ance in constant dread of raid by the
police, that large fraction of New York,
which may be called its amusement
population" has to look elsewhere for
entertainment. And SO there comes
along just in the nick of time a wonder
full marksman who draws crowds to
watch him perform impossibilities with
powder and lead. The name of this new
wonder is Carver-Dr. Carver of San
Francisco though, why he is called
CDR" is more than can tell, unless it
is on account of the facility with which
he could kill people if he wished to.
There is certainly nothing of the M. D.
in his appearance. Dressed In ultra
western costume, with flannel shirt and
leather belt, his hair flowing down over
his shoulders from beneath his big SOM
brero, la Buffalo Bill and Texas Jack,
(by the latter of which bloodthirsty
worthless he is accompanied) the great
rifeman looks much more like the con-
ventional dime novel hero than like the
peaceful professor of healing that his
title would indicate.
On the fourth, Carver gave a grand
exhibition of his powers at the Brooklyn
driving park. am almost afraid to SUBJ
NIT my general reputation for truth and
veracity to the strain of telling what he
did, but I must risk instancing few of
his feats. His sole weapon is a repeat
ing rife which shoots twenty shots with
out reloading. He commenced by shoot
ing glass balls thrown into the air some
40 feet away. Of these he broke 100
in about three minutes. Then Texas
Jack began throwing trade dollars for
targets, and these were unerringly bored
by the doctors bullets. One of the COINS
thrown was Mexican dollar, and as it
rose into the air some one called out to
him to cut out the liberty cap which
adorns its face. No sooner said than
done for when the silver was picked
up moment later the cap was found to
have been cut out as though with CHS
ell. For an hour all sorts of little arti-
Giles were sent upward and nine-tenths
of them knocked to flinders by the mag
ical marksman. RADIx.

Secretary Sherman has written anoth-
er letter to Potter, in which he repeats
his request for permission to introduce
testimony relative to the outrages in the
Feliciana parishes. In view of the fact
that Weber has been given full scope to
deny the existence of terrorism at the
Presidential election, Mr.. Sherman very
justly claims the right to introduce evil
dence to prove that shameful outrages
were perpetrated on Republicans to pre-
vent fair and full ballot.

A defensive treaty has been formed
between England and Turkey, for the
maintenance and integrity of the Sultan's
Asiatic dominions. England is to pro-
tect them against invasions, the first
step in the agreement being the occupa-
ton of Cyprus by Great Britain. Sir
Garnet Wolseley is to be made governor
of the island, and will soon proceed
thither to administer its affairs. If at
any time Russia restores Batoum, Kars
and Ardaham to Turkey. England en-
cages to evacuate the island and termin-
ate the treaty.

A CARD.

Editor Monitor
Permit me to inform your readers that on the occas-
ion of this my first visit to Barton feel that few
explanatory remarks in regard to my profession and
the circumstances which induce me to come. are due
my professional career. my time and attention has
been exclusively devoted to the study and investigation
of diseases of the NASAL CAVITY, THROAT, LUNGS
and CHEST; to affections of the EYE and EAR, and
arrangements of the NERVOUS SYSTEM. My spec
ialty embraces the eradication of CONSUMPTION,
CATARRH, THROAT DISEASES. AFFECTIONS of
the VOCAL ORGANS, ASTHMA, and all LARYNGIAL
BRONCHIAL and PULMONARY COMPLAINTS !;
the removal of DEAFNESS, DISCHARGES from the
EAR, and the treatment of all diseases leading to
GENERAL DEBILITY, EPILEPSY, or to the loss or
impairment of NERVOUS and PHYSICAL POWERS.
During the past few months have been daily in
receipt of letters from parties in Barton and vicinity
who though anxious to consult me- avowed their ina
bity to come to Newport for treatment. Anxious to
wishes of these applicants but convinced Of
the uselessness and danger of prescribing without
previous personal examination. finally determined
making professional visit to Barton day in each
week. in order to afford such persons opportunity
of consulting me in their more immediate vicinity.
In every case coming for examination candid opn.
ion will be given to the probability of cure and nc
case will be accepted for treatment which does moi
offer reasonable chance of success. To save unnec
essary correspondence wish it to be distinctly under
stood that person will be prescribed for without
previous personal examination.
In conclusion, permit me to assure the public thai
invalids coming under my care may expect to receive
every benefit guaranteed by SCIENCE. SKILL, and
comprehensive experience.

