September does not return mature fruits

A Department of Commerce.

The business of the Treasury Depart
ment has grown so largely that it is said
the Secretary can no longer exercise
sufficient supervision over such multlta-
rious duties as now pertain to the office,
and that in his forthcoming annual report
to Congress he will advocate the establish
ment of a Department OF Commerce, en-
tirely distinct from the financial concerns
of the Government, and similar to the
Department of Agriculture. There are
many reasons for partially new dIstrIbu-
too of executive duties. Since the eX-
isting DEPARTMENTS were established, new
requirements growing out OF the eXl-
percies Of great nation have beer added
% them from time to time, until they
have become in some respects too COM
plicated and incODgruous to be admins
tered successfully by a single head. The
interests of trade and commerce, especial
" in their countless relations to the laws
and to administration, are OF too great
magnitude to hold q second place IN any
denartment Of the Government. Pre-
ciselv what the functions of the new de-
partment will be, if sanctioned by Con-
gress, it is not intimated, but there are
certain obvious duties which would ap-
propriately fall within its province, IN
Guiding all matters relating to the ex-
changes of the country; the railroad,
transportation and navigation interests,
together with all the great mercantile and
productive interests. In point of fact,
such department might with propriety
be made to occupy substantially the same
relation to the commercial and industrial
interests in the United States, that the
British Board of Trade occupies toward
the same interests il the United King
dom. The increase OF commerce and OF
industrial development III this country
has outgrown the original system OF the
Treasury Department, the business men
of the country have the right to demand
that the paramount commercial interests
shall be represented in the Government
as their Importance demands. There
can be no doubt that. under response
BILE head, the duties which would fall
within the scope ofthe department which
it is proposed to organize, would be much
more intelIigently performed than they
could possibly be Il left to the Secretary
of the Treasury, who must make the
finances of the country his first and SUI
irene care. We trust, therefore, that
the suggestion of Mr.. Boutwell, Will be
heeded.-N. 7. Shipping List.

SCENARIOS RELIGION.
The Departed Statesman's Views of
hmm ortahty.
From the New York Herald.

One Of his most intimate clerical
friends says that Governor Seward firm
ly believed the doctrine Of the immorai-
ty Of the soul. and OF It's ultimate reun-
ion with some form Of immortallZed
body after death, according to the init
nations contained IL St. Paul's First
Epistle to the Corinthians. 1t was his
manner of expressing his ideas upon the
subject to say that there is not any real
death that the life with which a human
being is invested at his birth is an ema-
nation from the Deity and is inmc Tt&) {;
that the first clay body in which it is
tabernacled wears out and pcrlshes
that the spiritual lite continues to exist
thenceforward in a disembodled state
until the occurrence Of the greatest Of all
the marvels, the great consumation-
viz the resurrection and rehabilitation
of the body, its union again in some
form with the life or spirit, and the
creation OF new earth, when man as.
cends to higher sphere Of existence.
Hence it was his habit to speak OF death
as a temporary sleep of the body, and
a future state, so called, Of the soul or
tence. The first time the Governor
subject was at the burial, on Fort Hill,
of Judge Miller
His dust merely sleeps there tenn
porarily," he remarked, "but the Judge
himself is still alive Then, in
measured and very impressive manner,
he repeated few lines from the Hymn
to Death. -
Such" he continued, lis the doc
trine, the faith and the hopes Of the
Christian religion. 1t is the appoint
ed destiny of man"
In the month of June, 1868, when
the sexton was preparing the grave on
Fort Hill for Mrs. Seward, the Governor
went there in company with Baron
Stocked, General Hancock and DIR. Norr-
is, to give the required directions, and
sat for while with them upon the
ground, when the Baron remarked that
he was unable 10 realize the fact that
Mrs Seward was dead.
''She is not" replied the Governor;
"she still lives. She still hives in the
condition which the Church styles the
place of the departed spirits. There is
no such thing as death Of the soul or
life. 1t is the body alone which sleeps,
and that only for limited but unreyeal-
ed season. So we read and SO we be-
lieye.
THAT" returned the Baron, "is
very comfortable reflection.
ut is not only comfortable reflec-
tion,' continued the Governor, but it
is the consolation by an enlighte ned view
of the Christian religion.
The same idea was advanced by the
Governor at the time of the burial by
the side of her mother Of the daughter
Frances.

