THE TREASURY TABLE.

The w. Globe of the 18th, repubishcs the " Com
parative Table, showing the and rates of du-
ties according to the existing rates. and as modified
by the act of July 14th 1882; calculated upon the
mporations of the year ending Both September
1S30"-The Globe remarks, that {" there were some
errors in the comparative table, &c. which was fur
nshed us by the Register of the Treasury We
re-publsh the whole statement now corrected i'm
the Registers Office, and have doubt that il may
be considered perfectly accurate"
We hasten TO note the principal errors which are
here corrected, i'll the Table, that we published in
our last.
In the article of bomboznes, the rate of duty un-
der the of 80, ought to have heen 10 instead of
% per cent.-malling the amount of duty s $3.50,
instead of S,i72
Cottons, white and printed, valued at 80 cents per
square yard ought to have been 30 instead of % per
cent-making the amount of duty on that article,
2,260,5, instead Of 1,45i,210, in the other ta-
bic.
HAIR cloth and hair sedting--15 instead of 30 per
cent rate-and making the amount of duty $500,
instead of 1900.
Castor Od-20 instead of % per cent.-amount-
ing to s $500, instead of 5000.
With these corrections, the column of the amount
Of duties under the tariff of 80, foots up with
To- ILL., l02-insiead of 1882 694 as in the recent
~ Published table.
The tChole result is thus summed IN:

been sustained BY numerous individuals in this

and that the citizens in our village have, in
comparison, suffered but very little WREN
compared with the irresistible fury with which
other places have been visited BY the overflow

but FIVE miles above this place, opposite Barn

Experienced by various individuals. A saw

COUGH proceeds from various causes, but
whatever may be its origin, it should always,
in northern latitudes receive the speedy atten-
ton of the person who is suffering under il.
BY neglect cough, which could have been
removed in few days, may become disease
of very serious nature.
When cough appears never neglect it. In
the early stage, slight fever and other inham-
matory symptoms are frequently its attendants.
In this state of cold, many use heating REM
Iedes-They should never be applied during
the prevalence of inflammatory action. There
fore opium--paregoric and all preparations
with Laudanum or opiumshould be prohibited
Cough preparations are plentifully distributed
Through our country--but many of them are
objectionable because of tine stimuants they
contain. Some of them may be very proper
and useful in chronic cough, but should not b,
tasted while an inhammatory condition prevail.
they then do mischief, and hurry the person
Unto consumption.
! This cough syrup has no stimulant ingre
dients. 1t will be useful in all the stages o
cough while inhammatory action prevails, nnt
Twill in any case lessen the danger of inhamma
Ition of the lungs--and in many cases soon pro
,duce complete cure. ~
