ever, gives the following suggestions
by an eminent physician," Which seem
to be marked by u degree Of common
sense and apparent medical knowledue
that renders them valuable. The first
thing, says this authority, is in all cases
to send for physician; The next, to Sc.
iect nurse. A mustard plaster, placed
on the back ut cnce, will be of service.
The patient should be removed. as soon
as taken. to the highest room in the
house. Suoh room is more quiet, the
air ls frcsher ind purer, und the risk of
infection rs to the other parts OF the
house Is much iessened. A sheet now

ABOUT the room, saturated with brorno.

cases. one part OF the disinfectunt to
TWO parts OF water-will absorb the poi-
son IN measnfe, and should never bo

Ment uses, even into the basin thut re-.
celVes his saliva, the mixture should be
poured md kept. Keep the room com
parAtiyeiy dark. and at moderate tenn.
perature-about sixty degrees-ani re-
member the sick man must have air.
The nurse must not leave tho room: ali
bedding must be burned by her, and all
clothes That cannot be boiled. A mat
tress is far better than feather bed for
the patient to lie on; but if feather bed
ls used, it becomes the very rankest poi
son, saturated, and almost impossible to
dlsinteot, and must be burned immedi.
ately on recovery.

Another war between railroads has
been on the boards during tho past week,
which has been Of vital interest to trav-
elers. 1t has now subsidized. The " CON-
bat I" vas between the Hannibal 4 St.
Joseph, Missouri Pacific, North Missouri
and Kansas City, St. Joseph / Council
Bluffs railroads. The war was caused
BY cutting dowpof rates to tho Quaker
conventiosat Indianapolis. The North
Missouri sold srickc;s At the following
rates from LeavcnwOrth: to Chicago,
$50; 10 st. Louis, $500; to Louisville
$500, and Cincinnati, sl4.50. The
rates to st. Louis were even reduced to
as low as $500. The Offices Of the differ.
cnt roads at Leavenworth were thfong-
ed with ticket buyers. Every body
wanted to 60 east. This was managing
the monopolies better than the grangers
could do it. Sick of their bargains, the
agents of the roads finally had q confer
ence, Saturday evening, and agreed to
restore regular rates. The war is now be-
lieved to be over.

All America has been awaiting that
balloon ascension. and just as people
supposed the aerial navigator was TO take
its fight, the news came that it was
"ripped" from stem to stern. The
imitation of the balloon commenced al
an early hour on Friday last, and was
continued steadily until past four p. M,
when it suddenly swayed 10 the north,
ripped half way around with great
tearing sound, and fell fiat upon the
ground. An immense volume Of gas
which had been pumped into it, nearly
100000 feet, escaped at the same mo.
ment, nearly suffocating those who
stood on the inside. The crowd made a
general rush over the ropes with the
intention of tearing up the canvass into
small pieces as mementoes, but strong
force of police on the ground charged
and drove them back. Mr.. Stiner, who
bad contracted to ill the balloon, said il
would be folly to attempt another in
flation, as the balloon was not made OF
the proper materials, so navigation >
is abandoned for the present. The
Graphic is determined to prosecute the
enterprise, and has announced its deter.
mination 10 construct silk balloon for
Prof. Donaldson. The Philadelphia
Herald, also, announces balloon enter
prise in that city on an entirely new
plan OF imitation and construction.
Hence, balloon trip is not yet imp os.

