New YORK, April 23.-The strike of
workmen in the Williamsburg retineries
has doomed prices. Granulated sugar
was quoted at &c Saturday last. Yes
terday it reached 7sc 1t is said prices
are sure to advance still higher. The
stock of refined sugar on hand amounts
to practically nothing. business has
been slack and dealers have been buying
sugar in quantities Just sufficient to sup.
ply the demand. Now that the country
demand has increased the strike has
caused prices to advance out OF proper
ton to the natural course of trade. Raw
sugar was quoted at lll6c on April
l4th Yesterday it was 5sc. Thisshows
a slight advance in cost OF the raw mate
rial, which is not accounted for by the
present strike, but which will account
for something of the advanced price OF
refined sugar, The strike, however, has
tended to very much strengthen the ad.
vance.

AYERS
Cherry PeCtoral

Is not new claimant for popular conf
dcnce, but medicine which is to-day
saving the lives of the third generation
who have come into being since II was
first offered to the public.
There is not a 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 1t u proper trial
for any throat or lung disease suscep-
tible of cure, who has not been made
well by 1t.
AYERS CHERRY PICTORIAL has,
in numberless instances, cured obstinate
cases of chronic Bronchitis, Laryngitis,
and even acute Pneumonia, and has
saveh many patients in the earlier stages
of Pulmonary Consumption. IL 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-

CHICAGO, April 23.-The strike on the
Lake Shore Railroad is at an end. Chair
main Staub, of the Switchmen's Union,

to the yard master there for duty. Pres
ident John Newell, of the Lake Shore
road, Just said to representative OF the
Associated Press, eve have allowed
the old men to get back to work at their
own request without any stipulation
whatever on our part. Eight non

the Union men formerly in our employ.
The men brought here from the cities
will not be put to work in our yards
here. The order for the men to return
to work was telegraphed from the gen.
eral offices of the Lake Shore Company

switch engines began to leave the round
house, and the making up of trains was
at once begun. The blockade will be
completely ended this afternoon"
AT 3P. NJ. engine No. 46l pulled out
of the roundhouse, manned by crew of
the strikers. There was general shak-
ing of hands and congratulations among
the men, and everybody seems pleased.

of our inhalations, which ease the coughing,
facilitate expecloration. and promote

Gold.Thread Embroidery.

The use of gold thread in embroidery is
of unknown antiquity, and certainly older
than the code of Manu-. Indian and Chi
nese stuffs were interviewer with gold in
the earliest ages. Babylon, Tarsus, Alex
andria, Bagdad, Damascus, Antioch, Tabriz,
Sicily, Tripoli, were successfully famous
for their silk brocades." We have de-
tailed description of the ephod of gold
brocade made for Aaron, Exodus xxx,
2,3) "He made the ephod of gold, blue,
purple and scarlet, and fine twined linen.
And they beat the gold into thin plates,
and cut it into wires, to work 1t in the blue
and the purple and in the scarlet and the
fine linen, with cunning work" The Jews
are supposed to have brought the art from
Egypt, but no stuffs woven with gold have
been found in Egyptian tombs. At later
period as we learn from the Arabian
Nights gold brocade was common in
Egypt. In the story of Abu Mohammed
{" Lazy Bones'1 we read that the vesti-
bule Of his house was hung with curtains
OF azure brocade purpled with red gold"
Golden embroidery was used in the prepa-
ration of Athene's Peplos at Athens. The
historians of Alexander the Great speak of
gold as a material of dress. Darius wore a
robe adorned with golden hawks, and his
conqueror and the Greek Generals adopted
the same gorgeous apparel. Pliny speaks
of fabrics consisting entirely of gold Other
instances are the golden mantle of St. &C.
ella tmartyred about go A. D., in which
her body was found wrapped by Pope Pas
cal in S21 the shroud Of Probus Ansicius
and his wife, found in the foundations of
st. Peters at Rome; the dress of the En-
peror Honorius, and others found in graves
in England. France. Switzerland, etc

