There seemed to be no necessity for the
telegram from California assuring people on
this side of the continent that public opinion
in the Pacific States long since acquitted Sen
ator Casserly of any corrupt motives or prac-
tees in securing his election. That might
have seemed necessary to an Administration
newspaper, feverish with desire to get even
for Pomeroy, Caldwell, and the Credit Mo-
bilier party of culprits. But Senator Casserlys
course iu the Senate has been so blameless and
above the breath of suspicion that any re-
yiyaI of ancient and frivolous charges against
him would be thoroughly Intellectual for harm
The matter was fairly investigated just after
Mr.. Casserly's election, five years ago, and
was dismissed as utterly without any basis of
truth. If Republican Senatorial damages are
to be repaired by the tn qGoque process, the
retOrt has been unfortunately delivered in this
case.

The Impartial is a newspaper of good stand
ing, but it gave currency yesterday to an ex-
traordinary story. 1t says that Don Carlos
has abdicated bis right to the crown of Spain
in favor of his infant son, and has appointed
as Regent his brother Don Alfonso, now In
Spain with the Carlist soldiers. 1t is also
stated that Gen. Cabrera has at last Joined
the instruction. This is in direct cOntradic-
ton to the news received several weeks
ago, that Cabrera had given in his al
legiance to the Republic. If it be true that
he has now consented to take charge of the
insurrectOnary forces, it is probable that he
has insisted upon the abdicatiOn of the Preten-
der as a preliminary. They have been on bad
terms for several years, on account OF the
impatient and insubordinate spirit manifested
by the young prince in former rebellions.
Cabrera, though now advanced in years, is
regarded as the ablest soldier attached to the
Carlist cause. If he has decided to leave his
comfortable home in England to confront the
risks and hardships of an active campaign In
the mountains of Navarro and ArragOn, 1t
will show greater confidence in the success
of the rebels than any intelligent person has
as yet seemed to entertain. If this report Is
confirmed, the instruction will enter upon a
new and more formidable phase.

Why ws stoG,d wear Boards.

There are more solid induce ments for wearing the beard than the mere Improvement of @ mans personal appearance and the cul- tivati0n of such an aid 10 the eve ry day diplomacy Of life. The hair of the mOustache not only absorhes the moisture and miasmu of the fogs, but it strains the air from dust and the sOot of our great. smoky cities. It acts also in the most scientific manner, by taking heat from the warm breath as it leaves the chest, and supplying it to the cold air taken in. It is not only a respirator, but with beard entire we are sup. piled with q comforter as well, and these are never left at home like the umbrellas and such ap- plications when they are wanted. MOffat and Livingstone, the ex. plorerS, and many other travellers, say that at night no wrapper can equal the beard. A remarkable fact is, too, that the beard like the hair Of the head, protects against the heat of the sun; 1t acts as the thatch does to the ice-house; but, more than this, it becOms moist with precipitation, and then, by evaporation, coolS the skin.
 A man who accepts this protec- ton of nature may face the rudest storm; go from the hottest room into the coldest air without dread; and we verify believe that he might sleep in d morass with im- punity; at l9ast his chance of es- caping the terrible fever would be better than his beardlesS com- panions.

A great discovery is said to have

A great discovery is said to have been recently made by a surgeon of the British army in China, in the way Ofan effectual remedy for small pox. The mode of treat ment is as follows: "Whea the preceding fever is at it's night, and just before tho eruption ap- pears, the chest is rubbed with crOton oil and tartaric liniment.n This causes the whole ofthe erup. ton to appear on that part of the body to the relief of the rest. It also secures q full and complete eraption, and thus prevents the disease from attacking the inter- nal organs. This is now the es. tablished mode of treatment in the English army iu China, and is regarded as a perfect cure.
