PERRY, AUG. 17, 1893: Washington Letter. {From Our Regular Cbrréspondent.) ~The politico-social ball has begun. | the pulse of the National Capital --throbs again With its wonted vitality. Con, In session means a great deal to Washington. This time ft menus the opening up of the poli- ftical antl legislative machivery at least three thonths earlier than usual and with * the probabilities that brce it is set iil motion it will contioue to oper- ate until the roses bloom again. With the presets of the government's official heads and most of those folks whose personality and hospitality ns- sist in making the Capital one of the most unique and interesting cities in the world there is no good reason why that undeniable pcwer commonly call- ed "society " should not also haven a big inning. It will have much to do, for political asperities must be Sempered, and there are clouds that fieed to be brightly lined, "Tt can be stated on the authority of the greatest travelers that so far as physical effort Se Savage, David A. illigme, Sarina it i ible to st -- William Boynton ( cs), Mary is impossib e tos rike Sma FL y ) y 3 1 honors in English, ompson : ~ 'Paris, Aug. 15.--To the Hon.

How long will it take to doit? These are the most important questions asked in financial circles, but of course they remain unanswered, and so long as that dubious condition remains there is but little chance for a material im- provement of the situation, There are two things n_large proportion of the people of this country want Congress to do. First, something that will re- store confidence in our eurrency.-- Second, sowething that will help bring avout international bimetallism, There are various opinions about the Sher tan law, and there are also differences of opinion as to removing the tax on State banks. These two subjects are are firebrands which may keep Con- gress talking for months while the in- dustries of the country are suffering. Why not leave them for discussion at a later time, and let Congress enact now a law declaring that it is the set tled policy of this country to keep every dollar as good as every other dollar, and #nstructing the President to sell gold Londs in order to mske this policy effective. Such a declara- tion, followed by the sale of twenty- five millions of bonds, would restore confidence, and would go a long way towards bringing about an interna tional bimetallic agreement. But the President should have authority to sell five millions of bonds if he should thiuk it necessary, The objection that the sale of bonds will increase our in- terest account should not have weigh. It is absolutely as nothing, compared to the vital importance of doing some- thing to start up the wheels of indus. try and make trade possible. We are losing more every day than the inter- handred million Londs na year. Let Con- 1 in a decisive manner 'Ro restore confidence in all classes of the country's currency. There is excellent authority for the statement that Mr. Cleveland will send a special message to Congress at its extra session in regard to the Hawaiian question. Preparations to that end have been completed at the State De- partment, It is learned that Minister Blount regards the situation as ex- tremely critical, and he has advised prompt action on behalf of this govern- ment as the only way of avoiding seri- ous trouble on the islands. He says that the people are chafing over the delay on the part of this government to act on their appeal for annexation, and are beginning to feel that they are being trifled with. The friends of ex-President Harri gon in Washington are displeased at the announcement which has been widely circulated declaring that a secret organization of clube had been formed to re-enter him for the Presi dental race in 1896, which was placard- ing the State of Indiana under the direction of Gen. L. T. Michener. Gen 'Michener says he is not connected with the scheme. 'The next presidental wlection is a long way off,' he remarked. #No one can tell whether the conditions which would lead toa demand for Gen. Hurrison's renomination will exist in 1806. Should there be a movement to bring him to the front again it will not come through the medium of a secret society. No one knows or can proph what may be the political sitoation in 1896. Tt is stated in the Treasury Depart. ment that there is no likeliliood of the resumption of gold certificates until the free gold stands from reven to ten millions above the reserve.

A game at Lacrosse between DBrad- ford and Port Perry clubs was played on the Olympic grounds in this place on Friday last. Bradford put up a very strong team but the result as far as the game had progressed before stopped by a heavy shower proved the Port team was every way worthy of crossing sticks with the wisiting team. The first game, during which the best Lacrosse playing was witnessed, ever performed in this locality, lasted 7 minutes and 30 seconds, when Holliday scored for the home team. After 14 minutes and 50 seconds play, during which honors were equally divided, the second game was brought to a close by a heavy shower of rain.

Brooklin, Out., Aug. 14.--Two and a half miles east of Brooklin at 7 o'clock this morning occurred a very sad accident, causing the death of Mr. Henry Doolittle, an old resident and influential farmer, Immediately after breakfast Mr. Doolittle and two of his sons hitched a team of horses to a self- raking reaper to go to the field to cut clover, and, as the horses were young, the two sous took the precaution of each taking a horse Ly the bridle, and Mr. Doolittle sat on the seat with the lines in his hands. The horses went kindly at the starting of the rakes, but as soon as the knives were get in motion they made a sudden plunge and kept plunging and jumping with the two young men at their heads, and in their efforts to get away they made a circle, | Tickets for the World's Fuie at Single coming around near rr -f ay "be olitdined © Mr. W.

There was largely attended meeting of the creditors of the estate of W. 8, Black in Bution's block, this town, on the 31st ult. The meeting was called by the trus- tes, A. T. Button, Eeq., to receive his re- port and to instruct him as to the disposal of the balance of the assets, Juines Watt wis called to the chair and F. N. Raines, who is one of the Iuspectors of the estats, was *peinied to act ns secretary. The other Inspector, J. A. McGillivray, was un- ableto be present. At the meeting hd divectly alter the assignment Ww. 8. Black the Inspectors reported that posstidy 40 per cetit. might be realized, but as the balanos of the assets including those held by the Ontarlo Bank although about $26,000 are not very valuable, it was stated by the trustee that it was unlikely that a further dividend than the 10 per cent. already paid would be available for the creditors. The total amount of claims filed reach nearly £37,000 and the amount due the Ontario Bank has exceeded $40,000. Both of these amounts are faf in excess of the accounts of the indebtedness available by the Iuspect- ors at the time of the first meeting, and also the notes in the hands of the trustee were almost wor $hless, leaving little besides the real estate from which the 10 per cent. was paid. An fection had béen comnnenced hy the estate against the Ontario Bank to eom- pel them to deliver over the balavce of the | promissory notes in their hands and to com- pel them to reduce their claim for interest and on other grounds. An offer for settle. ment was made by the Ontario Bank to band over the balance of notes in their hands, relinquish $165 of their claim and pay their costs of the action, On motion the creditcrs instructed the trustee to ac- cept this offer, On motion the creditors also instructed the trustee to sell by public auction the remaining assets of the estate. The nominal value of the assets held by the Outario Bank, principally in the form of promissory notes, is over $10, The creditors seem to be perfectly satisfid that Mr. Button has made the very best lof a deplorably unsatisfactory cstate.-- Uxbridge Times. » -- ALL MEN Young, old or middle aged, who find them- selves, nernous, weak and exhausted, who are broken down from exccas or overwork resulting in many of the following symptom Mental S corenion. premature ol d age, I of vitality, loss of memory, had dreams, dimnees of fit palpitation of the heart emissions, I of energy, pain in the kid- pegs, headaches, pimples on the face and body, itching SF pesuliar sensation about the scrotum, was of the organs, .dizzincss, specks before the twitching of the muscles, eyelids and elsewhere, bashfulness, deposits in the urine, loss of will power, tenderness of the scalp and e, weak ani flabby muscles, desire to sleep, failare to be rested by sleep, constipation, dullness of hearing, loss ps voice, desire for solitude, ex- citability of temper, sunken ey¢s, strrotnd- ed with LEADKN CIRCEES, look Yond i coteentiee. who through abuse committed in ignorance, may be cured.
