DEAR SIR: We introduced your Fluid Extract
Buchu" in this country about eight months ago, and
are happy to state that it is meeting with universal
favor We wish to inform you of one instance
(among many where your "Buchu" has worked
wonders. A man in our county, named j. Is. Es-
tell, had been suffering about five years with gray
ell. About six weeks ago he bought of us one bot
tie OF your Buchu," and before he was through
with one bottle he passed gravel that weighs eight
grains, which we now have on exhibition in our
drug store. He says he never will be without the
"Buchu" in his house again. Your preparations
are gaining favor every day. Very respectfully,
yours, &c. ECCLES & IINKLE, Druggists

GREAT ExeITEMENr-ANoTHER HoRsE
RAcE.-Thero was an army of people at
the base ball ground, Saturday evening,
to witness another horse race. A new
horse "a grey) entered the list this time
against Travis p. p. 'Jorden. The
brush was only eighty yards, and the
strange horse beat his competitor easy.
No accident occurred, though spectators
were placed in imminent danger by the
antics of an ungoverable horse mounted
by one Of our stable men. Some time
after the race this animal came tearing
down Hamilton street, at n furious rate.
The rider seemed TO have lost control of
him altogether. On reaching Mill street
he made n dash for the sidewalk in front
of the Postoiice, where there was q large
crowd. He kept this sidewalk to the
end of DR.. Spalding's, when he again
took to the street. 1t was n miracle that
no one was seriously injured. We after
wards learned that the cinch Of the sad
die had broken, and that the rider was
entirely powerless to direct the animal.
The HEAVIEST YET.-A quartz team
with ten yoke of oxen hauled over fifty
two tuns of ore from the South Aurora
to the Stanford mill, on Saturday. The
exact weight of the quartz was los, 300
pounds. This surpasses in gravity any
load yet hauled in Nevada,

" per cent On Tie tariff rates Il imported III
American wooden slips, and % per cent If in
American iron ships. That would apply at
once to Great Britain, France, Spain and
Portugal, because with these governments re-
ciprOcal duties on goods stood on law and not
on treaty. And where treaties on the subject
did exist they could be terminated by notice in
twelve months. The effect would be that the
whole carrying trade would be at once done in
American ships, and every shipyard and roll
ing mill in the country would be set in motion:
AS to the objection that other nations would
retalate, he could only say that he wished to
God they would. The country was suffering
from over trading. If there was a wall of fire
between this. and other nations it would be
be better for the prosperity of the country. 1t
imported more than it exported.
Mr.. Lynch suggested that if that policy was
adopted, American vessels might bring in inn
ports and would have to 20 back in ballast, and
foreign vessels would have to take out our ex-
ports and have to come back to this country in
ballast, thereby doubling the freights and in
Mr.. Butler replied and said that even if
there were force in it, it would be for the bene-
tit OF the shipping, which would have to be
doubled. As rule Great Britain did the car
rying trade OF the world. This proposition of
his, this assertion of Anne .ican ideas, this ex-
hibition of American craftsmanship, this pro-
mitigation OF American power. would take
from Great Britain what that nation had taken
from the United States by her rebel privateers,
SO that there was poetic as well as statesman
like justice in it.
Mr.. Cakins of New York addressed the
House in advocacy of the bill, referring ct,
length to the doings Of the committee and to
the statements made before it, to show that
the true way to build up American navigation
interests was not by buying foreign built ships,
but by encouraging the building of ships at
home.
The morning hour expired while Mr.. Cak-
ings was speaking and the bill went over.
The House then went into committee of the
whole on the Naval appropriation bill. the
question being on an amendment by Mr.. Ste
vens to the first paragraph, adding 33 per cent {.
to the pay of officers.
The amendment was subsequently with
drawn and Mr.. Washburn offered substitute
from the committee covering a scale of pay for
officers and men, and fixing the number of
men, &C., and after long debate the substi-
tute was agree to and reported to the House,
which passed it.

from the vicinity of Washington street came over to
play ball, and after short time came to the house
and asked for water, which on being furnished them
they threw away and demanded more. That being
refused, they threw sods and dit in the fce of Mr.

insanity, and much testimony was introduced tend

is to be held at Friday evening next at half
past o'clock, on which occasion several prom
inent members will address the meeting on
important business topics. We have heard it

try and establish series of social meetings, to
be held once month, on the same plan as is
now practiced in Boston. At these meetings
tits thought some member might deliver an

manufactures in which he was engaged that
would prove highly interesting. We think the
idea an admirable one

WASHINGTON, May I8.-Mr. Sumner offered
resolution requesting the President, if in his
opinion not inconsistent with the public inter-
ests, to communicate to the Senate copies of
any official correspondence relating to the pas
sage of any English or Canadian steamers
through the canal of Sault st. Marie, and call
ing for information concerning the recent cor
respondence of Mr.. Bancroft, United States
Minister at Berlin, in relation to political
questions in Germany, both of which were
adopted.
The Senate bill to enforce the 18th amend
ment was laid aside and the House bill on the
same subject taken up.
The evening session of the Senate was deyOi-
ed to Mr.. Cragin's speech in favor of the bill
prohibiting polygamy in Utah.
HOUSE.
The bill was passed to allow honorably dis
charged soldiers and sailors to enter under the
homestead act quarter sections of land in the
alternate reserved sections of public land along
the lines of railroad and other public works to
which public lands have been granted.
The House then proceeded to the considera-
ton of the bill TO revive the navigation and
commercial interests.
Mr.. Butler of Massachusetts, paid high
compliment to the select committee on the
subject on its interest and assiduity, and agreed
with the bill reported. His only objection to
it was that it did not go far enough. How
should American shipping he protected? All
other interests had received full protection
from Congress All other interests had advo-
Gates on the floor of the House, but comm cree,
the greatest of all interests, "for it lay at the
bottom OF them," had no protection. His prop.
ositlon was to put diferential duties on goods
imported in American bottoms; difference Of
