[ From the New York World. A Yankee Speculator in Paris. Illittory of an American ltunkins; House in J’arlu-NoCapUal but the | t'ouiiilence of Conntrymen—Tlie Great Norton In tho Police and Bankruptcy Courts. Paris, June 0. Tito history of nn American banker in Paris I translate from the Gazette des Tri bufiaux, adding not one word (though there be many to add) lest comment be attribu table to malevolence; Given a capital of if 1,000 ; spend $38,643 80 for expenses of first establishment; pocket, $30,008 00 for personal expenses. Mercadet (the name of a rt;:sh speculator iu one of De Balzac's plays) is not the only fellow capable <>. solving tills problem. TUB AMERICAN NORTON lias reached the solution. True, he adopt ed Mercadet's method, for the result is a de ficit of' $104,200 40. At least, this is all that it has been possible to ascertain, for his books were most, incomplete, and, to use the expert’s expression, “ impenetrable.” Our Yankee*, ,:i course of time, took into copartnership Cork, an Jinglish artist painter. It seffms the American was a most splendid fellow. Appointed a Com missioner of New York State to the Uni versal Exhibition of 1867, it is said no body but those persons who saw can form any idea of the magnificence of his recep tions in his mansion in the Avenue des Champs Elysees, of his dinners, of the splendor of his silver, porcelain and glass. Cook, too, lived sumptuously, and, like his partner, kept carriage and horses. Why did Norton take a partner? These are the reasons: Towards tlie end of 18GG, Norton established a commission firm, Hue Auber, Paris, unde r the style of Norton & Co.— There was no company. His only capital ■was SI,OOO. His capital would not long have sustained Ills transactions had not American travelers supplied his cash office, and so enabled him to live. Norton paid these American travelers from day to day according to their requirements, and in re turn for their money gave them traveling letters of credit. As lie usually stipulated for a delay of three months to !*a.y the bills drawn on his letters of credit and obtained the use of the money meantime by charging an unusually low rate of commission, he put in his pocket live' profits made by this capital. This speculation, however, was not of a character to make him rapidly a millionaire, so he entered into partnership ■with Cook, an English artist painter, allied by his wife to a wealthy family. Cook brought the partnership $50,000, of which $40,000 were paid dp at once. When Cook entered the partnership Norton’s liabilities exceeded his assets some SBO,OOO or SIOO,- 000, a detail he neglected to lay before his partner. On tlie oilier baud the English artist had the tastes of his profession, and was deeply in debt by a speculation made iu telegraphic apparatus, an invention whose patent lie had bought bnt not paid for, so that by the help of the extravagant life led by each part ner less than a year after the partnership was formed, the firm was put, into liquida tion. It was soon afterwards declared bankrupt. It has been shown by evidence collected that our American, when bank ruptcy existed iu fact, sent his valuable furniture, silver plate, porcelain and giass. Moreover, the American Senate appropri ated to him to defray his expenses as com missioner to the Universal Exhibition the sum of #IO,OOO. This amount of money has escaped the clutches of the creditors. Norton says he has been defrauded of it through the manmnvers of a faithful cor respondent. Imprisoued for two mouths at a time when the hopes of war did not allow the realization of the hopes given to the trustee of the bankruptcy to cover the deficit, it liecame Hecessary to liberate Norton temporarily when the imminence of the siege gave reason to fear that he might undergo too long an imprisonment without being brought to trial. He took adyantage of bis temporary liberty to re gain temporarily his farnitnre, his silver plate,'his porcelain, and his glasses. He continues to be temporarily absent. As our American bos been ordered for trial before the Coart of Assizes for fraudulent bankruptcy, it is not impossible that Nor ton’s temporary absence from France may be indefinitely prolonged. As for Cook, he is charged with mere bankruptcy and like wise glitters by his absence. Despite their absence, the American has been sentenced by the Police Court to three years, impris onment, and tlie Englishman to two months. Norton will be tried, all absent though he be, by the Assizes Court, In a few days, for fraudulent bankruptcy. Serious Charges.— The New Haveu Journal of Friday says: " The committee appointed by the last General Assembly to examine the assets of the Hartford Life In surance Companies, as compared with the returns made to the Comptroller as the basis of taxation, has made Its report, and it makes an exhibit that some of these companies have concealed, year after year, the full amount of their assets, and have escaped taxation on nearly ten million dol lars —to be exact, #9,836,000.” mn Daily infifififfliafit: | Bobtou Correspondence of tbe Troy Times. Married for Money. Sad Story of a Young Boston Lady. A funeral procession passed by yesterday. A young man told me a story that I think lias a peculiar sadness about it. At Sara toga last season-at one of tho largest balls held at the Grand Union Hotel was a young lady with the most charming and fascinating manners and graces. Her toil ette was equally as pleasing.