and the ability with which the topics are
treated is fully up to the standard of ex.
oellence we have commended in former
numbers. The appendix to the present
number contains the able speeches of Hon.
Mr.. McCray, of Iowa, and Hon. Geo. F.
Hoar, of Massachusetts. On the transpor-
tation question, and that of Hon. N. P.
Chipman, of the District Of Columbia,
giving many historical facts relating to
District affairs.
Among the many articles of interest in
the magazine proper are those entitled.
"The State Department" "Individual Pa
triotism," "Has the Government neglected
the Farmers" Southern War Claims. "
"The Political Situation" "Pennsylvania
Railroad Report" "Indian Policy" &c.

neglected by any person desiring reliable
information on any important public topic.

How Is THIs?-The Cleveland
Plaindealer explains the difference be.
tween genuine and imitation whiskey,
and other spirits, thus:
1t is fiuid made up variously of high
wines, aqua fortis, nux vomica, aloes, burnt
sugar, and other INGREDIENTS, and hauled
about the city in demijohns and thus ped.
died out to the low, cheap doggeries which
buy their supplies daily and only few de-
canters or jugs full at time. By certain
combinations of the ingredients. ''imita.
tion" brandy, rum, and gin are made and
peddled and drank by the same persons.
The object of the aqua fortis is to give the
liquid "lfe" and so thoroughly cauterile
the mouth and throat of the drinker that
he will be unable to tell what he has been
drinking. The superiority of imitation
whisky to genuine, consists in the fact that
whereas good, healthy man can stand q
wrestle Of several years with orthodox
Bourbon, about sixty days of the bogus ar
ticle-if it has fair chance-will breed q
menagerie in his boots.

BANK CHARTER SURRENDERED
The First National Bank of Brookville
has quit business and surrendered its
charter. Note holders are requested to
send in their notes within the next sixty
days and have them replaced with other
currency. Exactly what reasons are
assigned for this act we are unable to
say; but Of one thing we are certain, it
was not compelled to adopt this course
by the late panic.