III loIOAL' ANI III HIVI.OVfINt-I9 iI-I4UIII :
OF the superior physical condition and
comfort of America it is unnecessary to
speak. To go from the west end of Lon
don to the east end of London is to travel
from Paradise to Purgatory. No American
can remain for even short time in sight
of the terrible contrasts in condition,
brought about by the proprietary system
of the Old World, without being driven by
it almost to the verge of socialism. 1t is
true, which is SO often said, that we know
nothing about real poverty in America. In
comparison with the terrible poverty and
want visible in foreign places, the hum
blest of our citizens live in afiluence.

WHY HE FOUGHT AT GETTYSBURG,
Was 1t Choice between Evils or a De-
Hibernate Plan of Operation?

In an article in the Century for Deem
Der, General Henry J. Hunt, who COM
manded all the Union artillery in the bat
tie writes as follows:
1t had not been General Lee intention
to deliver a general battle whilst so far
from his base unless attacked, but he now
found himself by the mere force of circum-
stances committed to one. If it must take
place, the sooner the better His army was
now nearly all on the ground, and delay,
whilst it could not improve his own posi-
ton, would certainly better that of his an
tagoniSt. Longstreet, indeed, urged General
Lee instead of attacking to turn Meade's
left, and by interposing between him and
Washington, and threatening his commu-
nications, to force him to attack the Con-
federate army in position but General Lee
probably saw that Meade would be under
no such necessity; would have no great
difficulty in obtaining supplies, and-dis-
regarding the clamor from Washington
could play waiting game which it would
be impossible for Lee to maintain in the
open country. He could not advance on
Baltimore or Washington with Meade in
his rear. nor could his army subsist itself
in a hostile region which would soon swarm
with additional enemies. His communi-
cations could be cut off, for his recommen-
dation to assemble even q small army at
Culpepper to cover them and aid him had
not been complied with.
A battle was q necessity to Lee, and a
defeat would be more disastrous TO Meade,
and less so to himself at Gettysburg than
at any point east of it. With the defiles of
the South Mountain range close in his
rear, which could be easily held by a small
force, safe retreat through the Cumber-
L., i I. d, -.
once through these passes, would be practi-
cally on the banks of the Potomac, at a point
already prepared for crossing Any posi-
ton east of Gettysburg would deprive him
of these advantages. 1t is more probable
that General Lee was influenced by cool
calculation of this nature than by hot blood
or that the opening success of a chance bat
tie had drawn him off his balance. What
ever his reasons. he decided to accept the
gage of battle offered by Meade, and to at
tack as soon as practicable. Ewell had
made arrangements to take possession of
Culp's Hill in the early morning, and his
troops were under arms for the purpose by
the time Meade had finished the moon
light inspection of his lines, when it was
ascertained by a accommodating party sent
out by Johnson, that the hill was occupied
and its defenders on the alert and further,
from captured QlSpatcn from Ueneral
Sykes to General Slocum, that the Fifth
Corps was on the Hanover road only four
miles off, and would march at A. M, for
Culp's Hill. Johnson thereupon deferred
his attack and awaited EwelPs instruc-
tiOns.
General Lee had, however during the
night determined to attack the Federal left
with Longstreet's corps, and now instructed
Ewell, so soon as he heard Longstreets
guns. to make diversion in his favor, to
be converted, if opportunity offered, into
real attack"

EFFECT OF TEA DRINKING ON HEALTH.-
The consumption of tea has beome so
enormous as to have suggested a study of
its effects upon the health of the people.
There are those who look upon it as an
evil only second to that connected with the
excessive use of alcohol. Tea is spoken of
as an agreeable cerebral stimulant, quick
ening intellectual operation, removing
headache and fatigue and promoting cheer
fulness and sense of well-being. When
it is used to excess the digestive and nerv
Gus systems are especially affected. There
is no doubt that there are cases of dyspepsia
caused by the inordinate use of strong tea,
