The New York ttraW Washington writer
vouches for the following: BQZ
(IfllciiLl Information received from Ixnidon
onnnrmH inv despatch of two days aao to tho
ffect that Secretary Fish had demanded of
England an explanation regarding tho seizure
and condemnation of tho brig Mary Powell.
There Is no doubt whatever of tho fact that
such a demaud has been plnccd before tho Eng
lish Premier: but at the same time it should bo
stated that no fears urfl entertained in
official circles here that uny new
cause of trouble between tho Govern
ments will arise therefrom. It is nnderMood
here that the English Government agree with
mr own in resrardimr the conduct of the Snail
lards in this matter as completely indefensible,
and fnrthcr, that it has already requested an ex
planation of the whole proceeding. In vindica
tion of Its own honor and dignity, should Spain
refuse to furnish an explanation to England,
there is reason to believe that the latter will
firmly insist upon the surrender of tho brig Mary
Powell. Whatever may be tho sympathy of
England for tho Spaniards in their struggle to
preserve Cuba in their possession, she will not
suffer a flagrant violation of international law to
pass unexplained and unsatisfied. It is said Mr.
Fish has assurances from Minister Johnson that
utens have already been taken by England look
ing to the surrender of the brig in question. Ou
the other baud n, is stated ou goon aiunoriiy
that this poitit being settled England will do all
In her power, without openly declaring herself
ou the side of Spain, to aid the latter eoiuitry in
keeping the rebellious Cubans in subjection. It
la even asserted that a secret understanding
lias already been entered into on tho
part of England and France to scud
a powerful fleet to tho West Indies to
assist in preventing supplies from reaching tho
Cubans, and thus enabling Spain to htarvo out
her rebellious subjects. The two statements seem
hardly recoucilable.but I give them us they reach
me, without vouching for their truthfulness. If
England really has uny such dangerous de
sigus, it Is not easy to explain why she should
express herself so rcadv to pick a quarrel with
Hpain about tho Mary" Lowell affair. Certainly
Brother Jonathan will be quite as likely to
fight about English und Freuch iuterl'ercuco
with Cuba as about tho seizure of a little
liUle brig in English waters. Further, if
Spain had assurance of Ehtflinh and French
support, she would hardly yield so promptly to
the late demands of Secretary Fish. Some of
Ihe diplomatic folks here declare that notwitll-
Btandine: all the t'k Rrj0llt pnuiilshprldo and th I
miwsMblllty, ol effecting a bargain for
the sale of Cub . th0 Irovlslonal Government in

London, April S.I. The Ixmdon Postiri to-day

editorial article on the Cuban question, in which
it mentions that it in ansertcd that President
Oant lias a longing eye upon Cuba and would
not be unwilling to detract tho attention of the
people of the I'uitcd States from watching the
courts of internal affairs by a war with some
foreign power. A conflict with Spain
cannot leave odv doubt rc-pccting the
ifsne, unless England and France whould inter
fere. A blow dealt at Cubit would be tanta
mount to a blow dealt towards the whole of the
Wei-t Indies, and the acquisition of Cuba might
be followed bv that of Jamaica and Martinique.
The same paper quotes the recent acquisitions of
territory by the United States as a proof that It
wants to acquire by piecemeal all the possessions
held hy European powers In that latitude, and
would naturally commence w ith Cuba, because it
belongs to the weakest of the powers-having
settlements' in the AVest Indies. . France and
England will doubtless detenniue whether these
designs against Cuba will be tolerated, or aid
Spain iu retaining her colony.
The French press has agitated the question
much in the same tenor, and special meetings of
the French Cabinet were held on Tuesday and
Wednesday, which resulted in a special envoy
being sent last night to London with despatches

LIVER O O XVXFL AXXTT,
ATTD DYSrUrOIA,
If talien according to the directions. They ara
all three to be taken at the sarrie time. Thoy
cleans the stomach, relax the liver, and put it
to work; then the appetite becomes good; tho
food digests and makes good blood; the patient
begins to grow in flesh; tho diseased matter
ripens in the lungs, and the patient outgrows
the disease aud gets well. This is the only way
to cure Consumption.
To these three medicines Dr. J. II. SCITENCK,
of rhiladclphia, owes his
UNMVALLED SUCCESS
In the treatment of Pulmonary Consumption.
The Pulmonic Syrup ripens the morbid matter
in the lungs, nature throws it oil by un tywy ex
pectoration, for wheu the phlegm or matter is
ripe, a slight cough will throw it off, and the
patient has rest, aud the lungs begin to heal.
To do this, the Seaweed Tonic and Mandrake
Tills must be freely used to cleanse the stomach
and liver, so that the Pulmonic Syrup and food
will make good blood.
rjCHENCK'S
MANDRAKE PILLS
Act npon tho liver, removing all obstructions;
relax the ducts of the gall bladder, Uie bile starts
freely, and the liver is soon relieved; the stool
w ill show w hat the pills can do; nothing hiw
ever been invented except calomel (a deadly
poison which U very dangerous to use unless
w ith great care) that will unlock the gall bladder
and start the Bceretion of the liver like Scheuek's
Mandrake Tills.

SCHENCK'S
SEAWEED TONIC
Is a gentlo stlmnlant and alterative, aud the
alkali in the seaweed, which this preparation is '
made of, assists the stomach to throw oat the
giudric juice to dissolve tho food with tho Pul
monic fcyrnp, and it is made Into good blood
w ithout fermentation or souring the stomach.
THE GREAT REASON
Why physicians do not cure Consumption is,
they try to do too much; they give medicines to
stop the cough, to stop chills, to stop nigU
sw eats, hectic fever, aud by so doing they de
range the w hole digestive powers, locking up the
pocrctions, and eventually tho patient sinks and
dies.
Dr. SCI1ENCK, in his treatment, docs not try
to stop a cough," night sweats, chills, or fever.
Remove the Cause, and they will all stop of their
ow n accord. No one can be cured of Consump
tion, Liver Complaint, Dyspepsia, Catarrh, Can
ker, Ulcerated Throat, uuleso the liver and
stomach arc made healthy.
If a person has consumption, of course the
lungs arc in some way diseased either tubercles,
abscesses, bronchial irritation, pleural adhesion,
or the lungs ore a mass of inflammation aud fast,
decaying. In such cases what must be done ? It
is not oidy the lungs that are wasting, hut it ia
tho whole body. : Tho stomach aud liver have
lost their power to make blood out of food. Now
the only chance is to take Dr. SCILENCK'S
three medicines, w hiclt will bring up a tone t
the stomach, the patient will want food, it will
digest easily and make good blood; then the
patient begins to gain in flesh, and as soon as the
body begins to grow, the lungs commence to heal
up, und the patient gota fleshy aud well. This
is the only way to cure Consumption.

PERFECTLY HARMLESS.
Dr. fcCENCK, w ho has enjoyed uninterrupted
health, was waited away to a mere skeleton, ia
the very lust stage of Pulmonary Consumption,
ills physicians having pronouueed his case hope
less, and abandoned him to his late. He waa
cured by the aforesaid medicines, and since his
recovery many thousuuds similarly afflicted have
nscd Dr. Schcnck's preparations with the same
remarkable success. Full directions accompany
each, making it not absolutely necessary to per
sonally see Dr. Schenck, unless patients wish
their lungs examined, and for this purpose ho lj
