We have more than once alluded to
,eculiarity in the gold movements of the
present year which appears to US most
SIGNIFICANT. namely, the unusual proper
ion of the import from the non-produc-
ing countries. This is. We believe, an
upmistakable sign of the exhaustion Of
the stocks of gold throughout the world,
and corroborates the evidence OF exhaust
ion furnished by other facts, such as the
monetary panic in South America. The
whole subject has now become so i'm
nortant that we think it will be useful to
extract in full from the Board Of Trade
returns for last month the account of
our gold imports for eight months Of the
present year, as compared with the cor

Pneumonia is an Inflammation of the

the fever is OF the diathesis termed in

diathesiS TO which the term typhoid is
applied. In either case the chief trouble
and danger wholly consists (aside from

They are so congested with accumulated
blood that breathing is laborious. the
cough severe and distressing, and the ex-
pectoralion difficult. The fever may be
mild-or violent. But in all eases the es.
sential point in the treatmsn! is to relieve
the overloaded vessels OF the lungs.
This is to he done, not by taking the
blood out, nor blislcring the skin, nor

determining the circulation from. the
lungs to other parts of the body, and
freeing the whole mass of blood of It's

can be accomplished 10y balancing the
temperature steadily at or near the nor.

sometimes in few hours, and in the

In his letter to the Bishop of Ken
lucky, DIR. Cummins announces that he
has "severed the relations" which he
has sustained with the Bishop and do
cese of the church in Kentucky, and
that, therefore, 81 leave the communion
in which L have labored in the sacred
ministry for over twenty-eight years,
and transfer my work and office to an
other sphere of labor" From this it
appears that DIR. Cummins proposes to
continue the office and exercise the func-
tions of q Bishop of the Protestant Epis-
copal Church; but he intends to do so
outside of that church. He knows per-
fectly well that the canons of the church
provide for his deposition from the Office
OF Bishop but he evidently is prepared
to maintain his Office without any regard
to the future action the church may take
IN his case. In other words, DIR. Cum
minis proposes to be Bishop of a new
church-and, for the present, sole
Bishop. He has marked oUt for him
self policy toward the Protestant
Episcopal Church the same as that
adopted in Germany by DIR. Reinkens,
who is sole Bishop of the Old Catholics.


Bishop Cummins gives as one of his
reasons for his proceeding that he seeks
a larger and more tolerant situation.
where he can exercise the right and
privilege to meet his fellow Christians
of other churches around the COM
munion table and, as another reason,
his inability to participate in the SER
wees of his own church with those who
incline to ritualism.

The Postmaster General again urges the

for wherever the telegraph is under Govern

facilities The telegraph should be made

prasers to value lines, property and effects OF
the companies now in operation, and as the

When the train draws up at STAN
ford, Connecticut, with FIVE minutes for
refreshments, il is easy to distinguish
the experienced traveller from the rest.
He has already got out on the plat
form, and is either on the bottom step,
or close enough to it. Just as soon as
the speed OF the train becomes les than
lie can make, he springs off, and dashes
msdly for the saloon door, through it
ard up to the connter, giving his or
der Tor coffee while moving, and snatch.
ing up the right article the first time.
He knows just how much time is re-
ouired to make FIVE minutes, and when
it is expired he is out on the platform,
picking his teeth and talking about
real estate. Alas ! for the inexperienc-
ed traveller, such is not his record. he
is inside the car when it stope, with
twenty persons ahead Of him. He
jumps down on the platform in time TO
see the mass surging into the door, and
then it suddenly strikes him that he
may be too late. and under this
inspiration he throws himself into the
struggling gang. He doesn't reach the
table. He and the other inexperienced
travellers form the outside line, and
shout their orders through the openings,
and receive what is handed them with
thankfulness aud what dexterity they
can muster. Such q man will perspire
and choke, and paw and jaw during the
