The Coming Regatta.

The prevailing hot weather has had n
very bad effect upon the visiting oarsmen
from the Northern and Western cities. They
have never been used to rowing in
such hot climate, and n considerable
number Of them were reported
us being in bad form to-day at 2 o'clock
when the thermometer indicated 1919 in the
shade at various points. This is favorable
for the Southern manipulators of the oars,
however, and they are quietly jubilating
over their advantage in this re-
spect, believing that they will stand
q better chance for taking prizes. The crew
from Hillsdalc, Mich, however, say that
they are glad that it is so warm, as they
are DESTROYS Of testing their ability in
such a climate. A party of oarsmen
entered drug store ON Fifteenth
street this afternoon and publicly an
nOunced that the weather had used them
up and that they had been suffering from
their bowels ever since their ar
rival. One strapping big fellow asked
for medicine of some kind to build
him up again. The clerk suggested quinine.
How much is a dose?' asked the sick
rowist. Twenty grains,' said the clerk.
" Good God, do you want to. kill me-" cx-
claimed the oarsman aghast. "No, it will
do you good, the clerk answered. and the
sick man took the dose. Perhaps his head
won't sing u cotton-gin tune when he goes
out to row tomorrow. gT- r-,.-r r- -9
All the crews and individual oarsmaa are
in this city now except the Institute six Of
Newark, n. j., and they are expected this
afternoon. A meeting Of the regatta com
mittee will be held this afternoon at the
Arlington, and positions drawn for by the
participants in the races. The
referee and judges Z will also
be selected by this committee. The time
for starting has not yet been decided on, but
1t is thought 1880 or 2 o'clock will be the
time. That, however, will also be fixed at
the meeting.

WHAT WILL BE DONE WITH THE SUR
PLUS REvENUE.-A dispatch from this city
last night says: ain financial circles there
Is much speculation as to the probable
course of the Secretary of the Treasury with
reference to the purchase of bonds. The
surplus revenues continue to pile up, and
the Secretary may be expected to go in the
market and buy bonds in short time. 1t
is thought likely, however, that he may do
nothing Immediately. He. said this morn
ing as he was leaving that it was quite pos
siblo he would not be back for two weeks ;
that If the President improved at Long
Branch he would take trip to the White
Mountains, and then call back at Long
Branch ON his way to Washington to see
the President. When the Secretary does
issue a call for the purchase of bonds it is
thought at the Treasury that the call will
be for the 81 per cents, which are only n
point or two above par, while the As, AVS
and SIS are at an enormous premium.
When the holders of the accrued 6's ac-
cepted the extension at 81 per cent. it was
the impression that the extended bonds
would be permitted to run until the higher
rate bonds were called in, and in conse-
qucncc Of this opinion the maturing 6's COM
manded premium to the last. 1t is, how
ever, distinctly stated on the face of the cx-
tended bonds that the right was reserved
to call them in at any moment. 1t is said
that the First National Bank Of New York,
which has for long time been considered
the particular pet of the Treasury Depart
mcnt, has of late been large buyer of 4
per cents, and this has been taken by some
as an indication that the bank was taking
advantage ofits peculiar facilities for ac.
quiring possession of Treasury secrets and
that the Secretary intended to buy A per
cents. with his surplus revenues.

Possesses greater natural advantages than our
own, but there are portions of the great grain
bearing West and fertile South where atmos-
pheric influences prejudicial to health mill
tate against them, in some degree. as places
OF residence. Heavy rainfalls and the over
flow OF great rivers, which upon their subsi-
dence leave dank vegetation exposed to the
rays OF the sun, there beget malarial fevers,
and there also the inhabitants are periodically
obliged to use some medicinal safeguard
against the scourge. The most popular is
Hostetter's Stomach Bitters, preventive that
has for over quarter of a century afforded
reliable protection to those whom experience
in the futllty of ordinary remedies for fever
and ague, has taught to substitute for them.

fevers are conquered and averted by this SUI
perb anti-periodic and fortifying medicine as
they are by no other preparation in use. Use
