Domestic Infelicity In llronklyn.
Yesterday afternoon Henry Lee, of
East New York, was walking down
Fulton street, near Bands, with the
wife of James Coyne. Coyne seeing
them, approached, and, it is alleged,
commenced beating his wife. Lee re
treated, whereupon Coyne pulled out
a revolver and shot at Lee, but miss
ed him. Coyne was then arrested. At
the station house he denied firing, but
as examination of the weapon showed
that one of the chambers was empty.
His wife stated that she did not live
with him, nor did she intend to. The
prisoner was committed to answer.
The examination in the case of Mrs
Mary Terrell, of Myrtle avenue, who
attempted fas alleged.) to poison her
husband by putting ratsbane (phos
phoric poison,) in his tea, took place
yesterday before Justice Riley. Her
little boy testified to being sent for
the poison. Her husband testified
that his tea tasted so bad that be could
not drink it, and on looking at it
closely lie saw smoke and flashes of
fire coming out of it. Frank Murray
the drug clerk, testified to selling:
Mrs. Terrel the rat paste. Justice
Riley held her to wait the action of the

THE DAILY TIMES.
Having been consulted by the Gov-
I ernment as to the advisability of ml
, mitt ing woman into the medifcai pro
| fession, the General Medical Council
of Loudon, composed of twenty-four
of the most distinguished doctors and
surgeons of the kingdom, has return
ed a favorable answer. After a pro
longed and warm discussion, the
bod y resolved to instruct its presiding
officers to reply that if the Govern
ment should deem it proper to ooun
ternaneo women doctors no objec
tions could bo offered by the profes
sion, “provided the education and
examination of the female students
of medicine should be conducted en
tirely apart from those of male Stu
dents.” The final conclusion reached
in the discussion was pointedly ex
pressed by one of the last speakers in
the following words: "1 have little
fears that those women who shall
rush into the profession will attend
principally upon men, they will de
vote themselves to childbirth and at
tendance upon women and children.
I would object very strongly to teach
ing males and females together in
mv subject of anatomy, but. I believe
I should have no difficulty in instruct
ing females iu the whole subject that
belongs to my department, provided
sufficient precautions wore tukened,
and supposing 1 am not called upon
to instruct them along with males.

(Superiority ui southern t'orn.
A lady writes to the Chicago Trib
une that it is not the skill of the cook
which makes Southern corn-cake bet-1
ter than Northern. She says:
“Northern meal, ground in quantities
packed away before it is sufficiently
dry, sours or oeeomes Ritter, and
moreover, corn raised under a tropi
cal sun is much sweeter than ours
It is also very tender. Its sweet
ness and tenderness obviate, the ne
cessity of fat or butter for shortening,
and any form of greese would deprive
the corn ot its pure taste. No sweet
corn is raised in the South ; common
corn is sweet enough to do away with
that necessity. Thoeorn-meul which
Dinah uses is, consequently, sweeter
audteuderer than any winch comes
to the hands of our fan-haired Norrth
ern cooks.”
It is not generally known that South
ern corn is better adapted to the
transportation by sou than Northern
corn. The Southern gourd-seed corn
being lighter and more, floury, is less
liable to heat and mould on ship
board than the hearvier flint corn of
the North. The Southern corn being
more bulky given a large measure
ment to the bushel of fifty six
pounds, and is consequently more
merchantable titan Northern corn.
We remember hearing a Baltimore
corn merchant, engaged extensively
iu the West India corn trade of that
port, say t hat in consequence of bear
ing transportation better and giving
a larger measurement to the com
mercial bushel (fifty-six pounds),
prime Southern corn always ruled in
i ho foreign market, two to iiiree cents
higher than the best, Northern corn.
Corn is eminently a Southern staple,
in which our farmers can, and should,
successfully compute with the North
and West. - .Sue. Hews.

Bpci*l to the TiUI.-, by XA. r.iljn. 1
Macon, Ga., August l.- A sad fatal
ity occurred in Jones county about 2
p. m. Monday. A protracted meeting
was in progress and the casualty oc
curred between the morning ami
evening services. After a vivid flash
of lightning Rev. J. W. Butts was
discovered unconscious; but after
prompt use of restoratives is consid
ered out of danger. Henry G. McAr
thur and John Phelps were found
not far from the church, struck dead
by the same flash of lightning. The
neck of young Phelps and nearly
every bone in his body were broken.
McArthur had no bones broken. The
shoes of both the men were torn off
their l'eet.
About a month ago David Hudson j
was killed in Twiggs county by a ne
gro named Joe Redding. Redding
was arrested for the crime, and after
a preliminary examination was com- !
ruittedto.jailtoawa.lt a trial before I
the Superior Court. About 12 o’clock
on Saturday night, a party of di.s-j
guised men, variously estimated at
from tiiirty to sixty in number, wentl
to the house of the sheriff and jailor
of the county, entered his bed room,
and with drawn pistols, seized him
and demanded the keys of the jail.
Ho had only the keys to the outer
door of the jail, which, as lie could
do nothing to prevent, he gave up.
The party then blindfolded him and
proceeded to the county treasurer’s
house, awoke him and took him to
the Court-house and procured keys
to the cells of the jail. Borne twenty
or thirty of them entered the jail and
took Joe Redding out, then sent
Messrs. Finch and Evans back to
their homes. In about five minutes
these gentlemen hoard six or seven
shots fired. On Sunday morning Mr.
Finch and a Mr. Smith found the
dead body of Joe Redding hanging to
the limb of a tree, with seven bullet
holes in his back and face.

