CURE FOR HYDRopHoB1A.--We have been re.
quesed to publish the following, said to be pre-
ventive of Hydrophobia, as discovered by French
physician, M. Cossar:
Take two tablespoonful of fresh chloride oflime,
in powder-mix it with half pint of water, and
with this wash keep the wound constantly bathed,
and frequently renewed. The chlorine of lime pos
sesses the power of decomposing this tremendous
poison, and renders mild and harmless that venom
against whose resistless attacks the artillery of
medical science has been so long directed in vain
1t is necessary to add that this wash should be ap-
piled as soon possible after the infiction of the
bite. The following are the results of this treat
ment: From 1910 to 1924, the number of persons
admitted into Breslau Hospital was 1874 of whom
only two died-from 1888 to 1924, the number into
the Hospital of Zurich, 223 persons We're bitten by
different animals ls2 by dogs of whom only four
died.

New ROUTE. TO RIo.-The Baltimore Amer;-
can, in mentioning the arrival of the bark w. II.
ID. G. Wright, which has made the voyage to Rio
and back in the brief space of 65 days, including
l0days' stay at Rio, says.
She Is believed to be the first vessel that has tried
the new route proposed by Lieut. Maury of the u
5. Navy, on his wind and current " charts. She
passed to the southwark of Bermuda and.made the
passage to Rioin 80 days, following the great circle
80 west
The discovery by Lieut.. Maury of region of
better winds along the great circle to Rio, is most
important one; for the passage to Rio, China and
all places south of the Equator is shortened some
ten or fifteen days.
No vessel should 90 TO sea without these charts
we understand that they will be given to any navi-
gator who will send the track Of his vessel with
record OF his winds and currents to the observatory
at washington; and who, upon application to that
office, will: be supplied with the charts, sailing
directions, &c.
We cannot close this notice without expressing
our high admiration of the success which has at.
fenced Lieut. Maury's efforts in this important and
interesting field of science; a success which emit
ties him to anshonorable place among the scientific
men Of our age, distinguished as it is by so many
brilliant additions 10 the fund of human knowledge:
asuccess which, in its application to the naviga-
ton Of the Pacific Ocean, seems destined associa-
ted as 1t is with the Hercuean energy of this great
nation TO give us at no distant day the mastery of
the commerce OF the world.

Bent and St. Vrain left Fort William, on the Ar

procuring supplies for Major Glpin's command, who
was on the pontof marching against The hostile In.
dams of the frontier. Bent and ST. Vraln having
accomplished the object of their mission left Santa
Fe on their return the LIST of April and fell in
with Major Gilpin and command, consisting of two
mounted companies, on the 9th, at the Canadian
Fork, The Indians had everywhere fled at the ap-
proach Of Major Gilpn and his small force. It was
the intention of Major G. to make the tour Of the
hostile country and return to Fort Mann about the
middle of May. We learn that every thing was |
quiet at Santa Fe, and the troops stationed there
are in fine health, Col Newly was in command. |
No further news had been received from General |
Price, and consequently nothing further of the affair
