The New York Tribune has information
to the effect that Mr. Carlisle is about to
begin a vigorous campaign for the Speak

stab-sinan will lie at a decided disadvan

The Philadelphia Ream! calculates
that should a surplus revenue of $100,000,-
000 le distributed among the States, the
pro rata share of Pennsylvania would lie
about $8,000,000, or more than has ever
been collected under the State levies.
What a magnificent scheme Mr. Barker’s
is, to be sure.
John Kelly affects to be astonished at
the complaisance of Mr. Tilden exhibited
toward Tammany, as vouched for in the
New York 'Times' interview. Judging
from the activity of the opponents of
Tammany, it does not appear that Mr.
Tilden's lieutenants share his good humor
toward the boss.
Wolfe, the pioneer of the Pennsylvania
Independents, refuses to support the Re
publican nominee for State Treasurer
upon the ground that he is under the con
trol of Chris Magee, the Pittsburg lioss
and deputy of Cameron. Is the ‘‘har

prove illusory after all?
It.is proposed to make a feature of fruit

The grand prize of SSOO for the best dis

of winning some of the fruit prizes.
The latest guess as to the identity of
the near friend of Mr. Tilden’s that talked
so divertingly about the Sage of Grey
stone to a representative of the New York
Tint'.*, has it that it was Mr. John Bige
low. It matters little who the geutleman
was, since Mr. Tilden. up to date, has not
seen fit to deny any of his statements.
Mr. Justice. Field is quoted as saying
that it would not be many years before
the isthmus of Panama would mark the
Southern boundary of the United States.
A great many people share in the
opinion of the distinguished jurist, but
the interval that will elapse ere it is
verified will probably be longer than he
suspects.
It is reported that an important meet
ing of prominent Democratic politicians
belonging to the Tilden wing was held at
Albany on Saturday night at the call of
Daniel Manning. The proceedings were
secret, but enough has leaked out, it is
said, to warrant the statement that the
chief object sought was the healing of
the differences between Gov. Cleveland
and Tammany, which arose out of the dis
tribution of patronage. Efforts will Ik?
made to solidify the party as far as
possible.
In the last issue of the Tallahassee
Floridian Mr. C. E. Dyke, its veteran
editor, announces the sale of the paper to
Messrs. Bowen & Dorr. For forty-two
years Mr. Dyke has been the faithful and
fearless advocate of whatever he deemed
calculated to benefit the commonwealth,
and his readers will regret that the neces
sity for his retirement has arisen. His
successors are trained newspaper men.
Mr. Dorr having had a wide and varied
experience, and they promise to maintain
the reputation the Floridian has so de
servedly achieved.
It will be interesting to note the fate of
Mr. Beck’s bill, which appropriates $30,-
000 to the State University for the support
of the branch colleges and for the estab
lishment of a State mineral and mining
information department. In some parts
of the State there is an impression that
the branch colleges are injurious to the
University in this, that instead of acting
as feeders they furnish comparatively few
students to the University. A student
who gets a diploma from one of the
branches is generally satisfied to termi

A circular from the President of the
Central Railroad Company announces
that the duties of Treasurer of that com
pany have leen heretofore performed by
Mr. Edward Mclntyre, under the official
title of ‘‘bookkeeper,” and by resolution
of the Board of Directors, it has been
ordered that his official title hereafter
shall be that of “Treasurer.”
Mr. Mclntyre has been in ■
the service of the Central from boy- j
hood, and has occupied his present posi
tion for fifteen years. To say that he is
an able and efficient officer is only stating
what is well known by every one who
knows anything about him. Ilisdevotion
to his position is such that he is but sel
dom seen in the business part of the city,
and, therefore, is comparatively unknown
outside of his official and family circle.
Among the many good men in the employ
of this great corporation, there are none
better than Mr. Mclntyre.
