During tho recent storm In tho Sierra Nevada mountain, two feet of snow fell on tho Central Paclflc railroad. This Is prob ably tho last snow storm of tho season. Trains havo runontlmo all winter, proving that tho road can bo kept open tho entlro year. A long and animated debate In tho Hun garian parliament has terminated In the House voting, by n largo majority, In favor of a proposition for tlio establishment of a professorship of huncoopatliy in tlio Uni versity of l'ctth, and of another for tho foundation of a homoeopathic hospital in connection therewith.

Ho leaves this spring to enter upon tho work, and will bo accompa nied by four assistants. A freight train going east on tlio Now York Central railroad was thrown from the track near Rochester on Frlda-, lOlli Inst., by a broken shaft, and n freight train from tho cast ran into tho wreck, killing forty or fifty head of cattlo and smashing tho en gine. Sam Gilford, tlio engineer, was seri ously injured, as also was a boy. A serious tiro occurred at Nashua, N. H., on Sunday night, 17th Inst., breaking out in tho belfry of tho First Congregation al Church, about 10 o'clock.

It Is over SO days hlnco tho steamship City of Boston sailed for Europe. That sho wns crushed by an Iceburg can hardly bo doubted.

All tho train men except tlio brakemcn got on to tho cn- gino mid ran to tho next station. After they left tlio Indians broko open a number of cars. Tlio brnkemen fired upon thorn a low times and thoy loll. Tho western bound passenger train was delayed C hours wait ing for tho wreck to bo cleared. Gov. Stovenson of Kentucky has Just pardonod a northern man from tho pciilten tlary, who had been sentenced to 17 years' Imprisonment for negro stealing. Ho was convicted in 1SG3, and had, therefore, served about 7 years of tho term of sentence. Tho Loulsvillo Journal, In commenting upon this event, remarks that "tills may bo set down as the last of the Immediate conse quences of slavery in Kentucky." It is ono of tho first of tlio 15th amendment. Tho Mormons liavo presented a curious memorial to Congress against the proposed legislation on polygamy. Thoy assert that they liavo reclaimed tho desert waste, culti vated It, subdued tho Indians, niado roads, built cities, towns and settlements, estab lished government, encouraged education, and founded a new Stato. Thon thoy do clare, "Wo, the peoplo who liavo done this, nro bcllovers In tlio principles of plural marriage or polygamy, not simply us an el evating social relationship and u proventWo of many terrible ovlls which allllct our race, but as a principle rovoaled by Ood, under lying our overy hope of eternal salvation mid happiness in heaven." Tlio memorial concludes by appealing to Congress in tho name of humanity to send a commission of inquiry to tlio Territory beforo legislating. Births and deaths in Massachusetts for tho year 1608 show n considerable increase over tho previous year, but tho marriages wore 505 loss. The Uoathaeworo 2831 great er, le!ng 25,003 in IMS; and tho incroaso is chlcily duo to tho mortality among children, which again Is largely duo to tho wretched homos of tho city poor. Tlicro wore 30,193 births, which Is tlio largost number over roportod in Massachusetts, wo liollovo. Tho number of Illegitimate births Is also larger than over before given, though probably two-thirds of thoso are never reportod. Tlicro wero but 13,855 couplos marrlod, which Is less than for tho last two years, but moro than in any year before 1M0. Tlio largest number of deaths recorded was In 1804, when tho war brought It up to 28,723. A mass meeting has been held by the merchants of Chicago, to consider the sub ject of taxation and national reform, tlio re sult of which was the adoption of resol utlons which call upon Congress to take stopH for a reduction of at least 50,000,000 in the rules or taxation. They urge that In tho present depressed state of all kinds of business it ' Is unwlsfl and unjust to contlnuopaylngtho principal of tho public debt at the rato of seven millions a month. This generation has done Its share of tho work for tlioinain tonanco of the Union, aud may fairly leave t j posterity a portion of tho burden of the debt Incurred for thcTr benefit, not less than r own. And bosldcs, what is n burden day will conso to bo foil 20 with tho Increased resources of tho country to moot it, tho uoht must bo paid, and no body among honest men dares to talk of repudiation but thoro is no need of grind ing tlio notes of tho people to pay it at onco. jemw. Tho Stato of Iowa is ono of tho host In tho Union. Its location Is favorable, lis soil and ellmato aro good, and its natural re sources aro abundant. Its wealth and