The Commissioner of Internal Revenue

The decision of the State Supreme Court
In the.matter of the Georgia Railroad
versus the Railroad Commission was,
perhaps, to have been exieeted. The ease
will now go to the Supreme Court of the

to the scope of the Commission’s powers
may reasonably be expected to lie settled.
Such a settlement at the earliest possible
moment is devoutly to le wished by all
concerned.
The Pennsylvania legislature is inves
tigating the work of the commission aj>-
pointed to build the city hall of Philadel
phia. The investigation brings out the
fact that over $*,000,000 has already been
expended on the building, and when com
pleted the structure will probably cost
$12,000,000. It will take $470,000 worth of
marble alone to complete the tower of Un
building. When the hall is completed it
will cover 63,000 more squar£ feet than the
capitol at Washington.
The London Truth says the price re

day are small compared to those of twenty
years ago, which was the harvest time of
novelists. Anthony Trollope received
over £B,OOO for two of his novels between
1860 and 1865. Wilkie Collins was paid
5,000 guines for “Armadale,?’ before the
work was commenced. The highest price
paid George Eliot for one of her books was
£15,000. aud the least £B,OOO. Miss Brad
don also received high prices for some of
her earlier works. Wilkie Collins proba
bly receives more money for his books
now than any other writer, but has only
produced two novels in five years.
. Berlin is counted the worst drained and
most unwholesome city in Western
Europe. A recent comparison with New
York shows that its mortality is greatly
less than that centre of the most ad
vanced appliances of scientific draining.
Berlin has a population of nearly the same
numlier as New York-1,174,293 to 1,279,-
f>6o in New York. Last year there were
157,924 death in New York and *30,348 in
Berlin. It is impossible to account for
this larger iereentage, us New York has
the advantage of large streams and sea
air to keep it wholesome, while Berlin,
built on a sandy flat, with only the nar
row and sluggish Spree running through
it, has many difficulties to encounter,
naturally and artificially.
Float ing Capita!.
The report from Memphis that wicker
work mattresses by the acre are daily
seen passing that city on the bosom of the
flooded Mississippi lends interest to the
measure before Congress asking for the
ISB3 installment of the great river and har
bor appropriation, designed for the im
provement of the Mississippi.. Four mil
lions have already been spent in carrying
out the plans of the commission, chiefly at
Plum Point and Lake Providence reach,
to which points a select committee ad
vised that the work should be confined
until thoroughly tested by repeated high
waters, etc., and promptly the flood came,
with melancholy result to the commission,
the expectation of the $100,000,000 appro
priation i>eople, and the unfortunate popu
lation of the low grounds of the great val
ley. Engineer Knight reports 1,470 feet of
the mattress and piling swept away from
Plum Point reach, and. as the river is yet
only in a fair way of getting up, it is very
probable that when it subsides echo p ill
have to answer the query, where has gone
the four millions? The commission pro
mised to spend front $50,000,0U0t0 $100,000,-
000 in this kind of work, under the im
pression that it would improve the river
and restore it to navigation by large
steamers, but the signs are not propitious
for further pursuing the theory of the
commission at present, and it would
probably lie better to wait a while until
the water retires, that close inspection
may he able to determine, if any, what
real good has been done.
The people of this country are willing
to improve their rivers and harbors, even
at great cost, but they are not in favor of
emptying their treasury into the Missis
sippi upon an untried theory of convert
ing it to “bread upon the waters;” nor
merely to furnish employment aud sala
ries to a large class who are never so hap
py as when drawing large pay for small
work on government contracts. The
work on the Mississippi, so far, seems to
be about as improving to that stream as
the jetties to some of the harbors, where
millions have been spent to change sand
beds from one point of entrance to another.
\Ve trust, however, that things will not
turn out as bad as they seem—we
should certainly regret to see so well sup
ported a theory for improving the great
river utterly fail. We had become a con
vert to the practicability of restoring it to
its former uses in transportation, and it
would l>e saddening to discover that so
grand and majestic a stream must pass
through the ages of a mighty empire upon
its shores, unstiited to the higher purposes
of navigation. But even here reflective
reason suggests that, after all, things may
turn out alsiut right. Nature neither goes
ahead or behind mankind in her benefits.
If she opens to him the rivers-and har
bors and then fills them up again, It is
more than probable that compensation has
