Ttey say that Bryant and Conley, the two
s of rival Radical factions in this State,
Ud quite a stormy time of it together at the
Kadical county convention in Atlanta Thurs
day morning. Their conduct was very un
becoming of brethren who should live to-
(Tcthcr cn i T in sweet and pleasant unity. The
♦rouble Is that Bryant is a Blaine man, while
Conley is for Sherman.
The Athens Banner reports that on Wed
nesday evening last there fell at and around
Maxeys
bail
=, Oglethorpe county, the largest
ones ever before seen in that section
ntry. The Banner says: “It hailed for
about fifteen minutes, commencing about
3 o’clock p. m., after which a number of
stones were picked up measuring fully
twelve inches in circumference. One stone
^ exhibited at Maxeys which had been
brought three miles, and which then meas
ured nine inches in circumference. Wt
have cot learned the amount of damage
dene, but as the hail fell without the slight
est wind, and much like a snow storm, we
gujr.ose it was comparatively light.”
A fearful stroke of lightning tore a large
oak in Athens to atoms on Tuesday after
noou last. The force of the electric fluid
was so great that it hurled a large piece of
the tree a considerable distance over the
residence of Rev. R. W. Bigham. Several
of Mr. Blgham’s children were on the piazza
at the time, and the piece of wood passed
over their head?, and entering the house
buried itself in the wall. Fortunately no
one was hurt, but Mrs. Bigham and her
daughter w ere badly shocked, and the latter
i- now suffering from extreme nervous pros
tration.
Dougherty county, says the Albany News,
can boast of quite a number of intelligent,
progressive colored men, who are gradually
acquiring wealth and establishing them
selves on a firm basis. One of these is Mar
shall Merritt, who was a few years ago a
common field hand. By economy, industry
and perseverance he has succeeded in buy
ing and paying for a plantation in East
D-jugherty, and is running it himself this
year. Instances like this, though rare in
that section at present, are becoming quite
frequent, and the News is at all times glad
to note such evidences of progress and in-
du-try among its colored citizens.
The Elberton News is not afraid of the
Railroad Commission. It says that the stock
of the Elberton Air-Line Railroad Company
is now worth twenty cents in Atlanta, but
It predicts that in less than three years it
will sell for at least three times that amount.
Brunswick is evidently booming. An opera
house is now being contemplated for that
town.
The Irwinton Appeal says that Fred Lark,
the notorious negro convict and jail breaker,
who was confined in jail at that place, raan-
agtd on Saturday morniDg last to break
his manacles, and came very near making a
successful escape. lie bad broken his chain
into small pieces, and these he had wrapped
first in an old piece of blanket, then In a
large handkerchief, thus providing himself
with a rather dangerous slung 6hot,and when
Sheriff Wright opened the cell door to see
that he was securely confined, as well a? to
give him his breakfast, Lark struck him
several blows over the head with his impro
vised weapon, and made a dash for liberty.
Sheriff Wright was not much hurt, and at
once gave chase. 8everal gentlemen were
on the streets at the time, and they immedi
ately joined in the race, -which proved to be
a lively one. Finally, however, Lai k was
captured, and now he is confined in a man
ner which will make it exceedingly difficult
to again get loose.
The Macon Telegraph says the Ocmulgee
Farmers’ Club, composed of intelligent citi
zens of Bibb aud Monroe counties, have
forwarded a strong petition, numerously
signed, to Hon. J. II. Blount, Congressional
representative, requesting him to secure the
establishment of a post office at the club
rooms, to be called “Riverside,” and to be
supplied with the mails daily, or at least tri
weekly.
The Atlanta Ibst is of the opinion that
the Georgia Western scheme was made use
of by a few railroad stock speculators and
bulldozers as long as it was possible to in
fluence the stock market in their favor, and
now it has been dropped. It says: “The
duped Aflanta public are now assured that
they will have cheap coal by reason of au
agreement on the part of the railroad syn
dicate to lower the rates on coal.”
We learn from the Covington Fjiterprise
that within sight of that town there are
stiil visible signs of nn old Indian encamp
ment. Stone axes, bhovd?. morlars, ham
mers, and other articles useu *»y the red
men, have been found on the spot.
The Quitman Reporter reports a very
strange case. Joshua Garnakey, formerly a
mulatto man of that place, was taken sick
a few years ago, since which time he has
gradually been growing white until now
two-thirds of his skin is as white as that of
the fairest Caucasian. He is utterly unable
to account for this metamorphosis.
The Times rears that the Albany ice fac
tory will not be built this season. It hopes
that by summer after next, however, it will
he in operation. The News also wants a
new hotel.
A body, supposed to be that of James
McGecver, one of the Irish youths who was
murdered in Russell county and thrown in
the Chattahoochee river 6ome time since,
discovered about two weeks ago and

