Now and then one is reminded of the
late jim Fiske. Here, in an item which
we clip from late Herald, is one OF
these reminders:
Tommy Lynch, the Eighth avenue
oyster dealer, who. during the regime OF
James Fisk. Jr., controlled the gang OF
roughs in the employ of the Erie Rail
way, made his appearance at the Wash
ingtOn Place Police Court yesterday
morning in q state of intoxication and
began proceedings by insulting the court
officers. He was promptly arrested by
order of Sergeant Ahearn and arraigned
before Justice Kasmire. He announced
that he was Democrat and came down
to attend to the interests of q constitu-
ent. Then. Mr.. Lynch" said Justice
Kasmire, your constituents can get
you out of your difficulty. You are
committed to the Island for one month,
and fined $40 in addition. Lynch
braced himself against the railing and
said: "You bet they will" he was
taken down stairs and put in the prison
van

TRANSMISSION Of Flood.
From the London Telegraph, Sept. ISL

From tie london Telegraph, Sept. ISL
We dare say that Mr.. II. Irwin, med
ical student, of Manchester. has no idea
that he is peculiarly heroic PERSON.
Peradyenture, like many others OF bis
craft, be has had to work SO hard IN the
cause of charity that custom hath
made it unto him a property OF easl-
ness to be generous. Yet we cannot
help thinking that the following facts,
as narrated in the columns of q medical
contemporary, tell tale of simple devo-
ton to duty on the part OF Mr.. Irwin
such as lifts us high above that sphere
of sordid self-seeking which too often
bounds the horizon Of workaday life:
On the 22d of Jnly last, as We are in
formed, weakly, scrofnlous youth had
one of his limbs amputated 1t the Man
chester Iufrmary. Four days after
ward he was found bleeding to death,
and in such a desperate plight That, to
save him, Mr.. Hardie, the surgeon, re-
solved to try desperate remedy. known
as "transfusion"-that is, the act Of
transferring to the moribund patient 8
veins the warm blood of some living
man, Where was the blood to be had?
In old historic story We read of a gentle
queen who bravely sucked the deadly
poison from her royal husbands wound
in order that she might save his life.
But, as these days of ours are said to be
only the days Of small things, we dare
hardly expect to find even such reasona-
BILE heroism merely for the asking. Yet
when Mr.. Hardie announced his inten-
ton, one of the students, Mr.. H. Irwin,
with as generous spirit as that,of the
royal lady aforesaid, offered to supply
from his own veins the blood required
to revivify his pulseless fellow creature.
A pint of the vital fluid was drawn from
the veins of the kind hearted student.
Having been freed from fibrine, four
ounces of it were then slowly injected
by means of an extemporiZed apparatus
into the largest visible vein in the pa
TENTS ARM In a couple of hours the
dying lad recovered and recognized those
around him, and since then he has got
we'll enough to be transferred to the Con-
valescent Hospital at Cheadle.

GRA1N.-To have some idea OF the
amount of grain handled by the mer-
chants of E!ko one has only to look into
the middle depot, and view the pile be-
longing TO Messrs. Reinhart & Co. The
stack is about eighty feet long. thirty
five wide aud from sixteen to twenty in
height. 1t contains about II. 900 sacks,
or COO tons, and all is barley. Yester-
day in company with Mr.: Edoff we
looked over the pile and thought it a
pretty good sized one. but when he told
us that no. one-third of this firms grain
was there we began to think that they
owned some barley. The grain in the
depot is all insured, and valued at con-
siderable upwards Of $50, 900 in coin.

Washington special says: There nas
| been considerable discussion lately about
| the possible course OF the electoral votes
on the second Wednesday Of February
| next. in case the Presidential election
should turn upon the counting or re-
| lection of one State. The Democrats
! have said that if the election should
turn on the accepting of the South Caro-
! lima vote the House would object, and,
! under the Twenty second Joint Rule,
which provides that if either House per-
sist in objec:ing to receive the vote OF
either State it shall not be received, they
would prevent it being counted. and
| thus DE- feat the election of Hayes by the
! vote of that State. Several similar cases
have been the subject Of discussion here.
| 1t is a fact, however. though no: generally
! known. that thus far the Forty-fourth
| Congress have not adopted any joint
| rules. Each Congress enacts its Own
rules. The practice has been, on ad'
| iournment of each session, to pass res
olution adopting the rules of previous
Congresses, and generally such resolu
| ton passes as matter Of course. Last
session the House adopted the rules, but
! the Senate failed TO concur, and cons'd-
Grafton of the subject went over under
the objection. AS general result. the
session closed without adopting the 22d
rule, which leaves the Convention for
counting the electoral vote without
rules, except the constitutional pro-
vision Tor It's meeting and for the open
ing of the votes by the Presi lent Of the
Senate and counting the same.

