FROM ARIZONA. The st. Louis Republican pub
fishes letter of September II, from Tubac, from
which we extract the following: y
The Apaches appeared on the Eonoita on the
18th instant, and attacked party Of three men
near Gen. Wordsworth's ranehe seven miles from
Fort Buchanan, while driving up cattle. The In
dians, eight in number, suddenly appeared from
clump Of willows and, advancing toward the
Americans made strong asseverations of friend
ship and good will. Several Of the Indians we're
armed with rifles, while two of the Americans
were unarmed, and the third, Mr.. Joseph Ash
WORTH a farmer on the Sonoita, had only pistol.
The Indians commenced conversation, and while
talking with them, three Of the sayages elevated
their rifles and fred at Mr.. Ashworth, probably on
account of his being armed. Two Of the shots
took effect, one being a mortal wound. The In
dians Immediately left, running off fifteen head of
cattle, while Mr.. a, Is companions could offer no
resistance. Mr.. Ashworth reached the house Of
Gen. Wordsworth in a very weak condition, and is
still lingering, but cannot possibly survive. Word
was Immediately sent to Fort Buchanan, and o
scouting party was forthwith dispatched in par
suit. Tie Indians were overtaken about dusk, and
finding themselves closely pressed, lanGed six Of
the cattle and abandoned the rest which were re-
covered and driven home by the soldiers.

RETURN OF JOSEPH BARBIERE.-We are gratitied
tolearn, says the Memphis Avalanche, that our
friend and distinguished citizen Joseph Bar
biere, has returned to the United States. In an
nouneing his arrival the New York Herald says :;
Joseph Barbere, who was sent to Europe June
last as Commissioner from the Statesof Tennessee
on the question of direct trade,,' was passen-
ger by the Adriatic, and has taken rooms at the
Everett House. We learn that SO far as the initia-
tive is concerned, the mission is complete sue
cess Mr. Barbiere visited over two hundred and
fifty manufactures in Belgium and Germany,
and succeeded by personally presenting the sub
a trial shipment. Accordingly, the Henry leaves
Antwerp this month for Savannah Georgia, with a
cargo of assorted goods of Belgian and German
manufacture. These fabrics will be exhibited at a
fair to be held in December next at Macon. Thus,
then, this next commercial movement may be re-
garded as fixed fact. 1t remains to be seen
whether Southern merchants will sustain it.

The Kichsburg Wing of Thursday says;
The rain which set in on Monday continued unit
about noon yesterday. On Tuesday night strong
wind sprang up which did some damage in the city
in blowing down signs and fences and twisting tht
limbs off trees In the country, however, it proved
more disastrous. Trees were up-rooted, fences
prostrated, and the cotton damaged considerably
In Madison parish, La, we learn it was equally Sc

learn the rain poured down in perfect torrents
washing away several feet of the Grand Gulf and
Port Gibson Railroad, which prevented the trains
from running yesterday. II was still cloudy yes
terday afternoon and the prospects, as we write,
are Indicative of another installment of the watery
fluid.
From the Pike County Magnolian of Saturday
last we extract the following:
We have been suffering very much for rain for
the last four weeks, the ground having become
fclly as dry as at any time during the summer; the
potato crop has been materially injured, also tur-
nips and peas, the latter being almost an entire
failure. The rain which commenced Monday even
ing, has been very hard it continued oil day Tues
day and Tuesday night, accompanied all the time
with perfect hurricane, blowing down timber,
fencing, etc. Of course cotton has been consider
ably damaged, the ground being completely white
with cotton, having been blown out by the wind
and as the rain continues to fall very heavy, that
which is on the ground will be rendered almost
valueiess. t
We learn that there has been a great destruction
Of property and many lives lost occasioned by the
overflowing of the country between Manchac and
Premier. The loss of property consisted princi
pally in cattle. Several human bodies had beer
picked up, among them lady and two little child
rem. When the bodies of the unfortunate one
were found dog was sitting close to them and re
fused for some time to suffer the bodies to be mo

DIPFHERIA AND It's GuRE--ti1nple and EttieG-
ci0us Remedy for The DiSease.-Ihis singular dis
ease which has thus far seemed to battle the skill
of our best physicians has become SO prevalent
and has been so generally fatal, that any sugges-
ton in regard to its cure will hardly prove unin-
teresting Its causes are not known and, there
fore. all treatment has heretofore been merely eX-
perimental; but its pathognomonic symptoms are
SO diversified and dissimar thatin many instances
the throat of the patient Closes and he dies before
his disease has been discovered.
The diagnestic by which it is known from other
complaints OF the throat, is the formation of a
membrane which increases gradually until the pa
fient is literally strangled to death. 1t is some
times accompanied by liberation, and extreme
prosration Of the entire system, and at others by
neither of these symptoms yet in either case it is
equally fatal To arrest the formation of the mem
brane would. therefore, seem equivalent to curing
the disease and this in most instances may be done
in the following manner:
In the early stages of the complaint, which is
always accompanied By soreness and swelling OF
the throat, let the patient use simple solution OF
salt and water, gargle, every fifteen minutes.
At the same time mosten piece oil flannel with 4
solution Of the same kind, made warm as the pa.
tient can bear it, and bind it around the throat,
renewing it as often as the gargle is administered,
and in the meanwhile sprinkling fine salt between
the flannel aud the neck. Useinwardly some tonic
or stiInulant either separately or if the prostra-
tion be great, use both together The treatment
as may be seen, is extremely simple, and II used
il the earlier stages of the disease, will effect a
complete cure. [Uincinnati Daliy Press z1th ut
