|Epirits OF my fEieia IL. Theyl lsaid O great
Enumber of severe hin8s against the couss
mon enemy; hut hs never lifted his eyes
from the exciting details OF tue ,cha1n-
pioA fghs OF light weights, which ap-
peared 10 afford him intense though tran.
gull satisfaction. When the soldierslgot
out at aFarnboro', 7 observed his eyes
twinkley with special merriment; but. I
could not be certain that he was enjoying
his victory, until the train began to move
again. No sooner, however, had we left
the platform than the Etonian burst into
such series of fits of laughter that they
actually rumpled his neck cloth. He be-
came, in short, to my horror, a boy in
one of its most ordinary and repulsive
forms.
''I think did 'em ell. old stick in uhe
mud?" observed he, when he got O little
breath.
"You deprived four gentlemen of an
hours pleasure" replied I, haughtily.
''Yes, but I deprived myself as we'll,
returned the diminutive, producing from
his pocket briar root pipe. II can't
go without my tobacco myself, without
great inconvenience.
"Whot!" cried I, 'tyou are not going
to smoke, yourself, you young monkey?"
'.Ain't I, thought" interrupted the
Etonian, nodding in an Extensively fa-
miliar manner. eff those fellows had
been civil, and asked my permission to
smoke as well as yours, would have
given them each a better segar than the
Line are accustomed to, I fatter myself,
but since they chose to carry matters
with high hand, you see-puff-puff-
and got hold of the wrong man for that
sort of thing-puff- -puff-wby, they
have to take the consequences"
''But I will not permit you to smoke,
young sir" observed I, Indignantly; "or
if you do (for I shrank from personal
contest with that audacious child,) you
shall pay O couple of sovereigns out of
your own pocket money ut the next sta
tion."
Excuse me-" returned tho Etonian,
blandly; "the bylaw says, If objected
to- now when your friends inquired
whether you would allow them to smoke
Jack (smoke Jack-by the by that's
funny-when your friends-puff, puff
demanded that, you replied-for heard
you-that you had no objection"
And that awful specimen of the genius
boy smoked undeterred, like lime kiln,
until we both got out ut Weymouth;
where, if I had had my way, he should
have been taken off to Portland prison,
and kept there until such time as he
should be no longer I. boy.

CONGRESSIONAL.
WASHINGTON, January 6.
SENATE.

n Williams offered resolution di-
rsctinc the committee on Agriculture to
;Uonire into the expediency of reorgan-
izing the Department of Agriculture SO
as to provide for the election of one
person from each State familiar with
the agricultural wants and interests of
such State to occupy semi-official po-
sition in the Department. Adopted.
Mr.. Sherman presented petition from
citizens of Ohio asking Congress to pass
laws to guard against fraudulent ma
turalization. Referred to the committee
on the Judiciary.
Mr.. Edmunds from the Judiciary COM
mittec, reported the following substi-
tute for the bill introduced BY him on
the 18th of December, to prevent hold
ing of more than one Office at time:
BE 1t enacted, &C., That no person shall
hold nor shall he receive salary or
compensation for performing the duties
of more than one Office or place of trust
or profit under the Constitution or laws
of the United States at the same time,
whether such office or place be civil,
military or naval, and any person hold
ing any such office or place who shall
accept or hold any other Office or place
of trust or profit under the Constitution
or laws shall be deemed to have vacated
the Office or place which he held at the
time of such acceptance.
The Senate took up the bill to pro-
mote commerce between the States, &c,
the Air Line railroad bill, which was
reaG at length.
Mr.. Sherman said that the committee
had not thought it necessary to make q
written report in favor of this bill be-
cause a member of the House from Hi
nois, Mr.. Washburne, had already made
report upon the subject DISCUSSING
fully the legal questions involved. The
bill, he said, proposed the charter OF
three railroads, one from Washington to
New York, one from Washington to
Pittsburgh and one from Washington to
Cincinnati. Mr.. Sherman made an elab-
crate argument in favor of the Air Line
railroad bill, showing, first, the necessi-
ty for new roads, and, second, the right
of Congress to authorize the construc-
ton of them by virtue of its right to
regulate commerce between the States.
On his motion it was then postponed
until Monday next.
The Senate resumed consideration OF
the bill for the relief of enc Murphey,
of Decatur, Ala, which was discussed
without action until 3 o'clock, when the
Senate adjourned.

the rebellion, and how many were SOL
diers in the late rebel army.
Mr.. Stevens, of New Hampshire, from
the COMMITTEE on Naval Affairs, reported
a bill to increase the efficiency of the
department of the navy.
The bill was discussed at length by
Messrs. Stevens, O'Neill aud Kelly in
favor, and by Messrs. Paine, Logan and
Washburne, of Illinois, adversely, the
latter opposing it because it provides
for too many officers-twGlve Medical
Inspectors with the rank, pay and emoi-
uments of Commodore assimilated TO

rank of Captain asSimila:ed to the rank

CONSEQUENCES OF NEGLECT.