The North Georgia Citizen states that on

demolished and scattered in every direction.
Many persons were seriously injured, and
one, a Mrs. Buff, was killed. The people
who were in the track of the storm or cy
clone, says the Citizen, which was about a
mile wide, are in greatly distressed circum
stances. Many of them are wounded, their
houses., furniture and bedding destroyed,
and their provisions ruined and lost. In
one instance a man’s smoke house was
blown down and his meat, several hundred
pounds, was blown away and not a vestige
of it has he been able to find. A gentleman
from that neighborhood informs us that the
destruction is complete and wonderful. He
6tates that there seemed to be two opposing
currents of wind, one passing from west to
east., carrying everything before it, and the
other from east to west, the two tracks of
destruction being plainly discernible by the
large fallen forest trees.”
A good many journalistic changes have
been recently made in, this State. In Its
last issue the Perry Home Journal announces
the retirement from it? editorial chair of Mr.
Edwin Martin, and hi6 succession by Mr.
John H. Hodges.
A cyclone passed over the southwestern
portion of Washington county la6t Sunday
afternoon. It was about half a mile
in width, and levelled houses, fences
and trees in its track. The storm is de"
scribed by an eye-witness as having been
fearful to behold.
The Indian Springs Argus say®; “A North
Georgia woman heard a sermon last week
on hell, aud the preacher’s vivid description
of eternal torture greatly frightened her.
She brooded over tbe subject several days,
then became possessed of the idea that she
bad committed the unpardonable 6in, and
finally Rank into incurable lunacy.”
Says the Hawkinsville Dispatch: “There
is In this section general complaint of rust
In the oat crop. The noted Irwin rustproof
variety has not sustained its reputation this
season. The oat crop in Irwin county, the
native soil of these popular oats, is reported
greatly damaged by rust, and the yield will
be small. Some of the old farmers say that
such a di-aster has not befallen the oat
crop of that section before within the last
tweuty years. They attribute It to tbe warm
winter and the scarcity of rain. Some think
it is not the rust, but a kind of mold occa
sioned by the past remarkable winter.”
Says the Dublin Post: “On last Thursday
afternoon about 4 o’clock, a shooting affray
occurred in front of Nance’s bar room.
Two carpenters, from parts unknown, Ran
som and Wrye, it seems, had been gambling
the night before aud one of them had won
the other’s watch and money. The next
morniug the uulucky knight of the card
table, augered at his failure at gambling,
decided to see what virtue there was in law,
and had bis more fortunate partner in
j crime arrested. Later in the day, however,
they ‘made it up’ and ‘went on a spree’ to
gether. At about 4 p. m. they fell out again,
drew their pistols and exchanged 6hots-r-
liansom shooting W T rye once, aDd Wrye get
ting in three at Ransom. Wrye was not
hurt. Ransom seems to have been struck
twice, but refuses to be Interviewed defi
nitely on the subject. The whole affair is
involved in a good deal of mystery. They
have both left the county.”
Dalton Citizen: “Suuday morning it was
discovered that the four prisoners confined
in the county jail had succeeded in making
their escape, aud upon examination it was
found that one of the Iron bars had been
sawed or filed in tw ain. It is supposed that
duriDg the storm of the night before the
prisoners were then trying to effect an es
cape, while the loud peals of thunder
drowned the noise that might have been oc
casioned by their work. How they obtained
possession of the tools to work with is not
known, but it is certain that some one was
instrumental in effecting their release. It
is also conjectured that they weut in the di
rection of Walker county, and made all
has’e into Alabama. There were three white
men and one negro. The negro, we learn,
has siuce returned and given himself up to
the authorities.”
The Talbot correspondent of the Butler
Herald writes that paper as follows: “It
will be remembered that about two years
ego, while Mr. D. A. J. Willis, of Davi6ton,
wa9 attending tbe Butler camp meeting, hi6
house was entered and therefrom a little
tin box, containing land deeds, other valu
able papers, and several dollars in money,
were stolen. The affair remained a com
plete mystery until the other day, a young
man in the neighborhood, while walking
through an old field,stepped on a soft place
in the ground, ana on lifting his foot
heard a noise made by the springing of the
lid of the box. Inquiry revealed the box
with its contents unharmed, except that tbe
money was gone. Mr. Willis bas been at
much trouble and expense in establishing
the deeds, thinking them lost.”
Says the Albany News in regard to the
Railroad Commission: “What tbe people
of Georgia desired and expected from the
Railroad Commission was not so much a
reduction in the rate of freight as a preven
tion of the unjust discriminations which the
roads had been practicing In favor of one
section over another. There was no great
complaint against the rate of transportation,
and we are of the opinion that the old rate
would be perfectly satisfactory to tbe people
everywhere, provided it was 60 regulated as
to act justly on all points and prevent unfair
discriminations. The tariff adopted by tbe
commission is declared by all experts to be
too low for the roads to be run at any profit,
jf such is the case the Commission should
certainly increase it, takiDg care that it be
regulated so as to do equal justice to all
sections and prevent the 'iiscriminationa 60
much complained of.”
Bays the Sandersville Herald: “Mr. Wm.
B. Wartheo, residing about seven miles
from Saudersville, wa3 found dead on Mon
