Shcrman's Resumption Policy.

Finding the honorable gentlemen IN

upon sOcle other subjects Of general
interest, and We asked him what he
thought Of Secretary Shcrman's re.
sumption policy and Of the success Of
bis present efforts towards that result
Mn. NuLESER-I have no doubt
Secretary Sherman will force Ills re.
sumption policy upon the country. lie
is madly bent upon it; he bag upwards
Of two hundred millions Of gold at bis
command; the banks arc ct bis back,
and the existing laws Of Congress give
him full autso ity to venture upon the
experiment. lie yaiu!y regards bis
fame as statesman. identified With the
fact Of resumption. But the question
that concerns us, is not what Slr.
Sherman muy do, but how will his act
affect The industrial and financial inter.
ests Of the country. In my opinion
pnfavOrably; not thu: the mere OK.
change at par Of greeubacks fos geld
will perccptibly affect the present
trade and business Of the nation; for
our depression is so deep that nothing
can well sink it lower; but because it
is triumph at the prcsent crisis-of a
mistaken policy-Of policy Of coutiu-
ped and continuing contraction, Instead
ofsuch reasonable expansion Of the
currency as would put into active en-.
ploymcn. the vast bu. nov Idle and
crushed energies Of this great nation.
The striking evil Of resumption is.ithat
it impairs, il it Dies not destroy, for
some years, wiser aad more progress.
sive financial system-one better
adapted TO the present depressed condi-
ton Of American labor and industry,
and better suited to tho wants and Dc.
mands Of this continent. If what is
called resumption is at any time u
sound policy, it cannot be so, when a
uatien is in the lowest condition OIL
peculiarly exhaustion, unless you arc
willing to coaccac, that tho interests Of
forty millions of people may be rcck
lcssly sacrificed to the triumph Of n
coutrovcrtcl, if not obsolete theory Of

| Forwood said.
Ut seems proper in this connection to re-
mark, for the consideration of those who
have not given much thought to the subject
that all the really eminent medical men in
this country, and indeed, in all countries
where medical science is cultivated, are
, members OF medical societies. 1t is only
the man who considers his education COM
plete, and the ignoramus who fears the ex
| posure of his ignorance from contact with
| his professional fellows, that are found ont
side OF the medical organizations. And
| this outside class generally attempt, in self
Justification, to make capital out of their
non-conncction, by insinuating motives of
greed and baseness as governing members
of medical societies broadly limiting that

money from the poor 1t is pitiable. in
deed, Tor any man, who himself Processes to
practice the ancient, honorable and Chart.
dOte profession of medicine, to attempt tn
injure his fellow-laborers by imposino in
this way upon the cupidity and crednlitv
of the ignorant If any testimony was re-.
CURED to properly brand these slanderous
charges, the life and character of DR.. Johm
EVans-the ardent supporter of medical
organizations as fountains of professional
knowledge-would of itself be a sufficient
refutation. Such men as DR.. Evans are
never found countenancing such baseness az
mas been attributed to members of medical
societies. Their whole lives-liycs of honor
ana rectltude, justice and charity-dis-
proves such venal motives the absence of
such qualities being the conspicuous char
acteristics of those who make the CHARGES.
We meet together to maintain our pleasant
social relations, and to receive from, and to
lmpart to each other, such professional in
formation as our individual experience has
proved to be of value; thus enabling our
patients to derive from each of us the bene
fits of our untted experience All glance
can thus sec the advantages possessed by
member of medical society over those
who seclude themselves from such sources
OF information"
Medicine, above all OTHER branches of
learning, Is PrOgreSsi0e. If man simply
gets his diploma, and then begins the prac-
tice OF medicine and does not read the
medical Literature of the day, or does not
meet with his brother physicians, he stops
IN his medical education just where he left
college. Therefore, you see, the great adj
yantages to be gained by being socia5Je;
That we may profit by each others exper-

The sun, like ruby set in gold,
Over the breast of the twilight burning,
Fastcns its mantle fold on fold
The sea like maidcn's face is glowing,
The sweet south wind is mcrrily blowing
Sill am sad, for summer is going
Summer is going-summcr is gonc
Never leaf on the tree is faded,
Never a blade of grass is sere
Gayer and brighter the flowers are shaded.
Falrcr and farer grows the year;
Only-who knows what my fancy is showing,
Only the roses no longer are growing
Only feel the summer is going
Summer is going-summer is gone
Brighter and brighter the skies are shining.
Deeper and deeper the fresh air thrills,
Larger and fuller the vines are twining
Clearer than ever the distant hills;
The full tides sweep in their cbbing and flowing
Nothing is lost that is worth the knowing,
Only feel that the summer is going
Summer is going-summcr is gone!
What do mourn Who knows for surely
Never was world more fit than now,

How Groceries are Adulterated.

Cream of Tartar is greatly and almost
universally adulterated. 1t is mixed with
the French white clay, terra alJa-nearly
90 per cent. being clay. This earth is also
largely used i'll the adulteration of candies.
1t is, OF course, utterly indigestible, hurtful
to the stomach. Many learned physicians
attribute much of the kidney and bladder
troubles to this and similar adulteration.
Ground spices are also largely adulter-
ated-some in a harmless way. Not 20
per cent, of these spices in the market are
absolutely pure. On the labels is usually
printed the word "pure," which technical
ly means impure. 'Strictly pure" is the
trade designation of some firms for abso-
lutely pure spices. Various ingredients
are used in these authorizations. Cloves are
mixed with ground burned cocoaput shell,
which is prepared and sold wholly for
adulterating purposes by large, respecta-
BILE (O New York firm. This shell is as
indigestible as so much wood or stone.
Black pepper is adulterated with buck
wheat hulls ground and col0red ginger is
mixed with ground peanut shells CHINA
mon with ground almond shells; so all
through the list. Teas are now but little
adulterated on account ofthe cheapness of
price. The fraud in these is confined to
the coloring process, which takes place
partly in this country and partly in China.
All green teas are colored and more or less
injurious to health Scarlet candies arc
colored by carmine, bug which is ground
up for this purpose. Sugar, molasses, hon
ey and even flour are adulterated, Flour
in this country is adulterated only with
white cornmeal ground very fine, but in
England it is adultcrated with terra alba.
Add to the above the adulteraton of
milk, in cities, and of many medicines, and
of beer and wine and other spirituous
drinks, making them twofold more deadly
than in their pure state, and it will be seen
that we have not overestimated the terrible
destructiveness to health and life wrought
by this cvil.-Metropolitan Pulpit
