The following remarkable letter from one of the lead- ing and best-known scientific writers of the present day is specially sixnificant, and should be of unusual vaiue to all readers who desire to keep Pace with the march of modern discoveries @nd evente: ‘*A general demand for reformation is one of the most distinctive characteristics of the nineteenth cen- tury. The common people, as well as the more enlight- ened and refined, ory out with mo uncertain voice to be emancipated from the slavery of conservatism and su- perstition which has held the masses in gross ignorance during a large portion of the world’s history, and in the time of the ‘Dark Ages’ came near obliterating the last ghmmer of truth. Dogmatic sssertions and blind empiricism are losing caste among ali classes of all countries. People are beginning to think for them- selves, and to regard authority much less than argument. Men and women ere no longer willing that a few individuals should dictate to them what must be their sentiments and opinions. They claim the right to solve for thentselves the great questions of the day, and demand that the general good of humanity shall be respected. As the result of this general awakening, we see, on every hand, unmis- takable evidences of reformatory action. People who, @ few years ago, endured suffering the most intense in the name of duty, now realize the utter foolishness of such ® course. Men who were under the bondage of bigoted advisors allowed thelr health to depart; suf- fered their constitutions to become underminded and finally died as martyrs to a false system of treatment. There are milliogs of people filling un- timely “raves who might have lived to @ green old ‘age had their original troubles been taken in time or Properly treated. There are thousands of people to-day, thonghtlessly enduring the first symptoms of some serious malady and without the slightest Tealization of the danger that is before them. They have occasional headaches; alsck of appetite one day ‘and a ravenous one the next, or an unaccountable feel- ing of weariness, eometimes accompanied by nauses and attribute all these troubtes to the old idea of “aslicht cold’ or malaria, It is hich time that peovie awoke to a knowledge of the seriousness of theve matters and emancipated themselves from the professional bigotry which controls them. When this is done, and when all classes of physicians become liberal enough to ex- clude all dogmas, sive that it is their duty to cure dis- ease ag quickly and as safely as possible; to maintain no other position than that of truth honestly ascertained, and to indorse and recommend any remedy that has been found useful, no matter what its origin, there will beno more quarreling amons the doctois, while there wili be great rejoicing throughout the world. “‘L am well aware of the censure that will be meted out to me for writing this letter, but I feel that I cannot be true to my honest convictions unless I extend a helping hand and endorse ull that I know to be good. ‘The extended publications for tho past few years, and sraphic «lescriptiona of different diseases of the kidneys and liver have awakened the medical profession to tho fact that these diseases aro greatly increasing. Tho treatment of the dociors has been largely experimental, nd many of their patients have died while they were casting about for a remedy to oure them. “It is now over two years since my attention was first called tothe use of a most wonderful preparation in the treatment of Pright’s disease of tho kidness. Patients had frequentiy asked mo about the remedy, and I had heard of remarkable cures effected by it, but lke many others I hesitated to re- commend its use, A personal friend of mine had been in poor health for some time and his application for insurance on his life had been reje:ted on account of Bright's disease. Chemical and microscopi-al exami- nations of his uritie revealed the presence of larze quan- tites of albumen and granuiar tube casta, which cor- firmed the correctness of the diasnosis. After trying al! the usual remedies, I directed him to use this prepa- ration and was greatly surprised to observe a decided iimprovement within a mouth, and withia four months no tube casta could be discovered. At that time there was present only a trace of allumen, and he felt, as he expressed it, ‘perfectiy well," and all through the {a- fluence of Warner's Safe Cure. the remedy he used. “After this I prescribed this medicine in full doses in both acute and chronic nephritis, (Bright's disease) and with the most satisfactory results. My observations Were neither small in numer nor hastily made. They extended over several months and embraced a large umber of cases which have proved so satisfactory to my mind, that I would earnestly urge upon my profes- sional brethren the importance of giving a fair and tient triaito Warner’s Safe Cure. In a large class of ailments where the blood is obviously in an unhealthy state, especially where giandular engorgements arid in- flammatory eruptions exist, indeed in many of those forms of chroni¢ ind:sposition in which there is no evi- dence of organic mischief, but where the general health is depleted, the face sallow, the urine colo:ed, coustitu- fang the condition in which the patient ia said to be “bil- ious,’ the advantaze gained by the use of this remedy isremarkable. In Bricht’s disease it seems to act asa Solvent of albumen: to soothe and heal the inflamed membranes; to wash out the epithelial debris which blocks up the tubuli uriniferi, and to prevent a destruc- tive metamorphosis of tissue. “‘elonving a8 I do to a branch of the profession that believes that no one school of medicine knows all the truth regarding the trea ment of di-eage, and being in- dependent enough to select any remedy that wil! reileve my patients, without reference to the source from whence it comes, Tam glad to acknowledge and com- mend the merits of this remedy thus frankly. Respectfuily yours, R. A. GUNN, M.D. Dean and Professor of Surgery, United States Medical Collee of New York; editor of M-dical Tribune; Au- thor of Gunn's New and Improved Hund-Book of Hy- giene and Domestic Medicine, etc., et.” — 1thK Faz Orvexrxe Day Goons?