Memphis, August 4. The latest re
port front the river below here states
that Apperson’a plantation of nine
. hundred acres, at Fort Penny, oppo
site Friar’s Point, is submerged. A
crevasse was made at Desoto, front
twenty-seven miles, below here, on
the Mississippi side, l>ut iho planters
were endeavoring to stop it. Plant
ers are all at work strengthening the
levees. The water is pouring through
Oldtown crevasse. The stench from
submerged corn fields is said to bo
j terrific, owing to its souring.
Wasiiinuton, August 4.- -The Ohio
river has risen four feet at Pittsburg
and Louisville. The Mississippi river
lias risen nine inches at St. Louis and
one foot at Cairo, where it is 3J feet
above the danger lino.
St. Loiuh, August •!. -The river hero
rose steadily until ton o’clock yester
day morning, when the gauge marked
31) feet and 10 inches. At that hero it
came to a stand. This is the highest
water since 1903, by nearly a foot.
There was trouble at East St. Louis,
whore the engineer and street in
spector, with large forces, worked all
night, throwing up temporary em
bankment, which prevented the junc
tion of tho river with the Cahoka
creek channel and saved hundreds of
houses from inundation. Most of tho
people remained up all night with
their valuables about them, prepared
for a hasty flight. As it was, tho
occupants of a settlement at the
foot of Main street, were forced out.
The Pittsburg, Dyke, by which St.
Louis receives grentor part of her
coal supply, was partly carried away
and left impassable. Tho St. Louis
signal corps attribute the excessive
ruin to tho rapid evaporation of tho
unusual and extraordinary quantity
of snow on the mbuntain slopes of
Montana, and throughout the North
west. The service men say that from
their reports, nothing can save tho
lower Mississippi country from an
overflow. Some of t.hoir advices are
to the fact that at separate points be
low Memphis, the water is only an
j iaeh or two below danger to lives,
j River men, however, are more san

New York, August 4. A dispatch
from the Black Hills country says
Gen. Crook, in ids order directing
miners to leave by August 15th, sug
gests Unit they assemble at tho mili

Camp Haincy, cm French Creek, on j

resolutions to secure to each, when
the country shall have been opened,
the benefit of his discoveries, and
labor he has already expended.
It is stated that the notice of trial
served on Beecher’s lawyers by Til
ton’s attorney is purely formal. No
tice, it is said, does not indicate the
necessity that anew trial will be
pressed. It is pro forma documents
drawn up and served because tho last
trial did not, result in a verdict.

A I’PLF/TONS’
American Cyclopedia.
New Revised Edition.
Entirely rewritten by the ablest writers on every
subject. Printed from new type, and illus
trated with Several Thousand Engravings
and Maps.
The work originally published under the title
of The New American Cyolopjedla was com
pleted iu 1863, since which time the wide circula
tion which it has attained in all parts of the
United States, ami tho signal developments which
have taken place in every branch of science, lit
erature and art, have induced tho editors and
publishers to submit it to ar* exact und thorough
revision, and to issue anew edition entitled The
American Cyclopjkdia.
Within the last ten years the progress of dis
covery in every department of knowledge has
made a row work of reference on imperative
want.
The movement of political affairs has kept pace
with the discoveries of science, and their Iruitfu
application to the industrial and useful arts and
the convenience and refinement of social life.
Great wars and consequent revolutions have oc
curred, involving iiuliouui changes of peculiar
moment. The civil war of our own country,
which was at its height when the last volume of
the old work appeared, hus happily been ended,
and anew course of commercial and industrial
activity has been commenced.
Large accessions to our geographical kuowl
edge have been made by the indefatigable ex
plorers of Africa.
Tho great political revolutions of the lust de
cade, with the natural result of the lapse of time,
have brought into public view a multitude of new
men, whose names are in every one’s mouth, and
of whose lives every one is curious to kuow the
particulars. Great battles have been fought ami
important sieges maintained, ol which the de
tails are as yet preserved only in the newspapers
or in the transient publications of tho day, but
which ought now to take their place in perma
nent and authentic history.
In preparing the present edition for the press,
It has accordingly been the aim of the editors to
bring down the information to the latest possi
ble dates, and to furnish an accurate account of
the most recent discoveries in science, of every
fresh production iu literature, and of the newest
inventions in the practical arts, as well us to give
a succinct and original record of tho progress of
political and historical events.
The work has been begun after long und care
ful preliminary labor, and with the most ample
resources for carrying it on to a successful term
ination.
None of tho original stereutypo plates have
been used, but every page has been printed on
new type, forming iu (act anew Cyclopiudia, with
the same plan and compass as its predecessor,
but with a far greater pecuniary expenditure,
and with such improvements iu its composition
us have been suggested by longer experience and
enlarged knowledge.
Tho illustrations which aro introduced for the
first time in tho present edition have been added
not for the Hake of pictorial effect, but to give
greater lucidity aud force to the explanations in
the text. They embrace all branches of scieuce
und of natural history, ami depict the most
famous and remarkable features of scenery,
architecture and art, as well as the various pro
cesses of mechanics aud manufactures.
Although intended for instruction rather than
embelishmeut, no pains have been spared to in
sure their artistic excellence; the cost of their
execution is enormous, ami it is believed they
will find a welcome reception as an admirable

