THE COMING GREATNESS OF THE ANTIPODEAN REPUBLIC. A Century Banc It Will it Peopled by 50,000,000 of Kngllah "peaking Inhab itant Mlttrea or th Eastern Arehl. palago A New Tpa, There I every reasonable nmhahllltv that In 108 Australia will be a fixlenil republic, peopled by 80,000,000 of English speaking men, wbo, sprung from the same race as th American of the Union, win nav aeveiopea a separate and recog nizable type, resembling, yet differing from, that of their cousins In the western Atlantic. The most difficult work of set tlement, the provision of food, houses, in struments and organization sufficient to tempt and to provide for Increasius multi tudes, has been accomplished, and soou the stream of emigration that wonderful outflow of annual armies from Eurojie, leaderlesa but obedient, guideless but on faltering will turn to Australia In In creasing volume. 1 be populousnes 1 almost certain, and so Is its organization as a republic, and a we should predict, republic with cer tain aggressive tendencies. Australia will have no boundaries but the sea, no neigh bor who dare threaten her, no absolute need for a foreign policy of any kind, but she will have one none the less. Her peo ple will differ from the American. They will not be so entirely agricultural as the Americans were, they will be horsemen, not gig drivers; they will have almost from the first more ambition, and they will in many was have at once a greater largeness of view and more nnscrnpulous nesa. Already their foreign policy In terests Australians acutely, and their first effort to act a a nation has been to form a fleet Already they display that curious feeling, so different In different peoples, that distance on water has for them little or no raenuing. They never dream of excluding New Zealand from their aggregate, though it is as far from their coast as Constantinople from Lon don; and they rage at the occupation of the New Hebrides by foreigners, though the islands are 1,300 miles away. Their whole conception of distance differs from ours as might that of the inhabitants of a larger planet; and their grasp, when they begin to grasp, will be fur reaching. Descended from adventurers, not from Puritans, taught hardness by tbelr early contact with violent criminals, accustomed to the management of dark subject races for halt Australia can only be culti vated by their aid and eager as men of their climate must be for pleasant lives, they will thirst for dependent possessions, for gardens were fortunes grow, for the tplendld fragments of a broken continent which spread in three great lines oi Islands from the Australian mainland to that of Asia, and they will possess them all. From the Philippine in the north about as far off from Australia as Nevv Zealand Is straight down to the south, Borneo and Sumatra, Celebes and Java, the endless Islands of the Bands sea, and the grand mass of Papua, will all belong to tho Australians and will be cultivated for them nnder their government, aa owners as well as rulers, by the overspill of southern Asia, which by that time, nnless the ratio alters, will be groaning nnder twice its existing population. The Australian republic will be mistress not only on her own continent, bnt of the Eastern archipelago that is, of the lands which In all the world are richest In min erals, forests and the means of yielding all that the tropics can produce. The de sire to acquire these possessions, the ne cessity of defending them, the habit of ruling them, will force upon Australian statesmen and people, fleets, armies dark as well as white and alliances; ana witr. them ideas, habits and methods of polit ical organization widely different from those of the Americans, from whom tney differ also In the arrangements of their society. It is dlfflcn.lt, without mere dreaming, to predict what the future of this society will be; but we venture to think that It will approximate much more closely to the Italian than the American type; that Is, it will be democratic, but not hard. The early American!, whose influence Is only just dying out, were men of aus tere temper who led on an ungrate ful soil New England is worse to farm than Scotland lives or. per manent hardship. They had to nght the sea, the snow, the forests, the Indians and their own hearts; and did fight them all, If not with complete success, at least with persistent hardness. The Aus tralians, we conceive, with a more con genial and altogether warmer climate, without Puritan traditions, with wealth among them from the first, and with a habit of communion witn jLurope, wiu oe softer, thouirhnot weaker people, loud er of luxury and better fitted to enjoy art, with an appreciation or. Deauty wnicn ine Americans have never shown, and with not only a love for literature but a power of producing it In original forms. They will be a people growing ana urmauug wine, carina much for easy society, ad dicted to conversation, and though ener getic, with a keen desire loraweu oraerea and restful life. Thev will not. nnless corapeuea, aiiow their women to wear themselves out as the Americans do; will, in truth, we sus pect, with that climate to mold them, and that indifference to expense which is one of their marked characteristics, never be happy without servants, a difference, which, as the servants must be dark, may profoundly anect tneir civilization. urj will, in short, deske easier and larger lives than the American do, will be less persistently laborious, and will feel we note this already in Australians almost as strongly as In Californtans a sort of worship for their climate. The r,nt. nf .linmntent which penetrates the whole American character will be ab sent, and If not exactly happier, they will be more at ease, AU Australian development will be affected by that difference, and as they cease to be British, Germans and Irian, tne men oi wi type which wlU gradually b born, the distinctive and separate' "Australians, will be a distinguishable In England a the Americans, and disunguisnamo from them.

