The Cincinnati Commercial Gazette de-
clares that, after all, we have no reason to
reproach ourselves about the decline of our
merchant marine, because for hundred
years our whole attention has been given
to conquering the land to the uses of COM
merce subduing the great West with rail-
ways and linking the two shores of the
continent. 1t believes, now that the land
conquest is fairly over, that the irrepressi-
BILE Yankee nation will turn its attention
to the seas, and that before very long we
will be able to count as many bottoms
afoat as England has, and the starry flag
leading trade as much as does the cross of
St. George. In all which speculations our
contemporary moves upon plane of truth,
with gush of patriotic enthusiasm of the
hopeful kind. But we must be about the
new order of things speedily. There is no
| time to waste over doctrines of the right
of foreigners to come and share with us.
The new policy must be distinctively that
Of the American flag and American COM
merce. And while we look toward the
sea, we must look to it that alien aided
competition does not snatch from us some
of the victories Of the land conquest. We
may regret internal development, rather
than rejoice over our achievements, if we
do not jealousy and fearlessly guard the
avenues through which foreign influences
are seeking to gain control of our inland
commerce between the two great oceans.

Chairman Jones Makes Another Address
to the American People.
WASHINGTON, July 10Th. = Chairman
Jones, of the National Greenkack Party
Committee, issued the following tonight,
in reply to many inquiries from many
prohibitionists, female suffragists, and
representatives of other sentimental and
semi political organizations, asking ad-
mission to, or what action will be taken by
the coming Green back Convention on
these questions and doctrines:
There IS almost unanimous opinion
among the National Greenbackers that the
Convention to be held at Cincinnati, Sep
TENDER 18th, should confine its declarations
of principles to the questions of restored
fraternity and the spirit of true American
nationality among the entire people in OPP
position to the dangerous sectionalism of
solid North and solid South. The
payment of public debts according
to the original contracts under
which they were issued. To discuss
trusts, Boards of Trade, and gambling in and
making prices for American farm produces.
The English control over the volume OF
our money, English capital manufacturing
or handling the products of American la
Dor, and to such other questions as affect
the material interests and welfare of the
American people and free government.
Swapping horses while crossing swollen
streams has always been regarded as I'M
wise, and fusion with any party faction or
undertaking to change the name of our
party to catch outside votes has heretofore
always proven failure"
He then goes fully into the ereenback
theory, and the dangers it would avert, and
10 conclusion requests none to attend the
convention unless in harmony with them.

A WORD OF CAUTION.

N this as in every other locality where it is
known, there are hundreds who are taking
joys Vegetable sarsaparilla, and in nine
cases out of every ten it is effccting specific
cures. But word comes to us occasionally OF
people who report that it operates too freely
upon the bowels. We want to say to those
that they are not following the printed in
structions and are taking too much of it. If
1t acts too freely reduce the dose, never tax
ing any more than causes easy and perfect
action Keep this in mind and take it reg
ularly Tor while and do not indulge in too
much greasy food, and we viii have your
testimonial within fortnight. II taken un-
der these conditions it is an absolute cure for
indigestion, dyspepsia, sick headaches, con
stlpauon, face eruptions and liver and kid
ney disorders 1t may be asked how it can
possibly cure so many ailments. But the
reason is clear All those troubles are the
legitimate result of improper liver and kid
ney action or impaired digestive organs. It's
ehects upon these functions are as astonish
ing TO the medical fraternity as to the thou
sands who are daily taking it.

KcsUTH is splendid example of the
real patriot. He is now nearly 80 years of
age, and has been an exile from his native
land for more than full third of CEN
fury. but he mas not lost hope; for him the
signal fires Of liberty still burn, and the
love of country is as vital within him as
when he first faced the enemies of free
speech. In recent letter the old patriot
writes to friead concerning the hope of
representative government in Hungary
"This is not death. 1t is only sleep, and,
though the sleep has lasted good while,
the awakening viii! come soon. Ged grant
that sleep comes not again. Sursum cordd
lift up your hearts"

1T is inexplicable that in the matter of
the Pan-American Congress to assemble in
Washington within two months from this
time, neither Brazil nor Mexico have sig
nified an intention to take part Can it
be that English and German influences
have been at work to prevent action by
those Governments ? Both countries have
heavy commerce with England, and
Mexico has scarcely less with Germany.
The merchants OF Brazil and our next door
neighbor are largely indebted to the mer-
chants of Europe, and it is Just possible
therefore, that this fact may account for
the failure of these American States to
agree with us.

IT is not generally known that the late
Congress appropriated $250000 to afford
all workmen on the Panama Canal who are
American citizens free transportation to
their hemes. 1t was thoughtful act, and
proves that our Congressman are not wholly
absorbed in contemplating the political
pot. Thus far only about $4,000 Of the
sum has been called for, proving that the
conditions are not 50 bad upon the 18TH
mus as we had been led to believe A
good many of our workmen, however, went
to Chile, that Government offering subsist-
ence and free transportation, in order to
obtain three thousand laborers.