MALARIA!
Read, Reflect and Act.
If one grain of Vaccine Virus, taken from tho
cow's udder aud kept dry tor years, then mois
tened. aud tho keenest point of a Lancet dipped
iu it and drawn gently on the arm, so as not to
draw tho blood, will so impregnate and change
the entire system as to prevent the party so vac
cinated from taking the most loathsome of dis
eases (small pox) for an entire life; again, if the
Celebrated Eucalyptus treo will change an unin
habitable malarial district into a healthy, salu
brious clime, by simply absorbing from the at
mosphere the poison malaria, why will not the
proper remedy, properly applied, neutralize and
destroy the poison, known as malaria, and thus
enable parties to inhabit malarial districts with
impunity?
We claim that there is such a remedy, and that
we have prepared it, aud applied it, aud proved
it iu our Anti-malarial or Euchymial Belt—aud
that persons who will wear this Belt may inhabit
the, womt malarial districts without the fear of
having any diseases arising from malaria; such bh
Chills aud Fever, Billious or Intermittent Fever,
Yellow Fever, Jaundice, Enlarged Liver aud
Spleen, Indigestion, Constipation and Hem
orrhoids, ami that it will cure all the above dis
eases, except the worßt cases of Billious and Yel
low Fever.
This 1r called an Anti-malarial or Euchymial
Belt, as it correct* the humors of tbe oody and
produces a healthy action, invigorating the sys
tem, and thus enabling it to pcr.orm its various
duties without fearing the effects of malaria in
the least.
It lias been tried in thousands of cases without
a failure.
They can bo obtained from the proprietors in
any quantity at the Rowell Building, junction of
Broad and Peachtree streets, Atlanta, Ga.
Price for a single Belt $3, or $5 with a guaran
tee that it will cute or tho money refunded.

is stamped upon them.

Atlanta, Ga., June 5,1875.
Messrs. Lovk A Willson: Gentlemen—ln April
last 1 was taken sick with regular Fever and
Ague, having it every alternate day. After it had
run on me for two weeks, I was induced tp try
one of your Anti-malarial belts; so 1 discarded all
medicine, and Bimply wore ono of your Belts, as
directed, and my Ague became lighter each suc
cessive time thereafter for some three or four
times, when it left me entirely, with a good appe
tite aud clear skin ; and in future, it I should ever
have a Chill or Ague, I would want one of your Pads,
and no physic. Wishing everybody that may be
so unfortunate as to have Chills and Fever may
be fortunate enough to get one of your Belts,
I am, respectfully, etc.,
W. J. Wilson.
Atlanta, Ga., June 3,1875.
Dns. Love A Willson:
On the first day of December last I was taken
with Chills and Fever in Thomasville, Houthwes
teru Ga„ aud was treated for the same by three
eminent physicians who were able to stop it only
for a few days at a time. It mado such inroads
on iny constitution that my physician pronoun
ced me to bo iu the first stages of consumption,
when I accidentally met up with Drs. Love & Will
son’s Anti-malarial Belt, which has entirely cured
me. I have had but one chill since, and that was
tho first day after putting it on. lam now in as
good health as 1 ever was in my lile, aud think
this Belt a God-scnd to the afflicted.
J. M. Mathews,
Cannon House, Atlanta, Ga., June 4,1875.
Borne nine years ago I contracted malaria in
Savannah, Ga., from which I have suffered, at
times, ever siuce, until I met up with Drs. Love It
Willson’s Anti-malarial Belt some three months
ago. 1 have worn it continually, and have had no
chill siuce, and find my general health, which
lias been poor, much improved. I would recom
mend it to others suffering with malaria.

The people of thiß town don’t chill worth a cent
yet. 1 have sold two of tho pads, and that I did
the very hour I first received them, one to one ol

and other remedies, aud that they failed till they
put on the pad; since then they have had no more
Chills or Fever, aud they recommend them to ev
erybody. *•** Alex. Mathews,
