SIn: In conjunction with several other members

since. q certificate Of the good qualitv Of your
Mineral Water. With "a commendable jealousy Of
your own works, lest confidence in their abiding
good reputation should have led to neglect you have
again applied To me for an analysis Of several spec
mems of Mineral Water. purporting to have been
made after different methods OF by different persons,
the particulars of which were not furnished the only
distinction apparent being in the color Of the bottles.
have examined the several specimens submitted
and find as follows: The water in the aohite glass
bottles is free from all impurities that in the gy1en
bottles contains sensible quantity OF phuric acid,
which is evident to the smell and taste, well as to
the proper chenical tests. From recent nspec-
ton OF your process, was led to the conviction that
the only impurities which could possibly gain access
to the water were lead and sulphurc acid. Of lead
find no traces whatevtr in any Of the bottles the
amount Of sulphuric acid present in the green bottles
though small is objectionable, and mus, be regarded
as an impuity. The Mineral Water Processes to be
! free from all such alnxures. | therefore certify
that The Mineral Water contained in the white bot
ties sent to me was pure, and in my opinion salrta
ry, while that in the green bottles impure am
| unfit for common beverage.

"REprAL IS THE WORD" Say many of our
Exchanges, in reference to the new Post
Office law by which postage is again charged
upon newspapers carried in the mails less
than 80 miles. The spread of intelligence
was certainly not the prominent object in
the passage ofthat law. But some postage
should be charged on newspapers when carri-
ed in the mails, and if jus, charge was
made for the service performed, we would
have no cause of complaint. But
there is no justice in changing the same
amount for carrying papers five miles
as for five hundred, or if out of the
state as much for fifty miles as for two
thousand. 1t gives the city press an undue
advantage, and should not be silently premt.

AN ITEM IN THE H1sroRY OF THE WAR;

AN ITEM IN THE History OF THE WAR;
In 1885, Santa Anna was acting President
of Mexico, and Military Dictator, and CON-
mander-in- chief Of the armies. In the latter
capacity he met the Texan army at San ia
cinio, where he was overthrown, and him
self and army made captives This resulted
in a treaty, of which the preamble and 4,h
article ran as follows:-- % ,
"Antonia Lopez de Santa Anna, general
in chief of the army of operations, President
Of the Republic of Merico, before the gov.
ernment established in Texas selemnly
pledges himself to fulfill the stipulations
contained in the following articles. as far as
concerns himself. y
"ART 4. A treaty ofcommerce, amity and
limits will be established between Mexico
and Texas, the territory ofae latter not to
.ertend beyond the Rio Brapo del Norte.
In consequence Of this stipulation, Santa
Anna and his army were transported back
TO 'heir country, only to pledge themselves
to re-conquer Texas, and 10 plunge their
country in war by attacking the United
Slates' forces on the north of that river,
which they stipulated should be the northern
boundary of Mexico. Strange to say, this
faithless villainy has been countenanced,
not only in partizan press, but on the floor
of Congress.
FOREIGN TRADE.-The New York Journal
of Commerce states that immense orders
for -four have been sent by telegraph to Buff
falo within the last week. One house alone,
supposed TO be connected with the Roth.
schlds, has RENTED $50,000 TO that city
for the purpose. Indeed, more money went
up by Livingston and Welch's Express from
New York than ever was forwarded at
any one time before, chiefly for account Of
-four spectators. t........ ..

THE PopE ON BRoTHERLY KINDNESS.
Previous to the receipt of the Pope's Let
ter TO the Archbshops, Bishops, &c. on the
famine in Ireland, Catholic liber ality on this
continent was very we'll proved and tested.
The Pope says(we quote the Paris Unipers)
"You may, besides, recall to mind the words
of ST. Ambrose Bishop of Milan'--The beau
ty of fwealtb is not to reside in the money
bags ofthe rich, but 10 serve as an aliment to
the poor; treasures shine with greater bril-
liancy when distributed TO the in6rm and in
digen,; Christians ought to know that they
should employ money TO seek, not what is
ofthem.' For these motives, and others that
we have recalled to your benevolent minds,
we firmly hope that you will afford powerful
help 10 the poor"

Gardiner, G G. Brown, G.. H. Ruggles, and F. q.
Jewett, by the democracy, and Fred. Whittlesey,

by the wings. The adoption of the principle of
popular elections in the choice of the judiciary
in the leading State in the Union, cannot but
hasten the extension of the principle throughout
the Union. The law hitherto has not been char
ged with liberal tendencies. The Judges chosen
by Legislative caucuse have been, no matter what
the party, eminensly conservative even of estab.
iished abuses, and an infusion Of pop uar inAu-
ence will prove great blessing to the seekers
after equal and exact justice.

"Here we see landing on our piers thous-
ands pitabie creatures, who have no choice
but TO get into cellars long since condemed
as unfit for habitation, and into garrets alrea-
dy over crowded. Disease is at work there,
and fastens, as If insiinciively, upon their
poor frames which are predisposed to its
deadly effects. When fever has marked its
own, we remove the victims TO Temporary
sheds, for the chance of relefor death. On
their first landing, we know thatafbey must
pine in comparative hunger, though we re-
eve them; we know many of them must die,
because they must resort for shelter 10 pla-
ces saturated with filth and foul air, and dis
eased fellow sufferers. Our police officers
cannot drive them out, because there are
no hospitals and prisons that wonld hold a
ti,he of them. Their begging in the streets,
and the disgusting exhibition they make with
sguald, perjshing children in their arms, can
not be suppressed--for the same reason. A
prison would be a paradise 10 them--a luxury
we cannot give them; and hence the sanatory
