Quick Cure for Poison Oak.

A few months ago an eminent physician
who had tested the remarkable curative
qualities of Phosphate Soap for various skin
diseases expressed his belief that 1t would be
an excellent remedy for Poison Oak. 1t was
accordingly tested for this purpose. A boy
had been SO badly poisoned as to be confined
to his bed for week, and had his hands all
covered with sores when he began to use
Phosphate Soap. Within twenty-four hours
he was greatly relieved and in few days he
was entirely cured of Poison Oak by the use
OF Phosphafe Sodp.

THE TICKET AND THE PRESS.

From one end of the country TO the other
there is entire unauimity on the part of re-
publican newspapers with regard to the
Chicago nominations. The universal opinion
is that they have the great merit of bring
ing the party up to harmonious and ag-
gressive campaign. Both gentlemen on our
ticket are the stronger for the fact that
they are free from intrigue to gain the
nominatous-with all the bitternesses and
heart-burnings which would have been to
heal if either of the prominent candidates
had been selected.
There appears to be no room for boilers
and scratchers to air their grievances and
gain disproportionate importance by their
protests. That our candidates will escape
the malice Of those who seem TO live only
20 lie is too much to expect; but the opinion
is safe that both will pass the ordeal, and
will come forth with unblemished honor
and strengthened in the regard and respect
of all candid men, Although the support
ers of both General GRANT and Senator
BLAINE are justified in feeling some disap.
pointment, and though they may still think
their respective candidates would have
made a favorable result of the canvass more
certain, each is ready to acknowledge that
General GARFIELD represents with the
clearness due to his own eminent qualities
all that it most valued in history of the re.
publican party.
The nomination of General ARTHUR is
recognized rs due to the stalwart and stead
fast rcpublcanism of the supporters O.
General GRANT, and his name gives The
ticket strength in New York, which al
concede to be the key of the political posi-
ton.

THE Charleston Neus and Courier thus
fixes the social status of an unfaithful
United States official in the city by the
sea. Its revelations are no doubt important
in its own locality, but they will have an
air of burlesque in more northern regions
w. G. LAYTON, the colorcd mail.carrier
who was arrested Saturday night for robbing
the mrils, does not belong to the upper crust
of colored society in this city. He is a native
of Charleston, but before the war he was not
"a free person Of color" but the slave of DR..
KECKLEY. He was emancipated by tho war,
and is rated in society accordingly. Colored
society is divided into three general divisions
first those who were free before the war;
second, the lighter colorcd muattoes who were
freed by the war, aud third, q combination OF
colors from seal brown to coal black. LAW

THE Clearly and godly city of Philadel-
phia has appropriated $4,000 for the con-
struction and maintenance of free baths.
One is to be located on the Schuylkill and
another on the Delaware, where, at certain
hours and under proper regulations, all
persons may have the free use of inclosed
bathing places through which the water is
constantly flowing at graduated depth Of
from two TO four feet. Such arrangements
for bathing in the great river which sweeps
past this city would be at once a blessing
in a sanitary way and a life protection fol
small boys who will swim even if they
must drown for it. Free floating bath
houses are much-needed Improvements.

SOME sensation has been excited in Lou
don by the exhibition in the house of com
mons of cat" which has been used, it is
alleged, by missionaries at a British station
near Lake Nyassa for the purpose of fog
ing refractory converssts." This "cat is
said to be worse than that which was
claimed rs the special privilege of the
navy last year. The attention of the gov
ernment was called to the matter by a
member of the house, who hoped that until
the charge against thhe missionaries has
been thoroughly sifted the public will sus-
pend their Judgment.

THOSE who see in the long and exciting
struggle ut Chicago cause for doubling as to
the success of our nominees, we think en-
tirely miss the mark. The struggle taxed
every energy and every capacity for endur-
ance, because those working for the prize
felt sure of securing it--nOt only from the
convention, but at the ballot-box. The
leaders of the great factions were not there
spending time and wearing brain aud mus
Gle to gain an empty honor for their favor
lite. No one would have seen those giants
of politics join in such Il fray for fun. They
were the picked men among the shrewd
well-informed politicians of the union, and
from every part of it. They were certain
that the man named at Chicago would
WELD the power Of the federal government
for four years from next March. They did
not doubt 1t of any one of the candidates
however much it suited them to deny Tho
strength of one and lnud that of another.
was because of this certainty that the con
test was long and bitter. Had it beel
otherwise, all the work necessary TO name
candidate and make platform could have
been very pleasantly accomplished in on'
session.

AT the recent meeting of the American
Medical association the work done by the
national board of health during the past
year was very highly commended by Dr.
HlBBERD of Richmond, Ind, in his report
upon medical jurisprudence and state
hygiene. In the first instance, it had
amassed great deal of valuable informa-
! ton concerning the sanitary condition of
| the principal cities aud towns of the United
States. In the second, its commission to
investigate the yellow fever on the island
of Cuba-cOmposed of DR.. CHAILLE and
| Colonel HARDEE, of New Orleans; DR..
GuERITAs, of Philadelphia, and Surgeon
SrERNBURG, OF the United States army
had, after spending tho three summer
months on the island, issued report
containing facts of the highest value CON
corning the genesis Of the disease. In the
third place. the determination Of the
amount of organic matter in the air had
been projected, and Professor REMsEN, of
Johns Hopkins university, engaged to con-
duct the investigation. DIR. Folsom, of the
state board of health, Massachusetts,, was
performing a valuable service for the board
on the effects of disinfect ants especially
when applied TO iuclosed spaces, Inycsh-
cations on food adulteration and on the
diseases of iood-producing animals were
also in progress, under the direction of Pro-
fessor LAW, of Cornell university, Professor
A. LIAUTARD, Of New York, and DR., VERDI,
Of Washington. TO these important con-
tributions to science must be added saui-
tary survey of the city of Memphis, by
