Goals TO FRANCE.-Mr. Gould, U. s. consul at
Marseilles France, in his dispatch to the Depart
mont OF State, dated october "a, 1879, reports
the attempts to introduce anthracite coal into
France from the United States have not been
successful. First, American coal cannot be sold
in France, after paying duties OF $l.O4 ton so
cheaply as English and French coal. American
vessels require ballast to the United States and
not FROM so coal cannot be brought to France
as ballast, as some supposed. Second. The pre-
JUDGES OF the people OF Europe are all in favor
OF bituminous coal-their dwellings and shops
are all adapted to its use.

Serious Danger

in a region of country where fever and ague Is
prevalent, since the germs of malarial disease
are inhaled from the air and are swallowed
from the water of such region Medicinal
safeguard is absolutely necessary to nullify
this danger. As a means of fortifying and ac-
cllmating the system as to be able to resist
the malarial poison, Hostetter's Stomach Bit.
tiers IS incomparably the best and the most
popular. Irregularities of the stomach, liver
and bowels encourage malaria; but these are
speedily rectifled by the Bitters. The func-
tions of digestion and secretion are assisted by
its use, and a vigorous as well as a regular con-
dition of the system promoted by it. Consti-
tuition and hysique are thus defended against
the 1nroads of malaria by this matchless pre-.
ventive, which is also a certain and thorough
remedy in the worst cases of Intermittent and
remittent fevers.

The Disappearance OF Governing Families i'm
the South.
TNaw York Times

The Disappearance of Governing Families in
the South.
New York Times.l
Jefferson was particularly anxious to guard
this country against governing families"
and were he to return to his own Virginia
ought to be highly gratified to-day for he
would scarcely find q governing family in
the entire South. A few weeks ago his own
dilapidated Monticello passed once more
into the hands of strangers, and Tuesday
night saw the last of Roanoke, the beloved
home of John Randolph. who always affixed
'of Roanoke" to his signature. The house
was an immense wooden structure, and here
he resided in patriarchal style, surrounded
by great number of slaves, to whom be
showed himself an extremely kind master.
The following letter, written in July, 1892
suggests, however, that there were draw
backs 70 the place ss a residence: cal
though am but 100 miles from Richmond,
it is an affair of 10 days and a wagon of five
or six horses to get anything thence, and it
(Richmond) is such poor place, ITS sole
necessaries OF life. The new States
are far better supplied with means of trans
portation, railroads and postofices than the
old Southern States of Virginia, the Caro-
linas and Georgia" In a few years there
will probably not be half dozen old time
mansions in the South left in the families of
the original owners. Even IN Maryland
there are scarcely more than two of note
Hampton, Mr.. Ridgley's, and Dougnoregan
Manor .rre the home aSa Of Fl, Carroll 50oI
too, would probably have been already
dismantled or decayed but for the
fact OF one of the heirs marrying a North
ern lady of fortune. When Mr.. Carroll
signed himself of Carrollton, to distinguish
himself from others of his name, he had no
house of that title, but an estate. His home
was always at Doughoregan Manor, which
probably derived its name from an ancient
property of the family in Ireland.