pop ulation liavo Increased In n rapid manner, Ita government shows capacity and wis dom, and Its legislation evinces an enter prising and progressive spirit. Tho Gen eral Assembly havo recently passed an act for the government of tho Stato University at Iowa City, in which it Is stated that tlio objects of tho university shall bo to provide tho best and most cfllcicnt means of im parting to young men and women on equal terms n liberal education nnd thorough knowledgo of tho dllfcrent brandies of lit erature, tho arts and sciences with their varied applications. Tho General Assembly liavo nlso estab lished a Board of Immigration, of which tho Governor is, ex-ofllclo, president, and appoints ono member from cacii congres sional district, and theso constituto tho board. Tho duty of tills board is to do oil and everything which may and will en hance nnd encourago liumiprrjlon Inii tho cither fi llCIast Tfu a net lias 8a9aManWnireet a stato house at 1)03 Moines that shall bo a credit to that young and growing city and an honor to tho State. Wo find, also, by looking over a few numbers of tho Regis ter, printed at tho capital, that several acts havo been recently passed by tho Goncral Assembly which show in a very conclusive manner that tho citizens of Iowa nro nn In telligent, enterprising, sagacious and pro gressive people, not confined to tho ruts of old customs, not afraid to striko out Into new paths, but ready to adopt measures that aro Just and right, and which promlso to benefit tlio Stato. In Iowa, also, public opinion In favor of woman's sum-ago sooms to bo farthor ad vanced than In most, perhaps all, tho other Slates, and it would not bo surprising if it should tako tho lead of tho other States In that great reform of tho day. Vermont and Massachusetts must bestir themselves, or tlfcy will find themselves loll behind In tho march of Improvement by this new nnd rising Stato, and what is moro, they will una, porhaps when too late, that their most enterprising, liberty-loving and Intelligent young men will remove to a placo more congenial to their aspirations, nnd their young women will loavo oven their homos, whoro tho doors of universities aro closed against thorn, for nn abodo where thoy can enjoy equal privileges nnd rights with tlio other sex. New England has dono nnd Is doing a great and good work for tho now states and territories in sending thither her best and most enterprising young peoplo; let her do a good work lor hereclf in taking tho lead in all reformatory nnd progressive movements. CO.YG It HSXM O.V.I L. Tho bill submitted to tho Congressional Commlttco of Ways and Means by Gon. Butler, to establish a reciprocity with Prlnco Edward Island, Is n most important one. It provides for a very low duty uiku tho products of that island, conditional up on the lixing of small duties upon tho product and matiuftictnres of tho United' Stalos seeking a market there. It Is under stood that tho authorities of Princo Edward Island and also of Now Foundland nro in favor of such an arrangement, which can bo circcled, It Is believed, by legislation, and without a treaty with any power. Tho House committee on education liavo reported a bill to establish a system of na- tlonal education. It authorizes tho Presi dent, with tho consent of tho Senate, to op- point a school superintendent for each State, with Inspectors anil local supcriii tendents, and provides for tho establish ment and supervision of district schools. Tho machinery of the bill is in tho hands of tho Secretary of tho Interior and Commis sioner of Education, and an annual report Is to bo laid boforo Congress by tho Inst named officer. Tho bill lovics a direct tax. in accordance with tho provisions of the Constitution, and declares that the money raisod in each Stato under this act, shall be oxpended therein for purpc-osof education. Tho last section provide that llio require ments of all preceding sections shall be considered satisfied with respect to any Stato, whenever It is proved to the satisfac tion ol tho President that there Is establish ed In said Stato a system of common schools which provides reasonably for all children therein, who dwell where tho population is sufllcicnlly denso to euablo schools to bo maintained. Tho bill cannot bo hold as applying to any Northern Stalo, for tho reason that all of them liavo good common school systems. Consideration of tlio bill Is postponed till next December, when tho committee will press it to a vote. If Tenn essee and oilier Southern States do not fancy tlio payment of this direct tax nnd governmental interference with education al matters, tholr way of relief is to loso no tlmo in establishing n good common