incident of the same service dn-

telegraphed from the clouds, to
President Lincoln, that he had a
view nearly fifty miles in diameter.

The Tribune's Washington spe-
cial says. Diplomatic circles are
excited just now by the curious
rumor relating to the move of the
Prussian Government to secure a
foothoid in the West Indies. 1t is
stated that Prussian agent visit
ed President BaeZ in San Domingo
some months ago and informally
offered TO take the reversion of our
annexation scheme, purchase the
territory of San Domingo and
transfer it to German control.
Such rumor reached here from
Havana at the time but was gen
orally discredited, now, however,
it is reported Bismarck has made
through Bancroft definite propo
sition to this Government that
Prussia shall be allowed to negoti-
ate for coaiing and naval st ton,
either in San Domingo or some
other of the West Indian Islands
without opposition from the Uni
ted States. This Government to
receive the support of North Ger
many in obtaining coaling sta
ton in the Mediterranean. The
foregoing statement Is given as
rumor, but it is positively declared
that its truth will be established.
Another phase of the report is that
the Germans intend to attack the
French West Indian Colonies if
she found our Government at all
inclined to listen to their acquiring
such territory by transfer or con-
quest.

The Bible Question in England.

England is now experiencing a
sensation somewhat similar to that
of Cincinnati over the Bible in the
public school question. The
educational elections are the cause.
Among the nominees for the school

Dixon. The following is the ad-
dress of the latter gentleman as
printed in the London papers:

FREE TEADE.--The Free Traders
are profound philosophers and
shrewd managers. One hundred
boxes of wine properly distributed
in the stomachs of an invited au-
dience, to say nothing of the free
trade in brandy and hot punches,
is considered, as an investn ent
by the Free Trade treas ury, valu-
BILE. A hot punch, a brandy smash
and bottle of wine is a good pre-
paration for the seed of free trader.
This has been found in New York
to be the best and cheapest meth
cd to concentrate and drive home
to the commercial and business
men the great truths they advocate.

In commenting upon this, the
Ntw York Herald sums up the
matter thus:
In order to have free trade,
therefore, while meeting the inter-

Of the principal instead Of redu-
cling our direct taxes we must have
them increased to the extent of one
hundred and thirty millions a year
which will simply be robbing Pc

cut to free trade, in fact, is the
short cut Of repudiation, but as
this settlement Of the national debt
was not suggested at this Free
Trade dinner, and as it is not him
ted at by tie League, we shall
have plenty oftime say twenty five
or thirty years for this free trade
discussion and for the abolition of
all our custom houses. The best
that we can do meantime is to
tighten as far as possible. looking

late war all our national revenues,

TERRIBLE DEATH.
A Citizen Of Alexandria COunty
Dies Of Hydrophobia.

| - AAy~AORAsO~A"s :
From the Washington Chronicle.
Last August, during the warm
est days Of summer, Mr.. England.
keeperH Of the tollgateon the Leea
burg pike, near Alexandria, Viz
ginia, was bitten by a small pes
dog. At the time no evidence %
madness was visible on the par
Of the dog, and the simplest rene
dies were applied to the hand
which had been bitten, and the
wound, to all intents, apparently
healed. Subsequently other mem-
bers of the families were bitten by
the dog, although no alarm was
occasioned, as the animal was
small and thought capable of doing
no harm. ass
Somo two weeks passed, when
unmistakable symptoms OF mad
ness having developed themselves,
the dog was reluctantly killed.
Two months passed by, when the
incident had almost ceased to be
remembered, until within q short
period, when Mr.. England com.
planned Of q choking sensation, and
was treated for asthma. This
treatment was pursued until within
few days siLce, when it became
apparent to the attending ply
sician that the premonitory symp-
toms of hydrophobia had devel-
oped themselves and he was trea-
ted accordingly. On Sunday last
he reached the rabid stage. and his
sufferings, up to the time of his
death, which relieved him from
his pains on Monday night at
6 o'clock, were terrible.
HIS CONDITION.
On last Saturday the worst
forms Of the terrible disease had
disappeared. He would call for
water, and when it was presented
to him, would turn from if with a
shrek, barking and swapping like
dog, and foaming at the mouth.
This would continue some twenty
minutes, and it required the COM
bined strength of five men to hold
him. He would then become calm
and lucid, and converse with those
near him, telling them that he had
full knowledge ofhis condition and
praying for death to relieve him
Of his intense sufferings. Upon
feeling the return of the spasms he
would notify all those in the room
to leave, and soon became more
like mad beast than a human
being. All through Sunday he
had those spasms at intervals,
continuing until Monday at 3
o'clock when his state became such
that pen cannot depict the physical
agony he endured. At that hour
he was raving, which continued up
to the time of his death, 6 p. ID.
His shrieks and cries could be
heard afar off; he would bark,
grind his teeth, growl, and show
other characteristics Of the canine
species. The sight ofwater would
intensity his sufferings and cause
drops of cold sweat to profusely
appear On his face. At 5 o'clock
he became more mild, and died
soon thereafter from exhaustion.
The attending physicians think
it probable that the other members
of the family have not been ino-
culated, as all were bitten through
the clothing, and it is tho't that the
dogs teeth in passing through the
same removed the poison and pre-
vented them from contracting the
frightful disease.

Hollands German Tonic

Was compounded for those not inclined to
extreme bitters, and is intended for use in
cases when some alcoholic stimulant is re-
quired in connection with the Tonic proper
ties of the Bitters. Each bottle of the Tonic
contains one bottle of the Bitters, combined
with pure SANTA CRUZ RUN. and favored in
such a manner that the extreme bitterness of
the Bitters is overcome, forming a prepara-
tion highly agreeable and pleasant to the pal
ate, and containing the medicinal virtues of
the Btters. The price of the Tonic is $1.5O
high. They must take into consideration that
the stimulant used is guaranteed to be of
pure quality. A poor article could be fur
nished at a cheaper price, but is it not better
to pay little more and have good article
A medicinal preparation should contain none
but the best ingredients, and they who ex-
pect to obtain cheap compound will most
certainly be cheated.
