Some of Blaine’s boomers tried to get the business men of Bangor to give their candidate a certificate of good character, but several leading Republican firms re fused to sign their names to the docu ment. ______ An exchange objects to the newspaper portraits of the day because they make preachers look like ehicken thieves and bank Presidents like cut-throats. W ould it have bank Presidents made to look like chicken thieves? Another woman has got an oflicee under the United States government. Mrs. Marcia McKean, of Washington, has been appointed by the President to sign land warrants, as provided in the legislative appropriation bill. A number of so-called Independents in I’ennsvlvania have announced them selves lor Blaine. This device for start ing reaction in favor ot the Republican nominee is extremely thin. Everybody can see through it. In prohibition lowa a German has in vented a temperance fluid which is called “mum.” It is made of three degrees of strength.

He Is not expected to institute any inves tigations or reforms, but merely to keep the office opeu. and sit with his feet on the desks until the great naval-hero returns. The spelling reform mania has broken out again, and the papers of the relonutrs convince the world that Sut Lovingood was not the only natural born lunatic of the century. The greatest objection to the reform system is that it partially vin dicates Josh Billings’ second-hand method of boring the public. Notwithstanding the immense tariff subsidy, another large Iron manufactur ing company in Pennsylvania has failed. To carry the protection doctrine to Us le gitimate conclusion, the farmers and me chanics of that State ought to assess themselves to pay its debts and sot it to work again, 80 lar, however, no move of this kind has been made—not even by the eminent Samuel J. Randall. A negro murderer in the Cambridge, Md., jail, who is to be hanged on August 1, has had a card placed over his cell door stating that persons desiring to see him can do so by paying five cents to the fund for the burial of bis body. If there ahould be more money realized than is necessary to defray his burial expenses, he ought to devise it to the Bartholdi pedestal committee of New York. The slate maker has not yet retired from business. The well informed and reliable gentleman who was one of Cleveland's warmest supporters at Chicago, and who prat esses to know some things the Gov ernor intends to do when he gets into the White House, is also abroad in the land. He has informed a Philadelphia Times reporter that Bayard will be Secretary ol -State and Randall Secretary of the Treasury, and that McDonald would be well cared for by the administration. It was too great a task for the gentleman to disclose the whole of the incoming Cabinet at one sitting. Of course he knows how everything will be arranged. The leader of the eighty noisy Irishmen in New York who tried to get up a stam pede from the Democratic party aud failed is said to be Condon, who two years ago pretended to sell the Land League of that city to the machine Republicans. The league was not for sale and Condon failed to deliver the goods, with the exception of a few straggling followers, composing probably the same crowd that is now stampeding again from the Democratic party. It is said, however, that Condon has managed to get a pretty good living in one shape or another out of the Republi cans for several years past. Asa profes sional stampede starter he will not likely be more successful in the future than he has been in the past. Political and sporting circles in Balti more were considerably excited Monday by the publication in the New York Tribune of a dispatch stating that George Cassidy, a well-known saloon-keeper of Pa t more, had said that be had in his safe in packages of SIOO each the sum of $lO,- <**> which ho was prepared to bet on Blaine’s election. Political color was given totbe matter by stating that Cassidy was a Democrat: It was also Intimated that the money had been put up+y sport ing Democrats who lost heavily on Han cock. On being, interviewed Cassidy stated that the money had been sent to him from New York for the purpose in dicated, but that a telegram was received after he had arranged the bets directing him not to bet a cent of it. Cleveland stoek had evidently gone up with a bound. The Fits John Porter veto appears to have been a two-edged sword, so to speak, especiallv to Secretary Lincoln and Sena tor Logan. Mr. Lincoln was deeply in terested in the relief of Surgeon Pope, whose bill, ju*t passed, the President has been obliged to veto for consistency’s sake. Cspt. Kirby Is a protege of Sena tor Logan, who succeeded in procuring the passage of a bill for his restoration, but. although the President approved the bill, be now refuses to appoint him. The President’* show of consistency is prov ing rather costly to his advisers, and now the papers friendly to Gen. Porter are all saving, in effect, that Mr. Arthur might have saved his friends and his consistency also it he had honestly stated that his veto of the Porter relief bill was founded on personal and political reasons rather than constitutional objections* The Second District of Florida. Neither the Democrats nor the Repub licans appear to be entirely happy with the condition of political affair* In the Second Congressional