 City of Mexico, July 22.-The condi- tion of the peon laborer in southern Mexico is beginning to attract the at tention of philanthropic statesmen and of the more progressive part of the community. Ever since the Spaniards conquered this country a system of serfdom has prevailed here gradually fading out as the country became more settled in the central states, and now remaining mainly in the remoter re- gions, where labor is scarce and it is distinctly to the advantage of the planting class to keep the field hand in bondage Under this system, opposed to the fundamental principles of the Federal constitution, a peon once in debt to his master must work it out, and, if he dies in debt his descendants are held in servitude. One might think. especially if unacquainted with the practice on those remote planta- tions, that a peon could not possibly contract so large a debt as to reduce him to perpetual bondage, and email on his children the same loss of person. al liberty.

JONES AS 4 GoLDBUG.

Gold is the articulation of com merce It is the most potent agent of civilization. It is gold that has lifted the nations from barbarism. Gold has intervened in the bargains made be- tween men since the dawn of civiliza- tion, and it has never failed to faithful ly fulfill it's part as the universal agent and servant of mankind. am opposed to any proposition, come in whatever way it may, that attempts to override what God Himself has made for money!
 Who said this? Senator Jones, who Is now busily engaged in trying to mis- lead the people of this country and make them take a step back towards barbarisn. And the worst of it is that he knows better than to talk as he is now talking. He and Senator Stewart do not shine in the silver ranks. They have been too good goldbugs.

 Many who live and labor in this coun- try send 8 pars of what they earn to those whom they left behind them when they came to this country. During the last fiscal year the total amount of money sent to Great Britain through postal money orders was $4,671, 1875, rep resenting the remittances of 3SS, 1885 per- sons. To Germany there was forward ed through the same channels $2634,- 4s5; to Italy, $6O1, ,19s; to Norway, $4S7,- 655; to Sweden, s2O2,561; to Denmark, $lS4436, and to Austria, s527, ,699 When to this is added the amount transmitted in exchange or in currency, the total would make very large sum.
 If the free-silverites have their way those who send money to friends in ''the old country" will find that the money they send will not be as valua- ble as it has been There would be no gold in circulation in this country, and our currency would be silver and sil- yer certificates. These would have to be measured according to their value in exchange on London, Paris, Berlin or Vienna, and as the value of the sil- yer bullion in the dollar would deter mine it's value abroad, it would pos- sibly require nearly double the amount to buy the same exchange then which the dollar now purchases
 The free-silverites say that this coun- try is big enough to Ego it alone" in money matters. But 1t is not big enough to make the European countries take cheap silver money as gold, and so the thousands of people here who help their kinsmen abroad will find themselves and their kinsmen injured if free silver prevails.

 ''As regards the diet of the horses in warm weather would say, do not feed them too heavily. Coarse wheat and bran with oats Is the best food. Par ticular care should be taken not to feed corn in any shape whatever, either whole, cracked or ground. There have not been so many cases of overloaded horses as might be expected, which shows that people are becoming ac- quainted with the proper and humane treatment of horses There has been considerable fatality from inflamma- tion of the bowels"
 , What about dogs during this wealth. err asked the reporter; "a great many people seem to have a fear of them?"
 People need have no fear of dogs go- ing mad" the doctor said. Heat does not have any influence in producing ra- bies. This disease occurs more during the cooler months than during the warm weather, although neither heat nor cold has any influence in the causa- tion of this disease. I have not seen a case of rabies in four years, and ac- cording to the veterinary journals the disease has not been at all common in this country for the past three or four years. What I am going to say may seem funny, but 1t is true nevertheless, that fleas have bothered the dogs less this season than they have in former years. Dogs becoming overloaded or having vertigo or epileptic attacks may so simulate rabies that the laity may be easily mistaken, so that many times dogs suffering with the preceding troubles or diseases, are or have been destroyed unnecessarily or for mistak- en rabies" The doctor went on to de- scribe the various forms of the rabies, at the same time exhibiting a photo-i graph of canine which had had the disease. The lower jaws hung away down, the teeth were exposed, and in the eyes there appeared to be vicious look that would cause one to shudder. T don't have to look twice at a dog who has the rabies to be certain about it." said the veterinary.

Grey muslin is be- ing much used and a good many wo- men are protesting against the urging of tan instead of cool spring color that made the unbleached grass cloths so pretty at first.
