Putrid Sore Throat.

As this terrible disease is making its ap-
pearance in different parts of the State we
have taken pains to collect all the different
remedies which have come under our eye,
and will now give them to the public for
what they are worth. Whenever it is dis
covered that the disease has fastened itself
upon child, physician should of course
be called at once, but as this cannot be
done in all cases, and especially in the
country, and as the disease does its fatal
work in a very short time if not arrested, it
will do no harm to try some of the simple
remedies given below, until medical aid can
be procured. OF the virtues of the several
remedies we know nothing, but they are all
highly recommended.
II is said that good fresh yeast, taken in
ternally, is a sovereign remedy for this dis
ease, and it is claimed that it will give al
most instantaneous relief
A San Francisco paper recommends the
application of ice, inside and outside the
throat. BY this treatment, it is said, the
patient will be placed out of danger in
twenty-four hours.
The San Francisco Mirror gives another
receipt: In the early stages of the disease,
which is always accompanied by soreness
and swelling in the throat, the patient
should use simply solution of salt and
water as a gargle, every fifteen minutes
At the same time piece of flannel should
be moistened with a similar solution, made
as hot as the patient can bear it, W lich
should be bound around the throat, renew
ing it as often as the gargle is administered
and in the meantime sprinkle fine salt be-
tween the flannel and the neck. Also ust
inwardly some tonic or stimulent, either
separately, or. if the prostration be great
use both together. 1t is claimed for this
treatment, if used in the earlier stages o.
the disease, that it will effect a complete
cure.
The followingis the experience of a French
physician, established for many years in lla-
vana, which has recently been published
lie says: i" In the beginning, | resorted tC
vomitings, cauterzations, etc, which l sooI
found to be useless. Ice alone suIices fol
the treatment of putrid sore throat. ant
whatever might have been the progress o
the disease, it never failed in twenty-fon
hours to place the patient out of danger -
Then no more gargiings, 10 more vomitingS
10 more cauterizatons small pieces Of ic,
used on the outside of the throat, anC
sucked OF swallowed by the patient is tn,
only treatment would recommend to ma!
brethren of the medical facuty.'
Il will be observed that the treaimen
recommended by the havana physician cor
responds with one suggestion of a Sal
Francisco paper. 1t is exceedingly simple
and indeed, all of them are. Parents woul,
DO well to remember them, as they nigh
possibly be instrumental. at some time, il

INDIAN TRADIrIoY.-Among the Seminole
Indians there is a singular tradition regard
ing the white mans origin and superiority.
They say that when the Great Spirit made
the earth, he also made three men, all of
whom were of a very fair complexion and
that after making them, he led them to the
margin of a small lake and bade them leap
therein. One Immediately obeycd, and came
| out of the water purer than before he
! bathed; the second did not leap until the
water became slightly muddy, and when
he bathed he came up copper colorcd, the
third did not leap until the water became
| black with mud, and came up with its own
color. And then the Great Spirit laid be-
fore them three packages of bark, and bade
them choose and in pity for his misfortune
in color, he gave the black man his first
choice He took hold of each of the pack
ages, aud having felt them, chose the heav-
lest; the copper colored man then chose
the next heaviest, leaving the white man the
lightest. When the packages were opened
the first was found to contain spades, hoes,
and all the implements of labor; the second
enwrapped hunting, fishing and warlike ap-
lAaratus; thethird gave the W lite man pens,
ink and paper-the engines of the mind
the mutual mental improvemcnt-the social
link Of humanity-the foundation of the
white mans surcriority-Ex.

ADVANTAGE OF DIsuNIoN AGITATIoS.-The
Richmond Wing and several other Southern
papers state that the disunion clamor pre-
vailing in the southernmost States, has
caused the price of able-bodied negroes to
fall from $500 to S40O per head in Virginia,
Kentucky and Missouri, and the cotton and
sugar planters, by keeping up the excite
ment, are enabled to buy negroes at much
less money than they feI1aserly could.

A WONDERFUL EGG.-We saw at the paint
shop of Lance Nightingale, yesterday, an
unequalled curiosity. 1t was a hens egg
within the she'll of which, at the small end,
when broken, seven grains of wheat were
found much swollen, and greenly germi-
mating! This statement, strange as it may
seem, is absolutely true. Between the skin
of the egg and the shell an unusually large
vacancy allowed abundant room for this
wonderful vegetation. The shoots of the
grains adhered frmlF~to the skinny film in
closing the meat of the egg. The grand
question is, how did they get in there?-