Those who indorse the stupid assertion that
"Catarrh will get well of itself, or Is curaDle
by shutting or inhaling the nostrums IN I;I
,se will do we'll to remember that the tocdt ms
ease depends always upon JermeHtdlpe cO'1''
ton Of The blood.
Medical writer's are wont to speak OF Catarrh
A. a simple local Inflammation, and both its i'm
portance and rational treatment are either
wholly ignored or receive but passing notice
from the general practitioner and thus Catarrh
as surely predisposes to Consumption as does
the day precede the night, and Is in fact the
prelude to that disease in eight cases ont of ten.
The disease is everywhere prevalent; people
resort TO such means as always fail, then give
heed to the popular fallacy that il is incurable
and settle into a sort of mental apathy, encOur
aged by the belief that the family physician
knows all that is known on the subject; and
thus matters stand, while the disease progresses
until hope is dead, and life becomes q nOckery
when comes the stereOtyped and hackneyed ad
vice of "a visit to the country "a change of
climate" "a sea voyage" "a return of health
in the spring" etc; but, alas the country re-
ferred to is that which lies beyond the confines
of the fostering grave, and the spring is that
season which blooms eternal when lfe's titful
fever is over.
Let those who doubt this portrayal of Catarrh
question the poor coRsumptive, whose sun of
life is going down at noon, or watch its progress
upon those woo neglect its timely and judicious
treatment A little while and we miss their
coming; youth and health have faded from lips
and cheek, the light from the eye has Como out
the hands are folded peacefully over the still
heart-thsy are gone.

Allegheny Live stock Market.


CATTLE-There was considerable
increase of cattle on sale this week
over last, the sales footing up o97 head,
against some 400 head last week. There
was fair demand and the market ruled
steady at the prices of the previous
week. Prime fat cattle were firmly
held, and no concessions were offered in
order to effect sales, but there was a
wide margin, as sales ranged all the
way from 4 5OaS % per hundred, the
latter price for the best and the former
for the poorest.
SIIEEP-Therc was good supply OF
sheep on sale and prices were lower
The sales foot up 1892 head. Prime
mutton sheep sold at 25a4 Is cwt, but
there were but few of this class on sale.
The general run was poor in quality,
and brought nominal prices, The lower
grades sold at GOAL 80 per head.
HOGS-Thc market continues firm
and prices advanced from those noted
one week ago, but it is hardly probable
that the advance can be sustained on
the receipt of more liberal arrivals
which can be looked for the coming
week. In retail way sales were made
at 10 O0al2 90 gross for good to heavy
average.

NASAL CATARRH
THE SYSTEM.

Catarrh consists of Inflammation beginning
behind and a little above the veil of the palate,
and extending upward into the nose ana air
cavities of the face. 1t creates perpetual de-
sire to swallow. and causes feeling as II some
thing was sticking in the upper and back part
of the throat. AS the disease becomes chronic,
the matter concretes into hardened Jumps, the
matter secreted becomes puriform, the breath
Is offensive and the voice assumes nasal twang,
while on rising in the morning, great effort IS
reouired TO clear the head and throat. There is
often feeling of pressure across the lower part
of the forehead, causing headache, dizziness,
and confusion Of thought and loss Of memory.
The sense of smell becomes impaired, the
ewes are weak and, as the Inflammation extends
M the eustaceian tubes into the internal ear
there is partial deafness, with throbbing, hum.
ming or ringing noise in the ear. In sleep, the
Catarrhal matter Is unconsciously swallowed,
which in time deranges the stomach and i'm
pairs digestion, causing dyspepsia and multi
plicity Of discordant symptoms, which are often
mistaken for other diseases. To the foregoing,
add the fact that every breath OF air drawn iAto
the lungs is drawn over this diseased surface,
fostering with Catarrhal matter, and who can
deny the assertion that to neglect Catarrh Is to
inuite Consumption.
Consumption is the one prevailing disease, at
the present day, with which the young and
middle.aged die. And yet very seldom do the
lungs receive the primary shock. 1t is trst "a
cold in the head" which resolves into Chronic
Catarrh from "hlcn the sueJeCt leeis no al'i, M
until, step by step, it reaches the lungs when
all attempts at cure are little better than blind
experiments.
With every incentive to enjoyment and use
fulness, there are handreds ell around us dying
in the morning of life of Consumption, who can
look back six months year, or longer, as the
case may he, to time when it was nothing but
catarrh' Neglected at time when properly
treated a cure was possible, silently and almost
imperceptibly it has transformed the bright
ruddy features of youth into the dull. wan list
lessness of premature age, as it has drank up
the vitality from the blood and fluids of the
wasted frame, and now when hope is dead, and
the life forces one by one are ebbing away the
mind turns mournfully backward to what
might have BEEN" and tremblingly forward to
what soon must BE-
