SLOWLY SINKING. Professor George II.
Cook, State Geologist, is reported as having
come to the conclusion which many South
Jersey residents have long entertained, that
the land in Cape May and Cumberland coun-
ties is gradually but certainly settling. From
knowledge now in his possession he estimates
that the surface has settled about eight feet
during the last hundred years. During a
recent visit he declared 1t his intention to
test the matter by placing stone posts in the
ground at certain localities, record of which
should be kept SO as to insure their being
found at any future time, said stones to be so
set and marked with reference to their height
above the sea level, in order that 1t may be
positively understood whether that portion of
the State is becoming lower and at what rate
Old residents of the lower portion of Cum
berland county, and in the neighborhood of
the mouth of Maurice river, show land that
was once considered high land, and contained
light, dry looking, sandy soil, that now is
low, black and heavy. The great tide which
came in October of 1878, swept further inland
and did greater damage to farms adjoining
the meadows, destroyed more timber and
emptied itself into a greater number of SUR
face wells than any of the great tides on
record.

The President was safely removed yester-
day from Washington to Long Branch. The
train left Washington at $50 A. NJ, and ar
rived at Elberon at t.3o P. N. All the ar
rangements for removing him answered per-
fectly, and he suffered but little fatigue,
although portions of the trip were made at
over a mile minute. Toward evening, how
ever his pulse ran up to 1874, and 1t continued
at this for greater part of the night.
The latest bulletin as we go to press, Is as
follows
Lone BRANCH, 0. A M.-President slept
the greater part of the night, awakening at
intervals to take nourishment.
This morning his symptoms are improved
and be appears to have recovered from the
effects of the journey.
Pulse 108 s; Temp. 95.7 Resp. Is.

HISTORY DONE OYER.

It is surprising how stupid the people were
who lived in this country during the late re-
bellion. Then they firmly believed that Bu-
chanan was an old imbecile, coward and south
ern sympathizer, who feared to do known
and sworn duty because it would hurt his
friends of the South, and who showed no
comprehension Of the great responsibilities of
his position, no decision of character and
NO patriotism, when to have possessed these
would have made his memory immortal. But
how greatly mistaken these people were If
certain recent contributions to the history of
the war are to be relied upon.
The Phia Press has dug up some old fossils
of the age before the flood, and is printing
their senile mouthings as important addi-
tons 10 history Judge Black, the man
who duiing the late presidential campaign,
broadly endorsed Gen. Garfield as thoroughly
honest and upright, and then took occasion
to give him q stab in the back just as the
campaign was closing, Is the person who
vouehes for Buchanan's loyalty and patriot
ism and In turn, Judge Holt, is reported as
endorsing the loyalty of Judge Black. Both
of them will want more endorsing then they
can get, before the people will believe them
to be all that their endorsers want the people
to believe. Their actions curing the opening
of the Rebellion are too aforementioned to
make it possible to SO do over" history as
to blot this recollection Of their double deal
ing aud secession-sympathy from memory.
Not content with the effort to put gid on
base metal, Judge Black has attacked the
memory Of Stanton the stern, the grand,
the loyal and patriotic War Secretary of
Lincoln, aud represents him as covering
lick-spittle before the vacillating James
Buchanan One would suppose that Judge
Black would not court comparison between
himself and the man he malgns. There is
the same difference as between cat and lion
"a wind mill and locomotive.
History cannot be made over. Tho men
who hesitated on the brink of duty, to see
how policy dictated and fortune favored,
placed themselves where their course will
ever remain warning to all who while know
ing the right, are tempted the wrong to
pursue.

Disconnected and unsatisfactory as the
dispatches from Arizona are, it may never
theless be stated that our troops have again
suffered severely at the hands of the Indians.
General Carr was stationed at Fort Apache
with two companies of the Sixth United
States calvery. On Wednesday last it seems
Lieutenant Cruise was ordered to arrest one
of the medicine men of the White Mountain
Apaches. The offender resisted and shot
Cruise. Then the company which Cruise COM
manded shot and killed the medicine man.
In immediate retaliation the Indians, led by
some of the Indian scouts probably in the
pay of the United States government, are re-
ported to have literally massacred the entire
white garrison, including seven officers and
upward of seventy men. 1t is also stated
that Fort Apache, where Mrs. Carr aud other
ladies had quarters, was subsequently captur-
ed by the Indians. This report, however, is
not confirmed, though what was TO prevent
the capture of the fort is not stated, il the
soldiers were all killed. AS the rebels num-
Der about fifteen hundred and the savages start
on the warpath with all the ecJat of victory,
according to their notions, the government
has evidently very serious affair on hand.
LATER.-Later reports show that but seven
Of Col. Carr force was killed.

