THE UNITED STATES AND cum.

THE UNITED A AND TUBA.
The memorandum presented by Senior
Elduayen, minister OF foreign Affairs, to
the American government, examines
the state Of the commercial relation bet
ween Cuba and the United States, with
a view OF showing what concession
spain requires from the American traffic
legislation for Cuban and Porte Rico
sugar and molasses. Senior Elduayen.
like his predecessors, desires to prepare
the way for n general treaty of CON-
merce and navigation between the
United States and Spain and the
colonies, on the basis Of reciprocity and
the most favored OF nation treatment.
But the Spanish government, knowing
the difficulties presented by such n policy
In the present state Of opinion in
congress and in American commercial
circles, would readily accept a conven-
ton liking certain privileges for Cuban
sugar and molasses In the American
market, II the Washington government
were prepared to accept and defend
this policy before congress as an equiva.

statesmen are ready to make, in Caban

further now that the close OF the Cuban
insurrection has diminished the burdens

out that Spain in being disposed to take
on most OF her export duties IN raw
produce OF sugars in the West Indies, is
virtually favoring the development Of
trade with the United States which are
the largest customers OF the Cuban ex.
port and import trade. Great cordiality
and a wish TO ~conciliate are evident in
Senior E~lduayen's dispatch, whic,
presses the American government to
examine this important question.

The last number Of the AaiGoIl Re-
o0Td contains = notice u q new and
curious msthOd Of dsAdening pain,
which is Of striking simplicity. 1t MAS
discovered b. DIR. Bonwill, . dentist Of
Philadelphia, In 1875. In 1876 Dr. A
HexsOn made q favorable report Of his
experience with il TO the international
medical congress, and at q recent meet
ing Of the Philadelphia County Medical
society several papers were read ON the
subject, and much discussion followed.
In using the method, the operator
simply requests the patient To breathe
rapidly, making about 100 respirations
per minute. ending In rapid putting eI-
pirations. At the end Of from two to
Eve minutes an entire or partial absence
Of pain results for half a minute or
more, and during that time teeth may
be drawn or ineisions made. The
patient may be In any position, but that
recommended Is lying on the side, and
il Is generally best 10 throw a handker-
chief oyer the face TO prevent distrac-
ton OF the patients attention. When
the rapid breathing Is first begun the
patient may feel some exhilarAtion; fol-
lowing this comes a sensation Of full
ness In the head or dizziness. The
face is at first flush aud afterwards pale
or even blush, the heart beats rather
feebly aud fast, but the Of touch
Is not effected nor is consciousness lost.
The affect Is produced in females more
readily than In males, and in the mid
dle-aged more easily than in the old;
children can hardly be made to breathe
properly. II Is denied that there is any
possible danger. Several minor opera
tions. other than frequent dental ones,
have been successfully made by this
method, and IL Is claimed hat In dem
tistry, minor surgery, AMI obstetrics 1t
may supplant the common anesthetics.
DIR. Hewson's explanation Is that rapid
breathing diminishes the oxygenation
Of the blood, and that the resultant ex-
cess OF carbonic acid temporarily poi
sons the nerve centers. DIR. Bonwill
gives several explanations. one being
the specific effect Of carbonic acid, an
other the diversion of will force pro-
duced by rapid voluntary muscular nc
ton; and the third, the damming up Of
the blood In the brain, due to the ex-
cessive amour, OF air passing into the
lungs. The Record Is not satisfied with
the theories, but considers It well
proved that pain may be deadened by
the method, which 1t commends to the
profession for the exact experimental
determination Of its precise value.

The American abroad Is the object Of
considerable attention Just now In the
English newspapers. Not long ago he
was analysed by the Pail Mall Gdsetfe,
and now we find him dissected by n
writer In the Illustrated London kers.
The writer, who has evidently neve
been In America, says that he has new
er met u stupid American, nor one who
appeared remarkably clever. "Noneo of
them appear to be- Thread. most Of them
have a very good acquaintance with
modern English literature and history,
though they are not good ~linguists, and
seem to judge things literary by a low
standard. So In art; so, very notably,
In music; ~ and, most OF all, their
and rules OF etiquette bear this
out they are good Of their sort, but
the sort Is a little odd TO US. There is
no doubt that the average well-bred
American tries much harder TO be civil
than the average well bred Englishman,
who too often directs his efforts In the
opposite way, with painful success. And
closely connected with this Is the fact
that young England Is infinitely more
affected than New England; u forced
and 'throaty' voice-terribly common
among university men and their init
ators-has no counterpart among the
nasal but unaffected speakers of the
states. One might almost sun up the
matter DO saying that, despite their
worship Of the almighty dollar, Ameri-
cans are not nearly so much afflicted
with the terrible disease of snobbish-
ness rs our unhappy selves. l do not
think that the English who have actu-
ally been 10 America can be accused OF
any desire to do 1t in justice. The i'm
mense energy and activity OF its people,
the wonderful desire for and pursuit Of
knowledge, the inventiveness and in
dependence ON every side, the big
things attempted and done both by ma
ture and man, never fail to make their
impression. The gayety and hospital
ity of New York; the culture and the
poetry OF Boston; the houses Of Chicago
moved on rollers through the streets,
with, Enthusiastically, a piano play
ing inside the aea-like rivers, clear to the
bottom; the tremendous thunderstorms;
in every way the Briton is impressed
with n ~'bigness' and an activity quite
new TO him. Even the dullest and the
most bigoted Of us-nay, those perhaps
the most-come back entirely cured Of
any contempt fer the Yankee with
which we may have started. There
may be many things we may not like;
we may prefer our homes, our newspa-
pers. or NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. but we can
never again hope to laugh y reform or

