Ayers CATHARTIC PILLS are the best
of all purgatives for family use. They
are the product of long. laboriouS, and
successful chemical investigation, and
their extensive use, by physicians in
their practice, end by all civilized ma
tions, proves them the best and most
efiectual purgative Pill that medical
science can devise. Being purely veg
etable no harm can arise from their
use, and being sugar-coated, they are
pleasant to take. In intrinsic value
and curative powers no other Pills
can be compared with them; and every
person, knowing their virtues, Will
employ them, when needed. They
keep the system in perfect order, and
maintain in healthy action the whole
machinery of life. Mild, searching and
efiectual, they are especially adapted
to the needs of the digestive apparatus,
arrangements of which they prevent
and cure, if timely taken. They are
the best and safest physic to employ
for children and weakened constitu-
tions, where a mild but eiiectual
cathartic is required.

An Encouraging Quito ok.

The Rdil,cay Register, of st. Louis,
takes an exceedingly encouraging view
of the prospect ahead not only for rail-
way, but all other industries. 1t thinks
the skies bright with promise, and
that the unhealthy reaction which was
reasonably to have been feared from the
excess of hopefulless and even reckless
ness, the result of last years prosperity.
has come and virtually passed. Stocks
and securities were then advanced to
fancy figures, but they have now shrsnk
to true values, aud these values it
believes are conservative. 1t does not
believe that there will be nearly as much
railroad building this year as last, but
there are numerous old roads that will
need new rails, and worn out equip
ments must be replaced, since the
steadily increasing volume of traffic can
not be accommodated without additional
facilities, and to meet these healthy de-
mands will tax the producing capacity
of rolling mills and manufacturing
establishments. 1t says: Prom all that
can be learned, and taking all things
into consideration, it is likely that there
will be full crops of fruit and grain in
all parts of the country. The recent
rainfall in California, and the absence of
frosts in the Eastern, Middle and
Western States, make it proba-
bic that there will be no failure
of the harvests. While there will be
no unusual demand abroad for our grain
there will be market for all that we
have to export. The abundant supply
of capital at home and abroad must, for
the most part, be invested in our securi-
ties. We are justified, therefore, in the
belief that the year will be a prosperous
one; that the manufacturers will be kept
busy; that the producers will be rewarded
for their toll, and that the railroads will
have all the traffic they want. The
recent compact between the trunk lines
and the formation of pools. the observ-
snce of the latter for five years insured
by deposits of money, render it exceed
ingly improbable that rates will be again
reduced, so it seems certain that the
railroads viii receive adequate remune-
ration for the freight and passengers
they may carry. Those who see clouds
in the horizon must look through dark
spectacles, for there are no threatenlDgs
to be noted in reality"

Mr.. Arthur deserves commentator for
the nerve he has shown in the veto Of the
anti Chinese bill. It passed both Houses
by a large majority, and this it was
thought would influence him to sign it.
1t is q source Of congratulation, however,
that he allowed, in this instance, regard
for the sacredness Of treaties and the
commercial welfare of the country to
outweigh partisan or other considera-
tons. We are always glad to accord
commentator to our Federal Executive
when 1t is possible. and only wish the
opportunities for so doing were more
frequent. This veto, however, may be
Mr.. Arlhur's first step in the right direc-
ton, and who knows shat before his ad-
ministratiOn comes to an end he will
fully realize the great desira5iiiy of be
ing President Of the United States rather
than the mere tool and henchman of Rad
icalism.

The want of a fractional currency
which can be readily. transmitted through
the mails is being very generally felt
Silver is too heavy for that purpose,
postage stamps are unsatisfactory, and
money orders only for fractions of a
dollar cannot be procured. The objec-
ton to the issue of a fractional paper
currency are that such issue win initiate
the currency of the country unduly.
and that it will soon become dirty and
ragged, thereby causing much incon-
venience and loss.
II IS believed, however, that all these
objections can readily be done away
with. and certain sensible suggestions to
that end have been made. 1t is proposed
that this postal currency be authorized
TO serve the purpose for which it is
designed and 10 other. Let the post
offices sell money orders payable to
bearer at any post Office for sums less
than one dollar, at an advance of from
one TO three cents, according to the
amount, verified by the stamp
of the issuing office. and, in
order to prevent their circulation as
money. redeemable not longer than one
month after the date stamped upon
them. Il is argued that the sale of such
orders IS these would be very inexpen-
sive for the government; it would bring
in n revenue in excess Of the cost; it
would provide exactly what is need
al for small remittances through the
mails. and it would not leave the coun-
trv to be vexed by such disreputable cur
rencv as was the wretched shinplNster Of
the ante-silver era. An order once is
sued and redeemed could not be
used a second time. The accounts
If issuing Offices would be kept
as simply as are those OF the sales
If stamps. and the orders redeemed
uould be the vouchers Of the paying
Office This, or something like it, would
certainly be preferable to the old system
If naper fractional currency and would
do away with the Inconvenience at
present experienced in transmitting
small sums IN letters.
