Browns Essence of Jamaica e.iu-

Browns Essence of jamaica Gin
ger.
Prepared only by Frederick Brown, at his
Drug and Chemical Store, North East
Corner of Fifth and Chestnut
streets, Philadelphia
YNHE Essence is preparation of unusual ex-
Il cellence and ofyaried properties. In all cases
where powerful and safe stimulant is required,
it is unrivaed for efficacy as well as immediate
action. To the traveller and to the family circle
tits invaluable, as few drops diluted in sugar and
water present a safe and agreeable remedy to the
invalid who requires immediate relief, as well as
to the convalescing patient who needs a gentle
tonic. In Southern climate, where the reaxa-
ton of the system so generally induces thirst for
stmuants, it will always be found an excellent
substitute for those tempting beverages which de-
bilitate the stomach and cause morbid condition
of its powers. In dyspepsia, in relaxation of the
bowels, in nausea and sea-sckness it is an active
and safe as well as a pleasant and refreshing re-
medy, and is prescribed by the most eminent of
the medical faculty.

Lake shore RaIIRoad.

The progress IN the construction the rail-
road from Buffalo up the southern shore Of
Lake Erie towards Cleveland has stirred M
the people between Cleveland and the Mauniee
river to measures preparatory TO locating and
commencing it construction A good deal Of
feeling exists between the Norwalk and San
dusky City people, whether its location shall
be for the benefit of the former or latter places
as well as the different towns along both routes.
A convention of delegates from Fremont,
Bellevue, Norwalk and Oberlin, assembled at
Elyria on the 22d inst, and after IN exchange
of views, receiving pledge Of the amount Of
stock from the diferen. towns, adjourned to
meet again at Norwak on Monday next
The people at Maumee City and this town
are not asleep upon this subject Delegates
from both places have been appointed to attend
the convention at Norwalk, who are authorised
to pledge liberal subscribtion to the stock Of
the company, provided thatthe location Of the
road shall be from Fremont through FeFrgs-
burg and Maumee City to Toledo. This loca-
ton is on object of the FIRST importance to the
foot Of the rapids. and its location Of the road
will greatly augment it business, and conse-
quently enhance the value of its stock When
the company is organized and the stock taken,

Does any one suppose that the company viii

ed, that locating the railroad so as to strike

Hard Monev.


limo part ofthis State are the people more
deeply interested in the establishment and
permanency of a safe and abundant paper cur
rency, than in the Lake region. The interest
of commerce require greater facilities, more
promptness in exchange, and more currency,
than any other interests. Nothing even now
is so much complained of 10 seasons Of business
among our commercial men--no priyaiion
more severely feltthan the want Of large cur
rency. Our present facilities, without the most
active exertion upon the part Of Bankers TO
supply the demand, would fail TO answer the
ends Of commerce. The legal money capital
of Ohio employed in Banking. ifincreased ten
or even twenty fold. so that it we're safe. would
be none too great for the interest oftrade.
The Democracy of Ohio propose to substi-
tute for these wants. gold and silver circu-
lation-and their leading editors are now en-
deavoring to prove that this Bill answer every
purpose. Indeed one of them, who has pene-
trated to the lowest depth ofthis stupendous
humbug says that the importations from
California, win soon be equal to the preseE5
paper circulation. That writer has sudied
the history of gold and siver, to little purpose,
to need being told, that the vacuum. IN the
precious metals, occassioned by the long cas-
sation from labor in the mines between 1900
and 1884, is yet less than half supplied
Through the various agencies of abrasion
consumption in the arts, and actual loss the
precious metals fell away during that period /.
below the importations SO as to leave at the
closeof that period vacuum Of more than
81 5o,000,O00 to be supplied. Until this IS
done therefore, We can hardly rely upon gold
and silver as a circulating medium. That this
vacuum, under the influence Of the importa
tions from the Russian and California mines.
viii be supplied in a few years. is no reason
why in our present condition as a nation. We
should abondon our paper currency.
We make this statement, net somuchas an
argument against the present humbug move
Ihent in Ohio, as to show what is the actual
condition of our specie circulation. Those who
advocate hard money should be able at least
to show, that there is gold and silver enough
in circulation, to allow as many dollars to the
individual as in 1890, when gold and silver
alone were employed. Unless this can be
done, and we return to it, what guarantees
are offered that all the business interest Of the
country shall not rapidly melt away Ike snow
before a summer sun For instance How
win it be with theextensive business ofour ca
nails? Where are the means to come from
which shall reward the wheat and corn grow
ers, and pork packers Of the Miami and Wa
bash valleys? We should like to understand
more of this matter Toledo Blade.
