The following is an extract from letter
dated July 81, 1877, to the discoverer of
Bethesda Water. The writer is the Rev.
T. B. Fuller, d. D., d. G. L., Rector of ST.
Gregory's Church, Toronto, Archdeacon of
of Niagara, ETC., etc. Tho writer, at the
age of 60 years was victim of iSdcchGrine
Diabetes. His physician said Ito use DR..
FulleIs words) "he could do no more for
me than he had done that my disease was
incurable, and that l must lie down and
die" We should state here, en- pGreBthe-
sis, that our townsman, Joseph Fleming,
Esq, is the sole and only authorized agent
for this wonderful water for this State, as
we'll as for Ohio and West Virginia.l To
return to DR.. Fuller: "In four days." he
writes, "after taking the Water, Iobtained
relief, and since that time have taken no
medicine, consulted no medical man, and
presume, if could give myself reasonable
rest, would be quite well.'
Such testimony, from such a source,
should indeed have convincing weight.

A Life Struggle With a Maniac.


OnSaturday last rather tinely-drcssed
and wcIl-appcarng man landed at Fair
Point Chautauqua Lake, and engaged
board for fortnight at the Palace
Hotel. There was nothing unnatural in
his appearance, nor did j; seem at all
remarkable when he attended church on
Sunday morning, and bowed in fervent
prayer near the altar. People noticing,
his conspicuous position, looked with
admiring wonder upon the man who,
regardless of the scrutinizng vision Of
the whole congregation, manifested his
religious zeal in the most emphatic
manner. On Monday morning the
stranger strollcd out near the lake, and
there met Mr.. George Irwin, some
what noted duck-huntcr, who had just
come in with his dog and gun. The
stranger aiIably greeted Mr.. Irwin, and
asked to be allowed to examine his gun.
Mr.. Irwin unsuspcctingy handed over
the weapon, when the stranger carefully
examined it, then cooked it, and, hold
ing it toward Mr.. Irwin, asked him how
he would rather dic-would he prefer
being drowned to being shot? Mr..
Irwin, regarding the question AS a joke,
replied that if it was necessary for him
to die right there and then, he preferred
taking turn in the water. 1t was then
that the strangers eyes glarcd with ma
niacal frenzy, and dashing the gun upon
the sand, he grappIcd with the now ter
riticd Irwin. The struggle was II dcs-
pcratc one. The maniac was Il power
full man, and with IN iron grip dragged
the sportsman to the waters edge, when
the struggle for life and death became
even more desperate. Finally they both
fell into the water and while tlOunder-
ing there, some men who stood ut short
distance ran to the rescue, and were
scarcely able to release the victim from
the maniac's clutch. His clothes were
nearly all torn from his body, and he
was terribly bruised by the brief but
fearful encounter. Just about this time
Il small steamer came up to the dock. 1t
required four strong men to put the ma
Mac on board. lie was taken to Mays
vile and lodged in Jail. He persistently
refused to give his name, declaring rs a
reason for his conduct that it was nee
essary to sacrifice rome life to the conse-
Grafton of the Sunday-school ground at
that place; that he had been chosen as
the instrument of death lie seemed to
talk sanely about the matter, and re-
garded Mr.. Irwin AS an unappreciative
man, because, rs he said, it was clearly
in his power to shoot Irwin upon the
spot, whereas he had given him his choice
of death, and when about to yield his
preference four worldly friends appeared
upon the scene and intcrfcrcd. The
affair created considerable excitement at
Fair Point, and is the one topic of con-
versatiOn in that vicinity.

Mrs. Schrand stated that she had read
the accounts of her death in the papers
of the preceding day, and had come to
town to see why things were thus, The
inquest was at once brought to ter
mination, and new one ordered for the
next day, in the hope that the body may
this time be properly identified. The

Sherldan's Famous Horse.

The famous horse that took Sheridan
TO Winchester on that famous ride, and
whose death is reported, was jet black,
with white star forehead, was sixteen
and one.half hands high, and was very
proud spirited and active, He saw
ninety engagements during the war, and
was given to Sheridan by Captain
Campbell, Of the Second Michigan, in
1862, He WAS very brave, and it is said
that with one exception he never tailed
toward the enemy, and that was when
cannon ball passing under his belly
frightened him. The Chicago Times says
that Sheridan told its representative
that when hurrying to Winchester he
had ridden the horse at full gallop, at
times breaking into a run, Two staff
officers, Generals Forsyth and O'Keefe,
and the escort of twenty cavalrymen,
rode with him, but the horse "Win.
chester" showed more spirit and " bot
tom" than any Of the other animals.
The General said that he had not been
upon "Winchester's" back since the
war closed. The skin of old " Winches-
ter" is to be prepared and preserved in
the best art Of the taxidermst, under
direction Of Professor Ward.

Power nr II Sweet Voice.

There is no power Of love 50 hard to
get and keep AS II kind voice. A kind
hand is deaf and dumb. II may be
rough in flesh and blood, yet do the
work of a soft heart, and do il with n
soft tOuch. But there is no one thing
that love so much needs asa sweet voice
to tell what it means and feels; and it
is hard too get and keep it in the right
tone. One must start III youth, and be
on the watch, night and day, at work
and play, to get and keep voice that
shall speak at all times the thoughts Of
n kind heart. But this is the time when
II sharp voice is most apt to be got. You
often hear boys and girls say words at
play with a quick, sharp tone, rs if it
were the snap of Il whip. When one Of
them gets ycxed you will hear voice
that sounds as if it was made up of Il
Snarl, whine and II bark. Such a
voice often speaks worse than the heart
feels. IL shows more ill-will in the tone
than in the words 1t il often in mirth
that one gets voice or n tone that is
sharp, and sticks to him through life,
and stirs up iIl-will and grief, and falls
like drop Of gall on the sweet joys AZ
home. such as these get a sharp home
voice for use, and keep their best voice
for those they meet elsewhere, just as
they would save their best cakes and
pies for guests, and all their sour food
for their own board. would say to all
boys and girls: " Use your guest voice
at home. Watch it day by day as a
pearl of great price, for it will be worth
more to you in days to come than the
hest pearl hid in the sea. A kind voice
is a joy like lark's song to hearth
and home. 1t is to the heart what light
Is to the eye. 1t is a light that sings AS
well IA shines. Train it to sweet tones
now, and it will keep in tune through
