Resumed Specie Payment.

A St. Louis dispatch to the Chicago
Times is as follows: Specie resumption
was reached in the family Of Mrs. Nc
Cam, at No. 1884 O'Fallon' Street, in a
remarkable manner to-day. The
woman had little daughter, q bright
healthy looking child of 8 years, named
Emma. Several days ago Mrs. McCann
missed. quite a package Of small cur
rency from bureau drawer and all
search proved unavailing. On Friday
the child was taken sick and vomited up
a dime. Little was thought of it until
she had another attack and produced
eight dimes in quick succession. They
were somewhat changed in color from
the action of the gastric juice After
couple of hours rest the little girl went
to work again and delivered her stom-
ach of four dimes and a nickle. The
latter had been eaten half away and
looked as if corroded by strong acid.
Some hours after the girl had fourth
attack and laid before the astonished
physicians four more dimes, two glass
beads and glove button. In all the
child raised from her stomach nearly 81.
The story seems almost Incredible, but
1T is well vouched for. The mother
SAYS she has known OF the child swallow
ing pins often without experiencing any
| evil effects. but this is the first time she
ever knew Emma to make a money! bag
OF her bowels. AsIAf

Memphis, sept. .2S.-The weather is warm
and sultry this morning, and showers Of
rain have fallen at intervals. The report
of the board of health last night, which

incomplete, owing to the failure of one of
the .undertak to report. Fully a
dozen more were inferred who died

Memphis, will not be included in the total
number of deaths, as the city ordinances
make it imperative on the board of health
officials to report only those who die in the
city. Since last night, among those who
have died are Geo. L. Biggs, nurse from
Chicago; DIR. c. Roberts, of Sulphur, Ky,
who was dismissed as Howard physician
for drunkenness; Geo. Barber, nurse from
Washington City; Jacob Martos; son Of
L. Kruffman. DR.. p. Tucker, volunteer

yellow fever sufferers, have issued strong
appeal for clothing. The members speak
with great carnestness Of the sufferings
the survivors throughout the infected dis

gin to fall. They appeal to the clergy to
urge upon their congregations from the pull
pit that during the coming week they select
and thoroughly prepare for use all their
wearing apparel of all descriptions, espe-
cially shoes and stockings, for men, women
and children, doing them up in three sepa-
rate bundles, with labels, stating the con.
tents of each, and all surplus bed clothing,
mattresses, towels, etc.
