Tneee fallows assembled around the rear of the van,
Md as Tlpstave Thomas opened the door, and 1 1 aft

In pursuit yelled, "Stop him!" and on arriving at the

The matter was called to the attention of M.vor
Kox. WiiO immediately directed the fact to bo tcle

$t. John, N. U., ('t. Ti. At fifteen minutes before
fi o'clock this morning a severe shock of earthquake
was felt here, preceded by a rumbling noise and
vibrations, and lasted about twenty seconds. Houses
shook violently, everybody was awakened, and
manv rushed from their houses In alarm, but no ma
terial damage was done. In other parts of New
Brunswick, Frcderlekton, Woodstock, Miramiehe,
and St. Andrews, the shocks appear to have been
more severe, throwing down chimneys nnd cracking
the walls of houses. Similar shocks were felt in
Halifax, Anntipolis, and Kentville, Nova Scotia.
SICKLES.
IIIm Itelnllon with the Mndrltl 1'iibliiet.
Writes a correspondent on tlie 7th instant from
Madrid:
After what has occurred with regard to the note
passed by Mr. Sickles to this Government, and in
view of the cordial relations which seem to exist
between the American Ambassador and the mem
bers of the Cabinet, since he drives often with
Itivero, and is seen frequently in publio with the
other Ministers, the words of the Colonial Minister
Ueeerra in the Cortes yesterday must be considered
as highly significant. He urged, as usual, tlie im
perative necessity of conquering in Cuba, acknow
ledging at tlie same time the duty of the Govern
ment to allow to the Cubans all the liberties ac
corded to Spaniards, adding tlicso memorable
words:
"I do not thlnkthnt any nation loses prestige when
another great nationality arises from her centre,
provided that time and circumstances have united
to give that nationality the strength and energy suf
ficient for sustaining itself." This would seem to
imply that Spain, after satisfying the cravings of
national pride by gaining one or two important vic
tories over the rebels, is prepared to enter into
arrangements by which tlie Cubans can possess their
independence.

The money market continues to work steadily, with
rales of interest and discount unchanged. The out
flow of currency is quite large, but tiie lack of small
currency serves as a sort of protection to the banks
for the present. The rates, at the latter sources, for
call loans are about 0 per cent., with exceptional
cases at. 5 per cent, to close up balances, but on stock
collaterals tlie rates are fully 8 per cent., with many
transactions above that figure. The discount mar
ket continues dull, the terms ruling on the street
being unsatisfactory to Urst-class borrowers. At the
blinks prime signatures are generally current on
short time at about s per cent.
Gobi is rather active to-day, but with a good
supply in the market, tlie tendency of the premium
is downward. Sales opened at llli,, closing at

Government securities arc very dull, as. usual, but
prices are decidedly strong.