Mr. C. P. Huntington, of the Central
Pacific Railway, proposes to have the
18,000,000 acres of land to which he claims
he is entitled for building the Southern
Pacific, if there is any way to get it. This
land grant, it will be remembered, was
made to the Texas Pacific, but that road
was built no further towards the Pacific
than the western border of Texas. An
assignment, however, of whatever rights
the Texas Pacific had to the land
grant was made to the Southern
Pacific. To the average mind it
would appear that the Texas Pacific had
nothing to assign. However, Mr. Hunt
ington thinks it had, and moreover thinks
lie ought to have the grant because he
built a road over the route covered
by it. The Attorney General, it seems,
favors his ciaim, but Mr. Teller,
Secretary of the Interior, opposes it. It
is said Mr. Teller will take a vacation of
a tew weeks, and while he is away the
Assistant Secretary will refer the matter
to the Attorney General and get an opin
ion that the Interior Department cannot
very well afford to ignore. It is a mixed
up matter at best. Huntington is trying
to get from the government what he has
no right to, and a lot of blackmailers are
trying to get something out of Huntington

The Shaw Outrage.
The brutal attack of the Mexican mob
on Rev. Mr. Shaw, in Monterey, while in
charge of the American Consulate in that
city, raises a doubt whether a continu
ance of the amicable relations between
this country and Mexico is probable.
For a year or more prominent men in
this country, who have closely watched
the course ot events in Mexico, have en
tertained the impression that sooner or
later trouble with Mexico is inevitable.
The ruling class in Mexico is friendly to
the United States, but the great mass of
the people are bitterly hostile. When
the Mexican commercial treaty ques
tion was under discussion last win
ter. the unfriendliness of the common
people became -very marked. The lead
ing men of Mexico are engaged in all
kinds of schemes with American
speculators for enriching themselves.
Nearly all of them, in one way and another,
are interested in the grants of lands and
mines, and the various concessions which
the Mexican Congress has made to Amer
can companies. It is to their interest,
therefore, that the two countries should
remain on the best of terms. So long as
they are promised fortunes they care very
little for the welfare of the State. The
common people, however, view the situa
tion differently- They see their
country burdened with debt and
all the revenues absorbed to
enrich a few American and Mexican
capitalists. Although they may eventually
be benefited by the building of railways
and the opening of mines they do not be
lieve they will lie, and they naturally re
volt against this condition of affairs.
There is no organized opposition, but no
opportunity of exhibiting their hostility
is lost. Without organization they can
not hojie to change the policy of the gov
ernment. They can only embarrass the
government by such acts as that at Mon
terey. Acts of that character may embroil
the United States and Mexico in a war if
related too often. Should the hostility
to American enterprise take an organized
form, under able leaders, a revolution
would l>e the result. In that case war
between this country and Mexico could
hardly la- avoided. Americans have too
much money invested in Mexico to per
mit their property to lie destroyed or con
fiscated without an effort to protect it.
Indeed, this government is bound to see
that the rights of her citizens in Mexico
arc protected. In the event of a
war it is a question whether
the boundary between the two countries
would lie preserved. There would lie a
strong sentiment in favor of absorbing
Mexico, but it is doubtful if it would be
strong enough to bring about annexation.
Undoubtedly American railway interests
in Mexico would lean in that direction.
These interests have not the strongest
confidence in the stability of the Mexican
Government. A revolution is liable to
occur at any time, and jeopardize these
interests. Mexico is rich in undeveloped
resources, and American capital would
flow there if it were certain that it would
be protected. This uncertainty will
strengthen the sentiment in this country
in favor of annexation as American in
terests in Mexico increase. The Shaw
outrage will no doubt lie amicably ad
justed. but every outrage of that kind,
however abjectly the Mexican Govern
ment may apologize, will hasten the time
when a strong party in this country will
demand American interference in Mexi
can affairs.
The South's Industrial Future.
We have long held the ground that the
South did not stand in need of protection
for the development of her industries.
Her natural advantages are such that,
were inducements not held out by the tariff’
as at present arranged for capital to invest
elsewhere, her iron furnaces, foundries
and cotton tactories would be largely and
speedily multiplied. While pig iron is
protected as it is. its makers will be slow
to seek the iron fields of the South. So,
too, while the New England spinners and
weavers can make a profit out of their
plants they will only remove here when
persuaded by competition of the greater
opportunities afforded here. When the
tariff shall have been reformed the trans
fer of much of the industry of the North
to this section will be a matter of neces
sity.
