on the clearness with which he had
handled so abstruse and ponderous
subject, and, regretting that he had
not continued for another hour and.
a-half, at least, urged him to lecture
again.
This DR.. Oberg could not promise,
as he had only agreed to deliver this
lecture at the urgent request of some
OF his friends and patients; but a
committee composed of Messrs.
Roberts, P. NJ. Bruner, Orville Young,
E. E. Richards, and Puraam was ap-
pointed to confer with DR.. Oberg on
the subject.
General Roberts suggested that,
in case DR.. Obcrg consented to de-
liver the lecture, the District Court
room could be used for the purpose
free Of charge. There could be nc
legal objection to this, as the lecture
would be for the benefit of the pub
lie.
Mr.. Young kindly offered the use
of the parlor Of the Merchants
Hotel.
Finally, the whole subject.matte

Mr.. Michael Long, Jr., with Stro

with terrible itching and painful
sares on my neck, arms, hands and
fingers. No physician could help
me. S. S. S. relieved me perfectly,

Says the New O.leans Picayune:
"rhe Swift Specific is renowned for
its wonderful cures of blood poison
ing. If this medicine could only cure
local sore, it would not be worthy
of name, but to eradicate from the
blood all impuri,y, even that which is
hereditary, makes it what is claimed
for it--a boon to mankind"
The City Marshal of Iuka, Miss :,
writes: My sen had suffered for the
past six years with an eruption on his
legs, caused from poison oak, and
cracking of the feet. Nothing seem

"Three years ago | was poisoned with

Grace Gr.enrood.. Democracy.

There are few women who can put a
truth more forcibly or clearly than Grace
Greenwood. Being asked, q few DAYS
since whether she had found foreign girls
superior to the American girl, the, bril-
liant authoress responded: Such ques
tions as that are fired at me, point blank,
almost every day. Think Of these ques
tions-aA Of which have been asked OF
me: DO you still, after all the mon
archical splendors you have seen, believe
in a republican government Did not
the grand procession OF royalties at the
queens jubilee stagger your democracy
DO you approve, as you once did, of our
free institutions, and feel proud OF the
privileges We grant to women and the
Difference we pay them? How do you
like America now. after seeing SO much oil
Europe and its government
"Such questions are little better than in
suits. might as well be asked plainly
if, after mingling little in conservative
and aristocratic foreign society, l had
turned snob, after the custom Of consuls
and the manner of ministers; or if l was
ready to stultify myself by opposing the
higher education and the political rights
of women. If the hest of earthly friends
the one dearest and most revered, wer.
living. should hardly be surprised to be
questioned by some one: After an nc
quaintance with the English mamma, the
French mere and the Italian madra, what
do you think of your mothers IL is
very evident from this forcible reply that
America has at least one among its famous
and brilliant women whose republican
principles foreign travel and associations
have not changed.-William j. Box il,

Documents Of Historical Interest.

The archives of the government are
kept in the library Of the department OF
state, and constitute a vast collection OF
precious documents. There are q great
many of historical interest. The frat
draft of the Declaration Of Independence
and of the federal constitution are here
preserved. Washington's commission as
commander-in- chief Of the American
army, and host os documents pertaining
to the revolution and the early days OF
the government are to be seen. The let
ters and papers of Washington, Jefferson,
Madison and Mouroe and some OF the
other presidents are preserved in large
volumes, many ot the manuscripts ap-
pearing as clean and distinct as if writ
ten yesterday. Autograph letters from
kings and QUEEN princes. statesmen and
historical personageS who have fiourished
during the past 100 years are to be found
in these collections. Here are the origi-
nal copies of all the laws enacted by con-
gress, and of all the treaties made by the
United States with foreign nations, from
the first. with France. 17IS, and the sec
ond, with England-the treaty of peace.
bearing the date Of Sept. 3, 17SS-down to
those of recent years.
One treaty with Turkey is gorgeously
embellshed with golden letters, but the
most unique treaty in the collection is one
with Japan, which is, contained in q costly
lacquered case covered with silk The
quaint japanese characters, covering
many pages Of fine paper, are clearly and
boldly portrayed. The royal signstqre
appears at the top, AID you read from she
bottom. The treaty was brought TO
Washington by two officers Of high rank,
who were charged with its safe. delivery
on peril of their lives. One day they tri-
umphantly marched into the department
of state bearing aloft on bamboo poles q
quaerly constructed box, in which was
the important document. Glad indeed
were they to have escaped the disastrous
chances of land and sea, and when the
royal agreement finally passed into the
hands of the secretary of state they ap-
peared greatly relieved, for their heads
were no longer in Observation-Disclosures

precious stones, and just now are said TO be
cornering rubies. The finest rubies come
from Burmah, and the Burmese ruby mines
are among the richest spoils OF the British

are, according to report, strong enough to
corner the new supply, being allowed special
facilities by reason of their financial hold on

The member of the REPUBLIC staff who
wrote the article to which Mr.. Lee refers,
feels it something Of duty and decidedly
privilege to set the young man right in
several points where he misconceives. The
little flights Of i'll temper and italics In the
communication are simply misdirected
pleasantries, for which Mr.. Lee is probably
by this time sorry. Ill humor is always
wretched taste. and whoever loses his tenn
per in an argument also loses the argu-
ment
Ii the communication contained no more
point than its bOyish tone of resentments,
1t would not be replied to. Its merit of
notice lies elsewhere, namely: That Mr..
Lee seems to fancy the REPUBLIc's refer
ence to "a new theology" referred to the
second coming OF Christ. This is not what
was intended. Belief i'm the second CON-
ing of Christ is fully concurred in by
the best theologisnsy II is q point not
now at active % isspeg But If Mr..
Lee had thought moment, he might
have seen that the REPUBLICS reference to
"a new theology" did not allude to Christ's
second coming, but to Mr.. Lees remarkable
apd somewhat spectacular balloOn-hke plan
OF sslyStien and resurrection Through the

lsrly unconvinced that DIR. SpurgeOn,
DR.. Baldwin or any of the other
eminent divines outside of the some
what ill-tempereds young gentleman
who subscribed himself above, ever advo-
Gated any such remarkable theory Of gem

1t is patronage for g paper or re-
porter to al'ude to q man as "cOnsclen-
