The constant Inflammation and liberation in my
throat caused by the poisonous matter dropping
down from my head had so irritated and Unnamed
my lungs that coughed incessantly-a deep, hard
cough. Meanwhile my system began to show the
effects OF this disease, that lost flesh, grew pale

Consumption. When matters had reached this
stage, or about six months ago, began the use OF
SANFORD's RADICAL CURE FOR CATARRH.

ENGLAND AND CHISA.-Mr. Wade, the
British Minister in China, has given to
the foreign legations his own account Of
his recent negotiations with the Pekin
Cabinet, and. as he presents it, his
course appears to be well taken in the
interest of all nations whose subjects
trade with the Chinese in their own
country. But it would be premature to
accredit England with a general cham
pionship of the commerce of Western
Powers until we hear what the Chinese
say on this subject. In their report We
shall probably see the peculiar kink in
the coil which twists the negotiation in
the special interest Of British at the e1-
pense Of other traders.

THERE is something startlingly sug-
ges,ive in the story told by an exchange
of a man in San Jose who holds note
for 81 900 drawing 10 per cent. interest,
the interest to be compounded monthly.
The note has been running 29l months,
and the principal and interest amount
now to the fabulous sum of a quadrillion
of dollars. So the story runs. and wheth-
er true or false, whether the interest has
been correctly calculated or not. there is
something in it TO set man thinking.
What is TO become Of the mass of man
kind if this adding up of millions in the
grasp of one man, or one firm, Is to 60

such fortunes as Astor's, Eanderbilt's
and Stewards go on for few genera
tons increasing as they have done for
the last fifty years. what will be the chance

can't What is to hinder them from
doing so :: or. rather, what is there in
our system OF government which does
net make it easy for them to do so?
There is nothing to check the growth of
such nonstrosities save the providence
which has hitherto placed such fortunes
in the hands Of spendthrift heirs, who
have scattered in dissipation what their
fathers have won by usury.

Mr.. kELLY's SERMON. Rev. S. P.
Kelly preached sermon at the Episco-
pal Church last evening, which was one
of the most sensible, forcible and eio-
quent sermons we have ever listened to.
and which is highly spoken of by all
who had the pleasure of listening to it.
The parson is an eloquent talker and a
fine elocutionist. and his preaching has
the merit of terseness and brevity. He
strikes right at the center, without any
circumlocution, and thereby avoids the
rock on which so many clereymen split !;
to wit: tediousness.-R.R r. Reredle, 25th.

NIL DESPERANDCN.

The Enterpris. is not quite full size
this morning. Only by the courtesy OF
some kind friends are We permitted 10
put in any appearance at all to-day.
There was a CONFUSION in Virginia City
Yesterday A breath of hell melted the
main portion of the town to ruins. Our
eyes are still lazed by the lurid glare /;
our ears are still ringing with the chaos
of sounds of great city passing away
on the whirlwind of storm Of fire. As
the sun arose yesterday morning it turned
to purple and the smiling features of the
most prosperous city on earth. Before
the sun set last night. the greater por-
ton of that city had disappeared and
men and women and little children, by
hundreds and thousands. knew not
where to get n morsel of food, or where
to lay their heads. The catastrophe is
appalling. Men give and receive cheer
full salutations as they meet, and brave
women smile out of countenance the
hard fate that has overtaken them but
the heartacheS are sore, nevertheless.
We know our people will rally from this
blow: that, though houses have disap-
peared and vaults have been rent open
by the fire. away down under the RUNS
there Is a treasure safe which will re-
build our city more staunch and fair
than it was before. But that promise of
the future does not make lighter the
suffering of the awful present, and We
beseech from this generous coast full
measure OF their sympathy for our poor.
Those who yesterday would have gladly
helped them are poor themselves to-day.
An Indictment winter is close upon us
there are many hundreds here who have
neither houses nor food. They are a
strong. brave race. and if California can
furnish work for them, they will give q
better return for thei- wages than any
other people on earth. Meanwhile. fer
our people generally there is nothing TO
do but to 60 TO work. The calamity
looks st its worst to-day. Millions of
dollars above ground will back the mil
lions below. The shafts to the great
mines are uninjure3 many of the
wrecked engines can be reavakened. and
in a few weeks the old harmonious clam
or will again be heard. and prosperity
will come back to us. The whole coast
will be more or less affected by this ca
tastrophe. Our mine owners under
stand this, and will strain every nerve
to as swiftly rs possible bridge this
chasm which has opened at our feet
Their lis nothing to despair about, and
We have not been in this desert for years
without learning something of the virtue
which suffers without complaining. The |
winds and the flames conspired against |
our city yesterday. bat neither .empests
nor fire can prevail against steadfast |
souls, and oil the scars of yesterday can |
be erased Virginia Enterprise 27M.

GUIBoRD.-This defunct parsonage is
certainly the most exciting dead man
they ever had in Montreal, or, perhaps,
in any other city; and there is yet fair

in his journey to the other world by the
souls of as many slaughtered persons az

III the qualities Of courage and forti-

men stood upon the streets of Virginia

property disappear, and their families
with few articles of clothing hastily
knatched from the flames, enforced to

True, faces were little white. and once
in a while some stout hearted mans lips

only to strengthen, gathered their chill

Mackav resided in this county. at or

acquired the business of mining, and
he used to work i'll a tunnel there for

was something of a boss ofthat tunnel.

notice by DR.. Dougall. a medical officer
of the Indian government, and was st
first received with much skepticism by
the medical profession; but the results
Of an extended series of cases treated
with gungun balsam have been SO en-

Of DR.. Walkers Vinegar Bitters cannot

repeated. 1t is a certain vegetable
