thing a claim agent can supply, and if the
claimant is uneducated what assistance he
needs can be given by any one fit to be a
justice OF the peace in a country town. The
pretension of Washington attorneys, that
they have superior facilities for the prose-
cution of pension cases; are, therefore, I'M
founded. We regret that our duty compels
us to make statements which will injure the
business of honest gentlemen that we esteem,
but is their misfortune that there are a
number of INSCRIPTIONS and dishonest
claim-agents in Washington, and that pen
sioners at distance have no sufficient
means of distinguishing the honest from the
dishonest

the Chinese.
LONDON, Sept. Admiral Meyer has mott
fed his government from Hong Kong that it
will be nearly, if not altogether, impossible,
with the means at his disposal, to prevent or
retard the movement of Chinese troops by
water past Hong Kong The Chinese he re-
ports, have already succeeded in passing three
transports laden with troops and munitions
of war and landing them all at Pakhoi, the
base of Chinese operations against Tonquin.
Admiral Meyer states that the Chinese trans
ports did not touch Hong Kong nor pass
within observing distance The French ad-
miral further informs the government that
the Chinese are collecting munitions of war
at Canton, and that intelligence has reached
Hong Kong showing that Chinese troops are
being moved inland in the direction of
Tonquin
The latest news from Hong Kong is that
Admiral Meyer, commander of the French
fleet, has received sealed instructions from
his government. What these are has not
transpired. 1t is rumored, however, that
the instructions are warlike, but are so con-
Trajectory as to embarrass the admiral. 1t
is known that Meyer has been ordered to
intercept the southwark movement of
Chinese vessels of war, and at the same time
make a naval demonstration off Canton and
retain Saigon as the naval station. No war
having been actually declared, it is not
known how the French admiral can either
interfere with the free movement of Chinese
war vessels or prevent them from landing
Chinese troops upon Chinese territory, no
matter how contiguous to Tonquin.

Tho Chicago Inter Ocean estimates that
sixty million dollars worth of liquor is annu-
ally consumed in the state Of Illinois. This
conclusion is not mere guesswork, but is the
result OF careful computation. On the au.
thority of the came enterprising journal we
are informed that there are in Chicago $3.50
saloons the receipts of which reach grand
total of S32, 0S2, $50. This amount appears
almost incredible, being more than fifty dol
lars per capita But when the large floating
population is taken into consideration the es-
innate does not appear doubtful The num-
Der of saloons in Chicago is one to every one
hundred and sixty inhabitants. In the state
outside Of the city the proportion is ono to
each two hundred and seventy of the popu-
laton. For the whole state this is an average
expenditure for liquor of twenty dollars per
capita. 1t is probable that the people of Iii.
nols are not more thirsty than the people OF
other states and we may infer that twenty
dollars per head is near the amount expended
for drink by the whole people of the United
States. In the year ending June 3d. 1882,
there was paid to the Government tax on
seventy-two million gallons of spirituous
liquors and five hundred and twenty seven
million gallons Of fermented liquors, which
it is calculated cost the consumers no less
than nine hundred and thirty million dollars
This is eighteen dollars and sixty cents per
capita for the entire population. Now eigh-
teen dollars and sixty cents is not very
great amount for any one man to expend for
drink in three hundred and sixty five days
and good deal is used for other purposes
but when it is remembered that those who
drink must consume the share of those who
do not the amount is startling aud becomes a
subject worthy of profound consideration
Aside from the idleness, vice and incapacty
which are the inevitable outgrowth of exces-
siye liquor drinking, it is quite worth the
while of every one to estimate the cost in
dollars and cents. OF the number OF per-
sons who drink there are comparatively few
who, in justice to their purses, can afford to
do So In general, every inordinato drink
means proportionate denial of comfort or
pleasure in other more important affairs.
The cost of drink looked at in the aggregate
certainly ought to stagger the judgment of
any man who stops to ask himself the use of
all this enormous expenditure. Philadelphia

We are glad to express our cordial agree
ment with the views expressed in the follow
ing paragraph from the Albany Express.
1t may be safely said that person whose
brain is wearied with intellectual work during
the week, or whose nervous system is exposed
to the strain Of business or professional life,
ought TO sleep within an hour or two after
his Sundays dinner, if he can. 1t is sur
prising how much like a seven day clock the
brain will work If the habit Of Sunday
nap" be once formed Nature will take adj
vantage of it as regularly and gratefully as
she does of the nightly sleep, and do her best
to make up lost time. People, on the other
hand, whose week of toll is chiefly physical,
may well give their mind activity while their
body is resting. Two sermons and three or
four hours OF solid reading are rest to some
on Sunday, while to others such a course
amounts to positive Sabbath breaking. Sun
day is a day Of rost-not day Of work rei-
gious or otherwise-it is a day for repose, not
for exhaustion But what the dogmatists on
one side and the ilberal liberals on the other
are apt to overlook is the fact that all men do
not rest alike any more than they labor alike,
and what will help to save one may aid in
killing another. After tho Sunday dinner,
then, one should seek rest, innocent recrea-
tons, helpful happiness, sleep or read, or go
and help instruct and interest mission
school, or visit the sick and suffering, accord
ing to his needs and his gifts. We Ameri-
cans haven't yet fully learned the art of
domestic enjoyment, any more than the law
of service to others. More men ought to re-
lieve their wives of the sole care of young
children on Sunday taking them out to walk
or ride, and inviting the mother to go as com
pauy, or leaving her at home to enjoy unmo-
Tested q much needed season Of quiet In
suitable weather portion of the day may be
proftably spent out Of doors. There is moth
ing in the example or teachings of Christ
nothing in the nature Of His religion, of Gods
requirements, or of mans needs-which de-
clares that the Sabbath can only be kept holy
in DOORS 1t is to be honored and haowed,
but its highest observance is ministration
to mans highest needs. We hope and believe
that the day will never come when Sunday
will be secularized or turned into a gay holi-
day in America, as it is in Europe but the
progress made toward a rational Christian en-
joyment of the day within the last fifty years
shows that the superiority of man to the in
stitution, as proclaimed by the Saviour, is
coming to be apprehended"
