mainly of carbonate Of calcium, of sulphate
of calcium, a little cream of tartar, and
some starch and -four" This is pretty
formidable list, though it is by no means
complete, as reference is made only TO the
most common drugs used, but if these are
sdulterated it is pretty certain hiatt others
are. The exposure Of the Philadelphia
Press, published at the great drug center OF
Americs, has attracted much comment.
The Chicago Times says: @When it is con-
sidered that human life hangs upon
the use Of these drugs one is al
most tempted to exclaip with 'Mac-
BETH Throw pbysic TO the dogs; PIl
none of it," or with "Hamlet," "This phJnic
but prolongs thy sickIy days" or with
"Kent, J" "Kill thy physician, and the fee be-
stow upon the foul disease" One could
tolerate with some degree OF forbearance the
adulteration of everything we eat and drink
30 long rs it was supposed that the physician
and druggist would come to our relief with
sanative drugs, but if We can have no con-
idence in the purify of medicines, when
cures depend upon their purity, what hope
is there for mankind? If the old saying be
true that the world takes too much medi-
cine, then in the name of humanity let the
adulterations be of a harmless sort that per-
chance the bills of mortality may be some
what less startling than they are at present.
II it be impossible for all druggists to be
honest, then let the physicians little slip of
paper, which stands between life and death,
be honored when presented with bran and
water rather than with noxious compounds.
II is not likely that all druggists are dishon-
est, but would it not be well for phyeioisua
now and then when their medicines do not
have the proper effect, to analyze them and
see what their ingredients are? As the case
stands at present, the patient might as well
refuse medicine altogether, in which Gaze
the chances for recovery might be even. or
fall back on the old lady and pennyroyal
ties, if they can be found in anything like
original purity"

REASONS FOR SECRECY.

The Car is utterly powerlessss a monarch
previous to being crowned; be cannot pro-
claim war OF sign treaty of peace, nor can
he confer decorations of higher order than
the Vladimir, nor can he enter the throne
room. He ia not styled by his sixteen titles,
but is simply addressed as Alexander, son OF
Alexander, and, by courtesy only, Emperor
Of all the Ruseias. Any document he might
put his seal TO would be disregarded if not
countersigned by two of the ministers of
State. He is in every respect considered
minor or heir presumptive to the en-
pire, in which he has no authority, and
which is governed by a regency OF minis
tiers and hereditary noblemeD. 1t can, there
fore, be easily understood that the cars
have always hastened their coronation, not
wishing to be under tutelage, and in the ma
jority of cases the coronation has occurred
within two months of the death of the Cars
predecessor. Where there has been a dis
pute about the throne, or even where the
throne has been usurped, as ia the case of
Catherine the Great, the coronation has
taken place Immediately. Catherine left ST..
Petersburg secretly on the very day of the
death of Peter, and fastened to Moscow,
where she was crowned within week. The
Russians do not believe the Car to be "the
most powerful by the grace of God" until
he has been anointed at Moscow. Peter III
was buried In the common burial ground OF
the little church OF 81. Athanasiur, instead
of being laid among the ozsrs inside the
church of ST. Peter and st. Paul, in the st.
Petersburg citadel, because, although he was
Emperor, he had not been crow ned.
TUE GAUGES OF DELAY.
Many reasons have been ascribed for the
of the coronation of the pres
emit Gar, the principal one being that il was
feared he might be assassinated by the Nj
hilists; but those who are acquainted with
the reignipg imperial family know that they
do not lack courage, besides which, the pres
ent emperor goes out daily on foot and unac
in st. Petersburg, which he evil
IDENTIFY would not do if he were afraid of The
Nibilists. The real reason for delaying this
well-informed Russians say, was
one of respect for the glorious memory OF The
late Gar, Alexander ii, to whom his son was
very much attached, and whose loss he sill
mourns. He has given proofs OF his great
devotion in not following the ordinary rule,
''Le Roi est mort; uiue lie Roi."

Az important accession to the ranks OF

shall. whom the Cameron men nomir-
ated for congressman-at-lsrge, but who re-
fused to remain on the ticket, has taken the
stump for the independent candidates. Mr..
Marshall predicates his action on the asser-
ton that the regulars have broken every
plank of the platform upon which they
nominated Gen. Beaver. There Is always q
considerable percentage Of voters who are
turned by decision like this of Mr.. Mar
shall, and the independents rightly regard
his joining them as large reinforcement.
Undoubtedly the administr alton triumph in