FISHING FOR TROUT. Th r j Oullll Sklli llrqitlrvd la Mak a Lurkr Klaliormaa. Trent Dshlng Is of two kinds halt fish ing with earth worms in the ponds and Stream and the ousting of artificial flies on the surface of the water. Bult flshinn I the first In order. It is lexa expensive and requires les skill and delicacy ot candling than fly fli-lilug. During the height of the season there are times when, for some uunccountahle reason, trout will not rise to the nioxt tempting fly, but will take a worm deftly dropped before its nose. A rod should be fourteen feet long, about seven ounces In welch t, and so touch, strong ami elastic aa to bend al most double without breaking. A good reel, fitted to it, and a line of silk or linen, with snella aud hooks, a box of bait, a inker on each sncll heavy enough to pre vent the current of swift streams from whirring the hook aliout too fast, and a creel to carry the fish in completes the equipment. In trout llshliig, as in violin playing, more depends upon skill than anything ele. The musician can delight his hearers with a fairly good instrument more than cun the tyro with a Strndi- varius, ami the skillful disciple of Iziiuk W alton can catch more trout with a com mon rod and self mude Hies than the novice can with the most expensive par aphernalia. When a sinker Is nsed In bait fishing, as it must be, it Bhould be fastened so that the loop in the gut or sncll of the hook Is above It. The hook should be about a foot below the siuker. Common earth worms are the best, and should be put on by running the book through und through them, euro being taken to cover completely the barb and the shaft. Casting Is only learned by practice; It cannot be taught theoretically any more than can swimming, riding or shooting. The line In fishing should be habitually kept at the length of the rod. Keep out of sight of the lish. When once the trout is on, never slacken the Hue. Pull stead ily, but firmly, and jerk quickly if he Jumps out of the water, for there he is apt to unhook himself ami escape. Arti ficial flies are too numerous for descrip tion. They may be mude at home with a few feathers and a little colored sewing silk, but fly books are now so reasonable In price and so complete In arrangement that it Is better to buy them than to trust to one's own ingenuity unless, indeed, one be a connoisseur, In which case these hints are useless. Tackle should be of the lightest and strongest description. The scientific trout fisher is the man who can cast a fly within the space of a pocket handkerchief, at about eighteen yards' distance. It must drop upon the water ns lightly as a rent fly would light, and the rod must be field well up and securely In the right baud. Long island Cor. New York Times. In a Venetian Churrh. It was In this church that I becnm fully conscious of the superior methous of the Catholic church in Europe, at least in their ability to reach down und tuke in all classes of people. The churches of Italy are open ut all hours and times. The central portions of the churches are clear. There are chairs alxnit which can be used upon special occasions or by delicate peo ple, but in this Venetian church the audi ence stood as they would ut a political out door meeting. There was an utu-r ab sence of formal requirement which was most agreeable to witness. People camo In and went out r.s they pleased. Even those who were listening to the sermon felt under ne compunctions to listen to more thnn they cared to hear. They could listen to a portion mid then move on. People came in out ot the street just as they happened to be dressed in passing. Exquisitely dressed ladies from the high est class stood side by side with market women who came in with their baskets. Here was the first church service that I had ever witnessed in my life where it was evident that every one was mode welcomo, and that in this splendid palace of religion there was the most perfect democracy to be found In Itsnudicuce. T. C. Crawford In New York World. Tobacco Among the "nnrmonltes." Alighting from the train at the hand some modern station house of Btone, close by the river side, we start up the road way lending over the bhiff to the village. A middle aged German 'accosts us, smil ing. "Welcome," he says, pleasantly. "I hall be de kite. I haf many peoples shown Economy." He laughs ami we laugh; there Is a gen eral shaking of hands. No other intro duction Is necessary. As we resume our walk one of our party lights a cigar. "Vat you do?" asks the guide, stopping, with eyebrows raised with surprise. "Smoke," replies the astonished gen tleman. "Ve smoke not tobacco here," says the guide. "But I use It." "Sof Veil, not In Economy. Ve haf no nse mlt tobacco." Objections are useless; the cigar Is thrown away. The guide places his foot on it in triumph. For ninny years no to bacco ha been used in Economy, except by stealth. An edict was hssued against It because the practice was deemed an evil one, and these sturdy Germans must have credit for self sacrlllce, as it is a national characteristic dearly to love a pipe. H.

