Death’s Betrothal.
A few rears afro a New York newspaper
conducted an open discussion upon the
topic: “Is Marriage a Failure?” The
answer is easy and upon the surface Where
there is mutual love and respect, if there is
alee health, marriage is a success. When
health is left out. even the most ardent love
does not count, and marriage is invariably
a failure.
Modern science has cried the warning
no often that all should realize the dangers
of wedlock to people in ill-health. In a
OMr of this kind death lurks on every side
•—hi the kiss of betrothal and the caress of
the honeymoon The man who is suffering
from ill-health is a physical bankrupt, and
has no right to condemn a woman to be hi*
nurse for life and the mother of babes that
inherit his physical weakness. Dr. Pierce’s
Golden Medical Discovery acts directly on
the digestive organism. It makes it strong
and its action perfect. Whi n a man s di
gestion is all right his blood will be pure;
Mreti his blood is pure his nervous system
hill be strong and his health vigorous.
A woman who suffers from weakness and
disease of the delicate organism of her sea
is certain to suffer from general ill-health,
and to be an unhappy, helpless invalid and
a disappointment as a wife. Her children
will be weak, puny and peevish. A happy
home is an impossibility for her until her
health is restored. Dr. Pierce’s Favorite
Prescription cures all troubles of the dis-
tinctly feminine organism. It cures them
speedily, completelv and permanently It
fits for wifehood and motherhood. Both
medicines are sold by all good dealers.
COTTON.
New York, Wednesday,Sept- 14,1898.
Union Recorder:—The cotton
bade remains in an apathetic attitude,
without strong convictions and the
Markets are tkeiefore in a state of in
anition. A lighter movement and con
tinued rainy weather in portions ot the
Atlantic States, caused a covering de
mand on the part of the shorts, which
was met by European selling against
purchases in the Southwest, This
hedging by European shippers shows
that the spinners abroad are not yet
ready to commence buying their antici
pated requirements on the present
basis, but are still waiting for the large
yield as foreshadowed by the estimate
of Mr. Neill in August. Undoubtedly
the continued rains in August and the
opening of September have created a
more conservative viewot the promised
crop from the outlook early in August,
but it is fair to state, that as yet -crop
estimates have not been reduced below
the estimate of consumption for the
past season. Granting the consump
tion of American cotton last season to
have been 1,850,000 bales, the com
mercial crop of 11,200,000 bales left a
surplus of 1,350,000 bales to be tarried
over, in (lie visible or invisible sup
plies. Therefore the spinners feel,
that if the yield this season is only 10,-
000,000 hales they need have no fear
ol any scarcity in the supply, but that
they may contract for the delivery of
their yarns and the manufactures of
their cloths without the least fear of
being caught short with a loss througl
any scarcity in their supply of raw ma
terial.
It is this attitude on their part
which offsets the light receipts, at
lime when they were promised an am
ple cr.wment.of cotton. The mer
chants long since realized the strength
of the position of (lie spinners, provid
ed the South raised another large crop
and predicted the present condition
during the planting season, without
chest upon planters who, having raised
a bumper crop at moderate cost, could j
not restrain themselves from preparing
for another. (Inly climatic influences
were therefore left lo reduce the yield;
(the reduction in the acrengd being
generally thought to he overestimated),
arid as he fere stated, although thej
promise oi August 1st has not been
Bustalned, the crop has not been over
taken by ary disaster comparable with
other si.< rt crop years up to the present
time. The plant however is ill pre
pared to withstand an early I rest and
tlie ultimate yield will tinally he deter
minedly the date ot killing trust.
To attract buyers, either lower
priec6 must rule, or else the yield must
be cut considerably short ot the re
quirements. We expect the early
shipments from the Atlantic Stntes
will contain a large quantity of damp
cotton on account of the continued
ruiny weather.

Hay be /lore Fighting.
The latest advices from Manila in
dicate the probability of mere lighting
in that locality.
The insurgents are in possession of
Luzon Island, except Manila and
Cavite, and A imiral Dewey has asked
for an additional cruiser and battle
ship.
An assembly of Filippinos will con
vene at Lelolles Thursday, September
15th, to decide upon a policy to he
adopted by the insurgents.
Aguinaldo says the insurgents have
been righting tor independence, and
desires to know what America intends
to do. lie says the natives who profess
to favor annexation are insincere.
Aguinaldo further says he is confident
there will he no trouble between the
Filippinos and America, but in reality
they are attempting to interfere with
American control outside of Manila.
Spaniards assert tlgtt Germany will
have a coaling station, and Spain will
retain the remainder of the islands.
Altogether, the situation is not se
rene, and there may be more fighting
before peace is established.

Papers From the East Say Americans
Cannot Surrender Them.
Washington, Sept. 14 The news
papers reaching the state department
in the official mails from the east show
that the almost universal expresssion
in the public press of Tapan is in favor
of the United States holding perma
nently and governing the Philippine
islands. The position taken is that
this will be in the interest of peace and
commerce and good government. The
editorials insist that this is the only
issue ot the matter that will satisfy the
highest interests ot the islands and the
demands ot civilization. The papers
declare that the United States, in as
suming the control of the islands, will
receive the moral support, if not tlie
active co-operation of Japan and Great
Britain.

The Packers at tbe Battle of San

Their Heroic Efforts in Getting
Ammunition and Rations to
the Front Saved tlie Day.
P. E. Butler, of pack-train No. 3,
writing from Santiago, De Cuba, on
July 23rd, says: “We all bad diar
rhoea in more or less violent form, and
when wc landed we had no time to see
a doctor, for it was a ease of rush and
rusli night and day to keep the troops
supplied witli ammunition and rations,
hut thanks to Chamberlain’s Colic,
Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy, we
were able to keep at work and keep
our health; in fact, I sincerely believe
that at one critical time this medicine
was the indirect saviour of our army,
for if tlie packers had been unable to
work there would have been no way of
getting supplies to the front. There
were no roads that a wagon train could
use. My comrade and myself had the
good fortune to lay in a supply of this
medicine for our pack-train before we
left Tampa, and I know in four cases
it absolutely saved lives.
