Another Physicians Testimony.

Mr. Fowle-Dear Sir could send you doz-
en- certificates, strong and decisive, of the really
sanative effects Of your valuable Balsam of Wild
Cherry, within the past twelve months, under my
own supervision and direction. Indeed. know
of few persons who have used it, comparatively,
but commend it in the strongest terms. Acase of
Asthma, the severest ever saw. to which was
called NINTH ago. cvinced the superiority of the
Balsam This disease lasted six weeks, and the
dyspaa and suffering was dreadful he sat up ey-
cry night. The gentleman told me to give him
| something to last him home, (2l miles, so that
he might see his wife and child, and die in peace
gave him one bottle of the Balsam, and four
ounces ofsyrup squlis, directing him to take tea
spoonful doses of best Bordeaux Olive Oil, when
the difficulty of breathing was greatest. Next day
| forced his respondent will, and made him take
six bottles Of Wistar's Balsam of Wild Cherry
home with him as present, he having alleged
that he had used SO much expensive medicines 10
no profit. Last week Mr. A. called and express
sed his gratitude to me in the warmest manner,
said the medicine had saved his life, paid his whole
BILL and took six bottles more, and left my office
for home rejoicing.

The CUBAN DIFF1cULTY-The steamer Cher
ohee sailed on Saturday week from New York for
New Orleans, in place of the Crescent City, now
undergoing repairs. The Cherokee is commanded
by Capt. Baxter, of the merchant marine, and has
on board Mr. Smith and the other officers OF the
Crescent City. The insurance companies of New
York declined to issue freight on board of her; and
she has sailed without either freight or the mails,
which the Postmaster at New York, in pursuance
of instructions from Washington, refused to deliv
er to her agents She took but one passenger, a
Frenchman, for Havana, and him they engaged
to carry on free of expenses to New Orleans if
they were not permitted to land him.
A correspondent between the U. S. Consul at
Havana and the late commander of the Crescent
CITY, Just published, shows, says the Baltimore
amicabe settlement of this matter involves the
right of Spain to say whether person, whom it
thinks it has reason to suspect of incendiary OBJ
ects shall be permitted to visit that island at his
pleasure, and in defiance Of the expressed inten
ton of the authorities to exclude him.
We are sure that under similar circumstances
the Government of the United States would do
what the Cuban authorities have done, or falling
to do it, would justly expose itself to public cen
sure.
The Cherokee, however, goes out without mail
or passengers for Havana, and only, as far as it
appears on the face, to carry out Purscr smith
There is no public officer on board the steamer,nor
does she carry the public mail. So she goes out
as private vessel, is private adventure, and so
is in nothing different from any other vessel
1t may be, however, as we see it suggested, that
the owners of the steamer send her out not hoping
even that she will be permitted to land Purser
Smith, but only for the purpose of giving some
grounds 70 claim on the Government for indem
MITIGATION for the loss they may suffer in not being
allowed to carry the mails.

The New Marshal.

When the Wings came into power in the year
1910, they found Democrat in the office of Mar
shall of this district. He was permitted to retain
his office and he always attributed his safety to the
active exertions made i'll his behalf by ALEXANDER
II. II. STUART, the present Secretary of the Inte-
rior.
In 1913 the Wings again came into power and
again found the same Democratic Marshal in of
flee. He was not only retained but was reap
pointed, and again he and the whole community
believed that he was indebted to the influence of
Mr. STUART.
He died in office, and the present administration
has appointed in his stead Mr.. AMBLER, of Win
chester, who is admitted to possess every qualif-
cation for the office and whose application was
warmly seconded by the whole community of
which he is member.
Mr.. AMBLER is Wing, but he is a son-in-law
of Senator Mason, and the Democracy are making
1t matter of vehement assault upon the adminstra-
ton that the appointment has been conferred upon
one who though well qualified to go into office, is
an AWKWARD customer to turn out
The appointments made by the President upon
the nomination of the Secretary of State-but our
Democracy insist upon holding the Secretary of
the Interior alone responsible, and they very char
itably attribute to that officer the lowest and most
unworthy motives for his conduct.
They represent him as bitter and vindictve
partizan striving by every low artice to steal from
the Democracy the legitimate spois of victory.
Those concerned in this worthy employment are
fully appraised Of the facts we have stated, show
ing Mr.. STUART's past conduct in relation to this
very office, and they know some other facts which
we will now state to show how far he is liable to
the charge of bitter parzanship proscriptiveness
The present Chief Clerk in the Department of
the Interior, appointed by Mr.. STUART, is Dem
ocrat The present Commissioner of the Land
Office, also appointed by Mr. STUART, is Demo-
crat, and we defy our Democracy to produce
single instance of such office as either of them,
having ever been given by Democrat to Wing.
Nay more, we defy them to produce an instance
of a Democrat having permitted Wing to remain
in such an office.
These instances which we happen to know, ex-
hibit Mr.. STUART in his true character as man
hating prescription in every form, and one who
while he is firm and decided in his own politics,
never permits himself to forget the consideration
due to the honest opinions of others.
The attacks made upon such a man in relation
to such a subject are simply disgraceful.

