began By speaking Of the surplus Of $40,
600. 900 in the Treasury, and said that the
causes which took that money need lessly
from the pockets Of the people and the
channels Of trade TO the enfeeble-
ment Of every branch Of indus
try were continuing and produced
more aggravated results each successive
year. 1t was easy TO zee that unless the
causes were removed or greatly modified.
it was only question Of time when q
calamity, fatally involving all the indus
trial interests of the country must follow.
In view OF this emergency, 90 full Of
evil portent to the country, the President
had in wise aud bold message urgently
recommended such revision Of the tariff
and reduction Of duties on imports as would
reduce the revenues to the limit required
for the support Of the Government. In that
the President was simply voicing demand
that came from the people of the whole
country.
At the close Of Mr.. Coke's speech the
Senate resumed consideration of the bill "a
provide for the admission Of the State OF
South Dakota. The bill was discussed by
several of the Senators, after which the
Senate went into executive session and
adjourned.

OF EmbalmIng the Dead, Discovered by a
West virginian.
SPECIAL telegram 10 The Register.
WESTON, April ,12-About the 25th Of
January, q gray-haired old man, dressed in
jeans clothes, appeared in our midst and
registered at the Central Hotel, where he
has been boarding eight weeks. The OBJ
ject Of his mission, and long visit, is as
ecuhsr as it is interesting, and will no
doubt excite the interest Of the medical
fraternity, as we'll as the scientific world.
The REGISTER man interviewed Mr.. G. II.
Hamriek and cleaned from him the follow
ing history of his wonderful discovery
He began by stating that ne was native
of West Virginia and lived on farm near
Philppi. Continuing, he said, in his youth
he had desire to study medicine, and in
opposition to his parents, who treated the
matter lightly.
A few years ago he began expsrire enting
with tinctures, etc. Itwas not long, how
ever, until he discovered a preparation,
which he is now using successfully, to
preserve not only vegetation and animals,
but also human bodies. His first expert
euce was with eggs, which he preserved
one year ago, and to-day they are as fresh
as when preserved. He next tried beei
and chicken, in which he was also success
fnl. He then determined to try and pre-
serve something which died natural
death; consequently he hung cat, which
he embalmed, and it is to-day IS natural
as life.
His desire was to experiment on hu-
man body, and in order to accomplish his
purpose desired to place the matter before
eminent physicians in Philadelphia. He
therefore communicated with friend, who,
in reply, said, "If there is any glory in it
keep it it West Virginia" and at once
correspondence was opened up with
the proper authorities Of the Hospital for
the Insane, which resulted in inducing
him to come here. Arrangements were
soon made by which he was to get the
first corpse, and after an interval of three
weeks he began to experiment on two
coTpses He first embalmed them, and af-
ter the expiration of forty days, began the
process of drying by dry sir. After fifty
six 6ays the bodies are in good state Of
preservation and almost life-like. Some
portions have become petrifed, but still
retain their natural color, with the excep-
tion of the hands and feet, which are per-
fectly white. Mr.. Hamrick Is acting un
der the advice of Hon. Samuel Woods, who
is here looking after his Mr.. Hamrick's)
interests. He has filed a caveat in Wash
ington and intends taking out patent on
his process (the secret of which he guards
very closely as soon rs perfected.

NECESSITY OF TAX REDUCTION.
What the country needs 10 the immedi-

plus now lying idle in the Treasury, and
such reduction of the tariff and internal
revenue as will meet the demands of the
Government, and no more; this is plainly

In certain quarters that all efforts TO relieve

business Of the country the money which
we hold in the treasury through the per

things can and should be done with

The crisis is Believed to bs Passsd-Hcw the Dis
dnguishsd Patient Spent the Night-His
= Physicians Consider His Chances
Of Recovery Much Better.

NEW YORK, April l2.-The news from
Mr. Ccnkling's sick chamber this morning
was of most cheering character.
There is every reason to believe that the
dread crisis has passed.
Mr.. Conkling spent one Of the best
nights since his illness. The periodical at
tacks of delirium did not manifest them
selves at all during the night Thepatient
slept off and on, and there were few if
any symptoms of pain exhibited during
his sleep.
At about three O'Clock this morning ne
awoke and was given drink, when he
dozed off again, and up to half-psst eight
o'clock was still sleeping sounding. At
eight o'clock Judge Coke, who had just
left the house, announced the welcome in
telligence that Mr.. ConkliDg had slept well
all through the night. "He awoke at
about five minutes past three o'clock this
morning for a short time, but quickly
dozed off again, and left him sleeping
now."
DR.. Hartley left the house at 7:20
o'clock. He too had cheerful news. "Mr.
Conkling," said he, passed good night
and everything now looks promising"
At about half-past eight o'clock Mrs
Conkling was seen. There was marked
difference in her appearance since yesterday.
There was hope in the faithful wife's voice
and eve. She, too, had slept aud much the
haggard appearance had left her counte.
nance She said that DR.. Hartley had Just
informed her, before he left the house, that
her husband had passed one Of the most
comfortable nights since he has been i'll
She herself, she added, had only been
called once or twice during the night and
had enjoyed, like her husband, some re-
freshing sleep. She was overjoyed at the
favorable indications in the sick chamber.
DIR. Barker arrived at the house at 9:l0
q. M, and after being in the sick room
about an hour, issued the following bulle-
tin: There is very little change in the
patient, but what there is is for the bet
ter. He rested quietly the greater part of
the night. His pulse is SO and tempera-
ture SO. His respiration is %"
DR.. Sands dressed Mr.. COnkling's head
this morning and when he left the patient
was asleep.
DR.. Barker said to = reporter yesterday:
Goa Tuesday said the chances for Mr..
Conkliug's recovery were one in one hur-
dred Yesterday said they were one in
twenty-five, and to-day say they are one
in ten"
Shortly after II o'clock DR.. Barker re-
ported that Mr.. Conkling was asleep and
all his symptoms were favorable. Letters
and telegrams of sympathy from all parts
Of the country continue to pour in.
Drs Barker and Sands called at the
house at 9:10 and remained in consulta-
tion, until nearly 10. Then the doctors
left and DR.. Barker told the reporters
that Mr. COnkliDg was in splendid con-
