He wanted to sell Mr.. LAwton some

the States, and then he should get what
he sent for. Mr.. L knows the best
and most reliable nurserymen in the
Eas:, and if the people of this vicinity
should 3. any time want anything
that he has not got. they could do
better to get him to send for it, than
send themselves. 1t looks very strange
that the people of Seattle should send
away for so many things that they can
buy at home.

the country, is to encourage home in

serious impression both in Berlin and
St. Petersburg. 1t is q question whether
the Porte, by admitting foreign men
of-war, doesn't give Russia .he right to
march on Constantinople. All may de-
pend upon which power can telegraph
the soonest to the seat of war. If the
Russians, they may bring an influence
to bear on the Porte to refuse the pas
sage of the British feet.
Dispstche, from Constsntinople re-
ceived Saturday night deny that the
Porte has granted permission, which
locks as though England had applied
for fresh Truman. 1t is rumored that
Austris has instructed her ambassador,
Count Zechy, to apply for a firman to
admit Austrian vessels if the English
fleet is admitted.
A special to Berlin says Prince Gorts-
chakoff has notified the powers that the
English cabinet has resolved to send a
fleet to Constantinople ostensibly to
protect Christians. Russia also contem-
plates occupying Constantinople from
the land for the same object.

FRUIT TREE PEDLARS.

SEATTLE, Feb. l1tb, 1873.
Ed. INTELLIGENCER: II desire to
say few words to your readers about

representing a nursery firm in Ohio, 40
he said that he is from there. but that
is question. We will suppose such
to be the case. or suppose he tells the
truth. I believe that place to be too
far away to get trees and shrubbery
from. and Mr.. Lawton tells me that he
loses more than fifty per cent. of what
he sends for, and I believe that, too ;
and the next thing is. . great many
varieties that do well in the States are
OF no use in this climate, and q great
many varieties that do well here, are of
no use in the States. If people could
get the things out from the States in
good shape. aud get varieties that are
adapted to this climate, it would be q
different thing, but then it is a great
deal better to patronize the nursery at
home. particularly when you can get
things great deal cheaper; and Mr..
Lawton says he has some of the things
that that pediar has to sell For in
stance. he has strawberries for Sc per
hundred. that the pedlar is selling for
two or three dollars q dozen; and Mr..
Lawton has choice rose trees for 81 each
that be charges IS for. That's the way
people do here rather pay FIVE dollars
for . thing abroad than buy it at home
ard pay 81 for it, l am inclined to
think the things 30 raised in California
are useless here. for that is q warmer
climate to bring them from than China.
There 10 gentleman living at Smiths
Cove. m old nurseryman. who tcld Mr..
Lawton. he was living in California
last year, and there was . pedlar there
year ago selling trees and shrubbsry,
representing m Ohio nursery, and q
party who bought rosss of that Ohio
nurseryman got Mr.. Hoskinson to bud
them again, and they proved to be COM
men roses. when they came to blossom.
Mr.. Lawton asked this Ohio pedlar
why he did not go through California,
instead Of coming here. as he told him
those thugs which he pretended to sell
would do better in California than
here. The fact of the matter is simply
THE. he is afraid to 60 there again; but
he told Mr.. Lawtou that money was
too scarce there. on account of the dry
weather. Here, in Seattle. he gocs to
Mr.. PinkhAm, and eudeavors to dispose
of some pear trees. of . certain variety,
to him. That gentleman informed the
p'edlar that be had previously purchased
pear trees of Mr.. LAwton. This ped
lar endesvored to make Mr.. Pinkham
believe that he was SURE Mr.. Lawton
did not have that variety. thus falsely
conveying tho idea that Mr.. Lawton
had deceived HIM. A gentleman, one
day. asked Mr. L. Why he did not pub
lish book with pictures Of many "a.

WANTED.-AN ORPHANAGE.

