A Small POx Remedy.

A correspondent of the Stock ton
California; "Berald" writes as follows;
81 herewith append recipe which
has been used to my knowledge in hun.
dreds Of cases. 1t will prevent or cure
the smallpox, though the pittings are
filling. When Jenner discovered COW
pox in England, the world of science
hurled an avalanche of fame upon his
head, but when the most scientific
school of medicine in the world-that
of Paris-published this recipe as a
panacea for smallpox 1t passed unheed-
ed. tits as unfailing as fate, and con-
quers in every instance. 1t is harmless
when taken by well person. 1t will
also cure scarlet fever. Here ia re-
cipe as have used it, and cured my
children of scarlet fever; here IT is as !
have used 1t to cure the smallpox; when
learned physicians said the patient
must die, 1t cured: Sulphate of zinc,
one grain; foxglove (digitalis), one
grain; half a teaspoonful of sugar; mix
with two tablespoonfuls of water. When
thoroughly mixed add four ounces of
water. Take spoonful every hour.
Either disease will disappear in twelve
hours. For child smaller doses, &C.
cording to age. If counties would COM
pei their physicians to use this, there
would be no need Of pssthouses. III
you value advice and experience, use
his for that terrible disease.

Flowing by Electricity.

Flowing by steam has long been prac.
ticed but plowing by electricity was at.
tempted for the first time recently in
France on the estate of the great choco.
late manufacturer, Menier. The expert.
ment, which was made in the presence
of number of scientific men and Jour
nalists, was entirely successful. The
plow was directed by man, who, seat
ed on a sort of saddle, retained perfect
control of the machine. The new mo-
tive power was transmitted through
slender wires, which caused the wheels
Of the carriage to revolve and thus pro.
pei the plow through the soil. 1t is
claimed that plowing in economically
than by horse power. The Meniers
have purchased the patent for the in.
veution and Lr, pose to test it thorough
ly. Should all that is claimed foi it be
proven, a revolution in our present
method Of tilling the soil must follow.

Runishing Reporters.

EDITOR MISUNDERSTANDING the of.
forts to bring to justice the whole gang
of repeaters, has only partially sue,
ceeded, owing to the obtuseness of the
parties intrusted with the arrest of the
oftenders-one fact has been established
to wit: That there is a court, and a
prosecuting officer who will administer
equal and exact justice, to those who
set at naught the laws, and expect to
find immunity therefor, on account of
their political status. Hereafter, if
such wholesale attempts at repeating
are made, it will only be necessary to
keep the parties 80 voting, well in
sight, and get the evidence direct and
positive, in order to secure conviction.
A few such lessons as have been taught
this time, will convince the tools of the
originators of these schemes of
fraud, that it don't pay to vote crook
ed and then have to take the conse-
ouepcs, FAIR PLAY.

A Valuable Dog.

Casper Darlington the faithful ard
obliging deliverer of goods for the
Adams Express Company at West
Chester, owns a valuable dog "Coalie."
Every morning this dog goes to the
depot of the West Chester & Philadel-
phia Railroad, and as soon as the 7.2O
train arrives jumps into the baggage
car, where he gets the manifest from
Mr.. James Hammond, the express meg
senger, and starts up to the express
office to Mr.. Darlington who takes the
manifest and prepares the delivery book
by the time the wagon reaches the office.
"Coalie" will not allow anything to
interfere with him while he is carrying
the manifest. This is certainly o
valuable dos. g.--'' 'Resord."

3. Marshall, Cashier Of the First Ma.
tional Bank OF Middlstown, Ohio, has
fled; leaving behind him letters to Off
oers Of the bank and his family, sx-
planning that he Is driven TO flight by
slandsr and black-mail. Marshall has
been trusted employe Of the bank for
Is years. Several months ago some
letters he wrote to young lady Of
MiddlstOwn, who was spending the
summer at Chautauqua, got into the
hands Of third parties, and were found
to contain expressions of an affection
ate character. Marshall Immediately
placed the matter before the officers Of
the bank and of his church, and asked
for searching investigation. 1t was
found that he had befriended the girl,
who was an orphan, from her childhood
and his explanation that his relations
toward her we're those Of guardian
rather than lover, was fully accept
ed. The gossip about the affair had
subsided, and the pnblic had almost
forgotten the case, when his abrupt de-
parture was announced. In letters
which he left, he stated that he had
been in constant receipt of oommunica-
tions threatening his life and position
unless he paid large amounts Of mo-
ney. He felt also that hewas the sub
ject Of taunts and suspicious, and those
he could not endure. He would 60
elsewhere and seek homo for his fam
lily. He decided his home to his wife,
and left her 81, 500 in money. The Di-
reotors Of the bank say he is not de-
fsuter. The people of the place gen.
orally believe that his statements are
true. He is thought 10 have gone to
