CHANGE IN THE PAY OFFICE.

1t will take Maj. Candce q week or two te
close up his business as paymaster of this
district and Turn over the office to his sue
cessor, Maj. Sharpe. .Muj. Candee end his
clerk, Lew Candee, Will then proceed tc
Washington, where they are to be pcrman'
emily stationed. The retiring paymastel
has been twelve years on frontier duty
seven Of which have been spent in this dis
tritt. with headquarters ct Sioux City and
Yankt m. During that time be has visited
all the milit.ry posts between Yankton and
Standing Rock (nmittilg the latter during
tie pas: twO years. six times each year, In
ali sorts OF weather, and has never failed to
make q payment whvn due. This is u re
markable record of service when it is con-
sidered tina, his route has been all that time
through an uninhabi'ed wilderness and
over a region swept by dangerous winter
storms and subject to the delays Of summer
floods. Iudcmitable will is the attribute
which has conquered and made lossible
this record OF seven years Of successful
frontier work. Maj. Candce and his broth
er are certainly entitled to the change which
gives to them a position Of ease. They
have fairly earned it.

A REMARKABLE RESULT.

1t makes no difference how many
Physicians, or how much medicine, yon
have tried, it is now an established fact
that German Syrup is the only remedy
which has given complete satisfaction
in severe cases of Lung Diseases. 1t is
true there are vet thousands of persons
who are predisposed to Throat and Lung
Affections, Consumption, Hemorrhages
Asthma, Severe Colds settled on the
Breast, Pneumonia, Whooping Cough,
&C., who have no personal knowledge of
Boschee's German Syrup. To such we
would say that $4,000 dozen were. sold
last year without one complaint. Con-
sumptives try just n bottle. Regular
size rs cents. Sold by all Druggists in
America.
Sold by Mills s. Purdy

A MANIFEST

A MANIFEST
1t is manifestly absurd to claim for a mere
stimulant, tonic and Alternative properties. Yet
this is what is daily done by the vendors of cheap
local bitters, colored to make them look attrac-
tive. and agreeably favored, but the alcoholic
basis of which Is Of the vilest and most hurtful
description. The transcendent success Of Hos
letters Stomach Bitters, the leading Alternative
tonic Of the United States, has induced many Of
these c%ompounders of drains in disguise, to at
tempt the counterfeiting Of this standard medi-
cine, but their efforts have never proved success
full on a large scale, and they have themselves in
many instances VIGOROUSLY "come to grief
through the instrumentality of the law.
The genuine Bittels have, indeed, Il spirituou.
basis, but they are emphatically a medicine
since their botanic ingredients are signally cnl'
cacious in overcoming and preventing chills ant
fever, dyspepsia, liver complaint, constipation
and many other disorders.

FOREIGN TRADE.

Everything points to the absolute neces-
sity of cultivating the foreign market by
every c in our power. We lave lost
our footing upon the seas, and have to pay
toll to other nations on everything that we
send abroad. That is of itself n great OBJ
,tacle to our getting into markets now con-
rolled by England. We cannot expect that
treat Britain is to furnish ships to carry
American goods direct to other nations.
She will rather a our goods TO England.
where they will be repacked and sent abroad
again in the same vessels, after paying u
handsome percentage to the English mer-
chant for the handling. We must nave our
own steamship lines to the countries for
whose trade we propose to compete with
other nations, and we must send more goods
lbroad.
The very fact that we are buying United
States bonds at the rate of n million n q
half a day shows that there is money that
is seeking investment. 1t will not go into
manufacturing for we can now make twice
what we can sell at q profit with the limited
market that we command. 1t will not 20
into farming, for we are supplying the world
with food at such prices that the profit has
been very much reduced. The only remedy
lies in our inaaig customers who are now
served by other people, and keeping them
by the superiority Of our products and the
low prices that we can make through ad-
vnnces in our machinery Phil. NORTH

As q great writer has truly said, the
writings by which one can live are not the
writings which themselves live" To infuse
into a book deep thought that will strain
The attention of the reader; to defend un
popular opinions or open new veins of
thought to condense into a small space
the reflections and researches of q lifetime
to grapple with subjects that involve sub
tile distinctions or close and complicated
reasoning is a course plainly contrary to
the p~ecuniary interest of an author.
A skilful writer. who looks only to the
market, will speedily perceive that the
taste of the great majority of readers is an
uncultivated one, and that if he desires to
be popular he must labor deliberately to
crafty it. If his talent take the form of
books, he will expand his thoughts into
many brilliant, gaudy, and superficial vol
umes, rapidly written and easily read and,
remembering that most men read only for
amusement, he will avoid any subject that
can fatigue attention or shock prejudices,
and especially every form of profound, min
ute, and laborious investigation. There
are demagogues in literature as well as in
politics. There is a degradation of style
springing from a thirst of popularity which
is at least as bad as the pedantry of schol-
ans and n desire to conform to middle
class prejudice may produce quite as real a
s~ervility Us the patronage of missionaries
or of courts. -. Very few of those men
whose genius has irradiated nations, and
whose writings have become the eternal
heritage of mankind, obtained for their
works the income of a successful village
doctor or provincial attorney. -Lecky, The
Later History Of England.

A cLosELY-GUARDED WEIGHT.

The conscience-keeper of the nations
financial faith is deposited at the mint,
Broad Street, Philadelphia, in the form of
a troy pound weight, which is kept under
duplicate locks and seals. There is a curl
Gus history connected with this weight.
By it is determined the standard to which
the accuracy of the gold and silver coins of
the United States must attain. The COM
mission appointed by the President to test
the coins and make the annual assay use
this weight, and on these occasions it is
taken from its carefully guarded ~seclusion,
and it shows the accuracy or inaccuracy of
the productions of the various mints in
this country. This little cylinder is copied
from q troy pound weight preserved in the
Tower of London, and on this latter the
coinage of Great Britain rests for reliabil
ity. This exact witness of financial integ-
rity is carefully preserved and guarded
from tampering hands. At the conclusion
of the Assay Commissions labors the
weight is intrusted to the care of q Judge
of the United States District Court, the
collector of the port and the director of the
mint, locked up, and solemnly sealed for
another year, only to appear twelve months
after and show which mint has been dere,
