Waynesboro True Citizen: Burke county
comes rapidly to the front by being the
birthplace of James Bowie In about 1720.
From Col. Bowie comes the name of the
celebrated tiowie knife. He was a deeperate
fighter, aud his bloody proclivities en
couraged his mventile genius in the get-up
of this lamous knife. He first used this
knife in a fight on the Mississippi, opposite

contre.

duty it is to sign the certificates do not
write their signatures several different
ways, it is evident that there is or inked
Work somewhere. If this be the (
would be an easy matter for tbe Floridian
who is wc-loomed by the so-called oiien
arms (after he passes the quarantine officer
at East Point) to return to Macon. It is
said that steps will he ; alien to ferret out
tbe matter, and ir bogus certificates are be
ing Issued .somebody will suffer.
Lincolnton A'euis: A tragedy which, 1
suppose, has ended in death by this time,
happened upon the plantation of Dr. Ham
ilton on Saturday evening, the remit of tlio
careless handling of tho nimble pntoL A
negro was sitting in hi* cabin bundling his
pistol, when someone threw a nek in at
the door, when he threw up his pistol and
Brwl out at the door; but, just <w Ur pulled
the trigger, a negro boy, some 12 or 13
years of age, stepped into the door in time
to receive the contents of a Smith & Wes
son in his right breast. He ran some 200
van Is and fell at tha door of Mr. Baston,
the manager of the plantation. He was
not dead on Monday morning, but there
was thought to be no hope for his recovery.
It is said that yellow fever was once epi
demic at Union Point, and several citizens
of that town died of it, including the mother
and father of Col. R. H. Lampkin, who had
a hotel there. The disease was brought to
Union Point from Augusta, and soon found
a foothold among the native population.
This village then only boasted a few fami
lies, and was soon dspopulated and the
fever stopped. A propo-ition was made by
several citizens to open the gates of Athens
to Florida lefugees, as it is thought the dts
ease could not become epidemic in that
latitude. With the experience of Union
Point, however, before them, the citizens
decided that it would lie a very foolish
and dangerous step to voluntarily import
fever cases.

The board of health have found the rigid
quarantine maintained by Nassau county
very expensive, and the fund for that pur
pose is exhausted. They have now arranged
with the bank of Fernandina to advance

guards can be maintained.
While the present quarantine is in force

building c laches, etc. Twelve engines are
lying idle at the shops, and most of the

ployed to do what work the comnanv is
compelled to have done, which is very little
at present.
Tavares Herald: A senseless rumor be
come current on Wednesday that tbore was
a case of yellow fever in Tavares. A case
of sickness was attended by considerable
vomiting, but Dr. Taylor declared that it
was not a cam of fever. The patient, or
his friends, not being satisfied, Dr. Dean, of
l-oesburg, was telegraphed for. If the epi
demic should reach Tavares, the Herald
will publish the fact; but with vigilanc • on
the part of the board of health, we believe
that the scourge can be kopt out of Lake
county.

burg; for collector, A. J. Cassidy of Fort
Mason; for assessor, F. S. Woodward of
Leesburg; for treasurer, W. H. Dry an of
Astor; for surveyor, George O. Butler of
Seneca; for superintendent of public in
struction, J. C. Compton, of Clermont.

night. He had been sick for several days,
was poor, and hail no moans to live on.
W hen taken sick he went into t lie stable,
and made bis bed in a cart. There he
stayed without attention, a very sick man,
for several days. Several hours before his
death he fell out of the cart on to ttie stable
floor, and was too weak to get back, until
someone came along and placed him back
again. The authorities were notified, but
nothing was done to asis the poor old suf
leror, and there he died without friends to
care for him.
The Fernandina Mirror of Saturday an
nounced that “Htephen A. Hussar died at
the residence of Mrs. Daniel LeKils a week
ago Saturday of bilio-gastric fever. L. B.
Aiken died at the residence of his brother
ou Friday evening. T. B. Pryor was fast
r. covering from an attack of typho
malarinl fever, when he had a rela|ise nnd
died. In addition to these, the following
deaths are announced: Jack Graham, 8. B.
Payne (principal of colored school), Ancey
Cousaus (colored), A. Nelson and a child of
Ed Langley (colored). Autopsies were made
on two of the aliove bodies—Messrs. Bessar
and Payne—but the physicians dis
covered no symptoms of yellow fever."
Dr. J. D. Palmer of Fern indina an
nounced lost week that he believed yellow
fovor existed in the city, but uono of tho
other health authorities would concur in his
belief. In this connection, the Mirror
printed tho following significant paragraph:
“Under ordinary circumstances these
deaths would causo no great uneasiness, but
they have I een seised upon by the tinnd
and credulous ns proof of the existence of
yellow fever in this community. We
record them as u matter of news, as
is our usual custom. We will deceive
no one in this matter, and iu
. tend to tell the truth (when wo
I know it) at nil times. The question is in
| the hands of tho board of health; up m them
' will rest tho responsibility.” On Friday
la t the c mntv board of hoalth officially de
nied tho existence of fever in Fernandina.
In a nutshell, while many of the people ami

that it was not.

AN OLD REM 3DY.
The Anti-Prohibition Method of Treat
ing Yellow Fever.
Arthurß. Clarke of Atlanta, Ga., claims
that from personal experience he knows
the following treatment to boa sure cure
for yellow fever.
“On the first unmistakable symptoms of
the disease, divest the patient of every ar
ticle of clothing, save (where mt desty and
circumstances forbid) the drawers, and
plaoe the patient on a tolerably high cane
seated stool, put throe go.si blankets to
gether and throw around him, enveloping
every part of him except the face, leaving
an opening at the side; now take an ordi
nary saucer and half fill with aqua dente
(Spanish rum), which place underneath
him, sot on fire and close the opening; re
plenish the saucer and continue the pro
cess until the sweat drops from the point
of the nose, at which stage gather the pa
tient, blankets and all, in your arms (as
he will be hardly able to walk or stand) aud
lay him on his bed. Throw aside the blan
kets and sponge him from head to foot,
back and front, with the aforesaid cold
rum. Give a dose of four to six of Wright’s
Indian vegetable pills at once, according to
nature and habits of the p itient, aud con
tinue sponging with tha cold s*um every
four or six hours for two days. After the
first dose has acted keep me bowels free
with the same pills for ut least u week,
taking a dose of two to three night and
morning. It is quite possible that other
pills may do as well and other rum, but tiie
above were the kinds then u-ed. The object
of repeated sponging with the cold rum is
to put back the strength of which the pa
tient has been divested at the start.
“The third day after the cnorvatiug rum
sweat process (the starting point) I was eat
ing chicken broth, soup or ste-v (I forget
now which) aud in a very few days was per
fectly well in common with tiie rest of the
ship’s company, fourteen of whom had gone
through precisely the same ordeal. The un
told wealth of tue "vast deep,” was en
hanced on the trip by just fourteen suits of
clothes, eacli suit worn by one and all when
first taken being thrown ovorboard. Every
suit worn prior to complete recovery was
slung alongside, towed to quarantine
ground, twoive or fifteen miles below Phila
delphia and reclaimed.
“it may be wed to state here that some
of the crew before the mast bad relapses
from exposure and hard work, but the same
process and treatment had the same etfect
iu each and every case, and all fully recov
ered before reaching Puiladelpuia.
