PREVENTION OF PITTING IN SMALLPOX The
London papers states that DR.. Startin, the senior
surgeon to the Gurney Hospital for diseases of
the Skip in that city, had communicated TO the
Medical Times very important plan, which he
had adopted for the last fourteen years, for pre-
venting pitting in small pox and, which,
he states has always proved successful. The
plan consists in applying the dcetus cantha-
rid'' or any blistering fluid, by means of cam
e-har brush, to the apex of each spot or pes
tula of the disease, on all the exposed surfaces
of the body, until bstering is evidenced by
the whiteness Of the skin in the parts subject
ed to the application when the fluid producing it
is to be washed off with water Or thin arrow
root Cruel.

AMERICAN WILD Flow ERs. 1t is fashion
able but false remark that in America we have
neither singing birds nor fragrant flowers
We are well supplied with singing birds; andi
it Is equally true that We have an abundance Of
fra grant flo wers. What can be more delightful
than the MayAower, or Trailing Arbutus-an
exclusive American, that refuses to be trans
planted The Bulbus Arethusa, which comes
a few weeks later, is exceedingly rich and aro-
matte in its capricious fits of odor. The Pago-
nia, a few weeks later has more constant and
swee,er scent though not SO spicy As June
wears away, our white pond lily comes into
blossom. Who ever satiated with smelling it

A Fearful Ride.

As the early coal train from the mines of the
Cumberland Coal and Iron Company was COM
ing dowr the grade, recently, about four o.
clock, the train ran over large boulder which
had rolled down from the embankment immedi-
ately upon the centre of the track. The loco
motive passed over it with slight damage, but
the balance of the train, including the tender,
had every brake ripped out from one end of the
aware of the fact, and seeing in moment that
the cars could not be controlled, going down
grade of over one hundred feet to tho mile,
and thinking discretion the better part of valor,
at once left the train. On it went, and at each
revolution of the wheel the momentum increas-
ed until the velocity became absolutely fright
full. The whistle sounded to put down the
brakes, but the only answer was wild, un-
earthly whistle, reverberating among the bleak
hills, scarcely heard before it died away or was
drowned by the ratting of the swift revolving
wheels upon the iron track. AT length the en-
gneer became convinced that something must
be the matter
Adjusting his valves, he began cautiously to
pick his way to the rear of the train. AS he
advanced through the thick darkness he tried
to put down the brakes of first one and then an
other of the cars All were broken off or dam
aged by the rock on the track. He at lengtl
felt his way back to the two cars at the rear o
the train. Pulling out the coupling-pin, h
felt sure that he could control them when de
tached from the train. But they were in tb
same condition. All were broken. No contrc
could be exercised over them. The train wa
