Almost nine-tenths of our people suffer from
nervous exhaustion, and are, therefore, liable to
its concomitant evils Of mental depression, con-
fused ideas, softening of the brain, insanity, and
complete breaking down of the general health.
Thousands are suffering to-day with broken
down nervous systems, and, unfortunately, to-
bacco, alcohol, late hours, o%ver-work, (mental
and physicaD, are causing diseases of the ner-
vous system to increase at fearful ratio.
The symptoms to which diseases of the ner-
vous system give rise, may be stated as follows:
A dull, heavy feeling in the head, sometimes
more or less severe pain or headache; Periodical
Headache, Dizziness, Noises or Ringing in the
Head; Confusion Of Ideas; Temporary Loss of
Memory; Detection of Spirits; Starting during
Sleep; Bad Dreams; Hesitation in Answering
questions; Dizziness of Hearing; Twitching of the
face and arms, &c., which, if not promptly treat
ed, lead to Paralysis, Delirum Insanity, Impo-
tency, Apoplexy, &c., sc.

"The life of the flesh is in the Blood" is q
Scriptural maxim that science proves to be true.
The people talk ofhad blood, as thccause Of ma
ny diseases, and like many popular opinions
this of bad blood is founded in truth.
The symptoms of bad blood are usually quite
plain-bad Digcstion-causcs imperfect uutri-
ton, and consequently the circulation is feeble,
the soft tissues loose their tone aud elasticity,
and the tongue becomes pale, broad, and fire.

condition soon shows itself in roughucss of the
skin, then in ERCPTGvE and LUCRATIVE diseases,
and when long continued, results in serious le-
sion Of the Brain, Liver, Lungs, or urinary APP
p]aratus. Much, very much, suiferingis caus-
ed by impure blood. 1t is estimated by some
that one-itth Of the human family are effected
with Scrofula in some form.
When the Blood is pure, You are not so liable
to any disease. Many impurities of the Blood
arise from impure diseases Oflargc cities. Erad-
icate every impurity from the fountain of life,
and good spirits, fair skin and vital strength

N. Y. MONEY MARKET YESTERDAY.

From The ~. Y. Herald.
'The Gold Room was greatly excited to-day over
the European war news, and as the drift OF specu-
lati0n is in favor OF a lower premium, COmmensu-
rately with the success OF the Prussian element Of
the great contest, the report OF another Prussian
victory, received by the cable to-day, started a
further downward movement, the extremes to-day
being l1S and 115%. Moreover, the course Of the
market was characterized by few of the
traditional reactions which SO common to
such movement IL was steady decline from the
moment dealings commenced at the Board. The
formal opening price was lis, from which there was
decline to 117 during the forenoon. At IL o'clock
when the Assistant Treasurer opened the bids for
the Government gold and it was found that q total
of s2400,000 was bid for, the competition so mani
tested produced a reaction to 117H, curiously ex-
employing the fact that the sale OF Government
gold, while generally productive Of decline,
may produce an advance when, as ir such
existing in the market The reaction was hut
temporary however. for the intelligence OF an ad-
vance TO s6&@s7 for our bonds in London provoked
fresh weakness, and when at length it was an
nounced that the Prussan army had pierced the
French centre and was on its way to Paris, where,
furthermore revolution was said to be in progress
with view to the dethr0nement of Napoleon, gold
fell to 1154. 1t is not venturing too much to say
that the fall would have been still more precpitate,
and even to lower prices had not the covering OF
the enormous short interest arrested the decline at
such stage of its downward progress.
ut might be supposed that the Government mar
ket would have responded more closely the higher
quotations abroad, but the advance was barely a
quarter per cent: in the leading issues The reason
Of this Is twofold. In the first place, while high
gold renders the principal OF bond less valuable in
currency low gold makes the interest less valuable
The real price of such security in times like the
present is therefore, curious problem. In the
second place, there is widespread impression that
the bonds now on the market speculatively held
by the foreign bankers, who were the first break
down their price few weeks ago. The public, by
which term the street includes individuals, savings
banks and private corporations are, therefore, exc
cutting sort of poetic justice in refusing to buy the
bonds from the men who broke the market with
flood of sales and then loaded up at the lowest
prices ltremains to be seen who will profit by the
situatiOn.n

AQUEOUS.
The streets Turned into Rivers.

