lnlS now umVcrsnl beverage was frst in
troduccd into England in the reign of James
l., but it did not come into general use until
late period. In 1860, by an act of Charles
H., tax of fourpence was imposed on
every gallon of coffee sold, and every vcndcr
Of the article was obliged to take ont a
license. In 1876 all the coffcc-hollscs in
London were closed by proclamation, as be-
ing the resort Of evil minded persons and
scditionaries; yet, rs had been the case one
hundfcd years earlier at Constantinoplc,
the people were soon after left to drink
coffee when and where they pleased. Up
to this period, and for some time after, all
the coffee consumed in Europe was brought
from Arabia. The trade was very profitable
to the Arabs, who prohibited the cxporta-
ton Of plants from Yemen under severe
penalties; and it is said that they destroyed
the terminating principle of tho berries, 50
as to prevent foreigners raising crop from
seed. But about 1880, Witsen, burge-
master of Amsterdam, persuaded the COVER
nor of Java to procure some coffee berries
from Arabia Felix. These were sown at
Batavia, and in 1900 one Of the plants thus
raised was sent to Holland where it was
planted in the botanic garden at Lcydcn. II
flourished, bore fruit, and from the rlpcned
seed other plants were propagatcd, from
which the Dutchcolo ny Of fSurinam was sup
piled. In 1714 q young tree was sent from
Amsterdam rs present to Louis XIV, and
preserved in the Jardin dcs Plantcs at Paris;
and this tree, it is said furnished plants for
the Frcnchscolonios in South America and
the West Indies. II seems somewhat singu-
lar that tropical countries, the natural abode
Of the coffee tree, should have been indcbt-
cd to Europe for 1t. Yet so 1t was, and from
this small beginning has grown up nm i'm
mensc commerce.

WRENcHED AND RACKED by the pangs Of
rheumatism the joints eventually become
grievously distorted, and sometimes assume
an almost grotesque deformity To pre-
vent such results by simple and agreeable
means is certainly the part Of wisdom. A
tendency to rheumatic ailments may be
successfully combatted with Hostetters
Stomach Bitters, the medicine with pres
tige Of a long and successful career of I'm
bounded popularity, and of emphatic pro-
fessional endorsement 1t removes from
the blood those inhammatory impurities
which pathologists assign as the cause Of
rheumatism, and not only purifes the life
current, but enriches it, promoting vigor by
terhlzing its source. Digestion, the action
Of the bowels and the secretion of the bile,
are aided by it, and it impels the kidneys
and bladder to a regular and active per-
Torrance of their functions. 1t is besides
a thoroughly reliable remedy for and means
of preventing, periodic fevers.
! A WELL known merchant of San Fran
cisco started out the other morning for the
purpose of attending the wicked and sacrile-
gious passion Play" In vain his good
wife endeavored to dissuade him from his
purpose and solemnly warned him that if
he persisted the judgment of heaven would
certainly ovcrtakc him. With rude reply
the scoffer FASTENED away and soon was
numbered among the giddy, needless
throng at the playhouse. When the irrev-
erent scene was at an end he joined some
equally hardened friends and went to one OF
those gilded palaces of sin called billiard
hall, Thus it is that one false step leads to
another. The next morning the merchant
was found in -paralyzed condition upon
his front steps, his hat crushed, his clothes
muddied and murmuring half Ineligible
words, q condition from which he recovered
only after hours of narrowing anxiety had
been passed by his agonized family. The
merchant himself could not account for hr
condition, and agreed with the rest it mus
a have been the result of some terrible vista
, ton OF an outraged Providence. This is

HELMBol.D's MEDICINAL. PRgpAR ArleNs,

HELMBol.D's MEDICINAL PREPARATIONS.
Helmbold's various medical preparations
have for the last twenty or more years oc
cupled prominent place on the shelves Of
every respectable druggist and physician in
the land. The skill displayed in their pre-
paration, the invariable promptness and
efficiency of their action, the absence Of
nauscous and disgusting taste or odor, and
the attractive manner in which they are
put up, have made them universal favoritcs.
Especially is this the case with Helmbelds
famous Buchu, a medicine which has be
come indispensable to the treatment Of q
large and troublesome class of diseases,
particularly those which effect the diges-
tive and urinary organs. Asa diuretic, it
Is invaluable, and the great advantage it
possesses over otherpreparations is the ALSO
lutte purity Of the ingredients, and the uni
formity Of strength. Parties purchasing
should be careful to see that Helmbold's
proprietary stamp IL affixed 70 each
bottle.

WASHINGTON, April 14.-After the pass
age of the Gamgee refrigerating ship bill, to
freeze out yellow fever, by the house to-day
Mr.. Chalmer, of Mississippi, rose to a per-
sonal explanation, and asked that acommit-
tee be appointed to investigate his connec-
ton with the Fort Pillow massacre. As this
request grew out of speech made by Rep
resentatiyc Butterworth, at Music Hall.
Cincinnati on the 9th inst, it brought Butter
worth to his feet, and he explained that he
alluded to General Chalmer IN that connec
ton because he (Chalmer) was best known
for his participation in that affair. The res
olution was allowed to go over for the pres

DRAGG's BLAST.
Mr., Bragg, of Wisconsin, stirred up a

point Of fact there were no loyal men in
the South during the rebellion, and those
who sought to recover from the government
on that ground were dishonest.
Mr.. Garfield, replied and showed that
Tennessee and Kentucky furnished plenty
of good fighting material for the Union

Teaching, sowing and keeping house

records seventy-one occupations that
are open to women. No woman was a

Now they have a successful practice IN
every large city and many Of the

Now there are not only distinctiyely
colleges for women, but a large number
that welcome women to all their ad-
vantages. 1t is not many years since a
married woman could own nothing she
earned could not make a will of any
thing she possessed could not sue or
be sued could not carry on business,
had no lawful right to her children,
and could not even be their guardian
nor had she the right to her own per-
son. Now in most Of the States, all
this is changed or very much modi-
