lands by an Fast India missionary the formula
f a simple vegetable remedy, for the speedy
and permanent cure of consumption, bronchitis,
oitarrli. asllima, and all throat and lung aflec-
lions, also a positive and radical cure for ner
vous debility and all nervous complaints, after
having tested lis wonderful curi ive powers in
thousands of cases has felt it his duty to make
il known to bis suffering fellows. Actuated by
this motive, ami a desire to relieve human suf

The following is given us a partial lit ol
siibjtcts of investigation under tlie Gloter
resolution, uliicli piisstd tin House on Fu
ll ay :
Tlie letting nf mail contract in llie latter
part of Grant's administration.
Hobcson's naval construction contracts.
The jobs ol the District Hing.
The circumstances attending tlie defeat of
the opponents against the electoral e'oiint.
The decision of tlie Presidential votes ol
South Carolina, Florida and Louisiana.
The restoration to rank of Runkle and
Draper.
The construction of public buildings
throughout tlie country.
Tim means by which the "desert-land
steal" was passed through the Inst Congres-,
and tin- subsequent transactions in that con
nectiun.
The whole business of the Indian Hureau
just covered by tho Scliurz investigation.
Our diplomatic relations with Jlex tco
and the nou recognition of Diaz.
The Naval Adniitii-trntioti witli a view to
frauds in general.
The extietidituifs of the Hott-e of Hepre
scntatives since the Fortieth Congress cov
ering all tlie investigations together with a
re-openiug of llio investigations ol the I'or
ty-eecond Congress.
The committees dave power to send for
persons and papers, have, probably, n Ion;
session before them, and may do the catt
of economy and good government great sit
vice. Or, il tit cy do not push their work
with vigor and thoroughness, they may di
gust tbu country and force people ratio r t
bear tlie ills than to seek relitf through it
vestigations. It tlie comniitti es shall pur
sue tlie course of Stcretary Scliurz, making
their inquiries sreret, incomplete line! unfair,
it Mould be better that nothing tit all should
be done.
Prot. Iliiyden's Geological and Geograph
ical Survey of the. Territories for 1877 is ol
interest to all. The survey itasconduclid
in an exceptionally syste malie manner, nml
our knowledge ot tlie paieontology of the it
giuns tiuversid has lit-en much cnlargi-i
i tie topographical work env. n u nn ari a n
about 30,000 square miles, hiii! u cuiiparu
tivrly unknown region rich in i iiu rals and
of great agricitliu al and grazing eapacitt
will be made known. Tlie riurvt-y extendi d
from Oregon to Montana, embracing the
Territories, of Utah, Colorado, Wyotnin.-,
Idaho ond Dakota. The expulsion when
in the field is composul of about 40 prisons,
including -cienti-ts, packers, rooks and la
borers; and it is generally dividid Into sev
eral parties, each lully equipped and prepar
ed to examine a specific area of cotiiilrt,
usually about 10.000 square miles, more or
less, depending upon. the character of the
country to be examined. The field seasoti
usually la-js about 4 months, tt lien tlie la
borers aref elicliarg(d at the starting point,
t ir scientists returning here for office duly.
This Sutvey has issued a scrim of annua!
reports, presenting tlie reulla In a popular
form, for general distribution, A series of
quarto volumes are also issued, embracing
purely cieulific uiattets, for distribution to
colleges, libraries mid scientific specialist
A series of Bulletins are also issurd.in which
subjects requiring tpe-cial and Immediate at
tention may be found. There are also the
miscellaneous publications, such as meteor
ology, distances and altitudes, catalogues,
etc.
Aa an Illustration of the esteem and ap
preciation in which the work accomplished
is held abroad, I quote General Hichard
Strachey, of the Hoyal Engineers of F.ng
luid, to n gentleman of digit scientific at
tainments in this country :
"It Is an undertaking in all respects most
honorable to your Government and to the
men of science who have been their agents
iu carrying it out. In truth It is, I believe,
the only really tcieuilllc -urvey of a grrat
country ever entered upou "
