeport,
_ onnecticut. We were here but a few hours,
but enjoyed a ramble through its principal
streets. It is a clean city, and doubtless
does an extensive business, although in re
ply to our questions they complained about
the dullness of trade. Near this place, on
the line of road, is the great manufactory of
the Sharpe Rifle Company. It.is astounding
to learn tne immense numbers of these instru
ments of death that are sold annually. There
is still, it is said, an inu-eased demand for
them. We found the people courteous.
They answered our inquiries, which were*
not a few, very politely, but with a kind of
reserve, as If distrustful of our mission in
their goodly city. They may have felt
abashed to see their own artillery turned
Inst them and plied so vigorously* for if
ankee has any distinction It is for asking
questions. We assured them that we were
but honest pilgrims in this land of strang
ers, seeking information.
The approach of the train, which was to
bear ns farther east, was a great relief tn -
tall native of the soil, whom the doctor had
been probing and SQue^.T.jr unmercifully to
secure information. The countryman was
a true lover of his State, and jealous of her
good name, and was ready ta defend her
reputation. He was enthusiastic over her
resources, over her past achievements, and
her proud position of the present. Her
natural resources abundant, her rivers the
most beautiful, her school facilities the
most ample, her citizens the most intelli
gent. He grew eloquent in his panegyric,
n all of which we seemed intensely inter
ested. Hence it was cruel in the doctor to
stop him in this burst of eloquence and
inquire:
“My friend, is it true that your people,
with all their superior intelligence, did
manufacture nutmegs ont of wood and palm
them off on the public?”
“Well, now, stranger^ that Is an old slan
der upon my native soil, and a thousand
times reported, but it. seems that the ver-.
dancy.of the world—the sublime ignorance
of the masses—will no?. 1 let It die. No, sir;
it is not true. And if it 1 were, the reflection
would be greater npon The credulity of the
world which suffered them to be thus de
ceived, than upon the Ingenuity and skill
that produced them.”
“Ah, Is that soE” said the doctor, as he
removed his eyeglasses from his nose. “But
my friend,” continued" the doctor, “you
cannot deny the fact (for I have been shown
the veritable sacks in which they had been
encased) that your people did manufacture
and export largely canvassed wooden hams.
That is a matter of history, fori have seen it
in print myself.”

cure, or even a relief. In fact, when I began
the use of Cuticura my limb was so raw and
tender that I could not bear my weight on it
without the skin cracking and bleeding, and
was obliged to go about on crutches. 1 com
menced to use the Cuticura in April, and at
onoe realized Its beneficial effects. It gradually
drew the inflammation and humor to the sur
face and, as fast as it appeared, healed it. At
times large quantities would come to the sur
face, causing burning heat, inflammation,
swelling ana itching, which, under tfce con
stant use of Cuticura, would rapidly subside
and heal. Each time these outbreaks grew
less and less severe and finally disappeared,
leaving me perfectly cured. I used the Cuti
cura five months acid took the Resolvent most
of the time, which were the only remedies I
used. I think the Resolvent a very strengthen
ing and purifying medicine to take in such ex
treme cases as mipe, because the disease is so
weakening to the system. Very gratefully
yours, ' Mas. ASA R. BROWN.

SKIN DISEASE.
Great Suflerf ng for Sixteen Year*—A
Wonderful Cure by the Cuti
cura Remedies*
Messrs. Weeks <£ Potter: Gentlemen—Cuti
cura Remedies have done me a power of good.
I have been afflicted with skin disease for six
teen years. Some days it troubled me more
than others, but at night the itching nearly
drove me wild.
I would scratch until the blood would run
down my limbs.
I have had several physicians. Some said
they could cure me, but others said not.
I will say that before I used the Cuticura
Remedies 1 was in a fearful state, and had
given up all hope of ever having any relief.
But,like a drowning man grasping at a straw,
I thought I would try the Cuticura Remeoies,
about which I had read so much.
They have performed a wonderful cure for
me, and of my own free will and accord I re
commend them. Yours truly,
S. A STEELE.

ECZEMA OF THE KAMOS
,etter from
well-known Attorney.
Editor New Orleans Picayune: Sir—Slice the
fall or 1867. up to the last tnree weeks, I have
been troubled with an eruption of the skin,
which the doctors call by various names, but
which is generally known by the name of Ecze
ma or Salt Rheum. The principal place of at
tack was my hands, which at tunes, especially
during the winter time, were very sore.
At times the disease threatened to spread
from my hands and envelop my whole body.
Doctors have been consulted in Philadelphia.
Washington, and in this city, with no more
success than a temporary relief. After con
siderable expense, and much pain and suffer
ing, I had come to the conclusion that I would,
as the saying goes, have to grin and bear it.
About four weeks ago I read in the Picayune
the advertisement of Cuticura, for sale by our
well-known druggist, Mr. Lyons, and resolved
to try it. I purchased a fifty cent box, and be
fore it was half used the disease had com
pletely disappeared, a^d I feel certain that
mine is a permanent cure.
My object in sending yqu this letter is to
make krfown to other sufferers the value of
Curicura. and thus benefit, if ever so little, suf
fering humanity. Yours truly,
P. P. CARROLL,
Attorney and Counsellor at Law.