school system by Stalo action. Charles Sumner is turning his nltentlon to tlio sufferings of tho bruto creation and lias introduced a resolution Into tho Senate looking toward tlio enactment of u law rog nlntlnir tho transportation of cattlo by rail road oompanlos. Thoro la ncod enough of sucli a law, as everybody knows, not only bocauso much unnecessary suffering is .caused to animals thus transported, but for tho roason that tho meat from these animals is thus rendored less fit for food. Tho states havo trloJ, soino of them, to remedy tho evil complained of, but without much success. I f wo can havo a national law, ap plicable to nil ralhoad companies, it may do somo good. The record of finished business in tho na tional legislature is meager. Tho discus sion on tlio Georgia bill in tho Senate, and tlio consideration of tho tariff in tho House havo formod tho staplo topics of discussion, though tho matter gavo way on Tuesday and Wednesday for tlio contested election cases, many of which were awaiting action. Tho anti-polygamy bill of Mr. Cullom has boon reported to tho Senate, Willi amend ments. Tlio real biisinessoftlioscssion,tho tnxblll, tlio tariff, tho funding bill, Ac., havo not been materially advanced during the week. Even tlio census bill, which should liavo been completed a long time since, still hangs bolwcen the two houses. Tlicro Is n disagreement between tlicin, mainly In re gard to tho patronago conferred, nnd a commlttco of conference alono can sctllo tho difficulty, tie u t'lt.t.viti.Ya fiiivii.i;t:n. Tho subjoct of the franking prlvllogo has Ix-on boforo Congress ; a bill was passod by tho Houso abollslilngllio privilege. In the Scnato nothing dellnlto has yet heon dono.

Hut unlit mti-lt n decision has heon ar rived nt, after full knowledge, I shall not regret nor recall my volo against tlio bill which passed tho House of Itcproscnla-- lives. Til 11. HIT Ol'.IIH 'lilt T1SI.YI1. Wo call It art, for an art it has como to be. There's a groat deal in knowing how to advortlso jndlclously, and how lo ad vorllso economically. Tho following re marks on tho subjoct nro so pertinently to tho point, that wo aro pleased to Insert (hem. They nro from tho Indianapolis Mirror, and nro scnslblo nnd sound: Tho advantages of advertising nro gen erally conceded by business men. They all recognlzo tlio power of prinlor's Ink, properly expended In building up fortunes. Hut advertising must bo Judiciously dono, and through a proper medium, or else It is money thrown away. Tho first requisite Is n medium, and thoro Is no medium so good as a newspaper of largo nnd general circulation. Business men, who spend thousands of dollars In experimenting with directory advertising, nnd map adver tising, and advertising in newspapers for gratuitous distribution, sooner or later find Hint they havo been swindled. Peoplo roa son, very correctly, that n paper which can bo given nwny Is not worth reading, nnd tho publishers of such papers, although they may ngrco to dlstrlbuto fivo thousand copies, nro usually sensltlvo to tho prlco of whllo paper, nnd content themselves with printing II vo hundred instead of live thous and copies, which aro scattered in bunches about tlio saloons and hotels, and nre found useful only for cigar lighters. Directory advertising is cqally as fool ish. Tlio directory lacks tlio ono essential clement of an advertising medium life. A stranger at a hotel, or a citizen, may pick up a directory to ascertain tho residenco of nn acquaintance, but ho religiously, and with tho Instinct of sclf-prcscrvatlon avoids reading any of tho numerous advertise ments scattered through its pages; or, if by chanco taken unawares, ho reads that Jeremy Dlddlor sells groceries at No. 04 Hwlndlo street, tha-tilr-n lmmrwllll ri-- sents itself that Diddier is a great ass or ho would not havo been caught by a directory publisher, or that tho thing having been published six months since, Dlddlor may liavo been sent to the penitentiary, or at least havo moved into tho noxt street. If lie wants to know nnythlngabout the busi ness of tlio place, ho picks up a livo news paper, and scans its advertising columns. That directory advcitislng still lives is no proof of Its utility. Tho same men rarely advertiso twice, and fresh victims nro re quired lo keep up the delusion. A smooth, tongney canvasser, not at all scrupulous in tho inatler of lying, can set up a board at tho cast end of hlto Illver Bridge, nnd pcrsuadosonio business men to pay round ly for the prlvllogo of having their names palmed on It, whllo nt tho samo tlmo they could not bo prevailed upon fo advertiso their business in n paper which is read by all classes. Fainting tlio