been amply provided—possibly through
man's own invention. Who shall say
how long the world will stand in need of
deep water tor navigating purposes?
Already shallow barges and surface ships
have been invented (the latter not more
wonderful than the steam engine), and
we must not lie surprised if the future
population of the Mississippi valley
esteem the great surface breadth of that
stream as more important to their indus
try and enterprise than its great depth.
The Latest Itadical Dodge.
The action of the House Republicans in
favoring the Reed resolution, providing
for the taking up of the Senate tariff' bill
for the purpose of non-concurring in the
same and referring it to a conference com
mitete, shows the straits to which the
majority lias been brought. The manly
course would be to say to the Senate that
it is the province of the House to origi
nate revenue measures, and that the Sen
ate in framing the bill in question in
fringed on the privileges of the House, and
therefore the latter body will let the bill
quietly slumber.
But the Republicans having failed to
pass a bill reducing taxation, 6ee in re
ferring the Senate bill to a conference
committee a chance to doctor the meas
ure to the satisfaction of the protected
interests and, possibly, delude the people
into a belief that the Republican majority
in the Forty-seventh Congress had met
the public demand in the premises. The
Senate bill has little to commend it to
revenue reformers. Indeed, it is quite
satisfactory to most protectionists, but
does not please the Pennsylvania iron and
steel men or the Ohio wool growers. It is
for the purpose of altering the bill to meet
the views of these discontented interests
and otherwise changing its provisions
that the Reed resolution was proposed.
This resolution is a novel proposition in
that it takes away from the House the
right of choice between concurrence and
non-concurrence in the Senate bill, and
limits that body’s action upon it to non
eoneurrenee, which would send it to a
conference committee. The effect of such
action would be to send a bill based on the
report of a packed commission, as the
Tariff Commission confessedly was, to a
packed conference committee. In other
words, the protectionists were given the
jury, aud are now to be given the court
of review. The claims of the great mass
of tax payers are ignored.
Keifer, Robeson & Cos. may succeed in
this, their latest scheme, but there is con
solation in the thought that the days
of their power are numbered, and' that,
no matter what they may do in their des
perate attempt to delude the people, the
real representatives of the people will re
view their action and yet render justice.
The very fact that the Radical leaders
hug the delusion that the people will be
satisfied with the work of a packed con
ference committee upon this great ques
tion of taxation proves that they realize
the terrible mistake they have* made, and
their desperate endeavor to retrieve it.
The judgment of the people upon the
Forty-seventh Congress has been passed,
and is irrevocable—it is imbecility and
failure throughout its career.
Of the eighty-two screw steamers on the
list of the navy, there is only one first
class vessel, the Tennessee, which can be
called serviceable, and that not for war
purposes. Of the fourteen second-rates,
only seven are capable of making a voy
age with safety; and of the twenty-two
third-rates, only half of them are in actual
service, or capable of any service. Our
iron-clads number thirteen fourth-rate
vessels. The double-turreted monitors,
one of which, the Miantonomah, has been
completed after a term of twelve or fifteen
years, are third and fourth rate vessels,
only fit for harlior defense, if abundantly
equipped with torpedo boats. Three or
four worthless wooden screw iron-faced
ships are on the stocks at the navy yards.
Besides these there are several wooden
sailing vessels. We can intimidate no
civilized nation with our ships, for they
all have formidable navies; but some of
our ships can shell defenseless Indian
villages, as was shown not long ago on
the Alaska coast.
As to the tunnel under the English chan
nel, it was estimated in 1873 that nearly
half a million people yearly crossed be
tween England and France at Dover; that
the number was constantly increasing, and
that if a tunnel were built it would prob
ably be doubled. The idea of such a tun
nel was first broached by M. Mathieu, a
French engineer, who laid the plans for
one before Bonaparte in 1802. Owing to
subsequent disturbances the projector and
his plans were lost sight of. Since then
many plans have been proposed, but to a
Frenchman, M. Thome de Gamond, is
conceded the credit of pushing the oroject
to its present advancement. In 1872 the
present channel company was incorpora
ted, Sit John Hawkshaw, Mr. James Brun
lee and M. Thome de Gamond being
appointed the engineers. It is estimated
that it will take to complete
the work, and that the cost will be
$30,000,000,
The resignation of Senator Davis, of Illi

