International Money Orders.

The International money order system between
this country and Great Britain takes effect on
the I'd of October. This will be good news 10
people in al parts of our country, as it does away
with the old tedious plan Of drafts, and makes
the matter of sending money across the Ocean
as easy and as safe, as it now is to send money
from one state to another.
Five hundred and seventy postolIices in the
United States have been authorized to issue
these orders. The rates will be as follows

Allow us to inquire of Mr. EvERs, what in
fuence was brought to bear on Judge PILLARS
to get him to change this decision, aud six
months after order the Commissioners report
published in the Saitiaei, at an expense of 1925
without first being investigated by com
miItee, as the law specifically requires. Occupy
ing the honorable position Of Judge, he certainly
would not change an estaDllshcd.opinion in regard
to the law for few bottles Of whisky that EvERs
might slip to him occasionally in order to get on
the "good side Of him."

TAKE WARNING!

vNHE V. 4 T. K. r. co. ARE ANXIOUS TO
take due preCaution against accidents and
la-s Of life resulting from the running of their
trains; and they take this method Of warning pa
rents and guardians against the dangers attending
the too common practice of children playing about
.loIr cars and locomotives. Those having in charge
the business Of the Company find it impossible to
PERSUADE boys. who frequent the termini and stop
piLg places of the read from climbing upon the
cars and engines; and they will feel themselves
obliged to resort to more decided measures if these
annoyances are continued. Recent accidents,
which are wholly ascril,able to the carelessness Of
persons i'll jumping on and off the cars when in
motion, should be warning enough in themselves.

Colds and how TO Proven, Them

One OF the leading predisposing causes
is eating too much and eating those kinds
otIOod which tend to clog up and burden
the system. Anything which weakens
the body or dcpresSes the vital powers
acts rs a predisposing cause For in
stance. the use of alcoholic liquois i. a
powerful pIediSpoSing cause, although
they are taken under The mistaken idea
that they tend TO prevent colds. 1t is
now u well ascertained fact that pei sons
who DO lot use stimulants can endure
cold longer and better. and arc much sss
liable 10 colds-the same is true OF all
diseasos--than those. who do. The rea-
SON is plain. Ii is that the effect of slim
ulatiOn Is exhaustion.
The principal exciting cause of colds
is being shut up in over heated and bad,
" ventilaled rooms. Persons who are
thus confined are much mole subject 10
them than those who are much out OF
DOCS ia all kinds Ut weather The lnl
lowing fact will serve is an illustration ::
IN the winter OF 1861, 4 portion OF u regi
ment IN The army of the Potomac built
fire places oi turf. stone and other rough
materials rs they could lind. rude heaters
but capital ventilators; while another p0r-
ton bought little sheet iron stoves that
were capable Of making the tent as hot rs
an oven. The result was that among the
first class there was scarcely a case OF
severe cold or pneumonia during the
winter, while the second class suffered
severely. Pure air, not too highly heat
