Nothing has lately led to so much comment in diplomatic circles a Prince Gortschakotf s letter to Minis ter Curtin relative to the treatment of Minister Catacazy by the United States Government, The document is supposed to have the sanction ot the Czar, and foreshadows that Mr. Catacazy is to be sustained by his own government. The letter is re garded by high officers as a direct and open insult to the President and secretary of State, and likely to lea l to serious result*. The country need not be surrnVd if Mr. Curtin, our minister to Russia, is immediate ly ordered t<>demand his passports, and the Russian charge d'affaires here supplied with his, in order that may take his departure from tin* United States. This Would break off all diplomatic intercourse with Rus sia ; but such a i-tep is said to have been under contemplation already by our authorities. Tiie Tribune on the Squabble. 1 From the New York Tribune. It seems probable that our teri years' cordiality with the Empire of Russia is drawing near its close. The bitterness of our pique against Eng land and France has long died away, and the last relics of it naturally fa ded with the fall at Sedan of our worst enemy in the French Govern ment, ami the satisfactory arrange ment at Washington of our causes of discontent with England. The exag gerated tenderness between us and Ru?sia was very profitable to her, and of little use to us except so far j as it caused anguish of mind to ?J er j riv ds in the European Geld. * * * Prince Gortschakoff seems to have determined that the rudeness and .discourtesy shall not be all on one side, and has addressed to Minister Curtin and-following our example has published in the official gazette, one of the most rasping among fill diplomatic notes which have lately j been exchanged among civil zed na tions. He clearly does not intend' tiiflA nl,r State department shall carry \ .away the honors of offensive lan guage. He, accuses our secretary cat egorically of "a want of re-pect and consideration" for tiie Russian min ister ; speaks of his " serums, though , vague, complaints," many of which I Catacazy has "satisfactorily refuted." 1 and th?1 rest, it is clearly intimated. | bc wi 1 refute when he returns, andi the note ends with the sarcastic ex-1 pression of the chancellor's hope j " that justice is sufficiently under- ! 8 0'J<1 in the United States not to ex- j peet it before." A passage like this j between the two departments of St tte ! has a double significance. It not on- ! ly indicates a decided coolness in the relations of the respective nations, but it also aggravates the very aliena tion it announces. It is not impos sible that the rift thus created mav be widened by mutual recriminations to the point of a temporary suspen sion of diplomatic relations. But it is not likely that any important je suits can flow from the disagreement, even if it reaches that extreme point. We are too far apart to fight about Catacazy. I Not long since, an elderly lady en t .; ed a railway car, and disturbed i the passengers a good deal wi.h com plaints about a *' most dreadful rheu matiz" that she was troubled with. A gentleman present, who had him self been a severe sufferer with the same complaint, said to her, " Did you ever try electricity, : ma'am ? I tried it, and in the course ; of a short time, it cured me." "Electricity!" exclaimed the oid lady, ''yes, I've tried it to my satis faction. / was struck by lightning about a year ago, but it didn't do me a sing'e mossel of good." - - -. II^II ? A Sin jjrular Turn of Fortune's ?heel. A few years ago a lady living in South Boston was left a widow with five small children and nothing in the , world with which to suj ply them save the labor of her hands. For i two or three v?a rs her struggle with I poverty was hard, and to acid to her unhappiness two of her children were t :ken h o ?ii her by d<-at!i. About a y vir ago s'ie applied at ii re.;j estate agency in that city f ra tenement, und the gUitleman with whom she transacted her business was much pleased with her appearance and de- t sired further acquaintance with her. The desire being expressed, she fa vored it, nnd they met again, when tiie acquaintance was improved, she f looking upon him with favor, as lie ] appeared to be a man of religious 1 and other commendable attributes. In a short timehe declared his love for her and offered her his heart, hand and fortune. The acquaintance hav ing been comparatively short, "he la dy suggested that, as a proof of his sincerity, he should make over to her i a portion* of his fortune. TD this proposition he readily acceded, and, 1 before she left the office, he handed ? har a deed of one-half of his prop erty, which was in real estate, loci ted r r.sar Bangor, Me. The n**xt