day morning under a gin house belonging to
Mr. J. F. Sheppard. On Suuday afternoon
he had gone over to a neighbor’s, Mr. R. P.
Bynum, and left for his home, when it is
supposed that he hurried to the gin house
to shelter himself from the weather. No
marks of violence were found on his person
that would lead to the belief that bis death
may have been caused by lightning or fall
ing timbers. Coroner J. W. Layton held an
inquest on Monday oyer the body, and the
verdict of the jury was that the deceased
came to his death by tbe act of God. It is
the opinion, we learn, of Drs. Hollifield and
Mathis that Mr. Warthen probably got wet
when warm from his efforts to get to the
shelter, and in cooling off, congestion may
have ensued, and thus suddenly terminated
his life Mr. Warthen was born and always
lived in this county, he was very highly re
spected as a peaceable, unoffending citizen,
and of great personal integrity. At the
time of hie foa!h he was eighty years of
to
tirothe
age."
Athens Banner: “We mentioned several
days ago the great damage done the Air
],tne Railroad from the heavy rain in the
legion of the Tugalo river, on last Saturday
night. About twelve or thirteen miles of
track were torn up or washed a way, also the
railroad bridge over the Tugalo riVer. This
damage, the Air Line authorities say, will
be remedied In a short while. The travel
and mails over this portion of the line,
which have been temporarily suspended,
will be resumed about tbe last of this week,
the break being so far reduced as to permit
an easy transfer.- Besides the damages
mentioned, we learned on yesterday from
Captain Reuben Nickerson, of this city,
that Young’s mill, about four miles from
Toccoa was totally destroyed, the dam
being broken and the mill house washed
awav In the same neighborhood the mill
dams'of Messrs. Prather and Wheeler were
also destroyed. The mill on Tugalo river,
known as Tugalo or Garrett’s mill, and be
longing tc Messrs. Child, Nickerson & Co.,
of this city, was likewise considerably
damaged, and which la now being rapidly-
repaired. It is said by citizens of this sec
tion that the rain of Saturday night was the
heaviest ever known in that portion of the
country."
The Walton County Vidette thus describps
a lively but Ineffectual chase of a desperate
v>'laln- “One day last week one Charley
Hamilton, a negro who formerly lived at
Joab Hinton’s place, near the Newton conn-
tv line, entered the house of Stephen Cody,
a negro man living near Centerville, and
stole his watch, a fine suit of clothing and
fifteen dollars In money. The robbery was
discovered in about a half hour and a part.y
of a halt dozen men and boys started In
pursuit. They soon came in sight of the
thief and gave chase, only one man in the
party being armed. The thief, boW-
e?ec was well armed, it is • said,
with two revolvers, and during
the chase fired five shots at bis pursuers
Which served to keep them at bay. He
finally struck the river swamp, however,
and eluded bis pursuers by swimming the
riyer several times and dodglag and hiding
in the swamp. Mr. Bowie, of the pursuing
party, however, went ahead of the pursued,
and gave Mr. Paine, watchman of the rail
road bridge, notice to stop the fugitive if be
passed that way, and soon after he left the
negro passed under the bridge oo tte run.
Failing to halt when ordered, Mr. Paine
fired upon him several times from the top
of the bridge, one ahet taking effect In tbe
leg He never halted, however, but
kept going till he reached home in Newton
county—so the party pursuing subsequently
learned. The villain is still at large, and
Mr. Thomas Smith, of the neighbor-
borhood, will soon offer a reward,
we learn, for his apprehension—the negro
having previously threatened his life on ac
count of an old grudge. The villain was
there, when he committed this robbery, for
the purpose of assassinating Mr. Smith, and
was prevented only by the presence of
others In the field where Mr. Smith was at
work—so he has Blnce said to his friends in
Newton county. Let all good citizens assist
in apprehending this villain, for whom no
deed is too dark."
An Atlanta correspondent of the Griffin
Fews says: “Hon. Rufe Lester, President of
the Senate, is having a stronger support
than I had hitherto thought. His long ser
vice In the Senate has made him well known
to the State, and from various sections I am
told of his active supporters who are men
whose friendship and Influence are Wurth
having, and a favorable sign Is, they are tak
ing an active Interest in his behalf. It is
claimed that he will come Into the conven
tion—if he should enter the race—backed
by twenty-five counties from his section,
which is a very comfortable ‘nest egg’ in
Buch a contest. But I have, as yet, seen no
reason to change the opinion expressed in a
former letter, that Governor Colquitt is by
far, up to this time, the strongest mau in
the campaign now being Inaugurated.”
Drinks for the Sick.
In speaking of the annoying thirst of
fever patients, Dr. H. H. Kane in his
Sick Room says:
Thirst is a very prominent and annoy
ing symptom of fever, and one that re
quires a little consideration. Plain water,
when taken beyond a certain amount, is
very apt to disorder the stomach and
bowelsh especially in fevers where much
fluid and but little solid food is taken.
Enough water to quench the thirst would
certainly be enough in most cases to
disorder digestion, or rather, further dis
order it, and so important is the little
that remains of this function that we
cannot afford to abuse it. Small pieces
of ice held in the mouth, and allowed to
dissolve, sometimes answer the purpose,
but not in the majority of cases. Up to
a certain point, the action of water taken
internally, in fevers, is excellent; aside
from allaying irritation by quenching
thirst, it flushes the kidneys, carrying off
much of the effete material produced by
