instances, the want of means. In
addition to these hinderances there
are busy bodies in every communi
ty, who, having no business of their
own, insist upon attending to that
of others. This generous portion
of the community never fail to i'm
prove the opportunity of criticIsing
US in hundred ways, and it is from
them that we receive the appellation
of ''the young doctor"
l am sorry to say that some of
the older brothers in the profession
wink at these ungenerous thrusts,
and if questioned in regard to our
professional standing, will say, "He
does pretty well for a young man,
and with practice and study may in
time make a tolerably fair physi-
cian." f- .ta --- 80 l.-t.
We think this is unjust. So it is;
but We may expect nothing else from
such a source, and the way to neu-
tralize and overcome those infiuen-
ces and prejudices is, by eultivating
good habits, by close application to
study, by strictly observing the
rules of medical ethics, and with
an untiring energy we will secure a
practice worthy of our efforts.
We should never become discour-
aged in our profession, so long as
there yet remain broad fields for in
vestigation. but rather labor for the
advancement of medical science and
literature, and the elevation of the
standard of professional education,
thereby promoting the character,
the interests, honor and usefulness
of the profession. May we work
for the common good of each other.
In short, let each of us strive to be
a link in the golden chain that binds
the medical fraternity in one COM
mon brotherhood.

TRANSPORTATION OF PRODUCE.

The subject of transportation for
industrial products. and Of the
means of intercommunication be-
tween the different portions of the
country by railroad and water chan
nels, has recently claimed much at
tention in the House, and elected
many important and interesting
facts. The first twenty miles of
railroad was built in this country in
1880, and two years later the first
locomotive engine was put upon the
track. In the last forty years 6l,-
460 miles of railroad have been
built at 4 round cost of 2,400, 900,
and there are at the present time
projected and in progress of con-
struction 1900 miles in addition.
In these huge undertakings the gov
ernment has been generous almost
to fault. But it has not looked
with an equal favor upon the i'm
provement and enlargement of wa
ter channels. And it is argued that
when the nation shall adopt sys-
TEN of internal and foreign trans
portation by water channels com
mensurate with the necessities of
the country, we shall then be able
to compete successfully with the
other great markets Of the world,
both at home and abroad. For ex-
ample, it now costs about thirty-fi
cents per bushel to ship wheat from
the Baltic to Liverpool, and about
forty-fve cents from the Black Sea
provinces. And it is urged that we
should be able, by the introduction
of proper system, to send wheat
and other products from the Miss
issippi valley to Liverpool for thir-
ty cents per bushel, and by thus Sc
curing large portion of European
trade, cause gold to come in rather
than to flow out of the country. Du
ring the last year the States of what
is known as the northwest territory,
with not one-sixth of I'll e soil under
cultivation, produced three-quart-
ers of all the cereals raised in the
entire country. These eleven States
Ohio, Kentucky, Indiana, Illinois,
Missouri, Kansas, Nebraska, Iowa,
Minnesota, Wisconsin, Michigan,
with the Territory of Dakota, pro-
duced 225,OO0,0OO of bushels of
wheat to sc, 1888, 900 bushels produc-
ed in all the other States. And the
probabilities are that in this region
there will be produced, as will be
shown by the census of 1880 of the
FIVE great staples, an amount as fol

EMILIO CASTELAR,. ,

One of the results of the estab-
ment of the Spanish Republic is the
promotion of that friend of civil and
religious freedom, that great Span
ish orator Senior CASTELAR,, to the po-
sition of minister Of foreign affairs
in Spain. CASTELAR, is now to Spain
what Van Beust was to Austria, and
Cayour to Italy, an advocate of the
Separation of the Catholic church
from the State, requiring each de-
nomination to support ITSELF He
also favors perfect religious
federation - treating Protestant
ism, Catholicism, and Juda-
ism all alike before the law, and
this too in the land Of the Inquis::-
ton, where heretics were formerly
burned and tortured in every imag-
Unable way that cruelty could devise,
in the name Of the Roman Church. /.
It is wonderful sign of progress
for the land of Eoyola, the founder
of Jesuitisrn and of the Inquisition,
to become land of religious toler-
alton, where all can worship God
without fear Of persecution. Verify
we live in an age of progress. The
Pope is stripped of his kingly pre-
rogatives-not by Professionalism,
but by his own Catholic people, and
is now only head Bishop. Pros
testant churches and Prostestant
schools are established under the
walls of st. Peter, where formerly
they were forbidden by papal au-
thority. In Roman Catholic Aus
tria and Italy, religious liberty now
exists in spite of the protests of the
Pope. And now Spain, the most
bigoted of Catholic countries will
soon be added to the list, leaving
little Portugal alone as the only civ
llized country where perfect tolera-
tion does not exist.
CASTELAR, will be remembered by
many of our readers as the states
man who made those great forensic
efforts before the Spanish Cortes,
in opposition to the Papal church,
and in which he depicted in his own
unrivalled style, the atrocities com
mitted by the Spanish inquisition.