advertiser's namo and bus! ness on dead walls, sides of stables, and fences, Is another favorito modo of adver tising with somo peoplo, but wo havo dis trusted Its remunerative qualities, Peoplo aro apt to tako umbrngo at it, o remem ber somo years ago to havo seen an Injunc tion to patronize) a particular insuranco company of the "mutual' variety, painted on tho head of a water hogshead used in laying tho dust of Washington street ; but It Is also n matter of painful record that, In a few inpnths, both tho company and the advertising medium "busted." Advertising ill publications which nd dress themselves specially to a peculiar trado or profession is a good way to sow without reaping. For Instance, n paper devoted -to tho interests of tho legal profes sion, whllo It might bo a good medium for advertising law books, would not bo good to advortlso groceries, dry goods or other articles of general consumption. And es pecially would It bo a foolish investment for a lawyer to advertiso ids business in such a Journal. Ho could not expect to find clients among thoprofession, and none othor would subscribo for and read a legal journal. So, also, a medical Journal might bo a good medium fnran Instrument mak er or druggist to advertiso his business in, but would not bo good for the milliner, tho shoemaker, tho dry goods man, or tho grocer, because Its circulation is limited to a class. And if a Journal should bo estab lished In tho interests of shoemakers, would it not bo folly for shoemakers to advertiso In It with tho expectation of increaslug their business 1 .1 Judicial Opinion en I he ll'eiiiitii fMorie-H. Wo havo at last an opinion on (ho woman, question which Is entitled to weight, bo causo founded on actual oxperionco. Beforo such tests nil opposition to tho enlargement of tho sphere of woman's usefulness and helpfulness drops to tlio ground. When a woman proves her ability by doing what sho claims sho can do, tho discussion and tho argument aro ended, It Is n severe test, but it is tho ouo which, in tho nature of things, will bo applied to all phases of tlio woman question. When a woman proves that sho Is an ablo lawyer, a skilful physi cian, nn eloquent preacher, a great artist, or a wlso legislator, all tho cynics In tho land cannot sncor hor down. Out In Wyoming, ns our roadcrs may know, tills tost has recently been applied in tlio ensa of woman serving nsjurors.

Tho sevoro rain storm of Monday night lart has greatly swollen the Connecticut river nnd its tributaries. Tho West rlvor Is high nnd tho Asylum meadows nro ox tonslvely flooded. Tho river overflowed a portion of tho "Island" nnd for a tlmo hin dered crossing it by tho road.

Much troublo and delay, and no little risk of human life, has boon occasioned on tho Vermont Valloy Railroad, this spring, by the sinking of tho track at a point a short distance north of Putney dopot, Tho difficulty was caused by tho high water In tho Connecticut, which has submerged tho meadows to a considerable extent. Tem porary repairs hnvo been made, so that trains now run over tho road, but anything liko a thorough roimlrlng is out of the quostlon till the water subsides. Wo loam that a room over tho store occupied by K. O. Slnionds A Co. nnd E. J.

"No deslro for tho ballot" Is tho heading of an nrtlclo In tho Vermont Journal of April 0th, In which tlio writer takes tho broad ground that it Is a concluslvo reason for rejecting tho projiosccl amendment of Iho Vermont Constitution giving women tho right to voto, becauso "sho has not ask ed or manlfoslcd any deslro for tlio ballot." Ho says, "Lot It not bo said that tho wishes of Vermont women on this question nro not known. They aro known Just as satis factorily ns If n formal voto had been taken. In nlncty-nlno cases oftho hundred homes whoro they dwell, thoy havo already ex pressed their rcpugnauco to being dragged boforo tho public by theso meddlesome re formers." AVho nro'"thoso mcddlcsomo reformers" of which ho spenks? AVo aro discussing tho pi oprlcty of adopting un amendment to our Stato constitution, proposed and rec ommended for tho consideration of tlio peoplo, by a Council of Consors chosen by tlio legal votors of tho State, to recommend such alterations nnd amendments, ns In their Judgment the good of the Stato, and tho present condition of tho peoplo require. Aro theso "tlio meddlesomo reformers" that havo "dragged" tho women of Vcr- o public agalnsUhelr wish- rtlon, or even a majority do not deslro tho bal- t; of course thoy wont voto unless thoy deslro it, If freo play is given lo tho exorcise of tholr own Judgment. AA o need have no roars ol troublo by giving them tho right to voto, If wo know thoy do not desire to