New YoRX AID VIRGINIA.-The Richmond
Wing publishes statistical tables showing the ex-
tent of the foreign trade of Virginia, compared
with New York. on which it remarks
The above tables show that Virginia has regu-
larly decreased, while New York has increased.
Thus the import trade of New York has gradually
increased from about $4,000 in 1869, and from
three millions of dollars in 1871, to the enormous
sum of fifty-seven millions of dollars in 1892
While Virginia has fallen off in her import trade,
from two and half millions of dollars in 79ls to
1915, 900 in l629-$550, 000in le32-not great
deal more than the freight of half dozen ships.

Direct Trade with Europe.

Bill is now before the Legislature, on the
proposition of AMBROSE w. THOMPSON, of Phila-
delphia, to establish line Of Ocean Steamers run.
ming between Norfolk, Virginia, and Antwerp, in
Belgium The bill without attracting much no.
tice at the time, passed the Senate shortly before
the adjournment of last Spring, and is now under
discussion in the House of Delegates. 1t proposes
t. advance on the part of the State to A. w
THOMPSON 6, Co., of philadelphia, one million o
dollars on the ''three ifths principle" to furnish
him the means to build, under the supervision Of
the Board of Public Works, the Ocean Steam
ships which when completed are to make semi
monthly trips from the Chesapeake Bay to Ant
werp. These Steamers are to be constantly in
sured, and the State to retain lien upon them for
the 81 100000 advanced for their construction
THOMPSON & Co., are to give personal security
for the payment of six per cent. interest and one
per cent. for the sinking fund required by the Con
stiution making seven per cent, payable semi
annually, on the whole sum advanced, and at the
end Of ten years are to refund the 81 600, GOO to
the State Treasury.
The advocates of the scheme assert that by this
means direct trade will be established between
Virginia, and the whole South, with the Cont
nent of Europe transferring the intermediate costs
and commissions from the factors s, agents of New
York and the North, to the benefit of our Virginia
cities and the South and assuming that the estab
lshment of such trade at this time, by such means,
is necessary to the support and profit OF our pro-
osed system of Internal Improvement.
The opponents of the scheme contend that it is
premature, as providing at great expense vehicle
of trade and commerce before there is sufficient
material of such trade in reach to carry to mar
ket that it should follow, not precede the es-
adjustment of our system Of Internal Improve
ments which is designed to bring the products of
the country to the sea-shore for expectation, and
to carry back to the consumers of the interior, the
foreign goods in exchange for their exports; that the
Ocean line cannot live without the Internal In
proyements (unless the steamers can run about
over the land in search Of freights)-but that the
Internal Improvements can live ,cithod the Ocean
line and grow into strength upon the irland travel
and commerce until the slime is ripe" for direct
trade. The scheme is also denounced as a mere
visionary speculation, and it is nsinuated that it
NAV be something worse.

tS- In 1851 there were 10000 Jews in Jer,l-
salem. This number has lately greatly increased,
aud they are supported by Jews in other
parts Of the world, particularly those in America
and Holland These Jews reside chiefly on the
rugged slope of Mount Zion, over against the tenn
pie. Many of them are supported By annuities,
which they receive from their friends in Europe, tc
whom they have made over their property, with
this stipulation. This money is RENTED to a rich
Jewish merchant at Amsterdam, who is called the
President of the Holy Land, and the average a
mount which he receives may be near .f3,OOO.-
Instead of doing good, it seems to engender strife
and idleness. These Jews still anticipate the
speedy coming of the Messiah.