District of Florida. Mr. Bisbee secured the Republican nomi nation for Congress, and he bad hardly finished receiving the congratulations of his friends before Walls, a colored poli tician of some little reputation, sprang into the arena ana announced that he thought he could serve the district in Congress better than Bisbee, and declared himself a candidate. All attempts to get Walls out of the Way have failed, and it looks very much as if Bisbee and It alls would divide the Republican vote between them. The Democrats, thinking that they would have an easy time In carrying the district with both Bisbee and Walls in the race, met and nominated Mr. Charles Dougherty. Nobody denies that he was the choice of the convention by a very considerable majority, but it appears that Mr. Dougherty is not wholly satisfactory to his party. Mr. St. Clair-A trams, the editor of the Tavares Herald, denounces Mr. Dougherty’s nom ination as one unfit to be made, and de clares his purpose to use all the means in bis power to bring about Mr. Dougherty’s defeat. He says that it is doubtful if Mr. Dougherty can carry his own county, and that in quite a number of other coun ties in South Florida, viz.: Volusia, Orange and Sumter, there is the most intense indignation over Mr. Dougherty’s nomination. Thisas a very sad state ot affairs. What has Mr. Dougherty done that the best elements of the party in Sumter, Orange and Volusia counties should be so inimical to him? A little in formation on this point would be interesting. Has he done anything worse than beat somebody for the nomination who was the favorite ol the best elements in those counties? It is only fair that an anxious public should be enlightened. If he is a bad man, or if he isn’t a sound Democrat, why not say so, instead of dealing in general terms ? The conven tion that nominated him has the reputa tion of having been a very respectable body of representative Democrats, and it would be unjust to condemn their work without knowing the grounds on which it is condemned. The Democrats of the Second district must remember that the Democratic party proposes to have a majority of the next House of Represen tatives, and that in order to get a ma jority it must have the earnest help of Democrats in every district in the coun try. Mr. Bisbee carried the Second dis trict of Florida at the last Congressional election by a majority less than 300. If the Democrats act harmoniously they can carry the district, especially as Mr. Bis bee has opposition in his own party. If, however, the Democrats want Bisbee to represent the district they have only to listen to those who don’t like Mr. Dough erty. It is hardly reasonable to suppose that there are enough Democrats in the district who are so far forgetful of their duty to the party as to help elect a Re publican. Tlie New Capitol. The Capitol Commissioners of Georgia are now coming down to serious work. The detailed examination of the pro posals for the new capitol is not a job to be desired, especially when the figures are 25 or 30 per cent, higher than they ought to be to get inside the limit fixed lor the cost of the building. The lowest bid made for the whole work is nearly $1500,000 in excess of the funds available for building the capitol, after reserving an amount sufficient to pay the expense of the commissioners, superintendence, etc. It is stated, however, that some of the Commissioners hope by culling the sever al bids for separate portions of the work to bring the total cost of the building within the $1,000,000. It is to be hoped that they may be successful in this laud able undertaking. The Commissioners stand obligated by their own assurances and by the sentiment of the people of the State to build the capitol with the amount named in the law. It is true that the cost of a a house, especially of a public building, almost invariably exceeds the estimates from 25 to 50 per cent., but the Georgia capitol is one that the people desire shall be an exception to the rule. It is to be regretted that the Atlanta bidders, who were relied on to have the capitol built by Georgians, out of Georgia material, flunked by not complying with the regulations as to the manner of making bids. It would have looked bet ter it they had abstained from bidding altogether. Doubtless a majority of the thinking people of Georgia never expected the cost or the capitol to come within the amount appropriated. The proposition to make an additional appropriation, however, will not be a popular one, and the Commissioners will be reluctant to suggest such a thing. These gentlemen deserve sympathy just now. If they can’t whittle out a suitable house from the smaller proposals, the probabilities are that they will have to “cut and come again,” or adopt a less costly plan and advertise for bids anew. Tlie First Hale. There is every season considerable rivalry to secure the honor of sending 4o market the first bale of cotton of the new crop. The first bale has not yet made its appearance this season. Last year it was reported in this city as early as July 6, and in New Y'ork on July 12. The bale received in this city came from the inter ior of this State and the one received at New Y’ork was picked near Houston, Texas. There were doubts about the genuineness of the Georgia bale, aud it was admitted that the cotton in.the Texas bale