His widow, in her season OF mourning kent
herself very secluded, hardly receiving calls
from her m ost intimate friends. Shortly after
his death a concert troupe, managed by one

his Wife made the acquain lance Of the widow

DISMAL SWAMP PRAr-The New York
Tribune has long article on peat-the peat
of the Dismal Swamp, the lakes, and Canada.
The article discusses peat in all its adaptations
as fuel. 1t has been tried in Canada for rail.
roads with dne results. It Is economical and
efficient. 1t requires less amount IN bulk of
fuel than coal, and maKes an intense heat.
Railroad men regard IL as great auxiliary to
ratroad interests, lot only as fuel but as afford
ing new article Of transportation. II is also
considered as suitable for iron works as tuel
for "smelting purposes" For parlors and
chambers it is said TO be admirable It is
burned in small quantities, and requires to be
replenished often; but yields q more intense
heat and makes less ashes than coal or wood.
Dismal swamp is probably the largest available
peat deposit in America, If not in the world !;
and Its availability arises in great measure
from the fact that a canal large enough for
small steamboats, traverses its center.

THE INTERNATIONAL WORKINGMRNs' Con-
GREss, which was recently held at Lausanne,
in France, has terminated. The principal sub.
iects discussed were the part OF men and wo-
men in society, the education OF children, edu-
ca'1on iE general and freedom Of ed ucation. On
the first point the Congress came to the almost
unanimous conclusion that for ply ysologicaI
and hyg1en1c reasons, as we'll as on economic
and moral grounds, nothing could justify the
employment Of woman es an Industrial la.
boTer. With regard to the transportation of
goods its sentiment was that the transport SER
vice should not be in the hands OF private per-
sons. but in the whole body Of the people, and
should be carried on at net cost, without
view to profits and dividends. The principle
Of capital punishment was repudiated. AS to
property in land the French and Italian dele
g1te5 supported the principle OF ndividual
property. the Belgians upheld that of q common
property; the English and Germans took the lat.
ter view to some extent. No decision was made
on the subject, however, and 1t was postponed
until the next me citing. which is to be held at
ton the Congress resolved as follows First
"The Congress urges upon the members Of the
International Workin gmsn's Association in the
various countries the necessity OF using their
influence to induce trades societies to apply
portion of their reserve funds to the establish.
ment OF cooperative productive concerns, as
the best means of utilizing the credit which
they now give to the middle classes and gov
ernments tor the purposes of their own eman-
cipation;' and, second, that "those societies
operative production OF their own, ought. by
means OF their funds to facilitate the tlblish.
ment and carrying on OF such concerns, and
use efforts to establish system of credit based
upon the securities and means of those who in.
veke its aid, and to found a system Of CO. opera.
tive banking which would enable them to is.
sue promissory notes irrespective OF metallic
reserves"

CHOLERA FUNGUs.-Last year Professors
Klob Of Fienna and Thome Of Cologne, both
probably aware Of the labors of Paccini, but
dobb btless unaware OF the in Investigations of the
others, published the results Of certain micro
scopic examinations ofthe objections Of cholera
patients. Their works read like different parts
of Paccini's treatise. All three found and de-
scribe a cryplogamic organism of the lowest
form, with power Of propasating itself wi h
marvellous rapidity. These results were
placed before the Weimar Conference, and
both gentlemen recei we'd the highest commen-
dations, which properly belonged to Paccini.
Another and very large class of physicians
put but little stress on the purging theory OF
cholera. but compare the cholera poison to
some material substance like CrotoR Oil, for it
is well known that ten drop doses Of Croton
oil will produce rice water discharges like
those of cholera, with coldness oflthe surface
shrunken fingers, while the skin is even cior
Tue than in ordinary cases OF true cholera,
some cramps occur, the pulse becomes i'm
pereeptible, and death ensues. Again, Messrs.
Legros and Gonjon were enabled, by means OF
an apparatus containing ice and salt, to con.
dense the air Of some crowded cholera wards
in the Persian hospitals, and thus procure
liquid like Croton oil?), which caused symp-
toms similar to those Of cholera, when given to
dogs.
