Secret nrv Proctor, who has been for some month's gjving eurnest consideration to the ame lioration of the condition of the Apaches who have been held as prisoners of war since Geronimo and his bnnd surrendered to Central Miles, to-dny submitted his conclusions to the President in two al ternative suggestions. One the pur chase of the tract of land in the moun tainous region of western North Caroli na, or one of the adjacent States. The other that the consent of congress be rcrjiiested for their transfer to some ihiiiu m tne inainn territory pro posing if such a transfer lie authorized to locate them at Port Sill temnornri v. with a view to their final settlement on the Kiowa. Comanche and Apuche res ervation if satisfactory negotiations can tie consummated with these confederated tribe. The latter suggestion has the npprovul of the Secretary of Vrir,and he recommends its adoption, '.'hit is in hnrmonv with the views of Major Generul Crook and Lieutenant Guv Hownrd. who, under the instructions of the Secre tary of Wnr, have recently visited the Apache prisoners at Mount crnon bar racks, where they have been held in cus tody and who report as follows: "The band now numbers 4(10.

Thirty ol these men only are able bodied ; 2.1 are able to do more or less work, and the rest are old oi crippled. Not all of them were hostilcs. someoi them hnve been in the armv as scouts, in which thev rendered valtinbli and loyal service, ilanishincnt and im prisonment have been their reward. Those iudiuns have had all the desire for war taken out of them, and now onK desire time in some locality where thev can find a more healthful climate and learn the ways of white men."

Some alarm exists in New York lest typhus fever, one of the most fatal and malignant of all diseases, should have been scattered through the land by the passengers of a German emigrant ship which reached port December 6. A few deaths occurred before and after arrival, but the passengers meanwhile scattered over the country.

MISCELLANEOUS. J. S. GRANT) Ph. G., Of Philadelphia College, of Pharmacy, Apothecary, a South Main St. TTie Old Year baa drawn to a close, and with tht beginning of the New Year we wish to thank the public for their patronage and recognition of our efforts to do our full duty. We are fully con scious that it is to them that we owe the unexpected success of the past year, in which our business has been more than doubled, and we can only regard it as a new evidence that our business maxims ate such aa to cause our customers to have confidence in us and attract those who are cautious in dealing with any Pharmacist until they have become fully assured of the nature and extent of bis business principles. In out dealing with the public we realize thut the most scru pulous care and honesty arc paramount in importance. If these are virtues in all ordinary business transactions, they become sacred duties in Pharmacy, and without them no one can be a true Phar macist. The health, maybe the Hie, or those dealing with the Apothecary de pends upon them. We consider it our moat sacred duty to shun adulterations and spoiled as well as inferior drugs. They constitute an evil from which Phar macy suffers no less than the public. The evil is not a new one, inaugurated in late years; it has existed as long as there were men whose cupidity was stronger than their sense of justice, and it will doubtless continue as long aa there may oe men with conceptions of business so vague that they expect to purchase gold for the money value of dross. There are no other moral principles required for transacting a Pharmaceutical business than are necessary for any other business. Unwavering integrity that remains unin fluenced by the visions of gold along the road of questionable or deceitful prac tices is the only foundation for success that is worthy the name; it is so in every pursuit, and more particularly in Pharmacy, where as a matter of neces sity it must be combined with constant vigilance in all directions, so as t secure all possible safeguards. These are the principles which we have endeavored to live up to, and to which we trust our increasing success Is due. We hope our former pattona will show the same kindness towaid us in the fu ture that they have in the past, knowing that no action of ours will ever make them regret a continuance ol their fa vors. Yours truly. J. S. GKANT.Pb. 0., Pharmacist, 2 S. Main St., Asheville, N. C.
