dian King. And l thought the folks
looked at him and the Prophet about as
much as they did at me and the Presi-
dent. / gave the President wink that
this Indian fellow was taking the shine
OIL OF us a little, so we concluded we
wouldn't have him in our company any
more, and shall go on without him.
cant stop to tell you in this letter how
we got along to Philadelphia, though we
had pretty easy time some of the way
in the STEAMBOATS,. They took us up in
to great hall this morning as big as a
meeting house, and then the folks begun
to pour in by thousands to shake hands
with the President; federalists and all, it
made no difference. There was such Il
stream Of EN- coming in that the hall
was full in few minutes, and it was so
jammed up round the door that they
couldn't get out again if they were to
die. So they had to knock out some Of
the windows and go out tother way.
The President shook hands with all his
might an hour or two, til he got 50 tired
that he couldn't hardly stand it. took
hold and shook for him once in while
to help him along, but at last he got so
tired he had to lay down on soft bench
covered with cloth, and shake as we'll as
he could, and when he couId'not shake
hands nod to 'em as they came along. -
And at last he got so beat out, he couldn't
only wrinkle his forward and wink
Then they concluded it was best to ad-
journ for today.
And Pve made out TO get away up in
to the garret in the tavern long enough
to write this letter. We shall be off to-
morrow or next day for Newly and
ifl can possibly get breathing time G.
nongh there, shall write you again.
Give my love to all tho folks in Down
ingville, and believe me your loving nel-

The Nsw- York Board of Health have

The Nsw- York Board of Health have
issued pre- monitory circular to their lel-
low-citizens, which, ifduly regarded, will
produce the best results. They state
that the city enjoys an unparalleled ex-
empion from disease that the bills of
mortality have not for years, and proba-
bly, never before, been so low as mt pre-
sent. Over the causes of Cholera, they
believe that human power is very exten-
sive; and among these causes, they have
enumerated the folIowing:-
They are LIST, ardent spirits; Cd, gene
rsl or personal uncleanliness; Sd, excess
sive labor Of body or mind; 4th, expo
sure to excessive heat; 9th, impure or
stagnant air; 9th, crude indigestible food,
such as the great mass Of the summer
vegetables usually brought to our mar
kets, especially if eaten in the raw state;
7th, unripe or stale fruit; eth, fermented
liquors of all kinds, if too new or if stale;
9th, rancid or stale meats, whether dried,
picked, smoked, or recently slaughtered; /;
10th, stale or rancid butter, lard or oil; !;
llth, fresh fish Of all kinds, but more es-
pecially shell fish; l2th, the Incorporate
indu lgence of any Of the physical appe-
tites, or any of the passions or affections
Of the mind. To these circumstances
every individual can attend; and the
Board Of Health confidently trusts that
nothing further can be required to insure
a strict observance of injunctions, the
propr iety Of which reason and experience
alike concur to sanction.

JACK DOWNING,s LETTER.

TO Uncle Joshua Downing, Post Muster, up IN
Uownngville, in the State of Maine This to

land Courier, with care and speed
Phiiadciphio, June 10th, 1898.
Dear Uncle Joshua:-We are coming
ON full chisel. rve been trying ever
since we started to get chance to write
n little to you; but when we've been on
the road couldn't catch my breath hard
" long enough to write my name, we
kept dying so fast; and when we made
any stop. there was such jam round us
there wasn't elbow room enough ior
misketer 10 turn round without knocking
his wings of.
Pm most afraid now we shall get to
Downingville before this letter does, so
that we shall be like " to catch you all
in the suds before you think OF 1t. But
| understand there is "A fast mail goes on
that way, and | mean to send It by that,
so Pm in hopes you u get it time enough
10 have the childrcn's faces washed ana
their heads combcd, and the gals get ON
their clean gowns. And if Sargent Joel
could have time enough to cal out my
old Downingvile Company, and get ihen
uniform brushed up little, and come
down tho road as far as your new barn 10
meet US, there's nothing that would please
the President better. AS Tor vic'ua's'
most any thing wont come anss; we arc
as hungry as bears after travelling nun
drcd miles day. A little fred pork
and eggs, or pot Of baked boan' ana
an Indian pudding, would SUIT us much
better than the soIl stuil' they gave US
here iu these great cities. =,
when We got To Baltimore we found
Black Hawk, a little, old, dried up ln'