was picked be fore it had matured. As those who are interested in promoting the cotton inter ests are desirous otjTv of securing fair play in the matter of the first bale, the National Cotton Exchange, at its meeting at Old Point Comfort last July, adopted a a resolution in which it was stated “that the National Cotton Exchange recom mends to the Cotton Exchanges of the United States that anew bale of cotton shall be so classed only when it is fully matured. That anv cotton found in such bales not fully matured, shall be consid ered good ground for its rejection. All first new bales received from any State shall be submitted lor examination to the Committee on Classification at the Ex change where received, and their decision of acceptance or rejection shall be final.” It may that this resolution has had dis couraging effect on the first bale business. The honor of having produced the first bale ought to go to the planter who sends to market the first bale of mature cotton, and not to the one who practices a decep tion. From the action of the National Exchange it is evidently the purpose to give honor to whom honor Is due. The cotton crop is late this year, and it may be several days before the first bale is heard from. Not Lost to Memory. Republicans who flourished in the South during the carpetbag era are a long-lived } race. Every now and then one of these ! ex-office holders “bobs up serenely.” The last and probably the least of these wor ! thies who has been unwittingly thrust to the front is Henry S. Wetmore. who was Ordinary of Chatham county in the days following reconstruction. Wetmore is now Admiral Porter’s private secretary. It appears that Wetmore was %ixed up in the Naval Medical Bureau frauds, about which Mr. Hendricks and Mr. Chandler have just been having a very in teresting correspondence. The statement is that Wetmore received 25 per cent, of the amotfnt tha*onc transaction yielded. How much more he got, if any, has not yet been revealed. It is reported that there is to be a Blaine and Logan ratification meeting held in this city at an early day. It might be well for the committee of arrangements to se cure the presence of some of the distin guished Republicans who flourished in Georgia when that party ruled the State by the bayonet, and its leaders lived on the fat of the laud by reason of the exactions wrung From an oppressed people. A railroad bridge, a car window and a young man from the country 1 A dull thud, a trace of a substance slightly re sembling brains, a funeral. Blaiue Orators and the South. It is stated that Blaine’s managers are trying to persuade him to follow the ex ample of Douglass when a Presidential candidate and take the stump in his own behalf. There are doubtless strong argu ments in favor of such a plan, and per haps, stronger arguments against it. Blaine would undoubtedly arouse a great deal of enthusiasm if he were to take an active part in the canvass, but it would he said, and with a great deal of truth, that such a course indicated a lack of confidence in his success. All the talk about Northern speakers canvassing the South in aid of the Re publican tieket promises to come to nothing. What means the Republicans have, and they promise to be rather limited this year, will undoubtedly be expended in the doubtful States. Speak ing on this point the Sun pertinently says: “Abusing the South is not so popular as it was in 1876, and perhaps if Mr. Blaine goes South it will become even less so. It is a favorite superstition among the epileptic Republican organs that the Southerner is a horrible ogre, who, after making his breakfast of a colored baby, gallops to the nearest settlement and peppers with buckshot all the Republican men, women and children within range. If brother Blaine and his corps of shouters return, hoarse, but otherwise uninjured, from Dixie’s Land, the superstition will be a little weakened, and the Tribune' campaign poets will be out of subjects.” The danger to the Republican cause is verv clearly pointed out in the above ex tract. The Blaine orators undoubtedly would be received kindly and courteously in the South, and would be given a fair hearing. Such a reception, however, would destroy the bloody shirt arguments which are expected to be effective with Northern audiences. It is safe to assume that the R, publicans prefer their bloody shirt arguments, and that they will let the South alone. The convention at Chicago last week proved too much for Chas. 11. Andrews, one of the Connecticut delegates. Mr. Andrews became ill soon after reaching Chicago, and as the physicians could do nothing for him they advised that he be taken home at cnce. He said to hi 6 friends that he should never leave Chicago alive, and made them promise that they would take his body to his wife. He tried to kill himself by jumping from the hotel window. His friends started home with him, but at Toledo he became a raving maniac, and was placed in an asylum in that city, ne is a man of wealth, and is only 43 years of age. It is barely possible that the effort to determine how the two factions of the party would agree upon a tariff plank was the primary cause of his insanity. The Republican Congressional Commit tee indiscreetly sent out a circular an nouncing that, “with a view to Jhe thor ough distribution of such documents as will advise the