lUtOrstate Comme1ore. - Defeat of the Rtea
gau 1nl1.-The Substitute Proposed.
The Committee on Commerce of the
Hlouse of Representatives at Washington,
decided on Pebruary 13th, by a vote of
nine to six, to report a substitute for the
Reagan Bill. That objectionable nicasure
Is practically defeated by this action. The
new bill proposes to make the same laws
which are applicable to railroads engaged
in iransporting freight between diierent
States also apply to the operations of
steamboats, lake vessels and other water
crafts. It provides for the appointment of
a Board of Commissioners who are to have
supervision of the entire subject of the
transportation of freight from one State or
Territory into or through other States and
Territories, and to examine into any com
plaints that may be made by the public of
unfair action on the part of common car
riers of any class that are engaged In this
important business. Unjust discrimina ion
Is forbidden under severe penalties, and in
case any of the transportars or transporta
tion companies fail to redress any sibstan
tint grievances brought to the attention of
the commissioners, proceedings are author
ized in the United States courts. If the
proposed new law is found to be not fully
effective in furnishing remedies for any of
the real evils that have grown up in con
,tection with the management of traispor
tition between different States it is made
the duty of the Commiissioners to suggest
additional legislation, and to obtialn and
furnish to Congress all information relating
to the operations of railroads that is likely
to prove useful and important it this con
necetion. This bill provides much more
appropriate and just methods for accom
plishing such reforms as may be neded
than the Reagan bill and with sonic amend
mnents may be acceptable to the trans
portation interest of the country: or at,
any rate, willserve as a basis for action,
should the plan suggested last winter he
adopted by Congress, and deliite legisla
tion be deferred until a commission of ex
perts shall be able to thoroughly investigate
Ihis complex subject and report their ma
tite judgment upon the aumatters at issue.
There is no (uestion that it amore intelli
gent conclusion could be reached in this
way, and one that would be more valuable
to all the interests involved. On general
principles tentative legislation is himrdly to
be recommended where it involves the
trafic of forty millions of people and
capital aggregating forty-flive hundred mil
lions of dollars.

free fron any injurious mercurial sub

at any time, without interfering with

same space with less weight. Water
below the temperature of its greatest
density Is an exception to the gener; 1
law of expansion by heat and contrac
tion by cold. But, for this wise -provis
ion of the Ureat Lawgiver, the rivers,
or even the ocean, woulid be frozen
solid, and the earth would be uninhabi
table. Water continues to contract by
the application of cold until it touches
39.2 dog. Fahr., when the law is re
versed, and from that point it expands
and goes on expanding under whatever
reduction of temperature. Tliis is tle
reason why crockery and even iron
vessels are broken by the freezing of
water In them. The expansive force of
confined water at and below the freez
ing point is something tremendous, and
it will explode a rock like a charge of
gunpowder.
Two OnGANs.-Regulate first the
stomach, second the liver: especially
the first, so as to perform their func

least ninetten twentieths of all the ills
that mankind is heir to, in this or any
other climate. 1op Bitters is the only
thing that will give perfectly healthy
natural action to these two organs.
Artesian wells are becoming very
numerous throughout Californ'la, fresh
ones being dug daily as well for irriga

for general water supplies in San Fran

$250 upward, and some furnish 250,000
gallons of the purest water daily. In
the San Joaqin Valley they are very
numerous, eleven being in full flow.

iew wells does not diminish their flow

been tried of forming an artie1ial lake
with this water and breeding fish in it,
and It has been found that the fish

subterranean sources as any other.

our Kratifude. Dr. Ralway has furnished an-/
kind with that woaedrful remedy, tadWiY*

who drag out an existence of paip and disease,
through long days and long nights, owe him
their gratitude:--M el sunger. or
t* FALSE AND TRUE.
We extract from Dr. Radwiy's "Treatise on
disease and Its cure," as follows:
list of Diseases Vured by
Radway's Sarsaprillian Resolvent.
Chronic Sklin Diseases, Caries of the Bone
Humors in the Blood, Sorofulous Dide ises. Ba
or unnai ural Habit of Body, Syphilis And Vene
real, Fever Sores. Chronic or Old Ulcers alt
Rheum, Rickets, White Swelling, Real i Nad,
Uterine Affections, Cankers, Glanoular Swell
Ings, Nodes, Wasting and Decay of the Body,
i'implea Rnd Blotches. Tumors, Dytpepsia. Kid
ney aid Bladder Diheases, Chronic Rh umatism
.nd Goui, dnasutmption, uravel and Calculous
Deposits, And varieties of ihe above complaints
to which sometimes are given Apecious names.
We assert that there is no known remedy that
possesses the curative power over these dis
eases that RADWAY'S RESOLVENT furnishes. It
cures, step by step, surely, from the founda
tion, and restorms the injured parts to their
sound condition.@The wnstenof tle body
re stopped and healthy blood is sup.
tied to the systean, from which now ma
'i&I is formed. This Is the fiset corrective
wor of RADWAY's RizoerTrr. In cases whore
e system has been talivated and Mercury,
icksilver Corrosive Sublimate have acumu
ed and become deposit ed in the bones, joints
)., causing c'arles or the bones, rickes B. soinal
rvatures, ,ontartions,. white swellings, varl
% veins, etc.. the SARSAPARILL.AN will resolve
ey those deposits an i exterminate the virus
.he disease from the system.

essing.W In these diseases the ptilent either
i, better or worse--the virus of the disease
not inactive; if not arrested and driven frota
