evening Parker occupied the same posi-.
ton toward him. The evidence showed
that on Sunday. evening Crutchtield

ing something. A neighhor testified
that she in company with Parker and
his wife, searched the place after his
departure, and found two five dollar
gold pieces, three Bland dollars aud
some small change, which correspond
with some of the money that was
taken. The Mayor held him in $500 Tor

Whythe DlsI.nciiUny

DR.. Ogle, one Of the physicians OF the
small BON hospitals, thaa explains why
the ,olored patients alone occupy the
canvass covered smallpox hospital
teut>. He SAYS when The tents were
| nnlsned wo OF tueiu were Intended for
white patients and two for black pa
tituts. When the late sudden outbreak
| ol the disease occurred 1t WAS almost
exclusively confined to cOlorcd patients,
and hey were brought out i'll sucil
numbers to the new hospital tents rs
not only to occupy the Two tents set
apart tor their special use, but also
tiled up the whole four tents before
scarcely any white patients were
brought out to the hospitals. Under
these circumstances there was nothing
| left TO be done than to remove the
white patients to the Old hospital ana
leave the coloreu patients in possession
of tlt tents. To show that Ire colored
patients have not suffered by such an
arrangement it is only necessary to
compare the admissions to the hospital
During the mont. ending July 21lh
| the were admitted to the tents 70
persons, all black, and To the old hospi-
tai 81 persons, all white. OF the l20
back patients tn re were ~ deaths, or
there was a death rate of about 1913 per
cent.
OF the 50 white patients III the old
hospital there we're 8 deaths, or IA death
rate Of about 22.6 per cent. DR.. OgIe
produces these figures to controvert the
statement that the hospital tents are
mere Slaua hter pens or Cnarn,l houses.

The remarkable cures which have everywhere
resulted from the use of this preparation have
developed The startling fact that no merely
local treatment, like snuffs, douches, ana IN
halations can possibly reach or destroy ca

covered by Dr. Wei DE Meyer are absorbed
throughout the mucous membranous system
in two minutes time, thus forming an 1nocu.

A Soatherner at Cbautau q ua


1t is a splendid place to study the
Yankee in his social aspect. Here
upon his native heath and in the midst
OF his own people he is thoroughly and
entirely himself, and those who run
may read the difference between him
and the Southerner In the first place
he is undoubtedly less genial and warm
hearted than the Southern man. This
shows itself in many ways. For in
stance, notice that among the guests
at these Summer, resorts there is none
of that unrestrained kindly general in
termingling and friendly exchange of
courteses which constitute the great
charm ut our Southern watcring-place
Instead of that these people divide into
separate cliqucs and parties, and make
it a point to take absolutely no notice
of any one outside of their own set.
They won't even look At stranger
much less speak to one. rais is not the
ness aud indifference. Speaking of
etiquette, however, the Yankees GER
tainly havei in some respects better man.
ners than We have. They don't talk
as loud nor laugh as boisterously, nor
grumble as much az We do. They new
er forget themselves" they, don't
romp, they don't gush; they are never
rolllcking; there is 10 abandon about
them, even in seeking pleasure. They
are, as class better educated than our
people. they know more and they know
il more accurately: but they do not talk
about it with near IN much inttres and
enthusiasm as we do They talk poll
tics very little. happened to be in a
party of Ohio gentlemen when the news
OF the New York Senatorial election
was received; it seemed 10 create no in
terest whatever, and scarcely elicted q
remark. One other point Of comparison
and am done. Their gills are not
half as pretty as ours. This is very
marked. Daring the past week have
seen at these Two resorts several hum
dred young ladies, belonging, suppose
to the elite of Northern Society, and
not one of them would be considered
beautiful in Columbus. | am sure
could pick out dozen girls in Column
bus pr"ttier than the very prettiest
Yankee cir. have Yet seen. Moreover
they don't dance as gracefully as our
G,ris, nor iiirt As outray aously, nor look
a. loving OUT Of the eyes.

in the REPUBLICAN stating that the
owners Of the yacht Annie NJ. had ac-
cepted the challenge of the Little Har-
ry" yacht Club, to race the Annie M:
of New Castle, for a purse of 5000, and
requested committee from the
''L. H." to meet them in New Castle,
that same evening to put up the money
and make arrangements for the race
The committee, however, could not &C
over on the evening named but went
over on the next day to see the party
1t was agreed then TO meet on Monday,
the sth instant, at which time
the "L. H." committee went ovel
but no committee from the Annie

race was the consequence.
If they thought the ."L. H." would
back ont they were deceived. The 81.

How q Boy was Treated.

hOW u DOy WAY AFeAteUs
Elruy Welch, u ten year old son OF
DIR. Welch, Fifth and West streets, was
one of the inmates of the old small pox
hospital. He called at the REruBLI.
CAN Office this morning to refite'the re-
ports which are in circulation charging
incompetency and mismanagementi in
the conduct of the small poX hospitals.
Though young he is a very intelligent
lad, and closely observed and retained
in his memory all that was going on at
the no pital. He was taken there the
first of April and remained there eight
weeks. He says he was carefully and
tenuerly nurSed, first by a white man
living on Sixth street, but whose name
he could not recollcct. Nicholas White
afterwards became his nurse and then
colored man nursed him.
| During the time that the disease was
at its height, Mr.. and Mrs. Fisher
came in almost hourly 10 see him and
talked attectionately TO him, and after
he got better they still came III to sec
him at least twice day. Mrs Fisher,
he says, had his he'd clothes washed and
changed once week and his bodily
clo,hing was changed twice a week.
The vctuals furnished was of the best
and plenty of II, and he became so at.
tachcd to Mr. and Mrs. Fisher that he
often wanted to 90 out to the hospital
to see them.
In regard to Mrs. Fisher coming tc
Dr. Welch's house after night, tins hap,
pened but upon one occasion and then
she came with another lady, after she
had hanged her clothing, to get DR.,
