MARSEILLES AND TOULON. Consul Mason's Report on the Situation The Status in Italy. Washington, Aug. 26. The State Department has received from Frank H. Mason. United States consul at Marseilles, a report dated July 31st, upon the situation at that place and Toulon, since the abatement of the cholera epidemic. He says : "It will be 2 or 3 months before danger of a new outbreak of the pestilence will be past and a much longer period must elapse before ordinary prosper itv of business can be restored. The finances of Toulon and Marseilles have been strained to the utmost in clearing their streets and tenements and caring for the sick and burying the dead. Many thousand of their wealthy and benevolent citizens are absent. A presentiment or impend ing financial nun weighs heavily upon the business community, and even the ordinary resources of chari ty are seriously curtailed. Subscrip tions have been raised in Marseilles and contributions sent from neigh boring towns to meet the most press ing and immediate needs, but ' the measures of relief have been meagre. The French government has, -within the past few days, sent a xxmmission of inquiry to measure the probable deficit, and a considerable sum has been voted for the relief of the strick en cities. - The - tide of ' returning fugitives has just set in, and no de scription can picture the wretched ness and destitution that already exists." The consul suggests that this is an occasion which offers to the traditional liberality of the-Amer ican people a ready and fitting oppor tunity. Chas. M. Wood: as deputy consul general at Rome, writes to the De partment of State, under date of Aug. 5th, that the cholera which ap peared in a small village in Piedmont near Turin and 'In the province of Genoa, gained but slight headway and is now under control, owing to quarantine precautions. The only railway now freely open into Italy is through the frontier station from Austria at Carmen's, between Trieste and Udine. - Since the date of these reports cholera has increased rapidly, ootn in Jb ranee ana in Italy.

When the inquest into character goes back of this, into the domain of man's eexual relations, it goes where the only certain thing is that innocent hearts will be filled with wretched ness, and that the truth of motive and of action must ultimately be left be tween the private conscience and its God, where Jesus Christ left it when he rebuked the crowd who pursued Mary Magdalene. It was on the money changers in the temple that N he used the whip. How the Cholera is Progressing. Paris, Aug. 26. The cholera is increasing m Corsica. Four deaths occurred near Ajaccis.

This Is the case with hundreds who have- been unwise enough to take Sarsaparllla, Potash mixtures, etc., until digestion is almost fatally impaired. Swift's Specific is a vegetable remedy, and restores the sys tem to health and builds up the waste made by these poisons. "I was suffering with Bljod Poison, and treated several months with 'Mercury and Poison, ojily w make me worse. The Potash toek away my. appe tite and gave me dyspepsia, and both gave me rheu matlsm. I then took Sarsaparllla, etc. All these Sarsaparllla mixtures have Potash in them. This made me still worse, as it drove the poison farther Into my system. A friend insisted I should take Swift's Speeiflcand it cured me of the Blood Poison, drove the Mercury and Potash out of my system, and to-day I am as well as I ever was." GEO. O.
