MAMMOTH WHISKY ERAnn I

\ MAMMOTH WHISKY FRAUD TN
EARTHED. A Cincinnati dispatch says
considerable excitement was caused
among the whisky-ring, to-day, over the
arrest OF David Gibson, very wealthy
and enterprlslng merchant, steamboat
owner and whisky operator. charged with
fraud upon the government on over
1000 barrels Of whisky, in one of the
Mobile cases, lately turned up. Infor-
nation against - parties in Mobile. Ala
tor violation of the revenue law, and for
defrauding the government out of nearly
SO, 900, 600 of tax, having been received
by Secretary Boutwell,, Special Agent d.
Mills was sent to Mobile to investigate.
Mr.. Mills has been vigorously at work,
and has, thus far procured indictments
against seven Of the parties. Some Of
false manifest in the case Of the schooner
dan d. Of only 40 tons burden. She
purpOrted to have cleared with 966
barrels of whisky, 900 boxes of tobacco.
and an assorted cargo, enough to have
sunk vessel three times as large. She
was destined for Sampero, Mexico. The
certificate of the American consul at
Sampero. upon which the bonds for
whisky and tobacco, were cancelled, is a
forgery. Gilmore was collector of the
port, and I. ". Kellogg, now a member
of Congress, was collector of internal
revenue. This case is considered sure
for the government, and amounts to over
5000, 900. Another case is that of |, S97
bales of cotton, and another involving
steamer with 1890 barrels OF whisky.
David Gibson is alleged to have been
heavily interested with these mer. The
arrest was made on the affidavit of one

INDIA MooNsHINE. Mr.. Coffin, in
his recent book, Our New Way Round
the World" thus writes of its effect on
man within the tropics He is in India
The moon is at its full, pouring its rays
upon the zenith straight down upon US,
with power that is almost as unbearable
as that Of the midday sun. There is no
heat in its rays, but they have great eff
feet upon the brain. The blood rushes
to the head, and there is a sense of full
ness and pressure which, although not
attended with pain, is exceedingly I'M
pleasant We find it necessary to keep
our umbrellas spread at midnight, as
we'll as at midday. 1t is dangerous to
sleep in the moonlight in the tropics. In
this country we can sec new beauty In
the words of the Psalmist, expressive of
God s care for those who love him: The
sun shall not smlte thee by day, nor the
moon by night.

Colo WAFER One of the best of

which causes many deaths. when drank
without discretion. Not a season passes
die by drinking this pure and heaven
prepared beverage. to excess, when over
heated. Strange men will do this, when
a small quantity will much better quench
their thirst, and do them good, instead
of harm. Let any one, no matter how
thirsty, drink only swallow, gargle his

he will find his heat allayed, and thirst
ouenched, much more thoroughly, than

Remember this while hot weather lasts.

the renowned London physician, DR..
Richard Fare The ordinary exertions

ton Of day and night, that repose may

it does not sufficiently restore its balance,

THE Z. S. NAyY.-A plan has recent
y been proposed by Admiral Porter, I'M
der which the services of large number
Of naval engineers will be dispensed with
The plan is to employ on each vessel, at
a salary of forty five dollars a month, sev-
eral machinists who shall live forward ard
do the duty of first and second engineers
with regular engineer in charge Of the
machinery, who will be the responsible
officer. This arrangement is at first to
be tried on third and fourth class vessels,
and, if satisfactory, it will then be ex
tended to the larger vessels Of the navy.
The engineers Of the navy, however, are
not pleased with the proposed arrange
nent. They have already been reduced
one degree in rank in the service, and
this plan, if adopted, will probably place
them still lower on the list, as compared
with line officers. 1t is reported, on the
other hand, that leading members OF both
houses Of Congress will at the next SEES
SION favor the passage Of law restoring
the engineers to their former position ard
preventing any further reduction in rank

DEATH FROM USING HAIR DYE

DEATH FROM USING HAIR DYE.-Dr.
j. Witherwax, an old and esteemed citi-
zen Of Davenport, Iowa, a prominent
man in his profession, died some time
last June after a painful illness. 1t was
announced at the time that his disease
was chronic diarrhma, but it appears
from the report Of Committee appoint
ed by the Medical Association Of that
city, to look into the matter and ascer-
tain the true cause, that death was caus-
cd by the use Of hair dye. 1t appears
that fer some time previous to his death
the Doctor had been using a compound
upon his hair and whiskcrs that contained
solution of lead. \ post mortem OK
animation reveals the fact that the lead
had entered the system through the roots
of the hair in poisonous quantities, and
its presence was detected in the vital or
gans. The nature Of the dye is given,
but it is asserted that lead is used in all
hair dyes.

The Oshkosh Noythuestern still con-
tinues its TRADE upon State Treasurer
Smith. The replies of those newspapers
who have attempted to come to Mr..
Smith rescue, have seemed to us to be
weak and pointless. If there is any truth
IN the charges of the Northeastern, the
exposure Of the facts, however distaste-
ful they may be TO politicians, is pub
lie duty. If they are untrue, it is very
easy to show their falsity. Finney's
personal animosities have nothing to do
with the merits Of the matter. The
affair has become too notorious to be
ignored or passed over in silence. Much
as we may deprecate any action from
motives of personal hatred, the fact that
somebody's got mad and 7oeoched' does
not mitigate the necessity or render any
less the duty of independent Journals TO
candidly and fearlessly investigate. She