A correspondent of the New Y'ork
Tribune writes enthusiastically of the
cotton industry in the South. He sums
up the advantages of the Southern manu
facturer, which consist in his access to
the source of supply, thus saving trans
portation. reduced price of the raw' ma
terial, ability to procure uncompressed
cotton, thus improving the quality
of his product. This latter ad
vantage will count greatly, he
thinks, when competition is once fairly
established. He vouches, too, for the
ready welcome that capital seeking in
vestment here tiuds. Altogether the out
look for the South’s industrial future is
assuring. The tariff will stand in some
shape or other for years to come, but
every reform in the matter ot import du
ties will profit this section, and its natu
ral advantages alone in time will tiring it
into prominence as a field for profitable
investment.
Now that the telegraphers have fairly
make good sheir threat of a general
strike in case their claims were not re
cognized, the contest reduces itself to one
of endurance. It would appear that the
number of striking operators is not as
large as was anticipated. It may be
that their strength may tie largely recruit
ed as the strike progresses, but the
probabilities are the other wav. If the
company can make out for a lew days
with the help available the strike will
probably collapse, unless the strikers re
ceive material backing from sympathi
zers. Public opinion seems to be with the
operators, but the vexations of a pro
longed interruption of business are likely
to work a revolution iu sentiment.
The history of labor revolts shows
that as a rule the strikers come off the
worse in a prolonged contest. The issue
of the present struggle, however, can be
better judged of by observing the events
of the next twenty-four hours.
Edouard Remenyi has written a letter
to Jay Gould, telling him how he can
make his proposed voyage around the
world in his yacht not only pleasurable
to himself but also a remarkable national
event to the people of the United States.
The following is an extract from his let
ter:
“Dear sir, surround yourself on this
tour with worthy representatives of
American scientists and artists. Take
with you in the branches of science a his
torian. a biographer, a botanist, a mathe
matician. an archivologist, an astrono
mer, a meteorologist, a zoologist, a chem
ist, a geologist, a geographer, a philolo
gist. ah engineer, and iu the belles-lettres
a litterateur, an alert journalist and a
good poet i this last lieing will be the only
one hard to find.)
“In the branches of art, a painter, a
sculptor, an engraver, an etcher, a xylo
graph- a decorator, ;ui architect anil a
learned musician (not a virtuosa), whose
task would lie to note, to comment, and
to analyze the national vocal treasures
(popular melodies) of all those nations
where the intended voyage will take
place.
“Just imagine he result! What a
glorious amount of useful and artistic in
formation would flow into the national
Treasury of the United States through the
admirable works of such an arcopag of
eorypheuses.”
Just imagine Jay Gould in such a
crowd! Before he got back from a voyage
such as is pictured m this letter he would
have wished a hundred times that his
yacht was at the tiottoin of the sea.
The Republican National Committee
will not, of course, think of settling the
question of the place of holding their next
national convention until Deacon Richard
Smith is heard from. The good deacon
has expressed no preference yet. He has
simply said that he “didn't want the con
vention held in a small town in a small
hall.” This is enough from the deacon at
present. Later he will have something
further to say.
Dorsey’s fifteen chapters of revelations
in the New York Sun last Monday have
increased the public appetite for more of
the same kind of stuff. A suggestion
made is that additional revelations be ac
companied with proofs, in shai>e of letters
from his tin lined cedar box. The docu
ments would prevent Republican journals
from charging that his revelations are
fictions and trash.
Inspection of Fertilizers.
In six years, it is alleged, fees for in
specting fertilizers sold in the State of
Georgia, amounting to $350,487, have been
collected. It is also stated that the ac
tual cost of making the inspection was
s<>*,9oo ss. These figures show that the
State netted out of the inspection business
the neat little sum of $281,586 42. The
question arises, who pays the inspection
fees? Do the fanners, or the dealers pay
them? The intention of the law, no doubt,
was that the dealers should pay them,
and they do in the first instance. But
do not the dealers add the Tees to the price
charged the farmers for the fertilizers.'
