there was a propriety IN extending a
welcome to the visitors in tue home OIL the
nations chief executive.
1--WE still profess" he continued, TO be
a Christian people. This means that no
public officer of high Or low degree should
be unmindful of the restraints OF religious
sentiment. 1t means that the rellgtous
teachings of our people should lead them
TO exact from those who make and execute
their laws a recognition Of these re-
straints 1t means that the rules which
the popular religious sense approves
should underlie the performance OF every
public duty. You, therefore, will, hope,
permit me TO say that though you do well
to insist upon a conscientious discharge OF
official obligations. and though you ought
never 10 shrink from the exposure OF
official shortcomings, the contribution
YOU owe towards plishing good gov
ernment will not be fully made unless you
reach the people by precept and example
that they will find their safety ana we'll
fare in enforcing upon their pubic ser
wants an observance of the mandates OF
Christianity and morality"

DANGER

If you have feeling of oppression and
uueasiness a little above the diaphragm,
and just below the right ribs, aggravated
10y lying on the right side, look out. As
sure as fate, your liver is disordered.
Perhaps not seriously as yet, but-fatal
hepatic assesses are not uncommon.
Hostetter's Stomach Bitters is the precise
remedy to regulate the liver, and prevent
its congestion and inflammation, and to dis
perse such minor indicia Of Its derange-
Inent as yellowness of the skin and bail OF
the eye, furred tongue, soUrness Of the
breath, nausea on rising IN the morning,
dizziness, sick headache aud constipation.
BY relaxing the bowels painlessiy, it
opens channel Of exit for the supertluOus
bile, checks u tendency TO congestion and
engagement of the liver, at the same
time giving a gentle impetus TO its secre-
tive action, and affords relief to the
stomach, which is usually inactive, out Of
order and oppressed with wind when the
bowels are 1ostiVe. Use the Bit5ers also
In fever and ague, rheumatism and kid
pey troubles

NEw-YoRK, May 19.-R. G. Dun & Co. g
Weekly Review of Trade says:
Stocks rally from the extreme depres-
sion, but business shows no substantial I'M
provement. The distribution of products
to final consumers is rather less en-
couraging, though the weather has been
generally more favorable aud aJ some
points helps the retail trade. Wholesale
business and speculation show each week
more hesitation with regard to crops next
fall, the possibilities of tariff changes aud
money uncertainties. Some large failures
and many Of minor importance show the
effects of the Increasing strngency in the
money markets, and, while money is COM
paratlvely easy here, the pressure at other
points has increased. Almost everywhere
collections are slow, and the doubt about
the future affects new undertakings, al!
though the present volume OF trade, based
upon past orders, is remarkably large.
The treasury is in stronger condition
than for some weeks past, but the exports
of gold have notably increased. The eX-
ports or products in April show n decrease
of more than SIS, 100000, while imports
have increased $500. 600; so that the ex-
cess of imports Tor the month is S24 3SS, AZ,
and for the four months of the current
exports have but slightly decreased, while
imports are Sc 200, eco greater than last
year. In such conditions il is not strange
That laage amount OF gold has gone
abroad this week and that s.. 250, coo has
been ordered for shipment today The
extraordinary bank failures in Australia
have caused much realizing on securities
and merchandise, the effects of which are
felt III the American markets. Neverthe-
less, stocks have been decidedly stronger,
with healthy American buying.
Wheat is l. 2 cents lower, with sales of
., ,0OO.000 bushels Corn is a cent and
oats = cent lower. Pork products are
slightly higher. Cotton is unchanged
wv hile the great Industries are we'll en-
ployed thus far, orders for the future are
growing more scanty The iron trade is
weaker, southern forced sales depressing
prices. There is no improvement in bar
iron, competition depresses plates, and
structural iron Is lower than ever
The failures of the week number 247 in
the United States, against 269 for the same
week last year. and fourteen i'll Canada,
against twenty-three last year.
