From the Troy N. Y.) Press.l
Some 2 years ago young man resi-
ding in this city married one ofthe fair
daughters Of Troy. One child, little
girl, was the issue Of the marriage.
Trouble came between the man ana
wife very soon. aud about two months
ago he got divorce on the ground OF
adultery. but the wife had the custody
Of the child. After the separation the
wife took the child and went to living
with another man and his wife. About
three weeks ago the husband got pos
session OF the child. without the wife 5
knowledge, aud took the little girl out
to Rochester to live with his lthe hus-
band's) aunt. He remained there with
the child. The wife at length learned
where the child was secreted, and her
friends furnished her with money to so
after her. By mistake she left the cars
eight miles this side of Rochester, and
went on foot to that city, where, from
directions given her, she found the
house where the child was secreted, In
the suburbs. As she came to the house
she saw her husband playing In the
yarQ with the CnlIu. oue IHl loE tHe
little girl, and the husband seeing her
approach, caught up the child and ran.
The wife pursued, and tainted three
times while in pursuit, the last time
so as not to be able to move. Some
twenty Of the neighbors had Joined in
the pursuit. and some Of them now told
the husband he must stop. He drew n
revolver and said he would shoot any
one that came near him. Finally he
agreed to take the child back to the
house, and did so, the wife accompany
ing him. Then it was arranged that
they should come to Troy together,
and bring the child with them. The
wife was pleased with this arrange
ment. On the way out. the husband
said he would 60 back and the wife
might take the child, but he would not
live with her. He went out OF the car
and pretended to leave the train. The
loving wife thereupou tainted again

KNOXVILLE, Tenn, May 20, 1872.
To the Readers Of The Ueekly Chronicle.
We have Just entered upon the third
year of our Real Estate Agency, and with
its commencement we have concluded TO
adopt a new feature in regard to our col
umn in the WEEKLY Chronicle. We
propose to change it frequently, and to use
it for the purpose Of describing in detail
some OF the farm property which we have
for sale, and for giving information, from
time to time, about the country.
We are pleased to say that the efforts
that have been made during the past few
years, TO bring the attractions of East Ten
nessee prominently before the Northern
people, have. to quite large extent. been
successful, and the number of those seek
ing homes in our section is constantly in
creasing. Almost without exception. new
corners are well pleased, and we can as
sure all good citizens, that they will find
% hearty welcome, and heaithful, salu-
brious climate in East Tennessee.
We invite correspondence from all QUAR-
ters, and will cheerfully furnish any in
formation that may be desired.
We have remaining few cepies of orr
Land Register for January and July, 1871.
which contain interesting and reliable in
formation about our section, and which
VIII be sent free ON receipt Of stamps for
return postage. We also have a correct
will be forwarded to any address on re-
ceipt of % cents. Many persons are not
acquainted with the best routes bv rail-
road To East Tennessee, and for the infor-
nation of such we submit the following:
Residents of the New England States New
York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania and
Delaware should come via Washington
city, and Lynchburg, Va. The fare from
New York city is 500, and from Washing
ton 81 80.
Persons living in Ohio and the Western
States should come via Louisville, Ky.,
and Nashville, Tenn. The fare from
Louisville is 500. Emigrant tickets can be
had nj considerable reduction from these
rates.
Parties coming here to examine the
country need have no hesitation in calling
Mt our office, as it is free and open to all
new comers and we furnish lists of pro-
perry for sale and information free of or
pcnSe, whether purchase is made or not.
We can save such persons many items of
expense by telling them where to look for
the property they wish, and they need
have no fears of being deal with otherwise
than in an honest and upright man
ncr.
we have no sympathy with land sharks.
we are using every effort in our power to
assist in the development of the wonder
| ful and varied resources of our section.
ana we nave no desire to misrepresent
lacts or induce persons to come here from
false or overdrawn statements as to our adj
vantages.
Our list of country property is, by far,
TOO extensive for publication in one COL
umn of the CHRONICLE, but we add de-
scrlptlon of small number of farms, which
will be changed from time to time as new
ana attractive offers are added to our list.
For a special list of city and suburban
property, we invite attention to the DAILY
CHRONICLE.
Very respectfully,

SUNSTROKE.
It's Prevention and Treatment.

The gradual frightening of the range
of the thermometer and the occasional re-
port of case of sunstroke, remind us UNI
pleasantly that the plague Of our hot sum-
mers and close cities is upon us, and sug-
gcsts that we take the proper precautions
for its prevention and understand some
thing of its proper treatment. A lnowl-
edge of its rational treatment should be
possessed by ALL for the disease is often so
rapidly fatal that the patient not unfre-
.quently dies before medical aid can be had.
The following extract from an able article
by DIR. II. G. Wood, in LippincoH for July
contains much valuable information on
the subject and should be carefully read by
all those who are exposed to intense heat
"Thcre should in such cases be no wait
ing for the doctor. The remedy is so simple
and the death so imminent, that the good
samaritan passing should save his brother
The good Samaritan must, however have
. a cool head to be useful. Not every man
that falls unconscious on summers day
has sunstroke. There is, fortunately, one
criterion so easy of application that any
one may use it. Go at once to the fallen
man, open his shirt bosom and lay your
hand upon his chest; if the skin be cool
you may rest assured, that whatever else
may be the trouble it is not sunstroke. If
on the contrary, the skin be burning hot,
the case is certainly sunstroke and no time
should be lost. The patient must be carried
TO the nearest pump or hydrant, stripped
to his waist, and bucketful after bucketful
of cold water dashed over him until con-
seriousness begins to return or the intense
heat of the surface decidedly abates"
"There is an old and homely saying that
an ounce of preventive is worth a pound
of cure, saying which though thread
bare with its centuries of daily use, still
holds together as firmly as when first
knit. If the abstraction of heat is the true
cause for suntrole, it is also the true pre-
ventive. DO not let the heat accumulate
in the body. When duty forces one into
exposure to heat there are various meas
ures that ought to be adopted. The cloth
ing should be light and whitsh in color
and fit loosely. Flannel is probably. on
the whole the best material. A roomy,
wide brimmed porous hat should he used,
and in the crown of it may he placed wet
towel or large handkerchief Water
should be freeley used, externally and inter-
naly. Very close to the surface of the
wrist rises large artery, the radial, and
the old custom of allowing cold water to
run over the wrist, no doubt owes its value
to the fact that so much blood is brought
almost in contact with the cooling water.
Sweating is natures great refrigerative
remedy, and to keep up this, large quanti-
ties of water should be drunk not too cold,
but without stint-quarts if the thirst crave
1t. Keep sweating and you are probably
not in immediate danger; but when on
July or August day "a mans head begins to
throb and the surface grows dry and hot,
whilst unwonted lassitude and restessness
come on, as he values his life let him leave
his work, however imperative, and take at
once a cold bath.
