Consumption Cured.

DR.. ]. H. ScHENcK;
Dear Sir-My son has been cured OF Consump-
ton by the use Of your medicines, and l wish to
give you an account of his case. His sickness be-
gan with heavy cold, which soon brought on a
harsh. dry cough. This kept him awake nights
much, that he became very weak from loss of
sleep. Then he had night sweats, with great loss
Of flesh pain in his lungs, and he frequently raised
bloody matter from them. He was obliged to give
up all work, and afterwards confined to his
room and bed for long time. He advised
to take cod liver oil and did take several bottles,
but this seemed to take away what little appetite
he had, and make HIM worse generally.
At last, from reading IN the papers of the many
cures you had made in serious lung Diseases we
concluded to give your medicines trial. He took
the Pulmonic Syrup, Seaweed Tonic, and Man
drake Pills you direct. and believe that it is
due TO their that my is now alive and well.
He is now attending TO his business as usual.
Yours Respectfully.

THE TARIFF.
The Protsctionist Humbug Cry OF ''British
Gold"

Gold"
New York Herald, Ind
The extreme protectionists in this country
have either run out of ammunition or they
are feeling the facilitating influences of
spring, for they have started anew the we'll
worn but very silly cry of british gold"
The theory that all prominent writers and
speakers who urge revenue reform are paid
for their work by money sent here from
England-for corrupting purposes, of course
is not one that any intelligent man ever
believed IN for moment; bat as the masses,
particularly the dear working people, for
whom the hearts of all extreme protection
lists beat, unselishly and all the time, are
supposed by some people to believe whatever
is told them the British gold" fiction is re-
issued every little while in large edition.
Seriously, If British manufacturers as
body were not the most competent men in
the world to take care of personal earnings,
what could they expect to get were they TO
send corruption fund to the United States?
II it were not for our protection tariff En-
glish ships and English sailors could not be
our ocean carriers. Our protection tariff en-
ables England to mOnopolize the immense
South American trade that should be con-
trolled by the United States. Were our manu-
faCturers to compete at Rio, Valparaiso or
Rosario with the English, as some of them
could do successfully and make money,
the prices would be such as 70 sooner or later
make known at home how large are the
profits on domestic manufactures, and the
information might severely injure protection
theories at the polls; so our merchants forego
much foreign trade to save the home market
and England, 5000 miles further away,
profits largely. Our protective tariff enables
England to save for herself the trade of her
rapidly growing colonies in Australia, much
of which otherwise would come to US. Were
our manufacturers compelled to depend en-
tirely upon their own abilities instead of be-
ing helped at every turn by Government
bounty, we would speedily become Eng
lands most formidable competitor in every
market of the world.
England wants US to remain just as we are
on the tariff, as it excludes our manufactures
from all foreigns ports and secures her a
monopoly therein undisturbed by American
competition. Our high tariff is vastly more
useful and beneficial 70 Great Britain than a
lower tariff would be. If we should adopt
free trade we should not only supply our own
market with American manufactures, but
cut England out of most of the foreign mar
kets and ruin her. Our high tariff protects
her.

1.-THE plan OF numbering the Italian labor
ers on the West Shore Road, says the Kings
ton Freeman, works like a charm. Find
ing it i'm possible to keep track of the men by
their jaw-breaking names, the contractors
concluded to number them. The number of
each Italian is painted in plain figures on
the seat of his pantaloons. Before beginning
work in the erning and at noon and again
at night, the men are formed in line, and the
foreman passes in the rear of them and takes
down each number, in order to ascertain
who is present, as well as who is absent. The
plan is beneficial in two ways-the men are
easily recognized, and they are also kept
from sitting down too much for fear of rub
bling out the figures on the seats of their
pantaloons"

that they had cured him of Lung Disease after he
had been in as low a condition myself con-
sented to do so, as | had no other hope OF beng

BlOOGhOunds.
New York World
"UHcle Toms Cabin" was produced at
Haverly's Theater, Brooklyn, last night.
The performance had reached that part
where the slaves Harris and Eliza make their
escape and the bloodhounds sre let loose in
order to catch them. Those having charge of
the brutes let them loose to go thrO ugh their
psrt of the programme, but it appears they
had previously had misunderstanding in
the stable which had not been satisfactorily
settled.
When they came together on the stage they
proceeded to settle their differences then and
there, aud instead of going after George and
Eliza they went for" each other in earnest
The audience enjoyed the little diversion
until the dogs rolled over in the orchestra,
whore there was excitement, the ladies near
the stage screaming
Mr.. Spencer, who takes the part of Phineas
Fletcher Mr. W. A. Mcconnell, the man
ager, and two or three others, jumped from
the stage after the dogs and tried to separate
them. The orchestra had suddenly become
deserted, the musicians having shot through
the small doors beneath the stage. Mr..
Spencer had his hand severely bitten, but
Mcconnell escaped without injury
1t was some time before the dogs could be
separated, as thew fought desperately. The
dogs are large Siberian bloodhounds and
they are usually taken care of by negro
who understands training them, but the ne
gro stopped at Cincinnati, and the troupe
came without hiIs.
Fred Bean, young Iowa farmer, desired q
wife, but he did not take fancy to the girls
OF his neighborhood. He aspired to some
thing different, and wrote to an Indian
Agent in Dakota. inquiring whether rea-
sonably good-looking squaw could be OBJ
tanned. An exchange of letters and photo
graphs ensued, and he is soon to be married
to the daughter of a Sioux Chief.
Extreme 1ired Feeling.
A lady tells us: THE first bottle has done

fer from that extreme tired feeling which she
did before taking Hoods Sarsapsrills." A
second bottle effected a cure. No other
preparation contains such a concentration of
vitalizing, enriching. purifying and invigor-
ating properties ss Hoods Sarsaparilla.
