A HERO.

There is enough of heroism and nerve
in the way Tennessee locomotive en-
gineer met his death to temper with SYM
pathy the judgement which his fool-hardi-
ness deserves. He was employed on the
Georgia and East Tennessee railroad, and
was cautiously working his way over the
track with passenger train just after the
recent floods had subsidized. He reached
Sweetwater Creek over which a temporary
bridge had been built in place of the one
washed away by the swollen waters 1t
seemed Insecure, and he feared to risk his
train and his passengers in crossing it; so,
unconpling the engine from its tender, and
ordering the fireman to leave his post,
that but one life might be endangered, he
dashed at full speed for the other bank.
There were moments Of breathless sus-
pense, then a crash of broken timbers, an
explosion, cloud of steam, and
wrecked engine. The engineer was seen
no more the rushing river into which he
fell swept his body far away, leaving only
his name, David Holloway, to memorize
his generous but reckless act.

Isuppose there is not in the whoc Of lysical's
experience anything In human suffering which calls
forth his sympathy and pity to such extent to
suffering from that fearful disease Rheumatism.
Heretofore there has been considerable diversity
opinion among medical men, as to the true charac
ter of this disease: some locating in the ibrous
muscular tissues OF the system, and others viewing
1t as an acute nervous sease; but it is gener-
ally admitted to he disease arising from poison
circulating in the blood and further it l. admitted
that rheumatism can never be thoroughly cure Il
without eXtermnatng such poisono 5 matters from
the blood by constitutional intel nal remedy. We
feel confident that none will feel better satisfied and
rejoice more than the conscientious physician who
has found out that Il trae cure for this stubborn
disease has been discovered. The following testi.
mony from Portland gentleman cannot fail to sat.
