The warlike preparations Ofthe Chinese have
now reached point at which danger threatens
not only the French, but the representatives OF
other nations who are residents of the Celestial
Kingdom. The VicerOy of Canton has issued
an address calling upon the people to prepare
10 repel the French invaders. This is the first
attempt which has been made by the Govern
ment at Pekin to stir their subjects into active
hostility against foreigners, and there is danger
that in their wrath the Chinese will not dis
criminate between Frcnchmen and citizens of
neutral nations. The likelihood of riot, there
fore, at all the treaty ports in China Is thus
seriously increased; and riots mean dan
gerous complications.

New-York tribune., 1884-01-14

Among the many abuses which flow from the
labor unions, it is encouraging to see one bene-
fit which the public receives. For this we are
indebted to the organization of the tug-boat
men. When the association was first formed
the members appointed a committee to ascer-
tain the condition of the boilers in the boats
plying to and fro in New-York Hmbor. This
action caused the captains of these vessels to
examine their hulls and boilers with great care,
and to make many repairs which otherwise,
probably, would not have been thought Of
There is another good thing which the Union
might do: That is, to find out whether the fire
men and engineers who handle their boats
understand their business.

New-York tribune., 1884-01-14

One of THE TRIBUNE's Washington dispatches
this morning is devoted to the pension claim
industry, which hasnow become so prominentat
the National Capital. 1t will be seen from the
statistics contained therein, that our wars
have given us 1876, 721 pensioners and applicants
for pensions, while there are twice that number
vet TO be heard from. Little account istaken here
of the sisters, cousins, aunts, widows ana
children who will bring up the rear. The sum
which will be required to pay these pensions
is estimated at $1,295, 729, ,000-enOugh to
make the blood of any taxpayer, who is nOtac-
tually consumed by patriotic feelings, run cold.
Not 80 with the statesman. Already over one
hundred pension and bounty bills have been
introduced in Congress at this session. 1t
strains the imagination to try to realize where
the Nation would be left if all these measures
should become laws.

DYSPEPSIA.

sedentary habits, mental worry, nervous
excitement, excess or imprudence in eat
ing or drinking, and various other causes,
induce Constipation followed by general
arrangement of the liver, kidneys, and
stomach, in which the disorder Of each
organ increases the infrmity of the others.
The immediate results are Loss Of Appe-
tite. Nausea, Foul Breath, Heartburn, Flat
ulence, Dizziness, Sick Headaches, failure
of physical and mental vigor, distressing
sense of weight and fullness in the stomach,
and increased Costiveness, all of which are
known under one head as Dyspepsia.
Ineyery instance where this disease does
not originate from scrofulous faint in the
blood, AYERS PILLS may be confidently
relied upon to effect cure. Those cases
not amenable to the curative influence of
AYERS PILLS alone will certainly yield IL
the PILLS are aided by the powerful blood
purifying properties Of AYERS SARsAPA-
RILLA.
Dyspeptics should know that the longer
treatment of their malady is postponed,
the more difficult of cure it becomes.