country of the objects and aims of the Democratic party, the Repub lican Congressional Committee has de cided to supply committees and all other persons with such speeches and documents as it may trom time to time publish, enveloped and (when IVankable) franked, if desired, for distribution, at the following exceedingly low rates,’’ etc. It has now recalled the circular, which will be replaced by an other, “more carefully worded.” Several thousand which had not been mailed were destroyed Monday. It is stated that O’Donovan Rossa is really very much troubled on account of the presence in America of Howard Vin cent, late' Chief of the London police. •Rossa suspects that Howard is yet a se cret agent of the English government and that his mission is to establish in New York a bureau for the surveillance of dynamiters. If Vincent is really looking after dynamiters aud not alter frauds, it seems that Rossa need not losq any sleep on his account. CURRENT COMMENT. Clear and Emphatic on One Point. Chicago Timet (Dem.). There is one point on which the Democratic platform is clear and emphatic. It demands a change whereby the Republicans shall he put out and Democrats shall be put in. On this point there is never any ambiguity in Demo cratic platforms. Randall’s Silence. Philadelphia Press {Rep.). Cleveland has made a speech since he got home, so has Hendricks; Bayard and Butler talked to an interviewer, and Thurman is not silent; but Randall lias said nothing. Yet what volumes of quiet thought lie behind his silence, and what a deal he must be adding, in imagination, to the future history of the Democratic party in this State, and the rise, progress and fall of sundry Democratic poli ticians. Cleveland’s Statesmanship. Boston Pott {Dem.). Wc harbor no doubt that Grover Cleveland could pass a very satisfactory examination in the ancient history of this government and country, for his acts have shown that ho is familiar with the wisdom of the republic’s sagos and learned in precept and precedent. Hut he does not live in the past, lie makes the most that lie can of the present. He is as patient and persevering as he is honest and courageous, and he makes it his duty to thoroughly understand and as thoroughly execute the highest commissions with which the.pcople entrust him. The Cry In the Air. Baltimore Sun {Dem.). The cry for reform is in the air, and it has lieen demonstrated that no substantial re form is possible without a change in the ad ministration of the government. W iih hut two political parties in the field, the only pos sible change must be in the substitution of one for the other. The country is at jieace. All the States of the Union are exercising in their respective spheres the functions of govern ment unmolested, the old feuds are dead, there is now manifested between them a bet ter spirit of fraternity than there ever was before, and if reform is to cotne, it must be through the party that has raised the banner of reform, and through nutting fresh men in high official stations and at the helm of gov ernment. ITEMS OF INTEREST. A locomotive was run from New York to Albany, a distance of 14T miles, on Sunday without stopping. The Philadelphia Kennel Club has decided to abolish the black-and-tan setter class at its coming dog show. To introduce it would be an Injustice to the breeders of Gordons of straight pedigree, and accordingly no “half Irish” will be allowed. It is a common belief, assidiously fostered by dealers.that tortoises feed on black beetles. The real fact, however, is that tortoises have much cleaner tastes, and belong to the straightest sect of vegetarians. The things they like are grass and dandelion and lettuces and a few select flowers; ami sooner than eat the domestic pests which are generally the only form of food provided for them, they die of starvation. The more revelations are given of the Hesse morganatic marriage the more curious it ap pears. The story now is that the minister who performed the ceremony did not do so until the Duke produced a pistol and swore that unless married in an hour he would blow out his brains. The English Queen pays the raonev which is to buy off the successful lady, but the opinion is still common that if the Duke should carry out his intention of re signing he will try love in a cottage with the now discarded wife. The National Council of Education is now in session at Madison, Wis. The council is a sort of executive branch of the National Edu cational Association, and is composed of 51 members. This latter body begins its meet ings this week, and an attendance of 4,000 or 3.000 is expected. At the close of the ses sions manv of the teachers will indulge in some of the excursions offered them. Two hundred are already booked for the Yellow stone. and two or three parties will go on to Oregon and even Alaska. The New York Cotton Exchange commenced Monday to sell print cloths under the “call” system. Opinion is divided as to the policy of thus incorporating so novel a feature in the business. The “call” will be by months—the form of contract will be for 45,000 yards In 1,000 pieces, 64 square, of the grades of best extra extra ami standard, the fluctuations to he in 5-100 of a cent per yard, which will make the smallest fluctuation 42,250 per contract, or equal to five points in cotton. Margins are to he subject to the