GnizOt's Honor.

II appears that the executors OF n
Guizot's will are still pressing their suit
against the Empress Eugenie to compel
her TO receive back, in the name of her
late husband, the sum of fifty thousand
francs, which, it will be remembered,
was advanced to the son of the great
statesman snd historian by the Emperor
Napoleon. The circumstances under
which the loan was effected are recalled
by . Paris correspondent;
The painful and mortilying fact that
the younger Guizot had applied to the
Emperor for peouniary assistance unbe.
known to his father whose relations to the
Imperial family, both social and political
were such as to make him scorn any
thing like favor from the Emperor s
hands, caused the family great grief and
indignation. 1t never came to the faith
er' ears until 1870 when open reference
was made to it by Emily Olivier On
the occasion of the latters election to
the Academy, in reply to M. Guizots
indiscreet sneeF Gbopt ceur leger, he
replied: Better to have c@ur leger
than ceur ingrat," referring plainly to
the money given by the Emperor to his
son. The father resolved at once to
pay back the money, and in order to OBJ.
tain the means to do so he sold the
famous painting of "St John and the
Lamb" by Murillo, presented to him by
Queen Christina OF Spain. The painting
was eagerly purchased by Baron Roths-
child for l25,0OO francs, but the Empress
stoutly refused to receive the money.
The money supposed to be due, with in.
terest now amounts to 100000 francs,
and was again rendered recently to the
Empress at the hotel of her representa-
tive in Paris, NJ. Rouher, and by him
again refused in her name. Should their
decree be that the Empress is bound
legally to accept the tender, it is her in
tention Immediately to pay over the
money to some charitable institution.

SPECIAL NOTICE.

CoSsUMPrIvEs, TAKE oroE.-Every mo-
ment of delay makes your cure more hope
less. and much depends on tho judicious
choice of rOmedy. The amount of testi-
mony in favor Of DR.. Schenck's Pulmonic
Syrup, as q cure for consumption, far exceeds
all that can be brought to support the preten-
sions Of any other medicine. See DR..
Schenck's Almanac, containing the certih-
Gates Of many persons of the highest respeota-
bility. who have been restored to health, after
being pronounced incurable by physicians Of
acknowledged ability. Schenek's Pulmonic
Syrup alone has cured many, as these evil
dences will show; bat the cure is often pro-
NOTED by the employment Of two other rene
dies which Dr, Schenck provides for the pur-
pose. These additional remedies are schenek s
Sea Weed Tonic and Mandrake Pulls. By the
timely use Of those medicines, according TO
directions, DR.. Schenck eertihes that most
any case Of consumption may be cured.

FINAL DECISION
of the question. To the report we append
tabular statement of the estimated cost.
They believe these estimates to be
as nearly correct as it is possible
to make them with the data on hand, and
that you may feel assured that each one of
these plans can be executed for the price
named. You will see-t that they have recon-
mended the cheapest plan as the
best. Eppinghausen's plan will cost
sl,6l0, 462; Cooper's plan will cost
81 ,S03,s 07, and Johnson's plan will cost
81 ,S6SsS SOB. These figures represent the cost
OF the naked building. To this there must
be added furnishing, for which $50, 900 will
be fair and sufficient allowance
and also the payment of the architect and
superintendent. II the above cost of the
naked building be taken, and there be added
ten per cent. for all changes, charges and
contingencies, an amount your commit
fee are satisfied is fully sufficient
for the purpose. the cost would then be. for
Eppinghausen's plan, Sl,77l, sos; for Coop
ers plan, 81, go, 1S7 and for Johnson 50 055
6S3. But If you should choose
Johnson's plan, and substitute wood
10: iron frames, door and sash
should choose Coopers, and reduce the dome
there would be fair margin left for all con-
tingencies. But, in any event, the plan we
recommend TO you as
FIRST BEST
leaves an ample margin, and there can not
be shadow of doubt that it can be exc
cuted, completed and ready to be oc.
cupied inside of the prescribed limit

NOVELTIES IN MEDICAL SCIENCE.

