CUNDURANGo.-Dr Bliss, of Washington city,
insists that cundurango, as a cure for cancer is
not a humbug. but an agent of great power |;
and the Chicago Tribune backed him up on the
4th inst, by an editorial, in which it was stated
that citizen of high standing Of Chicago took
his wife to DIR. Bliss, at Washington, to be treat.
ed for cancer. The case was most serious. He
tried cundurango and awaited the results and
In two weeks the cancer exhibited alarming
signs, threatening with death from bleeding. An
operation with the knife was resolved upon, and
this soon explained the condition the cancer had
assumed. Its immense growth had become en-.
tirely separated from the flesh, but had prevent
ed the latter from healing. As soon ss the can.
Ger was removed the flesh beneath was found
free from disease and the lady rapidly recovered
and is now at her house in that city, free from
every sign or symptom of cancer.

Freight House Burned-FIreman
Injured.

Freight House Burned-Flreman
Injured.
LOUISVILLE, September l0.-At about
half past 3 o'clock P N. fire broke
out in the transfer freight house for
northern bound freight, at the Ohio
river bridge depot. 1t spread with great
rapidity, and a strong breeze carried
the flames to the railroad buildings be-
tween Portland avenue and High street,
consuming them and twelve freight cars,
one hundred barrels Of -four, twenty-five
bales OF cotton, one hogshead Of tobacco,
one carload OF lumber and shingles.
One carload Of ice was partially de-
stroyed. The buildings were Of but
little value, the greatest loss being the
inconvenience. The insurance could not
be ascertained. The fire originated in
sparks from a passing train dropping
under the platform, and although efforts
were promptly made to extiDguish it,
the entire structure was in flames 10 a
few minutes.
VIM. White, member Of Hook and
Ladder Company No. 2, in attempting
to stop a hose reel going to the fire,
fell between the wheels and was
dragged some distance and severely in
jured, although it is thought tonight
not fatally.
There will be but little delay to trains,
as the track is only slightly injured.

Failure Of Cotton Crops In Georgia
and Alabama.

WASHINGTON, September 9.-Georgia
and Alabama papers received here this
morning contain deplorable accounts
of the cotton crops in these States.
The Atlanta (Ga. Ne'cs says: We are
in possession of reliable data from the
southern and southeastern portions OF
Georgia relative to the condition OF the
cotton crop and it is our painful duty
to report it a disastrous failure. The
best sections ofthis portion of the State
cannot possibly reach twothirds OF the
average crop, while the poorer sections
will scarcly exceed one-third OF the
average. 1t is plain that half crop
will not be realized. The Selma (Ala.)
Times says: We have never known
a year so disastrous. We saw, on
Monday last, plantations, which had
always yielded well, upon which the
small balls on the stocks were literally
dried up, while the plant is throwing
off everything it ought to make. Such
is the condition Of the crops generally
in this section.
Treasury Balances.
The following are the Treasury bal

The Law 10 be Enforced.
WASHINGTON, September l0.-The
Superintendent of the Police last even
ing served notices to all the houses Of
ill-fame that they must close business
on or before Tuesday next or they will
be proceeded against to the full extent
OF the law.
Dreadful Tragedy I'm Georgia.
Information has just been received
here OF dreadful tragedy in Wilkinson
county, Georgia. About midnight Wed:
nesday night party of unknown men
gagged and killed Matthew Dearor
Sheriff of Wilkinson county, and a
negro woman in his employ, and threw
the bodies into a mill pond near by.
The bodies were recovered Friday morn
ing. The sheriff had gun shot wound
in his head and the remains Of the
woman gave evidence OF having been
badly mutilated with a knife. No ar
rests have yet been made so far.

THE SARATOGA REGATTA
Six Thousand Persons Present.
THE RACE Is a FIzzLE.

SARATOGA, September 9.-The num-
Der of arrivals here to witness the great
four-oared race this morning is rapidly
swelling, and the interest in the various
crews still continue to increase. The
following pools sold at the Grand
Union Hotel this morning: Taylor
Winship crew 260, Ward crew 80, Tyne
crew 10, and the field selling for 81.
Everything appears favorable for the
race so far, including the weather, and
the contest promises to be one Of the
finest ever witnessed.
Owing to the roughness ofthe weather
the great four-oared boat race did not
take place this morning. No announce
ment was made in Saratoga that there
was any probability of postponement,
and people Aocked to the lake in i'm
mense crowds.
There were fully six thousand per-
sons on the shores of the lake, waiting
for the contestants to make their ap-
pearance, and general disappoint-
ment was caused when, shortly after,
the announcement was made that the
water was too rough, and the four-oared
race would not take place until Mon
dav. The race for single sculls will
also take place on that day. The
former will be rowed on Monday in
the morning, and the latter in the after
noon. When it became positively
known that the race would not take
place to-day, an effort was made by
some parties to match the Dutchesse
crew, of Poughkeepsie, against either
of the crews entered for the race, to go
at once for $500 side. This offer was
Immediately accepted by the Taylor
Winship crew, but aftera delay of over
an hour the Poughkeepsie men backed
down and would not row. This re-
fusal on the part Of the Poughkeepsie
crew, disgusted everybody, and the vast
crowds in the vicinity Of Lake Sar-
atoga dispersed greatly, disappointed at
the hetermination ofthe day 'ssport. All the
hotels are crowded with people from all
parts of the country. The excitement
over the race is intense, and large sums
of money is wagered on the result

