HYDRoPHoB1A. Seeing there arc 50 many
cases of hydrophobia prevailing, send copy
OF recipe have for tho cure, or rather pre-
vention.ot that terrible malady, for publication
in the Gazette, as happily it may be the means
Of saving the life of some of our fellow beings.
Very respectfully, DAVID WALTON.
ACCoTINK, II NO., 1st 1870.
CURE FOR HYDRoPHoBIA. M edical science
seems vainly to have exhausted its skill in
search of cure for the bite Of mad dog.
The follow ing is Mrs. Goodman's celebrated
remedy which has been unfailing in every case
where taken before the occurrence of spasms.
1t consists of three doses OF elecampane root
taken in the following manner, viz: For the
first dose take one and hall ources Of either
the dried or green root; if green, crate as you
would horseradisb if the dry root, reduce it
quite fine, mix it in pint of milk fresh from
the COW and boil it down to hall pint. Take
this early in the morning upon an empty stom.
ach and eat nothing until after o'clock in the
afternoon. Forty eight hours after this take
two ounces OF the root prepared in the Same
way, boiling it down to half pint as before,
and take 1t IN the same manner. Again 10
forty eight hours take another dose of same
quantity as the last. This makes in all FIVE and
half ounces OF the root and three pints Of
milk; the directions are to be closely observed
using milk &resh from the COW, boiling each
dose down to half pint, taking the whole dose
at once, and upon an empty stomach, fasting
until four o clock, taking the dose every other
day. The green root is preferable. 1t is an
exceedingly nauseous dose to prepare or take
but is certain cure, if taken in time, for either
hydrophobia or snake bite. The gentleman
who gave US the recipe paid twenty FIVE dol
lars for it and was cured by it. Since then he
has prescribed it wit b certain effect in num-
Der OF cases, In one case TWO men were bitten
by the same dog, one took the remedy and is
living to day, the other refused to take it and
died in most terrible agony.-From Once 4

Meeting of Methodist Preachers.
New YORK, March 15.-Iu the New
York Methodist preachers meeting yes
to-day, the Rev. DR.. Andrews present
ed resolutions endorsing the report of
the majority of the Book committee in
their recent Investigations. These res
olutions called forth considerable dis
cusaion, in which Rev. Drs. Ridgeway,
Foster, Curry, Tiffany, Crawford and
Messrs. Hermane, Taylor, King and 9th
ers participated. The general express
sion was that the allegation of fraud
had not been, and could not be, sus-
tanned, and that verdict of 10 to 3 was
sufficiently strong itself to demand the
approval and publication of minority
report. DR.. Shier's paper in the Baltl,
more American were deprecated and
declared to have been illegitimately &C
uuired and made known. The commit
tee had their minority report to be sent
t. the General Conference, together
with that of the majority. The action of
the Baltimore Conference in censuring
the majority and Withholding its
Sunday School Union funds was
also commented upon as unjust
and harsh. There being no proof either
before the Conference or before the
community to sustain the allegations of
fraud and after careful investigation
the Book committee had failed to find
proof. Their action is final and can
only be reversed by the General Confer.
ence.
Mr.. Hermann moved to lay the resolu-
ton on the table which was lost.