same rules as cotton con tracts. A recent cot'BT TRIAL in which Sir John Ashley, the well-known backer of Rowell, undertook his own defense, on the ground that he was too poor to pay an attorney, de veloped the fact that a large number of the hansom cabs of London are now owned by the aristocracy. Sir John himself and the Duke of Marlborough are partners in one; Mr. Lowther, another tremendous swell, is also in the business; and the Earl of Shrews bury openly displays his coronet and initials on the large number of hansoms he owns. This partly accounts for the splendid attire of the hansom drivers, and for such bold and startling innovations as the white Holland which thev now throw over the black of their cabs so as to protect passengers against heat. The Wilhelm Theatre, Berlin, is built on part of a garden. At the end of each act the audience go out into the garden until a bell rings to give notice of the next. The second act of “Trovatore” is compressed into twelve minutes, and a recent visitor says that the audience evidently expected moreof it, for bo one stirred. A notice, "End of the Act, rose out of the stage, and in two minutes the exo dus was complete. Each time the entire audience went out in less than two Btinutee, and refilled the house in lee* than three. The eating and drinking was not done hastily at a bar. but leisurely done at table*. The waiter in a few seconds wouldeover stable with a cloth, knives and forks, plates, etc., and people had a series of little meals between the acts, while the other* walked about until the bell rang. * Visitobs to Frankfort-on-tbe-Main this summer will find that one of the sight* marked for them to see in the guide books ba* disap peared. The Judengasse, of which there has onlv been one side standing since 1877, is now under a final sentence of destruction. The street was interesting historically, dating back to the middle o' the fifteenth century, when it was the exclusive Jews’ quarter, and was safely walled in. the gates being shut on Snndayt and holidays, as well asontheoc easions of the Emperor’s visits to the city. It was only in 1808 that these gates were de molished and the restrictions on the Jews re moved. Since then the Frankfort Jews have spread throughout the city. Only the poorest and most wretched were left in the Juden gasee. and its destruction will be an undoubted sanitary improvement. Sir James Caibd. ib a recent volume enti tled “India, the Land and the People,” in clines to the opinion that India can never be come a dangerous rival of the United States in the European wheat market until her 10,- 000 miles of railway have been quintupled and her transportation rates reduced one half. Nor will it suffice to put grain into Calcutta at the same price for which it can be purchased in New York city, as it must always cost much more to ship from India than from here. When Sir E. Baring pub lished his “Financial Statement” for 1883. New Yprk had an advantage in the shipment of grain to England of about $6 25 a ton over Kurraehee, J3 25 over Bombay, and $7 over Calcutta. And even in January, 1884, when Mr. William Fowler prepared the sta tistics printed in the Xineteenth Century. the rates gave New York the advantage of S3 50 a ton over Kurraehee and Bombay, ana 45 25 over Calcutta. The band of the Madgebnrg Cuirassiers carry off the honors at the Health Exhibition in London. Their trumpet playing is a reve lation. There is an amusing contrast between these towering and ponderous troopers of Prince Bismarck’s regiment and the under sized, chicken-cliesteu, lank-limbed Belgian bandsmen. The Cuirassiers belong to a regi ment which performed a deed of heroism paralleled only by the famous Six Hundred. After the bloody fight on Spicheren Heights Bazaine was leaving Metz to stand a siege, and was hurrying of to meet McMahon. Bar ring his way stood only a cavalry division, but it was imperative for Von Moltke’s strategy that Bazaine’s march should be delayed. Gen. Bredon formed his men across the road to Paris—2o.ooo against 200.000. Charge after charge over Turcos, Zouaves, Chasseurs in bristling souares the gallant horsemen rode. They left two-thirds of their men on the field, but ’Bazaine was delayed. A maid servant was discharged, but was to remain until the end of her month. She invented a retaliation which has proved the most ingenious and effective of any that ever the Utica Observer heard of, excepting those involving the perpetrator in danger of pun ishment The house had aconimandingover look of a park in which suicides had been committed. The mistress was abnormally affected by anything weird or tragic. So the maid told’her of the suicides, pointed out from the window the spot where this poor fellow had hanged himself, where that one had died by drowning, and where the other had blown his brains awav. She added, with a shrug and a shudder, that she fancie I she could see, o’ nights, the ghosts of the self-slain haunting the places of their crimes. Tlic old woman was horrified. She could not look at the park, which had previously been a solace to her eves, without descrying the points which the girl had invested with gruesome interest. She has gone to Newport for the summer, and will never return to her house alongside the park. BRIGHT BITS. Widow Butler’s other name Is Aunty Mo nopoly .—Baltimore A merican.