A THRILLING EXPERIENCE. Itrtnarkable Nlalemrnt ot I'aruinal Dan cer and I'rovlileiitlal latae. The following story which is attract ing wide attention from the press is so remarkable that we cannot e xcuso our selves if we do not lay it before our readers, entire : 7( Iht Editor Rtxhtttrr (.V 1 ,) Vmnrrn'.' Sir. Un the first day of June, 1HH1, 1 lav nt inv residence in this cltv ur- rounded by my friends and waiting (or lentil. Heaven only knows the agony 1 then endured, for words can never lewrilie it- And vet. if a few vt-ar previous anv one had told me that was to lie bronchi so low, ami by so terrible a disease, 1 should have scollWl at the idea. 1 had alwavs been unconimonlv strong and healthy, and weighed over 200 pounds and hardly knew, in my ex perience, what pain or sickness were. Very many people who read this state ment realize at times that they aro nn usuallv tired and cannot account for it. Tliev feel dull pains in various parts of the bodv and do not understand wliv. Or they are exceedingly hungry one day and entirely without appetite the next. This was just the way 1 felt when the relentless malady wiuon nan iasienei Itself upon me first begun. Still 1 thought nothing of it; that probably I hnd taken a cold which would soon pass awav. HioHlv after this 1 noticed a heavv. and at times neuralgic, puin in one side of my head, but as it would come one day and be gone tne next, 1 paid little attention to it. Then my stomach would get out of order and my food often failed to digest, causing nt times great inconvenience. Yet, even as a physician, I did not think that these things meant anything serious. 1 fancied 1 was snllcring ironi matnrm ami loutored mynelf accordingly, tint 1 got no better. 1 next noticed a peculiar color and odor about the thiids I was passing also that there were large inantitu'8 one day and very utile tne next and that a persistent froth and sciiin appeared on the surface, and a sediment settled. And vet I did not realize my danger, for, indeed, seeing there symptoms continually, I finally became" accustomed to them, and my suspicion was wholly disarmed bv the fact thut 1 nnd no pain in tne niiccieu organs or in tiieir vicinity, w ny l should have been so blind I cannot un derstand. I consulted the liest medical skill In the land 1 visited all the famed min eral springs in Anieriru and traveled from Maine to California. Kill I grew worse. No two physicians agreed as to mv mnhuly. One said I was troubled with Bpinal irritation; another, dyspep sia; another, heart disease; anotner, general debility ; another, congestion of the base of the bruin ; and so on inrougn a long list of common disease, the symp toms of many of which I really had. in this way several years passed, during w hich time I wan steadily growing worse. Mv rnmlition hnd renllv iiecAnie nitiable. Tlie slight symptoms t had at Hist ex perienced were developed into terrible and constant disorders. My weight had been reduced from '207 to 130 pounds. Mv life was a burden to myself and friends. I could retain no food on my stomach, and lived wholly by Injections. 1 was a living mass of pain. My pulse u-ni nnennlrnllillile. In mv fltfOHV I fre quently fell to the floor and clutched the carpet, and prayed lor ueatn. juorpnine had little or no effect lu oeauening tne i pain. For six days and nights I hnd the death-premonitory hiccoughs constantly. Mv water was filled w ith tu!e-caBts and albumen. I was struggling with Brinht's Disease of the kidney in its last stages! While suffering thus I received a can from mv nastor. the Uev. Dr. Foote, at that time rector of St. Paul's Episcopal Church, of this citv. I felt that It was our last interview, but in the course of conversation Dr. roote detailed to me the many remarkable cures of cases like my own whicti nad come unoer nm ou- servation. as a practicing mivsician and a irrnduate of the schools I derided the Idea of any medicine outside the retrnlar channel beiag In the least Den eflcial. So solicitous, however, was Dr. Foote, that I finally promised 1 would waive mv nre urtice. 