cxcrclso Hint right. It is by no manner or means that wo wish them "ilrng. gcd" bcroro tho public against their wish es, that wo advocate giving them the right or ballot, but simply to glvo them the right to acl llicir own Judgment in taking part in tho political destinies of the State. Nei ther men or women aro apt to complain or too many rights or privileges. Tho policy of a freo government Is to extend anil pro tect the llborty of conscicnco and tho freo cxcrclso or tho Judgment Or Its people. AA'lionovcr wo restrict or abridgo by nn or ganic law, tho full and freo oxerclse of Judgment In any or tho legltlmalo citizens or tho State, wo so far depart rrom tho pri mary principle on which our government is rounded. And wo cannot, wo daro not bollovo tho voters or Vermont will so far depart from tho humane and patriot course they liavo hitherto pursued In extending tho rights or citizens and the right of suf frage to all classes and all races, as to am- llrarliy closo tho gates against the rights of ono half our own citizens, who are every way their equals In patriotism and intelli gence, to thofrcoexorelsoof their own con science ns to tho uso of the ballot, by rea son of sex. A largo majority of our public schools are taught by female, and It is universally conceded that they nro better adapted than males, for tlio most Important or all posi tions In a rrco government, teachers of com mon schools. Is not ono great object of public schools to train the youth of our Stalo to active dutlos or life, to fit and pre pare them for tho responsibilities thoy must soon assumo of shaping and preserv ing tho destinies of tho commonwealth. Ono Important object of a system of public education, is tho universal dissemination of political science. Tho thoory and prac tical working of a republican form or gov ernment should bo Instilled Into the mind of overy pupil In tho Stato. AV'ould not tho opjHjncnts of the contemplated amend ment consider It an absurd idea to teach boys In a common school tlio scleuco and principles of government, and withhold It from girls In tho same school? And would It not bo still more absurd to Instruct both alike, and when thoy becomo of law ful ago to assumo tho duties and rcsKnsl bllltics or citizens, to glvo ono civil and po litical rights, and deprlvo tho other 'of the samo rights by a provision of tho Stato constitution? It is usclesi to educate any class of citizens unless wo give them tho right to avail themselves of tho benefits or that education. Tho Journal closes its article as follows : "AS'ell may tho men or Vermont bo con tent not to force tlio ballot upon women who repel It with all tlio instincts of their nature, and all tho convictions of their heart, In llio light of education and relig ion." Wo will go with tho Journal man in not forcing tho ballot upon women who repel It with such horror as ho dcsrlbcs, and generously ask him logo wltii us in providing a w ay whereby thoso w ho do not repel tho ballot, but publicly and avowed ly express a deslro for Us privileges, can bo allowed the full and rrco cxcrclso of their judgment In tho matter. Tho assertion, either directly or indirect ly, that in "nlucty-niuo cases out of the hundred," Vermont women havo express ed tholr "utter rcpugnauco" to llio consti tutional right or suffrage, is a wild assump tion and a gross pervorslou of tacts. Havo tho womon, many of thorn, mado any pub lic demonstration against it? Has there been any remonstrance started by them by petition or otherwise? Could tho question of tho amendment In relation th tho right of sull'rago bo fairly put to tho womon of A'erniont today, a largo majority would un questionably go for it. But if they are made to bellove It is what tho Journal rep resents it to be, forcing tlio ballot upon them against tholr wishes, it is not straugo that they "repel It." AVero there any log ical basis for an argument, consistent with tho theory or our government, tho oppo nents ot the amendment would have no occasion to -misrepresent the real issue. They nrguo as though it was a compulsory edict, and If adopted tho women would be compelled to vole. Nothing could be more llliroaaonablo. To lisvo tho ballot farced uikmi women, and to allow tho the right of sull'rago witli no other restrictions than the law imposos mi mon, nro us widely differ ent ns forco and freedom can be. AA'oincn lovo liberty as well as men, and If, as our friend of tho Journal says, they aro inlol llgont enough to havo "just opinions on this subject," why need wo foar that thoy will add to their "ulroady heavy burdens," by mounting tho platform and mixing in tho striros ol inalo competitors for flvil of fice?" Thoso over sonslllto, would-be