The regular quarterly meeting of the Re-
publican Blues was held last night at theil
armory, and was very largely attended, con
siderable enthusiasm being manifested. The
most important business was the presenta
ton of a report by the special committed
in reference to a change OF uniform
the engagement OF a brass band, and other
matters of deep interest to the corps. The
report was received, and It was decided to
act upon it finally at a special meeting OF
the corps, to be held on the night of the
2lst inst.
Several new members were elected, and
the company then proceeded to the election
OF uOn commissioned officers, to ill vacan-
eies Occasioned by designations, with the
following result:
Sergeant Jos. s. Wilmington to be First
or Orderly Sergeant, and Lance Corporal
n. Nathans to be Fifth Corporal.
Sergeant Wilmington has for some time been
acting as Orderly Sergeant, and has proven
himself an excellent soldier and an efficient
officer. This election to the highest posi-
ton on the on-cOmmissiOned staff is a
very deserved compliment.
After the transaction Of some further
routine business the meeting was adjourned,
and the company. by invitation Of the Cap
tain, repaired 10 the adjoining room, where
a brother member had, with Christian kind
ness, provided two mammoth bowls Of de-
licious ice cold lemonade and wine punch,
proving himself good Christian.
Whilst the discussion of the cooling bev-
ersges was progressing, amidst the smoke
OF fragrant Havanas, the Mechanics Brass
Band, on their return from escOrting Mr..
Parnel to the hotel, stopped in front of the
nail and eomplimented the corps with a
snTnnQnp Of IN fad
up and refreshed. The social affair con-
tinued about an hour, when the corps dis
persed, huoYant with the hope Of a great
future for the corps.

To Prevent Snn.troke.

DR.. Edward c. Mann, of New York, gives
the following hints for the prevention OF
suustroke: To avoid sunstroke, exercise in
excessively hot weather should be very
moderate, the clothing should be thin aud
loose, aud abundance OF cold water should
be drank. Workmen and soldiers should
understand that as soon as they cease to
perspire while working or marching in the
lot sun, they are in danger of sunstroke,
and they should Immediately drink water
freely and coplously, to afford mat
ter for cutsneOus Transportation, and also
keep the skin and clothing wet
with water. Impending suustroke may
often be warded off by these simple meas
ures. Beside the cessation of Precipitation,
the pupils of the eyes are apt to be con
tracted, and there is a great frequency of
mictuTitiOn. II there is marked exhaustion
with a weak pulse, resulting from the cold
water application, we should administer slim
ulants. The free use of water, however,
both externally and internally, by those
exposed to the direct rays Of the
sun, is the best prophylactic against
sunstroke, and laborers or soldiers,
and Others who adopt this measure,
washing their hands and faces, as well as
drinking oopIously of water every time they
come within reach of it, will generally enjoy
perfect immunity from sunstroke. Straw
hats should be worn, ventilated at the top,
and the crown Of the hat filed with green
leaves or wet sponge. 1t is better to wear
thin flannel shirts, in order not to check
perspiration. We may expose ourselves for
a long time in the hot sun, and work or
sleep IN heated room, and enjoy perfect
immunity from sunstroke If we keep our
skin and clothing wet with water.
