CURES FOR HYDROPHoBIA--W
cut from our exchanges the following
remedies for hydrophobia, which
may be worth bearing in mind at the
present time:-
One remedy is rs follows: Horse
radish grated and mixed with little
vinegar and sweet oil to form a paste
Eat of this all that can be swallowed
and kept on the stomach. Repeat
the eating and renew the poultice as
often as necessary, to keep up the
stimulating effect of the horse radish,
until the spasms are relieved and the
patient cured.
Another is: Take Immediately
warm vinegar or tepid water, wash
the wound herewith, and then dry
1t; then pour upon the wound a few
drops of hydrochloric acid, because of
the saliva, by which means the latter
is neutralized.
Another receipt is: Mix one pound
OF common salt in quart of water,
then bathe with and squeeze the
wound with the same one hour, then
bind little more salt on the wound
for twelve hours. The author of this
receipt twas bitten six times by mad
dogs, and always cured hiMself with
the above mixture, and offers to suffer
himself to be bitten by any mad dog
in order to convince mankind that
what he offered was a real truth, to
which numbers could testify"

CLARKsvILLE, TENN, July @, 1868.
MEssRs. EDITORS: On Saturday, the 4th
inst, was permitted to join with the
Presbyterian Sunday School in their Ami
versary Picnic, which took place on Grice's
creek, twenty miles below Clarksville, on
the NJ, c. & l.. r. Il.
At 8 o'clock A. NJ. the procession of schol-
ars and teachers was formed at the Presby-
terrain Church, from which place they
moved, at 81 o'clock, to the depot, where
chartered train was in readiness to take
them to the selected spot.
Arriving Mt Cumberland City ut 9IS O'Clock
through the kindness of Col. Geo. Stacker
we were guided to cool and romantic
spot, close by the side of gurgllng spring,
where we put up swings, and gave way to
pleasure amidst children's games and
songs.
AT II o'clock our talented young towns
man, Mr.. c. u. McElroy, was introduced TO
the audience by the pastor, the Rev. o. d.
Davies, as orator of the day. For half an
hour he addressed the listening throng in
an oration which for style, diction and
beauty of thought we have never heard ex-
celled on an occasion of the kind. SO much
pleased Were the officers, teachers and
members of the school with the address.
that resolutions were unanimously passed
requesting copy for publication, with q
further request that the Chronicle publish
the same.
About o'clock dinner was announced
and such dinner! 1t was fully worthy of
such appetites. Everything to "cheer the
inner man" was set forth before the little
on l,fN R,r.t haI,
waiting until they were fully served. After
dinner the swings and games were again re-
sorted to, until o'clock, when we all with.
drew from the scene of so much pleasures
feeling that it was day long to be reynem-
bered in years to come 10y many O young
warm heart. May their lives be ever as
full of pleasure and JOY as op that day.
We arrived at home at O'Clock, safe in
body and limb, thanking, from the depths
of our hearts, our All-wise Maker, that un-
der the shadow of His protecting wing. not
one thing had occurred during the day TO
mar Its enjoyment.
such celebrations cannot but be benef-
cial, both to scholars and teachers, as well
as church members. They tend to arouse
the sleeping energies OF those who have
never known how much good cnn be ac-
complished among these little beings, II
Gods people would only labor with earnest
efforts to collect them together on the holy
sabbath for religious instructions.
Mr.. Robt. Meek, Superintendent of the
road, and his employees, in whose hands
so many little ones were placed, have the
thanks OF the entire school for their kind
attentions and the careful running of the
train.. "W.p

