HYDROPHOBIA.
.,o,i,er suupo.ett Case I'm the City.


A pain(ul rumor prevailed this morning
that little David Ziesler, aged six years.
an adopted son of Frank Ziegler, NO. AZ
Manor street. was attacked yesterday with
symptoms strongly resembling hydrOpho-
Gia. The child was bitten about the LIST
of August by setter dog belonging to his
father The do. was ut the time lying at
the back door OF tic house, and the boy
wanting to pass it struck It slight blow,
whercupon it flew at his face and bit him
in the lip and lacerated one of his
eye lids so badly that it required the ser
vices of DR.. Foreman to sew it up. The
do. was not supposed to be mad, but as 1t
had shown itself to he vicious it was killed:
The little boys wounds healed nicely. and
the affair was passing out of the MINDS ol
his adopted parents, when yesterday morn
ing the child was taken suddenly Ill: he
could cat no breakfast, refused to tahe BIS
coffee, and asked for water, little Oh
which lle drank, and then complained Ol
feeling cold. His eyes became much d.
lated and at intervals he appeared to be
unable to talk. lie was induced to take
some warm tea to warm him up, aud soon
afterwards complained that he was burning
all over and felt sick. In the afternoon
DIR. Foreman was sent for and gave INN
some liquid medicine, and left some for
him to take at intervals He resisted
takin" it and some force had to be used In
administering it. lie frequently shuddered
and screamed, complaining of pain IN the
chest.
Hearing that DIR. Foreman had express
cd Il fear that llc might be suffering from
hydrophobia.: Il representative of the INTEL
LIGESCEI called at Mr.. ZicSlcr's this morn
img and found the lad in much the
same condition as represented above.
He is bright and intelligent little
fclIpw and ut times talked cliccrfuliy, but
suddenly would cry out and gasp for breath
aud in moment afterwards appeared 10
be at ease. Ills pulse was weak, his tongue
Il good deal coated, the pupil of the eyes
much tiiIatcd, and the expression rather
glaring. lie has eaten nothing since Tues
day afternoon, and appears to lOathe tho
very name of food. Except during mo-
mcntary spasms of pain hc talked ration
ally and even clccrfulIy, asked if it was
not time to take his medicine, and took 1t
with the least pcrccptiblc shuddcr. lie
seemed pleased with small picture
of Hancock given him by the re-
porter, recognizing it ut once, saying
that It was Gen. Hancock, and that hc was
| Il Hancock boy.
On leaving him the reporter called at
the office of DR.. Foreman, and found there
DIR. John l.. AtIcc and DIR. NJ. l.. Herr in
consultation with him relative to the case.
The doctors were not prepared to give an
opinion us to whether the boy was or was
not suffering from hydroplnobia, and not
wishing to bc obtrusivc the reporter
bowed himself out, promising to see them

ga Free Ballot and q Fair Count

One of the best sentences in Gen. Hancock's
letter of acceptance, which left upon the mind
the same impression of neatness and vacancy
as a school-boys copy-book, was that in which
the candidate of the Democracy demanded a
''full vote, free ballot and fair count" 1t was
an excellent sentiment, to which every Repub-
lican would heartily subscribe. But General
Hancock's letter professed to be statement of
Democratic principles. With the platform to
which it was a response, it was an appeal to
the country to trust the $4,000 o ffices of the
Government in the hands of the Democratic
party. The question for voters therefore, is
not whether the declaration is sound one,
but whether, being put forth by the Democrat
ic party it is an honest one, or is fraud and
cheat. The answer is easy.
1t is in the South that the Democratic par
ty does its perfect work. There are no steadi-
ly Democratic States north of Delaware. In
the South the party has gained complete con-
troll. In the South, therefore, it has had a
noble opportunity to put into practice General
Hancock's motto of "full vote, free ballot
and fair count" Has it done so? What are
the facts? Let us look for moment at this
dark page in American history.
Even Democrats will admit that by the year
1872 the Democratic party was we'll organized
in every Southern State. In Alabama, for ex-
ample, in that year, the Democratic vote was
only 10000 less than it was in the election OF
1878, two years ago Yet TINS is the way IN
which the Republican party has prospered un-
der the rule of the party of ''a free ballot and
fair count" the figures being the votes cast
in the years named

The nomination at Saco yesterday fulfilled
the expectations of the District. Mr.. Reed
has made for the the First Congressional
District OF Maine a national reputation, and
brought it honor and wide approval He
has placed himself in the very fore-fron. of
our legislators, and distinguished himself
in House made up of the ablest of the
land.
The manner in which his nomination was
brought about, by the unanimous vote of the
delegates in convention, shows the hold he
has upon the voters of the district and the
regard they entertain for him. That regard
will seek and find an emphatic expression

In commenting upon General Hancock's S
letter of acceptance the Charleston Is. C)
News (Dem. comedies that the letter is not
a practical one in the sense that the Repub-
lican and Independent press would apply
that term, and argues as follows: ''The
Democracy do not appeal to the people to
elect their candidate because they hold par
ticular views concerning the tariff or the
currency, public improvements, national
banks or land grants, but because the policy
declared and practised by the Republican
party will insensibly change the whole strue-
tnre of our government" In reply to this
the Boston Herald (Ind.) says: 'If this is
the ground to be taken, and the questions
of the hour are to be tossed aside for po-
litical theory, then the Democratic party
had better throw up the fight in advance" !"
