rietta was a vessel of two hundred and
eighty-four tons, built in LJamariscotta,

Captain femmes informed the prisoners
that on October JO, he had captured the
packet ship Tonawanda, of and from Phil
adelphia for Liverpool, with passengers
on board, and detained her for five days,
then releasing her for a bond of eighty
thousand,dollars, payable as above. He
also captured the siiip Manchester, of and
from New Y ork for Liverpool, and the
brig'Duukirk, from New Y'ork for Lisbon,
and then burned them, putting the crews
on board the Tonawanda. The Tona-
wanda is a vessel of thirteen hundred tons,

Dipthcria—il« \ature and Treatment.
At the time, when diptheria is making
such terribie ravages in some parts of'the
country, the following, in regard to its
nature and treatment, from a distinguished
physician of Texas, who has had great
success with the disease, may be observed
with interest and profit :
Diptheria may 7 justly he divided into
two grades, which are the same in fact,
only- differing in degree.
In the first grade there is but little fever
or inflammation. The fever is not of long
duration and the inflammation is usually
looked on as a slight soreness of the threat,
and is not unfrequently passed by for days
as being unimportant. There is but little
inflammation or swelling of the submaxil
lary glands; and aside from the fact that
the child refuses food, and looks sick and
dejected, it might almost sink into the
arms of death without exciting feelings of
alarm in the friends. On opening the
mouth and depressing the tongue with a
spoon handle, white spots of false mem
brane will be found in the throat. This
membrane is very adherent, and'hard to
remove, and is disposed to extend more or
less rapidly, more especially down the air
passages; and at night is almost sure to
cause obstruction in respiration to such an
extent as to induce mothers to suppose
sufferers are labouring under croup, Dur
ing the day, as a rule, respiration is easier.
The second grade of this disease, as
remarked above, differs from the first only
in degree. Hence, being the same in
essence, the degree is only- alluded to, as a
grade, from the fact that during the ordi
nary- stage a line of treatment is clearly
! indicated which is wholly inadmissible in
| the first-
In the first grade I would advise, if
; there is not much obstruction to respira
tion or deglutition, that the parts covered
with false membrane, and all the parts
which seem to be at all inflamed, should
be freely sponged with the strong tincture
of iodine—the compound tincture. If the
bowels are not free, some simple purgative
should be given, such as rhubarb or the
compound extract of colocynth, or both
combined ; and the sick should at once be
placed on the use of the nitro-muriatic
acid. A child one year old may take half
a drop in four tablespoonslull of water,
sweetened, every hour or two. The
tincture of iodine should be used freely 7
every three or four hours until the mem
braneous exudation is not only loosened
j hut detached. Then, and not until then,
: should any other local means be resorted
: to. After the membrane lias been remo
ved, a saturated solution of tannin, or a
very strong decoction of oak bark, may 7 be
used * cquently 7 , the tincture of iodine
being used only 7 occasionally. Blisters or
any strong liniments to the throat do more
harm than good. The neck should be
Where the obstruction to r°spiration is
such as to cause the child to have an
anxious, suffering expression, I would ad
vise a prompt emetic—one that will not
run off the bowels, and thereby unneces
sarily debilitate the patient ; and for ths
purpose I know of nothing better than the
j sulphate of copper cr blue stone. One
i fourth of a grain may- be given in two
table-spoons-full of warm water every
quarter of an hour until the patient is
vomited freely.
So soon as the urgent symptoms have
been controlled, I would advise that the
plan- of treatment advised for the mild
grade be resorted to.

MY WIFE AND CHILD.
The tattoo beats—tbe lights are gone,
The camp arotmd in slumber lies,
The night with solemn pace moves on,
The shadows thicken o’er the skies:
But sleep my weary eyes hath flown.
And sad, uneasy thoughts arise.
I think of thee, oh, dearest one,
Whose love my early life hath biest—
Of thee and him—our baby son—
Who slumbers ou thy gentle breast.
God of the tender, frail and lone,
Oh, guard the tender sleeper’s rest,
And hover gently, hover near
To her whose watchful eye is wet—
To mother, wife—the double dear.
In whose young heart have freshly met
Two streams of love sc deep and clear
And cheer her drooping spirits yet.
Now. while she kneels before the Throne,
Oh, teach her. ruler ot the skies,
That, while by thy behest alone,
Earth's mightiest powers fall or rise,
No fear is wept to thee unknown,
No hair is lost, no sparrow dies !
That Thou can’st stay the ruthless hands.
Of dark disease, and sooths its pain;
Thet only by Thy stern commands
The battle's lost, the soldier’s slain—
That from the distant sea or land
Thou bring’st the wanderer home again.
And when upon her pillow lone
Her tear-wet cheek is sadly prest,
May happier visions beam upon
The brightening current of her bteast
No frowning look or angry tone,
Disturb the Sabbath of her rest.
Whatever fate those forms may show,
Loved with a passion almost wild—
By day—by night—in joy or woe—
By fears oppressed, or hopes beguiled,
From every danger, every fee,

