the local governments, all external coercion
should cease, and in the meantime it cannot
be reasonably supposed that there will be
much need of forcible Intervention. It will
ordinarily be enough TO know that such
power exists, and will be exercised If necess
sary.
AS the House so recently passed upon
measure of the kind indicated, it is not worth
while to enter into further details, but only
10 say that, in the judgement of the COM
mittee, testimony herewith presented fully
sustaIns the necessity for a resort TO such
extraordinary measures, and that without
the adoption of some such legislation the
day of restoration of peace and prosperity
in these unhappy States is greatly, IL not
indefinitely, postponed.
The report is signed by Representatives
Pike and Farnsworth. The other member
of the committee, Representative Cooper,
will, early next week, make minority re-
port.

Four HOURS UNDER THE SNow.-At Mil
waukee little boy, about nine years old,
named Edward Murphy, got buried in q
snowdrift in the street the other day, while
on his way to school. Hewas not missed till
afternoon, when search was made, and by
the assistance of his dog he was discovered
and dug out. Remarkable as it may seem,
he experienced little discontinue from his
exposure, and when taken out suffered little
inconvenience beyond stiffness of the
limbs. He sat down and the snow yielded
beneath him, makinga soft bed. The falling
snow had covered him up, yet he felt little
fear, as he said he knew his folks would
come for him. He said that all the time hi
was there (some four hours) he was very
warm, and the snow kept melting from be
fore mis- face, so that he could breathe quit
as well as he could out of the snow.

To RELIEVE ACoueH.-This is the season
for colds; and colds are the forerunners of
consumption. Attend seasonably to the
first, if you would avoid the last. For
years we have found the following prepare
ton the best for the cure or relief of a
cough that we have ever tried: Take two
ounces flaxseed, two ounces stick liquorice
half pound brown sugar, half pound
ralsins, one quart Of cider, Boil the whole
down to one pint; strain itUil and put it
aside for use. Whenever the cough is trou-
blesome, take table spoonful AT a time,-

CURIOUS FACTS ABOUT WATER.-The ex
tent to which water mingles with bodies,
apparently the most solid, is very wonderful.
The glittering opal, which beauty wears as
an ornament, is only flint and water. Vi
every 1900 tons of earth which landlord
has in his estate. 400 are water. The snow
capped SUBMITS Of Snowden and Ben Nevis
have many million tons of water in solidi-
fed form. In every plaster Of Paris statue,
which an Italian carries through our streets
for sale, there is one pound Of water to fouI
pounds of chalk The air we breathe con
tains FIVE grains of water to each cubic fool
of its bulk The potatoes and turnips which
are boiled for our dinner have, in their raw
state, the one seventY-five per cent. and The
other ninety per cent. of water. If maj
weighing ten stone were squeezed in {
hydraulic press, seven and half stone
water would run out, and only two and
half of dry residue remain. A man is
chemically speaking, forty-fve pounds
carbon nitrogen, diffused through five and
half pailsful of water. In plants we fint
water thus mingling no less wonderfully. 4
sunflower eyaporates one and quarter pint
of water q day, and cabbage about til
same quantity. A wheat plant exhales, il
175 days, about 100. 600 grains of water. Al
acre of growing wheat, on this calculation
draws and passes out about ten tons of waite
per day. The sap of plants is the mediuI
through which this mass of fluid is conveyed
1t forms delicate pump, up which tn
watery particles run with the rapidlty of
swift stream. By the action of the 50
various properties may be accumulated to IL
growing plant. Timber in France is, f'
instance. dyed by various colors being mike
with water, and sprinkled over the roots
the tree. Dahlias are also colored by
o similar process.

Monday mornings New York Herald
contained brief account of tragic AFFAIR
in Twenty-fourth street, near Broadway,
which resulted in the dangerous shooting Oh
John DAILY, living at No. SO Downing street,
by a pistol in tho hands of John Day, the
parties having been on somewhat intimate
and friendly terms for years past. Aiter
the shooting, Day made his escape, ana lor
the time being eluded the police, who imme-
diately went in pursuit of him. Two ON
GERS of the Twenty ninth precinct subse'
uuently learning that Day was living WIN
John Lawrence, at the foot of Eighty-sixth
street, East river, proceeded to his place ana
inquired If Day was at hsme. Mr. Law
renee said that Day had been gone for sew
eral hours, but he was expecting him In
almost every minute. Acting on this inior-
nation. the officers took seats, and alter
waiting till near two O'Clock A. M. n rap
was heard at the door.
Mr.. Lawrence opened it and admitted Day,
1 who, upon seeing the officers in UNIFORM
remarked, $50 you are after me, are your
but YOU can't have me, at the same time
drawing a revolver, which he pointed at the
officers head and snapped it. Fortunately
the cap failed to explode, when Day, instant
ly placed the the muzzle of the weapon
in his mouth and pulled the trigger
This time the cap exploded and drove
bullet entirely through his head, escaping
It the back of the neck. The desperate maj
fell to the floor and expired in few moment
afterwards. The shooting OF Day was 81
sudden and unexpected that neither the Off
GERS nor Mr.. Lawrence were able to interior
in time to save his life. Mr.. Lawrence too

Gamble was notified to hold an Inquest
The motive which prompted the decease
to make so desperate an effort to murde
