The following extract from speech
delivered y Senator Anthony, and
quoted by Senator Hawley in his eulo-
gy on his life and character, would
seem to have a somewhat contempora-
neOus interest ga paper that cannot
support itself cannot be of any service
to a party to depend upon it is like
leaning upon a man who cannot stand
up; to spend money upon it is like
wasting fuel in an attempt to kindle a
stone. The day when such papers
were read has passed and the day has
long since arrived when a paper to be
of service to a party must first estab-
lish a value to the public. 1t must &C
quire character for the reliability of
its facts, and the candor of its argu-
ments; it must have the public conf
dence before it can affect public opin-
ion ; it must be in considerable de-
gree independent of party before par
ty can derive any great value from its
servic es."

Concerning Hydrophobia.
Burdette.


A physician has recently printed an
article entitled, elbow to Tell a Mad
Dog and How to Treat HydrophObia."
Now, that seems to us a very simple
matter. You should never have any
thing on your mind that you want to
tell a mad dog. We can tell mad
dog anything we have to communicate
on postal card, or we could send
him the information by rabid tele-
graph messenger, the young man who
makes everybody mad with whom he
comes in contact, but never gets mad
himself. In diagnosing case of hy
drOphobia, dog with wire muzzle is
the most sensitive subject, but any dog
will answer. To see if he is mad, pull
with both hands. If the dog jerks
away and runs bowling down the
street, he is not mad. He is only scar
ed. But if he turns around and bites
Il piece out of your leg, and tiles to
bite out another larger piece before he
swallows the first one, he is mad. Then
lowe tho treatment or hydrOphObia.
This peculiar form of madness Origi-
mated with the camel. The camel, you
know, can go forty days without
water. In treating the hydrophobia,
offer it anything but water. Hydro
phObia in the North is the same thing
as snake bite in Texas. 1t is be-
lieved by the best physicians that by
drOphobia RACES as fearfully in the
winter as in the summer. What a
wise providence is this! because when
the snow is on the ground all the
snakes are dormant, and the thirstiest
man in America could not even bite
himself at the Geological garden. Hy
drophobia is contagious. One man
who has it can communicate it to a
whole crowd of men. 1t is not always
nor necessarily fatal, although the next
morning the victim usually wishes that
it chad Of heann

REYIKW OF TRADE
BY Il. @. Dun & Co.-The Metal and Wooden
Markets.


NRw YoRK, Jan. 13.-R. G. Dan & Co.,
In their weekly review OF trade. gay:
With perhaps a little more than the
usual dullness for the frat half Of Janu-
sry, business still progresses without
monetary pressure or unusual embarrass'
ment from the failure Of collections in any
part Of the country. While failures st
some points are numerous, tho aggregate
Is lees than for the corresponding week
last year, and complaint Of collections Is
much less frequent than a month
ago. Within 80 or 60 days
payments on large fall purchases
will be required. Gnd some
increase in failures would not be surprtB-
ing. But the new year opens with lcss
embarrassment from that or other causes
than was reasonably apprehended. SpeCu'
lative markets are generally dull, which ia
not bad symptom for legitimate trade.
Industries are somewhat disturbed by
strikes and legislative or business uncer.
tsinties. Shortness OF supply and high
prices disturb manufacturers at many
points, and 1t may prove unfortunate for
northern iron producera that they are Just

some furnaces to hold prices firmly when
southern makers are affecting contracts at
$40 for No. l, ard $l6 for mill iron, In
rails there is no change; sales Of bar at
81 80 at Philadelphia show weakness,
while the nail market Is sitter at S2 05.
The unusual prosperity OF cotton manu-.
iacturers with lair prices and we'll sus.
tanned demand has led to demands for
higher wages for spinners, which threaten
TO end in serious strike.
The wooden business shows no definite
improvement, but It Is encouraging TO
find that though last years book wac most
unsatisfactory, the production Ia estimated
at some Of the chief centres only 10 per
cent less than that Of 1856, with decline
OF 10 to 10 per cent during the year in
average prices. Other industries are pro-
gressing satisfactorily and in lead tho pro,

as against 279 last week, and 323 for the
corresponding week in 1887.

several thousand. dollars. The robbery
was discovered by a clerk who went to
open the store this morning. He found
the front door had been forced open, and
the gas, which had been LETT burning last
night, was extinguished. Inside was q
scene Of confusion. The safe door ley in
the middle of the floor, and with the ex-
ception OF small box containing few
rings, pins, ETC., the entire contents OF the
safe were missing. A wrench and two
chisels left by the burglars were found in
the street There is, RS yet, no clew 10 the
thief. A high wind and rain storm pre-
vailed here last night, and this probably
prevented the explosion being heard.