take place on Saturday next, will enable
the Senate to choose a presiding officer
before adjournment. It is said that Mr.
Davis’ vacation of the office of President
pro tciu. is based upon an implied under
standing that the Democratic attaches of
the Senate will not be disturbed until
December next. This, however, remains
to be seen.

The Republican party is the author of

How to Get Kid of the Surplus.

An ingenious legislator, Representa

joint resolution yesterday, providing that
the surplus money in the National Treasu

for the payment of State debts and school
taxes. Why not go further and divide it
among the people for the redemption of
all mortgaged homes? Why not adopt
communism out and out?
The Man Behind Chandler.
Troy Prete (Pew.),
The probability is that the person who
was behind Mr, Chandler In this Gorringe
business is John Roach, ship builder.
Captain Gorringe was negotiating for the
purchase ol a ship yard, and he was back
ed by a number of capitalists. Afraid of
Inkiness rivalry, Mr. Roach, it is sug
gested, induced the Secretary to annoy
and hamper Captain Gorringe. But he
could not head off the opposition ship
yard. Captain Gorringe has left the navy
and has taken possession of his yard.
The Freight Bate Problem.
Philadelphia fiecord,
Unjust or undue discriminations can le
easily provided against by making it ille.-

different rates for the same service, with
proper penalties for the enforcement of
the rule. That is all that .is wanted. As
a matter of fact, there is no antagonism of

and the people of Pennsylvania, Stat

only result in evil to both the people and

The principal owner of the Northern

COWHIDE!) 11Y A WOMAN.
Two Men who Sent a Comic Valentine
Meet with Painful Retribution.
Cincinnati Special, 31st.
Away back in the West End, on Gest
street, where three or four days ago the
waters of the floods stood three feet deep,
there was a livelv cowhiding late last
night. Mrs. M endel Daemmerling gave
a terrible thrashing to George Meyer and
Henry Mishler, two employes of a distil
lery*, who had each sent her a comic valen
tine, and on which were inscribed in their
own handwriting some obscene sentences
in the German language. It was the
writing that was offensive, and by that
Mrs. Daemmerling Identified the senders.
Her whip was a drayman’s black snake.
Her first victim was Meyer, whom she
held and whipped till he yelled for mercy,
while Mishler looked on and laughed.
Once through with Meyer the woman laid
her formidable grasp upon Mishler ami
dealt him a double dose, while the people
looked on, cheered and laughed. Meyer
was too badly cut up to enjoy the enter
tainment. Mrs. Daemmerling seasoned
her blows with a choice admixture of half
German, half broken English, exclama
tions, and wound up the business with
the remark addressed to the spectators:
“I gesb dem fellers be too schmard to send
me some more valentines already.”

