MEXICAN PROGRESS.
Items showing the Progress of
 Our Neighboring Country.
TSo Rcpul lics.)

The Mexican Consul at Genoa reports that of 6.492 emigrants from Italy during last December, only "A started for Mexico. At this rate, it will take a long time to make the addition of Italian emigrants felt in this country. The value of merchandise imported into Mexico from the United States during 1890 was greater than that of the proceeding year. The total amount for last year is given at S7 ,SSS ,4S6, which is SlO6,633 in excess of 1889. One of the most important items is machinery, large proportion Of which is for steam and the value is placed at sl,l54 ,532 and agricultu- ral implements are stated at S603 ,09T 1; The sewing machines brought to Mexico are valued at $2l4,93S. The greater part of this importation was over the railways, which connect di- rectly with American lines, and most of the articles classed as machinery do not pay any import duties.
 While the Intercontinentsl Rail- way scheme is being leisurely discussed in Washington by the Pan American delegates, Mexico is quietly but surely building her part of it, and in two or three years hence, steel rails will connect the Rio Grande with the frontier of Guatemala.
 In Mexico there are thirty-eight custom houses on the gulf, one on the Guatemala frontier, fifteen on the Pacific coast and thirteen on the frontier of the United States. Mata- moras was nt one time a large com mercisl port, but American railroads to the upper border towns have deprived it of the greater bulk of it's trade, although the country around is settled up and the soil is exception ally fertile.
 Of the ports on the Pacific coast, Mazatlan is the most impOrtan' having d population of l4OOO and being the distributing point for the greater part of Sinaloa. The Mexican naval bureau of the Pacific l. located at this point. and also A branch ol the Mexican Signal Service. The custom house returns show a constantly better development, especially on the border between the United States and Mexico.
 Banking business fourishes in Mexico. T, manager of the Bank of London and Mexico advertises tha the dividend on shares for the year | 1890 is twenty per cent, and the bank Is ready 10 pay it. This ia on the bisi of hard silver dollar tinanciering; no cedulas or other inflated currency. Mexico rejects all h.se and holds fast 10 her dollar.
 The cities of Mazatlan and Culiacan the former the chief port and the lat ter the capital of the state of Sinaloa appear to be fourishing, il we may judge from the revenues Of their res pective municipalities. Mazatlan has a population of something less than 1000 and its revenue for 1890 is esti mated at s23OOO0. Cuiiacan has a little over II 900 inhabitants, and its revenue is put at s7O.OOo. This is money enough to make both those cities the envy of many larger city; and this gives an index to the prosper | ity of the state of SinalOa.

HE electrical instrument recently in-
 vented for avoiding the pain incident to | the extraction of teeth has attracted
 considerable attention. Briefly, it con-
 sists of adjustable prongs, carrying buttons and connected with an electrical
 battery. The buttons are placed on the | face over the nerves leading from the
 teeth to the brain, and a circuit is estab- lished the moment the extracting in | strument touches the tooth. NUMBER of Philadelphia physicians and surgeons have organized an electro
 therapeutic society for the discussion of questions of electricity combined with
 medicine and surgery. The main object
 of the society is to reduce the amount
 of empiricism with which the practice
 of electro-therapeutics has hitherto
 frequently been associated, and to in- duce regularly certified practitioners to
 take up the subject on a scentific basis.
 IN tests on a number of different per sons, an electrician has found the effect i've resistance of the human body to be less to the alternating than to the direct current in the same individual with a great variation in the resistance to either current in different persons. In five subjects the resistance to a continuous current of 50 volts ranged from 3,320 to 10000. The tests revealed incidentally a striking difference in the strength of current different individuals can endure.
 SOME wonderful work has lately been done in the removal of diseased parts of the human body by electrolysis Dr. Abrath, who has paid special attention 70 this branch of surgery, states that he has removed tumors and cancers with ease by electricity where no surgical interference with the knife was possi- ble, cases which have baffied all medical and surgical treatment, including liui- ments or injections. Grown-up people who had been under hospital treatment and dismissed as incu.able have thus escaped the horrors of suffocation or other miserable deaths. These he has had photographed in their perfectly ] cured state after electrical treatment. He not only finds that the electric cur rent will kill the cancer cell beyond ! where the knife can go, but that hem orrhage and shock are more or less pre- ( vented with the use of electrolysis and I scepticemia or py@mis, which SO often | follows removal with the knife, is nearly always avoided.

Get Possession Before Adjusting

Mr.. Henry Watterson, who is now
lecturing in Texas, in recent inter-
view is reported to have said among
other things:
"For Gods sake, let us let it a,one, aud
try and elect our ticket in 1892. If we
do not carry the country then, you may
look for the Force Bill and every thing
else that bodies evil. Elect Democratic
President and Congress, and sectionalism
is dead forever in this country, and that
is what we want, to kill out sectionalism.
Once in possession of this Government
and we Will deal with silver and all other
questions so honestly, SO broadly, so pa
triotically, that we shall challenge the
Judgment of the masses, and, in the
providence of God, we shall rule this
country wisely and we'll"
There is profound wisdom in the
above utterance that should commend
itself to every Democrat in the land,
warning that cannot safely be neg
lected, one that should alarm the
wanderers into the delusory paths Of
the b-Treasury in Mississippi; an
appeal which should arouse the old
Democratic spirit in every quarter; a
promise of success and pointing to
the way for success which should be
encouraging.
If Democracy fail in gettingposses
sion of the Government in '92, with
the chances for success now held, we
may look forward to innumerable evils
and expressions, which neither third
party schemes, sub-Treasury reliefs
nor appeals to the constitution can
overthrow. He is no Democrat and
unworthy to bear the name who will
desert the ranks upon any pretext at
any time, but more especially now,
when the victory can be won if every
man Will stand ny the c0lors under
which he has enlisted and marched SO
long.
The farmers Of Mississippi, like the
farmers all over the Union, have suf-
fered under Republican domination and
misrule, just as all other classes in the
community, except the manufacturing
monopolists and great moneyed trusts,
so that it is to the interest of all to
unite as Democrats and destroy the
monster, and after this, as Mr.. Wat
terson says, we will deal with all
questions honestly, broadly and patri-
otically.-[ Natchez Democrat