MEDICAL QUALITIES IN WATERMELoNs.-
A prejudice has long existed In the minds of
many persons against the use of watermelons
on the ground of their being unhealthy, aud
many cases of collie, cholera morbus and
similar diseases have been charged to their
use. A writer in Food and Health takes
very different view of the subject aud stands
up bravely in defence of the much abused
vegetable. He says: +" l can imagine the
horror of certain readers who fancy that they
are so peculiarly constituted that they can't
eat fruit and waterinelons. Mercy | should
have an attack of cholera morbus.' There
is not, in my opinion, one such person in the
world who would be troubled by watermelons
if taken after fast day. It might start the
sluiceway in tho case of a constipated person,
who has been clogging up with bad food for
days and weeks, aud save life. If SO, 1t would
prove the safest physc in the world. Water
melon contains about ninety-five per cent. OF
the purest water, and @ trace of the purest
sugar, and nothing has yet been discovered
that furnishes so perfect and speedy cure for
summer complaint as watermelon, and moth
ing else. Even when diarrh@a has been kept
up by continued eating of ordinary food,
until the disease has become chronic, this de-
licious beverage--for it is little more --water-
melon, taken freely two or three times day
has again and again been known to work
wonders and to cure when all the usual reme-
dies had faied."

Marshal Henry says that President Gar
fields disincination to make trouble has been
specially noticeable during his illness. he is
what nurses call good patient. He is not
fretful, and never whines. No complaint has
escaped his lips during the long sultry days
and nights. He has often said to the nurses
and physicians that be was sorry to make
them trouble. To short, he has been the per-
feet gentleman and kind hearted man even in
the shadow of death.
Steel rails have been laid on the New York
Susequehauna, and Western Railroad nearly
all the way between Paterson and New York,
aud also on other sections of the line in the
mountains where the old rails were worn out.
The substitution of steel rails will be pushed
steadily forward. 1t was intended to double
track the road between Paterson aud New
York this fall but 1t has been decided to de-
fer this improvement until next spring.
This is a queer world. Severe winter

ITs Own LINE TO WASHINGTON I'm ac-

purchase of majority of the capital stock,
the Philadelphia, Wilmington, and Baltimore
Railroad, with its branches while nominally
preserving its individuality as n corporation,
on Thursday passed into the general manage
ment and control of tine Pennsylvania Rail-
road Company. The general officers of the
pennsylvania Railroad Company, such as
Vice President, General Manager, Auditor,
General Passenger Agent, and SO on, have
been elected to the same offices in the Philadel-
phia, Wilmington, and Baltimore Railroad
Company President Hinkley has consented
to retain his position until the next annual
meeting, to give the incoming management
the benefit of the familiarity derived from his
sixteen years direction of the road. In ac-

While corn and potatoes in this country are
suffering for want of rain, some of the grain
crops of Great Britain are being ruined by
continuous heavy storms. few weeks ago
the crop prospects were encouraging, and, on
the basis of estimates then published, an
effort was made to show that we would not be
called upon for much grain for export. What
ever may have been the state of the case then,
1T seems pretty certain now that the crop in
Great Britain will be reduced by the rains of
the last three weeks to the proportions of that
of 1870. In that event there will be good
demand for the not over abundant crop of this
country, and however much the farmers of
England may suffer, those of the United
States will have no reason to complain.

The demagogues of both parties helped to
frame ridiculous law last winter which pre-
vents our state prison from keeping the con-
victs at work. Under that law only one hum
bred men can be hired to one contractor. AS
result of the law 400, or one half, of the con-
vcts are idle. OF those employed, Downs u
Finch have fifty making linen and muslin
shirt colors, 100 in the laundry, and fifty in the
shirt factory. The linen and collar industry
is new one just introduced Mcknight u
Co. have 100 in the shoe factory. An average
of 100 are employed at odds and ends in var
ious parts of the prison.

the worst which proposes to wreak ven
