one name can have sufficient curative powers
to cure 30 many different diseases, and often
the very best Of remedies are discarded or
branded as hunbufs because they are recon-

pouenclature of diseases would seem to imply
some essential difference between the diseases
thus distinguished, whereas, they are really
one and the same disease, merely differing by
the amount Of Inflammation or imitation in

ACCIDENT ON THE NORTHERN CENTRAL
RAILwAY-A NUMBER KILLED AND
WoUNDED.-Twelve miles from Harrisburg,
on the Northern Central railroad, leading
from Baltimore, on Monday night, the en-
CINE Lady Washington was standing on the
track and the engineman was looking at his
watch, when the northward train ran
around the curve. To avoid collision then
was impossible, and the engineman and
fireman both jumped from the train. The
fireman of the Lady Washington was in
stantly killed, and that engine was crushed.
At the moment Of the collision the boiler
exploded, and only fragments of iron and
brass could be afterwards found, though
with them the ice in the river was literally
strewed. The smoke-stack was thrown to q
distance of one hundred yards into the
river, and the tender, q crushed and shape
less mass, was thrown down the bank and
into the river. The train northWard con-
sisted of the locomotive and tender, three
express cars, and several passenger cars. The
cars, which were laden with oysters for
the West, were destroyed one passenger
car was broken to pieces and several others
crushed and run into each other. How
many were killed and wounded could not
be definitely ascertained last night, but the
number was said to be thirty-fye. The
scene is said to have been appalling, and
for some time there was but little assist
ance, as the point where the catastrophe
occurred is only water station, and there
are very. few habitations around. The
damage to the company will probably be
between twenty thousand and thirty thou
sand dollars.-Baltimore Gazette, 18th.

. A GRASS WIDOW IN TRoUBLE.-A young
woman, accompanied by man named
John Howard, reached this city few days
ago from Charlotte, N. c., and stopped at q
well-known private clearinghouse in q
fashionable locality. They represented
themselves as man and wife, and so regis
tered as Mr.. and Mrs. -. After day
had elapsed the so-called husband disap-
peared. The pretended wife became very
much alarmed, and said that she presumed
he had. been foully dealt with, as he had q
large sum of money in his possession. The
sequel proved, however, that he had dealt
foully with her, having cheated her out of
her money as well as her virtue. She was
the wife of another, whom he had decoyed
from home on the pretence of marrying heraf-
ter she could be divorced. On the train hither
he managed to swindle her out of two hum
dred and forty-eight dollars-all she had
and then deserted her as above described.
She applied to the detective Office for re-
dress, and described Howard so accurately
as to lead to his arrest. She has been sent
home to arrange her little difficulty with
her liege lord as best she may.-Charleston