I have been attlicteil for twerfty years with
an obstinate skiu disease, called .by some M.
l).’s Psoriasis, and others Leprosy, commenc
ing on ray scalp, ami, in spile of all 1 coulil do,
with the help of the most skillful doctors, it
slowly but surely extended, until a year ago
this winter it covered my entire person in
form of drv scales. For the last three years I
have been unable to do any lalior, aud suffer
ing intensely all the time. Every* morning
there could be nearly a dustpanful of scales
taken from the sheet of my bed, some of them
half as large as the envelope containing this
letter. In the latter part of winter ray skin
commenced cracking open. 1 tried every
thing almost that could be tboughtof, without
anv relief. The 12th of June I started West, iu
hopes I could reach the Hot Springs. I reached
Detroit, and was so low I thought I should
have to go to the hospital, but finally I got as
far as Lansing, Mich., where 1 had a sister
living. One Dr. treated me about two
weeks, but did me no good. All thought 1 had
hut a short time to live. I earnestly prayed
to die. Cracked through the skin all
over my back, across my ribs; arms, hands,
limbs, feet badly swollen;‘toe-nails came off;
finger-nails dead and hard as boiu>; hair dead,
dry, and lifeless as old straw. (Jli, my God!
how I did suffer. My sister, Sirs. K. 11. Davis,
had a small part of a box of CUTICUKA in

UNIVERSAL TESTIMONY
—IN FAVOR OF—
“KIDNEY-WORT.”
THE GREAT SPECIFIC FOR KIDNEY DIS
EASE, LI VER TROUBLES, MALARIA,
CONSTIPATION, PILES, LADIES’
WEAKNESSES, AND
RHEUMATISM.
Terrible Khlney Disease.
“Mrs. Hodges says I cannot too highly praise
Kidney-Wort,” says Mr. Sam. Hodges, Wi 1 -
liamstown, W. Va. “It cured my terrible
kidney disease. My wife bad to turn me over
in the bed, before using it.”
Severe Kidney Disease.
“I was entirely cured,” recently said Mr. N.
Burdick, of the Chicopee Box Cos., Spring
field, Mass., “of severekidney disease by using
Kidney-Wort.”
Could Not Work Before.
“I’ve had no pains since I was cared by Kid
nev-Wort,” said Mr. Jas. C. Hunt, of the
Chicopee Box Cos., Springfield, Mass. “I
couldn’t work before using it, so great were
my kidney difficulties.”
Ki<lnev and Liver Troubles.
“Several doctors failed,” writes N. Steepy.
Alleghany City, Pa., “but Kidney-Wort cured
my kiduev and liver troubles of two years
standing.”
Kidney Complaint and Diabetes.
“For six years,” says Engineer W. H.
Thompson, of C. M. & St. Paul R. It. “I had
kidney complaints hnd diabetes. Kidney-
Wort has entirely cured me.”
It Has Done Wonders.
“I can recommend Kidney-Wort to all the
world,” writes.l. K. Bingamon, Crestline, O.
“It has done for me and many others,
troubled with kidney and liver disorders.”
Constipation, Piles and Kheumatlsin.
1 have found in my practice that Constipa
tion and Piles in all forms, as well as Rheu
matic affections yield readily to Kidney-
Wort.—Philip C. Ballon, M.D., Mookton, \ t.
Piles 16 Years.,
“Kidney-Wort is a medicine of priceless
value. 1 had Piles for lfi consecutive years.
It cured me. r ’-rNelson Fairchilds, St. Albans,
Vt.
Gravel, Permaeent Relief.
“I have used Kidney-Wort for gravel,” re
cently wrote Jas. F. Reed, of North Acton, Me.,
“and it gave me permanent relief.”
30 Years Kidney Disease.
“I had kidney disease for 20 years.” vrr'..es
C. P. Brown, Westport, N. Y. “I could scarce
ly walk and could do no work. I devoutly
thank God that Kidney-Wort has entirely
cured me.”
A Great Blessing for Rheumatism.
“It is, thanks to kind Providence, a great
temporal blessing,” truly remarks Win.
Ellis, of Evans, Col. The gentleman referred
to Kidney-Wort, and its magical curative pro
perties in cases of rheumatism and kidney
trouble.
Rheumatism on the Bench.
A priceless jewel. J. G. Jewell, a Judge at
Woodbury, Vt./says: “Kidney-Wort cured
my rheumatism. Nothing else would do it."
Piles.
From Nantucket, Mass., Mr. Win. H. Chad
wick writes: “Kidney-Wort works promptly
and efficiently in cases of Piles as well as
Kidney troubles. It’s a most excelient.medi
cine.”
Ladies’ (Troubles.
“No medicine helped my three years pecu
liar troubles," says Mrs. 11. Lamoraux, of Isle
La Motte, Vt., “except Kidney-Wort. It
cured me, and many of my friends, too.”
Over 30 Years,
“I had kidney and other troubles over 30
years,” writes Mrs. J. T. Galloway, Elk Flat,
Oregon, “Nothing helped me but Kidney-
Wort. It will effect a permanent cure.”
A Physician's Wife’s Troubles.”
“Domestic remedies and prescription, by
myself (a practicing physician) and other
doctors only palliated my wife’s chronic, two
years standing, inflammation of the bladder.
Kidney-Wort, however, cured her," These
are extracts from a letter of Dr. C. M. Sum
merlin, of Sun Hill, Washington county, Ga.
Settled Constipation,
“I have had kidney disease for 80 years,”
writes Mrs. Sarah Phillips, of Frankfort, N.
Y., near Utica. “Kidney-Wort has allayed
all mv pains and cured my settled constipa
tion.’'
Lady Discharges Two Servants.
“I have not been able to do my housework
for many years until lately,” writes Mrs.
M. P. Morse, of Hyde Park. Minn. “I’ve now
surprised all my friends by discharging my
two servants and doing their work. Kidney-
Wort was the cause. It cured me and I’m
strong.”

