A New Telegraph Pr0iecf.

New YORK, Aug. 6.-[Boston Herald's Spe-
cial. 1.-The telegraphic Situation has considera-
bly, changed during the past few days, the chief
cause being the announcement of the incorpor-
alton of new and powerful Geographic oppo-
sition on the Pacific slope. The new company
is known as the National Telegraph Company,
and has just received its charter from the CALI
fornia Legislature. The incorporators are all
of them millionaires, and gentlemen of high
standing, Sharon of Nevada, being prominent
in the enterprise. 1t is also reported that Sen-
ator Jones is interested. The company will
push the work vigorously and will have their
lines up and in good working order by next
spring. The rates will be placed at such low
figure that must at once attract an immense
amount of business to the new line.
The effect of this on Wall street is already
visible, and it is now stated on what may be
accepted as good authority that there has been
change in the programme of Jay Gould in re-
gard to the amalgaInation of the Atlantic and
Pacific and Western Union Telegraph Compa-
MES. He has commenced to unload heavily his
telegraph stock, and the amalgamation scheme
may be regarded as virtually abandoned for the
present, as to carry it into effect will be giving
a large advantage to the new National COmpa-
ny, and would leave it clear field with no
competitor except the Western Union.

MANY who are suffering from the effects of the
warm weather and debilitated ARE advised by ply
scians to take moderate amounts of whiskey two or
three times during the day. In little while those
who adopt this advice frequently increase the num-
Der of ''drinks," and in time become confirmed in
ebriates. A beverage which will not create thirst
for intoxicating liquors. and which is intended espe-
ciay for the benefit of debilitated persons whether
at home or abroad, is DIR. Schencks Sea Weed Tonic
Containing the juices OF many medicinal herbs this
preparation does not create appetite for the in
toxicating cup. The nourishing and the life-sup-
porting properties of many valuable natural produc-
tons contained in it and well known to medical men
have the most strengthening influence. A single
bottle of the Tonic will demonstrate its valuable
qualities. For debility arising from sickness, over
exertion or from any cause whatever wine glassful
of Sea Weed Tonic taken after meals Will strengthen
the stomach and create an appetite for wholesome
food. To all who are about leaving their homes, we
desire to say that the excellent effects of DR..
Schencks seasonabe remedies, Sea Weed Tonic, and
Mandrake Pills, are particularly evident when taken
by those who injuriously afecte by change Of
water and Diet No person should leave home with
out taking supply of these safeguards along. For

NEW YORK.
Duucnu, shermnu.x Co,

NEW YORK, Aug 6.-Ignacio Mariscal, the
Mexican Minister, through counsel, has made
demand on Judge Shipman for nearly SIT 900
on deposit with Duncan, Sherman & Co. for the
Mexican government. Judge Shipman refused
to deliver the funds, and a suit will accordingly
be brought before the United States Supreme
Court to obtain that sum, on the ground that
the law of nations declares such money protect
ed by the same immunity as the persons of
foreign ministers.
A Washington special says that request
from Switzerland by cable to the Postm aster
General for the return of two registered letters
addressed to Duncan, Sherman & Co., New
York. was declined, the postal law preventing