Mr.. Harry Price who has now aohiev-
cd great celebrity as an artist in Phil
adelphia intends curing the Spring to

tie ground, about ten miles from this
city. When Mr.. Prics will have fa-
ished this drawing he will sketch a
number Of life like picture Of scenes
upon the banks Of this creek from its
mouth to Chadd's Ford. Hs is just
completing sketch of crossing the
creek at the foot Of the Wilmington and
Brandywine cemetery. In his picture
Of the old barley mill the trees which
he drew were as they appeared three
years ago, but they now do not remain.
A local poet-in-describing this creek
once had the following couplet at the
end of poem: "0h! Brandyw:ne how
changed art thou by arts proud triumph
and the plow." These charges are con-
stantly taking place. Old buildings,
old trees and old rocks and strawberries
are disappearing. AZ the scenery now

Bruce ON Burns.

There is certainly rich treat in store
for those who may be fortunate enough
to hear Bruce on Burns, in the Opera
House, on the 11th instant. A gentle
man we'll qualified to judge correctly,
and who has heard lectures on Burns
by persons of high literary repute,
heard Bruce lecture at the Academy of
Music, Philadelphia, and pronounced it
the best decidedly he had ever heard.
The admirers of Burns in Philadelphia
were so delighted with Mr.. Bruce's
splendid effort on that occasion, that
they have engaged him to repeat it. All
of our citizens claiming Scottish an
cestfy, who can, will certainly avail
themselves Of this opportunity to hear
the character and genius of BurLs H.
lustrated by first class orator. In
this, as in all other intelligent commu-
mites, the lovers Of Burns are numer-
GUS, and are not limited to any nation
alty, and for all such eur school
teachers have provided All intellectual

Pigeon Shooting,

|, A pigeon shooting contest took place
at Hare's Corner yesterday. A double
barrel shot gun was the prize offered in
the first contest while twenty-five dol
lars was the prize for the second con-
test. The shots were fired at a rise Of
twenty-one yards and within a boun-
Diary of 80 yards. The prize was won
for Benjamin c. Pearce by Richard
Wood Of Pennsylvania who shot nine of
the ten pigeons. In the second match
number of ties were made by Messrs.
Legg, Davis and Wood, but the prize
was afterwards decided to be won by
Messrs. Wood and Davis, who each
killed five pigeons apiece. Some dis
satisfaction wa, expressed in reference
to Mr.. Davis obtaining q portion of the
second prize as our informant states
that one of the pigeons which was tax
en- from the roof OF house was not shot
by him.

The humming Of birds, budding Of
trees and an early start on the part Of
the farmers bring to our mind remem.
brances Of what We, have heretofore
witnessed In Spring.
The mechanics Of our town seem
overjoyed by the rush of business
which now occupies their attention.
The blacksmiths and wheelwrights
have an abundance Of work. The Tin
smiths and harness makers say that
they cannot complain while the cob
blers do not care whether school keeps
or not.
The moving changes this spring will
be quite numerous. Mr.. Boulden will
remove to Frederick while his place OF
business will be occupied by Mr.. Will
let, Of Chesapeake; the hotel which is
occupied at Chesapeake by Mr.. Willet,
will IN the future be conducted by
Robert Hayes; the Union house which
will be vacated by Mr.. Hayes will be
occupied by Messss. Vandegrift and
McVey, who have leased it for one
year. George W. Townsend already
has moved to his farm which is situa-
ted about one mile and half to the
south of the village.
The organ on Back street will be
removed to Fourteenth and Main streets,
where, undoubtedly, theneighbors will
appreciate the mslodious strains which
are produced by the dainty fingers Of
the organist. No insult was intended
when l previously referred to 1t, on the
contrary | merely spoke Of the rude boys
who gathered around the house and
thus blockaed the passage, on the way
to church.
Afhalf-past seven o'clock on Friday
evening an alarm of fire was sounded,
and upon proceeding to the place
where the fire was it was, ascertained
that warehouse at Kirkwood, owned
by the P. W. & B. R. R. Co., was com.
pletely ruined. The building con
tanned ,0C0 bushels of corn and 100
bushels of wheat in addition to other
valuable articles. The loss Ia estima-

The new parsonage is rapidly being

Aow old was sIrs. Nc Sorley.

A facetious correspondent writes us
as follows:
Inotics through your valuable col
umns a notice of Mrs. Maria McSorl sy
celebrating her S4th birth day on the
29th of February. Now if this be SO
she must be 339 years of age. Please
explain through your paper whether
that 10 a fact. Yours "M."
We presume a correspondent who
gives such evidence of depth of thought
will have no difficulty in solving the
problem though the true inwardness Of
lady's age is one Of the most difficult
things in the world to understand.
Upon a strict construction there are two
horns to the dilemma and according
to that of our correspondent Mrs. Nc
Sorley must either be 1886 or q years of
age. We struck medium and called
it 81 and we have no doubt whatever
that Mrs. McSorley herself will agree
that we are not far from right. How
ever we would be glad to hear any
other solution of the question.
