suite of rooms in the Palmer house which con-
stitute offices not excelled in elegance of fur

credit, and all who are not prejudiced or aotu-
Ated by envy or Jealousy will accord him praise
for what he has accomplished against the OPP

This much Is due him, and it gives me pleasure
to make the mention in the GLOBE.
An to his discovery, it is not 80 recent with
him as many suppose; he made it about twelve
years ago, but did not think it worth what it
has proven to be until he had effected some re-
markable cures of the worst GASES of dipsoma-
MIA or drunkenness, when he awoke and found
himself famous, and is entitled to rank among
the benefactors of his race. He has treated
more than forty-three hundred cases. and in no
principle upon which cinchona cures, it il
proper to state for general information, is that
it is cumulative, by which il meant that tho
first dose makes the nerve centres. upon which
it acts, more sensitive to Il succeeding dose;
therefore it acts as its own antidote This ac-
ton of cinchona is the reverse Of that of alco-
hol the basis of all spirituous liquors, which is
non-cumulative, and requires more frequent
and larger doses to crafty the demand and sat
isfy the craving of the nerve centers, which
become exhausted by such excuses and the ner
vOus system Frustrated and impaired. Alcohol
requires increased doses, cinchona the reverse;
hence the former weakens, Injuries and eventu-
ally destroys, while cinohona, on the other
hand, Strengthens, invigorates and eventually
cures. This is but common sense philosophy.
He has made arrangements to get all the bark
he uses direct from the district Loxain, Peru,
where this bark only grows, at an altitude Of
$4,000 feet above sea level Many of the lead

He is shipping it to all parts of the world, and

Millions Of Gold Returning to the United
States from Europe.
New York Special to Cincinnati Commercial.
There has been an unprecedently heavy i'm
-portation of gold from Europe this week. The
money market was comparatively easy with
five and six per cent. as the ruling rates for
call loans, and exceptional transactions at
seven and four per cent.-the latter rate pre-
vailing at the close.
In connection with the bank statement the
movements of the treasury and assay Office
this week were very important. From Sep
TENDER to September - the amount Of gold
from Europe aggregated SO, 500, 900, of which
S6,600,OOO were deposited in the assay Office.
The balance was in double eagles and went
into the treasury.
During the same time the assay Office issued
checks to the extent of 1855, 00O To-day the
assay office also paid out some large amounts.
The treasury received during the week 49,
O00, O0O legal tenders on account of per cent.
bonds, which reduces the remaining collateral
for these bonds to $5,000,0O0.
The currency balance of the treasury last Sat-
urday was 1924 ,0O0, 900, while to-day it was down
to $l9, 100000, owing to the payment Of assay
Office checks for gold and also for the direct
deposits of American gold coin received from
Europe.
From the figures it will be seen that the
banks received large amounts Of money from
the treasury on account of the gold arriving
from Europe, but at the same time they paid
considerable into the treasury for the per
cent. bonds, and sent large amounts of cur
rency to the interior.
= If it had not been for these arrivals of gold
from Europe, there would have been great
disturbance in the money market. The influx
of gold from Europe, as indicated, has as
sumed enormous proportions, the amounts re-
ceived by the various steamers during the past
week aggregating nearly SO, 100000, while to-
day comes the dispatch from London for this

there. Coming to Saltwater Friday, from
which place he intended to start for his home in

both there expressedly for the same purpose.

did. Unknown to Valiquette they passed the
junction, and after walking a mile or two
further, proposed camping out for

proposition. He awoke about 2 o'clock in the

SENATOR PENDLETON,S SPEECH

The speech of Hon. George H. Pendleton
at Edenton on Saturday, which We publish
in full to-day, deserves place in the annals
of the political literature of the day. II is,
without question, the ablest exposition of
national issues that has been made during
the present campaign. 1t is not only clear
statement of the issues before the country,
but o convincing argument in favor of the
position on those issues assumed by the
Democratic party. On the question of the
use of troops at the polls he shows that
for any purpose it is dangerous, and that their
presence is of itself menace to the freedom
of the ballot. 1t is the duty of the people
to resist the first appearance of danger to
their liberties.
On the question of finance Senator PEN
dleton represents the sentiments of the
great majority of the people of the country.
He pictures the depression in all branches
of trade that have SO long existed in the
country, and charges it all to the ruinous
financial policy of the Democratic party. He
calls renewed attention to the favoritism
displayed by the secretary of the treasury
towards few pet bankers, and how he has
left several million of dollars on deposit in
some of these institutions for months at
time, and how by that means tho country
has been robbed of much that was its due
in the matter of interest.
Turning to the question of State rights,
Senator Pendleton vindioates the position
of the Democratic party most eloquently.
He demonstrates conclusively that there has
never been, and is not
now, any affinity between that
doctrine and secession or notification. These
heresies are not the outgrowth of the theory
of State rights as held by the Democratic
party, but perversion of the fundamental
law of the union of States. The Democratic
party is in no way responsible for, nor is it
in sympathy with, these errors of political
science.
On the question of the reconciliation of
silver Mr.. Pendleton is very emphatic. He
shows that silver is necessary part of the
currency of all nations, and that unless it is
accorded an equal standing with its more
precious companion, a constant disturbance
of the finances is inevitable. The countries
of Europe that have followed the pernicious
example set by the Republicans of this
country have already seen their error. In
England and Germany the state of trade has
never been in such depressed condition as
since silver was demonetized. They are
now seeking to retrace their steps.
The great injury that has been done by
tho national banks is most fully demon
strated. The arguments and figures given
are simply unanswerable, and it is proved
that the only safety for the country is to re-
quire all money used as currency to be is
sued by the government directly.
The speech as whole is mastery one,
and will bear careful perusal by every per-
son in the least interested in the science of
government.

to the ticket conditional upon the Pillsburv
