viz: growing scarcity. more marked
each year until the present. It is said
hardly lessee of any of the shores
will come out even this season unless
the catch for the remaining few days
proves exceptionally abundant. The
same complaint reaches us from rivers
north and south of US and unless the
two States named promptly interfere by
appropriate legislation to put stop to
the waste, the supply of fish food from
our rivers and bays must soon become
wholly extinct.
Some statements of Senator Blaine
at the recent tariff demonstration at
Che ster, Pa. are significant and Of COM
mon interest to every American citizen.
After referring to the strides we have
taken within the past 20 years in set
ting new States and Territories, the re-
sulting success of agricultural products;
to the line of railroads we have stretched
across the continent tracks running in
every direction and giving almost every
considerable community railroad facili-
ties I; to the extent and variety of manu-
facturies developed within that time,
he proceeds to show that in the matter
of our merchant marine we have been
reduced within the two decades from the
foremost rank we occupied in 1857 to
the condition of an inland nation, with
out sea coast or navigable rivers. At
the date first named American built
bottoms transported 100000, 900 worth
of our products to foreign markets while
the remaining s3oo,ooo,oo0 was carried
in foreign bottoms. Now it is almost
completely reversed, the tendencies all
being towards further decadence at
our expense. He dates its beginning
with the panic of 1857; and we had
only begun to recover when the war
and British pirates did the rest. No
change in our favor since has been pos
sible because of the rapid substitution
of the sailing vessel by the steamship,
which could be much more cheaply pro-
duced in foreign than in American
yards, and which had further advau-
tage in the subsidy policies of nearly all
foreign maritime governments.
The Senate has voted to adjourn May
10th but the House refuses and it is
predicted that if Mr.. Wood can commit
a majority of the latter to his tariff
readjustment scheme, no adjournment is
likely before August. Hardly any Of
the large Appropriation bills have YET
been reported to the House. Among
them are the Legislative. Executive and
Judicial bill and the Army bill, either
of which may consume full month in
the struggle over them between the
House and Senate. 1t also seems GER
tain that many Southern and Western
members will insist upon the enactment
of some sort Of an income tax law
Democrats appear to have grown less
timid about the Blair custer bushes;
and an increasing number seem to show
willingness to champion it through
the House, SO that it may also prove ;
source of delay. The sensation owe

AN ASTONISHING FAoT.-A large pro-
portion of the American people are to-day
dying from the effects of dyspepsia or
disordered liver. The result of these
diseases upon the masses of intelligent
and valuable people is most alarming,
making life actually burden instead Of
enjoyment and usefulness as it ought to
be. There is no good reason for this, if
you will only throw aside prejudice and
skepticism. take the advice of druggists
and your friends, and try one bottle of
Green's August Flower. You can buy a
sample bottle for 10 cents to try. Three
doses will relieve the worst case. Posi-
lively sold by all druggists on the West

about year ago number of horses
were shipped from this country to Eu-
rope as speculation. Since that time
the demand has been gradually growing,
until scarcely week passes that fifty
or more are not shipped by steamer.
They come mainly from Canada and
Western New York. Those already
sent have been purchased by the British
Government for cavalry service, and for
light and heavy road service. The An
Choir Line steamers took out for the
London and Glasgow markets last week,
100 horses, and the National Line
steamer Erin took out sixty-six for the
Liverpool market. Both Of the above
lines have room engaged for a large
number for Saturdays steamers.