INTERESTING SCIENTIFIC DEVELOPMENTS
WITH A 6sALvANIC BATTERY ON THE BODY
oFAN EXECUTED MURDERER.
A Philadelphia dispatch to the New York.
Times, dated 18th, says that after the eXecu-
ton of Heidenblut, the murderer, there be-
ing no claimant for the body, the corpse
was placed in charge of DR.. +. f. Maury,
who desired to establish certain scientific
points as yet unsolved. The body was AIKEN 70
Jefferson Medical College this afternoon,
where Drs. W. w. Keen. Carl Seller. Thomas
G.. Morton, f. f. Maury, and Thomas s.
Kirkbride, began a series, of experiments
which lasted several hours, and revealed
some important facts. 1t bad been sugges-
ted by Dr. s.. Weir Mitchell, one of the ablest
Investigators, to DIR. Keen, that q case
recently developed in London, as to the
effect OF tumors, especially aneurisms, on
the vocal chords, should be made the sub
ject of scientific inquiry and IL was intended
to experiment upon one OF the brute
creation. This intention, was abandoned
when it became known. that the body
of the murderer could be procured for
this purpose. Operations were conducted
by DR.. Keen, who stated this evening that
he first dissected the chords of the neck,
which connected with the larynx, and gall
vanized each in turn, to determine whether
they acted separately or combined, on one
or both sides. For instance, when the left
chord was galvanized that only responded,
ana the same was the case with the rigk-.
He found that there YVES no crossing of
chords from one side to the other, and that
the action Of each was distinct andindepen-
dent.
THE MOVEMENT OF NERVES AND MUSCLES.
could be plainly seen-by means of small
laryngeal mirror, inserted in the throat,
and the results are undoubtedly perfect.
The doctor also examined and galvanized
separately, the external and intercostal
muscles between the, ribs, and found that
their junction was nosuniform, but different.
The question has been a matter of doubt
among medical men, but the discovery by
DIR. Keen that the external muscles are for
expiration and the internal fer inspiration,
will settle the dispute. 1t has been believed
by some that by the application of galvsnlsm,
vitality car. in a measure be revived This
impression is totally incorrect, for while the
application of battery to the frame of a
dead man from whom life has been extinct
for q short time will serve to produces mus
cular action, the.result shows that only
portion of the body, and not the 5-ain, is
excited by external power. These expert
ments reveal novelties in medical science,
and so far as known no RESULTS so satisfac-
tory have hitherto attended similar inves-
Ggation.

A paper on "Christ's Supernaturalism

previous papers from the same pen. With
this article, and the republication by Roberts
Brothers of the much discussed English
work on Supernatural Religion" we are
likely to have transplanted to our shores a
subject of debate which almost divides the

Personal.

Mr.. A. P. Condit, dry goods mer.
chant, has left us this week for the East.
Mr.. O., was in business here 13 years,
four of which he resided in our city and
among our community few gentlemen
were more respected. During the past
twelve or thirteen weeks his clearance
sale has been very largely patronized
and unamious were the regrets expressed
at his resolve to leave us. Mr.. c., has
gone to Newark, N. j., whore we can
assure the good citizens they have in
him perfect gentleman and a mer-
chant admirably adaptedto the business.
Mr.. Wagner, of the firm of Wagner
& zeigler, Qate Garvin & Co., has just
returned from the East, and with him a
large quantity of dry goods, which are
being supplemented by heavy consign-
ments daily.
Mr.. Chas. H. Read, ''that mysterious
man." of Toledo, was guest at the Kess-
Ter House on Wednesday night, and is
in our city this day (Thursday).,
We regret to learn that Mr.. @. o.
Thompson, artist, of Toledo, has been
exceedingly unwell for two weeks past
and unable to be out, but as he is pro-
crossing fayorably he hopes to bein our
city again next week.

