Dreadful DEATH FROM HYpRopHoBIA

DREADFTL DEATH FROM HYDRoPHoBIA.-
man named Joseph Wright, who was bit
ten about six weeks ago by rabid dog, died
in Cincinnati on Wednesday from hydropho-
bia. The Enquirer says:
On the Sunday previous he became stark
mad. He raved at times, and tore his hair
and flesh, and foamed at the mouth, and
screamed like demon, presenting sight
terrible to behold. 1t was necessary to bind
him TO the bed to prevent him from commit
ting violence upon himself and often in his
exquisite misery he prayed to be killed at
once and relieved Of his suferings. The
sight of water, or the mention of the term,
throw him into spasms, and he fell trembling
and grooming upon the floor. Those who
witnessed the poor mans madness say they
never knew before how supremely wrotched
man may be. 1t was awful to contemplate,
and would have startled and Mortified the
dullcst and most unimpassioned nature At
last death came in mercy and touched him
with the hand of eternal stiffness.

SCENE IN GENoA.-A gentleman of
high social consideration in Genoa, lately
mado the discovery that his wife was
unfaithful to him. Waiting his oppor-

err. and politely showed them them the
way to the street door, which he closed
after them. He then sent the servant
for an undertaken, ordered the arrange

invitation to his friends, and over the
empty coffin performed the ceremony for
departed wife I This over, he deliv-
cred the light burden to the hearse, and
once more addressing bis friends, called
for their congratulations upon the fact
that he was now widower-upon which

The gayeties which thus introduced his

UNNECESSARY TORTURE.
rAcrs ron rnr rNcREpuLous.

Tho agony suffered by the limping pilgrim
who neglected to boil the peas he carried in
bis shoes as penance, was nothing to the
horrible twinges, the racking tortures which
rheumatic patients suffer. We pity the OBJ
stinacy, or the ignorance, or the prejudice,
whichever it may be, which has thus far pre-
vented them from resorting to those great
specifics for rheumatism, HoLLowAY's ONT
MENT AND PILLS. 1t is curious, in a coun-
| try where almost every one can and does
read the newspapers, that facts of the ut
most importance to the health of thousands
should bo overlooked or dsregarded by any
Of the suffering class whom they Immediate
| ly concern. Yet, soft Is Almost daily we see
persons moving painfully through the streets
with contracted limbs and joints rendered RE
gid by disease, to whom the penetrating and
laxative unguent invented by Professor Hol-
loway would be worth its weight in diamond
dust. In the Russian hospitals, it has super
seeded every other external remedy for rheu-
matism. Nothing else, say the French sur
geons employed in those institutions, seems
to have the slightest effect on the terrible
forms of the malady which exist in that in
hospitable climate The results of its use
in this country are, we are assured no less
satisfactory. Warm lamentations should, in
all cases, precede its application, as by this
means the pores of the skin are opened. and
the process Of absorption greatly facilitated.
The rapidity with which the Ointment dis
appears under the hand while being rubbed
in, is astonishing. Tho inflamed flesh or in
durated muscles seem TO drink in the cooling,
soothing, relaxing unguent, as swiftly as the
desert sands imbibe the genial rain. AS an
auxiliary to the Ointment in rheumatic cases,
the Pills are sail to be invaluable, and we
can readily believe it All external dsor-
ders more or less interfere with the functions
Of the internal organs, and the presence of
disease on the surface always involves bad
condition of the secretions and tho blood. 1t
is by the correction Of these functional de-
rangemonts, we presume, thatrthe Pills assist
the cure. Such is the theory of the distin-
gushed inventor of the remedies, and as it is
consistent with common sense, (which is moro
than can be said of all medical theories,) we
have nothing to object to it.
One thing is certain with regard to rher-
matism in this climate: In nine cases out
of ten, it defies the Irregular" treatment
Colchicum, the stereotypcd prescription, is
more baneful to the constitution than mercu-
~ itself; and though it may, by its paraly-
zing influence, so far benumb the parts affer-
ted as TO alleviate the pain, we have never
known an instance in which it has thorough
ly eradicated disease. On the other hand, it
is claimed that Holloway's remedies expei it
utterly; and this claim Is fortified by volumes
of direct and uncontradicted testimony

We have no disposition to weary the pa
tienee Of our readers with continued alusieni
te the defeatof the Post Office Appropriation
Bill, and the great Inconvenience consequent
thereupon. But the ridiculous efforts mad,
by loeofoco journals to transfer its response
bility from the democratic party to others
we cannot permit to pass unnoticed 1t il
admitted that the failure Of that measure viii
make an extra session Of Congress absolutely
necessary. Seeing this necessity, and tho
probable disastrous consequences upon the
prospects Of the pseudo-democracy in 1860
which would result from an extra session, To-
cofoco politicians-rcgarding "no imposturo
too monstrous for the public credulty"--arc
resorting to every expedient to screen the de-
mocracy from an accountability, and to hold
some ons else answerable at tho bar of pub

operations Of the most important branch Of
the government. In a democratic Journal
before us, we are told that 81,
There Is no other branch Of the govern
ment so intimately connected with The people
as the postal branch, and yet the Representa-
tves Of political organization that has dis
carded its old name and claims to be tie peo-
pies parry, have done all that lay in their
power to embarrassand break up that division
of the public service Mr.. Buchanan has to
choose between calling an extra session, or
stopping the mails, or finding some way to
get the postal service of the country perform
Cd without an appropriation by Congress"
II the reader has observed closely the Ian
guage Of this extract, he win very readily
perceive why II is that locofoco journals are
80 anxious to induce the belief that the de-
mocracy are not responsible for the present
condition of the Post Office Department.
With an overwhelming majority in both
brahshes of the national legislature tho dem
ocrats had absolute and arbitrary control of
the legislation of the country, and If they
had only wiled it, the necessity for an extra
session of Congress would not now exist.
But they didnt sia IL, and now they must
shoulder tho responsibility Of necessitating
the call Of an extra session attended with
difficulty and expense as it will be--or Of
virtually cutting Off the postal service from

We're found in the woods between DR.. Moore's

inquest held, but there is no doubt that it
was whiskey and exposure to the storm, that

count, and came very near doing the same
service for another.
