WASHINGTON, April 1.-THE Senate

which are to be embodied in a bill pre-
pared by Mr.. Allison and submitted to
the committee on Tuesday. These are
First, providing for the sale Of four per
cant funding bonds at par in legal tenders.
Ga this the committee was unanimous.
Second, directing that legal tenders shall
b received for customs duties after July

VOORHEES,; negative, Morrill,, Bayard;
absent, Dawes; not voting, Herman
Third, the repeal Of that part Of the re-
sumption act which requires the Secreta-

From The PhyhoIoEn and Family fhysissn.

GAnswer-They have been charged with

other INJURIOUS effects upon the stomach,

quote the opinions Of the following
v~ell-known authors upon this subject,
and would add that my own personal and
professional experience fully comedies
with the views herein presented.
DR.. Johnson says: We are convinced
BY many years. observation that very
many Of the diseases We are called upon
to treat, as dyspepsia, nervous and sick
headache, heart diseases, paralysis, cpl
lepsy, neuralgia, ETC., etc, are the legiti-
mate and certain fruit Of these narcotic
s~timulanta.
Hahnemann describes Anumber Of dis
eases induced by these beverages, and as
sures Us shat they are most %insidious
aud dangerous enemies, which slowly and
silently undermine the citadel Of life IL
self"
DR.. Bell says, expressly, that coffee has
a "pernicious effect upon the stomach,
bowels and nervous system generally"
DR.. shurtief, Of Boston, says, FOL all
the common beverages drank in society,
coffee il decidedly the worst"
Mr.. Graham declares that "both Tea
aad coffee are among the most powerful
poisons Of the vegetable kingdom"
DR.. Combe observes, that tea . col
fee not only ruin the stomach, but seri,.
ously derapge the health Of the brain n
nervous system."
Dr.. Teste says, that coffee Is responsi,
bic for six or seyen.tenths Of the neural

Oreslion-We often hear the term "tea'

Answer-Their number Is legioni they
are OF both sexes, but more Of women
than OF men. Instead OF nsing tea in
moderation, or rs an occasional beverage,
they swill Il down three or four times
a day, in quantities that are Incompatible
with health. They are as much slaves to
the teapot as the drunkard is to hii
bottle. They are tea.dTunkards. Tea, In
anything butgreat moderation, lisa poison
capable Of running the stomach, embedding
and disorderipg The hearts actien, shat
tering the nerves and running the health
and happiness Of the victim. In lev
words, Without holding that the use oil tea
is as bad as the use Of alcoholic liquors,
one may we'll believe that the total abb
stinence reformers have, in their red.hos
zeal agdinst rum, encouraged an IN
diligence in tea-drinking which will one
day have TO be fought against with might
and main to prevent the Wholesale ruin OIL

fined as one who drinks strong tea several

Shippers and passengers are taking to
the new road to Wheeling as naturally as

long-felt want Of a route running directly
into the heart Of the Nail City, without
the delays and dangers Of crossing rivers.
The new road takes the Panhandle track
a. far as steubenville, where II branches
of and runs through q delightful coun-
try until II lands right in the busy part
Of Wheeling, a before stated, making
quicker time by at least one hour than
any other road. The new road, we are
glad to note, Ia reeeiying that substantial
encouragement in the way Of passengers
and freight which the enterprising man.

no delays in transferring freight or any
thing Of that sort, and shippers are show.