BUCKLAND & SON.
They Make a Special Run on Paper
Hangings, Paints, Varnishes, Oils
and Brushes,

1t has long been a custom with the
ever reliable firm of BUcKLAND & Son
to be foremost in the field with novel
ties. And now they are making a spec
ial run on wall papers, paints, &C., in
which their present stock is simply i'm
mense. We were perfectly struck on
recently scanning over their paper racks
to witness the various designs and pat
terms. There are rich specimens of
gold and bronze papers, while their Sc
lected tints for halls, dining-rooms, and
Offices are particularly delicate. They
have also fine line of those beautiful
decorations used in fresco paper hang
ing, several samples from which stock
have been put up in various parts of the
city. Nor are they less prepared with
blinds and window shades, both plain
and ornamental. In fact they have some
thing in the way of novelty out this sea-
son in papers. Or should you require
paints, varnishes, brushes, &c., thev
can equally guarantee you abundant sat-
isfaction. Their supply OF the pure
rubber paints-the best in the world
warranted to stand all weathers, is also
just to hand, in any and every shade.
The rubber paint, be 1t remembered, is
a peculiar make, beautsful, durable, elias
tic, economical, and will successfully re,
sist water. The quality is uniform, and
it will last three times as long as the
best lead and oil mixed in the usual
way. For inside work it has no equals,
and will work equally on wood or plas-
ter. 1t is always ready for use, and one
gallon will cover from twenty to thirty
yards, two coats. In paint or white
wash brushes BUoKLAND & SON cannot
be beaten, while they keep the finest
varnishes, glue and oils in the market.
Before you purchase give, them a call,
on Front street, Fremont-be convinced
and you will have abundant occasion
to rejoice taking our advice besides saw
ing time and money.

COntre TENNIS.

One of our citizens who had been read
ing the Tilton-Beecher trial got an idea.
He hadn't often been troubled with such
thing, and didn't know just whatto do
with it. 1t worked in his brain all day,
producing irritation, and when he went
home in the evening he didn't get sleepy
as usual, but sat up and pretended to
read the latest news with the paper held
left handed before his face. The unusu-
al occurrence made his wife suspicious
and Wakeful, and as her John continued
to read on she just concluded she would
know what this unusual wakefulness
meant. She closed her eyes and slowly
resigned herself to morphetic influences,
at least her John thought 80 when she
began to breathe hard, and he was NOR
rally sure of it when her breathing ter
minated in an emphatic snore. He laid
down the paper and surveyed the esIeeper,
but perceiving nothing suspicious he
arose slowly, took up the lamp, quietly
opened the door and passed out; but as
he closed the door his wife rose up in
bed and glided door-ward, just in time
to catch glimpse of her John vanishing
into an adjoining sleeping apartment.
She hastened to the door, and tried the
knob. II would not turn, and she grew
desperate. Determined 10 unravel the
mystery, she hastened down stairs, and
going round the back way made her ap-
pearance on the second floor, Just in
time to intercept her John on his en-
trance into the third room on that side
of the house. ''Dear John" she ex-
claimed, ''What does it all mean9 Why
art thou wandering thusly9" John muf-
INJURED something inaudibly about find
ing "soft bed," but though he had
passed through two bed rooms before
being intercepted. It did not look a. If
he had tried either bed. Whether the
bed IN the third room would have es-
capped a trial, viii possibly never be
known, for Bessie Turner slumbered
profoundly, and did not even know Of
the cIandeshpe meeting Of the loving
couple.

Union Spr Entertainment.

This entertainment, under the auspi.
ces Of the Empire Band has more than
surprised and delighted every one who
has seen it the past two nights. The
thrilling play with SO many startling ef-
fects and varied associations will never
die in the memory of American citizens,
and seldom fails to receive the marked
attention and appreciation of deeplyin-
terested audience. The actors with Ma
jor Barton as the leading character, ac-
quilted themselves nobly-ladies and
gentlemen alike carrying out the cast
with more than success--in fact, so
mach 30 that, Il would indeed be invidi-
Gus were we to particularize any
individual impersontion. We should
not, however fail to remark that Mr.. w.
