FrnitS in Diseases.

A writer in the Herald of Health makes
 a strong statement regarding the use of ripe fruits in diseases. He says: There is scarcely a disease to which the human family is heir but the sufferings there- from would be greatly relieved by the
 use of the very fruits which are now so strictly forbidden. Further, many of
 safe termination under the free use of fruits, because ofthe acids they contain. When our troops were fighting the Sem inoles in Florida many sick with diarrhea and dysentery cured those diseases by
 stealing from the hospitals into the fields
 and eating fruits, blackberries especially. Since our very pleasant and profitable
 excursion of last month, have sent several children suffering with cholera infantum and with dysentery to the peach orchard, with most gratifying re- suits, and where they could not be car ried to the orchards to pick and eat the | fruit fresh from the trees, have had the little sufferers fed with sound fruit with
 equally good results. In typhoid fever, in the treatment of which extraordinary
 care is enjoined as regards diet, fruits are
 not only highly grateful to the patient. buteven work very favorable results. A physician who had been sick some weeks
 with typhoid fever says his diarrhea
 was cured by peaches. He says: first ate the first half of a large peach, and feeling no ill effects, ate the other
 half, then one or two more, and the
 next day as many more as I desired.i D He adds: '' My bowels got better at
 once, and my recovery was rapid" Since
 our last meeting a typhoid fever patient
 who had been about three weeks sick,
 and though imploring, was allowed no diet but beef tea or milk punch, came
 under my care for a few days. I imme- diately ordered the free use of peaches
 and grapes and the diarrhea at once
 ceased, and at the end of five days, when relinquished the care of her, she was
 convalescent. My impression is the
 disease runs shorter and more favorable
 course under the free use of fruits than
 under the usual method of treatment,
 and 1 think the use of stimulants rarely required when fruits are freely used. In
 the treatment of scarlet fever and diph-
 theria our summer fruits and many of the vegetables are most useful, and to
 the best may be added some, or, in fact,
 any foreign fruits. There is scarcely 8
 disease accompanied with fever but
 grapes and bananas may be given freely to the patient.

Stay, sweet day, for thou art fair, Fair, and full, and calm; Crowned through all thy golden hours, With loves freshest, purest flowers Strong in faiths unshaken powers, Rich in hope's bright balm. Stay, what chance and change may v As you glide away; Now is all so glad and bright, Now we breathe in sure deiightl Now we smile in iate's despite. Stay with us, sweet day.

Little by Little.

One step and then another,
 And the longest walk is ended; One stitch and then another,
 And the largest rent is mended; One brick upon another,
 And the highest wall is made; One flake upon another,
 And the deepest snow is laid. So the little coral-workers,
 By their slow but constant motion, Have built those pretty islands In the distant dark-blue ocean; And the noblest undertakings
 Mans wisdom has conceived, By oft-repeated efforts
 Have been patiently achieved. Then do not look disheartened
 Der the work you have to do, And say that such a mighty task
 You never can get through; But just endeavor day by day
 Another point to gain, And soon the mountain which you feared Will prove to be plain. Rome was not builded in day." The ancient proverb teaches; And nature, by her trees and flowers, The same sweet sermon breaches. Think not of far-of duties,
 But of duties which are near; And having once begun to work, Resolve to persevere.

Summer Pruning of Grapevines.

The pruning of grapevines in the summer. says an exchange, is rarely at tempted except by professional growers. But it is very useful practice. It keeps the vine within bounds, prevents much useless and wasteful growth which would otherwise divert the strength of the plant from the formation of fruit, and greatly improves the quality of the grapes. Therc is no secret about the method. With a sharp pruning-knife (which has a curved blade) slash off by quick stroke the ends of the shoots which are intended to bear fruit, leaving those intended to make wood to grow on If fine fruit is desired, only one bunch should be left on each spur or shoot branch: if abundance is desired more than quality, two clusters may be left. The ends of the shoots may be pinched off with the finger and thumb just as easily.

CONKLING,S DAUGHTER.

The social sensation at Utica, n.
Y, Wednesday, was the marriage OF
Miss Bessie COnkling and Mr.. VIM.
Oakman. The bride is twenty-five
years of age. tall, handsome blonde,
and highly educated. The groom is
Superintendent of the side branch of
the Delaware, Lackawanna d West
ern railroad. The marriage was sol
emnized bv Rev. DR. A. B. Goodrich,
Rector of Calvary Church.
Senator Conkling has not regarded
Miss Bessie's suitor with favor, but op-
posed the scheme with characteristic
determination. The feeling against
the Senator in Utica because of his
attitude in this matter is not confined
to political circles. 1t is universal.
Miss Bessie is a queenly girl, whose
many graces ofcharacter have endeared
her to all hearts. The man to whom
she has given her love is of unimpeach-
able morals, polished in manner, but
not wealthy. He was connected with
the Paterson On. j. Locomotive
Works and achieved a reputation as a
thorough mechanic of The higher order.
He has been drilled in the classics,
speaks French and German, and has
travelled abroad. His habits are tenn
perate, his head is clear, prospects good,
and he is backed by Sam Sloan, Pres
ident of the Delaware, Lackawanna &
Western railroad, and a man of great
wealth. He has an income greatly
in excess of that enjoyed by Roscoe
Conkling when the now lordly Senator
was a humble suitor for the hand of
his wife, who is HOratio Seymours
sister.
At the reception following the mar
riage no intimation was given that Mr..
COnkling had in any manner recog-
nized the occasion. Indeed, it is as.
serted, that he had never seen Mr..
Oakman. When questioned as to Sen
ator's opposition to the wedding, Mrs.
Conkling is reported to have said:
Zone public man in a family is
enough"

