According to the researches of d.
Brush, the milk of ruminants, When
swallowed, is coagulated by the acids OF
the stomach into a hard mass. Henc
calves, lambs, etc., which have taken
no food but the milk of their mother,
always chew the cud. Animals which
do not ruminate consequently find q
difficulty in digesting the milk o.
ruminant species. On the other hand
human milk, and that of mares, asse.
and other non-ruminant animals, coagu
lates into small granular or focculen
masses, which are easily digested.

MILLER's MIRACLES IN WHICH ms
NEIGHBORsBELIEYE.
Me- MAKES THE SICK WELL, II DUMB
TALK, THE DEAF HEAR, AM
the LANE WALK.

W~ytheSllle, Va, April l5.-FOr some
weeks past the people Of Scott county
have been terribly excited over the mir
acles which have been performed by
Richard Miller, of that county. His
fame has extended all over this section
Of this State, ahd hundreds Of the afilic-
ted are daily visiting him. KILLER is a
middle aged man employed as the keep
err of McMullin's mill, near Estillville.
He is deeply religious, and claims to
have had a dream month ago in which
the idea was impressed upon him that,
with Gods help, he could perform Won
derful cures simply through faith. He
states that the next day after a fervent
prayer, he healed a sick man by touch
ing him. The intelligence Of the mira
Gle went all over the country, and the
afflicted of all kind came to him, aud
were healed simply by the touch Of his
hand.
Yesterday G.. n. Wertz, a phOtogra-
pher at Abingdon. visited Miller, in
company with n paralytic uncle, the
seat of par alysis being in the mouth,
which deprived him both of the powers
of speech and hearing. Miller looked
at the afflicted man, and after n short
prayer touched him, and told him that
before he reached home he would be
well. Last night, rs Mr.. Wertz enter
ed the door Of his house OH his return,
his hearing aud speech came back to
him, and to-day he is apparently hale
and hearty.
Miss Irene Newton, a beautiful young
lady of Bristol, Tenn, helpless from
rheumatism, was brought to Miller last
week, aud, when an attempt was made
to lit her in the carriage, she rose from
the sedan chair and said she was en-
tirely well.
One of the most wonderful miracles
of Miller was the cure of Mr.. Peter
Whitsell, who has been for some years
afflicted with cancer. The cancer was
touched, and in three days has disap-
peared.
The miracle worker is a n exceeding
ly modest man and always Indignantly
declines any compensation for his
services, alleging that he is but the
humble servant of God. lie takes no
credit to himself for the performance
of these miracles. All the people in
his section believe firmly in his mirac-
ulous power.

The American ROthschiId.

WHEN the last quarters checks for
interest Oh Four-per-cent. bonds were
sent out the first of this month, VIM. II.
Vanderbilt had registered in his name
Four-per-cent. bonds to the amount Of
$40, 000, 900, which makes him at this
time the owEcr of $jl ,O0O, 900 of that
class of bonds. 1t Is reported here that
it is Mr.. Vanderbilt's purpose to invest
in FOur-per-cent. bonds the money he
will receive in a few days in Il final set
Element for the New York Central Rail-
road stock sold to the syndicate.
The increasing popularity of this
class of bonds is shown by the fact that
alarge number of them are being re-
ceived daily by the Register Of the
Treasury from small holders for trans
fer. 1t is said that if Vanderbilt should
sell all his Central stock he could be-
come the owner of 800, 600 900 of Gov
eminent bonds, or about onc-fourteenth
of all that are in existence. As 1t is,
he owns more than Que man ever held
against this Government, and 1t
amounts to rs much as the entire annu-
al expenses of the Government some
veals before the war. The checks for
interest which he will receive for in
tcrest every ninety days will amount
to over $500, 900, or over $1,000 n day.

Presidential Struggle.

Special to the Cincinnati Commercial:
The Blaine men are making q mighty
fight with documents. They are hav-
ing printed and sent out over one mill
ion copies of the biographical sketch
of Blaine, together with his portrait
and the speech of Ingersoll, at Cincin-
natl, made when Blaine wasn't nomi-
mated, four years ago. All taken to-
gethcr, this Is the most popular doc
ument that has been issued from the
Blaine headquarters. The Blaine men
seem to have an abundance of money,
supplied, probably, by his Eastern
friends. The Grant men say that
Blai ac and his friends are spending n
hundred dollars where Grants friends
are spending
General Merritt, Collector of Customs
at New York, says that Il large part OF
the delegation from that State to Chica-
go will not obey their instructions, but
will vote for Sherman. General Mer-
ritt thinks it is their duty to do this,
and thai public sentiment will justify
them.
There is much atloat in the papers as
coming from G. w. MOulton which he
did not say. lie has never said that
the Sherman men in Ohio would sup
port Grant instead of Blaine, or refuse
to support Blaine If nominated. Some
of them might, as Il matter of preference
but there have been no threats of that
sort from responsible sources.
AS tor Mr.. Sherman himself, he says
emphatically that he will support thu
Chicago nominee. lie has never had
any other intention, or authorized OF
sanctioned any threats or insinuations
to the contrary.

