THE HORSE DIsTEMPER. Johnson's Con-
diton Powders are recommended by Vet
Urinary Surgeons and horse-men as the best
known specific for the prevention and cure
OF the Canadian malady at present affecting
the horses of this country. Cases where
they are not taken in season to prevent the
contagion, but are used before the disease
gets firmly seated, run much lighter and with
less effect upon the animal. When the dis
ease has taken hold of the horse if the pow
ders are given in frequent doses speedy
pure is guaranteed. johnson Bros. sole pro-

The Marriage of the Grand opera
House Ballet Girl.

From Jno new i Ork lelegfdpn.J
Miss Acheson is one of the eight very
beautiful girls forming the first line Of
coryphees in the Cashmere ballet in the
second act of Lalla Rookh. She is
about eighteen years of age, a perfect
blonde, and by reason of her peculiar
charms is, perhaps, the more noticeable
of any in the ballet organization of the
Grand Opera House. She resides with
her widowed mother, whose only sup
port she has been for the past two years,
and it is creditable to Mr. Sherman that
upon making just inquiry concerning
the young lady reputation, and being
satisfied on that score, he sought to visit
her humble home, which request was
modestly granted. There giving re-
newed expression to his love he was for
mally accepted as a suitor.
Mr.. Sherman is a commission mer-
chant, doing business with his father on
Front street, this city, is twenty three
years of age, and of very proposing
appearance and manners. He express
ed himself at the Grand Opera House
last evening as annoyed at the newspaper
notoriety given him, and said he was
thoroughly aware Of the importance of
the affair to his future welfare and hap
piness, and that, having the consent of
the young lady and her mother, and his
own people not interpesing any obsta-
cles to the union, and being abundantly
able to support wife in creditable style,
he trusted the general public would take
no interest in an arrangement which
really concerned no one but the high
high contracting parties.

named there will be present at the bri-
dal fete on Sunday evening next Mr.. j.

THE WIFE OF CARL sCHURz.
An interesting Incide en- of the g. Grea
speech of the Missouri Senator.

6PDCCh VI tnG DChetOEs
A Washington letter to the New Or
leans Times Says:
The effort made by Carl Schurz will
be long remembered as one of the most
remarkable exhibits of oratory ever
witnessed in chamber famous for such
display. Those now living who can
look back with knowledge to the day
Webster, Calhoun and Corwin were wont
to charm the ears Of hearers in that
forum, readily admit that this effort of
Senator Schurz's towers above them all.
This is saying much, for the natural in
clination is to exaggerate the past. The
orators of former day were remarkable,
but this of ours is a wonder Senator
Schurz has a remarkable clear and
rather a piercing voice. He speaks
with a great command of language and
somewhat of German accent, but so
far as choice of words and construction
of sentences are concerned, in the purest
English. For hours he held the vast as
sembly, and when he closed there was a
strange mingling Of relief and regret
such as one feels at the end of beauti-
ful and tragic opera, when the last strain
pours itself out as the curtain falls.
/ happened to be witness to a little
scene Of domestic beauty that was to me
exceedingly touching. Mrs. Schurz,
wife Of the Senator, is one of the most
beautiful and accomplished women in
Washington. Her experience in social
life has not diminished her sweet Ger

subsequently learned, the attack made
by Senator Conkling, and wife-like she
thought it terrible and unanswerahle
On the Tuesday Senator Schurz was to
reply she wandered about restlessly, and,
at last, unable to control herself, about
three o'clock went to the capitol. She
thought he would have concluded by
that time, and all for good or bad must
be over. At the first entrance she found
the doorkeeper with his head thrust
aside. She asked for her husband.
/ [" OH madam, cried the man, he's
making such speechl Come in; all the
ladies are on the floor.
She held back, and page hurrying
in, brought out Senator Sumner.
"Do come in, begged the Massachu-
setts orator, and hear your husband in
the grandest effort that ever fell from
human lips"
Over persuaded, she was led through
the crowd to corner, where she drop
ped into a seat kindly offered to her.
She dropped her fair head in her hands,
hiding her face, and we can imagine
heard that dear voice in vindication-
and in such ax earnes. appeal to the
American people for justice to ourselves
and purity of our institutions, while the
immense audienc responded in deep
silence or wild applause. When that
voice ceased and at last she looked up,
her eyes were wet with tears. Woman
like, she had found relief in weeping.

Bfsmarck's Enemy-The Man Who
Was TO AssassinRte Him.


The vossiche Zeitung q ne the follow
ing account of the young An who was
recently arrested in Berlin under sus-
picious circumstances:
Westerwell is the illegitimate son of a
Polish countess and Belgian noble
man, and was born in Luckenwalde. he
never knew his parents personally, but
when an infant was placed in the hands
of a guardian, by whom, after tedious
lawsuit, he was consigned to a letter.
carrier called Westerwell, who adopted
him, being himself childless, after OBJ
tanning from the father a considerable
sum of money by way of remuneration.
As the mother at his birth had con-
cealed herself under an assumed name,
and the father had to keep his own
name secret. the suit excited the curl
osty Of the public not a little, and all
sorts of conjectures we're hazarded about
the parties directly concerned in the
case, The young Westerwell gave his
adopted parents, whose name he as
sumed, very little satisfaction. He was
not diligent, learned little, and, far
from being pious, he INDUCED in every
sort of frivolity and immortality; so that
his soster-father was not ill-pleased when
his adopted SON left him in 1867. In
the ranks Of the Papal Zouaves he is
said to have conducted himself better
than when he was here. The Prussian
military authorities had pronounced
him unfit for the army, which will sur
prise no one who has noted the feebly
developed person and the timid, unman-
ly mien of the young Westerwell.
