The San Francisco Chronicle chronicles
the death and funeral of a young spi.
rltualist medium named Henry Chase,
in which there is q rather ludicrous
illustration of the strength of the ruling
passion after death. The young man 8
mother preached his funeral sermon. in
which she said that since his death she
had had several interviews with him. In
life he was jolly and frolicsome youth,
and while his corpse was being prepared
for burial, he entered the room and gave
his mother to understand that she did
not think he would make such On ugly
looking corpse" During the whole pro-
cess OF dressing him after death he was
present in tho room, cutting up antics,
jumping about, standing on his head, and
doing other funny things. So little use
is thero for ones body, that one may per.
form all these acrobatio feats even when
deprived OF it..

longs. BY such mon. by snch brave
speakers, by such unconquerable caucus
Warriors. we're we persuaded into war.
When the flower Of both sections were
falling on bloody fields, Mr.. Voorhees,
was still making pretty speeches in Con-
gress.
Since actual hostilities ceased. this
gentleman hos insisted that the South
should stand by it's colors; and, by so
doing, the South has lost everything,
while kIr. Voorhees, and his associates
have kept in Congress-. Now let all peo.
pie OF his way Of thinking understand
that their one.sided game is played out.
Ihe South is as tired of the costly friend
ship OF pretended frienda as OF the con-
stant victories Of open enemies.
Il Mr. Voorhees, has nothing more
solid to appeal to than the past passions
OF the Southern people, he had better
begin to cultivate new talent, that of
silence, and try to learn lesson which
has been taught to wiser men-that the
worm will turn when trodden on.
Certainly. having steadfastly resisted
the encroachments and aggressions Of
the absolute rulers of this country, we
are neither foolish nor craven enough to
submit to the diotation of an imbecile
minority.
Ii we were towards, they are impotent
to execute threat
Ii we were venai, they could honor no

No! no! no! Let that clique OF the
Northern Democracy which ties it's for.

hty OF Soothern conservatism receive
the truth in time. We are aiok OF gam.

(already defeated) Seymours. We oan-
not again place issues OF life and death
at the disposal OF the New York World.
we will not again save local Donors and
spoils to the faithful" in Indiana by the
sacrifice OF life, liberty and property by
the people Of South Carolina, Mississip-
pi and Arkansas.
We are in the Union! We have 134
electoral votes. The college consists Of
357! We are again power in the land /!
We ask neither Mr.. VOORHEES, nor Mr..

SUHSTReKE.

A work entitled, It'll the Doctor
Comes, and How to Help Him." gives
the following directions for the treat
ment Of sunstroke until medical aiG
can be obtalued: Sunstroke Is sudden
prostitution, due to long exposure to
great heat, especially when one Is
much fatigued or exhausted. II com-
monty happens from undue exposure
to the suns rays In Summer. but I
have seen the same effect produced In a
baker from tho great heat Of the bake
room. 1t begins with pain In the head
or dizziness, quickly followed by loss
Of consciousness and complete prostra-
ton. Some times, however, the at
tack Is as sudden a q stroke of the ap-
oplexy. The head Il often burning
hot, the face dark and swollen. the
breathing labored and snoring and the
extrenitles cold. Take the patient at
oncs to a cool and shady place, but
don't carry him far to a house or hos
pltal. Loosen tho clothes thoroughly
about his neck aud waist. Lay him
down with the head u little raised.
Apply wet cloths to the head. and
mustard or turpentine to the calves
and soles Of the feet. Give a little
weak whisky and water II he can swal-
low. Meanwhile let some one 60 for
the doctor. You cannot safely do
more than I have said without his ad-
vice.

The law which made 1t such has had a
wonderful effect o Its direct importa.
lions. A. an instance of this rapid
growth OF the foreign trade 1t may be
stated that from January lst to May
lst, $780, 600 have been collected as
duties OH imports. Two years ago the
dutie. amounted to 5000 600 a year.
while now they have reached the sum
Of three millions OF dollars per annum
st. Louis collects 81. 500. 900 per year,
and one-third Of that sum Is from sugar.
Chicago, ut the present rate. will soon
take a prominent rank among the I'M
porting cities. During tho month OF
April the imports under seal amounted
to $4O4. 39i ; imports direct from Can

SINGULAR ACCIDENT,

From the Eureka Sentinel, June al
Last night, about S o'clock, the wife
of a prominent hotel keeper In this
place received a painful wound through
the ankle By the discharge Of pistol.
A gentleman who boards in the house
was in the act Of seating himself In a
chair rear the psrlor door, when his
pistol was In some unaccountable AN
ner Jared OH with the above unfortun-
ate result. DR.. Chamblln was called
and n examination Of the wound as
certained that no bones were broken.
The wound IA, ofcourse, quite painful,
though the attending physician Is Of
the opinion that 1t Is not nc all serious.
The gentleman whose pistol was dis
charged Is deeply pained at the unfor-
tunate occurrence, though 1t was one
of those unforeseen accidents that some
times happen without apparent cause.
He had not the remotest idea that the
pistol was not entirely safe. Al the
time Of the accident the lady was
standing some five or six feet from
him. The ball entered a little above
the ankle joint and ranged downward.

BY HORACE.

Judge Will Campbell does not think
Horace Greeley will do to bet on at all
In the matter Of steadfast reliability or
straightforward political honesty. The
other evening at the big Republican
Ratification meeting at Virginia City,
Campbell being called upon to address
the multitude, responded, and In the
course of his remarks said: ~ used
to think Greeley was quite reliable,
but he has humbugged me. Once |
was a Democrat, heart and soul. and
went In for all the measures Of the
party accordingly. When the war
broke out, I took the New York Tri-
6une. and one day l read a leader in It
In which Horace said It was not right
to make this war, and that 1t was just
and right to let the seeding States 90
II they earnestly wished a separation,
l thought, however, that II all the
Democrats aud Republicans agreed to
it, the war would have to 60 OH, and
1t did. Now what next did the old
Parsnip DO? He came out square
footed with. ION to Richmond" lie
had chopped on himself. Mr.. De Long
say. 1t won't DO to abuse IN adversary,
but I will say what l like about Gree
ley, for he did humbug me. He may
raise beets, aud turnips, and cabbages,
but he can't raise the l4Oo-foot level Of
the Savage up to the 700. When he
does, he shall be President, and moi

Nh. JOSEPH JEEFERsoN, the actor,
whose threatened loss Of sight has been
announced, is slowly recovering. but
is, and will be for some time, confined
to his darkened room. The history
Of the c,se Il as follows: lie began
last January to observe \ dlmuess In
the vision Of the eye, aud felt a con-
siderable pain In that region ever
siuce. He supposed ho had simply
caught cold and paid no attention to
It.. Sometimes he supposed 1t might
be a result Of his smoking. or again
that it was the effect Of the glaring
footlights. A particular kind Of foot
light Is carried with him wherever he
goes because he makes so much use Of
his eyes In acting, and the light must
fall upon them IN a certain way. The
physicians do not say whether any or
all these causes have produced the dis
ease. On the sth Of June, after com
pleting an engagement at Baltimore,
he consented to undergo an operation,
and returned to his home at HchokuI.
The operation, which consisted Of re-
moving a portion Of the diseased Iris.
was successfully performed. since when
the patient has been gradually recov-
cring.
