indeed, any spectacle really worth seeing seems

him in trust for building the road. He did
not build railroad in Washington, nor pur-
chase rolling stock, nor erect statues, nor con-
tribute it to the payment Of the national debt.
Now, when a railway manager expends
half million of dollars in Washington the
inference is that somebody was confidentially
brbed, and we cannot resist the conviction
that somebody was bribed to connive at the
violations of law which this railway plainly
committed. In other words, railroad which
had been endowed by Congress in msgnif-
cent manner used the money which the coun-
try gave 1t to enable it to bride Congressman
to consent to the directors putting large
part of the endowment in their pockets.
1t may be we are wrong in this conclusion,
but the facts as they are known can lead to no
other logical belief. We insist that these
facts call for searching inquiry, and the
foundation OF new and honest and states
manlke policy in this matter of subsidies and
railway legislation. The corruption surround
ing the whole subsidy business began with this
Pacific Railway adventure. We paid four
times as much as was needed to build the
first road, and we have not passed subsidy

times as much In lands and bonds as was

Sunstroke---Cause, Prevention and Cure.

The usual exciting cause of sunstrake
is exposure to the direct rays of the SUI,
generally in connection with great ex-
hauston of the bodily powers 1t some
times occurs without the direct agency
of the sun. The principal predisposing
cause is the use of alcoholic stimulants.
Enfeebled, poorly fed, over worked, and
irritable persons are also somewhat liable
to 1t. As special precautions during the
hot weather, the entire body, including
the head, should be bathed daily 10 cool
or cold water, great care should be taken
not 10 wear anything around the neck so
as to impede the circulation in the least,
and the covering Of the head should be
light and porous, so that the air can cir
culate freely through it. Those who obey
the laws OF health need have no fear of
sunstroke. The treatment of sunstroke
should vary somewhat, according to the
condition of the patient. La all cases he
should be removed to a cool and shady
place, and the clothing stripped from his
body. If the head is hot cold water or
ice should be kept constantly applied to
the head and neck, and hot water to the
hands and feet. If the skin is cool and
moist, the entire surface of the body
should be vigorously and continuously
rubbed until reaction takes place. If the
skin is hot and dry, then the whole body
should be rubbed with cloths wet in the
coldest water that can be obtained OF
with pieces of ice, until recovery takes
place, as it almost invariably will under
this treatment. Bleeding in such cases,
as practiced by many, is almost certain
death.

A DOuble-Headed Snake,

a strange reptile hes been added to
the already known singular geological
existence of Australia. A double headed
snake has been discovered. Porfessor
Halford thus describes it: each head
was perfect in its own anatomy-muscles,
bones, poison glands, and fangs. Each
neck was perfect for about ten vertebra.
when they blended with one body and
tail OF the snake. There were two gull
lets, two wind.pipes, and two breasts, of
which the right was the largest, as was
the right head. The distribution of the
blood vessels | have not yet traced. There
were two intelligences belonging to one
progressive apparatus, and the result was
very interesting to witness The right
head wished to so one way and the left
the other as the neck vertebra of each
departed from the other at a very acute
angle, the result was a simple onward
movement of the common body. When
a common danger threatened, then the
lett head twisted itself round the right
one SOFAS to be in the same line, and then
progression was tolerably quick" Since
the above snake was caught another of
the same tribe answering the same descrip-.
ton has been captured.

THE CURRANT WORM.

We are Informed by DR.. Il. Worcester
of Waltham, that the currant worm, so
destructive to favorte fruit, may be full :
ly and almost Immediately DESTROYED by
the use of carbolate of lime The Doc
tor tried the powder in many instances
during the past summer, and found that
while it was full as effective as hellebro,.
it was less disagreeabc, less costly, and
perfectly safe. The method of using it
is to sprinkle it over the vines as soon as
the worm makes its appearance, bringing
1t well III contact with the leaves. and
soon the insect is destroyed. 1t will need
but two or three applications and the
work is done, In this way for few cents
large quantities of currant bushes may be
saved and the fruit allowed to mature,
and no danger whatever incurred Meth
er the foliage nor the fruit is in any way
injured by the carbolate of lime. 1t will
be we'll for our readers to remember this
