THE Presidents Marriage Day.
WASHINGTON, May LIST, 1856

w AOhtNN1O1N, -h<'1 LOU, 1'OO'
The Presidents marriage is con
sidered here as fixed for the last
part of June. If it does not take
place then it is thought the we'd
ding will be postponed until fall
4 friend of the President said to-
day; "You may be Very sure that
if he WAS not engaged TO Miss Fol.
som he would lave had an official
denia! Of it printed long ago OH ac-
count CT the young lady. 1t would
be Il great injustice to her to per
nit the stories OF their engagement
and approaching marriage to be so
widely and authoritatively publish
ed without such d denial.n The
subject ofulic Presidents marriage
is not very generally discussed
Few outside OF the immediate cir
cles of the families OF the AL
miniStration appear to take very
much interest in it. Those who.io
talk about it seem 70 take it as a
matter ofcourse that Miss Folsom
is marrying more for position 4han
anything else. She will be the
youngest wife who has ever resided
at the White House.-New York

Queensland Sugar Trade.

The sugar crop of1ss5, in Queensland. amounted
to 5000 TONS an average yield of 26 cwt.of sugar
per acre, which is regarded as satisfactory. The
crop would have been larger but for the drouth in
the preceding year. The season has shown large
increase in the area under cultivation, marked
improvement in the quality of the sugar, and more
economic methods of manipulating the juice. The
scarcity of labor and the low price of sugar, how
ever, preclude the idea of profit to the planter The
" double crushing system appears to be the most
popular method in use. giving 10 per cent more
juice than can be obtained from the single mills
The Queensland government has voted sum of
$4,000 to assist in the further establishment of
sugar cultivation, by experimenting in machinery
and methods of cultivation on some one plantation.
One condition of this grant was the employment of
white labor, but, as it has been found utterly i'm
practicable to comply with this condition, it will
probably be passed over by the government The
difficulty of obtaining Kanaka labor from the South
Sea Islands has resulted in the importation of Ja
vsnese, who, far have given great satisfaction
Planters have been crushing all the year round the
density of the juice, 50 Beaume, being favorable.
With the exception of visitation from lnyriads OF
caterpillars, which attacked the young cane, do
ing temporary injury, the sugar industry of Queens
land appears to be thriving for comparatively
new nterprise.-BrddStreet'

AYERS
Cherry PICTORIAL

Is not 4 new claimant for popular conf
dence, but a medicine which is to-day
saving the lives of the third generation
who have come into being since it was
first offered TO the public.
There is not household in which this
invaluable remedy has once been in
trOduced where its use has ever been
abandoned, and there is not person
who has ever given it n proper trial
for any throat or lung disease suscep-
tible of cure, who has not been made
well by it.
AYERS CHERRY PICTORIAL has,
in numberless instances, cured obstinate
cases of chronic Bronchitis, Larnygitis,
and even acute Pneumonia, and has
saved many patients i'll the earlier stages
of Pulmonary Consumption. 1t is
medicine that only requires to be taken in
small doses, is pleasant to the taste, and is
needed in every house where there are
children, as there is nothing so good as
AYERS CHERRY PICTORIAL for treat
ment of Group and Whooping Cough.
These are all plain facts, which can be
verified by anybody, and should be re-
membered by everybody.

The fatal rapidity with which slight

Nothing else gives such immediate relief
and works SO sure cure i'll all affections
of this class. That eminent physician,
Prof. f. SweetZer, of the Maine Medical
School, Brunswick, Me-, says:-
medical science has produced no other ano-
dyne expeetorant so good AYERS CHERRY

The same opinion is expressed by the

81 have never found, in thirty-fve years of
continuous study and practice of medicine, any
preparation of SO great value as AYERS CHERRY

A Concrete Sidewalk

3 One of the finest specimens of side
walk in town has just been completed in
front of the store of J. I. Waterhouse,
Queen street, by Mr.. John Bowler, the
well-known plasterer. 1t is a patent con-
crete sidewalk, for which Mr.. Bowler
holds the patent, and is similar to those
in use in New York, San Francisco and
the Colonies. 1t can be made in
slabs of any size. Those on Queen
street are two feet wide. Between each
joint there is small piece of asphalt
paper, so that should one slab crack, it
can be taken up and replaced without
injury to the other. About year
ago Mr.. Bowler put down a concrete
driveway for Col. Spreckels at his resi-
dence, Punahou, and to-day there is not
a crack in it. This patent concrete
should be invaluable for use at planta-
ton mills. The slabs can be made to
order, any size, and shipped to any part
of the Islands. 1t is worth while for
our readers to examine the sidewalk in
front of Mr.. Warehouses; store and see
for themselves.
