HydrophObia.


The papers are already Announcing
eases of hydrophobia in various parts o
the country. Innumerable cures of in
cursble diseases are heralded through th'
newspapers and never heard of sgain
In our exchanges we note the following
which seems sufficiently rational, at least
to be worth a thorough trial; i-3
DR.. Baisson, Lyons physician, claims
1 fhydrophobia. lie relates that in attend
ing female patient in the last stage OF
the canine rabies, he imprudently wiped
hishand with acknowledgements
with her saliva. There happened to be q
slight scratch on the forefnger of the left
hand, and, confident of his own curative
system, the doctor merely washed the
part with water However, he was fully
aware of the imprudence he had commit
ted, and gave the following account of the
matter afterwards: - L-irf7 ~
believing that the malady would not
declare itself until the 14th day, and hay
ing many patients TO visit, he put off
from day to day the application of any
remedy, that is to say, vapOr baths. The
ninth day, being in his Office, he felt all
at once pain in the throat, and still a
greater one in the eyes. His body felt so
light that he felt as if he could jump to a
prodigious height, or that if he threw
himself out of the window, he could sus-
tain himself in the air. His hair was so
sensitive that he appeared able to count
each separately without looking at it.
Saliva kept continually forming in his
mouth. Any movement Of the air indi-
Gated great pain to him, and he was
obliged TO avoid the sight of brilliant
objects. he had a continued desire to
run and bite, not human beings, but ami
mails, and all that was near him. He
drank with difficulty, and he remarked
that the sight of water distressed him
more than the pain in his throat. He
believed that by shutting theeyes any one
suffering from hydrophobia can always
drink. The fit came on every five min
utes, and then he felt the pain start from
the fore-hnger and run up the nerves to
the shoulder. In this state, thinking that
hls course was preservative and not cura-
tive, ne took a Yapor bath, not with the
intention of cure, but of sufocating him
self. When the bath was at heat of 90 |
Q23 Fahrenheit, all the |
symptoms disappeared, as il. by magic,
and since then he has felt nothing of |

Suspension.

Suspension.
WAsH1yGTos, Nav 5.-The financial ex-
citement here has been increased to-day BY
the fact of the suspension of the banking
house of Maury & Co., who, it is said. arc
involved by that of the Merchants Nation
al Bank. 1t is stated in behalf of this firm
that there is good reason to believe it Will
soon be able TO resume operations. A check
for $1,000 was to-day refused payment, 1t
being fer deposit.
PardOns-
The President is ordering but few war
rants for pardons to those participating in
the late rebellion, as sufficient time must be
allowed for the execution Of those already
ordered during yesterday and to-day. Three
citizens of Alabama, three of Tennessee, SIX
Of Texas, two of Mississippi, two Of Louisi-
ana, and one of kentucky were ordered un-
der the $4,000 property qualification and
petty civil officer clause of the first ex-
ceptiol.
President johnson has signed the par
dons of Harry Hays, a Confederate General,

Cholera.
WASHINGTON, May 6.-The Department of
State has received dispatches from the
United States Consul at London, dated
April 21, wherein it is stated that the cattle
plague is decidedly and rapidly on the de-
crease, and expectation is general that il
will soon wear itself out and entirely dis
appear.
From the same source we learn q tele-
gram from New York, dated April s, stating
that the steamer England had just put intc
Halifax, for medical aid, with cholera on
board, supposed to have been communicated
by emigrants from Germany, He proceeds
to state that he can't learn that there is ol
has recently beer single case; therefore
he concluded the disease was not the result
of infection taken from any locality IN
| England.

in 200 bonds was contingent upon his sue
eessfullys disp0sing of these I,000; that
these last bonds remained. unsold in the
European market for some time and finally
were returned to New York, and therefore

There are some people so stupid that
they cannot conceive it possible to agree
with Congress in some things, and with
the President in others, without incon-
sistency. Upon such brainless sutomatons

mediate between the President and Con-
gress, and exercise the evil spirits from

A number of those people the Rspa6-

would spend more strength in pulling
