Robert Small Commanding his own
Vessel.

vessel
Robert Small, the brave negro who
brought the steamer Planter out of
Charleston harbor some two years since,
has since that achievement been almost
constantly in the service of the Govern
ment. He was on board the Inflated
Keokuk as pilot in the first attack upon
Sumter by Dupont, and has since in the
same capacity penetrated nearly every
inlet and creek along the entire coast,
and been under fire for days, and some
times for weeks at time After serv-
ing on many vessels he again found
himself on the same steamer he brought
out of Charleston harbor A recent let
ter says:
A few days since Lieut-Col Elwell,
required the services of this vessel where
she would be liable to come under the
fire of rebel guns The captain, a
brawny white sailor, refused to 90 with
the vessel The moment the fact became
known at headquarters Lieut-Col ElUell
without consultation with any higher au.
thority, issued the following order, which,
for simple justice to brave and loyal
negro, officially acknowledged, has sell
dom been equaled in this or any other
department. 1t is unnecessary to say
that Robert Small took command of the
vessel, and faithfully discharged the duty
required of him.

"SIR: You will please place Robert
Small in charge Of the United States
transport Planter, ,as captain. He brought
her out of Charleston harbor more than
a year ago, running under the guns of
Sumter, Moultrie, and the other defenses
of that stronghold. He is an excellent
pilot, of undoubted bravery, and in every
respect worthy of the position. This is
due him as a proper recognition of his
heroism and service. The present cap
tain is coward though white man.
Dismiss him, therefore, and give the
steamer to this brave black Saxon

feeling Of relief viii follow every swab-

feeling of relief will follow every swab-
bing.
Let every patient have a separate swab
and wash, as the disease is undoubtedly
infe, Gus. Keep the wash pure by pour
ing what you use, each time, into anoth-
er vessel and also wipe off any matter or
slime that may be on the swab, every
time you take it from the mouth.
Rub the following linement on the
throat, outside, once every three or four
hours, and keep flannel cloth around
the neck till well:
Take Spirits turpentine, l ounce,
Sweet oil, Cor linseed oily ounce,
Aqua ammonia, (mix) l ounce.
Shake before using each time.
Keep the patient in the house, but ven-
tilate we'll The diptheria wash and lin
ement will be found sufficient for all
cases if taken in time; and should you
mistake any other sore throat for
diptheria, you will effect cure almost
invariably, as | use this for all common
sore throats. l have never lost case,
and many have told me that no money
would induce them, in these "diptheria
times TO be without the wash and lini-
ment; and when soreness in the throat
is felt, it is used and cure is always af-
fected. Your friend,

DIPTHERIA WASH.

Put all into a common-sized tea-cup
or vessel which holds about four ounces,
and pour half full of boiling water, stir
well, and then fill full of good vinegar
Fit for use when it settles. Make swab
by getting little stick about the size of
a pipe-stem, notched at one end, and
wrap string of cotton cloth around it,
letting the cloth project about half an
inch beyond the end of the stick, so as
to noti the mouth and throat, and fast
en- with a thread.
Swab the mouth and throat well every
half hour if the case is bad, every hour
if not bad When the patient gets bet
ter, every two honrs; then when better,
every four hours; and when still better,
two or three times day, till well; which
will be from two to seven days Touch
every affected spot, the uvula, tonsils
and fances, the whole of the back part
of the mouth and top of the throat; and
let the patient swallow little of the wash
each time you swab. Swabbing causes
no pain, though the patient will gag, and
sometimes vomit; but swab well, and q

EUpon our first page we have
devoted small space to original mis-

the publication of some fugitive arti-

THE REINDEER.-The Steamer Rem
deer returned to this port last week,
and has resumed her route on the
river, making three round trips each
day, running IN connection with the
f. & z. M. Railway. Her bottom
has been coppered to above the water
line, her engine lined up, and every
thing about her machinery put in the
best of running order. She is univer-
sally admitted to be the finest river
steamer on Western waters, is run as
much to accommodate as if she had
no pretensions of this character, and
inaugurating, as she does, a new era in
steamboating on the Saginaw, is par
ticularly deserving the countenance
and support of all who are interested
in the development of this section
Capt. SMITH is untiring in his efforts to
meet the requirements of the route,
and most admirably does he handle
his admirable craft.

morning at "A o'clock, the drill house

caught fire and was consumed in a few
moments, high wind prevailing at
the time. Luckily no other property
was destroyed. The engine and boiler
in the house were badly damaged
Loss $4,000, insurance $1,000. The
delay occasioned by damage to engine

more serious loss than the actual loss
