A HANDSOME DONATION.

One of the handsomest donations received by the
Union Veteran Corps is Grand Army rank badge,
presented by THE NATIONAL TRIBUNE, of this city,
and which is to be awarded to the present past
Commander who shall receive the highest number
of votes cast during the continuance of the fair
which opened on the 9th ultimo The badge now
on exhibition in the window of Messrs. Wlllett &
,u S store, is of the regulation size shape, and
design, worked in solid gold, and presents de-
cidedly rich aud massive appearance From the cross
bar which represents miniature shoulder-strap,
bearing upon its enameled centre the insignia indi
eating the wearers rank the badge is suspended by
means Of two golden chains, attached to the outer
ends of the bar and the two uppermost points Of the
star, from the lower point of which wgeath of
gold extending upward each side forms half
circle nclosng the pendent From the centre of the
bar, depending from link, is the corps badge in
gold and enamel above which, attached to the
bar itself is artistically designed scroll to re-
ceive the lettering when the name Of the fortunate
owner shall have been ascertained. The badge is
the work of Joseph X. Davidson, manu- featuring
jeweler, of Philadelphia and reflects great credit
not only upon him, but also upon THE NATIONAL
TRIBUNE which conceived the idea OF the gift and
has thus carried it into effect There will doubtless
be brisk competition among Grand Army men and
their friends tor the prize, each striving to secure
it for his or Aer particular candidate. The
winner, whoever he may be, will certainly not
cry out Save me from my triends!" when it is
presented to him.-NatioaaL Republican.

He cannot live until the morn,"
The surgeon softly said;
Before the coming Of the dawn
Your ceMrade will be dead"
They watched all night beside his cot,-
The brave men gathered there;
A tear was in each loving eye
And on each lip prayer.
No word they sPake, yet well | know
Their thoughts were far away;
They seemed to hear the bugles blow
The music of the fray.
They seemed to see that long line form,
That wild charge up the hill,
And then the thunder of the guns!
They felt their pulses thrill;
For there, right in the face of death,
Still pressing to the fore,
The youngest of the regiment
Its precious colors bore!
And on and up, until at last
They crowned the crest, where he
Almost alone of all was left
To sound the victory!
He cannot live until the MORN"
Yet once he raised his head
He waved his arm he tried to cheer:
The morning found him dead!

Pet Animals and Contagious Diseases.

The fact that pet animals can carry
contagion, and thus be the means Of
spreading fatal diseases, is not widely
known nor duly appreciated. We have
heard of authentic cases in which scarlet
fever was communicated from one per-
son to another by means of cat. Dr.
Hewitt, of Lake Superior, relates some
what similar instance in which diph-
liberia was communicated by the same
animal. He had noticed for several days
that his pet cat was suffering from an
enlargement of the glands of the neck;
he also remarked the same in other cats.
His cat found a resting place in the wall
behind the stove, and there died. The
day the animal was removed diphtheria,
in its most violent form, broke out in his
family, resulting in the death of two or
three of his children, the doctor himself
barely escaping with his life. Up to this
time the community was remarka bly,
free from sickness of any kind. 1t was
the start of a severe epidemic. We refer
to this subject in hopes that more facts
bearing upon it may be communicated
by our readers. Such facts are at pres
ent few. but little attention paid to the
matter would, no doubt, secure much
that would be of importance to compar-
alive and topreventive medicine.-Jour-
nal of ConDdratiUe Medicine and Medical
