himself, went to London, England, and became

was that required which could only be sup

purpose, he visited the greater portions of
North America, and the tropical regions of
South America, assiduously deyoting himself

A Triumph of Justice.

From the New Nork World, Feb. q.
In the Assembly of Wisconsin, last
week, lively discussion took pace upon
bill designed to levy tax upon the prem
iums paid and sums invested for life lnsur-
ance in that state. A few of the states in the
northwest still preserve this uncivilized meth
cd of raising revenue, by discouraging pru-
dence, taxing family affection, and cutting
down by excise the widows loaf and the or
phan's schooling. True the people are rap
idly becoming enlightened on the subject.
Michigan has reduced this tax within year;
Iowa is about to abolish or reduce it; in
Maryland, Ohio and Indiana the leading
statesmen are heartily ashamed of it, and
such great states as New York, Massa-
chusetts, Illinois and California have
never disgraced themselves by re-
sorting to It. But it was still thought or
threatened, by number of persons in Wis
consin, tnat there was popular prejudice
enough against particular companies en-
gagged in this business to carry an act which
would be oppressive to every holder OF
life policy in the state, and almost ruinous
to the companies. The gentlemen represent
ing the business met the attack in very
different way, perhaps, than that anticipated
by their assailants They appealed boldly
to the public intelligence and to the con
science of the Legislature and discussed the
whole subject in the light of public policy
The result is seen in the final vote of yester
day, in the indefinite postponement of the
bill; only twenty members could be found
to record themselves in favor of longer con-
sidering such scheme.
The effect of this victory will be felt be-
yond this year. and beyond the State Of
Wisconsin. 1t is mistake to suppose that
the people of this country are willing to see
injustice and oppression legalized, even
AGAINST COMBINATIONS et every financial
interest throw away all the unreasonable
fears which have too often led it to COM
promise unjust claims and assaults, or to
seek other means of opposing them than
open, manly discussion, and throw itself
for the guardianship of its rights upon the
intelligence of the people. This is safer
reliance for it than any other.

DR.. Scis>ick's Standard Remedies.

The standard remedies for all diseases of the
lungs are SCHENCKs PULMoNIC SYRUP, SCHENCK's
SEA WEED Tonic, and SCHENCK's MANDRAKE PILLS,
and, if taken before the lungs are destroyed, a
speedy cure is effected.
To these three medicines DR.. J. II. Schenck OF
Philadelphia, owes his unrivalled success in the
treatment of pulmonary diseases.
The PulmOnic Syrup ripens the morbid matter
in the lungs; nature throws it off by an easy ex-
pectoration, for when the phlegm or matter is
ripe slight cough will throw it off, the patient
has rest and the lungs begin to heal.
To enable the PulmOnic Syrup to do this,
Schenck's Mandrake Pills and Schenck's Sea
Weed Tonic must be freely used to cleanse the
stomach and liver. Schencks Mandrake Pills
act on the liver, removing all distractions, relax
the gall bladder, the bile starts freely, and the
liver is soon relieved.
Schencks Sea Weed Tonic is gentle stmulant
and Alternative the akaii of which it is composed,
mikes with the food and prevents souring. 1t as
sists the digestion by tonng up the stomach to a
healthy condition, so that the food and the Pull
monte Syrup will make good blood; then the lungs
heal, and the patient will surely get well if care
is taken to prevent fresh cold.
All who wish to consult DIR. Schenck, either
personally or by letter, do SO ct his principal
office corner of SIXTH and ARCH Sis, Philadel
phia every Monday.
Schencks medicines are sold by all druggists
throughout the country

Grandeur of the Deposed King of Dude.

Kings out of business are usually an
unhappy set, and the deposed King. of
Dude, who held sway in India before
England took possession, appears to be
no exception to the rule. The palace
and grounds provided for the deposed
monarch by the British government
extend one mile on the rivers bank in
Calcutta, with width of about one
eighth of a mile. There is the main
palace nearly in the centre with smaller
palaces elsewhere; there is long line
of magnificent stables; there are a
hundred or more small houses along
the street side, occupied by the Kings
retainers, numbering 400 in all; there
are fountains and pagodas and other
fanciful structures on the grounds in
side; there is a large pigeon house for
the flock of more than a thousand of
these birds, which are trained to fly in
one direction and another as their
keeper waves his flag; there are
walks, lawns and gardens artistically
laid out, with a wonderful show of or
namented trees, growing fruit and
beautiful flowers. For distance of a
mile there is the exhibition of garden
culture in varied forms of artistic skill
and magnificent effects. The snake
pagoda is curiosity. Every variety
Of poisonous reptiles, hundreds of
them, are seen through glass crawling
and coiling themselves throughout

vised The King of Dude is really a
prisoner held in state. He is granted
an allowance of $4,000 a year by the
British government. He spends all
that, and ran so deeply in debt year
ago that the government came to the
relief of its prisoner, granting him sew
eral thousand pounds to liquidate his
liabilities, at the same time warning
his deposed majesty that he must in
future try to get along with his allow
ance of 1856 day for the mainte-
nance of his regal establishment. The
ex-King is considerably advanced in
years; is said to be disconnected with his
lot; is sour in temper, and so far as he
dares to do so, exhibits the deep hatred
he cherishes toward the Europeans and
white people generally.

Oxide of Iron and Combustion.

The statement is made that when OK
ide of iron is placed in contact with tim
Der, excluded from the atmosphere,
and then aided by slightly increased
atmosphere, the oxide parts with its
oxygen, and is converted into very fine
ly divided particles of metallic iron,
these latter having such an affinity for
oxygen that when afterward exposed to
the action of the atmosphere, from any
cause, the gas is absorbed SO rapidly
that these particles rapidly become red
hot, and if in sufficient quantity, will
produce a temperature far beyond the
ignitable point of any timber. From
this it is argued that whenever iron
pipes are employed for the circulation
of hot water, air or steam, and when in
close contact with timber, are allowed
to become rusty, it is only necessary to
suppose that, under these circumstan-
ces, the finely divided particles of me-
tallic iron become exposed to the action
of the atmosphere, In order to account
for not few of the many fires which,
it is well known, take place at the COM
mencement of the winter season.
