High Salries.

The raising of Beecher' salary to $780,
900 year gives him the largest compen
sation IN the Union. But one salary In
the world transcends it-that of tie viceroy
Of India, which is $4,000, or $3.50, 900 a
year, Though it is possible the salary of
Lord Dafferin, as Governor General Of
Canada, is 10000, or $4,000 a year.
The ambassadors of Great Britain at Paris
and Vienna receive but $4,000 a year.
We are told that III. B. Claan pays his

more value than ten per. pro liable to Clafin
to pay less than two per cent. upon his

CHERRY PICTORIAL will and does relieve and
cure the affecting disorders of the Throat and
Lungs beyond any other medicine. The most
dangerous affections of the Pulmonary Organs
yield to its power; and cases of Consum ption,
cured by this preparation, are publicly known,
90 remarkable as hardly to be believed, were
they not proven beyond dispute. As a remedy,
it is adequate, or which the public may rely
for full protection. By curing Coughs, the
forerunners of more serious disease, it saves I'M
numbered lives, and an amount Of suffering not
to be computed. 1t challenges trial, and con-
rinces the most sceptical. Evel family should
keep it on hand as a protection against the early
and unperceived attack of Pulmonary Alice
tions, which are easily met at first, but which
become incurable, and too often fatal, if neg
lected. Tender lungs need this defence; and it
IS unwise to be without it. As safeguard to
children, amid the distressing diseases which
beset the Throat and Chest of childhood, CHERRY
PICTORIAL is Invaluable; for, by its timely use,
and saved to the love and affection centred on
them. 1t acts speedily and surely against ord-
nary colds, securing sound and notwithstanding
sleep. No one viii suffer troublesome Influ-
enza and painful Bronchitis. when they know
how easily they can be cured.
Originally the product of long, laborious, and
successful chemical investigation, no cost or toll
is spared in making every bottle in the utmost
possible perfection. 1t may be confidently relied
upon as possessing all the virtues it has ever
exhibited and capable of producing cures as
memorable as the greatest it has ever effected.

Every year increases the popularity of
this valuable Hair Preparation which is
due to merit alone. We can assure our
oldpatrons that it is kept fully up to its high
standard; and it is the only reliable and
perfected preparation for restoring GRAY
OR FADED HAIR to its youthful color, max
ing 1t soft, lustrous, and silken. The
scalp, by its use, becomes white and clean.
1t removes all eruptions and dandrufi, and,
by its tonic properties, prevents the hair
from falling ont, as it stimulates and
nourishes the hair glands. BY Its use, the
hair grows thicker and stronger. In bald
ness, it restores the capillary glands to
their normal vigor, and will create a new
growth, except in extreme old age. 1t is
the most economical HAIR DRESSING ever
used, as it requires fewer applications, and
gives the hair splendid, glossy appear

York Sun asserts that Senator Came
ron owned the Lancaster (Republican)
Convention, ran It, dictated its plat
form and candidates, and manages the
campaign. it is hardly necessary to
say that he Is the raggedest kind OF
rug-money man. The issue, then, IN
Pennsylvania Is, whether the people
shall have any money at all which
may not be taxed out Of their pockets
to swell the spells Of thieves IN oliice ;
whether Government shall be main
tanned to protect the governed, or simply
to plllage them. The coming election IN
Pennsylvania will determine whether
that State will continue TO be debauch-
ed and robbed by the Treasury Ring,
which for the past ten years have
made it their prey, and whether this
great nation is TO remain Il prey to the
larger ring which President Grant is
the head OF. That is the real issue In
Pennsylvania, and the campaign is
being vigorously fought on that line,
J 1t ia the issue upon which the glorious
victories of 1874 were SO brilliantly
won, and every honest and true patriot
ct must stand on our side, and every
corrupt and thieylng robber on the

the majority in Pennsylvania against
Grant and corruption will be large

triots heart, and send terror into

Editor OF tho journal of Commerce;
New YORK, October II, 1875. Will
you please favor us with your decision
in the following case: In accordance
with the rites of our persuasion, we
were closed on Saturday last, but took
the precaution TO place n notice on our
door stating, "Closed on account of
holiday. Any drafts please hold over
until Monday II appears n draft
was presented by the National Bank
of Commerce Tor the sum of fifty dol
lars, but in spite Of our notice was pro-
tested for the reason "said place being
closed for the day" This (Mondayl
morning our certified check was sent,
but refused until one dollar and thirty
one cents protest charges was exacted,
which, to avoid controversy and waste
of time, we paid. win You oblige us
by stating If protest fees could be col
lected by law under the above circum-
stances? Yours respectfully,
u. II. a. ~ co.
In reply to the above, the Jom9tal Of
Commerce says:
1t instead of n certified check, legal
tender notes had been rendered to the
holder of the obligation, the protest
fees could not be eXacted. 1t il time
that our notaries understood, If they do
not, that lsraelites have the right to
close their places of business on their
recognized holidays, and such a notice,
under the circumstances, was quite
sufficient to exempt them the costs of
protest upon u draft not yet accepted.
Acceptances andpromissory notes must
be provided for beforehand as is done
for business paper due on Sunday but
n draft can not be legally protested for
non. acceptance because the drawee
has his place of business closed upon
holiday commonly recognized 10y II

Bills says; "No acceptance can be re.
quired, and no presentment for accep-
lance be regularly made q
upon any day which is a holiday, or is

orreligious purposes, such as Saturday,