* She was the belle of the ball—an honor accorded her withont dissent. Fler attendant during the evening was a young man dressed al most gaudily and bearing himself with all the distastefnl self-conceit of a brainless millionaire. He was the son of a Boston leather dealer. He met the lady at Sara toga for the first time last season, and she, by direction of her parents, who were also wealthy, anil who insisted npon the ar rangement, became his ailianccd. Previous to this she had met a yonog gentleman, also of Boston, of the utmost respectability, of thorough honor and integrity, but with out fortune. To him she had been some thing more than a friend, in fact, almost a betrothed. He was young, had risen by his own stern efforts, and was, it is said, possessed of sterling and promising abili ties, which in time must have won him wealth and perhaps distinction. On the return of the lady from Saratoga last season, her engagement prevented her from further Intercourse wi£h her first suitor, and he was dismissed. His grief was piti ful. lie strove not to reverse it by word or action, but the very efforte he so laborious ly made exposed the porgnancy of his wounds. The lady lived with her husband in the suburbs of the city, at a large and costly residence, for one month after their marriage. By that time the abuse of the husband and his gross sensuality and in decency compelled an immediate separa tion. He was incontinently shipped to Europe, where he still remains, and the young wife was left to gradually decline in health until death ensued ; but not before, she had reproached her parents for driving her to the alliance which wrought such early ruin and blasted such bright hopes and expectations. As the funeral proces sion passed up a public street, the first ad mirer of the body, while watching with blanched cheeks aud moist eyes the sad cortege, fell to the gronnd while suffering art attack of hemorrhage of the lungs. He was carried into a physican’s office near, where he died before the body of the one lie had ty> tenderly and truly loved was laid in its last resting place—a victim to a true and holy passion. True it is that There’s a bliss beyond all that the minstrel has told, VVkcu two that are linked in one heavenly tie, With heart never changing, and brow never cold, Love on through all life, and love on till they die. One hour of a passion so sacred is worth Whole ages of heartless and wandeiing bliss; And oh. il there be an Elyainm-ou earth, It is this, it is ibis. * One can hardly pity the remorse of the young lady’s parents, and yet humau sym pathy will not refuse an “ amen ” to their tearful cry of anguish. SCI UNTJJf'IC MOTJCS. DatciTK.—M. Bouchardat announced, at JLrecent meet.inr- of the Olyrob-nl Krvim ir. of Paris, that he had succeeded m reprodu cing dulcite, artificially, by treating invert ed milk-sugar with nascent hydrogen. Tills dulcite is identical with that which is obtained from the manna of Madagascar. Ei.bctric Currents Ortainrd by Tor sion.—M. Volpicelll has a memoir, in the Paris Com,pies ltendvs, on electric currents' obtained by the bending of metals, from which it appears that all metals, on being bent or twisted, develop an electric current, and that copper exhibits the phenomenon in the highest degree. Tiik Odors of Plants. —Mr. .T. Britten in a communication t.o 7 he Gardener's Chronicle on the odor of plants, gives the following conclusions regarding the geo graphical distribution of sweet-scented plants: A large proportion of pale and white blossoms are fragrant, and it is ascer tained that these predominate in northern regions. We may therefore conclude that the relative nnmber of odorous flowers is greater toward the poles than toward the equator. It, would seem that the too pow erful action of light and heat is opposed to the emanation of the odors of flowers, and we see many specimens which are scarcely fragrant during the day become so in the evening or during the night. But. If the odors emitted by the blossoms are more frequent in the North, the reverse is the case with the essences inclosed in the glands. Plants with fragrant leaves, aro matic fruits, and wood penetrated with es sential oil, are scarcely found except in warm or tropical climates. (’iirr for Small-pox.— A Berlin jour nal announces that Dr. Zueler, Senior Physician at the Charity Hospital of that city, has there adnainistefed xylol in cases of small p?>x with the mhst complete suc cess. It, is given tn doses of from three to five drops for children, and ten to fifteen drops for adults, every hour to every three hours. It is harmless, since as much as a tcaspoonfnl has been taken atone time.