the Montgomery & Eufaula rail-

on Thursday of last week, for the
benefit of the bondholders, by order
of the United States Court. 1t was
bought by William NJ. Wadley, for
50, 10000 cash. The road was sold
under foreclosure for the benefit of
the bondholders, the Louisville &
Nashville & Great Southern railroad
owning by purchase nine-tenths of
the bonds. After it reached its full
value and an amount equal to the cost
of new road, President Standiford
retired from the contest, content with
a profit of 100000 on his investment
and the assurance tha: the purchasers
would be as eager to receive the busi-
ness of his road and furnish as ade-
quate and fair rates as he could lesire.

No Pay, No Church.

A prominent pastor of this city,
whose practical preaching will at once
"spot" him as well as if his name were
called, believes that an essential part
of Christianity is to contribute to the
church. This has been illustrated
several times, but more particularly
in a recent occurrence which has now
about settled into monotony. A
member of the church, also repeated
ly solicited to contribute, refused,
and the pastors opinion that such
a man should not be a churchman be-
ing known, the member, to avoid the
possibility of expulsion, determined
to get a letter. The pastor wrote the
letter, that he had been a member of
his church for some months, but had
contributed nothing. The man in
quired if that was the best he Che
pastor, could do for him, and received
an affirmative answer. The church
man then contributed $50, and asked
the pastor to word the letter different
ly. The reverend gentleman took
the letter and endorsed on the back of
it the Endorsement, "He is improv>
ing. He has given $40" The men,
Der concluded not to risk his admission
into another church on such fimsy
grounds, and still remains under the
droppings of his original sanctuary.-

Some of the country doctors in
England are employing bicycles and
tricycles instead of horses, as a means
of locomotion. The bicycles used by
them are made of iron, the rim of the
wheels covered with rubber, and they
can move over tolerably rough roads
and up quite steep grades, making
from eight to ten miles or more an
hour. There are many places in this
country where doctor could advan-
tageously keep this vehicle instead of
a horse, especially in view of the hard
times and the competition among the
disciples of Esculapius.

BARRING OUT YELLOW FE-
VER.
The Quarantine and Sanitary
Measures to be Enforced at
New Orleans.
Memphis Avalanche.

Memphis Avalanche.
From DR.. Chopin an Avalanche
reporter learned the following interes
ting particulars, yesterday, in regard
to the quarantine and sanitary meas,
ures that are in progress at New
Orleans: In accordance with a procla-
nation issued by Gov. Nichols on the
10th of April, which went into effect
yesterday, a quarantine station has
been established at a point seventy
miles below the city. Vessels coming
from ports where yellow fever usually
prevails-that is from all ports on the
Outlying to thesouth of Texas and all
West India, Bahama and Bay Islands
are subject to a quarantine of twen-
ty days. rhe regulation includes the
vessel itself, the cargo, crew, officers
and passengers.
When a vessel has arrived from any
port declared to be infected, she is
towed up from the mouth of the river
to the quarantine station, and dis
charges her cargo at the Government
wharf. The cargo is then placed in
the Government warehouse tumigated
and disinfected. The vessel after dis
charging her cargo will also be fumigs-
ted and disinfected, and will then be al
lowed to proceed out to sea, without
touching the port of New Orleans at
all.
When clear from quarantine sta
tions the vessel will be allowed the
privilege of taking on her outward
cargo, under the following regulations:
The outward cargo will be placed
upon a barge at the city and towed
down to a point near the quarantine
station, to be designated hereafter.
The barge will there be anchored in
the middle of the river, and all per-
sons on board of her removed. Then,
after being thoroughly disinfected, the
vessel will be allowed to come along
side and take on her cargo with her
own crew and depart. The barge will
then be disinfected before being al
lowed to return to the city.
In the event of any cases of fever
breaking out in the city from germs
alternating from the last epidemic,
such case will be kept under strict sur
veillance and ingress to an egress from
the house where such case occurs will
be prevented by a corGon of sanitary
police so as to prevent the spread of
the disease.

"Bring i'm Another Horse y,

Hayes. it seems, will have another
opportunity to apply the veto power.
At meeting of the Democratic Joint
Caucus Committee, the passage of the
Army Appropriation bill, with the
sixth section changed so as to refer
only to officers of the army and navy
and not to the United States "civil"
officers, was recommended, thus obvi-
ating the principal objection raised by
the President against its approval.
The argument by which this recon-
mendation will be supported is. in
brief, that the President vetoed the
bill because of its alleged abridgement
of the powers of civil officers /; that in
reality this was not the intention and
would not be the effect of the bill as
heretofore passed, and that the Presi-
dent having, in the opinion of the
Democratic party, evaded the main
issue, he should now be given an OPP
po"tunity to pass upon a bill which
shall present to him the sole question
whether or not the army or any por-
tion of it should be used tc keep the
peace at the polls.
