PRISONERS RELEASED AT MANILA.
Major General MacArthur has carried his promise into effect and at once a thousand prisoners of war will enjoy the blessing of liberty, says the Manila Times of the 7th inst The mandate is embodied in General Orders 89 cs, in these terms-
"In view of the rapid pacification of the Archipelago, in consequence of the acceptance of the sovereignty of the, United States by many leaders of the armed insurrection, and in order to especially signalize the recent surrender of General Manuel Tinio and other prominent leaders in the provinces of Ahm and flocos Norte, one thousand prisoners of war will, upon taking the oath of allegiance to the United States, be released and sent to their homes, for which purpose the Provost Marshal General will give necessary orders.
་་
By command of Major General Mac-
Arthur."
The tale of selecting these prisoners, and learning the Incation of their homes, and providing transportation to the same is, of Course, one that will not be accomplished in a day, but the prisoners designated by the authorities to enjoy this boon will be given their freedom in turn as fast as is possible.
This will relieve more of the responsibility and work of the government. Abendy the Olongapo prison is abolished and the Manila prisons, or places of confi ement rather, are fast becoming thinted of their inhabitants. No doubt the government is glad of such an opportunity.
COMMISSARY SCANDALS
AT MANILA.
ן.
SAN FRANCISco, April 2nd. The people of this city are becoining can- vinced that the reports that such men as D, M.: Carmen, under arrest af Manila, were created through the influence of Urigadier General Elwell T. Olis have some basis in fact.
Mails from the Philippines to-day contain much of interest concerning pending commiss ary scandals, which news has been shut out by a rigid ceuronship of the cables. The government, it is believed, is endeavouring t minimize the reports of fraud, but the inclinds of the thieves that are being brought to ligh does not reflect any credit, to say the least, or the administration that preceded that of Mac Arthur. One specisil letter from the Philippines just at hand contains the following statements,
showing up a strange condition of affairs:
THE CARTING CONTRACTS, |
"A large amount of the government freight ing in Manila was done by means of two- -wheeled carts, drawn by water buffaloes. These carts have no sideboards. When a private individual employs one the car is loaded with 2000 or 2500 pounds. When the government has any hauling to du cach cart will contain a foud weighing from 150 to 240 pounds. It was a frequent sight in Manila tó sec a train of fieen or twenty, carts, each containing about'a double armful of stovewood. These caris are rented by contract, after bids have been called for. The government pays enough rentals every month for buil carts in huy all the carts and buffaloes in the archipelago.
"Cormen was given the bull cart privilege by Otis, and is alleged to be a relative of the general by marriage. DM. Carmen's history, in the islands is interesting.. When the city of Manila was taken by the American troops a rich Spaniard owned the only belt railroad in Spain. The the place. The owner fled military authorities of the United States took possession of the line, and it was finally leated
to Carmen along with warehouse monopolies,
This caused a howl from the Manila people and a sharp rebuke firm the American press in the Philippines. The papers that published the stories were called down by the censo and thereafter the corporation enjoyed im munity from attack and made thousands of dollars per month."-Pu. North American.'"

The accommodation for passengers will be above the standard set even by the existing, intermediate vessels of the fast. There are quarters for altogether 2,850 passengers, and a crew of 335. The first-class accommodation is on the upper, the bridge, the upper-bridge, and. the boat decks, and corresponds to that of the Cymric. The number of first-class passengers provided for is 347. The dining saloon is on the upper deck, and is the fall width of the ship. Aft on the upper and bridge-decks there are quarters for 160 second-class passengers.

DOES THE WEATHER MAKE US DRINK MORE OF LESS?

Men who is inter keep their spirits up by pouring spirits down will in summer drink be- cause they are thirsty. It is only those who like Cassio have very poor and unhappy brains for drinking that come into collision with the guardians of public order.

THERAPION
This succesful and highly popular remedy, as employed in the Continenta. Hospitals by Ricord, Kastan, Jobert, Velpeau, and others, combifies all the desiderata to be sought in a medicine of the kind, and surpasses everything hitherto employed,
.
THERAPION No. 1, in a few days only, removes all discharges from the urinary organs, effectually superseding injections, the use of which does irreparable harm by laying the foundation of stricture and other serious dia. cases. In dysentery, piles, irritation of the lower bowel, cough, bronchitis, asthma, and some of the more trying complaints of this kind, it will be found astonishingly efficacious, affording prompt relief where other well-tried remedies Eave been powerless.
THERAPION No z for impurity of the blood, scurvy, pimples, spots, blatches, pains and swellings of the joints, secondary symp. come, disease of the hones, sore throat, and all dispases for which it has been too much fashion to employ mercury, sarsaparilla, &c.; to the destruction of the sufferer's teeth and ruis of health. This preparation purifies the whole system through the blood," and throughly eliminates every poisoned matter from the body,
THERAPION No. 3, for nervous exhaustion, waste of vitality, and all the distressing con sequences arising frout early, errpp. excess, residence in hot, unhealthy climates, &c. It posseses surprising power in restoring strength, and vigour to the debilitated,"