— The most convenient form of taking it is in capsules, and a pharmaceutist of Berlin has already prepared capsules for the market. The theory of its action is that it is taken by the blood, and thus acts as a disinfect ant.. It is hoped that no time will be lost in testing this new remedy in America.— Absolute parity of xylol is said to'lie im portant., as analogous compounds do not possess the same power. It may be inter esting to state here that xylol, or xyleue, Is simply a hydro carbon, containing, accord ing to the new notation, eight atoms of carbon, and ten atoms of hydrogen. It be longs to the benzol series. Benzol, or the hydride of phenvl, contains six atoms of carbon! and six of hydrogen. The hydrate of phenyl, called phenol, is identical with carbolic acid, the most powerful disinfect ant known-. It consists of six atoms of car bon, seven of hydrogen, and one atom of I oxygen. Only five bodies are so far recog nized as belonging to the benzol group.— They contain carbon and hydrogen atoms as indicated by the following: Benzol, 6 C., 0 II.: culuol, 7C, 8 H.; xylol, 8 0., 10 H.; cumol, 9 0., 13 1L; cymol, 10 C., 14 H. Xylol, or xylene, is nearly colorless, and has a faint odor, but not resembling that of benzol. It boils at 139 degrees, audits specific gravity is 866. There was an affecting scene in the United States Court in Montgomery, Ala., the other day, when the defendants in the case of the Uuited States vs. Young et al ., for alleged Kakluxing, were called up for sentence. The verdict had been rendered hardly fifteen minutes when the Court in quired if the defendants had anything to say why sentence should not be awarded against them. The old man Young, In a calm and manly manner, free frdta braga doclo, protested his innocence of the charge, but a%he referred to his wife and four daughters dependent on him, now sixty three years of age, his voice was broken, and there was not in the court room a manly heart but what was wrung with sorrow as the picture arose before them of thl3 aged man in a Tar-off’penitentifiiry, and his now widowed wife and helpless daugh ters shelterless and friendless, driven from their little home, which the #5,000 fine will cause to be sold, as well as the little scanty pittance which was all this old man was enabled after a life of tell to save from the wreck of the war.” The Pacha of Egypt goes to Constanti nople on a visit to the Sultan of Turkey next montp. AUGUSTA, GLA.. SATURDAY MORNUSfG-, JUNE 39, 1873. '’ V * 1 ' * - ‘ I _. j • , Sunstroke—lts Symptoms and What to Do. In I/ippincoU'g Monthly, for July, a dis tinguished physician, Dr. H. C. Wood, has a very elaborate article on the symptoms and treatment of sunstroke, and as this is the season when attacks of this kind may be expected, we make the following very useful extracts from the article for the benefits* ofthe public: SYMPTOMS OF SUNSTROKE. The symptoms of unstroke are at once uniform and diverse—uniform in their geueral outline, and diverse in their espe-* cial details. In the ordinary form—that which may be spoken of as the cerebro spinal variety—after more or less distinct warning iu the shape of such premonitory symptoms as headache, disordered vision intense weariness,etc., the subject becomes unconscious, sometimes suddenly some times more gradually. The laborer will fall senseless in the street; in the hospital the comrades of a sick man will have their attention attracted by his heavy breathing, onls to find that natural sleep has passed by insensible degrees into fatal coma or stupor. With this insensibility there is always associated intense heat of the skiu. To t he hand the surface feels intensely hot; nor is the sensation a deceptive one—the heat of the body exceeds that attained in almost any other affection. A thermometer placed in the armpit, instead of indicating 98 degrees Fahrenheit, the temperature of health rises generally to 109 degrees, in some cases even to 113 degrees. From the peculiar pungency of this heat the techni cal term color mordax or bitiDg) heat, has been applied to it. The surface may or may not be pale; very often il is dusky, with a livid bluish purple hue. The eyes are sometimes wild and restless, sometimes fixed and glaring, sometimes dull with the leaden hue of ap proaching death. The pupils at first are generally contracted, in the latter stages they are often widely dilated. With these symptoms of intense fever are others be tokening nervous disturbance. In some cases these are of the nature of paralysis, the patient lying apparently in the deepest sleep, not a muscle moving, not a limb raised, not an eyelid quivering. In other cases this peaceful though deadly calm is replaced by a wild tempest.