the high temperature. It has been found
that the addition of certain substances to
water greatly increases its power to
quench thirst. This is especially the case
withacids. One drachm of hydrochloric
acid added to a quart of water will give
it sufficient acidity to accomplish the
desired purpose, while at the same time,
it adds to its pleasantness, aud sometimes
relieves nausea. The use of acids in
fevers is highly commended by some
authors, and this is, I think, the best way
in which to administer them. The same
amount of sulphurous acid may be added
to a quart of water when the bowels are
loose or there is a tendency that way. In
these cases acidulated barley water is
pleasant and nourishing. The same may
be said of toast water. In constipation,
oatmeal water may be used in the same
manner. A few tamarinds added to a
glass of water will often assuage thirst
and open the bowels gently.
Dr. Ringer, speaking on this subject,
says: “Although, perhaps, not strictly
relevant to our present subject, a few re
marks may be made here conveniently on
the drinks best suited to fever patients.
To them, thirst is most important and
distressing, often causing much restless
ness and irritability, those in their turn
often increasing the fever. The urgent
thirst must therefore be allayed, but if
left to themselves to satiate their crav
ing, patients will always driak to excess,
which is very liable to disarrange the
stomach, impair - digestion, produce
flatulence and even diarrhfea. Theory
and experience both show that drinks,
made slightly bitter and somewhat acid,
slake thirst most effectually. A weak
infusion of cascariila or orange peel,
acidulated slightly with hydrochloric
acid, was, with Graves, of Dublin, a
favorite thirst-allayrng drink for fever
patients. Raspberry vinegar is a useful
drink. Sucking ice is very grateful.
Sweet fruits, although at first agreeable
aud refreshing, must be taken with care
aud moderation, for they often give rise
to a disagreeable taste, and are apt to
produce flatulence and diarrlxpa.’’
A Mouse Cure.
Homeopathic Review.
Hitherto there has been no remedy
which could be regarded as specific for
tetanus. At last, however, an ingenious
French phvsician has apparently hit up
on a remedy before which tetanus yields
as readily as toothache yields to the den
tist’s forceps, and which will, of course,
supersede curare and other inferior reme
dies.
The French doctor in question was
called in to attend a lady suffering from
tetanus. In his report he says that she
was a married woman of thirty-one years
of age, and that previous to his visit her
family physician had tried every remedy
for tetanus, including curare, without
producing any effect. The patient was
lying on her back, with her jaws tightly
closed, and the muscles of her chest and
throat were so rigid that she was unable
to utter a sound.
The doctor at once went out and pro-
cured a live moqse of the usuai size aDd
voracity, to the tail of which he attached
a strong horse hair. Placing the mouse
at the foot of the bed, he permitted it to
walk the entire length of the patient's
body. Ho sooner did the patient notice
the mouse, than she sprang up, loudly
calling to the attendants to take it off,
and denouncing the doctor as a horrid,
heartless wretch, who ought to be guillo-
tioned on the spot. There was no recur-
rence of the symptons of tetanus. In
fact, the doctor adds that the lady's jaws
werg so thoroughly and permanently un
locked that t!)0 hqshand, who is, of
course, ignorant of law, has threatened
to begin an action for damages against
him.
Drinking at Bars.
Boston Traveller.
The social habit of drinking at bars,
where each member of a party, having
been “trC? tR d” by another, considers it
necessary to treat evety C'±“T member,
has at last attracted the attention of law
makers. The Iowa Legislature has a
bill before it to abolisli tne custom, and
make it a punishable offense; and al
though such a proposition can never be
come a law, it is significant as showing
public dislike of a custom which no
drinking man wants to be the first to dis
regard. This habit of standing treat is
the cause of more physical and mental
discomfort than every other conven
ial custom combined. A respecta
ble man who feels the need of a glass
of wine or spirits—and there are hun
dreds of thousands of such men, in spile
of all that the temperance people
say to the contrary'—approaches a bar,
and finds, perhaps, several acquaintances
who are drinking and who invite him
to join them. When be has done so,
and drank all he came for, his spirit of
independence prompts him to return the
invitation, which is accepted by the
others because it would seem discourte
ous to refuse; then those who have been
treated make haste to return the compli
ment for fear of seeming mean, aud the
end is that four or five men, each of
whom came for a single glass of liquor,
retire with several times as much as they
needed or wanted.
A New Disease.—A Geneva corres
pondent of the London Times announces
great mortality among the workmen and
horses employed in the St. Gothard Tun-
Del, from the generation of a worm in
the’intestines—the result of the had air
of the tunnel. Thisdisease has increased
wonderfully in the past six months,
as the workmen at either end penetrate
toward the centre, and so get into a worse
atmosphere, further vitiated by perpetual
explosions and the smoke of 500 oil
lamps. The temperature ranges from
80 to 95. Seventy to eighty per cent, of
the men suffer from this complaint, with
an average mortality of about thirty
per cent, per annum. The horses drop
dead as if struck by a bullet, and the
average life of the horse in the tunnel
does not exceed four months. Some of
the Swiss papers challenge these state-
ments of the sat ants as exaggerated, but
their general truth is not denied.