The Dangers of Diving.

II appears that the people on board a
ship which sunk on the northeastern
coast of Ireland, says Frank Buckland
in his Log Book, !" had tried to escape,
having first filled their shirt-sleeves with
dollars; but in getting up the rocks
many of them had fallen back and met
with an untimely end, as the weight of
the dollars had kept their heads under
water, No one had ever disturbed the
wreck since the vessel went down, so
Wood, a famous diver, and his friends
set to work TO find out where she was.
They put on their diving dresses, and for
two or three days walked about to and
fro at the bottom of the sea, in about
forty feet of water, searching for the
treasure. This they did by clearing
away the weeds and turning over the
stones with crowbars, and feeling for the
dollars with their hands, as the water
was too thick to see. The wood part of
the wreck itself had nearly pcrished
through lapse of time and ravagcs of sea-
worms. After long and careful search
at last they came upon the dollars they
were mostly spread out among the
stones, but many had slipped down among
a heap OF iron ore which had formed the
ballast of the ship. Many of the dollars
were worn thin by the action of the
water.
When hunting among the wreck for
the dollars Mr.. Wood had some curious
underwater adventures. One of the
divers complained that he was annoyed
by a lobster and couldn't work. Mr..
Wood learned the whereabouts of the
lobster, and went down after him. He
soon discovered Mr. Lobster sitting under
a rock, looking as savage as lobster can
look. His feelers were pointed well for
ward, and he held out his two great claws
wide open in a threatening attitude.
Wood, knowing the habits of Holsters,
offered the fellow his bar, which he
Immediately nipped with his claws.
Then, watchinghis opportunity, he passed
his signal line over the Holsters tail,
made it fast, and signaled to the men
above "haul away" This they did, and
away flew Mr.. Lobster. flying up through
the water into the air above, with his
claws still expanded and as scared as a
lobster could he. A great conger eel
'ep Thiu tnt uiNtt Nisil. iit was an
immense fellow, and kept swimming
around Wood, but would not come near
him, Wood was afraid of his hand being
bitten, as conger cells bite is very bad.
He once knew diver whose finger was
seized by conger. The brute took all
the flesh clean of the mans finger How
ever, this conger kept swimming around
about Wood, so he took his clasp knife
out and tried to stab him; but the con
ger would not come near enough to be
knitted" 1t was long time before the
oonger would 60 away and even after
he had gone away Wood could not go on
working, because he was not sure that
the brute was really gone for good, and
he might have come out of some corner
at any minute and nipped his fingers.

thor Of "a Manual Of General Hjdory"
" Poth'coys Of he Hoiy Lond," c,o, etc.
There has long been great and univer
sally-felt want ola History of the United
States suitable for general use. This
want is now beng supplied by The Ma
tional Publishing Co, Of st. Louis, Mo,
who have issued handsome volume,
styled "The Centennial History of the
United States" by James ID. McCabe,
well-known historical writer. This
work will, undoubtedly, take rank as the
Standard History of the United States.
II is no dry mass of details-no bombas-
tic effort To inhame the national pride,
but is clear, vivid and brilliant nara
tive of the events of our history, from
the discovery of the American Continent
down to the present time.
We most heartily commend this book
toour readers. 1t gives a very interesting
account of the Indians of North America,
from the time of the coming OF the white
men. The voyage of Columbus, the ex-
plorations of the different nations of
Europe and the wanderings of the Span
iards in search of gold and immortal
youth, are told with graphic power.
Every step of our colonial history is
traced with patient fidelity, and the
sources Of those noble, and we trust, ch-
during institutions which have made our
country free and great, are shown with
remarkable clearness. The causes of
our great struggle for Independence are
told with logical force and ability un-
surpassed in any work of the day. Then
follows clear and succinct account of
the formation o! the Federal Constitu-
ton; the establishment of the Union
the course of affairs until the breaking
out of the Second War with England ;
and a full and comprehensive account OF
that War and its results. The events of
our career from the close of that contest
To the commencement of the Civil War,
follow in their order The history of the
Civil War is related with intense vigor
and with n strict fidelity to truth; and
the work closes with an account Of the
course of affairs since the end of that
great conflict. The author writes
throughout with the calmness and i'm.
partiality of a historian, and pleads the
cause of no party or section. lie states
facts, points out the lesson which they
teach, and appealing to neither passion
nor political feeling, trusts to the good
sense of his countrymen to sustain his
views. In order to render the work com
plete in every respect, the author has
added TO it an appendix, giving account
of the approaching international Ccntcn-
NAL Exhibition,
1t is comprised in one large, handsome
octave volume of 925 pages, and contains
4i2 fine engravings on steel and wood OF
historical pers0nages and scenes. The
price is so low that all can afford TO pur.
chase a copy, and each subscriber is pre-
sented with superb photographic en-.