The need of an asylum for the chill
dren Of mon who die suddenly and
make no provision for those who bear
their name, has been felt by more than
one person interested in the growth and
advancement Of our city. Some are of
the opinion that such movement is a
little premature, and that our city is
tos young 10 support such sn institu-
ton. Bat when We see California
towns like Grass vslley and Yreka.
with populations not exceeding 320e
AMI 1.sso respectively. we think Seattle
with her four thousand people ought to
be able to support a. least one such in
stitution, ii not two.
The Roman Catholics have always
made this branch Of good work o
speciality 10 their religion. Under
their fostering care. many poor children
have been rescued from poverty and
destitution and brought up to lead
lives Of usefulness and purity. These
asylums have been aided greatly by
the wealthier congregations in the
Eastern cities. source Of assistance
which hiss proven very effective in che
primitive society Of the Pacific coast.
We believe thst . combined move
ment Of the lady members Of the sew
srAl Protestant Churches in Seattle
would soon result in the establishment
OF an institution Of the kind ct this
plsce which would i,s . credit TO our
city. aud . benefit to this entire section
Of country. There arc scores Of bust
mess men in this city who would will
lingly give twenty dollars per snnum
for the support Of such IN institution,
and some of them even more. Portland
had an orphanAge in successful opsr-
alton when she was no larger than
Seattle, and it il now one of the most
prosperous charitable institutions on
the coast.
We suggest the formation of such .
society composed Of board of direct
ors. composed Of one lady from each Of
the Protestant denominations in Ee-
attic. The officers should be chosen by
the board from among their own mum
Der. Each Of the congregations could
take up & semi-annnsl collection in
church for the aid of the Asylum, oro-
vided that no two congregations collect
on the Same Sunday. There is no
donbt but aid to the institution would
be regularly contributed by tho several
Lodges Of Masons and Odd Fellows
about tho Sound. if solicited in the
proper. WY.
We want to sec no girls growing up
to shame and ruin. just bscanso they
have no mothers to warn them against
temptation; We want no boys growing
up to ko0dlumism, because their faith
ers are not living to correct them when
they sway towards the wrong. Much
evil in this respect might b. sverted by
providing home where INDECENT chill

tion. aud 1t the proper time. bound out

yellow Fever preventive.

10 the Editor of the NO. Democrat:
My own experience and investi-
cations relating to yellow fever In
duce me to lay before your readers
the following prophylatic against
the disease in question:
No. l-R. Sulph. qninine, 36
grains; glycerine, 6 minims. Make
into IL pills. s. One pill three
times daily, immediately after eat
lug, or
No. 2-Sulph. quinine, 24grains;
glycerine, 6 minims. Make into
IL pills.
Following are the rules to be
"bsel we'd in deciding between No.
aud No. 2: Where the urine is
nigh cniorea or even slightly so,
take No. l aud continue to take it
until the urine assumes its natural
color. This secured, then COM
mence No. 2 at once and take one
pill three times daily in the same
way. This last must be kept until
all danger has been over past, j. e.,
until frest. II, however, the urine
should at any time become high
colored, or even slightly so, stop
No. 2 and take No l, until this
condition has been overcome, and
then retdrp to No. 2 again.
The surine must BIZ carefully
watched aud be the guide in the
use of No, 4 or No. 2.
Ii you think proper to give this
publicity, ] will suggest that the
Board of Health, commencing Que
week after its publication, inquire
of all who take theifeyer thereafter.
whether they followed these direc-
tons or not. i will add, in con.
clusion, that [ suggested this pro-
phylatic to DR.. Martin, Of the Ca
nonicus, and be expressed to me
his purpose to try it at once. His
experiment in this regard will be
very valuable and Instructive. For
children. sulph. quinine, Is grs;
powdered lactopetine. Is grs; su-
gar of miik, Is grs Mix, make
into thirty powders. Take one
powder three times daily, Que hour
after nursing.
Ii urine be high or slightly COL
ored, take one powder and BALI
three times daily, one boar after
nursing. A larger dose, compare
lively, is required for children.