CONGRESSIONAL PROCEEDINGS.
Washington, April 9.—In the 8enate, on
motion of Mr. Cameron, of Pennsylvania,
it was resolved that when the Senate ad
journ to-day, it be to meet on Monday next.
Mr. Logan submitted a resolution direct
ing the Secretary of War to furnish the
Senate with any facts that may be in hit
possession in reference to the recent mu
tilation of one of the cadets at
West Point. Messrs. Eaton and Maxey
thought the resolution premature. Official
investigation of the outrage was known to be
in progress, and the Senate would be able
to get the official report when it should be
made. In accordance with suggestions by
Messrs. Conkling and Hoar, Mr. Logan
modified his resolution so as to request Mr.
Hayes to transmit such information in re
gard to the affair as in his judgment would
not be incompatible with public interests.
Messrs. Voorhees and Bruce supported the
resolution, and commented in severe terms
upon the brutal and inhumau treatment to
which cadets are often subject in West
Point Academy. Messrs. Maxev and Burn
side defended that institution against the
charges made by the firet named Senator,
and thought it best to await the result of
the official investigation now being made of
tbe alleged outrage upon Whittaker before
taking any such action as the resolution
proposed. After some further remarks by
Mr Hoar and others the resolution went
over without action.
Mr. Butler, of South Carolina, presented
a memorial of the Charleston Chamber of
Commerce, endorsing the recommendation
of The New York Chamber of Commerce,
that consular reports be published weekly
and monthly for distribution among the
leading commercial bodies of the United
States. Referred.
At the expiration of the morning hour
the Senate resumed consideration of the
Ute Indian agreement bill. Mr. Vest sup
ported the bill as a practicable step in the
right direction. Mr. Morgan repeated in
substance his former argument against it.
Speeches were also made by Messrs. Teller,
Plumb and others. The amendment of Mr.
Dawes authorizing the President to use ten
thousand dollars of the amount appropriated
!q the Dill for the education of Indian
youths was adopted, as was also the amend
ment proposed by Mr. Morgan that the act
should not be construed so as to compel
any Ute Indian to remove from lands
claimed by him in severalty. After some
further discussion it was agreed that tbe bill
should go over for to-day aud be finally
voted on before adjournment on Monday.
The Senate then went into executive ses
sion, and when the doors were reopened ad
journed until Monday.
In the House fifty or seventy five bills
were reported adversely from the Committee
on War Claims, and laid on the table.
Mr. Newberry, of Michigan, introduced a
bill, prohibiting the transportation of goods
in bond or duty raid, or products or manu
factures of the United States from one port
therein to another, through any foreign
countries bordering, or on the Gulf of
Mexico or Carribean Sea, except as the same
is permitted by the treaties of the United
States with such foreign countries.
The House then went into committee of
the whole on the private calendar. Tbe
pending bill was that for the relief of Madi
son Day, of Louisiana, on account of prop
erty bought by him from tbe United States
with defective title. After debate of two
and a half hours a vote was taken, which
resulted In 72 ayes and 2*2 nays—not a quo
rum. The committee then rose.
Mr. Blount, of Georgia, introduced a bill
for the erection of a public building at Ma
con, Ga. Referred.
The House then adjourned until to
morrow.
PROCEEDINGS OF THE DEMOCRATIC SENATO
RIAL CAUCUS.
Washington, April 9.—The Democratic
Senators this morning held another caucus
meeting on the order of business. The
caucus, after an hour’s discussion, adjourned
until to-morrow without taking any actiou
but the general sentiment to day, as at
yesterday’s meeting, was evidently in
favor of giving precedence to the Geneva
award bill and such appropriation bills as
may be ready for action after it shall have
been disposed of, thus leaving the Spofford
Kellogg case to take Its chances of obtain
ing consideration in the Senate this session
or to go over to the next session, just as the
condition of public business may hereafter
seem to render advisable. Messrs. Jonas
of Louisiana, Hill of Georgia, Sauls-
bury, Vance and Vest, took the
ground to-day that the Spofford-
Kellogg case could not properly be post
poned. They were opposed to any evasion
of the issue, and wanted the Democratic
party to have and show the courage of its
convictions. They insisted that it was plain
Kellogg had no right to a seat,and the majori
ty should not hesitate to seat Judge Spofford.
Mr. Garland spoke in favor of going on
with more important public business. The
Kellogg case was not a pressing matter, and
it should await the action of the Senate
upon the pending appropriation bills and
other necessary ‘general legislation. Sena
tor Thurman also insisted that the Spofford-
liellogg case bqght to be laid aside for the
present. Mr, Jonas said the Democrats of
Louisiana had been misrepresented in the
Senate long enough, and they demanded
their full rights. He added that he would
not answer for Louisiana remaining a Demo
cratic State any longer if the Democrats of
the Senate passed this matter over and left
Kellogg in his seat, and while Senators were
considering the possibility of lo.-iDg
votes by taking up this case, they had
better look at the other side of the
question and consider the imminent danger
of losing a State if they refused to do Lou
isi&na Democrats justice. Senators Hill,
Baulsbury and Vande, of the Elections Com
ir.ittee, held that an investigation of this
case was ordered with the understanding
that it should be disposed of as soon as all
the facts could be learned, and they there
fore thought it would not be treating the
committee rightly to postpone the matter.
They also argued that the investiga
tions of the matter having been entrusted
to the committee, and the labor having
been faithfully performed, the majority of
the SCF®** oustl 1 to stand by the commit
tee's conclusions. Senator Bayard and
some others thereupon remarked that their
understanding was that the t;Otiiinittee wers
to inquire whether or not the case wai res
adjudicata and that the question whether
Mr. Relloerg’s title w§s open to dispute
was thereafter to be determined by the Ben
ate at its convenience and upon its own
judgment. Although, as above stated,
majority of those present at the caucus to
day were evidently in favor of giving other
business precedence over this case, the mi
nority who insist upon Its prompt considera
tion are so urgent that It is still very possi
ble they may carry their point.

