'Weakness of the Btomach" Is the source of more
evils than were contained In Pandora's box. Debility,
beadaehe, nervous tremors, palpitation of the heart
and local pains Innumerable are I'a direct conse
quences, It obscures the Intellect and gives birth to
the most absurd and Incoherent fancies; Incapacitates
ft man for business, and renders persistent exertion
next to Impossible. Yet. strange to say, indigestion is
the most neglected of all ailments. And this Is the mora
xtraordlnary from the fact that an absolute, Infalli
ble specific for the disorder can ba obtained in every
City, town, and Tillage of the Ualted States,
Hostitteb's Etomacii Bittkbs takes as wide a
range as the malady which Itcu-es. It pervades every
civilized portion of the Western Hemisphere, and Its
celebrity as a tonic and alterative Is everywhere esta
blished. It Is due to the common sense of the Ameri
can public to say that the demand for It Is Immense,
and continually on the increase: but still thousands
, continue to suffer from dyspepsia, with the great fact
staring them In the face that a remedy for it exists, as
It were, within arm's length of every sufferer. Such
Is the Inconsistency of human nature I Day by day,
However, the lumber of those who manifest this In
sane Indifference to their own health and comfort
diminishes; and the time will come, It Is confidently
believed, when the disease win be expelled from the
category of prevalent disorders by this Incomparable
alfratlve and restorative.
Booneb ob Z.ATBB, a neglect of cold will develop a
Constant cough, shortness of breath, falling strength,
find wasting of flesh the avant-courlers of consump
tion. In some Instances the same causb will produce
bronchitis, a disease ol the branches ef the windpipe
In all affections of the pulmonary organs, as well as
In bronchial complaints, Jayne's Expectorant Is bo'.h
B palliative and a curative, as the testimony of thou
sands, and Its world-wide reputation attests while
In coughs and colds It acts speedily, and when
taken according to directions, promj-.ly removes
them. Why not give this standard remedy an Imme
diate trial? Bold by all druggists.

She Chinese Government having through Vie Hon

lege of connecting the great seaports of the Empire by

ing operations in China, and laying down a line of 900

These ports have a lorelgn commerce or 1900 oeo.OuO
aud an enormous domestic trade, besides which we
have tbe Immense luternal commerce of the Empire,
radiating Irom these points, through Its canals and
cavigable rivers
The cable being laid, this company propose erecting
land llncw and establishing a speedy and trustworthy
means of communication, which must command
there, as everywhere else, the communications ofthe
Government, of business, and of social life, especially
In China. She has no postal system, and her only
means now of communicating Information Is by
courier on land, and by steamers on water.
The Western World kniws that China is alvery
largeceuntry, in the main densely peopled; bit few
yet realize that Bhe contains more than a third of the
hum an race. Tbe latest returns made to her central
authorities for taxing purposes, by the local magli
trates. make her population Iur Hundred and Iiur.
teen Millions, and tLIs Is more likely to be nnder than
over tbe actual aggregate. Nearly all of these who'
are over ten years old not only can, but do read and
write. Her civilization Is peculiar, but her literature
Is as extensive as that of Europe. China Is a land of
teachers and traders; and the latter are exceedingly
quick to avail llemselves of every proll'ered facility
for procuring early Information. It Is observed la
California that tbe Cblneie make great use of the
telegraph, though It there trarsmlts messages In En
glish alone To-day, great numbers of fleet steamers
are owned by Chinese merchants, and used by them
exclusively for the transmission of early Intelligence,
ir the telegraph wepropose, connecting all their great
seaports, were now In existence, it Is believed that
Its business would pay Its cost within the first two
yearB of Its successful operation, and would steadily
increase thereafter.
No enterprise commends Itself as In a greater de
gree remunerative to capitalists, and to our whole
people. It Is of vast national Importance commer
cially, politically, and evangelically.

THE EABNLNUH OF THE CNIOX PACIFIC
KA1LBOAD, lrom Its M ay or Local Business only
dorlrgthe J ear ending June 80, 1868, amounted to
ver FOUR MILLION DOLLARS, .
Which alter paying all expenses was muoh mora
than sufllclent to pay the Interest npon Its Bonds.
These earnings are no Indication of the vast turongb
tsHfllo that must follow tbe opening of the line to the
Pacific, but they ceitalnly prove that
FIR&T MORTGAGE BONDS
Upon 'such a pioperty costing nearly three time
tatir amount,
ARE ENTIRELY. SECURE.
Tbe Union Psclflo Bonds run thirty years, are for
1080 each, and have coupons attached. They bear
annual Interest, payable on the first days of January
and July, at tbe Company's office In the City of .New
York, at the rate of six per cent. In gold. The prlnol
pal Is payable In gold at maturity. The price 4s 10
and at the present rate ol gold, they pay a. liberal
Income on their cost.
A very Important consideration In determining tha
valae of tbebe bonds is the length of time they have (4
run.
It Is well k nown that a long bond al wayscommandg
a much higher price than a short one. Ills safe ta
assume that during the next thirty years, Uie rate o
Interest In the United States will decline as It has
done In Europe, and we have a right to expect tha
such six per cent, securities as these will beheld at as
high a premium as those of this Government, which
in 18&7 were bought lu at from 20 to 23 per cent, above
par. The export demand alone may produce this re
sult, and as the Issue of a private oosporatlon, they
are beyond the reach of political action.
The Company believe that their Bonds, at tbe pre
sent rate, are tbe cheapest security la tbe market, an 4
tbe right to advance tbe price at any time Is reserved.