The revenues of the country for the
fiscal year just ended were less than
those of the year before by about eleven
millions, and more than eight millions
of this loss was due to a falling off in
the receipts from internal revenue. The
ordinary expenditures for the year, ex-
elusive of interest on the public debt,
were nearly six millions less than those
of the preceding year. That was the
year for which the democrats boasted
that they had saved thirty millions by
cutting down the appropriations. The
actual saying. it will be observed, is
much less, about one-6fth of that claim.
ed. About fifteen millions of the thirty
said to have been saved was accounted
for by the deficiency bills which have
been passed since last October. The
debt was reduced during the year by
about twenty-four and ene.third millions
For the year now begun the revenue Ii
is exnected to be less and thn Arnendi
ture greater, and it is hardly probable
that the debt will be diminished at all.

MY MET HOD
FOR THE
Cure of CATARRH.

Like great many other troublesome offensive or
obstinate Diseases Catarrh bears the unenvabe repu
aon of being ncurable In the hands of the general
practitioner it doubt proves So a very great
tent because do pay the requisite attention
to it, while others have not the facility to obtain in
formation or experience in the treatment of such
affections having but limited practice in that drec
ton; hence after prescribing without success the
rounds of remedies usually recommended in medical
textbooks they dismiss the patient with the comfort
able assurance that Catarrh is incurable. Relying
upon such sagacious counsel it is too frequently the
case that Catarr Is allowed to run its fatal
until it is too late.
That Catarrh is curable if properly treated, can
furnish abundant evidence from my practice. and
will be pleased to submit to those interested. any
specability residing here and hereabouts. who have
been cured by me of this dangerous disorder.
To be able to treat Catarrh successfully. much

first place received thorough medical education, and

Solicitor Kenneth Rayn0r, OF the Trca-
-rirv DEPARTMENT 1T Washington, has written
a long letter to Secretary sherman explain
ing his opinion in favor OF the Richmond
and Dauvillc Railroad Company against the
War Department. He shows that The claim.
which was for SlI,3l4.25, was allowed by
the Secretary OF War III October, 1873; that
in March. 1876. the Secretary OF the Irea-
sury certified the claim to Congress, and
Congress accordingly passed an act for Its
payment; that the Secretary OF the Irea-
Aury transmitted it to the Secretary or war
for warrant to pay il. but before final ac-
1ion WAS taken q new Secretary OF War,
new quart ermastergencral,a new second
COMPTROLLER. and new third auditor had
come into office; il was by them reviewed,
and they recommended settlement at less
than one bali the above amount, notwlth-
standing tie action OF Congress. Mr.: Ray
nor here shows that he did not decide upon
The merits OF the claim, but upon the law
points involved, and thus disposes OF the
charge that he gave to southern road
larger rate OF compensation than was al
lowed to northern roads. His opinion, ne
says, cannot afford any precedent Tor the al
lowance OF claims that may be preferred by
other southern roads.

4 dispatch from Chippewa station says
that a sudden darkness feii upon the place,
accompanied by death-like stiffness and an
atmosphere so light that respiration seemed
difficult. Suddenly the tornado struck the
town with indescribabie force, lasting but
few moments, yet in those few moments it
utterly swept away every structure In the

darkness and stiffness, had taken refuge in
their cellars, and In consequence there were
few fatal casualties. A wagon-maker named
Price, with bis wife aud infant; are injured,
the latter fatally. Miss Thomson is serious
" injured. Many others are hurt, but not
fatally. Johnston's store was demolished

damage to the mill and other property was
about $1,000. The roof of the depot was
also blown of, and considerable damage
done to cars on the track at that place.
