 It will thus be seen that there is clear difference in theory between the marks on the plate and on the china. The later are impressed by the manufacturer, at his own choice and for his own benefit. The former are compulsory, undertaken by monopolist company, who are paid for the services which the public are forced to accept at their hands The distinction suggests not merely important privileges, but grave duties. We have seen within the last few years the taste for Queen Anne furniture and for antiquities of all kinds spread into the region of plate and siIverware Forthwith the curiosity shops seem to have been largely stocked with the rarest and most desirous spieces of old silver The connoisseur, naturally at once wary and confiding, has found security in the hall mark. That guaranteed the genu- ineness of what had become suspiciously plentiful And so with simple trust he large ly bought and was largely swindled- In some cases the marks were forged, in others genu- inc marks were inserted into modern plate Imposture proceeded on so extensive a scale that the Goldsmiths' Company have at last awakened to the importance of the subject, and are resolved to put down the i'm posture It is well to get this assurance even now But it comes rather late. In their own interest, in the interest of the pubic, and as slight duty arising from a substantial privilege, the Goldsmiths' Company should long ago have shown this activity.

A Happy Combination.

There are no external remedies of any era. form or combination that have won warmer encomiums from public, press and medical profession than Dr. Grosvenor's Bellanodyne Porous Plasters. The chemical unison of the Belladonna, greatly esteemed for it's anodyne properties, and the Capsiein, famed for it's speedy counter irritant effects, imparts to the Bellanodyne Plaster degree of efficacy and strength attained in no other medicinal arti- ele of it's class. Physicians are well aware of this and advise it's use in cases of local pain and inflammation. The best results follow it's use

FITz JOHN PORTER's CASE,
Special To The 81. Louis republican

Special 10 the ST. Louis Republican.
Washington. Feb. 1.-THE Fitz John
Porter case took new turn in the Senate to-
day. Mr.. Randolph presented nm amend
ment in the nature of a substitute, as follows;
Strike out all after the enacting clause and
insert; That the President is hereby author
lied to nominate and by and with the advice
OF the Senate to appoint Fitz John Porter IL
colonel of infantry in the army of
the United States, his commission
to bear date Jannary, 1868, with
pay and emoluments Of that rank from that
date until he shall be retired accordingto law
or as hereinafter provided for.
Section .. That at any time after the
granting Of such commission ii shall be law
tul for the President to place said Porter on
the retired list of the army OH pay Of retired
colonel of infantry
The new bill was drawn for double pur-
pose: First, it does away with all the consti-
tutional questions presented in the original
bill ms to the light Of Congress to set aside
the finding of court-martial; second, it is
expected the new bill will deprive the Re-
pub leans of the opportunity to create sec
tional debate by reviving war issues
over the person of General Porter. The
substitute offered to-day gives the Repubi-
can frsudent President the power to nomi-
nate Porter, and he can only be confirmed
with the consent of the Democratic Senate.
The form in which Mr.. Randolph has drawn
his substitute is the common one for the
Reinstatement of officers in the army or
navy. There are scores OF precedent3 for
offering the bill, and the Democrats believe
that in its present shape it will be impossible
for the Republicans to successfully inaugur-
ate political discussion on the subject.