A Sixth street merchant was on his way to a base ball match the other day when he met his mother-in-law, a nice old lady, who was not profoundly learned in the mysteries of the national game. “Where are you going?” she inquired-. “Out to the ball'match. The Cincin natis are goinz to play the Athletics this afternoon.” “YYhat pleasure is there in that to a man ?” “Oh. a great deal. It’s fine sport, and, besides, one of my customers plays in the Cincinnati Club. “Who’s he?” “Will White, the pitcher.” “He isn’t much of a player, is he?” “Yes, one of the best. What made you think he wasn’t?” “Whv, I 6aw in the paper the other day that he’went to sleep while he was play ing.” “Went to sleep? Went to sleep?” re peated the puzzled son-in-law. “That’s what I understood.” “I can’t 6ee how that could be. I never heard of such a thing. Are you sure you saw it that way ?” “Of course 1 am. It said ho was caught napping on the bases, and if that doesn’t mean he was asleep, I’d like to know what you call it?” The son-in-law sent a base ball diction ary to his wife’s mother.

SNAKES AND FUSEL OIL. A Showman Die* from the Bite of One of Hl* Strange Pet*. James Reilly, a professional snake charmer, living at No. 44 Bond street, N. Y., says the World of July 14, has long been regarded as an expert in handling dangerous reptiles, which he exhibited to admiring crowds at Kyle’s Park, High Bridge. Yesterday while handling a large rattlesnake it suddenly coiled its tail around the man’s arm and fastened its fangs on Reilly’s right hand between the thumb and index finger. Reilly was almost transfixed with horror and completely lost his presence of mind. Dr. Meigs Case, of High Bridge, was called. He took vig orous measures to counteract the effect of the poison. Incisions were made in the flesh near the wound,' trom which the blood flowed but feebly on account of the effect already produced on the heart’s ac tion by the poison. Thei patient aj>- plied the sucking process to the wounds, however, and extracted as much blood as possible.Tbe man was by this time almost pulseless. Dr. Case administered a quart of coffee and copious draughts of whi6ky, which, however, produced appa rently little effect, and the Doctor ex pressed the opinion that the case was fa tal. Reilly was taken to the Ninety ninth Street Hospital, where he now lies. The above case recalls that of Reynolds, a New York man, who was bitten by a rattlesnake about two years ago at One onta, N. Y. Reynolds was lifting a snake from a box when the reptile bit him on the hand, but the man notwithstanding this picked the snake up and was again bitten. Stimulants were resorted to and blood drawn from the veins near the wound,which latter was trebly cauterized. Reynolds was intoxicated at the time. He swallowed large draughts of whisky, producing an apparent benefit, which, however, proved ouly temporary. Within ten hours after being bitten his entire arm to the shoulder was swollen terribly and turned a perfectly black color. Death resulted in fourteen hours after he receiv ed the wound. Betore his death such was the great tensiou on the skin that numer ous incisions were resorted to to afford- relief. . . From the time of his admission to the hospital Reilly’s condition has been grow ing worse, his death being not unlikely at any moment. He presented a horrible appearance Monday. The right arm—he was bitten in the hand between the thumb and forefinger—was swollen to tnree times its normal condition from the wrist to the shoulder, and the hand itself would have made four of the unbitten one. Although the rest of his body was not swollen, blotches had broken out all over him, and they gave him the appearance of having been tattooed. Reilly was still conscious, ex cept at intervals, when he relapsed into a semi-unconscious state. He apparently suffered but little pain, as ever since his admission to the hospital hypodermic in euons of whisky and ammonia had n made almost every hour. He expect orated and vomited blood freely all day, and was in a very weak condition. All the physicians attached to the hos pital have watched the progress of the poison in the man’s system with extra ordinary interest, as there had never been a case of rattlesnake poisoning treat ed in a New York hospital. No treat ment for it, except the injections of whisky and ammonia, is known. Dr. Spalding, the house surgeon at the Ninety-ninth street Hospital, was over run with persons yesterday, who brought remedies which they warranted would cure the poisoned man, but as none of them apparently knew how the remedies should be applied, they were not heeded. Finally, however, an individual carrying a brown paper parcel under his arm and attired in a suit of blue flannel, with an open-front blue shirt, brought up sud denly in front of the hospital steps. He announced his intention of curing Reilly, and said he was willing to go to work at once, and asked to be al lowed to do so. He would neither reveal his name nor the nature of his remedy, but said he came “all the way from