Prejudice Againts COIOred Ca

Special to the Cincinnati Commercial {:
Senator Bruce does not believe thar
Cadet Whitaker is guilty of the mis-
chief of tying and %mutilating himself.
Senator Logan introduced Il resolution
in the Senate, calling upon the Secreta-
ry of War for information about the
case, and it is still pending. During the
debate, Senator Bruce made a very SELL
sible speech, and sl.o we'd considerable
feeling. Among other things he said
that bitter experience had proved thai
it was useless to appoint cOlorcd boy
to Il Cadetship in either the Naval OF
Military Academy.
While his race was admitted to Con-
gress, to the Courts, to the pulpit, and
to other professions, upon an equality
with the whites, social prejudice had 50
far hedgcd around the army any navy
against colored men, and of the many
colored cadets that had been admitted
to West Point aud Annapolis, only one
had ever succeeded ia reaching u grad
uation. II might be their own fault,
but what he knew of the ill-trcatmenl
and ostracism several of them had re-
ceived, he was inclined to belive THAI
it was not entirely so. Hardship had
been heaped upon them that white Ca
diets knew nothing of, difficulties had
been thrown in their way that most oil
the white cadets could not haye over
come, and, while he regretted TO say it,
he felt that the army and navy wOulj
contain men of his race had the treat
mcnt they had received been the same
that their white companions enjoyed.
Senator Hoar followed and corrobo-
rated what he had said. 1t appeared
that Cadet Hood, who was dismissed
from the Naval Academy for maltreat-
ing II colored cadet Baker, was restor-
ed less than II year after his dismissal.

Then and Now.

Washington Post: Mr.. Tilden received
the solid vote of Maine on the first bal
lot in the st. Louis convention, but he
will not get it at Cincinnati.
Neither will he receive the vote of
Connecticut, which was solid for him
before. Ex-Governor English or Sen
ator Eaton will be accorded that honor.
Florida was unanimously for him In
1876, but it is doubtful if he gets II vote
from her in 1880.
CalifOrhia's vote was then his, first
and last, but this time it will probably
be east as decidedly for Judge Field.
Illinois was divided fairly in halves,
but at Cincinnati will probably be SOL
id for Morrison.
Maryland aud Michigan were his by
a two-thirds vote before, but both are
against him now.
Mississippi cast her full vote for him
then; now she will cast her full vote
against him.
New Hampshire was solid at st. Louis
but ut Cincinnati will at least be divi-
ded.
Nevada and Oregon were both for
him, but will now BE- carried fol Judge
Field.

CAIRO, Ills, April l6.-General
Grant, on his arrival, was escorted to

consisting OF military, fire Companies
and civic societies. After an address
for the city government by Mayor
ThIstleword, and an address in behalf

Gen. Grant being introduced, spoke as
follows:
Gentlemen, Friends and Fellow
citiZens-Aftcr an absence of seven
teen years from Cairo, the point from
which | might almost date the begin
ming of my late military career, it
affords me great pleasure to come back
and find instead of addressing Il camp,
IA prosperous city, built up and devoted
to the interests Of peace. 1t has been
my good fortune to have just passed
through a little bit of ev0ry one of the
southern states, all of the states lately
in rebellion, and about which so much
has been said, and it is gratifying
to me, aud | know it will be to you,
that IN every II of them the scenes,
the decorations and the speeches were
the same that we see and hear here to-
day. The stars and stripes were flCat-
ing everywhere, the great portion of
the speakers in every instance were men
who, in the cOuilict, wore the grey, and
| the speeches which they made show
their devotion to the flag for which we
fought, which is all we eve asked of
them-that they should respect aud
honor the flag, and become good citi-
zens, and hereafter if it should be
assailed by Il foreign foe, that they
should unite with us as one people.
From the assurances they give, | be-
lieve they are sincere, and | hope they
expressed the sentiments of great ma
jority. For, united rs II poodle, uni
ted as generous rivals in building up
our several states for the whole union,
and feeling that loyalty for the tilg, we
are Il great people, the greatest nation
in the world. TO stand divided we are
too nearly equal, man to man, to be Il
great and prosperous people. Let us
all hope that there may be Il genuine
union of sentiment; Il generous rivalry
for the building up ofour several states,
and the national pride above the state
pride. ] had no idea | should say so
much. 1t was the remarks made to me
that brought this ont. thank you Mr..
Speaker, citizens and friends; / thank
YOU for what we have seen here to-day.
