tanned by peculiar process in the distillation of
the tar, by which its highest medical properties
are retained
1t is the only safeguard and reliable remedy

MEssRs. j. WATSON x Son.
In the destructive fire that occurred at Ninth and
Wallace streets, on Tuesday noon, we had one of
your celebrated Fire-Proof Safes. 1t was exposed
to an intense heat for about twenty-fOur hours. The
building was large and filed with much combustible
material. On opening the safe we found all our
books and valuable papers completely preserved and
as bright and fresh as when put in the safe. The
heat-resisting qualities of your safes are really
wonderful and we think great advantage is derived
from your inside door Improvement We shall want
another of your safes.

PAAAouAr.-Accounts Of the military SIT
uation and condition of affairs in this coun-
Try are contradictory. The ALLIES claim that
success has perched upon their banners,
and that Lopez has fed to Bolivia.
Tho Paraguayan accounts tell very DIFF
fereut story. They state that the army of
Lopez, after the battle at Yllleta and Angos-
tura, retired In good order, and that II Is still
capable Of a formidable resistance. The
probabilities are that neither party Is as well
Oh as represented.

The Queens speech.

This non-commlttal document OF the new
Gladstone Mlnlstry, which Is said to
emanate from the throne, was delivered the
other day In Parliament by proxy. The
chief interest that we feel In 1t on this side
Of the water Is Its reference to the outstand-
Ing questions between this country and
Great Britain. Her Majesty expresses the
hope that the pending negotiations-referring
70 the Gladstone and johnson treaty about the
Alabama claims-will be adjusted, aud that
thus every obstacle will be removed, SO that
perfect friendship may exist between the two
countries. The Queen must know, or
whether she does or not the Ministry must
know, that no settlement can be effected
upon the basis Of this Gladstone and John
son protocol or treaty. It Is not worth the
paper 1t Is written upon, and the labor spent
In these negotiations is about the same as
wasted. II the Queen and her Ministers are
anxious for q settlement, there must be on
their part some concessions or there will be
no adjustment. This Is the temper Of the
American people at this time.

THE CROWD CHANGHs.

Last week there was large gathering OF
men here interested in legislation. Most Of
them have gone home disappointed. This
week we have among us almost as large a
gathering Of politicians, pure and simple,
who are looking after the formation of the
Cabinet, and arranging their cards to play
hands In the game of the distribution Of Of
fee. None of them appear much elated with
the prospect before them. These are emil
nently days OF disconsolation to would.be
outside managers Of the incoming Admins
tratlon. They appreciate the almost classic
beauty Of the sentiment of the (modern)
Psalmist who wrote-"Blessed are those who