pounds of wool.
But in addition to the surplus of
these staples must be considered
the production of cotton, sugar, iron,
cool and oil, and many other ma
nv other materials of commerce
furnished in different sections of the
country. And remembering the va
rious foreign markets which are now
open in Turkey, Portugal, Australia,
Columbo, the West Indies, Brazil,
and Venezela, and which would give
to us in the total gigantic trade,
there seems to be a paramount force
in the arguments of those who fa-
yor the prompt action of Congress
on this question Of the industrial
prosperity of the country.
The debate upon the subject has
taken wide range, involving many
important phases Of our national
condition. For the nine years past
the excess of trade against us, as
nearly as can be ascertained,
amounts to $SlO,000,OO0, and our
foreign Indebtedness to-day, no
doubt, reaches the enormous sum of
81, 900, 100000, and this amount is
increasing at the rate of 100000
600 per ahnum. There can be no
doubt that the languishing condi-
tion of our commerce forms one of
the saddest features of our material
condition as people, and Congress
must do something to restore to
this country its just balance Of trade
if it would not incur the charge of
having, by its neglect Of such CO.
lossal- interests, suffered signal
desriment to come to the Republic,

Railroading is yet pretty rough
pastime. One day last week an east
bound freight train struck broken
rail near Mansfield, and the engine
and two cars of mules were turned
upside down. Several mules were
killed, but worse than all a poor
brakeman was crushed to death un-
der one of the cars. The following
day five double decks of hogs were
turned over at Spring Mills Station
and the slaughter amongst the
porkers was more lively than a per-
son would like to witness. Last
Saturday morning some miserable
scroundrel at Wooster placed a
piece Of an iron rail in between the
switch rail which caused freight
engine to leave the track and roll
down an embankment near the gas
works. Fortunately the engineer
and fireman jumped from the engine
barley in time to save their lives.

eLApsToNE,s INVESTIGATIONS,

MIR. Gladstone is making inyesti-
cations, looking to the ultimate par
chase, by the Government, of the
railway lines of the Kingdom. /,
is claimed that his first experiments
will be with the lines in Ireland and
ifthe plan to be adopted in their
management works well, he will
take all the lines in the country,
and place them under the govern
ment. Some opposition to the en-
terprise has developed, ,owing to the
vast patronage it will place in the
hands of the Governments rathe,
curious objection to be made in
England. Gladstone argues from
the snccess that has attended the
telegraph management by the Gov
eminent, that an equal success will
attend its railway enterprise, and
that IT may be made source of rev re- Z
enue to the Government, as well as
OF advantage to the people. If he
should be able to reduce MATERIAL V
the rate of fares, and yet have a sur
plus each year, it. certainly would
go far toward popularizing the EN-
terprise. There is in this a sugees-
tion to- Congress as to the method
of managing the Union Pacific Rail-
road. As facts have developed, the
Government would be entirely justl-
fed IN seizing the road, while the
equities of the case might be main
tained by paying innocent stock
holders a certain fair valuation for
their stock. One misfortune, how
ever, is that We have not the nerve
to take hold of the telegraph lines
OF the country, even after it has been
demonstrated that they may be made
a source of actual profit to the
country. This being the case, many
years must elapse before we will
even think of the radical movement
projected, by Gladstone. On the
continent OF Europe there is a clause
in the charter Of every railroad cor
poration,providing for the reversion
of their property to the Government
after the lapse of ninety-nine years.

A Suggestive Incident in the
Arkansas Valley. aoa-.'

On one ofthe bright days of Jan
uary, just past, a party OF Illinois
stock men were riding in a buggy in
the Arkansas valley, in Western
Kansas, looking overp a small por-
ton of the 100000, acres of.land
in that part of the world, owned by
that Atchison Topeka and Santa Fe
r, R. Company. Suddenly they
were startled by a string of exple-
tives which would hardly be consid
cred polite in good society closing
up with the demand :"Drat yer pie
ters can't We hear9. Stop !" p. 20 20 q. Z.
As these words were accompanied
by violent gestures on the part of a
man who stood not far away, gun in
hand, they did stop. But the tragic
thing they anticipated was only the
death Of a Texas heifer, two years
old, standing in the prairie, among
herd of two or three hundred, with
whose sudden death they hadbeen in
danger of interfering while wonder
ing at the motivewhich could induce
a man to shoot down grass-fed