TWO NUISANCES.
One of Them Beyond the Law—How
the Other May be Abated.
You meet it almost everywhere—on the
cars, on the boats, in the next room to your
own at the hotels, and jutt in front of the
Orator of the Day at the Fourth of July cele
brations—that crying baby. It never grows
up. It never dies, it never takes calmer and
more rational views of life—that obstreper
ous baby. It despises the Golden Rule as it
does the comfort of people older, and possibly
wiser, than itself. It is the way of youth.
Yet the man with a bad cough is scarcely
more endurable. He hacks, hawks and ex--
pectorates until we all regret that he had not
been sentenced in his infancy to solitary con
finement for life. Still—putting out of mind
the disagreeable conditions under which he is
compelled to appear—he may be in every way
an estimable citizen, deserving neither death
nor bonds. For the time being, however, he
is a most objectionable person.
What the poor fellow needs is one of BEN
SON’S CAPCINE POROUS PLASTERS
placed directly over his chest bone, where it
would immediately act as a counter-irritant
or local stimulant, aud also another plaster
between his shoulders, in ease the cough Is
stubborn. The Capeine Plasters are an in
finite improvement upon the old style plasters
for tiiis distressing, aud often serious, trouble.
By virtue of certain chemical and medicinal
qualities contained in no others, they soothe
the disordered organs, and abate at once tlie
racking paroxysms of coughing.
Prepared upon the most recent and ad
vanced discoveries in medicine, BENSON’S
CAPCINE POROUS PLASTERS surpass all
competitors as an external remedy.
Bo on your guard against imitations. The
word CAPCINE is cut in the centre of the
genuine. Price 25 cents.

ftail I Few Slrf Days Aio
That our Sesqui-Centennial celebration painted Savannah’s rapid progress
from the hour when Oglethorpe first planted the banner of civilization
to the present hour of her pre-eminent glory among the sister
hood of cities of the South. On that day of
nudying memory the
DRY ROODS TRADE OF SAVANNAH
Was first established, and Tomochichi and the Yamaeraw Indians traded the fruits of indus
trious chase in exchange for Georgia’s first importation of
Fashionable Dry Goods.
No newspaper advertisement heralded to the red men the list of bargains, but from mouth
to mouth the rumor flew that Yamaeraw Bluff was the scene of a mighty sale These
grand bargains were dispensed by two of Oglethorpe s followers.
One Named GRAY .
And One Called O'BRIEN.
THAT WAS 150 YEARS AGO, BUT
Gray & O’Brien’s Prices
have kept pace with Georgia’s march of improvement, and the proof is briefly offered in this
