one Of The many virtues Of this un-

one of the Offices of tue bile to ab-

work, this function devolves upon the
kidneys, which cannot even imper-

Many who ore suffering from the
effects Of the warm weather and are
debilitated, are advised by physicians
to take moderate amounts Of whiskev
two or three times during the day. IL
little while, those who adopt this
advice frequently increase the number
OF "drinks. " and in time become con-
hrmed inebriates. A beverage which
will not create thirst for intoxicating
liquors, and which is intended espe-
cially for the benefit of debilitated
persons, whether at home or abroad, is
DIR. Schenck's Sea Weed Tonic. Con-
tanning the juices of many medicinn.
herbs. this preparation does not create
an appetite for the Intoxicating cup.
The nourishing and the life-supporting
properties OF many valuable natural
productions contained in it and we'll
known to medical men have a most
strengthening influence. A single
bottle Of the Tonic will dem monstrate its
valuable qualities. For debility aris.
ing from siokness, over. .exertion or
from any cause whatever, wine.
glassful OF Sea Weed Tonic, taken
after meals. will strengthen the sto.
mach and create al appetite for whole
some food. To ell who are about
leaving their homes. We desire to saw
that the excellent effecse Of Dr..
Schenck's seasonable remedies, Sea
Weed Tonic and Mandrake Pills, are
particularly evident when taken by
those who are iniuriously affected by O

should leave home without taking a

Cheap Transportation.

WASHINGTON. Jan. i6.-m the National
Cheap transportation Convention to-lay. the
Railroad committee reported in favor of fed
eral legislation restricting railroad frcights,
and In many respects controlling their man
agement, and recommending National mar
rOw-gauge railroad between the Western and
Eastern seaports, 10 be built AT the expense
OF the United States Government. Judge L..
Cochran, Of Georgia. presented minority re-
port, declaring that Congress has no power 10
regulate freight charges on existing railroads.
The right TO regulate commerce does not
mean 10 build railroads 10 carry on commerce.
The power TO regulate il one thing, but the
power 10 create is another. Charters created
by states are legislative contracts, which nei-
ther states nor Congress can touch without
violating the fundamental law. Other rea-
sons are given against the majority report
Both reports Were received and laid over.
The convention then took up the reports on
the water routes. The majority report
resolves that some system of internal
transportation, 10 bring into free Intercourse
the different sections of the country, is impcr-
auyely demanded 10 revive our foreign COM
merce and increase and develop our
domestic trade. and that To effect this
object the United States Government
should improve the great rivers and
lakes which form the natural channels Of
trade, and connect these by such a system of
canals as will open free and uninterrupted
outlets from the interior TO the sea and means
of fintercommunication between States them
selves. The construction Of these works s
the present object in view, and the matters OF
detail may be safely left To the wisdom of
Congress. The minority report on the same
subject suggests that the convention propose
10 Congress such enlargement of the Erie
Canal and lake route Ia may be practicable,
and the enlargement and extension of the Illi-
nois and Michigan Canal 10 the Mississippi
River at Rock Island. together with the com
pletion of work ON the Illinois which will fur
nish additional and cheaper transportation
from the great ran-producing region of the
Northwest 10 the seaboard, and also be the
means of etiectually cheapening the rates for
freight upon all railroads running 10 the Mis-
sissppI River from the mouth of the Ohio to
our Northern limits; and such Improvement
of the Mississippi River at its mouth and else
where as may be needed TO furnish good nayi-
CATION TO the Gulf. and a third route from the
Mississippi River 10 the seaboard, by the Ten
nessee River route. called the Atlantic and
Great Western route. There was 4 general
discussion Of reports. but without action the
Convention adjourned.
At the next session the Convention will de-
terminc upon plans 10 be suggested 10 Con
gress and Legislatures of several States.

ers. except the President of the United States

excess OF the mileage and allowances fixed by
law at the commencement Of said Congress, and
which shal, moi have been drawn by the mem
bcrs oi said Congress respectively, or which,

form 10 the United States. hereby covered

The National Board of Trade.

BALTIMORE. Jan. 16.-At the meeting of
the National Board of Trade to-day the follow
ing resolutions Of the report of the Comit-
tee on transportation were adopted;
/. Railway companies, engaged in the business
OF transporting grain Ina bulk, should IN all carcs
deliver the same quantity ofgrain as they receive
and that while IL Is believed tnat the common law
governing all carriers would, II applied, enforce
This principle, II is proper and desirable that the
different State legislatures should pass laws com
pelling its observance. thereby facilitating its
enforcement by any indNiinal aggrieyed.
2. That IL Is ineXpedient for Congress ~ the
present time TO assume any pecuniary obiga-
tons, or 10 make any appropriations In aid Ol art-
fetal means OF transportation.
3. That while railway companies, like all other
corporations, ARE under control of and held re-
sp0nsible 10 the power which gave them exist
ence, and may properly be checked In the excr-
else Of any unjust or arbitrary powers, neverthe-
less, experience has shown that IL Is inexpedient
% seek by Legislative enactmcntH To fix the rates
OF transportation.
L. That the practical work of transportation
being delegated by so many railroad companies
to special freight lines, frequently leads TO great
abuses and TO AN unnatural and unnecessary ad-
don 10 the cost OF transp0rtatic n, and that rail-
roads should either assume the direct control and
responsibility of their own business. or leave II
open 10 the competition OF all freight lines that
may undertake IL.
[ihe nth resolution, in reference to chartering
by the General Government Of any railway be-
tween the West and seabOard under proper re-
strctions, whenever private capital may under
take its construction, was, upon motion, iRdeh-
nely postponed.
8. That the Executive Council be instructed 10
communicate toy memorial 10 the legislatures OF
the several states the recommendations respect
ing state legislation, embraced IN the foregoing
resolutions; and, moreover, TO urge the several
constituent bodies in different cities % use their
influence 70 secure the adoption and enforcement
Of the principles herein enumerated
Resolutions were also adopted
!. To amend the National Banking law 40 as to
take from the Comptroller OF the Currency all
discretionary power.
2. That Congress be requested nj the earliest
possible moment TO provide for retiring ana de-
stroy ing the fractional currency and substituting
silver coin therefor.
3. hat as the fractional currency is largely in
excess of The needs of the country, the Secretary
Of thr Treasury be instructed TO redeem not less
