,,< Mischievous Malaria. 2"To say that malaria is mischicvens is to put it very mildly, Itis all that and more. , It is cunning, deceitful, treacherous, sly, and underhanded. 1t does its work in the dark, and in such a sly way that much of the mis- chief is done before it is discovered. It saps the foundations of a health system, It robstheblood of ts vital- ity, demoralizes the liver, confounds the stomach, and makes the victim wish he were ini his grave. Itissad tosee peoplesit down in their misery, content to be the victims of mischiey- ous malaria, and thinking that noth- ing can be done for them. The power of BROWN's IRON BITTERS over the mischiefs of malaria has been so am- ply proved that there is no reason wa anybody who can procure a bottle of this Prince of Tonics shall suffer. Great is the power of malaria, and great are its (Yisaslrons effects, But greater far is the beneficent in- fluence of BRown's IRON BITTERS, ‘The preparation of iron in this favor- ite family remedy can be taken without ruining the teeth or produc. ing constipation and headache. 3 VETEBLEICS TIE CURE OF ALL DISEASES OF REES,C ] IEP, DOGS, HOG monsa AT, & ONTIENTY YEARS Themphreyi' Homeos B AR AL o A ?nrmm, Stoek Wreeiers Fartmen: H and Mennge With porfect siie Humphreys' #ent freo by mall on recelpt of price, [ 't free on applic TEOPATHIC ) 109 Fulton Street, New York, NERVOUS DEBILITY H“MPHRBB " Vital Weakness and Pros. rhe.

Doc., No. 2,8¢ ond session, forty-seventh congrass,which is the leter of the acting secretary of the senate to the senate, covering the expen- ses of that body from November 4, 1881, to June 30, 1882, you will find on pages 99 and 100 some curious items of expense incurred by the deputy sergeant at-arr g of thesenate whiie accompanying se na- tors to Cleavland to attend the funer al of the late Presidont James A. Go.rfield, Also the funeral of the late A. E. Burn- sido. The first item that will s'arike you is on page 98, and has refererice to the trip to Cleveland, 1t is as foilows: ‘Ho- tel bills and meals en route, 8646.80." The next,on the same page,is,‘Silk scarfs, made in Oleveland, §166." We ere not told how many were made, nor are weo told how many persons were fed for that 8646.80. On page 99 you will find one item of expense amounting to $303,60-~for ‘hotel billsin Now York and Providence and meals, $303.50.' How many persoss were fed on this occasion we are not told. This item was part of the expense of the Burnside funeral. On the same page (99), notwithetanding 8156 had been paid for scarfs in Cloveland, we find the following as part of the expense of the ox-president’s funeral: *For 18 white silk scarfs at #0, $162, a total of $308.50." But take a look st the follow- ing foed bill: ‘For meals and luncheon furnished members of the army of the Cumberland, Metropolitan police, Capitol police and special force on duty during the funeral ceremonies of the late presid- ent Septemb 1, 22 and 23, 1881, at tho capitul, 3765.50. Two moro items and I will let you off,” said the stateman. On same pago (100) you will find this item: For boef, hams, sirloin ateaks, chops, butter and bread, furnished hotol car used by United States senators in ac- companying the remains of the Iate pres- ident to Cleveland, Ohio, $72. The other item is for the use and hauling of 1,313 chairs for use at the capitol during the funeral ceremonies at the capitol, $288,66.” Comment is unnecessary further than to say no business man in the world would for a moment tolerate such wanton and uncalled for extrava- gance, nor would any business man pay such bills unless they were itemized in a more satisfactory way.” Another stateman who was standing by, said: ‘‘I have been looking into this matter. Look on page 57 of the report of the clerk of the house to the second seasion, Forty-seventh congress, and you will find the following: For the funeral of Hon.

The fish commissioner of Iowa makes the following suggestions respecting the construction of ponds. For astill-water wintering pond, the deeper a portion of it is the better, 1f there be plenty of mud on the bottom of the ponds, in which the carp can bury themselves during the period of hyberna- tion or winter sleep, a depth of five feet might answer and bring them safely. But a greater depth would please much better, If spring water can be run steadi- ly into the ponds during the winter, epth is of much less consequence. In draining Fom‘h great care should be taken to have it done slowiy, so that the fish md‘rmt be too much frightened to gather in the deeper portiors. They are likely bary themselves the mud of any part of the bottom when they take a sudden alarm, and might be left there to smother and die. The location and form of ponds should be such as to add to the beauty of the surreandings and to the convenience and plassure of the owners, Th.{nuy be needed to supply ice, or if stock be kept they may be useful as & reservoir supply water. Of eourse these points are to be settled by those who plan them, and their importance should not be over- can be kept and fed, and Carp B, el ponds % e e s quite in of water during the & ,mmor that would not he safe from free sing during the win- ter.