Senator Sherman's Speech at WI l.
minStOn.

minGtOn.
CINCINNATI, September 9.-Senator
Sherman in a speech at Wilmington,
Yesterday afternoon, took up and an
swered Mr.. Pendleton's conundrum, as
he called it, on the disposition made OF
the taxes collected in the six years since
the war. He thought a candid seeker
after such knowledge could have OBJ
tanned satisfactory information from the
reports of the last two Secretaries Oh
the Treasury. These reports show that
the debt hat five years ago stood at
s2,27SO, 100000, now stands at $2,2'2,-
600 900, thus accounting at one stroke
for $5OS, 100000 of the taxes collected
Then, $l2,OOO,OO0 has been used to
settle the unaudited debt existing at the
close of the war, which these Demo
cratic financiers had told us would re-
ouire 100000 to::settle. Besides.these
items we have paid pensions to our
brave wounded and disabled soldiers,
and to their widows and orphans, and
have paid interest on the national debt
leaving % but s72O,O ,OOO,O 900. with which we
have paid six years expenses drumming
the Government, and With this amount
even in deprecated paper money we
have run the Government at less cost
than did the Democratic party during
the fatal and treacherous administrator
ofJames Buchanan.

CINCINNATI.
Boiler rExplosion-Eugtne kflled-
CorOner's Inquest.

CINCINNATI, September lO.-The
boiler used in the construction Of the
back water now being built above the
water works, exploded with greatvioleuce
this morning, instantly killing the en-
gineer, Mullott, and slightly injuring
the Superintendent Of Construction.
The following are the particulars: The
boiler was an old one, being purchased
second hand, but was thought to be safe.
The Superintendent saw steam escaping
from the gauge cock, and asked the en-
gineer how much steam he had on.
He was told l25 pounds. The Superin-
tendent then told him to open the fire
door and turned away. He had gone
only short distance when the explosion
occurred. The conclusion lifted him
bodily up and carried him from ten to
fifteen feet, inflicting nothing worse than
a few bruises. The boiler separated
about the centre, halt OF which was
thrown up the river bank a distance OF
200 feet. The engineer was struck on
the head, which was partially torn of,
AID was otherwise mutilated.
At the inquest held this afternoon
John G. Richardson, chief engineer OF
the pumping department, testified that
no one was present at the time OF theex-
plosion, except himself and Mullott saw
the steam escaping from the guage-cock;
asked "how much steam, and was told
l2l pounds; was told to open fire door,
which he did; a minute after the ex-
plosion followed; think the boiler was
safe at 100 pounds; was defective in
crown sheet some time since but was
repaired two weeks ago; pumping could
be done with 80 pounds which was the
amount ordered TO be used think Null
lott was wholly to blame for the explo-
sion.
William S. Gooteday, Esq, testified
thatthe boiler was detective until
about two weeks ago, when four or five
crown bolts were put in; the crown
sheet was depressed little and was not
reduced to its original shape; the boiler
had been pronounced unsafe by practl-
cal men before repairing; thought it was
safe with a reasonable amount OF steam;
thought Richardson was too careless in
running the department; he had often
spoke of getting a new boiler, even
since the repair had been made.
Adjourned until tomorrow.
Richardson will be very severely COM
mented on by the morning papers. The
explosion occurred at 6:3O A. NJ, and
Mullott would have been relieved by
the day engineer at 200.
Visit Of Citizens OF Philadelphia.
CINCINNATI, September "a delega-
ton Of the Philadelphia Council and
Aldermen arrived here last night, the
guests of the city. They visited the ex-
position this forenoon, took drive
around the city in carriages, and left
for st. Louis at 3 o'clock.
An Intoxicated Man Killed.
Joseph Long started from Bainbridge,
Ross county, Ohio, to llillsboro on FRI
day, with load of shingles, and was
found dead by the roadside yesterday
morning, his head in a crevice in the
rocks, with the shingles over it. 1t is
supposed that, while intoxicated, he
drove too near a rayine, upsetting the
wagon.
