CURE FOR HYDRoPHoBIA.

The season of hydrophobia is at hand, and
we shall doubtless be called upon to chronicle
ere long the deaths of several fellow beings by
this most torturing, horrible malady. Half a
dozen specifics for its cure have been given 10
the public from time to time, we do not remem.
Der that one single case of confirmed rabies has
ever been cured within the last do zen years.
Still, we are confident that, in the Providence

remedy for hydrophobia shall have been discov-

Of her children. 1t is supposed, as we learn BY
gentleman from Petts, that the negro who
committed the murder, in the first place intended
violence to the lady, but meeting resistanc Q,
he struck her with club that had a projection
on it used for killing hogs. Mrs. X. it is
thought attempted TO run to the pile to get the
axe, TO defend herself, las she was found dead
near it, when he gave her blow with the club,
and the projecting part Of it entered TO her
heart. He then killed, Gas he supposed, the
two boys that were at home. But good fortune
prevented the accomplishment Of the dioboicaI
deed. One Of the boys came to, and vas able
to tell the name of the fend who perpetrated
the deed; negro belonging to some one Of the
neighbors. He was arrested-and we under

summary punishment on the wretch. The PEG.
