only cloud east upon the happiness OF
the reuni0n with his family was caused
by the continued illness Of his eldest
son, young mau of twenty>four,
whose disease, when the admiral sailed
from Monievideo, had been reported
as suecumbing to the treatment of the
family doctor. But his father found
it otherwise; the unfortunate young
man was suffering severely from chron.
10 disease Of the kidneys and bladder.
Before leaving Boston the Admiral
had purchased copy of DR.. Pierce's
book, THE Peoples Common Sense
Medical Adviser" he read this walls
liable book thoroughly, and upon his
arrival home had made up his mind
as to the future treatment of his son.
The latter was sent to the famous
lnvalids' Hotel, at Buffalo, N. Y,
conducted by DR.. R. V. Pierce, and
his competent staff of specialists,
where, under skilltul treatment, the
suffered soon found relief and a pers
manent cure.
In the library of his handsome
home theAdmiral placed one of the four
bottles sent him by the seaman Brown.
Conspicuous in its pretty frame and
stand it attracts all eyes, which can
easily read the lines in golden letters
inscribed on the tablet under the
stand as follows: This bottle once
contained the ammunition which Sc.
cured for Admiral - the victory in
his battle off Cape Horn with the
enemy consumption. His undying
gratitude is thus shown for that which
this bottle and its mates held"

Ny dear Friend.-Your kind favor
containing congratulations on my
restoration to health is before me.
When we parted thirty months ago
little did we imagine that either
would be brought near deaths door
BY q disease which selects for its vic
tins those who present an internal
field of constitutional weakness for its
first attack, because you and | were
in those days the persOnihcation OF
health-and can claim this to-day,
thank Godl Why l can do so will be
told tomorrow, when We meet at your
dinner, as you only know that | have
passed through terrible illness; my
delivery from death being due to the
wonderful discovery in medical
science, made by a man who to-day
stands in the front rank OF his fellow
workers-uneQualed by any lin my
own opinion. That |, who heretofore
have ever been the most orthodox be-
lever in the old school of medicine,
its application and results, should
thus recant in favor of that which is
sneered at by old practitioners, may
startle you, but seeing is believing.
and when | recount the attack made
on my old hulk, how near l came to
lowering my colers, and the final vol
ley which through the agency above
mentioned, gave me victory, you will
at least credit me with just cause for
sincerity in my thankfulness and teN

A TALE OF TIKI SEA.
The Remarkable Voyage Of q Man
and q Boat.

San Francisco Chronicle.
On the 10th of August, 1882, Der.
nard Gilfoy, q native of Buffalo, N.
Y, left the port of San Franoisco,
bound ION q voyage of pleasure" to
Australia. The craft In which he
sailed was q dory, 10 feet long, 6 foot
beam, a depth Of Q feet 6 inches, and
8 register of two tons. Gilfoy was
the only passenger, and he started
with the determination of performing
the unparalleled feat of crossing the
Pacific single-handed in a common
sailing boat. The cutter, for she WIS
little more, was named the Pacific,
and was covered In all over, with the
exception of a couple of matches, one
amidship and the other aft. The fore
part was used mostly for the water
casks, which were filled with salt water
as the fresh was used up, and the after
part was used as kitchen, cabin and
sleeping.room. Nothing was heard
from Gilfoy until the arrival
In this port of the barkentine
Tropio Vance from Tahiti, whose
captain reported that he had sighted
the Pacific on November 10th. He
had given Gilfoy his correct bearings
and 9 quantity Of fruit, and had learned
that after q week Of favoring weather
the Pacific had encountered twenty.
nine days Of alternate calms and head
winds, which had driven Gilfoy to
shorten his allowance. He crossed the
line In longitude 136 deg. on Friday,
September 29th, and then met With
good winds, before which he ran
south between ATTITUDES 8 deg. south
and 10 deg. south. His principal dis.
comfort, he said, had been the too
familiar habits of the sharks, which
every night came humping the boat
with their ugly shouts. To rid himself
of them no made q harpoon q of a
boat hook, and succeeded In render
ing them 30 shy that by propping up
his shirt at night In the place where he
usually sat by day, he was enabled to
take his rest comparatively undis-
turbed.
The conclusion of the Paclfc's ex-
trsordinsry voyage is gathered from a
long account published In the Mary
borough (QueenSland) Chronicle of
February Sd. It sppsars that
after leaving the Troplc Vance things
went badly with Gilfoy. On the 18th
of December, being then to the south
of the Friendly tales, a heavy Q
broke over the boat and cspsizsd her.
He went backward into the water, and
1t was only by all hours hard work,
with the aid Of a Floating anchor"
that he was enabled to right the dory.
No sooner was she righted than an.
other heavy Sea capsized her q second
time. Again be lighted her and

NEW YORK FARMERS :"
The Great Cattle Ranches Of the Far
West Described.

New York Times, March 20.
The "New York Farmers" dined to.
gether last evening for the first time
during the present season at the Hotel
Brunswick. Mr.. James A. Burden
presided, and the following members
were present: James Otis, John D.
Wing, D. F. Appleton, John j. Holly,
Benjamin L. Swan, Richard Church,
Samuel Thoree, Gen. U. s. Grant, A.
Potts, Thomas Dickson, Samuel Sloan,

don. The guests of the evening were
Mr.. Thomas Sturgis, of Boston; MI.
James T. Gardiner and Mr.. Phillip
Dater, Of New York; the Hon. George
B. Loring, Ct Washington, and MI.
Richard Church, of Livingston coun.
ty, New York. TIE special subject
selected for discussion was ''The Great
Cattle Ranches of the Far West" and
Mr.. Burden introduced az the first
speaker Mr.. Thomas SturgiS, who, he
said, represented 60, 0OO head of cat.
tie. Mr.. Sturgis said that the first re-
quest prerequisite to successful cattle
raising was a climate In which cold and
rain did not coexist. Cattle would
stand great extremes of either, but
not together. At Fort Garland in the
st. Louis Valley, the post. trader had
told him that his beef cattle had
been repeatedly subjected to a tenn
perature Of 45 degrees below zero, and
that during all that time he had been
able to supply beef of good quality to
the post. This was due to the abso-
lutte dryness Of tie climate throughout
the cattle raising regions of the west.
To show the enormously rapid growth
of the stock business In the west he
cited the Wyoming Stock Growing as
ISOLATION, of which he was himself .
member. Ten years ago It was or
ganized With ten members, represent
Ing 5000 head Of cattle, worth $780,.
600. To-day It had Q membership Of
. hundred, representing q million head
OF cattle, worth $50, 900, 900. Last
year they sent to market 200, 600 head
of cattle, which Melted to the owners
about $40, 600, 900. The four great
difficulties they had to contend
with were the Indians, the
white outlaws and thieves
OF the border, contagious
disease, and the climate. The first
three had been practically reduced to
nothing by the association. They had
their " police watching every out.
let by which cattle could be struggled
out of the country, and they had or
ganizsd a quarantine system which
had effectually prevented the intro
duction of disease. Mr.. Sturgis closed
by advocating q similarly rigorous
quarantine system to prevent the ex-
port OF diseased cattle. We have now
a scheduled" country, and thin meant
q loss OF two cents q pound on the
5000 tons of beef which left this
country weekly for Europe, or a grand
total of SO, 600, 900 a year. He had
been assured by DIR. Loring that an
annual expenditure of not exceeding
~, 600, 900 would provide ar efficient
sanitary cattle police.
Mr.. Dster said that he believed the
most profitable industry In the west
would be the raising Of horses and
mules. Draught horses and mules
