the salt killed the mules. he said
that it probably had something to do
with it, but thought if the mules had
not the slobbers it would not have
affected them. He stated that the
other stock in the pasture had free
access to the same salt and that it
did not affect any of them. He said
that at first he took some Of the salt
with n view of having it analysed.
thinking that there must have been
some poison in the salt. but learning
that the slobbers occasionally result
ed in death, he he felt satisfied that
there was no poison in the salt, and
hence did not have it Analysed. We
also had a conversation with DR..
Lewis, of that place, on the same
subject. and his opinions concurred
with those expressed by Mr.. Lenoir."
The above is taken from the Knox
vile Chronicle of the 25th inst, and
leaves but one impression upon our
mind, and that is that the salt eaten
by those mules caused their death
That the slobbers killed them, to say
the least Of it, is quite improbable.
That one mule might have died from
the effect of slobbers is not impossible,
but is highly improbable but to say
that seUen mules died of slobbers. is
more than sensible farmers or stock
raisers can be made to believe. The
truth is this: KanaWha salt is full of
poison dissolved in water, the wa
ter is quite greenish. containing more
or less arsenic, which in this case
was taken IN sufficient quantities to
produce death. If death had been
produced by slobbers it would not
have taken place so suddenly, as
slobbers is nothing more nor less
than the irritation of the salivary
glands which is produced by some
thing after the nature Of mercury in
the vegetation that is eaten by them.
Arsenic acts immediately upon the
brain, and if taken in sufficient guam
tity produces speedy death.
The Lenoir Brothers were able to
lose their mules but poor man who
has but perhaps two mules or horses,
is not able to lose them. We under
stand that large quantity Of this
Kanawha salt has recently been ship
ped into East Tennessee, and sold
cheap. We are also Informed that
the Lenoir Brothers have great
deal Of it on hands for sale, and this
may account for the unreasonable
and unheard Of conclusion that the
slobbers were in any way the cause
of the death of the seven mules re-
ferred to above.
To country merchants aud farm
ers generally we would say, buy Vir-
ginia salt, manufactured at Saltville,
and you will get a good pure article,
both safe and healthy. 1t will afford
relief to your soldering mules, in
stead of killing them. Beware of
Kanawha salt. = MayyUiHe Iladeper-

TILDEN AND HENDRICKS.

Letter is Received.
" No Excuse for a Third Party

Comments of the New York
Papers,

CINCINNATI August 5.-The En-
q2tirer is enthusiastic in praise of
! Tilden's letter. 1t says: 1--WE had
! feared that he would not concede so
much to the sentiment of the great
West. to the people of the country,
as did the ST. Louis platform, but he
goes further, does more. If any
Western Democrat had been nomi-
mated for the Presidency it is doubt
ful if he would have put into his let
ter of acceptance such pronounced
professions in favor of Western be-
lief concerning the currency.
We do not think that any Western
candidate who could have been noms
mated would have been, in his ac~
cepting letter, so brave in the de-

pressions of Hendricks are stronger
on the subject, being more intelligi

however, is that If Tilden is elected

The Effect of Kanawha Salt on
Stock.

Having learned that Lenoir Broth
ers lost, a few weeks ago, in one day,
seven fine mules, Chronicle reporter
proceeded to Lenoir's Station yes
terday, and interviewed Mr.. VIM.
Lenoir on the subject, with view Of
giving our farmers the experience of
such thorough, wide-awake men as
the Eenoir Brothers are we'll known
to be.
''The mules, we learn from him,
were affected with the slobbers, but
were otherwise perfectly sound and
hearty. They had not had any salt
for nearly a week, and ON last Sat-
urday two weeks ago they were
turned into a pasture with other
stock-several horses cattle and
swine and then were given boun-
tiful supply Of Kanawha salt, more
than they would really eat. as some
Of it was afterward taken up again.
The next day about noon six of
these mules were found dead, and
the other one died before night. In

From general indications the dead
lock between the House and Senate
upon the appropriation bills may con-
tinue some weeks. The speech of
Wood of New York, yesterday, if an
indication Of the sentiment Of the ma-
jority in the House, shows stubborn
and uncompromising determination
TO insist upon the reductions in the
appropriation for the public service.
The House has refused to concur in
the legislative, executive and judicial
appropriation bin and a committee of
Conference has been appointed; but
it is not generally believed that any
compromise can be effected and like
barren results are predicted relative to
the conference of the committee on the
diplomatic and consular appropria-
tion bill. Two silver bills have passed
the House issuing some millions of
silver which is designed to take the
place of fractional currency. The
army bill is still pending before the
House. The Senate to day will listen
to the pleadings in the Relknap case,
and then adjourn until Monday; but
no business of Importance is likely to
be transacted until the nomination at
st. Louis is made. Mr.. Kerr has
been exonerated from the charges
made aga lust him sy Harvey, aud, II
is said, is recovering from the alarm
ing prostration which followed his
examination before the committee.
Mr.. Blaine has so far recovered as to
be able to ride out. His physicians
have ceased their visits assuring him
that only little time is necessary to
his complete restoration. Mr.. Hooker
of Mississippi yesterday INDUCED in n
speech characteristic ofSouthesn Dem
ocrats in which he stigmatized all
white Republicans South as carpet
baggers" swindlers etc. Mr.. Lynch,
colored member from the same State,
reminded him that the Democrats
always welcomed all white deserters
from the Republican party, with all
their sins, with open arms to places of
honor and trust, as in the case of ex-
Governor Yarmouth of Louisiana.

OUR NOMINEES.

According to previous announce
ment, the National Republican Con.
vention met in Cincinnati on Wednes.
day aast, and, on Friday, on the sew
enth ballot, Rutherford B. HAYES, of
Ohio was nominated for the Office of
President of the United States. Will
lam A. Wheeler, of New York, wa.
nominated for Vice President on the
first ballot.
The sentiment in this section, and
we may say, throughout the State was
in favor of Blaine for President, and
the Pennsylvania delegation has the
credit of securing bis defeat, by weak
ly allowing themselves to be handled
by Don Cameron. Those who thus
went against public sentiment will be
remembered in the future.
Governor Hayes, although his nom
ination was the result of combina-
ton gotten up for the express purpose
of defeating Blaine, is man in every
way fitted for the position for which
he has been nominated, and will un-
doubtedly make as good President
as ever occupied the chair. His rec
ord is spotless, and cannot be success
fully assailed. AS lawyer, as sol
dier, as a statesman his career has been
successful and honorable. His popu-
larity at home is attested in the fact
that he has beaten successfully the
three most prominent Democrats in
in his State for Governor, viz; PEN
dleton, Thurman and Allen.
Mr.. Hayes is about ffty-four years
of age; graduated at the Harvard
Law School, and was a successful law
yer until the break out. He entered
the army as Major, and for bravery
on the field, was promoted step by
step until for gallant aud meritorious
service at Winchester, Fisher Hill and
Cedar Creek, he was commissioned
Brig, general He served two terms
in Congress, with credit to himselfand
was noted for sound Judgment and
consistent action. In 1867 he defeat
ed Thurman for Governor in 1869
he "got away" with Pendleton, and
last fall sent William Allen up Salt
River, each for the same office. He
has never been defeated, and the prob.
abilities are that he never will be.