Prruapeirim, (Special.) — The Press publishes a review from advance sheets of the second volume of Thurlow Weed’s momoirs, a book which is destined to ex- cite much curiosity and controversy. It is edited by Thurlow Weed Barnes, and deals with the political history of the United States between 1860 and 1865, when Weed was New York's greatest political manager. Some of his letters now published for the first time allude to the nomination of Lincoln at Chicago in 1860, and the betrayal of Mr. Seward, ‘‘the logical, and as everybody suspected, the inevitable republican candidate.” Seward's defeat, says Mr. Weed, was owing at least to a misunderstanding be- tween the candidate and Mr. Cameron. In a letter to Thurlow Weed a few months before the famous convention Soward wrote as follows, speaking of Cameron: I promised him when he left Washing- ton to spend a day or so with him on my way home. Ho took me to his house, told me all was right, he was for me, and Pennsylvania would be. It might hap pen that they would cast the first ballot for him, but he was not in, ete. He brought the whole legislature of both partien to see me, feasted them glorious- ly, and they were in the main so generous a3 to ombarrass me Yours faithfully, WiLriam H, SEWARD, Another letter, written six weeks be- fore the convention, was even more pointed: Dear WeEp: Mr. Cameron claims all the delegates in Philadelphia but one. He says ho wants to see you, and will meet you here or at Philadelphia at any time you may suggest. He said he would write you 8o, but 1t seemed well enough for mo to tell you. You know all about Mr. Carl Schurzand the important and the responsible part he is acting in the republican cause. Please give him your confidence. 1 wonder continually how you get through such labors and bear up under such responsibilities, Yours faithfully, WiLniam H, SEWARD. Continuing the story of the canvass down to the second ballot, says the me- moir: After the second ballat had been taken, but before the result was announced, Gov, Reeder, or Pennsylvania, took the floor and said that while the voting was going on Gen. Cameron had withdrawn his name. He now formally withdrew the name of Simon Cameron as a candi- date for nomination. Forty-eight votes from the state ot Pennsylvania were then thrown for Mr. Lincoln, and the clerk 9 | announced the rosult, Mr, Seward stood within forty-eight and a half votes of the nomination, but the sudden rise in Mr. Lincoln’s vote, caused by the transfer to him of the votes from Pennsylvania, which on the first ballot had been cast for Gen. Cameron, suddenly brought into the field a formidable opposition candidate. Other influences were at work in the same di- rection, but the change in the vote of Pennsylvania, startling the vast auditori- um like a clap of thunder, turned the scale. On the next ballot the vote in detail stood as follows, when Mr. Carter of Ohio, announced the change of four votes in that delogation to the leading candidate, thus nominating Mr. Lincoln, who received 2313 votes, Seward 180, and Chase 24, After his election, in one of his confidential letters to Weed, Pre- sident Lincoln said as to the matter of dispensing patronage: “‘It perhaps will surprise you to learn that I have infor- mation that ycu claim to have my author- ity to arrange that matter in New York. 1 do not believe you have so claimed, but still some men say so. On that subject you know all I have said to you is ‘Justice to all,’ and I have said nothing more particular to any one. I say this to reassure you that 1 have not changed my position. In the hope, however, that you will not use my name in the matter, I am yours truly, A, LiNoony.” A more remarkable letter from Lincoln to Weed follows: “ExecurivE MANsIoN, WASHINGTON, D. C.,, March 156, 1865.—Dear Mn, Weep: Eyery one likes a compliment, Thank you for yours on my little ratifica- tion speech, ahd on the recent inaugural addrer I expect the latter to wear as well, perhaps better, than anything I have produced, but I believe it is not im- mediately popular, Men aro not flatter- ed by being shown that there has been a difference of purpose between the Al- mighty and them. To deny it, however, this case, is to deny that there is a God Huvnrniug the world. It is a truth which I thought needed to be told, and, a8 whatever of humiliation there is in it falls most dicectly on myself, I thought others might afford for me to tell it. Truly yours, A, Lixcown.” A month later Lincoln was dead. Five years later when Gen, Lee died Thurlow Weed was asked to preside at a public moeting held in honor of his memory, In a peremptory declination Weed said to the committee that invited him: *‘If the object of your meeting had been to honor the memory of that Gen, Lee who, until the year 1861, was distinguished alike for his high personal and wilitary character and for devotion to his country, I should osteem it & privilege to unite with you, but the strongest foelings awakened in me by the death of Gen, Lee are those of profound sorrow that an early and brilliant military record should have been blotted out by “a subsequent inglorious career. 1 cannot, therefore, lunmpn'.e with those who desire to honor the memory of the commander-in- chief of the rebel army—an army that struck at the life of the bost government in the world, e — Angostura Bitters is a_household word all over the world.

