be as interesting to the military critic. as
srleyous to the phianahropist. Both France
and Austria will be able to march almost all
their ENORMOUS forces 10 the seat OF war.

by any demonstration on the Rhine. itmay
be said that for sometime to come at least,
the influence of Germany will have the et.
feet Of leaving both sides tree TO use all their
strength against each other. That they will
use it there is no doubt.
The seat of war adjoins the territory Of
each, railways and steamers transport their
troops easily, and most Of the lung marches

normous masses can be taken 70 the country

were merely making change OF quarters.
With this facility OF transport, and this pow
e. Of using the whole Of their great standing
armies, We must expected to see two hosts
gathered to together on the plains of Italy
such as no iva single States ever yet opposed
TO each other. The numbers we do not pre-
tend even To guessat. The French are push.
ing troops over the Alps, and loading their
hips Of war with soldiers fer Genoa. The
supply OF food will be the only limit to the
number which can thus be brought into the
field. The French probably have their in

however, no doubt that the Power which sent

Terrific Fight Nth a Raiilesnake.

We have hitherto supposed the DAY long

recently transpired within a short drive
from tie court. house. Same of the old resi-

miles distant from Peoria, AMI which was
destroyed some seven or eight years since.
During the past seasnn anotNet house was
erected near the same iocstipn. and all that
has remained as relics OF the Did hotel was
a partially tiled excavation for a cellar and
two well preserved brick risterns, which
had been covered up. Last week The pro-

sophv of fa;nting ht is that the heart fails
TO send the trooper supply Of blood to the
brain If the .rson is erect, that bloed has
to be thrownuphill; butiflying down It has
to be projected horizontally. which requires
less power, as is apparent.
Ifa person swallowing poison, deliberate-
ly OF by chance, instead ofbreaking out into
multitudinous or incoherent ordinations,
despatch some one for the doctor meanwhile,
run to the kitchen. get half glass OF water
in anything that is handy, putinto 1t tea
spoonful of salt and as much groud mustard,
stir il an instant, catch firm hold OF the
persons nose, the mouth will soon fly open
then down with the mixture. and in second
or two up will come the poison. This will
answer better in large number Of cases than
any other. If, by this time, the physician
has not arrived, make the patient swallow
the white of an egg, followed by cup of
strong coffee, because these nulllty larger
number Of poisons than any other accessible
articles. as antidotes for any poison that may
remain in the stomach.
iii limb or other part Of the body is
severely cut, and the blood comes out BY
spirits and jerks. be in hurry or the man
will be dead in FIVE minutes; there is nc
time to talk or send for a physician-say
nothing, out with your handkerchief. throw
il around the limb. tie the two ends together
| put stick through them, twist il around
Tighter and tighter until the blood ceases t.
flow. But to stop i does no good. Why
Because only severed artery throws blooc
out in jets and the arteries get their blood
from the heart; hence to stop flow, ths
remedy must be applied between the hear
and the wounded spot--in other words, above
the wound. lfa vein had been severed, th'
blood would have flowed in regular stream
and. on the other hand. the tie should be ap
piled below the wound, or on the other sid,
Of the wound from the heart, because til,
blood in the veins flows towards the heart
and there is no need Of so great hurry.
