The Teleuh0ue.

That which would have seemed i'm
possible and miraculous q few years
since, Is now regarded as the le-
gitimate fruit of our mental develop
ment and inventive genius. The tele-
graph, submarine cable, and telephone,
have each In its Successive turn been
thought the crowning marvel Of the
age. That a speech pronounced in
Boston should report itself over the
wires to an audience in Brooklyn, and
a hymn played in New York should
be audible in Washington, is indeed
wonderful. But is 1t not equally won
derful that r. V. Pierce, NJ. D., OF Buff
falo, N. Y, can, through his peculiar
system of diagnosis, without seeing the
patient, obtain as accurate and perfect
q knowledge of most chronic diseases
as though he had made Q personal ex-
ANIMATION? And is il not reasonable
to suppose that as great progress has
been made in the occult sciences as in
the more tangible and readily-demon.
Istrated problems of metaphysics, where
each new invention is but biological Sc
quence of the one that preeedes it? The
failuIe of physicians to fulfill their
promises has created q widespread
feeling of distrust; but Is it right to
condemn all physicians because the
greed or ignorance of a Jeto induced
them to do wrong? Many are preju-
diced against DR.. Pierce's Family Med.
icines, and erroneously fancy them to
be 'cure-alis,' but has not the Doctor
repeatedly disclaimed their ability to
cure cancer, or give other than tempo
rary relief where the lung was hal
wasted away? By dealing fairly with
the people, he has earned their conf
dence, and built upa practice so larg'
in the treatment Of chronic diseases
that the erection of the Grand Inva.
lids Hotel, at Buffalo, N. Y, to &C
commodste his patients, became q ne
cessity. At an expense Of nearly hal
q million dollars he has erected tn
largest and most complete sanitariun
in the world -RuffalO Nawa

what the Debtors may Suffer.

DemagOgues who lead in attacks up
on the Nations credit, often represent
themselves as working in aid of the
debtor class, as against the creditor
class Of the community. The losses
by reputation will fall, they say, upon
the creditors; whatever is thus ab-
stracfed, by reduction Of the Nation
al debt Twill accrue to the debtors.
The dishonesty of this proposition is
obvious; its fallaey has been pointed
out In many ways. We propose to in
dicate how some portion of the loss
probably very large portion--will fall
upon debtors.
In case some of the measures for re-
pudiation become law, whether in the
form of the Silver Bill, or in more di
rect shape the moneyed institutions
of the country will be among the first
to feel the blow. A depreciation II
United States securities will, of course,
compel a contraction of their loans.
A very simple process OF addition will
show that the loans of State, National,
and savings banks, and of trust and in
surance companies, amount to more
than the whole bonded debt of the
United States. The debts of these debt
ors outrank the investments of the
bondhoiders, foreign and domestic. A
contraction Of the loans Of National
and State banks will fall heaviest on
the commercial community. It will
also render the bank securities which
ordinarily marketable at a profit,
unstable except alta loss. The Nat
toual banks will be in some trouble,
but'st that circumstance the regular
repudiating demagognei may rejaice.
