A party in FL Paso, to whom some
carp were sent, made the mistake of
putting them in artificial ice water, af-
ter the fish had been received there, as
he writes, in good condition; and the
result was they died, in consequence
of alkali and saltpetre in the ice.
They had been on hand in natural
water from Tuesday till Saturday,
showing that the artificial ice water
in which they were subsequently
placed proved fatal to them.

The Cost of ConfagratiOn

Ninety million dollars worth of
property was destroyed by fire in
the United States in 1882. Another
estimate, an English one, puts the
loss at one hundred and ten millions
Russia, with nearly double our pop
ulation, comes next with 100000
600. The English losses were esti-
mated at $45, 100000, the German at
$30,G09,0oO, the French at $15,O00,-
900. The great losses with us are
due to the haste in constructing
frame houses in newly settled re-
giOns. and the necessary inadeduacy
of fire departments in localities
which came in existence, as it
were, yesterday. Hence this is
a great country for fire insurance
companies. We pay NEARLY $60,0OO,-
600 IN premiums every year. All the
rest of the civilized world pays
something less than $10O,000,O00 to
insure against fires. 1t is no wonder
80 many foreign companies compete
for the large fire insurance of this
country. But this is a great tax
upon our resources, for we have
$60,0OO,O8e less to employ actively
in general trade than we would
have il there were no apprehension
of fire. In our large cities we
have very efficient fire depart.
ments, and the number of fire.
proof dwellings are getting more
numerous year by year, but the
rapid increase of immigration, and
the vast extension of our inhabited
area, will long make this country a
profitable field for fire insurance
Occurrences, such as the destruction
of the hotel at Milwaukee, with the
loss Of over a hundred lives, could
not occur in any civilized country
but the United States. Our hotels
places of amusement, and churches
ought to be protected against fire;
but local government is so inefficient
in the United States that nowhere
is the traveller so unsafe as within

OIL the Vitality Voice.

Homer says Of Ulysses, one OF the Greek
heroesi in the great Trojan war "1ou had
thought him fool, SO stifly he held his
sceptre, SO downcast were his eyes, but as
soon as he began to speak-oh, the mighty
voice, and the words thick as the falling
snow" Looking at bottle OF Hunts Rem
edy, one would never suspect its concealed
power, greater than the eloquence Of
ULYSSES. But when it begins to work with
a patient who is afflicted with any kidney
or liver disease, ooh! the mighty voice, F"
and the wonderful healing effects produced
in an incredibly short time. AS there was
but one wise Ulysses" in all the camp Of
the Greeks, there is but one Hunts Remedy
in all the list of kidney remedies and there
is none that works such marvellous results.
Physicians have discovered this, and free-
" prescribe it to their patients; and multi
tudes of the cured sound its praises.
