ARTICLE SECOND.

IN ANOTHER PART of this issue we present large advertisement headed 'The Giant of Medicines" It goes without say ing that H. H. Warner & Go. have educa- ted the people of this Country to the be- lief, which is rational and well founded, that 8 vast majority of human diseases originate in improper action of the kidneys and liver, that improper action allowing the blood to become filled with uric and lithic acids, or kidney and liver waste, which in flame and irritate all the organs and thereby produce so many different diseases. Hence a remedy that will correct the false action of the kidneys and liver and neutralize the acids of the system very naturally cures all the diseases caused by this excess of acid in the blood. At this holiday season no present would be more acceptable to any suffering friend than case of dozen bottles of the wonderfully effective Warmers Safe Cure. The proprietors do not ask you to believe what they say, but frankly tell you to write to those whose testimonials are published and to ask your friends and neighbors what they think of this great remedy. That shows how great is their confidence in the favor of the public, on which they reckon because of the merits of their preparation.

Hon. N. ID. SPerry Discusses the Tariff
 Question Before the Farmers.
 At the session of the State grange in Hart ford yesterday Hon. N. D. Sperry, of this city, made an address on the tariff question and it's effect on the agricultural interests of Connecticut In the discussion of the sub- jest MT. Sperry said: The first thing done by Congress after the formulation of an oath was to devise tariff for revenue and the en- couragement of industries. Thus the primal importance of the matter was signi6ed by Washington and his advisers. The tariff is for both revenue and protection. Revenue reform people mean that they favor an indis- criminate tariff. They would make discrimi. nation in favor of goods that can be made ir this country as cheaply as abroad. The pro tectionist, however, favors such duties as will encourage industries. Whenever an article gets to he made as cheaply here as elsewhere they put it aside and out of the list. In this manner the country has been grow ing stronger and stronger. A New Haven merchant of ssanding says that before 1861- all tariffs before that. were free trade tar iffs-90 per cent of the goods on his shelves were of foreign manufacture. Now 90 per cent. are ofKome make. Could this change have been effected without tariff?" "Nev- er" Every manufacture destroyed by for eign competition throws so many more men into agriculture and crowds the field. Con- gress has also adjusted the tariff 50 that hay, wheat, potatoes, corn, poultry, butter, tobac- co, etc., are protected. If the tariff were re- moved from tobacco Sumatra would root out an industry that yields annually in Con- necticut between one and two millions. The tariff of 1842 built up New Haven from 3 oomparatively small community, created Derby, Wallingford, Meriden, New Britain and many other manufacturing towns. It raised poultry from five and eight cents a pound and increased wages.
 The speaker proceeded with further argu- ment in an interesting manner to the close and was enthusiastically received. The further proceedings of the grange are given in another column.

ExPLORATIONs IN THE EAs,

 Editor Ward of the Hndependent-Lec- ture Yesterday Before the Theologi.
 cal School.
 The Rev. William Hayes Ward, D. D.; ed itor of the New York Independent, lectured in the Marquand chapel yesterday afternoon on Explorations in the East" Mir. Ward was director of the Wolf exploration in Bab- ylonia and Assyria. Previous to that Amer ca had done nothing in the East. MT. Wards lecture was an interesting talk giving points and descriptions of the people and country. He is an eminent arch@ologist and one of the few who have ~.~a sa.orougn stndv of Assyria and Babylonia. After leav- ing rareus for Babylon the country is most deserted sne, void of travellers and every thing ele. Marash is one of the three cen entiye1y unexplored. Bagdad, two or three days journey from Babylon, is of great in- tsrest in history and the best center in the world for obtaining antiquities. Babylon is as ruinous and dismal now as any place on earth, too hot and unhealthy for exploration except in winter. MT. Ward and his party photographed all the places and objects of interest and he allowed the photographs to be passed around among the audience for in- spection. In closing he made reference to the mounds at Babylon and the bricks of Nebuchadnezzar, which are now used for building purposes. He brought many tab lets and objects of interest with him on his return. These will be shown this afternoon, when he lectures upon the antiquities of these countries. The lecture will begin at 8

The Board of Police Commission
 Vote to sustain Chief Bollman's Dee
 cIsion-Sergeant William K. Schmidt
 of the Precinct Placed on the Retired
 List.
 A special meeting of the Board of Police Commissioners was held last night princi palIy to take action on Chief Bollman's sus- pension of Officer Mcbride. All the mem- bers of the Board were present. Mayor Holcomb was in attendance. After Chief
 Bollman had told the Board that he thought it better to suspend the office and leave it to
 be decided by the Board rather than fine him
 it went into executive session. After secret
 consultation for some time the closed doors
 were opened and the reporters admitted. It
 was voted by the Board to sustain Chief Boil
 man in his decision in Officer McBride's
 suspension and that the officer be returned to
 duty.
 Officer Mcbride was suspended ten days ago
 for getting shave in barber shop while on
 duty The suspension of the officer caused
 much discussion in police circles. he is 0 roundsman and had always proved very eff cient and faithful to his duty. Many thought at the time the sentence too heavy. Officer McBride after thanking the Board last night S~OoSA1SS ]AS->~S-s night, which was granted by Chief Bollman, to whom he was referred.
 Commissioner William M. Shannon said last night that he didn't think it right to suspend the roundsman for so long a time. Seaman N. Smith, formerly tillerman on hook and ladder No. 1, and a son of Captain Smith of the precinct, applied for position on the supernumerary force.
 The Board voted to place Sergeant Wm. K. Schmidt on the reserve force at $1.0S per day, one-third of his present pay. Schmidt is the first officer retired on the reserve list. He was appointed on the supernumerary grade of the force in 1868. He had served for some time on the Gold watch" when they l were appointed by the Common Council and Board of Aldermen. He was on the old watch l under Captain Hayden. He left the force, enlisted and served during the civil war. Upon his return after the war he again went on the force as a supernum erary and in 1868 he was appointed reg ular. He has served the force faithfully and efficiently. Ser geant Schmidt will report daily to the police office. The retiring of Sergeant Schmidt will leave his place open for one of the many applicants. Roundsrnan Mcbride is one o the men in the line of promotion. It is sai6 l that Officer Helget is also aspiring for Ser geant Schmidt's place at the precinct

 have found it imperative to have sure and simple remedies hand in case of cuts, bruises, strains, sprains, colds, rheumatism, etc. Shortly after entering upon my pro
 fession. discovered such a remedy in All cocks Porous Plasters. tried Benson's Cap cine and other plasters, but found them too harsh and irritating. Allcock's Porous Plas
 ters give almost instantaneous relief, ,and their strengthening power is remarkable. In cases of weak back put two plasters on the small of the back, and in a short time you will be capable of quite severe exercise. In sprint" and 'fdistance" races and jumping, the mus cles or tendons in the legs and feet sometimes weaken. This invariably be relieved by cutting the plaster in narrow strips so as to give free motion, and applying on muscles affected. JAMES ROBINSON.