FATAL COLLISION.
London, April 9 —The British steamer
Darlta has been sunk by collision on the
river Danube. Eleven passengers and five
of the crew were drowned.
Among the strange freaks of the last
Viennese Carnival has been the adoption
by several of the leading beauties of imi
tation feet and sandals, as accessories to
mythological or classical costumes.
Having indued flesh colored maillots
provided with thin soles, these ladies
committed their delicate extremities to
the manipulation of skilled artists, who
deftly painted thereupon counterfeit
presentments of toes, sandals and laces,
all complete. The pretty wife of an
eminent Viennese historical painter had
chosen the dress, or undress, of a water
sprite wherein to attend the “G’schnas
Bail,” and solicited her husband's aid to
“make up” her feet in the manner above
indicated. lie consented; but not
wishing to enhance his wife's natural
chajms by adventitious means, he put
off the footpainting operation until
tbe last moment. When, however, the
carriage was at the door, and the water
sprite’s scanty toilet completed in all re
spects but one. he seized brush and pa
lette, and addressed himself, seemingly
in feverish haste, to his task, hurrying
his wife off to the ball as soon as her
mimic feet were ready, without giving
her time to iuspect them. On enterieg
the gayly lighted ball room the lady cast
a hasty glance at her husband’s artistic
achievements. Her horror may be better
imagined than described when she per
ceived that the pink silk tights in which
her dainty feet were imprisoned had been
admirably illuminated by his master
hand with horrible representations of
chilblains, bunions and inveterate corns,
only too true to naiuie. That night she
danced not, but sat in a comer, njding
her travestied feet under her chair as best
She might.
How Wood Pulp ja Made.—So much
is said about the paper pulp which is ex
tensively used iu the manufacture of
paper that a brief description of the pro
cess of making it will be entertaining.
Any white soft wood may be used. The
bark is taken off, the knots and dark and
decayed places cut out. It is then put
into i large caldron and boiled, which
extracts all the glutinous matter and re
sin and renders it soft. It is then put on
a large stone grinder with water pouring
on it ail the tune. The grindstone wears
off the fibres until they are finer than
sawdust, which float away into a rccep
tacle. The water Is drained off by means
of a fine sieve leaving the pulp, which
consists of fine fuzz or splinters of wood.
It is white, and requires no bleaching,
but is ready to be mixed with rag pulp
or anything else that has a strong fibre
and receive the proper constituents to
make it into paste, after which jt is run
off into paper sheets, whereas rags have
to be washed and bleached with chloride
of lime, soda ash and alum and such
strong chemicals to take out the color.
Then they ate picked to pieces and made
into pulp. The process by which wood
pulp is made is purely mechanical. It
can be made cheap, say at about one
cent a pound.—Portland (Mr.) Press.
HORACE WHITE OX THE THIRD
TERM.
He Denounces It as Ilnamerlcan and
a menace to Popular Liberty.
Sew York Star.
About four hundred people, many of
whom were ladies, assembled in Stein
way Hall last evening to listen to a lec
ture on Third Term Politics by Mr.
Horaee White, President of the Indepen
dent Republican Association. Rev. Dr.
Bellows made a brief opening address,
speaking substantially as follows: “We
are on the brink of an important elec
tion, and certain members of our com
munity feel that it is time for an inde
pendent and serious consideration of men
and principles. We want men with prin
ciples, and men who can uphold them;
men who can in a quiet, sober, solemn
way conduct the government on a sound
basis.” He then introduced Mr. White
as “the well known editor and honest
man.”
Mr. White, who spoke in a monotone,
scarcely audible to those even near the
stage, commenced by explaining the
causes which led to the celebration of
our Centennial. He dilated upon the
class who foUDd voting in public affairs
an irksome duty, and who, he declared,
were not ashamed to favor an intelligent
despot, as compared with what they
styled the ruling of the slums. He next
turned his attention to the different Euro
pean forms of government, comparing
them with our own, with the cxplana
tory sentence: “A strong government
implies something more than strong con
stitutional laws.”
“It is of the first consequence,” said he,
“that wc Bhould limit the Presidency to
two terms. It has been said that it may
happen we will have to elect some
one to a third term in the future. That
time has not come yet, and if it overdoes
come, I suppose we will continue to elect
him and pray God to always keep him in
possession of his intellectual faculties.”
He referred to Lincoln’s short lease of
the second term, to Wasington as the
first to refuse a third term, to Jefferson
as opposed to it, and said that those men
had established a national precedent,
although they did it unconsciously. The
framers of the Constitution left this open.
They also left the name of God out of it,
yet we know they were not infidels.
“What are the objections to a third
term? In most governments there is a
union between Church and State, aud
many republics maintain large standing
armies. If we have the governing class
we need only permanent executives to
wipe out the difference. It is not neces
sary to define what a permanent exeeu
five is; it defines itself. In this country
whoever controls the party controls the
government.” The speaker explained the
workings of the “machine” at prima
ries, and claimed that it was so manipu
lated that only one sixth of the Republi
can voters of tbe city were privileged to
vote at primary elections.
“A third term implied a fourth term.
The second term was part of our system;
third term was in direct conflict with it.
Those who stick to the party must resist
the third term with all their might, for
one election to it would do irreparable
harm. We were told that Grant had no
laws to enforce against the will of the
people. If not he must have changed
greatly since his connection with the St.
Domingo scheme. There was only one
thing worse, and that was to establish a
system of government under which the
people would have no will.
“Why are our German and Scandina
vian citizens so hostile to a third term?
Because they had experienced the evils
of voting for the same man year after
year in their native lands. From the
deference paid by Europeans to their su
periors in station, from their continual
habit of looking up, an American would
think that they were engaged in studying
astronomy. In England they called it
snobbery, but it was our boast that we
were all on the same level.
“A permanent executive was inconsist
ent with civil liberty. Responsible gov
ernment had reached its highest develop
ment in England, and the English Lib
erals should receive three cheers from
America for their recent victory.” [Pro
longed applause.]
White and Yellow Corn.—“An Old
Subscriber” wants to know “the differ
ence. if any, in nutriment between white
and yellow corn for man or beast. ” There
is no specific difference, so far as color is
concerned. Yellow corn is better food
for stock liecause the grain is less flinty
and easier to masticate, and consequently
to digest. It is often noticed in the
spring that horses will leave white corn,
while takingycllow com freely. Y'ellow
corn is richer, perhaps, in the essential
oils, such as fusil oil, etc. The idea, how
ever, that yellow cornmeal is more nutri
tious than white proceeds from the fact
that yellow corn is usually grown on
richer and more southern soils; white
corn more exclusively at the North.
Northern corn is flinty and has a larger
proportion of the carbon making pro
ducts, starch, etc. Southern corn is
richer in the nitrogen-yielding products.
Hence the difference is primarily iu
soil and climate, and not in color. At
the North yellow cornmeal is preferred
because yellow com is raised at the
South, but here in Maryland, where we
grind our own com, wc prefer bread
white cornmeal, because, while it is equal
ly nutritious, it is esteemed more palatq
ble, being less “rank” in taste. If ground
alike, yellow meal is probably as di
gestiblc os white, but, yellow com being
softer, it makes a finer pjeal with the
same set of hu;7“ ‘nan white com, and,
Consequently, gives a heavier bread in
baking.—Baltimore Suu,

