Tt'PIT FTPS Atlantic command from the north, squadron, under >f Admiral Hob- I er clement, anti especially among- the new. comers, has resulted In the pooh-poohing of so-called ■'alarmist" advice. The new comer is wont to treat the native as a headstrong, but really harmless, child. He does not discern lurking beneath the immobile exterior of the black an in domltable pluck and the passions of a fiend Incarnate. In a word, tlie entire native question has been treated with an indifference almost criminal. FEAR VOLCANO MAY BURST. Never has the spirit of Zulu unrest been more manifest than within the last year. Many 'boers fear that a volcano of rebellion may burst beneath tlie set tlers at any moment, and South Africans are united in the crinion that it will re quire a most conservative handling of the •titration by the British and colon ial government if a catastrophe Is to he a vert ed. Hitherto the greatest safeguard has been the innate and Implacable jealousy of the various tribes, which has rendered any serious combination improbable. Tit's lies tended to 'facilitate the handling of tha whole question, iho two great tribal sections, the Basttto and the Zulu, hating ! each other with the cord'ality of Seminole j and Apache. But recently there viave I been signs of a rapproae.li.ment between | these ns well as the minor tribes. In no | small way due to contact while working .

Some missionaries have done ineffable mischief in promoting the doctrine of "Africa for Africans.” Taking advantage cf their religious calling, which renders them practically Immune from Interfer ence by the authorities, they have intro duced a political aspect, into their move ment. and have fre-quentlv fired the arr.i'oi- tious yearnings of the untutored savage, by telling him that beyond the great wa ters, where they came from, is a coun try where all men. white or black, possess equal privileges. .

THE GOOD THINGS OF EARTH Are Not All Par-Fetched. i That onr American forests abound In , plants, the roots of which possess the most ! valuable medicinal and curative virtues, Is abundantly attested bv scores of the most eminent medical writers and teach ers of our age. Even the untutored Indians had, by Intuition and experi ment, discovered the usefulness of many | native plants before the advent of the white race on this continent. This in- ' formation, crude though It was, imparted freely to the friendlier of the whites, led the latter to continue investigations until to-day we have a rich assortment of most valuable American medicinal roots and herbs. It Is no longer thought necessary that a medicinal agent, in order to bo good and useful, must have been brought across the ocean or that ’’ being carried seven times across the Sahara Desert on the backs of fourteen camols" makes It the more valuable. Dr. Pierce believes that our American forests abound in most valuable medi cinal roots for the cure of most of our obstinate and most fatal diseases, if we would properly investigate them: and, In confirmation of this firm conviction, he points with pride to the almost mar velous cures effected by his "Golden Med- . leal Discovery,” which has proven Itself ’ Sage’s’ Catarrh Remedy should be used to be the most efficient stomach tonic, j to cleanse the nasal passages. Together liver invigorator, heart tonic and rpgu- ! they constitute the most thorough and la tor, and blood cleanser known to med- 1 effective course of treatment which can cult breathing, smothered sensations, palpitation or irregular heart action. Dr. Paine, author of Paine’s Epitomy of Medicine, considered Stone root spec!flu in these cases, and cites bad cases enred by It In his extensive practice. Golden Seal root, another prominent ingredient of Dr. Pierce’s "Discovery," Is also a valuable heart tonic, as is also Black Cherrybark, another ingredient. You will also learn that tho eminent Drs. Halo, Elllngwood. Johnson. Hare, Co« and others recommend Golden Seal root, and several of them Stone root. Queen’s root, Bloodroot and Black Cherrybark for bronchial, throat and lung affec tions attended with hoarseness, persistent cough, night-sweats and kindred symp toms indicating approaching consump tion. All those agents are faithfully and fully represented in Dr. Pierce’s Golden Medical Discovery, and it can be con- fidentallv relied upon to produce their combined curative effects, not only in tho above mentioned affections, but also in all catarrhal diseases, no matter whether affecting the nasal passages or other regions of the body.

HISTORIC BUNKER KILL. The massive granite obelisk that marks j thi tpot of the hottest engagement of the j revolution, Bunker Hill, was erected at I a cost of S100,000, raised by popular s-tlo- j :,£rtptlon. The cornerstone was laid by | General Lafayette on his visit to this J etui ty in 1825. The monument was com-, and on its dedica- l erected in Philadelphia's romantic sec tion, Germantown, where was fought one of the most discussed battles of tho war. The Germantown monument was erect ed by the commonwealth of Pennsyl vania. and cost SI0.CO3. It stands in Vernon park In the very heaTt of that district along which the struggle raged. This was one of the bitterest battles of the war.

Tilt delay resulted in breaking the American line, with a result that Wash ington was forced to retreat in order to save his forces. It was this disaster that put the Brit ish in possession of Philadelphia, and forced the Americans to spend the aw ful winter of 1777-1778 on the bleak heights of Valley Forge.
