Weather PrOphets.-It is quite amusing
to read the different prophecies regarding
the coming winter. Some say the winter
will be remarkably cold, and give as II
reason for this belief the fact that the au-
rora borealis has been remarkably brilliant
this fall while others, with equal positive
ness, say we shall have warm one, as the
corn husks were thinner than usual We
believe we know as much about the
weather this coming winter, as any of these
prophets, and honestly confess we know
nothing about it,

Card from James Armstrong.

TTNHE undersigned would hereby respectfully
l. beg leave to return his sincere thanks to the
Democratic and Conservative voters of New Cas-
tie county for their partiality in selecting him as
their candidate for the Sherffalty from among so
many other gentlemen, whose names were pre-
sehted to them on Saturday last any one of
whom would have done honor alike to the office
and the great party 10 which they so long and
faithfully adhered.
1t would afford him great pleasure to visit his
friends in every Hundred in the county and TO
tender to each, personally, his thanks for the
honor conferred upon him but, as circumstan-
ces, which are best understood by those who are
most intimately acquainted with him, render this
impracticable, he adopts this as the only availa-
BILE mode of expressing his gratitude to his fel-
low-cidzens for their past support and of solicit
ing continuation of the same at the ensuing
general election, pledging himself, that, should
he be SO fortunate as 10 be elected to the said Of
flee, he will discharge its duties with honesty, fl
deity, and to the best of his humble ability.

THE HERALD.

SCARLET FEvER.-A writer in Good
Health gives some valuable hints for
the treatment of this fearful disease.
He says:
"Undress the child and bring it "a
bed at the very first signs Of sickness
If it has fever, give il nothing but
sourish lemonade, with some gum ara
bic Dissolved in il. Then cover its alb.
domen with dry flannel. Take a vel
folded sheet and dip it in hot water
wiring it dry, and put this over the
flannel on the child's abdomen. Then
cover the whole and wait. Accord
ing TO the severity Of the case, and
its stage Of progress, Precipitation Will
commence in the child in from ten
minutes to two hours. The child is
then saved, and its recovery will be
as steady as tho growth Of groen-
house plant. As the inclination TOR
food returns, hold the bowels by in
iections OF warm water, oil and lit
tie CASTLE soap. These direction are
for the early symptoms, ofthe disease.
If the child has illusions Of the heart
or brain, these will not save it, but if
these remedies are applied in due
time not one in q hundred children
will die OF scarlet fever
"Theso directions arc so simple
that every one can follow them, and
we could add TO these the application
of coat of hogs lard over the whole
body. We know this to be excellent
from practical experience, and believe
that if these remedies are applied in
due season the deaths from scarlet
fever would be few"
