that something must DO done to relieve
themselves Of the present pressure, but tho
question Ia, What? At O meeting yesterday
two pooling plans we're submitted, not tlif-
fering widely, but standing on their merits
for practcability. One WIS tho syatcm
adopted BY tho Buffalo Convention, to with
draw about one-halt the tonnage, each own.
or to pay percentage Of receipts into the
hands OF treasurer, and the pool to be dis
tributed among tho vessels in proportion to
carrying capacity. The other plan pro-
posed that tho propeller lines with
draw tonnage proportionate to tho amount
Of sail capacity in excess of the demand;
that all vessols bo registered, tariff Of rites
be established, and = superintendent ap-
pointed to charter vessels in their turn. Not
great deal Of interest waa manifested in
oithor scheme, but tho buffalo plan was
adopted with apathetic unauimity.

A few years ago august Flower

for Dyspepsia and Liver Complaint,
a few thin Dyspeptics made known to
their friends how easily and quickly
they had been cured by its use. The
great merits of GREENS AUGUST Flow,
FIR became heraded through the
country by one sufferer to another, I'M
till, without advertising, its sale has
become immense. Druggists in EV.

selling it. No person suffering with
Sour Stomach, Sick Headache, cos
tiveness, palpltation Of the Heart, In.

funeral gotten up with less pomp and
display than on that occasion, If !
had my choice, to either work in a
nitro-glyceriue factory, or take care of
a mule, I should go for the factory, as
in case of an explosion, there would
be more possibility of my friends find

which to assuage their grief A very
