The pupular impression, strengthened BY
some scientific opinions, That consumption
cannot be cured, has no doubt FASTENED the
death of many invalids, by depriving them oil
the consolation of hope. Persons afflicted
with pectoral disease should be supported by
every assurance OF cure, not alarmed by
the gloomy, forebodiug countenances of those
around. For our part, we do not believe
that consumption is incurable, and let physi,
clans theorize as they will, we have mass
OF evidence to prove that persons having all
the symptoms of consumption, cough, deep,
bloody expectora'ion, pain and oppression,
sore throat, diarrhea, night sweats, burning
ing fever, &c, have been permanently cured
by "Dr. Swayne's Compound Syrup of Wild

INTER-0ORANIO CANAL.
The Presidenps Views Communicated To
Congress.

WASHINGTON. March 8.-The
President to day sent message to
the Senate in answer to the resolu-
ton asking for information about
the inter-oceanie canal. He endor.
ses the correspondence on the SUBJ
ject, and says: 81 deem it proper to
state briefly my opinion as to the
policy of the United States with
respect to the contraction of an in
ter-oosanic canal by any route across
the American Isthmus. The policy
of this country is canal under
American control. The United
States cannot consent to the surren-
der of this control to any c,mbina-
ton OF European powers. If the
existing treaties between the Uni
ted States and other nations or if
the rights of sovereign y or proper
ty OF other nations stand in the way
of this policy-a contingency which
is not apprehended- suitable steps
should be taken by just and liberal
negotiations to promote and estab.
lish an American policy on this sub.
ject consistently with the rights of
the nations 10 be affected by it.
The capital invested by corporations
or citizens of other countries in such
an enterprise must in great degree
look tor perfection to one or more
of the great powers of the world.
No European power can intervene
for such protection without adopt
ing measures on this continent
which the United States would deem
wholly insdmissable. If the pro
lection of the United States is relied
upon, the United States must exer.
else such control as will enable this
country to protect its national in ter.
ests and maintain the rights of those
whose private capital is embarked in
the work or the inter-oceapic canal
across the American Isthmus will
essentially change the geographical
relations between the Atlantic and
Pacific coasts of the United States.
and the rest of the world. 1t will
be the great ocean throughfare be.
tween our Atlantic and Pacific
shores, and virtually a part OF the
coast line of the United States. Our
merely commercial interest in it is
greater than that of all other coun.
tries, while its relation to cur power
and prosperity as a nation; to our
means of defence our unity, our
peace and safety, are matters of
paramount consideration to the
people Of the United States. No
other great power would under
similar circumstances fail to assert
its rightful control over work so
closely and vitality affecting its
interest and welfare. Without urg.
ing further grounds of my opinion,
l repeat, in conclusion, that it is the
right and duty of the United States
to assert and maintain such super.
vision and authority over any inter
oceanic canal across the isthmus
hat connects North and South
America as will protect our national
interests. This, l am quite sure,
will be found not only compatible
with, but promotive Ct evident and

Warden Smith says further "We

WHEN silver began to circulate
there were no silver dollars out but
trade dollars. Of these there were
some millions abroad and their value
wss ten per cent. below our green.
backs. AT this value they were
bought up by brokers, brought into
the towns all over the country and
given out among the farmers and
other workingmen at par. Thus the
brokers made ten per cent. out of
their introduction. Then the new
dollar was made legal tender aud as
soon as they made their appearance
the trade dollar became current only
at 50 to 90 cents-all the farmers
and brokers could get for j, when
they wished to dispose of it. After
while, at these rates they were all
gathered back into the vaults of the
bankers and brokers. Now Congress
passes q law that the trade dollar
shall be interchangeable with the
new dollars. Thus the brokers
pocket their second ten per cent
ten per cent. for getting them into
the country and ten per cent. for
getting them cut-snd industry foots
the bill. HERALD readers were re.
minded of this until they were tired
of il. Perhaps, also, we shall tire
them of reminding them that they
will have a similar bill to pay to get
rid of the millions and millions of
sick dollars that unwise legislation is
foisting upon the people IN the re-
roonetization act
