'sockery of Justice and trifling with

by wise but resolute action.
If the Republicans of the North do
not meet together promptly and pro-
test against the conspiracy, which, IT
successful, must result either in u sub.
version Of our institutions or in civil
commotion, it may advance with such
rapid strides as TO prevent the posi-.

not in position to act with the same
effect II they step forward even with

and then no power will be strong
enough TO efface the distinction. or to
calm the partiali,cs which enter into
merely partisan action.
Now is tho propitious moment for

Cure for Hydrophobia.

Elecampane root, boiled in sweet
milk, is cure for mad-dog bitesl 80
says we'll authenticated statement
going the rounds of the papers. 1t
seems that an old German in Chester
county, Pennsy lvania, made the dis4
covery long ago, and not much faith
was had in his cure; but time and
circumstances have shown that the
old German was abont right, if the
sta'ements are to be relied on.
Elecampane Gnula helenium) is a
shrub introduced into America from
Europe, but is now common, grow
ing wild in many parts of tho Northa
ern States. 1t will grow as we'll in
the Southern States, and is easily
propagated. 1t has an aromatic
odor when dried, somewhat like that
of camphor, and when chewed, has
o warm and bitter taste; water and
alcohol extract its peculiar properties.
The powdered root ia used in medi-
cine as tonic or stimulant. 1t is
used Cor chronic discases of the
lungs.
The statement says it was univer~
sally believed that the old German
never failed to prevent or cure hy~
drophobia. In one case the spasms
had begun before the first dose was
given.
"The medical properties of ele~.
campane are very powerful. MilE
itself is specific for many poisons
and while the medical faculty know
no cure tor this terrible disease, W.