1 betjan us use on the first dav of June. 1881. and took it according to directions. At first It sick ened me; but this I thought was a good Miin for one in mv debilitated condition. I continued to take it; the sickening sensation departed and I was finally able to retain food on my stomach. In a few days I noticed a decided change for the better, as also did my wife and friends. Mv hiccouizhs ceased and 1 ex nerienced less oain than formerly. 1 was so rejoiced at this improved condi tion that, upon what I had believed but a few dnv Ix-fore was mv dvins bed. I vowed, in the presence oi my family and friends, s hou Id 1 recover. 1 would botn publicly and privately make known this remedy lor tne goou oi numaniiy, wiier evpr and whenever I had an opportun ity, and tin letter ia in fulfillment oi that vow. My improvement was con stant from that time, and in less than three months I had gained 20 bounds in flesh, became entirely free from pain and I lx'licve I owe my life and present romlition wholly to Warner's Safe Cure, rlin remedy which I need. Since my recovery I have thoroughly re-investignted the subject of kidnev dif ficulties and Bright', disease, and tne truths developed are astounding. 1 then-fore state, deliberately, and as i nhvsic an. that I believe murf limit one- half the' tlrath v liirh urrur in America are cuunl hy Jtnijhl'i dheatr of the kid- it. This may sound like a rasn state ment, but I am prepared to fully verify it. Bright' disease has no distinctive features of its own, (indeed, it often develops without any pain whatever in the kidnevs or their vicinity) but nas the svmtitoms of nearly every other com mon complaint. Hundreds of people die daily, whose burials are authorized by a physician's certificate as occurring from "Heart Disease," "Apoplexy," I'ara vsis." "Suinal Complaint." " Rheninntism." " Pneumonia." and other common complaints, when in real ... . ,;, . iii . tv it is from tfriirni uisease oi uie Sid neys. Few physicians, and fewer peo ple realize the extent oi mi uisease or lt datim-rons and insidious nature. It steals into the system like a thief, mani fests its presence if at all by the com monest symptoms and fastens ltelf ir the constitution before the victim ii aware of it. It Is nearly as hereditary as consumption, quite as common an t full yas fatal, r.nure iaiiiiuen,inncriuiiK it from their ancestors, bave died, am vet none knew or realized the mysteri ous power which wss removing them. Instead of common symptom it oiu-n shows none whatever, but brings death suddenly, from convulsions, apoplexy or heart disease. A one no nas sui fered, and knows by hitler experience what he says, I implore everyone wbo read these words not tooneglnt the slightest symptsoms of kidney difficulty. No one can afford to hazard such chances. I make the foregoing statements based opon facta which I ran substantiate to the letter. The welfare of those who may poscibly be sufferer such as I was, is an ample inducement for me to take the tp I have, and if I can successfully warn other from the dangerou path in which I once walked, I am willing to endure all professional and personal con sequence. 1 J.

Talking of patent medicines -you know the old prejudice. And the doctors some of them are between you and us. They would like you to think that what's cured thousands won't cure you. You'd be lieve in patent medicines if they didn't profess to cure everything and so, between the experiments of doctors, and the experiments of patent medicines that are sold only because there's money in the " stuff, you lose faith m every thing:. And, you cant always tell the prescription that cures by what you read in the papers. So, perhaps, there's no better way to sell a remedy, than to tell the truth about it, and take the risk of its doing just what it professes to do. That's what the World's Dispensary Medical Associa tion, of Buffalo, N. Y., docs with Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery, Favorite Prescription, Pleasant Pellets, and Dr. Sage's Catarrh Remedy. If they don't do what their makers say they 11 do you get your money back. Tk4 OMilt MidUim im Iht World It frtiaiiy Illt.