York town, this State, sir, to cure the man, b’gosh.” He was allowed to retire to the rear of the hospital, where a small mor tar, a basin of water and a pint of salt were given to him at his request. He carefully unwrapped his paper parcel and drew therefrom a quantity of green leaves and roots, which looked like pepper mint, and which he began indus triously to pound. After break ing the mortar carefully into two pieces, he removed his plants to the door step, where, with equal energy, he pounded them with a hammer on the stoue until he got them reduced to a pulpy state. He then emptied his pulp and the salt into the basin of w'ater, and asked to be taken to Reilly’s bedside. He confidently as sured the doctors that he could cure the man inside of three hours. The herbs, he explained, had been used hundreds of times in similar cases, and always had proved successful. Inside the tent the blus-shirted indi vidual knelt down beside Reilly’s cot and plastered his concoction all over the ter ribly swollen arm, from the wrist to the shoulder, and put small chunks of ice on top of the leaves. Reilly made no resist ance, nor did he seem to know what the fellow was doing. After the stuff had been on the arm for almost an hour, and without any apparent effect, it was taken off. After waiting until Reilly died the amateur doctor started wearily for the train to “Yorktown, this State.” Among those who called to see the poisoned showman was Frank Feraldo. He said he had known Reilly on and off for 25 years, traveling, sleeping and ex hibiting with him on many occasions. He averred that the alleged diamond-back rattlesnake was nothing more than a common Florida rattlesnake. He laughed at Clark’s story about Reilly having captured the snakes in Mexico, and said that he (Feraldo) was with Reilly when the latter bought them in Pensacola for $2 apiece, and paid dearly for them at that. They were as veno mous, however, Feraldo said, as the genuine diamond-back, and, if anything, of a more savage nature after having shed their skin. He told of a case in which a negro in Jacksonville w T as bitten by one of the snakes in the little linger. Almost immediately after the bite the finger began to swell, when, with great presence of mind, the darkey amputated the finger himself and saved his life thereby. Very few cases of snake poisoning, Feral do said, were ever cured, but whisky was the universal remedy. Amputation of the member poisoned immediately after the bite was Bometimes effectual, but it rarely could be done quickly enough to prevent the poison from spreading through the en tire system. THE PLAN OP BATTLE. Efforts to Get Blaine to Take the Stump —The Democratic Campaign. Plans for the campaign, says a Wash ington special, are now being rapidly matured by the leaders and committees of both parties. The 'most important move of the Republican committee at this time is to induce Blaine to take the stump in person. A great pressure will be brought to bear upon him to do as Douglas did in 1860, and make this a speaking campaign on the part of the candidates. The plan is, if Blaine can be induced to accede, to speak in Boston and Springfield,Mi# I in Hartford, New Haven, York, Albany, Buffalo and other cities, il possible, in New York; Philadelphia, Baltimore, Pittsburg, V/heeling, Rich mond, Raleigh, Memphis, Nashville, Louisville, Indianapolis, Cincinnati, Co lumbus, Cleveland, Evansville, Spring field, Chicago, St. Louis, Kansas City, Denver, Detroit, Milwaukee, St. Paul, and San Francisco, thus taking in all doubtful States and many that are not doubtful. It is thought the poople will travel long distances to hear out ot curi osity, and that to see and hear him will have a great effect. At any rate, Logan will take the stump and will be cha peroned and feted everywhere by the Grand Army. Blaine and Logan are about to have a meeting in New York, possibly, and then their letters of acceptance, which have been withheld to await the appearance of the Democratic platform, will at once be given to the public. One thing that bothers the Republican committee no lit tle is the distance from each other and from political centres of Blame and Logan, the one being in Maine and the other to be in Chicago in a few days, while Cleve land and Hendricks are within easy reach of each other and the National Committee and on the most important debatable ground. An effort will be made to induce Blaine to locate himself farther west for a time. The Democrats have done little as yet, but it is known that they intend to make a tremendous campaign in the doubtful States, both with a view to elect the Presi dential ticket and also to maintain tbeir hold on the House of Representatives and to capture a sufficient number of Legisla tures in States which hold Senatorial elec tions to convert the Senate into a Demo cratic body. Then they will not only con trol all legislation and appointments, but will reorganize the Supreme Court. Inexpensive and effective is the great substitute for sulphur baths, Glen’s Sul phur Soap.