lords, whoso flow of crooodllo tears for the fato of Vermont women who may bo ltd astray by what our friend Is plcasod to call "this flattering movement or hair-brained philanthropy," entirely mistake tho ten dency or tlio ago. Nothing Is moro cer tain than that womon, at no distant day will bo allowed to oxerciso the samo civil and political privileges as men. Aud fas tidious old regies may allay their fears ; tho. swelling tide of public opinion upou this subject is gaining resistless force, and the women who form an equally import ant hslfof clvllizod society with man, luve declared as they should under our form of government, that justlco aud tho acknowl edged principles embodied lu the Declara tion of Independence, demand that a con stitutional right of franchise should bo al lowed them. They constituto fully an equal share of the moving power of tho present ago; they are allvo to tho duties of tho hour, and their foronslo powers aro be ing moro aud moro appreciated. The world moves and tho intelligence and "Just opinions" of llio women tlicmsplvns will SCtllo tho matter of sulfrsira all rlnht. nnlv glvo thorn tho prlvllogo or acting lu ac cordance wllh tholr own judgment. II. Oorrctpondcncc of the T'ermont l'hccnlx. i.tSTTim nto.it rj.oiuv.i, Jacksonville, Fi.a., April 4, 1870. Today, for tho first tlmo In llio history uf this city, tho municipal election has bocn carried by tho Republican party. Captain Potor Jones who, during two yours oftho rebellion, carried, In tho vessel ho com manded, munitions of war for Union troops, meanwhile suffering frequent bom bardment from rebel batteries was elected mayor of tills city, April 4, 1870. But why is it that wo hear such news of tho elections In Hartford, Now Haven and New York? Standing, as theso cities havo ever stood, In tho blazing light of freedom, why Is It that tho elections show a determination to sus tain tho rotten carcass of repudiation, na tional dishonor and tlio dark nges? Tho answer comes from tho pig-headed clement dominant In thoso cities from which may uod deliver tho South. "Air wud ycr havo yer dawter marry a Nagur?" -Notwithstanding old prejudices nnd op position to the spirit of tho ago goncratcd during the long, dark night of slavery, tlio causo of the truo and the right Is moro Hopeful hero than In New York. Freedom Is now gaining victories hero as Impor ant as any yet galnod by shot and shell on DlooUy fields. Tho JSouthern mind has been slow and reluctant to receivo tlio truth na taught by "tho great Jehovah and Continental Congress" -wu nlBn ono hun dred years ago, and tlirco generations hs gono down to the dust lu ipparenl Igno ranco or Indifference to tho sentiments contained in tho declaration of '70. The first freo school In this city, attended by white children, commenced in Decem ber, mo. There w much opposition, nnd but two or thrco scholars Ucn..i the first week, but now, wo learn, ovor ouo hun dred children attend this school, Tl o large school houso erected hero by govern niont for tho education of tlio freedincn, is well filled every Sabbath afternoon by colored children and ladles and gentlemen from abroad. Tlio meetings commence at two o'clock, P. M. Several hundred children aro hero Instructed, on the Sabbath, mainly by northern visitors. Theso children glvo ovldcnco that thoy aro making rapid prog ress. At one or llicso sessions tiio superin tendent, Mr. Coan, said: "Can any or these girls or boys reclto a verso rrom Scripture containing tho word mother?" Moro than a dozen volunteers. Somo or not over ten years raised their hand", and each recited, separately, a different passage containing the word. Several othor words wero given out by the superintendent with the same result. After singing and other exercise", which would bo considered creditable per Tormances by children of equal ages any where or of any color, visitors were invited to address tho children or nsk them ques tions. Professional gentlemen from Mas sachusetts, New York, etc., accepted tlio invitation. Every Sabliath there is a new set of speakers, who have coino from vari ous parts of the Union. Tho varied cul ture, stylo and sentiments of tho speakers render this department of tho exorcises at tractive, exceedingly pleasant and Instruc! tlve. Ono of tho votcran editors of tlio New York Tribune, Solon Robinson, E-q., is greatly Interestod in these oflurU In be half of tho colored children. His lull, Von craldo form, long white flowing hair aud piercing eye, can always bo sccu on theso occasions. Ills exhortations and sugges tions glvo evidence of much thought and commendable feeling In relation to this matter. n. JLofr .IYm-i llemt. Bismarck Is very sick.