morning { :ihe went and had the deed recorded r in due form, and was then ready to t ace ot the " heart and hand" which her new found acquaintance had proffered her. But, alas! ere alie < ould make known to him her readi ness tn be a party ro the speedy inar- / riage which lie bad urged, she was a^coatecfc by, a lady who claimed and a proved to be the wife of the gentle man abe Lad been negotiating with. ? I Fired vtiih indignation at the de-J reit which had been practiced upon 1er, the South Boston lady hurried u the man's office for an explanation, jie admitted all, and confessed that nar ri age wit i her would be impossi ble, but, as a proof pi" his regard for uer, he insisted upon her keeping the property, .ind forthwith appointed an rigent to sell it for her benefit, which that agent has recently done. . The property deeded to the Indy was worth about .-eventyfive thousand dollars. So much for " love at si gi it." Thc nay They Collect a Neb! at . saratoga. How ?1 recalcitrant debtor was fore t'i into liquidation is thus shown in rite Troy Tvmea . A man at ^yr.toga lins made ita boast fur some time past that he could hot be compelled to pay a debt ex cept as he pleased? Recently a man there obtained an execution for some thing over $20 against this boaster, and Constable Paine of that place succeeded in obtaining a portion ol tb? sum in this wise: Learning that his man was in the habit of buck ing the tiger" at a certain place, he tock ocasi?n to cal1 and watch the game. He found Ihe-man with a pile of chips repre-enting about $9 before him. As that was le s than half his execution he thought he would wait a little for the chances. Soon a turn of the game took off $3 of the debtor's pile, but the constable was in for it ami waited until luck took another turn, bringing up the pile of chips to $13. He could not wait .my longer, and called "keno" on it a. once. His customer dispu ted the " correctness" of this call, but officer Paine is not used to being " bluffed," and claimed the cash of tue I-anker, which he received and indorsed on the execution at once. It is so easy to overdo a good thing and the " slip" between the " cup and the lip" is so readily found. A me chanic rejoicing in the name of Du bois, and a i esident of the city of De troit, took to drinking, and was speed ily transformed from a hard-working man into a drunken sot. His good wife scolded, entreated, diminished the thickness of his beard without *the use of a razor, but could make no change. One night Dubois arriv ed home and found that his wife and his c;oat had changed places-tue lat ter lay on the floor and the former was suspended from the hook. Up rushed Dubois ?o the reson?, took his wife down, and afb . much labor, brought her to her senses. The at tempt at suicide completely sobered him, and like Obadiah Oldbuck, he turned over a new leaf. He promis ed uever to drink again, and proba bly would have kept his word if his wife had been able to keep her own counsel. But she was just smart enough to inform several of her neigh bors that the apparent hanging was a put-up job, the rope beingtiedunder her a. ms. The knowledge of i?is little practical joke coming to Dubois'? cars he first thrashed the whole fam ily, then perf -rmed some extraordi nary feats of furniture-smashing, -ind finally left the premises, and has not been seen since. Florence, the comedian, tells a cap ital story <>f a waiter atone of the London taverns, who was sadly given to drink. A party of young men de termined to reform him, ana one day read an imaginary paragraph from the ruiper. relating a terrible accident, in wn eh an inebriate, in blowing out a candle, was killed by the flame ig niting with the fumes of his breath. Jerry pricked up his ears at this, and requested that the paragraph might be rend for him again, which was lune, !.. th'* evident horror of the ;x>vr man, who immediately went in search ot the cook to borrow a pray er book Returning with this, he ex pressed desire to cake a solemn oath upon ir, bemi'.ined the fact that he ha 1 been a sorry tippler, and was br.nglcg himself to ruin, and then that never again, so long as he lived, would he-attempt to blow out a Candle. A Party of mischievous boys near Kankakee, Ul., stu fled an old suit ol clothes with straw with sticks ol' wood for legs, and buried it in the ground. They then killed a couple of chickens and >piiled the blood plcmiou ly over and in the vieinity of the grave. As they expected, the grave and blood were dis-overed, sus picions of murder were raised, the coroner was summoned, a jury im panneled, and an inquest prepared for. Coroner, jury, and all bystan ders a.-knowledged themselves " sold" when the straw dummy was exhumed J. L. ADDISON, \ttoruey at Law and Solicitor in Eqttity.

