This Sarsaparilla is a combination Of
vegetable MISUNDERSTANDING Man
drake Y elbow Dock-with the Iodides
of Potassium and Iron, and is the
most efficacious medicine yet known
for the diseases it is intended to cure.
Its ingredients are SO skilfully
combined that the full Alternative
effect of each is assured, and while
it is so mild as to be harmless even
to children, it is still so effectuaI as
to purge out from the system those
impurities and corruptiOns which
develop into loathsome disease.
The reputation it enjoys is derived
from its cures, and the confidence
which prominent physicians all over
the country repose in it proves their
experience of its usefulness.
Certificates attesting its virtues
have accumulated, and are con-
stantly being received, and as many
Of these cases are publicly known,
they furnish convincing evidence of
The superiority of this Sarsaparilla
over every other Alternative medicine.
So generally is its superiority to any
other medicine known that we need
do no more than to assure the public
that the best qualities it has ever
possessed are strictly maintained.

sold at a great sacrifice, and the business Of
the firm was broken up. After long litiga-
tion Judge Blatchford, Of the United States
District Court, has decided that the forfeiture
In the case was incur red without willful
negligence or intention Of fraud on the part of
the firm; that they have been irreparaby in
iured by the proceedings Of the United States
against them, and submits to the decision of
the Secretary of the Treasury whether under
the facts and circumstances cited by the
judge In his report and decision Of the
case, the forfeiture shall be enforced or
remitted. Looking at the case In its worst
aspect, the firm were guilty merely of a tech
meal violation of the revenue law. Many
other firms were ut the time pursuing ident-
cally the same course" none of them," says
the journal of Commerce, dreaming that
what they did was an nfraction of any law"
Az a matter Of course Secretary Sherman has
felt it to be his duty to remit the forfeiture
But Messrs. Wellington, Kidder q Go. are
still made to pay all the fees and expenses In
cidental to the forfeiture, and to sustain the
whole of the loss accruing from the property
sacrificed 1t appears to be case of great
hardship, for there are no means whereby the
firm can obtain indemnity for their losses and
the destruction of their business except
through an appeal to Congress.
The Boston Shipping List says of wool
There Is very little change In the wool
market. Demand steady and prices remain
unchanged. The recent purchases of fine
fleeces have materially reduced stocks Of this
description, and there Is now less pressure to
sell. There Is also considerable Indifference
on the part of buyers, but from the advices
that reach us from San Francisco, Texas and
other points where new wool isavailabe, this
indifference is limited to Eastern markets.
All the new wool offering In the interior so
far has been largely bought up at high prices,
but unless an Improvement takes place In
goods we do not see how wool can be forced

Incidentally, the London Times mentions a
fact in Its financial columns that shows the
direction of German sympathies in the dis
pute between England and Russia 1t says
that, In Berlin, enormous quantities of Rus
sian bonds, rouble notes, and other obliga-
tionS have been sold. The Russians have
there found the market they could not find
In London or Paris. The refusal of London
and Paris to buy the Russian securities, and
the opposite action of Germany, reveals the
drift Of national sympathes.
