The Devils Cache

It IS pleasing 10 learn that the liii- gation over the Devils Cache mine, which threatened for time 10 lie the property up fer an indefinite period, has erded. This most favorable in dication for great mine lies on the western slope of the Santa Rita Noun tains, near Inc Agua Caiiente, and the prospecting done on il has re- veSled some very high-grade ore. Some time ago it was bonded by Col. J. M. McArthur, of the Pajarito Com pany, for $45, 900, under what is known as working bond. Measures w,re st once taken to develop the property on very extensive scale, when some questions of difference arose between the parties to the bond, which ended in a cessation of the work and lawsuit. The latter was yesterday compromised, Col McAr- thur receiving a deed for e-half the property, and the work of following the original plan of development will al once proceed. This Is good news, as the mine is likely to iR the near future take most favorable rank smOng our bullion prodcers.

Hope that may be excused for Civ
ing my experience during the past
month with sulphur in the treatment of
diphtheria of an unquestionably malig-
pant type. had treated quite num-
Der of patients, dangerously ill, success
fully; but case occurringin an infant,
where the membrane had extended into
the larnyx and produced membranous
Group, with impending asphyxia, was
induced to make trial of sulphur, and
the child was saved, in my opinion, by
burning sulphur in the room so as to
produce strong and slightly suffocat-
ing smell, and continuing it so as to
maintain an odor of sulphur constantly
in the room. Further, in a certain local
ity, where have occurred fifteen cases,
ten of which were attended by 9TH
er physicians, and seven out of the ten
dying, l took charge of five cases, of
which every one got well. In the treat
ment of these five cases | did not omit
any of my usual remedies, but used the
sulphur as an adjunct. | gave small
doses of it frequently, and also had a
little burned in the room every two or
three hours, so as to maintain a smell
of sulphur constantly in the room. l
think the sulphur aided in saving the
lives of my five patients. Some may
claim that my patients were not so sick
as the others. claim that they were,
and that they had all the characters
tics of very malignant diphtheria, one
of them being in family where anoth-
er child had just died. In fact, it was
said by the friends of the families, who
were constantly visiting back and forth,
that the five / attended were attacked
the most severely. Certainly the dis
ease was of malignant type, or seven
out of fifteen would not have died.
The object of the administration of
sulphur is that it may, by being alb
sorbed into the blood via the stomach
and lungs, destroy the confervoid
growth, and not only induce removals
of exudations already existing but pre-
vent new deposits.
hope that others may be induced to
make trials of it judiciously, but not to
the exclusion of other tried remedies.

The Last Young Man from the Country.

The young man from the country
who traded off his watch and chain for
a horse yesterday, got lesson that may
be of service hereafter to himself, how
ever doubtful it may be that it will
help any one else. Even old men from
the town rarely profit by the experience
of others, and why then should we ex-
pect such wisdom in young men from
the countryP
This particular young man was ac-
costed, strange to say, by plausible
stranger. There was going to be a
horse sale of an extraordinary charac-
ter, and there was going to be sold a
certain marvellous horse. The plausi-
BILE stranger was dealer, he said.
Were he to bid for this choice bit of
horsefesh, the auctioneer would surely
"1un up the price on him." A happy
expedient had suggested itself. The
young man from the country should go
in and bid for the horse. unsupported,
he might buy it for a song. Hence
would accrue much profit and joy to
both parties concerned. The young
man listened with an ear of desire; but
although his spirit was willing his
pocket was weak. In brief, he had no
money at all except enough to buy an
oyster stew and to take him home to
Sullivan County. But, as was pointed
out by his ingenious companion, he had
good watch and chain. He could
easily explain to the auctioneer that he
had to go down town to get his money
and could hand in his watch and chain
meanwhile as security. AS soon as he
got the horse, for which he was to bid
to the extent of $3.50, he was to lead
him round the corner-a little way from
Lexington avenue and Twenty-second
street-where his friend would meet
and give him 5000. To return and get
his watch and chain and clear $50 by
the operation would be but the work of
a moment, and yet very nice morn
ing's operation.
Much charmed at entering line of
business so easy and so profitable, the
young man from the country promptly
agreed. All went swimmingly. The
auctioneer was affability itself. In due
time the coveted steed was brought in
to the arena, like the wild horse of Ma
zeppa, struggling with the grooms and
displaying q noble fire and agility.