The dealers say they do, and that these
inspection fees finaily come out of the
pockets of the farmers. If this lie true, is
not a law which taxes the farmers of
Georgia sixty thousand dollars a year,
while pretending not to tax them but to
afford them protection against fraud, an
unjust law? It is questionable whether
the law affords any protection. In a com
munication signed “Dealer,” which we
publish this morning, it is show n that the
inspection law is so administered that the
door is left wide open for fraud. Ac
cording to this communication the
inspection is not thorough, and
the tags which indicate that the
officer has jierformed his duty are not at
tached to the fertilizers by the inspecting
officer, but are turned over to the dealer,
who attaches them. A dishonest dealer
can use the tags as he pleases. He can
put them on an article entirely ditterent
from that inspected and of not one-half
the value. What particular benefit, then,
is this inspection, for which the farmers
pay such a heavy tax? It is ol no benefit
as far as wqcan see, except to the State
Treasury, and we cannot see the
justice of placing a special tax
on any one class. We doubt
if Mr. Ray’s bill is wise. The effect of it
will be to influence dealers not to sell on
credit, or, if thev do, to demand a price
from twenty to fifty per cent, higher than
their cash prices. The bill is pregnant
with litigation. The difficulty of reaching
the truth where a farmer asserts that a
fertilizer was worthless is apparent. A
fertilizer may be ever so good, and yet,
for a dozen reasons, such as character or
condition of the soil, drought or too much
rain, may not do a crop any good the first
season. The proper thing for the State
to do is to license dealers in fertilizers,
or charge a reasonable insjiection fee,
and apply the whole amount realized
iu securing an inspection that is valuable.
CURRENT COMMENT.
That Was the Trouble in 1876.
WatteriiOri in the Courier-Journal.
Can anvbody wonder that, surrounded
by all that can make life happy, no power
on earth could drag Mr. Tilden to Wash
ington to take the oath ol office, far less
to accept a Presidential nomination?
Fresh Frauds in l’lenty.
Mete York World.
The Tribune is correct. What need to
go back to the magnificent corruptions of
Grantism, when there are plenty of new
frauds supplied by the Republicans with
out “rakiug over” those of ten years ago?
Principal and Agent.
Philadelphia Times.
Mr. Dorsey is too hide-bound a spoils
man to see it probably, but he has unwit
tingly plead guilty on behalf of his stal
wart friends to worse crimes against
good government than their bitterest ene
mies ever charged them with.
Suspicious Harmony.
Little Rock Gazette.
In the list of Republican journals anx
ious for the election of Mr. Randall as
sleaker ot the House is the St. Louis
Globe-Democrat. In fact the Republican
journals are more nearly a unit on that
than on any other question.
Then and Now.
Boston ITerald.
If Mr. Tilden’s sore head deserved to be
made an issue in national politics, the
time to have done it was in 1880, while the
head was still sore. To flinch from the
issue then and present the head when its
sores have been (or should be) replaced by
scars convicts the party either of coward
ice or insincerity.
The South Wide Awake.
Rochester Union.
The memory of deeds of valor on the
battle field is' well enough, but men may
not always live in dreamland, or con
tinue to "exist in the dead past. The
South has become wide aw*ake, has fully
roused herself to the duties of the day,
and the impetus of her new life is sensi
bly ielt throughout the Union.
Let the Truth Be Known.
Philadelphia Record.
He must now produce his documents or
call on the men who possess them or have
knowledge concerning them. Should he
fail, a committee of Congress may suc
ceed in eliciting the entire truth. The
country will net lie content until the
whole truth is known in regard to the
transactions of the contest of 1880 about
which Dorsey bears witness.
Blaine and Arthur.
Xew York Tribune.