The following letter, written by Hon.
D. P. Lowe, NJ. c., to tho editor Of the
Burlington Patriot, We find in the last
number Of that journal:
FORT ScOTT, Sept. Z, 1873.
EDITOR PATRIOT: For your candid
and kindly expressions in reference to
myself in connection with the salary
subject in the Patriot of the 18th ult., 1
wish to express my thanks. That the
measure itself was mistake is now evil
dent, although the candid judgment of
the M cmbers of congress, including a
majority of those who continually OPP
posed ii, was tina. the measure was just,
and that the compensation ought to be
raised from the old basis. Regarding
the measure myself as impoii,ic, | con-
sistcntly and persistcntly voted against
It at every stage, giving six square votes
against it, until it lad been made part
OF the general appropriation bill and
approved unanimously by committee
Of conference o: both houses. l then
voted for the conference report to pass
the appropriation bill. Now l insist
that u vote topass an indispensable APP
preparation bill at the last hours Of con-
.rcss to which an object enable amend
men, had tcen attached by no help OF
nine, but in opposition and half a dozen
square votes against it, leaves me in no
real and just responsibility for the meas
ure. The doctrine of the New York
Times is the plain and simple justice OF
the case, that those who consistently
and continuously opposed the measure
before the incoming of the conference
report, which embraced other vital leg
is!a,ion, arc not properly responsible
for the measure.
opposed the measure myself and do
not regard an opposition TO il by the
press as necessarily antagonistic to me.
But it has been made the occasion OF
personal assault wholly unjustifiablc by
the facts. Most OF it, however, which
emanated from the Republican press has
been from those having what they sup
pose arc personal grievances. As TO
myself | have no fears OF the ultimate
Judgment of my fcllow-citizens, when
tho elements of passion and malice shall!
have been eliminated fro'n the discus
sion. and candor AMI reason be allowed
their proper voice. Yours, cordially.

Aprominent citizen of Cincinnati who

country quiet and the people ready to
talk freely about their troubles. They
Claim that the account Of affairs recently

Journals much exaggerated and troubles
will be stopped by due course OF law.
One prominent lawyer states that be

were respectable citizens who had no
sympathy with murderer-, and that with
in q short time full disclosures would be
made secret of the order, and those
who have rcp~nted Of their connection
would assist in supprsssing IT. The ne
cessity of martial law Is not realized
by any one. Another prominent lawyer
Of Owea county asserted that there
was no established order, and that tho
offenders were merely common thieves
and murderers. The Owen county au-

Specials from Grand Haven, Michig IN,
give the following account Of the
laundering Of the propeller lroosides of
that port yesterday n. B. Watkins,
clerk OF the boat says: We left Nilwau-
kee = $40 last night with nineteen pas
sengers and a crew Of thirty men, and
were due in Grand Haven between five
and six this morning. The cargo con-
sisted of $1,000 bushels of wheat, 500
barrels Of -four and 225 barrels Of some
miscellaneous freight. This was large
cargo, since the boat could carry only
Ito tons, and moderate breeze was
blowing from the southwest, and con-
stantly increased until it became q ter
ifc gale before daylight. I did not get
up until Q o'clock, when the boat was
reeling fearfully. Immediately went
below and found the men working at
the pumps. The water had already put
out the fires, and the engines were use-
less. then went 10 the cfiice and got
the passenger register, money and man
ifest, and to the hurricane deck where I
found Captain Sweetman getting the
foresail out. He was thoroughly self
possessed, and the men obeyed his or
ders promptly. We then we're about
three miles from the shore. The signal
of distress had been raised at 9:3O
! About ten o'clock the passengers all put
on life-prcservers, for it was evident
the boat must 60 down. At 1l:2O
the captain ordered the boats TO be
manned. In the first boat all the lady
passengers, except one, were placed; in
the second boat ten or twelve passengers
and the crew. l took charge o. the
third boat, which carried seven passcn-
gers, including one lady and two Of the
crew. besides myself, all of whom were
saved. After had pushed off l saw
two or three other boats leave the wreck,
in one which supposed the captain to be.
My boat was hardly half a mile from tho
Ironsides when she sank stern foremost
about FIVE miles from shore. 1t was ten
minutes past twelve when she disappear
ed. She was estimated to be worth
about SIS GOO. She was thoroughly over.
hauled last winter and was considered
one OF the staunchest boats Oh the lake