What Is Householder or {" Head
Of a Family?

In Calhoun against Williams, Su-
preme Court of Appeals of Virginia, it
was held that a single man, who keeps
house and has no other person living
with him than servants or employees, is
not the "head of a family" or &C house
HOLDER within the meaning of the
statutes creating exemptions. The rela-
ton of master and servant does not
constitute a family. The court said:
"The term householder or head of
family was evidently employed by
the trainers of the Constitution in the
sense in which it is commonly used.
The term household literally means
the inmates of the house, ne family,
those whom the house holds. The
term is frequently used in the sacred
Scriptures, especially in the epistles Of
the New Testament, which, in the En-
glish version, is the best standard of
the meaning of our language in COM
mon use. And the term household
is so used in common parlance, and in
friendly correspondence by letter. What
is more usual than to send messages of
regard or affection by the writer to the
household? Such messages are uni
versally meant for the family-the in
mates of the house. And if they con-
stitute the household, who can be
meant by the g householder but the
head of familyP' But while we hold
that by the householder is meant the
head of family, we do not mean to
say that every head of family must be
necessarily householder. The family
may consist of wife and children, or
of other persons who may stand in a
state of dependence in the family rela-
ton. Or it may consist of persons
standing in either of these relations to
the head of the family, whether the
father, or mother, or a brother, or a
sister, or other relation, is the head;
but they must be persons who are de-
pendant, in some measure, on the head
for support, and who have an interest
in his holding his property.-Albamy

exhibited, had done their work. The
bidding for this ornament of the turf
was more spirited than the young man
from the country expected, but pres
emily to his delight he found himself
named as the animals purchaser.
Eagerly he repaired to the rendezvous
near Lexington avenue and Twenty
second street. But need we tell the
sequel? Is it requisite even to hint that
the too persuasive householder had
vanished like vapor wreath that
dims the summer mornp" Does the
symmetry of our tale call for the reve-
lation that the creature the young man
from the country was leading, more
like Rosinante than Bucephalus, would
be dear for ten-dollar greenbackP We
trust not, and therefore crave permits
sion toleave these painful details to the
sympathizing readers imagination, and
to the, we fear, non-sympathizing hear
ers who will grin over the story next
week in Sullivan County around Win
ter's fire.-N. 2. Evening Post.

Sulphur In Diphtheria.

THE use of common sulphur as a
remedy for diphtheria has been tried
with success in this city, and this paper
has repeatedly published the fact,
Diphtheria being unusually prevalent
in Rochester, N. Y, just now, DIR. G.
L. Beach, of that city, addresses the
following letter to the Union and i'd
Uertiser:
That sulphur is of great value in the
treatment of diphtheria think l have
reason to feel convinced, but how far
it is entitled to rank as specific leave
for the test of extensive experience. A
great deal has been printed in medical
Journals about sulphur, sulphurous
acid, ETC., etc., as a specific in diph-
iberia, asquinine is said to be in malaria.
In my opinion it is not specific. Many
medicines of great virtue in the treat
ment of disease possess no claims as
specifics.
do not write for the purpose of en-
tightening the profession, nor for the
purpose of giving to the public cure
for diphtheria, but simply as a per-
formance of a duty which / think is too
much ignored by physicians. Diph-
iberia of a malignant type is prevailing
extensively at the present time, and it
is the duty of all to give one another
the benefit of experience, with such
remedies as are given out from time to
time as useful in the treatment of this
disease, and more especially as it is a
prominent fact that as yet there is no
very satisfactory method of cure for
malignant diphtheria.

from the revived alliance of the Solid South and
Tammany Hall. Against that danger it sought to
rally the old party of Freedom and the Union. 1t
began by demanding the abandonment of personal
dislikes, and set the example. 1t called for end
to attacks upon each other instead of the enemy !;
and for the heartest agreement upon whatever fit
candidates the majority should put up against the
common foe. Since then the tide of disaster has
been turned back every doubtful state has been
won, and the omens for National victory were never
more cheering.
THE TRIBUNE'S POSITION.