Ttco Wisconsin Lieutenants in Trouble.
—T. C. Hindmau, the Rebel commander
in Arkansas has written a letter to Gener
al Curtis, warning him not to shoot or
hang one Lieut. Folleson, as a guerilla,
and notifying him as follows:
“I have ordered Lieut. Hobbs, of the
1st YYisconsin cavalry, U. S. A., whom I
have in custody as a prisoner of war, to
be placed in close confinement, and in the
event of violence being done to Lieut.
Folleson, I shall hang Lieut. Hobbs by
way of retaliation. I desire, also, Gener
al, to call attention to the recent murder
of Samuel Berry, a citizen of Crittenden
county, Arkansas, by men of tbe Federal
army or navy, at Council bend, Arkansas.
The circumstances are reported to me as
follows: Berry had been charged with
burning bis own cotton and sugar, to pre
vent its falling into the hands of the Fed
eral troops. For that offence he was ta
ken aboard one of your boats, tried and
acquitted. As he was leaving tbe boat
lie was told to run, which, in his fright he
did,as he ran, the brutes upon the boat
fired upon him and killed him. 1 demand .
that the murderer be surrendered tp me

I have ordered a 2d Lieutenant from Wis

The second grade, as remarked above,
differs from the first only in point of inten
sity The inflammation of the throat is
great, and the exudation of false mem
brane is, as a rule, proportionally great,
hence, means must be at once adopted, not
only to modify, with tincture ot iodine,
with a mop, the parts invaded with false
membrane, but the inflammation must be
brought under control.
With this view, I would advise the use
of calomel. Small doses, often repeated,
act better than large doses. A child one
year old may take one-fourth of a grain
every hour until the inflammation has, in a
good degree, been brought under control.
The Nobthern elections.—Al
though some who have heretofore been
despondent borrowed a great deal of
hope from the Northern elections, yet,
fairly interpreted, we think they indi
cate nothing more than general discon
tent, and hold out the hope of nothing
more than increased discoid. Both are
good in their places, and we are glad
to see them; but they hold out no
hope of speedy peace. The most hete
rogeneous elements have conspired to
give a victory to the anti-Lincolnites.
First and foremost, no doubt, is the
unpopularity of failure. When we see
bow disaster in the South loosened
the tongue of complaint against the
Administration, we can well under
stand liow the late campaign in Virgin
ia, told against Lincoln, w 7 ho, up to
four months ago, was vastly popular.
Then there were a thousand other ele
ments of general and particular
dissatisfaction—among them the tyran
ny of the Administration and the
Emancipation policy. The old line
Democrats who are patriotic, but
whose patriotism is summed up in the
triumph, of the stars and stripes—the
late Whigs, who are men of trade and
figures, ail borrowing their value from
a national unit, made all the bulk of
the opposition, and are as little likely
as any body we know of, to consent to
dismemberment. The floaters were
the disgruntled—disappointed-South-
ern sympathisers—peace men—reli
gious noncombatants, &c., dec., who
voted with the Democracy simply be
cause they could not be worsted" by a
change. Taken as a whole, it may be
more of a peace party than the Repub
licans, but is not a peace party. But
it is at least cr party born into vigorous
life—feeling that they are destined to
triumph; and the sharpest possible is
sues with the Republicans exist in the
Lincoln proclamation for the emanci
pation of the blacks and the enslave
ment of the whites. Upon these they
may and will fight, and naturally
drive each other to greater antagon
ism of measures and of feeling.—-The
elections are important to us only as
to their general tendencies, and hold
out no hope of speedy results.
