AxTIDorx ron PoIsoE.-Dr. James
Edmonds, prominent London physician,
writes as follows 10 the London Times:
l inolsse : simple, safe, and accessible
prescription for the whole range Of acid
and corrosive poisons; which. if promptly
used. almost invariably saves life: ME-
two ounces Of powdered chalk or magnes-
il, or one ounce of washing soda, with .
pint of milk, and swallow at one d1augh,;
then tickle the back of the throat with .
feather or your finger. so as to produce
vomiting. Afterwards drink frequently
Of hot milk and water, and repeat the
vomiting, 30 as to thoroughly wash ont
the stomach. Any quantity Of chalk or
magnesia may be taken with safety. but
soda taken in large quantities is injurious.
l may also add the narcotics being excep-
ted, milk alone is an an:idote for almost
al poisons, and especially if followed BY
vomiting.

Cnrieus illustration ~ Red Tape.
About fifteen years ago. it happened. in
certain country Of Europe, that the in
spector-general Of garrisons. while visi-
ting provincial town, observed d SEN
tinel stationed at little distance, outside
the walls, keeping guard over some ruin
ed buildings in The suburbs. The Gen
eral inquired of the sentinel, with some
curiosity, why be was posted there. The
sentinel referred him to his Sergeant
The Sergeant bad nothing to say but such
we're the orders OF his Lieutenant. The
Lieutenant justified himself under the
authority Of the Captain commanding the
garrison. Upon being applied to for his
reasons for the standing order in question,
the commandant informed the Inspector
General, With much seriousness, that his
predecessor in ofiies had handed down to
him the custom as one of the military dn-
ties Of the place. A search was immedi-
steiy instituted in the srchieves of the
municipality, the result of which was to
obtain satisfactory proof that for the last
stood over the ruined buildings in the
same manner. With awakened interest
and curiosity. the General returned to the
capital. He there set on foot more elabo-
rate investigation among the State docu-
ments Of the minister OF var. After long
delay, it was discovered the ruined build
ing Of the Faubourg had been in 1890, a
storehouse for mattresses belonging to the
garrison, and that in the course of that
summer it became desirable to paint the
door. While the paint vas vet, guard
was placed outside to warn those who
went in and out; bas before the paint
was dry it came to pass that the officer on
duty was dispatched on . mission of i'm
portance, and left town without rememb-
ering to remove the sentinel For hun.
dred and thirty years guard Of honor
had consequently remained over the door
"A sacred .tradision, but onsvhich rep
resented at bottom no higher idea than
the idea ofwet paint. 4 London Review

@ A paragraph in our local column
the other day, in regard to an assault
committed ou our tewnsman, Mr.. Howard
Tucker, seems to have been understood
as casting some reflection on the Provost
Guard. 1t was not so intended, for we
can bear willing and grateful testimony
to the efficiency of the Provost Guard,
and the devotion of its members 10 the
duties which have been assigned them.
Nor did we intend any impeachment Of
the character of the soldiers in general,
for none have borne more frequent testi-
mony to the patriotism and good charac-
ter of our volunteers than the editor Of
GATE CRY. Still there are black sheep
in every flock. There was Judas num-
bered with the Apostles, an Arnold with
the compatriots Of Washington. and We
are sorry to say there are somc disorder
ly characters amongst our volunteers.
Besides, we are informed that bad citi-
zens sometimes put on soldiers clothes,
and in that garb commit misdeeds to
wreak their private ends, and have them
attributed to ssoldiers."
There has never been any ground for
any misunderstanding between our citi-
zens and soldiers, and we trust that the
mutual kind feeling which has been both
pleasant and profitable to both parties
will continue without any interruption.

are performing all sorts of deeds under
the guise OF soldiers. They have obtain
ed soldiers uniforms, and are performing
numerous deeds in the dark under that
guise, such as knocking down our citi-
zens, setting fire to out buildings, and
other acts of lawless violence. These
acts are occurring more frequeut of late,
and it is high time thatsomething should
be done to prevent them, and bring to
justice the scouudreIs, who, under the
euise OF our country's brave defenders,
have set all law and the rights of our citi-
zens at defiance.

The object OF an offer Of pardon or re-
mission is 10 induce penitsnce j; not 10
give immunity to crime. The purpose Of
the amnesty proclamation was to give the
rebels an opportunity and an inducement
to lay down their arms and return to their
allegiance; not to assure them Of inmu-
nifty in the end, no matter how long they
may persevere in rebellion. To accom-
plish this purpose, offers Of amnesty al
ways limit the time in which offenders
may avail themselves of the conditions of
pardon. Otherwise they operate as .
license to continue in crime, by furnish
ing a way in which the offenders can es-
cape all penslty, it in the end they fail,
and fall into the power Of tho Law.
p The practical defect in the Presidents
proclamation of amnesty is that it 10 mot
conditional in point Of time. It is an ab-
solute assurance TO rebels that no matter
how long they may continue to resist, or
what atrocities they may rerpetrate after
this offer Of pardon is made, yet, when
they have fought the rebellion to final
failure, or when in the fate Of war they
fall into our hands, they shall escape all
the penalties of treason and war, and
shall have their property and their fran
chise In the Government, and all the
rights of loyal citizenship restored to
them, BY simply taking the oath of ale
glance. This 10 not an inducsmsnt to
rebels at heart to repent, but it is en-
couragement and immunity to continue
the war SO long as there is hope of sue
cess.
This defect should be remedied by q
specific limit of time in which the rebels
may avail themselves of this remission.
The appropriate time to amend this is
now, when the spring campaign is about
to begin, which we expect 10 be decisive
of the fate of the rebellion.
Justice to the loyal people OF the South
demands this, for now the rebels who de-
stroy them in the absence Of our forces,
enjoy the protection of our Government
wherever they come within our military
occupation. The safety of the local gov
ernments requires this limitation, and that
il should elspse before elections are Or
dered in the insurgent districts, for now
rebel brigades may be furloughed to come
within our lines and vote, and then re-
turn to the army.