EINANCIALITEMs.--Th New York
Tribunei in its money article of the 1st
says:
Tho default of the State of Tennes-
see upon the interest due July /, has
caused great deal of conversation i'm
,Wall Street not 1T all complimentary
10 the honor 81 that State, which has
been sacrificed by her own citizens
ior dishonest personal gain. OF the
interest 500 900 was on deposit nt the
-Four tn National Bank, an equal sum
was in the hands of the agents of the
railroads ready to he tranterred TO tho
bank, and this institution had agreed
TO lend the State at par the amount
necessary to meet the July colpons
In full. In this state of affairs, when
the credit of Tennessee was in posi-
ton where its bonds were i'm demand
for investment, and the credit of all
borrowers and traders in the State
were steadily advancing with the
markets of New York, legal proceed
ings were taken, which mede H.
necessary for Governor Brownlow
and the Treasurer to advise the New
York agent of the State to withhold
the interest. This disaster to the
state credit, instead of being the sub
Ject OF regret to promote citizens of
the State temporarily hero, has been
the signal for the expression of their
qualification and of prediction of still
lower rates for the bonds. The parties
thus jubilant on the misfortlnes of
their State are largely Unidentified
with its railroads, and have probably
been interested in speculations against
the credit of the State. When the
Legislature IL meets, short work will be
made of this question. Tho bond
holders need have no fear of the re-
suit of the action of the Legislature,
and should not sell their bonds i'm a
panic, created wholly TO buy bonds
cheap. The Fourth National Bank
has in this affair shown n liberal pol-
icy toward Tennessee, and has done
all that could have been expected of
a financial agent.

pure, unadulterated, soul-searching,
sky-rending, rip-staving, forest-lift-
ing, Notwithstanding lying, 1t

"Major Wcisman, formerly Assistant, Ad-
Jutant General of the Second Division of
the Fourteenth Army Corps of the Army
of the Cumberland, called upon us TODAY.
He has been living at Hcrnando, Mississip D.
pl, ana iorsom time encting as United states
Commissioner. Finding himself In con-
stant peril OF his life from tile rebels, for the
exercise of the simplest rights Of n citizen,
he has concluded 10 leave for Gods coun-
Try. The Major Mt the opening of the war
was a strong Peace Democrat, but the rebels
have converted him into thorough Radi-

We happen TO know something Of
this "Majorn Weisman. Some
months since heheld n position I'M the
Freedmen's Bureau, at Hernandez
1t coming to light that he had swim
died the Government, file ofsoldiers
was sent from Vicksburg to arrest
and take him TO headquarters. The
scoundrelism was proved, but the con-
tents of Weisman's carpet-bag failed
to yield anything with which to force
restitution. After being kept in pris-
on awhile he was dishonorably dis
missed from the service, and ordered
to leave. He returned to Hernado,
and his ability to furnish evidence of
being thief increased his popularity
among the "trooly loiln OF that lati-
tude. His disqualiiications for ear
pet-bag membership of the Mississip-
pl Legislature being undoubted, he
become a candidate, and commenced
courting the negroes as vigorously as
he had swindled them before. A
short time prior to the election, he
started to Senatobia To speak, but,
learning that two men there had
threatened to "whale" him for swind-
ling them, he returned, announced
his withdrawal from the canvass,
and his determination to act in future
with the Democracy.
Last Monday night, about twelve
o'clock, he filled n wagon with every
thing of value he possessed that could
be crowded intoit, stealthily left Her
nando, arriving mt Horn Lake before
daylight. The molning train found
him at the depot, awaiting transporta-
tlon, ana the MAJOR" ana his "plun-
der" were brought to the city. Early
that morning the news spread
through Herpando that Weisinan,
whose promises to change the negroes
from Radicalism were so fresh in the
public mind, had absquatulated. A

had forgotten, In the hurry of depar-

here WAS 10 rush to one of the Radical
organs and open his budget of lies foF

THERE il more truth than poetry in
that story about an army Of women,
organized in Paraguay to help beat
back the Brazilians and THEN allies.
At last accounts they were drilling
daily, and already serving in fortifi-
cations, and i'm foraging parties and
working and preparing ammunition.
In every case, ii Is said, one woman
does well the work of n man. The
number of women thus doing duty in
the Paraguayan army amounts Ia
many thousands, and they yield the
lance ON horseback, throw the lasso,
or dig n ditch, rs well rs the maseu-
line gender.
