Despatch "a the Associated Press
WAsHINGToN, Jan. 17.-John q. Hopper,
Esq, of New York city, appeared before the
Senate Committee on Finance this morning.
and delivered an argument on American aud
British interests. He read letter from the
British Minister addressed to Messrs. Hunt
g. Tillinghast, of New York, show
ing the manner in which British
manufacturers are protected by the tariff on fine
raw woods and the mode by which they seek to
obtain important information from our Ameri-
can manufacturers to use for their own advan-
tage and to the detriment of our own manufac-
turers at home.

Applications for Pensions.
Representative Morgan, of Ohio, member of
the Military Committee has prepared bill
which the committee has authorized him to re-
port to the House, respecting the proviso of the
sixth section of the act of 1868, which limits
the application for a pension within five years
from the time of wounds, death, or any other
cause. 1t appears that in many cases persons
entitled to pensions have failed to receive them
by reason of ignorance of the above limitation.

Ayers Cherry Pectoral,
For Diseases of the Throat and Lungs,
such as Coughs, Colds, Whocping
Cough, Bronchitis, Asthma,
and Consrrnrfion

Eor diseases OF the Throat and Lungs,
such as Coughs, Colds, Whocping
Cough, Bronchitis, Asthma,
and Consumption.
Probably never before in the whole history of
medicine, has anything won so widely and so deeply
upon the confidence of mankind, as this excellent
remedy for pulmonary complaints. Through long
series of years, and among most of the races of
men it has risen higher and higher in their estma.
ton, as it has become better known. Its uniform
character and power to cure the various affections
of the lungs and throat, have made it known as re.
liable protector against them. While adapted to
milder forms of disease and to young children, it is
at the same time the most efecsual remedy that can
be given for incipient consumption, and the dan.
gerous affections of the throat and lungs. As pro.
vision against sudden attacks of Croesp, it should
be kept on hand in every family and indeed as all
are sometimes subject to colds and coughs, all
should be provided with this antidote for them.
Although settled Consumption is thought in.
curable still great numbers of cases where the dis.
ease seemed settled, have been completely cured,
and the patient restored to sound health bv the
Cherry PectoraI. So complete is its mastery
over the disorders of the Lungs and Throat, that
the most obstinate of them yield to it. When moth.
ing else could reach them, under the CAerry Pee
toraI they subside and disappear.
Singers and Public Speakers find great pro.
lection from it.
ASHe"fU 10 Always renewed ana often wholly
cured by it,
Bronchitis is generally cured by taking the
Cherry Pectoral in small and frequent doses,
For a Cough and Cold, no better remedy can
be had. Take small doses three times a day and
put the feet in warm water at night, until the
disease is broken up.
For Influenza, when 1t affects the throat or
lungs, take the same course.
For Whoopin0 Cough, give small doses three
or four times day.
a., For Group, give large and frequent doses until
uie disease is overcome.
49,, family should be without the Cherry Pect0-
from, vi nand to protect them in case of attack,
snares ~ aoose complaints. Its timely use often
