ANEcDoTE OF Mr.. CnoATE.-At the trial of the
salvage case of the bark Missouri ut Boston, last
week, the case in which part Of the cargo was
embezzled by the masteas Of the two vessels on the
coast of Sumatra, one of the masters was examin-
ed as witness, and disclosed the plan Of cmbez-
element, and stated the inducements that were Of
fered tc him by the other master. lie said that he
objected at first, and told his comrade they would
be found out and convicted, but was oyerborne by
the assurances given him. Mr.. Choate cross-eX-
amined him strictly and particularly as to what
the inducements and assurances were The wit
ness had the appearance Of holding back a little
but at last he said: WELL sir he told me that II
we were found out, he could get Mr. Choate to de-
fend u.s. and he would get off if zoe toeye cauoht
,eih the money IN our boots" 1t was not five min
utes nor ten minutes that it required to bring the
audience back to II sober countenance. The coun.
sci on the other side paid tribute, in his closing
argument to the genius of Mr. Choate, the fame Of
which extending to the antipodes, was relied upon
as stronger than the law and the ovidenco.--N T..

THE ORIGIN OF KN0W-NoTHINGIsM--
ITS PROSPECTS IN THE SOUTH.

Long before the idea of Nnow-N othingism Ind
taken root in the United States it was proclaimed
and acted upon by the celebrated CABRERA, who mas
made 1t the ladder by which he has climbed to tho
supreme power in Guatemala. He was some year
since proclaimed perpetual president with power
to nominate his successor, and that successOrship
has Just been made hereditary in his family.
Carera is an Indian by birth--an unquestion-
able Native American. Twenty years ago he was
an iterate pig drover, unable to read or 'rrlte.-
Guatemala separated quietly from the Spanish rule
about 1890. A constitution was established on the
model of that Of the United Slstes, by which that
province. and its neighbors of Central America,
united in federal republic, as they had formerly
been united under a Spanish vicerOy. The admin
stration remained for several years in the hands Of
I, few Spaniards and white Creoes, men Of educa-
ton, and theortical republicans But the innova
tions which they introduced, especially the aboli
ton of converts and suppression Of tythes, were
very unsatisfactory to the priests, who persuaded
the Indians forming the great mass Of the popula-
ton that the cholera which prevailed in the year
1887 ha! been caused by their rulers. who, IN the
hope to reduce their numbers, had poisoned the
waters. This gave occasion to 0rebelhon, IN when
Carera soon became Il leader. At length he enter
ed the city of Guatemala at the head of his Indian
hordes, his banner bearing Deaths Head and
cross bones with the inscription, Death to whites
Liberals and Foreigners"
The clergy Immediately sought to use hlm--as
it is said the Shareholders mean TO use our Know
Nohings; and for this purpose they aided him in
oycrurning the old government, and establishing
his own dcspotic power in place of it. But though
they have largely ayacl themselves of his assist
ancc to destroy the enemies Of the church, they
have found him person not to be trited with, and
have at times been obliged to bow to his superior
will. He is IL man, of genius, no doubt, and we
question very much if our North American Know
Nothings will produce any thing ike his equal un-

The above columns show the articles in which
the North and the South respectively excel each
other and it now remains to estimate the money
value of these articles in order to show definite
ly the relation in which the two sections stand to
each other as regards agricultural productions.
In fixing the prices of articles We believe we have
erred in favor of the South. For instance we
have placed Indian corn above its present market
price and wheat below it. We have placed hay
at a much lower figure than the retail price in this
city, while cotton and Tobacco are valued at the
current average rates. AS we show II balance
against the South, we can afford and choose to be
generous. If we have erred in assigning prices
to other articles we have still studiously given
the advantage to the South. The following table,

A wri ter in The 81. Louis Inteligencer saws
there are ten negroes taken from Missouri now to
one that was spirited away" before the passage of
Douglass Nebraska bill. He also states that there
is just enough Slavery in the State to prevent the
white mechanics and aborers fir m coming in and
settling, and not sufficient to do thousandth part
of the work which ought to be done in the State,
He proposes, as a remedy, that Slavery be either
abolished altogether. or that the African Slave
trade be opened, and by that means obtain a plen-
tiful supply. The better way is to abolish Slavery
at once and forever. The State would be worth
more by far, the day that course should be decided
on, than it now is.-Tribune.

The above table presents the aggregate pro
duets of the North and South so far as the Cen
sus reports them. 1t will be perceived that in
some articles there is large excess of northern
aud in others of southern produce. For instance,
the North produces nearly all the lIay-the South
all the Cotton, and nearly all the Tobacco. Be

HE CHLOhIDE OE OOHD
For Primary Syphilis. How long have the
medical profession tried in vain to discover some
the-reputical agent that could be relied upon 10
cure disease more to be dreaded than all others
combined: Some Quack Doctors advertise TO cure
venereal diseases without the use OF mercury
But their statements are false. We have taken
pains to collect the receipts of some who make
great noise and we find that they use the To-
dine of Mercury for everything, whether 1t is
proper or not, and since we find them misTepre-
senting in this particular, we have reason to sus-
pect them and I'D Onne genus in all their pre-
tensions.
Gentlemen, there never was a remedy capable
of curing the disease without mercury, until the
discovery of the Chloride of Gold, and We submit
it to the test, having thoroughly tried it, and
know it to possess all the qualities attributed to it.
DIR. Christian says:-The Chloride of Gold is
capable of curing Syphalis under all its forms,
and that in its general operations on the system,
it possesses many advantages over mercury. 1t
is efficaciOus, yet gentle. ltmay be administered
with perfect safety at all seasons of the year, and
under any complication of the disease. Persons
of either sex may be put upOnit with equal safe
ty, the only caution enjoneG is strict temperance
In other respects the patient IS not required 10
change his mode of living.
DR.. Samuel L. Mitchell, the distinguished sur
geon of New York, speaks III the following words:
The Chloride of Gold possesses admirable viz
tues against Syphalis. The patient gets we'll un-
der the operation of the medicine, with lncom-
parably less inconvenience, without the hazard
of a sore mouth or salvation, and with very ut
tie wear and tear of the constitution. | consider
the introduction of this preparation in common
USE as one of the greatest improvements in mod
ern medicine, and l wish it was already as uni
versa as the maIady it cures.
Other distinguished members of the medical
profession have given testimony of the great val
ue of the remedy, the statements of whom we
have in our possession.
Gentlemen we shall be glad to see you at any
time-we are always prepared to attend to your
wants.
The above remedy will be sent to any persons
address who sends the price of the medicine

To DR.. L. J. CzAPKAY, San Francisco.

Dear Sir:-Before having made application to
you, l had called upon several physicians, from
whom | obtained but little satisfaction. [ was
told by one that my disease was incurable, and
that the headache, dizziness, nervousness, timid-
ty, selfdistrust, loss of memory love of solitude,
wanderings Of my mind, and sometimes partial
insanity, were evidences of organic disease of
the brain, for which medicine would be of lite
service. Having brought on three symptoms by
my own folly, was almost frantic with despair
when | saw your advertisement and called upon
you. How great has been my relief all the above
symptoms have been relieved, besides which l
have recovered my bodily health. Believing that
there are many suffering in the same manner, you
have my permission to publish This letter, and
can refer any one to me for confirmation.