—raging delir ium, wild screams, as though of iDtensest agony or uncontrollable passion, furious convulsions, following one another like the r'lplif discharges of a galvanic battery, throwing the body in all directions, twist ing it into every conceivable sham*, the countenance mocking the derisive laughter of tlie maniac, or knotted into au expres sion of agony. In another and perhaps more common class of cases tlie nncon sc-ous patient is simply restless, muttering incoherent words, tossing about, on tbe bed, showing, perhaps, also signs of local paralysis. There appears to be a curious! connection between this variety of symp toms and the difference of races. The An glo Saxon rarely becomes wildly delirious,; whilst this is the most common symptom amongst the Latin nations. Frenchmen thus attacked often become melancholic, and develop an irresistible tendency to sui cide, so that soldiers oh the march will suddenly shoot, themselves. Whatever be the form of the attack, gen nerallv as the fotnutes pass the symptoms are intensified ; the quick pulse or the first onset becomes more and more feeble, the j labored breathing noisy and stertorions, the surface darker and darker as respira tion fails; and death at last, is brought about by asphyxia, or sometimes by the Tlie one great symptom, the centre of tlie j group in all forms of the disease, is th* high temperature. If the skin be cool the case is not sun-stroke. After death the high temperature continues, and is said sometimes to even rise higher. Decompo sition follows with exceeding rapidity. On post-mortem examination the only ap pearance of striking importance ' are—a condition of blood similar to that seen in low fevers, a rigid, contracted state of the heart, in which it feels almost like wood, and a great tendency toward the rapid but transient development, of that peculiar stiffening which at, some time after death takes possession of the muscular tissues. Now that the true nature of the disease is kuowu, the method of treatment becomes more obvious, ami we learn not, merely what to do, but also what not to do. As heat is the cause of the symptoms,common sense, points to the abstraction of the heat in some way as the mode of cure. And here, again, vivisection comes into play. I have taken an animal, comatose, paralyzed by heat, apparently dying, and plunged it into a bucket of cold water. The temper ature of the sufferer at once rapidly’fell until it reached the normal point, and just in proportion that, of the water in the bucket rose. As the animal cooled its re spirations became more regular, the un steady whirr of the heart was stilled, by and by the eyelids were lifted, and ont from the glassy eye came the beams of new life. If the period of unconsciousness had been short, the animal was in a few hours appa rently well as ever; if long, the animal would recover sufficiently to recognize its surroundings and to struggle for release; bnt when allowed to escape, the paralyzed limbs and the slow, imperfect progression indicated the profound injury the nervous system had received, in a few hours the an imal would be dead. The lessons of these experiments are too plain tube overlooked. Whatever Is to be done in this disease must be done quickly. Clinical as well as experimental observa tion enforces this doctrine. There should in such cases be no waiting for the doctor. .The remedy Is so simple, the death so iml nent,, that the good Samaritan passing by should save his brother. The good Samar tan must, however, have a cool head to be useful. Not every man that falls uncon scious on a hot day has sunstroke. There is fortunately one criterion so easy of ap plication that any one can use it. Goat once to the fallen man, open his shirt bosom, and lay the hand upon the chest; if the skin be cool, you may rest assured that, whatever may be the trouble, it is not sunstroke. If, on the contrary, the skin be burning hot, the case is certainly sun stroke, and no time should be lost. The patient must be carried to the nearest pump or hydrant, stripped to his waist, and bucketful after bucketful of cold water be dashed over him until consciousness be gins to return or the Intense heat of the surface decidedly abates. The Lee Monument. —The Richmond Enquirer r in a description of the memorial monument to General Robert E. Lee, the model for which has last been completed by the sculptor Valentine, of that city, says: The Impression made upou the tnind is one of pleasant surprise at beholding, as it were, the recliulng warrior, not dead, but sleeping—peacefully dreaming, with a smile upon his lips—and so perfect Is the allu sion that one imagines he can see the figure move and breathe. It is as he was in life. There is nothing of the repulsive or awful presence of death about the face, the form, or the position. The triumph of the artist is complete. The grand jury of New York city has taken steps t,o suppress the growing ten dency of deformed street beggars to ex hibit themselves for alms. They also call attention to the -great increase of crime caused by the violation of the excise law, In keeping open places for the sale of wine and liquors on Sunday. Campaign cockades have already ap peared in New York city, and the fancy stores on Broadway and Sixth Avenue realize that Greeley rosetts are quite a saleable article. Enthusiastic ladies find these pretty ornaments of white satin rib bon especially becoming, and before the autumn thousands will have been sold. THE AUGUSTA EXCHANGE.
