MANsFIELD's Dispensatory says that most
OF the Sarsaparilla of the shops is inert and
worthless. DR.. Aver in his writings OH
this drug states that not only is it inert as
found in the shops, but so also are most of
the preparations from it, or bearing its
name. He shows, however, that this fact
arises from the use of worthless varieties,
or unskilful preparations by incompetent
men; that the true Medicinal Sarsaparilla
(Sarza Smilax off, of the tropics, when
freshly gathered in the bud, is one of the
most effcctual alternatives we possess. Com
bined with other substances of great alter
ative power, like Iodine, Stillingia, Dock,
&C., it makes Ayers Comp. Ext. of Sarsp.,
which we have reason to believe is one of
the most effectual remedies for humors,
skin diseases and for purifying the blood
which has ever yet been found by anybody.

Mr.. Hooper, of Mass, from the commit
tee on Ways and Means, reporred bill to

| the government, by authorizing loan of
$400,0O0,000. He moved that the bill be
| printed and recommitted to the committee
Oh Ways and Means, with power to report
| at any time.
Mr.. Cox objected to their reporting at
any time.
Mr.. Hooper said all the loan bills will
expire during the present month. This bill
Is to provide ways and means for the fiscal
year. The bill was then recommitted to the
committee on Ways and Means.

the Senate's bill prohibiting speculation in
coin and bullion.
Mr.. Hooper, of Mass, submitted substi-
tute for the first section of the bill.
Mr.. Ganson, of New York, said this bill
would not strengthen the Government, but
would throw obstacles in the way of ordi-
nary business transactions.
Mr.. Davis, of N. Y, regarded the terms
of the bill unconstitutional, and offered a
proviso that during the operation of this
act, the laws of trade and gravitation shall
be suspended. 4 sS
Mr.. Pendleton, of Ohio, said that instead
of attempting to bolster up redundant
paper currency, the effort should be to re-
duce the amount of paper money afloat,
and not vainly strive to pull down gold.
Mr.. Woodbridge, of Vt, said there was
no warrant for this bill In the Constitution.
or In any law with which he was acqualnt-
ed. The subject was laid aside.