Bi Tharver, of the ant!-moni league, continu: Derore the Senate sub-committee on labor and ed- ucation. In the last Congress Mr. Thurber asserted there were 264 lawyers, a majority of whom were re- tained. by corporations, or were directly or indl- rectly influenced by others in legislation in the interest of the tons. Senator Call thought witness was wrong in his statement and greatly misrepresented the standard of morality among public men. He did not be- lieve that there were ten men in coi who were retained by any corporations, and he did not know one, Senator Pugh acknowledged that there were & large number of legislators who were interested irectly or otherwise in corporations. He was not of the opinion, however, that, although this was the case. the personal action of ‘the legislator was not influenced in legislation. NOT BVEN A FREE PASS. Senator Blair remarked that be did not own a share of stock in any railroad corforation, nor had he received a single tree pass from a railroad since he had been In j ublic lire, Mr. Thurber explained that he dia not mean that these legistators, whom he had mentioned directly, promoted legislation In the interest of corporations, but that whenever there Was a con~ flict of interest between corporitions and the peo- ple they would have a tendency to take the side of ne foriner. Senator Call asked witness to mention some specific result of this tendency, and Mr. Thurber elted the opposition of the railroad transporta- tion bill of Congressman Reagan, and the diMeulty which had been met with in giving ita hearing and having tt properly discuss Senator Cail replied that there might be other reasons than the one mentioned for opposing the bill. As for himself, he did not think the measure ‘Was a feasible one in all respects. ees President Arthur to Dom Pedro.

PAILURES OF THE WEEK. New York, Sept. 21.—R. G. Dun & Co., of the mercantile agency, report that notwithstanding the fact that ‘tran3actions, as interpreted by the bank exchanges, show a large decline ascom- Pared with Jast year, all the symptoms regarding trade point to a prosperous conilition. Speculation certainly 1s les rampant than a year ago, but le- gitimate trade ts almost as large in volume and certainly more satisfactory, boih as to the condi- ton of stocks held and profits realized. ‘The large absorption of goods at the chief jobbing cenwrs indicates a healthy tone in the Tetall trade throughout the _ country. Collections generally are good and money con- tinues In abundant supply, and rates for loans are exceptionally low for this season, when so much money {s required for the moving of the crops. In Gry goods there has been a greit deal of activity of a very healthy character, and, as In groceries, tron and other leading staples, there is in the main satisfactory condition. In cotton there has been some fractional advances, showing that the bull element fs in the ascendancy, and the prices close higher and steady. There 1s a firm movement in Spot cotton, sellers generally securing the advance. Advices from the crop still remain unfavorable, ahd the movement of new cotton shows uo great Increase. The grain markets continue to decline. In rice prices are well sustained,with only moderate supplies offering. ‘Th market for raw sugar 1s Strong, with prices still slizhily advancing. The failures throughout the country are nuinerous, numbering for the United States and Canada 188, as compared with 173 last week. ——— The National Liberal League.
