THE TREATY.

Our news from Washington is to the
effect that the Foreign Committees in both
houses Of Congress, the leading Senators,
includiog Sumner, and the President and
Cabinet, are ali agreed that this Govern
ment will not depart hairs breadth from
that construction of the treaty and of the
principles Of International law applicable to
the case in hand which has been adopted
By the majority of the Board of Arbitrators
at Geneva. This is in accordance with the
principles of eternal justic; for what is the
solemity of treaty worth if one of the
parties to it may upon its own motion,
under threat of withdrawal, force upon the
other party and all the rest of the world
one-sided, unjust construction, in violation
of its plain provisions? England outraged
the law of nations by fostering and harbor
ing pirates against our commerce. Her
wrong cost us hundreds of lives. We have
demanded settlement and compensation,
50 far as money can redress such wrong.
She put off the day of settlement from
year to year, and at last, in an affected
spirit offriendship and justice, she consen-
ted to this treaty, and to the arbitrament
for which it provides. The rules to govern
the adjustment are clearly set forth in the
sixth section of the treaty, and the Arbi-
traitors agreed upon by both the treaty
Powers, declare what they understood
those rules to mean. Their judgment is
accepted by the United States-the injur-
ed parfy-as final, but it is rejected by
England because less favorable to het in
terests than her Government hoped it would
be when they consented to the ratification
of the treaty. What shall be said and
what done by US in such case of unmixed
bad faith Clearly there is no use in
further amicable parley with such an ad-
versary. Her course leaves US no choice
but an appeal to force to obtain our rights
And we believe it is now the sense of the
intelligence Of America, first, that our
Government should undertake the settle
ment of all these private claims for dam
ages, and then seek its C, mpensation from
England by force. We should find a re-
compense for our consequential losses in
letting loose swarm of privateers which
would sweep Englands commerce from
every sea and for direct damages in the
seizure of the Canadian Dominion and the
Punishment of the British flag from every
acre of laud on this continent.-Sacram

NEW USE FOR ELEcTRICITY.-Elect
city has achieved new triumph. Already
employed to restore vi;.or and nimbleness
to the gouty liu,bs of decrepit bons vivauts,
the recent discoveries of DIR. Bernier, a
French physician, show electricity to be an
efficient remedy for the evil effects Of
excessive drinking on the human nose
The doctor maintains that, by the applica-
tion of an electric current to noses even OF
the most Bacchanalian hue, the flesh may
be made "to come again as the flesh Of
little child" and he supports his assertion
by case performed on female patient of
his own, woman ofhigh rank Scientific
American.
The ladies of Shasta do not need electri-
city to regulate the complexion of their
noses, but we know of a lew gentlemen
about town who might possibly improve
their personal appearance by taking few
shocks, but then they might not be able to
see their way home OF dark nights by the
Eight of their flaming nasal appendages.-
But to be candid, we doubt the efficacy of
the above remedy, as we have seen expert
ments with tightening tried in several in
stances, and it always seemed to add ver-
million to the nose in place of bleaching.

SPAsMoDIC RELGIoN-This kind of
religion that aiternates between the house
top and the cellar-Gow elated and now
discouraged-is not in harmony with the
arrangement of heaven. "Abide in the
vine" be alternately IN and out; but
"abide" in Christ. This getting religion,
when we are destitute Of it, is all right !;
but it is far better to keep it when we get
1t, than to get it several times a year. 1t
is Gods will that the sp rit should "dwell
in you" instead of paying you an occas.
ional visit. Then the Spiri: will ever be
present to indite our petitions, aud PRAYER
will thus bring US an everyday SUI ply of
this sacred influence to stimulate US on
our honeward journey. If religion is good
at all, it is good all the while Why not

Every year increases the populari-
ty of this valuable Hair Preparation;
which is due to merit alone. We
can assure our old patrons that it is
kept fully up to its high standard;
and it is the only reliable and perfect
ed preparation for restoring GRAY
OR FADED HAIR to its youthful color,
making it soft, lustrous, and silken.
The scalp, by its use, becomes white
and clean. 1t removes all eruptions
and dandruf, and, by it's tonic prop
critics, prevents the hair from falling
out, as it stimulates and nourishes
the hair-glands. By its use, the hair
grows thicker and stronger. In
badness, it restores the capillary
glands to their normal vigor, and
will create a new growth, except in
extreme old age. 1t is the most eco
nomical HAIR DRESSING ever used,
as it requires fewer applications,
and gives the hair splendid, glossy
appearance. A. A. Hayes, MD,
State Assayer of Massachusetts, says,
"The constituents are pure, and care
fully selected for excellent quality;
and l consider it the BEST PREPA-
RATION for it's intended purposes"

Many years ago Robert Treat Paine
father of the (poet.) was one of the Judges
of the Massachusetts, Supreme Court. He
was very old and the bar desired him to
retire from the bench; so they appointed
Harrison Gray Otis, who was very polite
and accomplished, to go and see the Judge
and talk to him upon the subject. He sug-
gested to the Judge that it must be very in
convenient for him to leave home so often
and so long.
"Oh The was always ready to sacrifice his
personal preference for the good of his
country"
But" suggested Otis, "you are not in
good health-you are infrm-are you not
afraid this excessive duty will kill you?"

in better cause than administering JUS

"Do you see as well as you used top

not hear unless yelled through trumpet. }

Mr.. Editor-Having been reader Of
the "Times," and thinking a few items
from this vicinity might be interesting to
its readers, will endeavor to give par
tial, and perhaps imperfect description of
this place.
Elmira, the county seat of Chemung
county, is on the right bank of the Che
mung river, miles from the line between
Pennsylvania and New York, and about
274 miles by railroad, from New York city.
1t is real pretty, and quite level city, and
contains about 1900 inhabitants.
The Northern Central, Erie and Lehigh
Valley Railroads pass through the place,
and almost any hour You can hear the shrill
scream of the " iron horse" as it thunders
along with its ponderous load of coal or
merchandise. There is also n street Rail
way from Elmira to Households, town
about 9 miles above this place.
Except in the business part of the city.
Water, Lake and Baldwin streets-the
houses are, generally, built back from the
street, with pretty yards in front, filled
with flowers, fountains, evergreens, shade
and ornamental trees. A great many of
the houses are two-story frame structures
with fom-sided roofs-somctimes fiat OF
else cottage style, very steep. Along
Water, Lake and Baldwin streets, there
are some large, three, four, and five story
brick buildings The pavements are either
stone, plank, or Wyckofi.-no brick pave
ment
There are good many churches, Episco-
pal, Presbyterian, Methodist and Roman
Catholic, no German Reformed, and think
no Lutheran. Also, the Park church,
where the Rev. Beecher ofiiciates. lie
sometimes breaches in the Opera House,
where his average congregation is about
1400.
The N. O. X. w. shops are located a
short distance below the city, and employ
a number of men.

must be brief" viii close, Yours &c.

would make matters no worse. Again !

myself through the little easement, drop
ped as gently as could upon the moist
earth; and crouching against the wall, ask
ed myself what / should do next. To
climb the cliff would be to offer myself as a
target to the first soldier who saw me.
To venture along the ravine would be, per-
haps, to encounter Gasparo and his captors
face to face. Besides, it was getting dusk;
and, under cover of the night, if could
only conceal myself till then, might yet
escape. But where was that concealment
to be found? Heaven be thanked for the
