PRECAUTIONS AGAINST THE SHALL.

Inasmueh - the SMALL ox threaten
to become an epidemic bereabout, il il
the part Of wisdom to guard against i
~ far - possible ; and to that end VI
can do NO bst.er than to consult thu
best authorities with regard the better
and moro simple and effec,ual means Of
doing so. That excellent periodical, The
Pacific Medical and Surgical Journal
gives the following good advice upon
the subject
Physicians exposed to the disease should
| adopt some means for their own protection.
and also to avoid carrying the infection in
their clothing, the following rules. wrich are
applicable to others as we'll as physicians,
should Be observed: l. Avoid exposure
when the stomach is empty, or the strength
exhausted. 2. Do not enter room in per-
spiration and remain there till cold. 3.
Avoid uncomfortable exposure to cold on
leaving the room. 4. Do not swallow the
Iva in the room or immediately after leaving
it. 1t is possible that the germs Of the dis
ease enter the blood partly through the
stomach. 5. After leaving patient with
smallpox, avoid entering another dwelling
without free ventilation in the open air-say
for quarter of an hour. 6. Do not, under
any circumstances, practice midwifery or
visit families where there are children or
others unvaccinated whilst in attendance on
small pox patients. No other precautions
than these have been adopted in general BY
physicians in San Francisco. Indeed. i,
may be safely SAID that few have adopted all
Of these measures. Yet we have not heard
Of one who has contracted the disease, nor
of a single case of the epidemic occurring in
the family Of a medical man.
Now while this is first rate advice to
the medical profession and such advice
as we have good reason 10 believe will
be rigidly observed, people who are not
necessarily brought in contact with the
disease, but who may be subjected to
ITS contagious influences from any
cause, may, with much reason take
upon themselves such guards as a gen
eral due observance of the rules condu-
Give to good health requires at all times.
These rules require cleanliness, tenn
perance. avoidance of unusual exposure
and where a possibility of contact has
been occasioned, free use of disinfec- |
tnnts. Above all however. cleanliness
should be observed. Persons and |
classes who are habitunlly negligent of
The requirements of neatn-ss are always
more susceptible to smallpox, cholera,
identical diseases than others We
may do much to insure ourselves
against this terrible disease if we will
but take the best care OF ourselves that

The Republican State Convention, of

mated Lucius Fairchield, for Governor L.
O. Pond, Lieut. Governor, E. A. Spencer,
Secy. of State; Henry Barth, Treasurer.
Proceedings we're harmonious and pleasant.
A Clergyman named Richardson, who
had been officiating as rector of the East
Cleveland Congregational Church, for the
past nine years, was discharged promptly,
a short time since, by the officers of the
Church, upon his own written evidence Of
an attempt to mislead a young lady who
had been a member of the congregation
1t appears that some years since the father
Of the girl noticed a growing intimacy on
the part Of the clergyman and demonstrated
with him. The remonstrance seemed to
have effect; but the girl subsequently Joined
the church, when he renewed his advances.
To place his daughter out of the influence Of
man he believed to be inclined to evil, the
father removed to an adjoining county, but
thither the wretch followed her by letter
steadily endeavOring to work her ruin.
Several of his letters being intercepted, the
father proceeded to Cleveland and laid them
before the church officers, and the result was
the instant dismissal of the clergy lyman, who
has since departed for the West.

The Democracy never weary of de-
nouncing the present administration and
its able Secretaries. They are hard to
please especially in regard to the public
debt. They declare it can never be
paid, Notwithstanding it is being re-
duced at the rate of a quarter OF a mil
lion per day. And when Secretary
Boutwell, sells gold at 1888 per cent he
is declared usurer and a speculator,
and when he buys bonds, at 1.20 they
declare he is running the people and
the government although he is actually
saving to the government lS per cent
by the transaction, and forcing the
credit of the government up to higher
point than it has attained since the first
year of the war. He is still pursuing
the good work however, and has in
structed his assistant to continue the
sale of gold and the purchase of bonds
through September the same as in
August. No; they do not like the
progress he is making towards the ex-
tinction of the public debt. They
rather liked and still like the last Dem
ocratic Secretary of the Treasury
Howell Cobb, better, and no doubt are
equally in love with the cause for which
he plundered the treasury.