PRESERVING.
The Government and the “Cen
tal.”—In seeking the co-operation of
commercial bodies throughout the coun
try for the establishment of the “cental’
system after October 1, the New York
Produce Exchange - addressed the differ
ent bureaus of the government at Wash
ington, asking if there exists any suffi
cient reason why the system should not
be- adopted by the government The
subsistence department of the army re
plies that there was no reason why the
should not be generally adopted.
Inquiries were also made as to what
would be the weights of the gallon of
oil, vinegar, molasses and syrups. The
Importers and Grocers’ Board of Trade
will establish the weight of a gallon of
syrups and sugars; the weight of a gal
lon of oil has been established at seven
and one-half pounds, and the principal
grocers and merchants have been asked
to decide upon the weight of a gallon of
vinegar.

THB SITUATION IN BULGARIA.
Constantinople, August 10.—The Rus-

slan Ambassador has
seotations of the ~ "
Well, stranger, I am astonished. I * do
not want to be harsh,< but I don’t know
which to be astounded at the most—your
credulity or your persistency. It is a malic
ious falsehood, coined by an enemy of this
great commonwealth. Her commercial hon
esty will compare with that of any country
upon the globe. Such a foul slander shall
not go unrebuked. You have seen it in
>rint—no doubt you have—and you may
lave seen in print the assertion that the
moon was made of green cheese, but astro
nomical investigation has proved It untrue.”
“I beg pardon,” said the doctor; “I did
not intend to excite your indignation. 1 was
only seeking for the truth. I have heard
swspaper man, and doubtless' will give
your refutation of these foul slanders to the
world, and it will inure greatly to the in
terests of your beautiful State. But say, my
friend, tell me candidly, didn’t your people
invent a machine by which they could cut
shoe-pegs into a certain shape and after
wards sell them for oats? ”
This was too muclx for the now excited
Connecticut man, who had formed his opin
ion of the 8outh from what he read In lying
Radical newspapers, and had never permit
ted himself to doubt their most extravagant
stories of Ku-klnx outrages, bulldozing
and murder. He rose to his feet, and
turning with a countenance shadowed with
rage upon the doctor, who sat in perfect
composure and Innocence of mind, and
only thought his friend had risen for
the purpose of giving better vent to his
eloquence in the defense of his native land.
Hence the doctor was surprised when the
speaker approached him with clenched fist
and exclaimed:
“Stranger, do you intend \o insult me,
sir? Twice I .have met jour Insinuations
against the good name of my State, and
again you have the impudence to reproduce,
a similar libel upon the character of her
people, l tell you once for all, eir, if this
is your purpose in our midst to retail these
miserable slanders, the sooner yon leave
Connecticut the better. Her people are in
telligent, indnstrious and happy.”
Just then the tralnjfpr Boston rolled, up,
and the" doctor,*, after removing his nose-
glasses, exclaimed:
• “Ah, is that so! Then I will leave now.”
And we boarded the train. As we moved
off, with head ont of the car window, the
doctor shouted to his friond: “Good-bye old
fellow. Send ns some shoe-peg oats.”
Out we j<o from the limits of Bridgeport

Capt.. Eads’ scheme of carrying ocean
steamers across the Isthmus of Darien
on baggage cars meets with sharp criti
cism and ridicule wherever it is exam
ined. Says the New York Tima-.
“His plan really looks feasible in many
respects, but he forgets that the reputa
tion o.f the men who handle baggage pn
American railways is'such that, no intel
ligent ship owner .will consent to trust
his vessel in their hands. We know
what would happen tom British steamer
that might incautiously be sent .-over Mr.
Eads’isthmus railway. The expressmen,
after checking the steamer, would drag
her over the platform, banging her
against every available object, and would
finally throw her into the baggage car,
where they would crush her deck in by
piling heavy tea ships upon her. On ar
rival at Panama the unfortunate British
steamer would be pitched out on the
platform, where her unhappy Captain
would find her with a dozen holes stove
in her hull, and with her. masts aqd fun
nel completely carried away. 01 course,
if he had put a nioe leather strap around
her to hold her together, it would have
disappeared during the jonmey, and any
inquiries made of~the expressmen as to.
it would be answered with insults and
bad language. Perhaps it would bfi pos
sible to patch the steamer up sp as to

HUMOR ON A CHILD
Since Birth Cured after Faithful
Medical Treatment Had Failed*
Messrs. Weeks <£ Potter: Gentlemen—My
little son, two years or age, has had a humor
on one side of his face since he was born,
which daring the last four months has spread
over the enure side of the face, the chin, ear
and side of the bead. It must have itched and
irritated him a great deal, as he scratched the
surface all the time, no matter what was ap
plied. I used manv- remedies by advice of
friends and my physician without benefit until
I found Cuticura, which immediately allayed
the itching and inflammation, and entirely
cured him. Respectfully.
