A Ministerial Statement.

Rev. Z. A. Harvey, d. d., is the popular
financial secretary Of Howard University,
and Is specially fitted to Judge of merit and
demerit. In recent letter from Washing
ton to friend he SAID: " have for two
years past been acquainted with the remedy
known as Warmers Safe Kidney and Liver
Cure, and with Its remarkable curative
efficiency in obstinate and so-called incura.
BILE cases of Bright's disease in this city. In
some Of these cases, which seemed to be in
the last stages, and which had been given
up by practitioners of both schools, the
speedy change wrought by this remedy
seemed but little less than miraculous.

all its stages, including the first symptoms,
which seem so slight but are so dangerous,
no remedy heretofore discovered can be

A "Searohar.n

A writer gave the title of the book
to his "searcher," and the latter in a
few weeks handed his employer dozens

and magazines Of Europe. This search

Paris, and there he spends most of his
day in running rapidly over all the
newspapers and reviews published in
dozen different languages. He has
beside him list of the names of his
patrons and their works, and wherever
he sees any printed allusion to one Of
them, the 'searcher'' makes a copy Of
it and at once mails the same TO the
interested party. Being retained" by
several literary men, the "searcher"

At eight o'clock the suppaan-bell was
wrung-a signal that work was over
for tho day. And here just a brief glance
at the interior of the Dutch home. The
kitchen firoplaces were enormous-large
enough to roast whole sheep or hog
--and over the cracking hickory logs,
suspended on hooks and trammels, bub-
bled and hssed the large iron pots and
kettles. Hero the family gathered,
while by the light OF the glowing fire
and taliow dip, jAfu,Ou,cs spun their
linen and the burghers smoked their
pipes. In the parlor--that reverenced
apartment OF state--was . similar large
fireplace. with its hickory backlog,
and its shovel and tongs keeping guard
over the andirons (or fire-dogs) and
fender. The chimney -jambs were in
laid with parti-colored tiles Of scriptur-
al designs brought from Holland, and
were extremely quaint The round tea
table stood in the parlor. the large
square dining-table in the kitchen, or
family living-room. In one corner
stood the old Dutch clock-no doubt
the grandfather s--telling the year,
month, day and hour, the rising and
setting of the moon, and when each
hour struck sending forth in silyery
tones some antique air.
In still another corner stood the Hol-
land cupboard, with its glass-doors,
displaying the family plate and china.
There was the massive tankard, the
richly-engraved punch bowl, the she'll
shaped sugar-bowl, with provisions for
the "bite and STIR" aud the coma, or
sitter, for cinnamon and sugar. On the
top stood decanter of large size, a.
ways filled with rum. and beside it
piece of cows horn, smooth at each
end and, hollow, tipped with silver.
And every morning before breakfast
Mynheer must stake horn" as an ap-
petizer, hence the origin Of the term.
In another corner stood the huge oak
en-, iron-bound chest, brimful of fine
linen, of home production. Later this
gave place to the "chest of drawers"
with its brass rings and key-holes. On
the wall hung the pipe-case of mahog-
any, with the drawer underneath ior
tobacco. Every house of pretension
had its cock-loft in the steep roof for
house-saves. In the middle of the hall
was the 'hoist-door," through which
the wheat was hoisted up by crane
and stored in the loft. Over the front
door was shelf, with steps leading up
to it. Here was placed large tobac-
co-box, always kept filed, and for every
one to help himself. On the parlor
walls hung the dim portraits of rela-
tves in the Vaterand, and "ye sconce.

The Natural Wealth Of Ireland.

Extraordinary misconception appears
to prevail with regard TO the natural
wealth of Ireland. II is known that
the density of the population Of that
island is less than one half of that Of
the population of England and Wales.
II is known that distress is not infre-
quent, that famine at times recurs, that
rents are much lower than in the sister
kingdom, and it is commonly assumed
that all this is due TO the natural disad-
vantages OF the soil or climates; that the
fertility of Ireland is not such as to
support the natural increase OF the
population, and that emigration on u
large scale is necessary 10 prevent that
island from devouring hCr children,
after the fashion OF Saturn OF old II
Is true that great difficulty exists in the
way Of obtaining any such clear idea OF
the actual capabilities of Ireland as
would at once and efl,ctually destroy
this assumption. From such expert
ence Of the conduct Of public works in
Ireland, as well us from such sources
OF official information as are accessible,
we have collected few facts, which
are OF no little interest at the present
time. The natural wealth OF Ireland is
immense; and tho field that she offers
for the application both Of capital and
OF labor il one that would yield the
most lucrative returns, II the same de-
gree OF industry and patient skill were
applied that has produced such striking
effects in analogous parts OF England.
In natural products, vegetable, animal,
in abundant fisheries, in noble inland
waterways, in soil that will repay tho
utmost expenditure Of II in labor, in
climate that adds an unusual pro-
ductiveness to tho soil, for suitable
crops Of mining wealth from which tin
and zinc alone are absent, or perhaps
II would be more truthful 10 say, have
not yetbson procured, Ireland oilers a
field for industry, as far rs tho physical
nature Of the country is concerned, TO
which IL would be difficult 10 find
rival In any part OF the Old World.
The main want OF Ireland Is patient
and intelligent industry.
