DIPTHERIA WASH

Put all into a common sized tea cup OF
vessel which holds about four ounces. and
pour hall full of boiling water, stir well and
then FIJI full of good venegar Fill for use
when it settles. Makes swab by getting
little stick about the size of pipe-stem, notch
on the end and wrap a strip of cotton cloth
around it, letting the cloth project about
half an inch beyond the end of the stick, so
as not to jag the mouth and throat and fas=
ten with thread.
Swab the throat and mouth every half
hour if not bad. When the patient gets bet
ter. every two hours then when better every
four hours, and when still better two or three
times day, till we'll which will be till two
to seven days. Touch every affected spot, the
uvula. tonsis, and fauces, the whole iof the
back part of the mouth and top of the throat
and let the patient swallow little of the
wash each time you swab. Swabing causes
no pain, though the patient will gag and
sometimes vomit; but swab WELL and a
feeling of relief will follow every swabing.
Let every patient have separate swab
and wash, as the disease is undoubtedly infec-
tious. Keep the wash pIre by pouring what
you use into another 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 liniment on the throat
outside, once every three or four hours, and
keep q flannel cloth around the neck till
we'll;
Take Spirits Turpentine, ounce.
Take Sweet Oil, [or Linseed Oil l ounce,
Take Aqua Ammonia, (mix) ! ounce,
Shake before using each time,
Keep the bowles regular with Castor Oil.
Keep the patient in the house, but yentiil-
ate well.
The diptheria wash ard liniment 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 invaribly, as l use this for all common
sore throats. haEe never lost case, and
many have told me no money would induce
them. in these '' deptheria times" to be with

Letter From Whisky Greek,
In CAMP NEAR WHIsKYrowN.

MARCH 24rH, 1864.
I'D. COURIER Il have so many good things
to tell you, that | cannot hope to get more
than small instalment into this commuuica-
ton Firstly have only time to write a
moiety Of what l know and secondhand
lastly, you have not the room for it.
Quartz quartz is the cry, and during the
past week quantities have been brought in
to be pounded fine and washed that have
shown wonderfully rich in the finest of gold.
The supply Of the raw material is unlimited.
and the location all that is desirable. Your
correspondent has feet He is willing to di-
vide with any good looking editor. He be.
lleves the feet are rich. | believe the lode
that has been recently struck has already
been traced from this to Spring Greek. There
is room enough for more companies. Send
them out.
Now the great want of mill, or the means
of building one, is keenly felt That an in.
sestment ofthat kind would pay largely there
can be no doubt. Everything proves it, and
| wonder some man with money don't come
along and make himself rich.
In my last l told you that Mr.. Kesier con.
templated building MILL learn since that
time Mr.. K, instead of being enabled to con-
vert his heavy ditch interests into cash. as he
had calculated to do, has been compelled to
invest therein further sum, in order to con.
troll that interest and hence circumstances
have disqualified from carrying out the mill
enterprise. hope his present dilemma may
not be of long continuance and that he NAV
soon be fortunate enough to increase his cap
ital, so that he and this community may be
benefited by the new channel for investment.
| have arrived in from long tour in the
adjacent mountains. Am tired and don't feel
a bit like writing. Next week you shall have
a short history of my trip.
Truly yours.

AT length the grave was ready, the three
men were buried, and again we passed on.
As best we could we were slowly making

presently some Of the men came up: the Ian.
tern was relighted, and the glare revealed a
sight which pray God my eyes NAV never
look upon again. The body upon which nv
hand had fallen was that of corporal: both
legs were blown completely off That part
over which | had stumbled was the body of a
private with one arm severed. not entirely off
at the shoulder. Two trees of perhaps four
inches in diameter had been splIntered, one
about eight feet the other five feet from the
ground, and had fallen right where the
bodies lay. Within q circle of twenty feet
from these trees | counted seventeen bodies,
all, alas with blue jackets. | had hoped
among SO many to find some gray backed
ones.
How we buried these seventeen bodies you
would not care to know. The lantern gone
out, the candle which the men had procured
lasted but little time, but the moon had
arisen and the pale rays it cast through the
trees aided US in our task, though they added
much to the ghostliness of the the scene over
which they fell.
We found one body, that of young. light
haired boy, not over nineteen at the farthest
whose forehead was pierced by ball; in his
LETT hand he firmly grasped his rammer; his
right hand, or its forefnger, was in the watch
pocket of his pantaloons. We examined this
pocket and found in it small silver shield
with his name, company and regiment eu-
graved upon it. We took possession of this
memento, and fortunately finding fragment
of cracker box, marked upon it in pencil,
by moonlight, the inscription found on the
shield We buried him with two of his COM
rades, one of whom belonged to the Fifth corps
and placed the rude board at the head of his
grave in the hope that it would lead some pill
grim friend to the body. Since that day the
shield has been sent to the soldiers father;
its inscription was, s. L Caldwell, Compa-
ny D., llsth Pennsylvania Volunteers.
1t was half an hour after midnight when
we came into camp. and half an hour after
that, lying with our faces to the stars, dreams
enfolded US, and we we're as though no battle
horrors had ever panied and no battle dangers
had ever menaced US.

crat the following receipt and mode of treat
ment for diptheria. which he pronounces a
sure cure:
Please publish the following treatment
of diptheria. 1t has been used by myself
and others to whom they have given it, in
over one thousand cases, without failure,

the great difficulty of breathing and restless

Wisconsin, and he used it on himself and
family and neighbors with such wonderful
success that he requested me to send it to
you for publication. rs this horrible decease is

a SHREwD RECRUITING OFFICER.-A re-
crpting aficer in the city rece tly enlisted a
a man whom he had reasons to suspect
would desert as soon a. he got his bounty
and outfit. He had the shaky recruit dress
ed up in bran new uniform, jossy cap and
shining boots, and complimenting him on his
fre appearance. suggested that he ought to
have his photograph taken to send to his
sweetheart. Ire recruit agreed with the
cap tain that he would make a nice picture.
and went at once and had his shadow i'm
printed on card board. He showed the pic
ture to the officer. and asked him how he
liked it. The Captain coolly placed the pho
tograph in his pocket. and turning to his
recruit said: :. Now. you Internal .scoundrel,
| shall keep this, and if you ever desert, III
send copies all over the country, and secure
your arrest The soldier retired, not q little
disgusted at the conduct of his captain, but
his determination to desert was reconsidered,
and voted unsafe.-T Louis Democrat.
