Fro oar Eeynlar Corre tfoadent. Your correspondent met (Jen. Grovenor, Representa tive from Ohio, yesterdav as he was roming out of the House after adjournment, and asked hitn where his sym pathies were in the .lap-Rus war. 'They are with Japan" be said "notwitbstaa-ling that she struck the first blow and struck it somewh'it be a a . W a a . m low me Pelt. But she'll get lickeq if hbe doesn't look out he added. ''Yoar.failh.tiofM not seem to follow your.sy.iri pntbies, General " I suggest d. "Well, thinin thf way that is," he explained: ''I ijon't t a a w Know wnerner ine japs are good fighting men. Anybody ran fight afloat, where there is not much danger, but to stand up and go. forward in the midst pf whistling bill lets and hurtling shells, is an other thingaltogetlipr. If the yellow men can stand up in Iront of white men, nnd fight them equally, man for man, that is, if a Japanese regi a.' .a ' III a mem, men tne japs win win and capture the whole Pacif ie seaboard. But that's the conundrum. This morning I dropped in to the War Department and called on Gen. GrHv, of An tic fame, nnd propounded to him the same question., "1 hope Japau will rome ont a- beat,'' he said, "but, I doubt fVIt is. very doubtful if t h e little brown men will stand np in front of the white men's rifles. They have nvpr pfov ed it. But we may be a little ast in assuming that the Russians are nil rminl to whitt mfn. A good many of them are of mixed blood of the tropics. Not more t han a hnndred millions are pur? Europeans and the Po'es, Jews and Fins can hflrd'v he counted on. Even if the Japs should conquer, they would not expect to hold even Man chnria. though they might seize Vladivosrock. But the Russians are ahead in the betting at the present mo ment, withontregnrd jo sym pathies." While the Agricultural bill was being discusson in the Senate it was apparent that he appropriations recom mended by the Honse would be largely increased, and the number of so called "divis ions" in that department were to be raised to the rank of "bureaus" with a cones- ponding growth of salaries or all the "chiefs," asnist anc "chiefs" and the nest of the big Indians. The mopqui to killing division is to be come a "bureau" if t h; House onsents; also th ornitholo gical or English sparrow a rH hen-bawk divii'n. whih is . TRAGEDY AVERTED. "Just in the nick of time our lit tle boy wae saved,'' writes Mrs. M. Watkins of Pleasant (7ty, Ohio, 'Pneumonia had plavei! nd havoc with him and a terrible cough hul set in besides. Doctors treated him. but he grew worse every dlt? . At ength we tried Dr. King's New Dis coverv'for consumption, and our dar ing was naved i.en now h'""I and well."

' now called a 'biological sur vey." Senator Nelson, of Min ne8otar says that this last di vision has nerer done any thing of practical impor tane to aghcnliureand nev er will. It is purely ornamen tal and frightfully "scientif ic." Senator Proctor, of the Vermont marlde yards, who knows as much about farm- ing as did the late Horace Greeley, has the bill in charge and whenever a Senator ob jct8rto an item he replied ia.ritt - a I ne secretary sain if was necessnr.v." Senator Bailey, of Texas, who is a very ob serving man. said if he had his way he would abolish the whole thing, free speih, bird- catching, horse training, mountain climbing, chrysan themum raising and all. The State agricultural colleges can look after the interests of farming in their respective states much better than a central establishment at Washington. Overcharging the govern ment for supplies and pocket ing the profit is likely to be dangerous business hereaf ter, in the light of the ver dict of guilty, which the jury in the postofflce fraud .a n d conspiracy case against Ma chen and his confederates. the Goffs and Lorenje, so promptly rendered on 26th ult., at the conclusion of the trial here. The conspirators have been admitted to bail in 120.000 each but if the tri al holds good it will, not he long before they will be be bind the bars a warning to all "grafters" wbo are in the employ of the government. Even Samuel Groff against whom the prose-ution admit ted thefe was not sufficient evidence to convict, was in cluded in the verdict, whi'.h is said to have fallen in the court room like a bolt from the nine. There will probably be an appeal to the higher vourt, .but.it may uot be al-IowmI. The.streets of Washington are made lively by thirty- eight carriages kept by the government for Its well paid employees. These are driven by mencariied on the rolls as watchmen, laborers and messengers. A private Secre tary, a. "chief" of a bureao, in a government coach, with a colored man on the box, is a sight to make one's mouth water. It is also a slfkieut commentary upon the Civil Service that such things can be. At the eleventh baur ex Sec rotary Root has explained the whole matter. To sum it up and boil it down he says: Colombia held the Isthmus ot Panama suJgVt tothecon yeniences of the world; and that Panama as a province. "owned" the isthmus, which it had never morally aliena ted, If this had only come be fore the debate in the Sf nate it would have saved much time." These two brand ,new doctt ines'of word convenience and moral alienation knock all the text books higher than Gil ro's celebrated kite. Those who watched the per sonal controversy in the Sen ate on Washington's birth day, between Senator Hoar, of Massachusetts, and Fora t ataa a a . Ker 01 unio, could not re gard it as either necessary, or uigninen. mere is roo much hot headed eagerness on the part of Senators, who should know better, to rut h to the rescue, full of words and fury , whenever I hey jm agine the Executive has been criticised. The policing of the White House is not t he spec ial province of the Senate and Senator bora ker need not put himself on the force. Each branch of the govern ment has only to look after its own affairs. There is a si lence .which , is becoming tu one's self respect, and the Sen ate is a good place to main tain it. Hitches regarding'the con struction of the great canal Lhave already, appeared. No money can be paid to Pana ma until t he spooner act is modified; a clear title to the property can hardly beclaim ed until the suit Colombia has brought ugainst the French canal company is de cided. A vast amount of ma chinery must be made before a shovel full of dirt can be moved MOBS RIOTS- Disturbances of strikes are not nearly an grave ng an individual dis order of the system.

There ig nothing so effi. cient to cure disorders of the liver or kidnevH aspect ic Bitters. It's a colds Cause pne&mon i a. une ot tne most 'remarkable cases of, cold, deep seated on the lungs, caueing pneumonia, is that of Mrs Gertrude E. Fenner, Marion, , Ind. who was entiren, cured lv the use of One Minute Cough Cure. She says: "The coughing and straining so weakened me that I ran down in weight from 148 to 92 pouuds. I tried a number of remedies to no a Vail until I used One Minute Cough I'ure. Four bottles of this wonder ful remedy c ired me entirely of the cough, strengthened my lungs ana resored me to my normal weight, bealtli and strength." Sold by M. B. Hlackburu.

In other words, the food that you eat mngt be digested, assimilated and appropriated by the nerves, blood and tissue before be fore being expelled from the intes tines.

I was in camp near Co lumbia, S. 0., on the night of the 14th of Nov. 1833, and we saw the great meteoric shower, the trrandeat thing I ever saw. My grandfather. E lias Powell, was a soldier in the British army; was one of Col. Ferguson's body guard at the battle of King's Monn tain; was by Fnrguson when he tell from his horse, nnd got permission of Col. Cleve land to bury him; and with theassistance of woman who went to Furguson, they- ear ried a body to a branch near by and buried it as best they could.
