An Interesting Question-Can Con.
sumption be Cured?

This question Is often asked but rarely an
swered to the satisfaction of the patient. Our
answer is that pulmonary consumption in
its inclpient form is as durable as any other
disease, If only the right remedies are applied
The question naturally arises as to what are
the remedies? In reply we state that Mars
den's Pectorai Balm has been used success
fully in over million of eases, and has been
adopted by physicians as the most reliable
remedy known for the treatment o.. Bronch-
ial affections.
One great reason that Marsdens Pectoral
Balm has gained such popularity is the fact
that 1t is within the reach of all, and can be
purchased from all dealers at nifty cents for
small or one dollar for large bottle, One

Tho Worlds Coffee COrnered.
From the Boston Transcript.l

FROM Tine Boston lranScrlpt'I
The remarkable rise in the price of
coffee, in the face of the abolition of
tile tariff on that article, now turns out
to have been the result of n vast specu-
lative combination, having its center
in Rotterdam, Antwerp and Hamburg.
From these cities the most elaborate
and ingenious calculations were circu-
lated, alleging short crops and increased
consumption. Meanwhile the ring
kept ON buying, and holding for high
prices. Late reports are to the effect
that 100000 bags are stored at Antwerp,
with more to arrive, and that the yield
everywhere the present year will be
enormous. Hosts of the spectators
are already ruined, having staked their
entire capital on the risk.

AGRICULTURAL COLLEGE.

The joint resolution offered by Mr.. Toby
of Calais, this afternoon, directing Inquiry
into the manner of cxpending the income
of the Agricultural College by the trustees,
is called out, suspect from two causes
In the first place, the college, In asking for
an appropriation to support professor Of
agriculture, lay themselves open to the In
quiry proposed. In the next place, the
people of Burlington may be reminded by
the resolution that while they have an eye
on the State House, their hold upon the
Agricultural College fund Is by no means
so sure as that Middlebury and Norwich
Colleges may not secure division Of the
fund among the three colleges of the state.

MISS CUSraMAN'S FAREWELL.
A Grand Ovation and Fitting Trib'
ute TO the Great Actress.

ADDRESS BY WILLIAM CULLEN BRYANT, ODE
BY RICHARD II. sToDDARD, AND MISS
CUsUMAN's GRATEFUL THANKS.
The scene at Booths theater, New York,
Saturday night, on the occasion of the last
appearance on the stage of Charlotte Cush-
man, was one OF the most remarkable in
that city's theatrical annals. The theater
was deliberately decorated, and filled by an
enthusiastic audience, the boxes being &C.
cupied by celebrities. among them Peter
Cooper, Gov Elect Tilden. Mayor Have
meyer, and Mayor-Elect Wickham. Corne-
Illus Vanderbilt, Mayor Hunter of Brook
Ign, Chief Justice Daily, Judges J.F. DAILY,
Brady and Lawrence, Gen. Hancock, Ad-
miral Rowan and representatives OF the
professions and the theaters. The play was
splendldly acted, Miss Cushman as Lady
Macbeth being supported by Mr.. Vanden-
hoff as Macbeth, and it closed amidst the
most tumultuous applause, during which
The members of the Arcadian, Manhattan.
Palette and Army and Navy clubs filed on
to the stage, and Miss Cushman, with other
members of the profession, advanced to
meet them. The applause was deafenng
and prolonged. Prof. Roberts of New
York college then read the following ode by
Richard II. Stoddard:

sENsATIONAL JOUKNALIsM.

How many hearts out of the great city
of New York were agonized for the mo-
ment, on Monday, in glancing over the dis
played headings of the New York Herald
"a half column of attractive suffering and
terror sufficient to freeze the blood in one's
veins If one was so fortunate as to.glance
to the end of the whole one page of thai
paper he could have read that it was false
hood-a mere narration of what might have
taken place-and then have saved himself
the pangs that belong 10 a common hui
mainly In any case the agony of the re-
cital was Of short duration. But it is no
less an outrage that demands from the
press of the whole country the severcst re-
buke.
No man has right to PROSTATE his pow
ers to so unholy and wicked purpose,
and it seems to us that language is too
weak to convey ones loathiug and disgust
at such an exhibition, on the part of a
journal which claims to be more widely
read than any other in the United States
Acts like this ought to be made by statute
high crime and misdemeanor. 1t was
the announcement that the wild beasts Of
the Central Park collection, commencing
with the Infatuated rhinoceros, had broken
from their enclosures and were thus let
loose upon the thousands assembled in the
park on the Sabbath. The most full and
detailed account of the slaughter of the
innocents, almost too hcartrending to read,
was paraded over one whole page Of that
sheet, winding up with the announcement
that OF course no such thing had happened
Whatever there. be of value in a journal
that would permit such prostitution of
its columns, ought not to weigh feather
in giving it circulation among reputable
people. 1t is a disgrace to the profession
of journalism. and 1t should be branded
with scorn and infamy by the universal
press. What motive can be ascribed to
such conduct, that will not brand it with
deeper and darker stains, the more 1t shal
be considered?