Peter Cartwright.

The Northeastern Christian Aarocate
says: AS mere antique, we shall miss
him. He died only last week, but he was
older than the photograph, the Protest
ant Episcopal Prayer-book. the American
post office. the telegraph, our oldest rail-
way, ocean steamers, and the Constitu-
ton Of the United States. He was con-

and Others who made their records long
ago. When he was born, the Union had
but thirteen States; it was still under
the Articles of Confederation, and the
Continental Congress was in session in
New York. When the first census was
taken, FIVE years after his birth, the coun-
try had population Of less than ,000,-
600.
Hiss long life of 81 years seems short
one, but the period is more golden than
the seventy-iive years that witnessed the
invention of printing, the mariner cons.
pass, gunpowder and the Reformation.
The period bounded by 1855 and 1872
has no rival in history, and Peter Cart
wright's life spanned it all, He died as
old as the Republic. and all his labor was
given to Mcthodism, that mainstay Of
the Republic as sturdy and vital as Puri
tanisn.
At Cartwright's birth, John Wesley
was still living. When he was converted,
in 1901, the American Methodist Church
had less than 73, 900 members, and the
whole verdi had less Metnodists than are
now within the patronizing territory OF
the Northeastern. Long before his de-
cease, in 1872, the world had 5000, 600
Wesleyans, and Methodist constituency

AMERICAN MERCHANTS EXPRESS Co., \

CHICAGO, NOVEMBER l, 1872.
70 agents Am IL U Ecpress Co.:
The horse distemper, originating in
Canada is now prevalent in this country,
and it seems more than likely that il
sill reach you and attack the company 5
horses IN your charge, and as the horses
IN the Buffalo stable have been so far
carried through and without loss, |
send you the following treatment pur-
sued by our Mr.. Gould, and if you have
none better, adopt these rules. The dis
ease seems to be a catarrhal fever, first
in the head, and If not ayerted goes 70
the lungs, ending in lung fever, which
very often proves fatal; il commences
with q short hacking cough, and within
twenty-four hours, the nose discharges,
first watery, then thickens light color
at first, then darkens no smell.
MIR. Gould course is as follows:
When the Symptoms are first noticed
commence feeding warm mashes, of
bran and cut hay; give water after the
FEED, not before, keep the horse we'll and
warmly blauketed.
Do not use the horse unless compelled
to do so, and then he must not be driven
faster than walk put on a blanket
whenever he is standing. If the horse
refuses to eat the ''mash," then give
him oat meal gruel-give a quart or two
at time-pour it down or give from
bottle The horse will have a sore throat
examine, and when seen, apply to fol-
lowing mixture outwardly, rubbing thor
oughly from the jaws to the chest, twice
day: Take and mix ounces Tincture
Of Arnlca, 4 ounces Choloform, ounces
Ammon and ounces Sweet Oil /; in
addition to the outward remedy you will
buy piece Of quarter inch rubber tube
or pipe-eightens inches long-put in
one end about tablespoonful of finely
pulverized Alum, insert the tube in the
mouth to and beyond the roots of the
tongue, and then blow the powder in the
throat. Use this when the throat be-
comes sore or much irritatrd. Use this
with direction.
Buy an eight ounce Rubber Ball Sy-
ringe and inject up each nostril the fol
lowing mixture, four times in the TWEEN
ty-four hours, aud continue until you are
we'll satisfied that the liquid has gone
well up the nostrils Mixture-One
pound Of Chloride of Potash to three
gallons of soft water mix thoroughly.
Should the horse be taken with chills,
it is sure evidence of lung fever, and
Immediate care is required. You will
then give thirty (3O) drops Of the fol-
lowing, every hour, until the horse is
relieved: One ounce of aconite and
three ounces of water; mix and use.
He must be kept from the rain or cold
winds. Keep the stable clean, use a
chloride of lime about the floors Watch
your horses day and night good care
and warm covering will do as much as
medicine. Chas. Fargo.
