FORTUNATE ESCAPE FROM A TERRIBLE RAIL
ARIZONA.

SAN FRANCISCO, April 16 Late Arizona ad-
vices state that the Leachee Indians attacked
near Tucson a large herd OF cattle en- route
from Texas to California, and succeeded in
stampeding the whole drove and killing two of
the herders. The depreciation exceeds in ex-
tent any heretofore committed in the terrific
ny. There are no troops in the vicinity, and
there is general outcry for regiment of
Cormick and the Legislative. Gen. Crittenden
with company OF cavalry, went in pursuit of
the Indians. Various other outrages are men
toned where savages killed the whites and
destroyed their property. The settlers fought
bravely, quite number of Indians having
been killed and several ranches were burned.

SunStrOke.

As the heated term continues, we
reproduce the following directions OF
treatment of sunstrOke, contributed
TO the New York Ledger, by an emf
nent physician: 1.-The first of these
suggestions is to the effect that in
every instance where person is found
falnting in the street on a hot day, the
first thing is to remove the person to
Us cool and shady place as can be
found, and, il possible, to where a
draughJ OF air is blowing at the time.
1t should also be understood there are
TWO morbid conditions resulting from
excessive heat. These differ somewhat
IN their symptoms, and require some
what different treatment The first
OF these occurs during hot weather
after undue eXertiOn on the part OF the
person affected. The man is faint,
perhaps unable TO move, though he
can generally be reused, he has a
FAINT pulse and a cool skin. Here
there Is SIMPLY loss OF nervous power
and relief Is promptly afforded Dy re-
moving TO cool, snady place, apply
ing cold water or ice water 10 the head
and administering iced brandy and
water, iced wine and water, or other
stimulants. In the other and more
TaJal form of this affection a different
set OF symptoms show themselves
Here the patient suddenly falls TO the
ground, completely unconscious, his
skin Is pungently hot and dry, his
breathing hurried, cOnvulsiOn are not
uncommon. and, If proper treatment
be not promptly TesOrted to, death
soon takes place. In this case, also,
the patient should be promptly remOv-
ed 10 shady and cool spot, perfectly
quiet, so that the crowd may be kept
OF without fail. His clothing should
Oe STRIPPED on and his whole body
rubbed from head 10 foot, pieces Of Ice
being kept under the arm-piEs- This
should be steadily perservered III until
the patient is restored, or until a
doctor arrives, or until it is plain that
the case is beyond recovery.

have for years, as a leader in public
affairs deemed him, like his green
backs, as promising more on the face
than they are worth in gold.
While the New York Independent

the New York Tribune was using his
name to Obscure the prospects of
Grant, Heartily and openly disagreed
with both of them, for 1 thoroughly

Ambition lifts some men toward

distinctions between right and wrong,
and leaves them, in the eagerness of
selfish desires, to become a prey of
bad men. have for years felt that
Mr.. Chase's ambition was consuming
the better elements of his nature.
I have liked Grant from the first.
Solid, unpretentiOus, straightforward,
apt TO succeed and not spoiled by sue
cess. wise in discerning men, skilled
in using them, with the rare gift
(which Washington had in a eminent
degree) of wisdom in getting wisdom
from others cOunsels-I confidently
anticipate that, great as his military
success has been, he will hereafter be
known even more favorable for the
wisdom of his civil administration.
The seven-fOld hUmiliatiOns and
recantatiOns through which Chase
was required to go for a Democratic
nomination only to see the smiling
Seymour looking benignly down up
on his lost estate, has no parallel
except in the immortal history of
Reineke Fuchs.
There will now be no third candi-
date between Grant and Seymour. 1t
will be a fair fight between rugged
honesty and plausible craft.