SQHENQK'S OOLUMNi
CONSUMPTION CMI BE CURED.
READ THE EVIDENCE.
"Facts are stubborn things," nnd it Is to facU
alone that it is desired to direct the attention ol
the readers of this article
Many years of severo and thorough practical
trial have demonstrated beyond the perad venture
of a doubt the fact that the medicines prepared
by me, and known as SCIIENCK'8 MANDRAKE
PILLS, SCIIEXC K'S SEAWEED TONIC, and
SCIIENCK'S PULMONIC SYRUP, have proved
extraordinarily successful In tho cure of diseases
of the Pulmonary organs, or what is usually
termed CONSUMPTION.
I am fully aware that there are many persons
whose prejudices rulo thcra so completely that
"proofs strong as Holy Writ" would fall to con
vince them of the cflleacy of my remedies; and
that there are others who, nndor no circum
stances, could be prevailed upon to admit their
merits, simply because such an admission would
prove detrimental to their particular personal
interests.
Fortunately for the welfare of mankind, these
doubting people form a comparatively small
portion of the community at largo. They are to
be found here and there, but, compared with the
great mass of the world's population, their num
bers nre so small that I dismiss them, and ad
dress myself to those who aro willing to listen to
the dictates of rea-on, rod who are disposed to
admit the strong lode of well-established facts.
We are told almost daily that Consumption,
the scourge of :ho American people, is incurable;
that a man whose lungs are diseased must be
given over to die; that he must abandon hope;
and that the arraugementof his temporal as well
ns spiritual affairs should claimliis earliest atten
tion. If there were not fac:s as undeniable as
that the sun will shine in a clear heaven at mid
day to controvert these random and not unfre
quently harmful assertions, I should feel un
willing to take up tho gage of battlo against
them; but, fortified with results acts -which
neither theory nor mere assertion can overturn,
accordance with the directions, in a majority of
cases effect that which the faculty pronounces
impossible they will cure Consumption.
An ounce of solid fact is worth a pound Of
theory. Let me, therefore, present the facts
connected with my own individual experience.
Many years ago I was a confirmed consumptive,
and, like thousands of other unfortunates, was
given up to tlie. Eminont physicians pro
nounced my case a hopeless one, and told me
that if I had any preparations to make for tho
linal solemn event, that I had better make them
speedily. I believed this just as confidently as
did the persons who thus affectionately informed
mo that my days wcro numbered aud that re
covery was impossible. Still, tho desire to live
lingered in my bosom. I was young, and clung
to life with the same tenncity that young men,
and old men too, ordinarily do. I did not feel
willing to abandon hope as'long as a single ves
tige of it remained. I had full faith In tho sad
information conveyed to mo by my physicians.
but still there was a lingering belief that some
thing fniild be done, though I knew not in what
din i lion to seek for the much-desired relief.
It wns at this gloomy aud eventtul period of
my history that I llrst learned of the roots and
herbs frem which my remedies for this dreaded
disease are now prepared. I procured and used
them, and, to the utter amazement of all phy- '
sieians, friends, and neighbors began to im
prove. My entire system commenced to undergo
n complete renovation. Expectoratlou, which
formerly had been dillleult and painful, now be
came comparatively easy. I throw off daily
large quantities of offensive yellow matter. At
tlie same time my loug-iosi appetite returned.
1 ate lreeiy di sucn ioou as was palatable to me,
and wlilcu was at tlio same lime nutritious and
wholesome. Expectoration became less copious
and less offensive; exhausting night sweat
ceased ; the racking and harassiug cough abated ;
the fever broke; tlie pain departed; tiesh planted
Itself on my sadly-wasted frame, and with flesh
came strength and full health. From a mcro
skeleton I became a stout, strong, robust man,
and I have maintained both strength and llesli
to this day. 1 weigh two hundred aud thirty
five pounds ; I am blest with an appetite vouch
safed to but few men, while my digestive organs
are amply equal to all the requirements of a
healthful condition of my system.
Now, do it remembered, all tlicso womiernu
changes were wrouirht by tho uso of the medi
cines 1 prepare aiakuk a ki, nis, oh.a- -WEED
TONIC, and PULMONIC SKRUF. A
cure seemingly so miraculous naturally created
astonishment in the minds of those who knew ,
me. I was literally besieged on all sides. I had :
visitors daily who besought me to give them the
remedies wnicn una wrougut ino wonuenui
restoration and had wrested me from the very
jaws of death. Letters were received bv scores
importuning mo to Impart tlie secret and inform
the writers where tho specifics for consumption
could be obtained. Others, who were too weak
to travel, not satisfied with writing, sent for and
consulted mo iu regard to their cases. To all
these applications I responded as I was able.
1 had fully regained my health, aud gratitude
for tho happy result prompted mo to turn my
attention to tho science of medicine, with the
hope of thereby being able to be of service to
my suffering fellow-creatures. I devoted myself
closely to my studies, aud more especially t
that branch of them relating to tho terrible dis
ease from which I had suffered so long and so
much. 1 Investigated it in all it3 fearful phases,
in order to assure myself that my case was not
an exceptional one. The closer my investiga
tions the more satisfactory were my conclusions.
I felt convinced that tens of thousands of my
fellow-creatures were dying annually from con
sumption whoso ctfs-es were not as desperate and
apparently hopeless as mine had been, and I
ar- ued from this that remedies which hud proven
so'clicctive with me would prove equally so with
others. I prepared my medicines In a pleasant
and attractive form, and announced them to the
world.' The results are well known. Thou
sands of suffering men, women, and children,
who were on their way lo the grave, have been
cured and are to-dav living evidences of the
fact that CONSUMPTION CAN HE CURED;
aud I think I may say, without arrogating to
myself any more than is justly my due, .that I
have had as much experience in the treatment
of consumption as any other person in tho coun
try, and that my success has been wonderfully
great. , .....
Let the reader remember that those are not
mere fancied statements. They are positive
living facts of which I am the living evidence.
There is an old adage which says, "What has
been done may bo done." 1 have been com
plately cured of consumption by tho remedies I
now offer to the public. Thousands of others '
have testified to similar happy results from their
use, aud thousands of others still might be bene
fitted as I have been could they but be prevailed
upon to try the virtue of The Mandrake Pills,
Seaweed Tonio, and J'uhnonio Byrup. All that
is uecessary to convince the most skeptical ol
their merits is a fair trial.
Full directions accompany each of the medi
cines, so that It is not absolutely necessary that
patients should see me personally, unless they
desire to have their lungs examined. For this
purpose I am personally at my Puincipai,
