QUENCHING THfEsT.-N early hum
dr-d years ago, says Haits Journal, DR..
Lind suggested to Captain Kennedy,
that thirst might be quenched at sea, by
dipping the clothing in salt water, and
putting It on without wringing. Subse
Quenty the Captain, on being cast away
had an opportunity Of making the exper-
ilnent. With great difficulty, he sue
ceeded in persuading part OF the men to
follow his example, and they all survived
while the four who refused and drank salt
water, became delirious, and died. In
addition to putting on the clothes while
wet, night and morning, they may be
wetted while on, two or three times dur
ing the day. Captain Kennedy goes on
TO say, latter these operations, we uni
formly found that the violent drought
went off, and the parched tongue wa:
cured in a few minutes after bathing and
washing our clothes, while we found our.
selves as much refreshed, as if we had re-
ceived some actual nourshment."
The bare possibility Of the truth of Tho
statement, makes it humanity for any
paper to give it a wide publicity, since
there are few readers in any hundred
who may not go to sea and be shipwrecle
ell.
We personally know that wading in
water quenches thirst, aud very fep
r'hders can remember being thirsty
while bathing at the sea shore, or while
swimming in our rivers. When the
fearful horrors Of dying with thirst arc
remembered, and the more fearful mad
ness which is the certain result ofdrnk
ing sen water to alay thirst, it is Ger
tainly well to encourage individual ex
pertinent in this direction, and sofici
an authenticated report Of the same.

News comes from Indiana TINT Hon.
Dan Voorhees, hos received the Demo-
CRITIC nomination for United States Sem
ator by ncclamRtion. Tho seat lie is
after is thnt now held by o. P. Morton,
md if that gentleman succeeds in re-
tanning it beyond the present term, ho
will find it necessary to display oven
more cunning generulship than that he
brought in plny during the lnte Presi-
dental contest. In Voorhees, he will
find foemnn worthy of hie steel, and
Notwithstanding all thoeraft and gon-
eral political trickcry in tho mnnipulu-
tion of which tho iIlustrious "Sitting
Bull" stands pre-eminent, the chances
aro that he will como out of this next
fight second best. ...-
Though tho final struggle is yenr
hence, the work of organizing and the
mnrShnling Of forces has already begun,
SO TINT the Indiana Sonntor, from this
limo forward will find at home business
quite as interesting rs anything in tho
Southern States, or even in Oregon.

The illustrious carpet-bagger, South
Carolina Chamberlain, is reported as
huving uncorEcd one Of the Yials OF his
pent up wrath nt Woodstock, Conn.,, in
Fourth Of July Grafton. That tho cx-
Governor should entertain Il bitterness
towards the President. is not source
Of surprise, for in the light Of past po-
litical preferments, the tenacity with
which that individual held Oh to what
in nowiso belonged to him, should
havo insured him unqualified Federal
support, but tho treachery thEt would
inycigle the citizens OF Woodstock, or
any other Christian community into o
patriotic asscinblnge. and then deliber-
ntely insult them by delivering pnrti-
san political speech for the sole pur-
pose Of splitting his personal spite upon
the President, wus certainly m exhibi-
ton Of towering egotIsm worthy OF the
representative curpet-bngger. Tho re-
buke the Ex-Governor received nt the
conclusion of his yindictiye harnngue,
was just what he deserved. aud Clearly
indicated TO the baflied dcmngoguc, that
il he hoped 10 manufacture capital to
bolster his rotten cause by attacking the
righteous course pursued by President
Hayes. he was previously mistaken, for
when the President Of the Convention,
Mr. Waite, assorted his abiding faith i'll
the integrity OF tho President and the
wisdom Of his course, his relnnrks were
heartily endorsed by cheers. mud when
Rev. Mr.. Stoddard of Mnss. pro-
posed thu. those who approved OF tho
Presidents course should make it man
ifest. hearty response was quickly
given.
As Democrat we were opposed to
Mr.. Hayes election 10 the Presidency.
Though pleased with his fair promises,
We did not believe in his will OF ability
10 perform, md have thus far been very
agrceGb!y disappointed.
Whatever the abuse beaped upon him
by the radicals and sorehends. or the
dolcful prophecies uf chronic croakers.
the fact that under 8Ir. Hnyes' admins
tratiou order hns been brought out OF
chaos. and peace restored to n country
long racked by interminable dis
sentions, stands boldly apparent.
This was what the great mass OF the
people Of America desired. regardless Of
The thwhrted ambitions Of rrstleDs ngi-
tators. and for this great service the
people have voluntarily accorded him
their hearty confidence aud support,
and We frankly adEait that the unflincll-
ing resolution OH tho part Of Mr.. Hayes
to uptoot corruption in Office wherever
found, md in 30 fur as his power cx-
tends TO wipo out sectional lires md
to establish National ones, hns drawn
us into tho vast army Of those who re-
gnrd him Al un excellent President, not.
withslnuding the cloud which SUI
rounded the question Of his election.