The Story He Tells of the Attempt

he Fastest Engine—The Reading
Railroad Company 1 as had built at the
Baldwin Locomotive Works a passenger
engine which it is designed shall make
the distance from Philadelphia to New
York, ninety mileB, in ninety minutes,
thus saving about half an hour. The
driving wheels are feet in diameter,
and the engine weighs about 84,000
pounds, from 10,000 to 15,000 pounds
more than the ordinary passenger engine.
It is expected to make the entire distance

capacity of engines in general. It will

Three boys in the Philadelphia House
of Refuge made a desperate assault upon

preconcerted attempt to escape. They

made the attack, inflicting perhaps fatal
wounds. They were captured, however,

How N-troLEON Made One Woman
Hatty.—During the Emperor’s stay at
Berlin, says Madame de Remusat, the
Prince of Hatzfeld, who had remained
there, and who, said the bulletins, ‘ ‘had
accepted the post of governor,” kept up
a secret correspondence with the King of
Prussia, in which he gave full accounts
of the movements of our army. One of
his letters was intercepted, and the Em
peror gave orders for hjs arrest and trial
before a military court. His wife, who
was with child, was in despair; she obtain
ed an audience of the Emperor, and threw
herself at his feet. He showed her the
Prince's letter, and when the poor young
wife gave way to her sorrow, the Emper
or, moved with pity, bade he rise, and
said to her, “Y’oq have the original doc
ument, an which your husband may be
comdemned, in your own hanfl. Take
my advice, profit by this moment to burn
it, and then there will be no evidence to
condemn him. ” The princess without a
moment's delay threw the paper into the
fire, and batued the Emperor’s hands
with her tears. This aneedot; wade a
greater impression cn peris than all our
victories.

One of not the least curious and inter
esting corners of the Palace of San Do
nato was the imperial chamber dedicated
to the memory of the Bonaparte family,
and filled with objects of interest relat
ing to that great houss. There were a
splendid study by Canova of the Prin
cess Pauline fiorghese, the “Petit Capo-
ral’s” youngest sister, a ring of the hair
of Napoleon I. when a child, a paper
weight made of a piece of stone from
the tomb of Napoleon at St. Helena, the
cockade worn by the Emperor on his re
turn from Elba, a tooth of Napoleon L
given by Mme. Mere to Jereme, King of
Westphalia, and snuff boxes, pocket-
handkerchiefs, rings, and even a pair of
breeches belonging to the founder of the
Napoleonic dynasty! All passed under
the hammer.
A paragraph went the rounds of the
English newspapers last winter about a
pheasant having been shot that had a
wooden leg. Now the sequel ia being
published. It is to the effect that a Lon
don surgeon, taking his holiday in the
country, found a pheasant caught by one
leg in a trap. The bones were complete
ly smashed and the leg bleeding. Taking
his case of pocket instruments, the sur
geon carefully amputated the leg, and
then made a neat litile artificial leg, fast
ened it to the stump and released the
bird,