The number is largely increased every yoar. Plants aro here from noarly every country on the globe,” “‘What are they used for?” ““The white house is decorated every day with from 250 to 300 planta—flower- ing, tropical, and foliage. For wstate, cabinet, and public dinners and recep- tions the decorations are more elaborate, I am new preparing for the cabinet din. ner next ‘Ve!Hm\ndny;” and the plant ex- pert showed The Enquirer several huge mounds of cut flowers, whose fragrance will tickle the noses of the statesmen at King Arthur’s next round-table chat. “Kyery room is decorated excopt tho east room, and that was not until the public, who are admitted without restriction from 10 until 3 o'clock daily, began to steal the plants and even the pots—for mementoes, I suppose,”’ and the gardner looked disgusted. ““What days can the public visit the conservatory?’ **Any day except Sunday., When the gardeners are not busy decorating the white house, every courtesy is shown visitors.” “How are the conscrvatory and flower- houses heated?” “By hot water, furnished from seven heaters. From 150 to 200 tons of coal are used every winter. Some of the tropical plants require artificial heat in the summer.” “‘How many men are employed?” ‘“Eleven. One head gardener,at $1,400; one assistant, at $75 a month; four gar- deners, at $60; two laborers, at $45, and throe at $1.26 a day. We do all the work of the white grounda.” ““‘How much money is required annu- ally for all purposes?” **For the past four years §5,5600 have been appropriated annually. ~ Out of the apprepriation comes my salary and the money required for new plants, pots, baskets, seods, necessary ropairs, coal for heating purposes, and keeping the grounds in order. The sum has been sufficient for the ordinary expenses, but now new stages of iron and slate are required to replace the present. pine ones, which are rotten from the constant watering of the plants. The concrete paving is also rot- ten and worn out, and should at once be replaced with marble and terra cotta tile. It is now so sloppy as to be unfit for a lady to walk on. The water also soaks through it, and there is danger of serious loss.” ‘‘How many buildings are used for the planta?” ‘“Seven. One is the conservatory proper, two are rose houses, two for ca- mellias, one grapery, and one propagat ing house.” ‘““How much money will be required for the necessary repairs?” **Five thousand dollars, in addition to the usual apprepriation of $6,500, will provide for everything. The buildings and contents are worth at least $50,000, and the government should not, from false economy, endanger its valuable proporty.” “‘Pleaso show The Enquirer some of the rare plants.” “‘There, on the top stage,” said the botanical gentleman, pointing to & mod- est-looking shrub with delicate green leaves, ‘“‘is the Holy Ghost plant (peris- teria Alata), from Panama. The flower, as you can see, is creamy white and cup- shaped, and contains for its petals a-dove with outspread wings, hovering over a chalice. The plant is sacred to the na- tives, who consider it sacrilegious to luck its flowers. Here is the nun plant Bletia Thankervilla), or, as some call it, the Holy Ghost plant’s sister. The flower, when opened, disclosed a nun, dressed in her usual costume, hood and all.

As the tide re- coded, however, the water esonped, and it gradually assumed a more naturally appearance. Its dimensions were then ascertained to be: Length 40 feet from the snout to the tail; estimated girth at the thickest part, 23 feet; length of side fins, 3 feet; measurement across from tip to tip of the fins, 36 feet; breadth of tail from tip to tip, 17 feet 4 inches, It is calculated that the bludder of the whale is about 8 inches thick. As the animal lies on its back the nature of the injuries inflicted on it by the harpoons and lances of the Dundee whalers can not be ascertained. When landed the whale was taken possession of by the const guard officers on behalf of the gov- ernment, but on its being shown that the animal had been picked up on the high seas it was subsequent handed back to its captors. e —— Hood's Sarsaparilla 18 made of rootst herbs and barks, It gives tono to tho tomach and makes the weak strong.
