Cnre for Hiarophobsa.

The season of hidrophoba is at hand, and we
sh all doubtless be called upon to chronicle ere
long the deaths of several fellow being by this
most torturing horrible malady. Half a dozen
specifies for its cure have been given to the pub
lie from time to time, yet we do not remember
that Une single case of fconfrmed rabies has ever
been cured within the last dozen years. Still, we
are confident that in the Providence of God, there
is for every bane an antdote, and it becomes men
to aprove all things" until the remedy for Hydro
phobia shall have been discovered and universally
made known. A correspondent of the National
Era writes from Mllbury, Massa chusetts, as fol-
lows asz.g.z. .zs~-s-.s
"Aam now in my 80th year, and have obtained
what information could, both from observation
and critical study. has lately been discovered
that a strong decoctipn made of the bark of the
roots ofthe white ash, when drank as a medicine.
will cure the bite of mad dog. This undoubted
y is owing to'the fact that rattle snakes can ca.
sier be made to crawl over live Goals than white
ash leaves and they are never found in the for
ests where the white ash grows. Would it not
be advisable for druggists in our large towns and
cities to keep constantly on hand medicine pre-
pared from the roots of the white ash. 1t might
be the means of saving some valuable lives from
a sudden and painful death.

Another Boiler ExpsOsion-six Lives

1 o
| NEW YORK, July lst.-This morning just as
the steamer Ne,c World was starting for,Albany,
sne of the boilers fues burst, blowing open the
FIRE doors and rushing into the boiler room, and
thence out upon the main deck and engine room.
The following is the result of the accident:
Eli Buell., fireman. aged % years, resides in
Albany, killed. .-s...-- N-sza
John Foster, second pantry man, aged 2s,
jumped into the river and was drowned.
John Reed, fireman, died in the hospital.
James Porter died in the hospital.
Jno. Dumely died in the hospital.
Joseph Jesfc scalded.
Edward Martin, deck hand, will likely recover.
John Wiley, fireman, no hopes ofrecovery.
Washington Hewes, engineer, aged %, severe
y injured, and hopes entertained of his recov-
cry.
The following card is published by Mr.. Isaac
Newton, one of the principal owners of the boat,
to prevent exaggeration in reference to the acci-
dent to the NesO World this morning:
81 would say that it originated in a defect of
the flues making opening ofthe size of a man s
hand. The amount of steam was not the amount
usually carried when the engine was working.
No passengers were injured in the slightest de-
gree. One fireman, standing in front of the boil
er, was killed. and two considerably scalded Be-
yond this there was not the slightest damage done
to any one on the boat. [Signed]

Gold i'm Vermont.

Gold was found in the Green Mountains O
Vermont more than twenty years since, but il
small quantity Recently the search has been
resumed and some has again been found; but the
promise of more is still very far from fattering.
The following letter from the Rev. Zadock
Thompson, will be conclusive, as to the locality
of which it treats, by all those who fam iliar
with the authors competency to form just opin-
ion in the premises:
s'The gold is found in the range of talcose slate
and steatite, which is known to extend through the
entire length of the State from north to SOUTH
This range passes through Bridgewates, near the
middle, and the gold locality is but a short di s.
tance from the centre Of the township towards the
southwest. The gold is disseminated very spar
ingly in veins or seams of quartz and is associated
with the sulphuret Of lead iron and copper. The
strata of slate between which the quartz is inter-
spersed, dip some ifty-fve degrees towards the
east, and the seams Of quartz vary much in thick
ness and are somewhat irregular. Gold has been
found in only few Of these seams, and most of
in which several hands are now at work. This
is from ten to twenty inches wide, and some por-
tions of it are filled abundantly with ga lena or
suiphuret of lead. At blast made in this seam
while we were present, more than two hundred
pounds of pure galena were thrown out with the
very few small PARTICLES ofgod; but whether gold
or lead will be found in sufici quantities to pay
for working is yet preblematical." ."-Er

Thousands of dollars are now lodged in banks
throughput the State, that have not paid cent OF
taxes within4the last year. The machinery OF
the state government has been kept in motion
and its expenses must be met. For every dollar
that the banks withhold; which they are required
by law to pay as taxes. q dollar is anjnsty wrung
from the pocket Of the honest lahorer. Why
don't the Star explain this to its readers! Why
did he swallow his bravado about the .sunjust

his lips on the subject of denunciation! He pro-
poses opublish q campaign paper. and prolfers
free discussion on all the political questions Of the

A gentleman named Wilson, just returned from
Australia, informs the Stockton Journal that the
gold mines Of Australia are very much overrated,
and asa general rule, the average earnings Of all
the men engaged IN. digging does not exceed one
shilling per day. Hundreds Of Caiifornians are
scattered about the country, and most of them are
reduced to state Of penury from which they can
scene escape. The wages of labor only amount
to $l00 per year, and numbers of men who sailed
fqA6p this State have gone to Worison sheep ran
a y for their hoard and clothes. The American
is looked upon with distrust and contempt all
through the Colonies, and every system of perse-
cutien is adopted to make his. .Es unprcftable.
Children hoct him in the street, and landlords
maltreathim in public houses. In Australia eve
~ Landlord is a. police ofie er in his own house,
and consequently he can misuse an American
with impunty: American coin Is taken at a dis
count OF 90 per cent and it is hard to pass it even
at that, 50 great ansaverson have the English to
anything that bears the figure of the eagle and
stars. squalid misery and increasing crime are
associated all through the country, and when you
miss the beggar, the robber demands your purse.

this absorption has counteracted the influence Ct