A canvass of 344 points in thirty-eight
States has shown the New York Times at
present that James G. Blaine is far ahead
of anv other, the favorite among the peo
ple for the Republican nominee for Presi
dent, and that next, though greatly be
hind, comes General Arthur, of
these preferences is at present in a shape
to make itself felt, anil it is doubtful if
either ever will be. Both are interesting
as confirmations of opinions long since
formed by careful observers.
Protection in Pennsylvania.
St. Louis Post-Dispatch.
Pennsylvania Republicans are howling
for more of the taxation falsely called
protection, especially for miners and
workers in metals, and they still have
the cheek to pretend that such taxation
makes more work and better wages for
the workingman. Yet, while no other
State in the Union has had so much pro
tection as Pennsylvania, or come so near
living on protection alone, there is no
other State that has had so many labor
troubles or such large masses of laborers
leading lives of miserable want.
“Turn the Rascals Out.”
Washington Post.
The familiar story of General Gallopade
and the twenty “Colonels” at Willard’s
illustrates the universality with which
officeholders have applied this maxim
to themselves: “Take a drink.
Colonel?” said General G., and instantly
one score of “Colonels” moved by com
pany front towards the bar, each one
cheerfullvresponding: “Thank you, don’t
care if I do.” But General Gallopade had
intended his invitation for only one of the
twenty, and this terse maxim, so far as it
applies to changes in the incumbents of
offices, strikes no honest man—it hits only
“the rascals.”

rewriting it, an eyelash fell upon the
paper, and, instead of brushing it off, I
concluded to leave it there just to see
whether they would read the piece. ‘Well,

there was my eyelash all undisturbed!
Now you know if those three half sheets

The Galveston News concludes’ an
article on Texas horse thieves as iollows:
“The News has nothing to say against that
munificent spirit which was at the last
session of the Legislature exhibited in the
substantial contributions of cash for
monuments, historical works, the univer
sitv, colleges and schools, but suggests
that a small amount from thecash balance
for protection of sweating producers
against these bands ol horse-thieves
should have first been allowed. The
farmer is sometimes obliged to sell his
cow to pay the tax on his stolen work
horse, and he has the right to ask that the
tax be used to catch the thief rather than
to build a monument.”
In reply to some inquiries it may be
stated that the new liquid explosive,
“pauclastic,” as it is called by its in
ventor, M. E. Turpin, consists of a mix
ture of carbon disulphide and hyponitric
acid. The liquids are kept separate be
fore being used. Unconfined, the mixture
burns with a soft light like that of the
moon. When a little phosphorus is added
to the disulphide the radiance is very
brilliant. Confined in shells, torpedoes,
etc., and exploded with fulminate of iner
curv or gunpowder, its effects are terrible,
far exceeding those of dynamite or nitro
glycerine. It will not be well for inex
perienced persons to tamper with these
liquids.
The city of Sail Francisco pays $225,-
000 a year for 5,000 gas lamps. By some
municipal misunderstanding or misman
agement, no money was provided to pay
the last installment of tills tremendous
bill; the gas was shut off, and the streets
were left in darkness for two months. The
night of July 1 was celebrated by relight
ing *.he extinguished burners, and the
citizens rejoiced as if they # had now had
gaslight for the first time. Reviewing
the period of municipal eclipse, the local
papers declare that there was an actual
decrease of crime during those dark
nights. One newspaper accounts for this
unexpected result of civic neglect by say
ing that garroters and footpads were afraid
to venture out in the darkness, the preca
rious condition of pavements, gutters,
and sidewalks making rapid flight difficult
anil dangerous.

Tlie Cauae of Yellow Fever.
Xew, Orleans Picayune, Julg ltth.
Immediately on the reception of the no
tices of the valuable experiments of Dr.
Domingos Freire, of Brazil, which we set
before our readers on July 13 and 15, the
Picayune telegraphed to its Washington
correspondent to endeavor to procure
from the State Department information
concerning the subject. He obtained per
mission to transcribe tlie report of Mr.
John C. Wbite. our Secretary ot Legation
at Rio de Janeiro, which will appear in
its place in the regular publications of the
department.