Whilst the party named Jupiter p, who is
supposed to act as the head of the water de-
partment of the space aerial, has been rather
sparing in the supply of aqua pure, many have
wondered at the cause and numerous have been
the surmises thereat. The storm, the welcome
storm, and to be emphatic, the thrice well
come storm of last night and this
morning has furnished many the clue
to the mystery. Jupe has been having built a
new and powerful turbine, and the result of its
first trial has been witnessed. Unlike those at
Fairmonnt, it has proved complete success in
fact rather too much so, as the sequel will show
The old story of "Rain on the Roof may be all
very well so far poetry is concerned, but
when the tune changes to "Rain in the Parlor +"
it is not quite so enjoyable
Doubtless many persons were truly thankful
for the abundance of the aqueous furnished,
but of their number were not the inhabitants
in the neighborhood of Front and Richmond
streets. Here a complete flood formed, and the
water rose four feet in the street. filling cellars
flooding parlors and floating carpets, furniture,
etc., ceilingward, beside furnishing an extensive

Nor were humanity the only sufferers, for in

At Second and Canal streets numerous cellars
were flooded and the police compelled to arouse
the inmates thereof and notify them of their
danger. The cellar of the Morgue at Front and
Noble streets was also flooded. and is to-day

DONALD DINNIE.

donian Gaplcs Next Week.
Among the prominent amusements in this city
are the exhibitions of athletic exercises which
are given annually by the Caledonian Clubs.
They always attract large audiences, composed
principally of our citizens OF Scottish descent.
To encourage these exercises, the clubs of this
country invited the champion athlete of Scot
land, Donald Dinnie, to cross the Atlantic and
give exhibitions of his powers in the prominent
cities in Canada and the United States. He has
consented, and is now in Canada. On Tuesday
next he will be In this city, and on that day will
appear at Oakdale Park and take part in the
programme arranged for that occasion by the
Caledonian Club of Philadelphia. The following
is q short sketch of the great athlete:-
Donald Dinnie was born at Aboyne, Aberdeen
shire, in 1888, and commenced his career as an
athlete in 1857. Since then he has gained up
wards of 1900 prizes 1000 of them being for
throwing the hammer, putting the stone, tossing
the caber running, leaping, wrestling, etc. He
has alse gained 62 silver medals, and the cham
pion gold medal, awarded by the Glasgow Celtic
Society, for throwing the hammer in 1867.
Forty of these medals are champion medals, and
had to be held for three successive years before
becoming his property. He is acknowledged to
be one of the best specimens of muscular de-
velopment that has ever appeared in Scotland.
The following are some of his dimensions:
height, feet in; round chest, 4515 In; arm,
1519 in; thigh, 2515 in.; weight, 210 pounds.
The following are some of his best feats on
level ground:-Putting the stone, % lbs, 39 feet
in; 10 lbs, AZ feet 9 in.; throwing the ham-
mer, % lbs, 81 feet; of 16 lbs,, 122 feet, fair
stand. Turning the body with the hammer, he
has sent a % Id. hammer 100 feet, and with one
has thrown hammer weighing 13 lbs. 130 feet.
At both feats (stone and hammer) he excels
anything that has ever been recorded in Scot
land. At high leap he has cleared feet II in;
longieap 10 feet Ain; hop, step and jump, 43
feet He also gained the champion silver cup
at Dublin in 1865, for performing feats with the
So ID. weight, for throwing which he challenges
any man in the world and will allow any man
in America IL inches start.

There was CLEAN OF helmeted heads and plumes

the glimpse was transient, and the clouds of dust

men in plain Clothes proceeding in some sort Of mi-

they had been called away so suddenly from hearth

head and front it is The stamp of Imperator is
there already, and it would not surprise very
much to learn that in an hour OF stress that old
man, with his piercing blue eye and open brow, and
fine lip, curved under his massive white moustache,
would cut the Gordan knot Of a constitution with a
swift, sure sword. Certainly he is not the sort of
man one would like to worry coram popuLo in a
watering-place. And then he has faith 'he be-
ieves," and he is that He in whom he believes
has placed his cause beyond the reach Of human
harm.
1t is observed, nevertheless, that the King is not
in his usual joyous spirits. He speaks with devout
confidence and trusts in the justice of his quarrel
but his Majesty is grave. The Crown Prince, too

them so much anxiety although they do not express
any apprehensions as TO the ultimate result.