' . .' ?ra?.. THE CAUSE AND CUBE OE OTNSTJ??ETipK -The primary cansa o? Consumption ta derange ment of the digestive organs. This derangement produces deficient nutrition and assimilation, By -assimilation I mean that process by which the nu triment of tho food'l? converted jpto bloo^and : thence trito'the soUas'-or*the Dody.{ ?rl?? %ith dlgc?tlon thus Impaired, having the silentest pre di.?posIt'oii to pulmonary, disease, or If they taie cold, will Lie very liable to have Consumption of the Lungs (asome of its forma ; and Z hold that lt wlll.be impossible to cure any case of Consumption without first restoring a good dfgesUon and*healthy assimilation. The very flrst thing lot? ?one is to cleanse the stomach and bowels from all diseased mucus and slime, which Is clogging these organs so that they cannot perform their- fnnctfons, and then rouse np and restore the'liver toa healthy action. For this purpose the surest and best remedy ls Schenck's Mandrake Pills. These Pills clean tho stomach and bowels of all thread and morbid slime'that ls causingdlseaxo and ?cay In the whole system. They will Clear oiittb? liver of all diseased bile that bas accu m ul at pd there, and rouse lt up to a new and healthy action, by which natural and healthy bile ia accreted. :tf TSR stomach, bow?la, and liver are thoa cleansed byrnedse^of tWieTick*s jrondi'nto Ptna; bnttnere remotas In the stomach an.exeee?. of *_ajctd,',the organ Is torpid and the appetite poor. In ttebpw els the lacteala are weat, and requiring sirentrth and rapport. It to in a condition Uko this that Schenck's Seaweed Tonic proves to be the most valuable remedy ever discovered, lt to alkaline, and ito ase will neutralise all excess of acid, mak in? the stomach sweet and fresh; lt wUi give, per manent tone to this" Important organ, and create ? good, hearty appetite, and prepare the system for tho first process of * good digestion, and .ultimately make good, healthy, Uv;ag blood. SAfter this preparatory treatment, what'remains to care- moat caaes of consumpvion * thomee and persevering use of Schenck's Pulmonlc Syrup. Thc Pulmonlc Syrup nourishes the system, po ri ll ea the blood, and ta-readily absorbed Into the circulation, and thence distributed to tho diseased longs. There lt ripens all morbid matters, whether In the (brm of abscesses or tubercles, and then assista Nature to expel all the diseased matter, In tho form of free expectoration, when once it ripens. It to then, by the great healing, and purifying pro pert Dee of Schenck's Pulmonlc Syrop, ?at all ulcers and cavities are healed up sound, and my patient ls cured. ^The essential thing to be done tn caring Oon cavltyc. _ matter cannot ripen, ao long os th? system to below par. What to necoasory to cure Is a new order of thlngs,-a good app?tit?. * good nurriUon, the body to grow in Bash and get fat; then Nature to helped, the cavltlos will heal, the matter will ripen and be thrown off in largo o^antiti? imdfhoperson regain health and strength. Thia to the true and only pian to oar?

This ls what Seheoclc's M>di?Jn?JWffl -dh to care Consumption. They will cleon out the ?itomoch, sweeten and strengthen lt, get up a good djges?oc, and give Notorothe^ossjlstanc^ the system of ali th e disease that ts In the talga, whatever the form may bo it to important that while using Sonooek'a Medi cines, ear* should b? exercised not to tain cold: keep in-door? tn ?old and damp vc eather: avoid night air. and Uko out-door exercise only in a genial and wann sunshine. ' " .*_, I wish lt distinctly oadetwtood that When I recom mend a patient to bo careful In regard to talcing cold, whlfensin? my li UdneM do sp for a special reason." A man who has bat partially recovered from the effects of a bad cold to nsx more liable to % relapse than one who hos been-^ntiraly corad; and It to precisely the same In regard to Consump tion. So long aa Uro lungs ore not perfectly healed, Just so long to there Imminent danger of a full re turn of the disease. Hence lt is that I so strenu ously caution pulmonary patienta against exposing themselves to an atmosphere that ls not genial and pleasant. Confirmed Conanmpttvaa' lungs ore a mass of sores, which tho least change of atmos phere will Inflame. TH? grand secret of my suc cess with my Medicines constats In my sbUlty to subdue Inflammation Instead, of provoking lt, aa many of the faculty do. Ac inflamed ?ting cannot, with safety to the patient, be exposed to the biting ?Hasts.of Winter or th? cbUllcr winds of Spring tr Autumn. It should be carefully shielded from oU irritating lomiencaa.

I was myself cajsd by this bratment of the worst kind of Consumption, and have Bved to get lat and hearty thon many years, with .ono tate mostly gone.