In respect of public sanitation, the
importance of the fact that the germs of
yellow fever do not disapiiear with the
burial of the corpse is obvious aud com
manding. When we know that the
cemeteries are perennial foci of con
tamination, we know enough to protect
ourselves against them. Sharp and prompt
action on the part of the public authori
ties will enforce that remedy which is the
only safeguard of the public health, cer-
tain and perfect.
“To the Hon. FrrAPk T. Frelinghuysen,
Secretary of State:
“Sir—l have the honor to submit here
with extracts from a report made by Dr.
Domingos Freire, a distinguished physi
cian, on the transmission of yellow fever
by contagion. This dreadful disease has
been very fatal during the past four
months and the death rate from it is still
high.
“I have the honor to be. sir, your obe
dient servant, John White,
‘•'Legation of the United States , Rio de Ja
neiro. May 11, 1883.”

YELLOW FEVER —TRANSMISSION BY CON
TAGION.
On the 14th we took from the heart of a
person who had died of yellow fever an
hour before some grammes of blood, in
which the microscope revealed the pres
ence of the crypto-cocci that are now cur
rently considered to constitute the char
acteristic ol that disease. These organ
isms were in different phases of full de
velopment, from the size of small black
points to that of large, round cells, grey
ish or dark fringed with a brilliant point
in the centre. Besides these were to be
seen masses ot transparent granulations
set in a gangue of yellow pigment.
We took one gramme of the blood, and
with every care that the case required,
our able assistant, Sr. Menezes Doria,
made an intravenous injection in the
great vein of a limb of a rabbit. Fifteen
minutes later tetaniform convulsions
showed themselves, with back hollow
ings, and the animal soon succumbed,
fulminated, so to say, by the violence
of the virus so rapidly and di
rectly introduced into the great circula
tory torrent. At first, we suspected that
some accident had caused the death of the
animal, such as air getting into the vein,
or some clot, but the operation was exe
cuted with the utmost care and the death
in those cases should have been sudden
j and unaccompanied with the course of
’ symptoms just mentioned.
In making the autopsy we found visce
ral congestions analogous to those we
had seen in the corpses of yellow fever
patients, and we found in the blood the
same crypto-cocci as existed in the corpse
that served for the inoculation.
If the death had been due to the quick
action of the crypto-cocci, and not to an
accident, the blood of the rabbit should,
when itself inoculated in another animal,
cause the death of th? latter. To put this
beyond doubt, we took a gramme of the
dead rabbit’s blood and injected it hypoder
matically into a guinea-pig.
Well, the latter died at the end of some
hours (in the night of the 14th) and we
found an extraordinary quantity of crypto
cocci in its blood, and saw also’ the
anatomo-pathologic lessons,which usually
characterize cases of yellow fever in man.
The death of the second animal was
evidently due to the contagion, and
showed that the rabbit whose blood was
inoculated contained in itsolf the trans
mitory virus and succumbed to the in
fluence of this virus.
Not content with this, we injected a
gramme of the guinea-pig’s blood under the
skin of another guinea-pig, and in the
space of some hours this one appeared
j feverish, oppressed, with cold ears and
j paws, trembling and rejecting blackish
i dejections. A drop of this animal’s
blood showed an Infinity of crypti-cocci,
and within a little time ft also died.
By these experiments we have proved,
therefore, contagion and transmission of
; the disease four successive times. The
sick man received it from the medium in
which he lived, from him we passed It to
the rabbit, and from it to a guinea-pig,
which in turn transmitted it to another
; guinea-pig. In all the four cases the blood
j showed swarms of crypto-cocci.
In this manner we are able to produce
i epizootics in the animals in our labora
i tory, by inoculating many at once with
themicrobiateil blood. These facts, there
fore, prove beyond doubt that yellow
fever is propagated by contagion from in
dividual to individual, that it is primi
i tively a contagious disease, but may be.
' come infectious as soon as sufficiently
many focuses accumulate. They also
, prove that the disease does not reside ex
i clusively or especially in any one organ;
it resides in the blood, and therefore in ail
the organs the blood traverses.
