MARVELLOUS RESULTS

When the sprinkling ceased the tenn
perature of the body returned to the
normal heat in health, the fever disap-
peared and the patient fell into gentle
sleep, which still continues. At present
writing this first experiment in cold wa.
ter treatment is attracting widespread
attention among physicians, and should
the patient recover it is predicted that
the disease will be mastered. After the
sprinkling the patient was covered with
sheet.

YELLOW FEVER.
ICE WATER CURE.
COMPLETE RESTORATION OF
A DYING PATIENT.

New ORLEANS, August 27.-At the
Charity Society to-day DR. Samuel Chep-
pin tried an exceedingly interesting ex-
pertinent, which, if successful, will revo-
lutionize the treatment OF yellow fever,
and justly be regarded as one of the
most important medical discoveries Of
the age. The patient was in moribund
condition, having been sick with yellow
fever "a hours without attention, his on.
" medicine being Seidiitz powder
The temperature of his body indicated
i105 2-5 degrees. His pulse beat 100 a
minute and he presented the appearance
of one who would die in a very few min
utes. The patient was stripped naked,
placed upon one of DR.. Kidbes' fever
cots, which has network cover and in
dis rubber receptacle beneath, and sprin
kled with ice water from sprinkling can
two hours and quarter. At the expi-
ration OF that time the temperature of
the body was reduced to 58 degrees and
the pulse to so.

THE GREENBACKERs.

The new headquarters of the local or
ganizstron- of the National greenback La,
bor party in the third story Of Middleton's
building was as neat and cosy as new pine
benches and othsr things corresponding
could make it appear. About 35 persons
were present and Mr.. Price presided. The
evening was devoted to speaking Of the f.
nancial and labor question. Among those
who made addresses was Mr.. Liebrandt,
ex-candidate for the nomination ofaspirant
for the coronership on the temperance ticks
ct. He spoke to some length and repeated
the statement that there was no money but
more was wanted he said to get the wheels
Of, trade moving. In the sentence following
this Mr. Liebrandt objected to there being
plenty of money on grounds that the capi-
tslist got hold of it all and held on to it
until they could get a large percentage.
With this exception his speech was very
good and thoughtful.
On motion Of Mr.. Lewes the secretary
was instructed to correspond with General
Butler, Senator Thurman and Judge Kelly
and endeavor to secure the services of one
of them to speak at the ratification meet
ing to be held just after the state eonven'

THE FRIENDS OF TEMPERANCE.

A 'sTAUNCH AND FEARLESS TICKET MADE
OUT AT LAsT-soME LETTERS OF Ac-
b CEPTANoE-INwARDNE OF THINGS.
That the Temperance men can hold an
harmonious meeting when they lay certain
prejudiees aside has been demonstrated as
often as they have done SO, and quiet and
earnest meeting was IS usual the result of
such yielding to each other at the Old
Foundry last night. --
After devotional exercises Bro. Wells said
that he would read the uames OF. good and
true men as temperance candidates, who
had either been nominated at the conven-
zion or had since been appointed to fill the
vacancies of those who had declined the
nomination. The following are the names
as he read them:
For sherif-John White, Wilmington
Hd. .sga TE all H so m.i
For Coroner Nicholas Appleton, Will
mington I'D.
\ For State senators-Jas. G. johnson and
Jno. K. Babcock of Wilmington.
For Representatives:
Abraham Chandler, Mill Creek Hd.
e. P. Fl. Martin, Wilmington Hid. 1
Jas. s. Beason, Brandywine Hd.
Jas. M. Bracken, Christiana Hd,
Isaac Stats, Blackbird Hd.
Geo. w. Brinton, North Christiana Hd.
Jno. P. Griffith, South Christiana Hid.
! Mr.. Wells next produced an armful of
letters, the reaping of which he said was
next In order. He said his object in maxi
ing the contents of these letters public was
to give innocent people an idea of the true
inwardness of things. The first two of
these were letters of acceptance from Abrss
ham Chandler and E. P. Fl. Martin. The
rest of the letters were written by nominees
and those who had been solicited to act as
candidates, declining to take part in polit-
ical temperance movement. There were 15
Of them in all, and 1t was noticed that not
one of the writers expressed himself other
than as heart and hand with their brethren
10 the temperance movement and breathed
q spirit of white-washy condecension. The
names OF the gentlemen who wrote the let
tiers are: Amos E. Davidson, VIM. Dean,
W. B. Biggs, Joel Thompson, +. 8. Nc
Whorter, A. G.. Cox, Leander F. Riddle,
Richard Townsend, H. H. Appleton, Jos.
B. Moore, Daniel Green, Charles Tstmap3
Rev. 7. g. Martindale, Thos. Colvin and L.
V. Aster.
Mr.. Wells interspersed the reading of the
letters with comments whenever the excuse
of the writer seemed little thin. After
RI aiding Mr.. Deans letter he said, "He
don't want any temperance votes; he is
Joined to his Democratic idols."' The letter
of Joel Thompsod drew forth the remark
that more proof Of temperance was needed
in that case, while that of A. G.. Cox prom
ted the comment that he had no faith In
temperance.
This shows, said Mr.. Wells, as he folded
up the letters, what difficulty there is in
making up temperance ticket. Party men
are partizans and dare not rise above their
party's behests. Il .4ig Ill. alls-s5 ac'
The meeting wss extended by speeches
from Messrs. Fox, butcher and others.
