The Cure for Heart Neuralgia.

Angina pectoris (agony of the chest)
carries off many people, one of whom, ac-
cording to the NEWSPAPERS, was the novel
ist, the Rev. E. P. Roe, who expired in one
day because of its crushing anguish.
Major-General George B. Mcclellan, ac-
cording to the published reports of that
time, likewise succumbed after twenty -four
hours Of uncomfortable pain. Just how
these patients were treated am unable to
say, but Dr. Richardson, of London, long
before General McClellan's death, had re-
ceived prize of $4,000 francs from the
Academy of Medicine in Paris, for having
discovered an almost infallible remedy for
angina pectoris, by the administration in
small doses of 100 to LIS of grain of
nitro-glycerine. This discovery entities
DR.. Richardson to the never ending graft
tude of every suffering man, woman or
child afflicted with angina pectoris /
know number of persons who always
carry tablets of nitro-glycerine with them,
and | am equally certain that all these
people, by the use of nitro-glycerine, are
living in comparative comfort, who would
otherwise have fallen under the insupport-
able torture of that form of heart neuralgia,
the most dreadful Of all pains.-N. Y.

POSTPONED.


The dwelling of the Marshall Monument
VIII Take Place In May.
One of the grandest monuments ever
of James w. Marshall, the discoverer of
gold, over his grave at Coloma. The dis
covery OF gold in California is an epoch in
the history of our country, and advanced
the settling up of this Western country by
at least fifty years. At the last session of
the Legislature bill wasintroduced, passed
and became law, appropriating S., 600 for
the purpose of erecting monument TO
Marshall's memory. The bill stated that it
must be erected over his grave at Coloma.
The monument is completed. 1t was de-
signed and erected by J. Marion Wells, the
leading sculptor of the coast, and is a model
of beauty and historically appropriate. 1t

March. and all arrangements had been
made, but at a meeting of the Commits
sioners yesterday the matter was indefin-
itely postponed. The cause of the post
ponement is the prevalence of smallpox in
Placerville. There are several cases in
that city, and the people are so frightened
that it would be impossible to get out any
thing like a representation, and the ex-
cursion from this city would have to be
abandoned. The cases in Placerville have
been quarantined. and its spread is thought
to be checked. DR.. Tyrrell came down
from there yesterday. He SAYS the Cath
ollie priest has i, so bad that there is little
hope for his recovery. The ugliest feature
OF the whole business is that great many
were exposed before they knew the nature
of the disease.

BALLOT reform is in the air, and in some
places has alighted and been taken to the polit-
ical bosom. Massachusetts will see the Austria
Ian ballot law 60 into operation next fall, and
We hope that one of the like measures pending
before our Legislature may take its place on
our statute book The freedom of secret
ballot is quite as important as the purity of its
count. The stability of the republic depends
ultimately quite as much upon one as upon the
other A secret ballot by all means.-Bridgcport
(Corsa.) Standard.
But unless the legislators of California
act speedily and lift the measures out Of
the rut of routine, the ballot reform bills
We need in this State will not be enacted
into law, and for two years more the peo-
pie will be forced to endure the whips and
scorn of the vicious, and the ballot-box
manipulators. Ballot reform is in the air
in California quite as much as in Connec.
ticut, New York and Massachusetts, but
without responsive Legislature it cannot
take form and be fashioned into law. If
the Legislature leaves it where it found il,
so much the worse for the Legislators.

SOME post-prandial genius, under the
softening influence of wine and the good
nature inseparable from a full stomach
has proposed that the American people
adopt national flower, and not a few
journals have approved the idea. We see
neither virtue nor poetry in it. Where
national emblems of that character have
been adopted, it has been the result either
of monarchial within or the fact that some
one Towering plant, very much more than
another, prevailed in the fora of the
country. Now in the United States, SO
wide is our domain, so varied our soils and
climates, all manner of semi-tropie
plants and flowers of the temperate zones
are to be found, and there is no one flower
that bears any special relation, by reason OF
historic concern or native characteristics OF
traditional song, to our nationality. We
can. therefore, adopt no flower that we can
especially pre-empt as our own, even if ii
were desirable to do SO. The national
escutcheon has withstood a century with
its simple emblems, and the need of a
flower figure in its field has not been at all
felt by medalists, seal-cutters engrayers
artists, orators or the sentimental. Ireland
may keep its clover. Scotland its thistle
England her rose and France her lily
America has done we'll without national
flower upon her shield, and at the age O.
ll3 years is old enough to repress the sen
timent that might attach to our coat o
arms the flower the St. Louis Globe Demo
crat suggests as peculiarly American-th,
sunflower.

R EMIS1scENr OF WASHINGTON.

The RECORD UNION this morning pub
fishes upon its inside pages number of
Saiuabie papers upon the Inauguration of
George Washington as the first President
Of The United States. The papers published
are compilations of historical matter of pro-
'oundest interest. We are impressed with
The belief that there is not enough of such
reading among the people. The literature
of the earlier periods of the Government is
rich in matter of this kind. Historians
have uniformly confessed their ipcapacitv
to convey to readers al adequate idea of
the depth and intensity of the patriotic
feeling of the people in the infancy of the
Republic, and the lofty esteem in which
Washington and his colleagues were held
by the communities Of the United States.
It is therefore commendable TO incite the
youth of the day to more deliberate and ex.
hsustive reading of the details of early
activities in the Republic. The purpose of
the several papers published this morning
viii nave been attained if they awaken in
any considerable degree mere of interest in
the earlier annals of the American nation.
There approaches now the last OF cur great
centennials-the hundreath anniversary OF
Wsshingtou's inauguration. As the cere-
monies OF the occasion are to be fashioned
after the original. the articles we to-day
present viii serve TO much inform reader,
b. refreshing their recollection of ear
lier American historical study. We have
appended to the account of the inaugura-
ton some estimates OF Washington by a
few of MS contempt: aries. ana also a run
ming account of the first Presidents tour
through one section of the nation. There
also appears brief sketch of the receptions
held by the Presidents wife and the galaxy
of distinguished persons she gathered at
her levees. For the use Of engravings and
the privilege of extracting from copyright
text, the RECORD UNION is under obiiga-
tons to the editor OF the Magazine OF
American History Mrs. Martha ]. Lamb

IT is something at last to be proud of,
that we have one man of-war that is caus.
ing anxiety to European naval officials.
Our new dynamite boat, the Vesuvius,
they pronounce the fastest war ship afloat.
She Is also supposed to be the most formid-
able. But it is also true that her dynamite
Guns are too short in range, and lack ac-
curacy of aim. However, our gunners and
constructors agree that in these matters
great improvements can be made, and
though il is true the Vesuvius must, as now
armed, fight at closer quarters than is COM
Portable, yet she has such ability to show
an enemy clean pair of heels that no
great harm can come to her if the master
chooses 10 run after making an assault.
The pattern of the new boat is exciting such
anxiety among European officers we may
well conclude that in this vessel we have a
model for the most serviceable war ships
of modern times, and that, as in the cases
of the Monitors, we have given the science
of naval warfare another turn forward.