Dr. Domingos Freire also considers that
they also establish the parasitic nature of
yellow fever, and that this parasite is the
crypto-coccus found in every legitimate
case of yellow fever, and termed by t}iin
c. xanthogenicus.
Dr. Domingos Freire also communi
cates the discovery by him and isolation
of an alcaloid extracted from black vomit,
in which it exists in the state of a salt,
He says he has reason to believe that it
is a prodnet of a secretion or excretion of
the microbii, which, however, does not
prevent both the alcaloid and the micro
bias lieing factors of the morbid state. It
is liquid, of an acrid, aromatic smell, oily,
forms an opalescent emulsion with water,
is soluble in alcohol and ether. It strong
ly blues red letmus paper, and must con
tain a good proportion of nitrogen, as it
gives out abundant ammoniacal vapors
when heated with potash.
He also ascertained by direct experi
ment,by cultivating crypto-coccus in gela
tine within a Pasteur globe, that the color
of black vomit is not due to altered blood,
but to the crypto-coccus, and he was thus
enabled to obtain an artifical black vomit,
A culture of the earth taken, as reported
in our issue of April I, from the grave of
a man deceased it year before of yellow
fever, also produced artificial black vomit.
Another experiment was made with
the same earth. A guinea-pig whose
blood examination showed was in a pure
state, was shut up in a confined space in
which was placed the earth taken from
that grave. In five days the animal was
dead and its blood proved to be literally
crammed with the crypto-coccus in vari
ous stages of evolution, the urine was al
buminous and the brain and intestines
were yellow, with the peculiar pigment of
the crypto-coccus.
In view of such facts he asks how it can
now be said that the germs of yellow fe
ver disappear with burial of the corpse.
On the contrary, the cemeteries are the
perennial focuses ot contamination, above
all as the epidemic diseases
whose parasitical nature is aocepted now
in science.
Corroboration of part of the above is
also afforded by Dr. Aranjo Gori’s experi
ments with blood from the liver of a yel
low fever patient, he considering the liver
the special seat of the disease. With its
culture on a slice of bread he obtained a
fungus, and succeeded with the latter in
communicating yellow fever to various
fowls, guinea-pigs and a monkey, by inoc
ulations, injections and introduction into
the stomach.
A Swimmer and a Saw Fish.
Xew Orlenn* Picayune. •
About 5 o’clock last evening, while
Professor Williams was giving swimming
exhibitions in Lake Pontchartrain, he saw
moving on the top of the water, in a di
rect line and within two feet of him, what
he supposed at the time was an alligator.
He grasped the jaw with both hands, and
with a sudden w reneh broke it. In the
struggle for the mastery Professor Wil
liams was twice carried under the water
before he succeeded in landing the mon
ster upon the wharf, where it was ascer
tained that he had captured a saw fish
three feet two inches in length, with a
body two and a half feet in circumfer
ence. In the saw were 42 teeth.
Mrs. Eliza Brannan, Ivanhoe, Ga,, says:
“I used Brown’s Iron Bitters with best
results for extreme nervousness, sleep
lessness and bad blood.”
No Best y or Night.
In the fall of 1875 my sufferings were
terrible. 1 was swollen tq such propor
tions that I feared iny limbs would burst.
I had the best medical talent obtainable,
and at the worst stage of my illness, when
my husband and many friends had giyen
me up to die, the late Dr. John Woodbury
made a thorough examination of my
water, and pronounced my case acute
kidnev disease, bordering on Bright’s dis
ease, and accompanied by gravel, and
recommended the immediate use
of Hunt’s Remedy. At this time
I was suffering most terrible
pain in mv back, limbs and
head, and could 'find no rest day or night
for weeks, and I was growing weaker
daily until this kind physician ordered
me to take Hunt’s Remedy. Before tak
ing half of one bottle 1 commenced to im
prove, and after taking six bottles was en
tirely cured. This was nearly eight years
ago, and I have had no return of the dis
ease. I have recommended Hunt’s Reme
dy to others in similar eases, and it has
never failed to cure. I have also used it
for sick headache, and found In it a sure
relief. I think it the best medicine made,
and cheerfully recommend it to all.