The Central A>uw is responsible for the
following:
“It will be recollected that after the
release of Hartmann by the French au
thorities he came to this country. We
have to-day received from Hartmann the
following authentic version of his at
tempt to take the Czar’s life by blowing
up the train on which the Emperor was
traveling to Moscow. He seems to be a
medium-sized man of the better work
ing class. His manner is somewhat re
served. He has devoted his life to the
Russian revolutionary or Nihilist cause,
and had prior to the Moscow affair been
concerned in many of the desperate
deed3 directed by his party. He was
once arrested and thrown into prison at
Kieff, but the revolutionists held bis ser
vices to their cause to be of
such value that an extraordinary
plan to effect his release was con
cocted. A Russian officer went one
morning, with eight Nihilists dressed as
soldiers^ to the prison where Hartmann
was confined, and, producing an official
document, told tli£ director, Wladesti,
that by General Todlebeo’s orders, the
prisoner was to be surrendered to him.
The plan succeeded, and in a few min
utes after emerging from the prison Hart
mann and the Russian officer (whu is now
self-exiled) were driving towards the
frontier. Hartmann's account of the
Moscow attempted regicide is as follows:
‘Of course my real name is neither Hart
mann nor Mayer. I have used uiany
aliases while carrying out our plans. My
true name, however, is by no means un
known to high Russian officials and
members of tbe Third Section, and even
to Loris Meiikoff. After conducting a
propaganda in different parts of Rus
sia last summer, which led to my arrest
and escape from Kieff Prison, I was
detailed to carry out the Czar’s execu
tion. I have a practical knowledge
of military operations and the force of
“explosions, and I suppose it was on that
account I was selected to conduct the
attempt. Going to Moscow, I hired a
small house a few miles outside
the city, and situated within some
forty yards of the main line of
railway. The house was in a wretch
ed condition. I was dressed as a laborer,
kept quiet and went about for some time
as if attending to my place. After satis
fying myself that all suspicion was avert
ed, 1 set to work, aided by two compan
ions, one of whom has long been my
colleague. The nearest house was hardly
visible, and in tbe evening while two
stood on the porch, the third undertook
to dig a little trench with a spade in the
frozen ground. The trench was dug but
spade deep and wide,or five inches by five
inches. It ran from the railway to the small
out house attached to my dwelling. The
ground was very hard, and as we had to
proceed cautiously, the digging occupied
several days. In the trench as we pro
ceeded with it, four insulated wires were
laid, and every night as we finished our
work we filled the trench that had been
cut, carefully removing all traces of ex
cavation. The trench was dug along a
furrow in the open field. The dynamite
we mado ourselves in tbe house, and put
it into four strong iron flasks, each of
which held a little over an English
pound. When everything was nearly
completed, our plan all but fell through
owing to the failure of the Moscow elec
trician, whose suspicion was aroused, to
deliver the batteries to fire the mine.
This occurred the day before the ex
plosion. My comrades and myself
almost despaired, when but a few hout»
before we had congratulated ourselves
on the completion of our task. The
flasks containing the dynamite had been
safely wrapped up and laid in a deep
hole dug between the metals and beneath
one of the wooden sleepers. My resolve
was soon taken. I sent my comrades
away to a friendly peasant some twenty
miles off, in the south, and set out my
self to secure the batteries. With some
little difficulty I persuaded the electri
cian to entrust them to me, and I at
once returned and passed the night alone
in the solitary house on the steppe. The
wires I soon connected, and was all in
readiness for the coming train. The
Czar, I had been warned to expect, would
travel by the goods train, so you see I at
least did not stupidly blunder about the
train. My explanation is simple enough.
We were kept thoroughly informed
by some of our official friends of the
Czar's movements. We received warn
ing that pursuing his usual custom he
would leave the official train, in which a
figure representing the Czar would be
seated at a window'of the saloon carriage,
while the Czar himself, expecting thus
to escape all danger, traveled disguised
as a railway servant. A telegram tlfia
me all was right and the Cjar was com
ing, and as the t-aiu passed I fired the
mine, hoping to see the Emperor biown
to the winds. The wreck of the train
was blown away from the house, but to
my chagrin I soon learned that the Czar,
thinking himself safe from danger, had
changed trains a few miles off, so as to
enter Moscow in state. I at once set off
in a sleigh and rejoined my friends. We
remained quietly within * tWent y mjitw of
the scene of wreck, aud then traveled
*0 r,uerson, going thence to friends at
Odessa. Here we all shipped for Tur
key on board the Italian steamer Flor-
entica, I being in fact employed as an
engineer. From Constantinople we took
passage to France by way of tbe Levant.
On arriving in Paris I went about with
my friends. When walking in the
Champs Elysees, February 14, with
three friends, the moucluirds who had
been following us came up. Three of
them seized me, and I was arrested.
My companions succeeded in knockiuf
their captors down and escaping, and 1
was taken to Mazas. My friends went
to M. Clemenceau, who advised them to
employ Englehart, municipal counsellor,
which they did, and eventually I was
conducted by a mouchard to Calais and
put o-i board the steamer for Dover.
Although expelled from France, no offi
cial paper was issued. My friends wait
ed in a wine shop in the Avenue Vincen
nes for my release, and without making
themselves known accompanied me to
London,” In response to several ques
tions Hartmann sqifi be espoused the Ni

labor. He held his life light if he could
further the proletarians’ cause. For him

a drink, and one of the Babylonians fol
lowed and wanted to bet that Bridgeport
would go Democratic. A discussion
ensued, and when the curtain rang up
the Babylonian was unable to see out of
one eye, and Belshazzar dropped out
four front teeth in merely saying, ‘I am
the King. ’ Tbe audience, being a criti
cal one, took th3 ground that their ap
pearance was not historically accurate
and demanded their money back.’ 1 In
the next presentation of “Belshazzar”
there will be no “waits” between the acts
long enough to enable anybody to leave
the stage, so nothing of this kind need
be feared.
Although many are predisposed to Lung
troubles from birth, yet even such may
escape Consumption, or other Pul
monary or Bronchial disease, if due care and
watchfulness be observed, and all exciting
causes are promptly treated as they arise.
It is In these cases Dr. Jayne’s Expectorant
exercises its most beneficial effects, and has
produced the largest proportion of its cures.
Besides promptly removing Coughs and
Colds, which, when left to themselves, are
tlie|lmmediate causes of tuberculous develop
ment,this standard remedy allays any inflam
mation which may exist, and by promoting
easy expectoration cleanses the lungs of the
substances which clog them up, and which
rapidly destroy when suffered to remain.

DIAMOND SPECTACLES.
T HESE Spectacles are manufactured from
“MINUTE CRYST ‘
STAL PEBBLES” melted
together, and are called DLA.MOND on account
of their hardness and brilliancy.
Having been tested with the’polariscope, the
diamond lenses have been found to admit fif
teen per cent, less heated rays than any other
pebble. They are ground with great scientific
accuracy, are free from chromatic aberra
tions, and produces brightness and distinctness
of vision not before attained in spectacles.
