MauiC..Is from 5r. chase,

Chase thinks the Ohio election has not
killed him. So does Greeley. Chase ha:
issued DIS manifesto, in which he takes
back almost everything, and Greeley In
dOrses It. The public is informed that he
is a Conservative, that he never favored
Impeachment, never wanted eonfisca'
ton. and never urged negro suffrage in
Ohio. In short, that the result in Ohio
does not affect him at all. II is rather
ludicrOus 10 see Chase Ia such haste to re-
pudizte Radicalism and try to take the
wind out OF Grants sails; but it is not
the only funny thing that will be seen
before the quarrel for the nomination il
OYer.-BOstOn Post.
GEN. MCCLELLAN has taken passages
for himself and family, and proposes tC
sail from Liverpool for this country in
the steamship Persia on the 18th OF No
vember. He may be expected, there,
fore, TO arrive here about the 9th ofthst
mouth.

Arrest of James Swan.

The Memphis Bulletin, of the 18th inst,
says:
About two years ago a diabolical and de-
hberate murder was committed IN Fisher s
saloon, on Bank alley near Madison street.
which created a great deal of excitement in
the city at the time of its occurrence. The
particulars of the dreadful affair, as far as
could be ascertained, are to the following
effect: It appears that about two years ago
man named James Swan gave niece or a
cousin In charge of a man named Caldwell,
who was about to proceed to Arkansas, Cald-
well having agreed to convey her safely to
the house of her relatives. After the girl
got home she wrote to Swan, declaring that
while on their journey Caldwell had insulted
her in some way. Swan became indignant
at what had taken place, and learning that
Caldwell was in Fishers saloon, he went
there and found him In the restaurant at
dinner Some words passed between the
parties when Swan drew a knife and, it is
said, deliberately cut CaldwelIs throat with
it. The wounded man-died almost instantly
and Swan Immediately fed and took an
early departure from the city.
AS there have been a good many murders
in the city Of Memphis within the past few
! years. the particulars Of the above tragedy
/ were soon forgotten, but they were brought
! again to light a few days ago in a somewhat
mysterious manner While detective Sell
! kirk was in the State of Mississippi on some
/ business connected with the Police depart
ment, and while visiting Cedar Creek, he
was informed by the Sheriff of the county
/ IN which that town is located, that there was
a man named Swan living in the vicinity who
had committed a murder In Memphis two
years previously The detective made IN
/ quiries, but could discover nothing definite
and he returned to this city after transacting
the business which had called him to Mis-
sissippi. When he came back be resumed
his enquiries about the tragedy, and hearC
that Swan was expected to arrive in Mem
phis IN a few days. a watch was placed OF
Swans movements, and it was soon known
by the detective that be was In the city
Search was accordingly made, and strang
to say, the detective came upon him IN Fish
er's saloon, on Saturday night, sitting with
IN few feet Of the spot where the dreadfu
tragedy was enacted a couple Of years be

All that can be said about blood and gen
tie birth, is said by Bishop Washburn, in
these words; "High birth is a thing that
never knew any one to disparage, except him
that had it not; and never knew any one
to make boast Of it who had anything else
to be proud Of" This fine remark is said to
have been occasioned by an angry dispute
in the British House of Lords between a
peer of noble birth and one of new
creation

Petroleum oil for the Cure Of HcA-
Dr. Decaisne, Of Belgium, reports having
used successfully the oil Of petroleum IN
upwards of six hundred cases of itch. In
the great majority of cases the disease was
completely cured after a single friction. Ia
several after two, and in a very few instances
were three or four applications required.
The method failed in two or three cases only
and in these, sulphuret Of lime was neces-
sary to effect cure 1t is necessary, as
some military surgeons have thought to rub
in the oil with coarse towels and brushes,
but, on the contrary, the soltes6 brushes
should be used to spread the oil on the skin.
+ Dr. Decaisne, from experiments instituted
in the military hospital and garrison of Ant
werp, on the disinfeetion Of the clothing, be-
Iieves that this process is quite unnecessary.
/ Even If some OF the germs Of the itch insect
should adhere to the wearing apparel, these
are destroyed by the action Of petroleum
/ with which the person Of the patient is sat
urated.
