Prevention Of the SMALLPOX.

Much stress is laid upon vaccination as d
preventive Of small pox. 1t is no doubt very
good, but it is not by any means certain in
its results. Two Of the very worst cases Of
smallpox in this city were Of parties who
had been vaccinated about four mouths pre-
vious to the attack, and to all appearances
the vaccine matter had operated admirably.
On the other hand, many persons who have
been frequently, and for long time, exposed
to the worst possible forms of contagion, and
who never have been yaccinated, have escap.
ed scatheless. These facts, and the other
fact that many who have taken the disease
have never been exposed to it, knowingly,
suggest the idea that the disease now raging
in this city may bo epidemic in its character
as well as contagious-as much of the former
as the latter. Certain it is. that il does not
act as the smallpox usually does, and is COM
plicated with other diseases or maarious in
Huences which materially change the usual
character of the disease. But though yaccina.
tion NAV not in all cases ward off the disease,
it is believed that it can be absolutely kept
at bay-kept clear from house and person, in
spite of any exposure-by the proper use OF
powerful disinfectants. The best disinfectant
and preventive of disease of this character
known, is carbolic acid. Some physicians be-
lieye that clothing used by smallpox patients
can be SO thoroughly disinfected by this acid
as to become perfectly harmless. However
this may be, it will no doubt keep the disease
away from persons and dwellings. For this
purpo an ounce of the ordinary acid, in
solution. should be mixed with sixty ounces
of luke warm water. and this mixture occa.
sionally sprinkled over the clothing worn on
the person, and on carpets of dwellings,
Thus prepared, person may brave the small
pox with almost absolute impunity. A half
ounce vial Of the acid, stopped with COM
mon cork, and kept standing in room, will
keep the small pox contagion out if it is per
vading the atmosphere. Half dollars
worth Of the acid, in solution, placed in four
or five walls, set in different parts of house,
will serve to keep dwelling clear of the in
fection, as it is ordinarily dispersed through
the atmosphere. With the means of thorough
disinfection SO cheap, people should generally
resort to it, in order to see if they cannot by
its use stay the raging epidemic. 1t cannot
do any harm. and we believe it will prove
successful. ul.-Cdu.

How 1T WAS DoNE-Accounts from the
South explain how Democrats carried Geor-
gia, Louisiana and Arkansas. AT Savannah,
Macon. New Orleans, Baton Rouge, Little
Rock and many other places, Republicans
were diven away from the polls. or forced
to vote for Seymour and Blair by Democratic
ruffians, who were armed to the teeth In
many localities Republicans were shot down
at the polls for daring to vote for Grant, and
if the record of the assassinations and out
RACES committed in the South on election dav
could be written, the civilized world would
stand aghast with horror at the spectacle.

Romance In Real Life.

Several years ago, young lady in Taze-
well county was wooed by young man.
He obtained her consent, and the consent of
the old folks, but three days before the wed
ding she took freak into her head, and went
off and married another. The young man
was heart broken, and packed up his effects
and went to New York city. There be hid
his grief, buried himself in business, and en-
gagged in speculation, was successful, and
became wealthy. A young sister of the girl
that had Tilted him, moved by sympathy,
commenced correspondence with him to
endeavor to mitigate his sorrow. The cor
respondence became interesting The Young
girl grew up, and as years rolled on, ripened
into a great beauty. The sight of her photo
graph awakened in the young mans bosom
the love that be had supposed crushed for.

Her father was a widower and was anxious to
get married himself as soon as bis daughter
was out of the way, so he urged the match
forward. The means of the lover now ad.
mitted brilliant wedding, and preparations
were made for it. They were to be married
last Wednesday in style, and depart imme.
diately for New York. A few DAYS ago the
expectant bride received letter from her
betrothed. stating that he bad entered into

so that he could not possibly be with her at
the time appointed, and asking her to delay
the ceremony for day or two. He also re-
ferred to the time when he had expected to be
united to her sister. Provoked to think that
be still remembered his former love, the
young lady wrote him in passion, and sit
ting down at the same time wrote to a cousin
of hers, farmer in Iowa, who had long loved
her, telling him that she had broken her en-
gagement, relating the circumstances to him,
and ending with saying that she was all
ready to be married, and if he would come
and be there at the time set for her wedding.
she would marry him. He complied. Her
betruthed in New York, astonished to re-
ceive her letter, closed up his business as
best he could, and came to Taxewell county
by the next train. He reached the little vii.
lage where she lived, and was Fastening up
to the house to fulfill bis engagement, when
he was met by some of mis- friends and told
that his bride has just been married to anoth-
er man. He tainted away on the spot and
was taken up to the hotel. When the bride
was told of it, she was overwhelmed with
remorse. but il was then too late. She was
legally married to her cousin. The New

without seeing her, and she passed through
this city yesterday, on her way to an Iowa
farm. looking very detected and anything but

rFIGnT WITH INDIANs.-We are informed
that Steve Flemming and his twelve Indian
fighters, who went in pursuit Of the band of
Indians who murdered Burk, lately, on Hay
Fork, Trinity county, overlook the Indians a
few days ago IN the mountains between Trim
ity river and Humboldt county, and had a
lively fight with them. Six Indians were
found dead on the ground, and two more
were supposed to be mortally wounded. Sew
eral Indians were taken prisoners, and a
few Of the band escaped. One white man,
named Drinkwater, from Hay Fork, was shot
and seriously wounded by wounded Indian
living concealed in the brush near where the
fehs took place The Indians were gener
ally armed with rifles, and had plenty of am
munition. A small company of trained men,
led by such a man as Steve Flemming, would
do more towards cleaning out hostile red
-skins than regiment of regulars. ~

GENERAL OF THE ARMIES. The Washing
ton correspondent of the New York Tribune
makes the following explanation of the law
concerning the Office Of General of the Armies
of the United States:
The newspapers, in discussing the expected
resignation of General Grant as General of
the Armies of the United States, are in error.
They say the Office will expire with the ac-
eeptance Of the Generals resignation, and
that the highest rank in the army will then
be that of Lieutenant General, in which grade
General Sherman has no peer and that it
will be within the discretion Of Congress to
determine whether he shalt be promoted to
the still higher grade. To do this, say the
correspondents, will require special law, as
in the case of General Grant. This is erro-
neous in many particulars. The law making
General Grant General of the Armies revived
the old law providing for the grade of Gen.
eral of the Army, and left it to the discretion
of the President Of the United States to ap-
point or not to appoint an officer to that posi-
ton. The resignation Of General Grant
would merely make vacancy, which would
be filled by another appointment. if the Ex-
ecutive should deem it necessary or proper
that the grade should be continued The
law does not contemplate succession as
matter of course.

The collections of revenue from whisky in
this district for the month of October last. at
the rate of fifty cents per gallon, were $780,
OOO-being greater than during any single
