The Case of an Old COIOred
Woman Who Is Applying
For a Pension.
Evansville Journal.


@. L. Roberts, Esq, has a client
who is applying for pension on the
ground of having lost her second hus-
band in the war. Other counselors
have lad her claim in hand, but so
far the woman has received nothing.
Squire Roberts now will press the
case. In the event of failure on the
ground mentioned, he would do we'll
to change the basis of the claim, and
urge the woman's history as an evil
dence of her deserts, for, according to
Napoleon's idea-that she is the
worthiest woman who bears the most
children-th the Squire S client has great
merit and deserves well of her coun-
try. She is colOred woman, and
gives the name Of Fanny Mckinney.
She claims to be the mother of twenty
three children--seventeen born of the
first marriage, Of which there were
five pairs of twins, and six of the
second marriage. One of her daugh-
ters is the mother Of twenty children,
ouu mas oClFC uO OluCldl uOJlCe as YET
that she intends to yield the palm to
the maternal score; another daughter
has sixteen children, another fourteen
and another thirteen, while her four
sons have twelve. This makes seventy
five grandchildren, and besides there
are thirty-one great grandchildren.
The old woman was sixty six years of
age on the 2lst of last April, and was
born and raised in Jessamine county,
KY, the property Of John w. Wash.
ington. She has resided in this city
since the date of her freedom. Her
soldier husband was lost on the Sui
tana during the war, when that boat,
with large number of troops on
board, was on her way up the Missis-
sippi. There we're no discharge papers
in the case, of course, and from this
fact has proceeded the old woman's
trouble in getting her dues.

TIE last Legislature Of Mississippi
passed an important act, entitled, An
act to protect crops in Bolivar, Tunica,
Coahoma, Washington and Quitman
counties for the year 1852, and to
enable the people Of those counties to
cultivate their lands in said year with
out fences" The penalties Tor allow
ing stock to 60 at large are quite
severe, and will no doubt be enforced,
so that the benefits Of the law may be
fairly tested. When they are once
realized there viii no doubt be de-
naHd for It's re.ensctment aud its ex-
tension to other counties. There is
no doubt that it is cheaper to fence in
stock than crops. The cost of fencing
is becoming more and more enormous
every year, and as there is a constant
improvement in the breeds Of stock,
people begin to realize that that which
is worth having is worth taking care
of. A no-fence law will be a great
step for many of the localities in the
South. We hope soon to see the ex-
pertinent in Tennessee.

Exhaustion from Heat and sun
stroke,
st. Louis Republican,


There is an important distinction
between heat exhaustion and heat
stroke, or as it is more commonly
called, sunstroke. Heat exhaustion
is produced by work or muscular ex-
ercise in a high temperature. The
body is usually cool, the skin moist or
wet with perspiration, the p Ilsc feeble
and the mind weak, but consciousness
is lot lost or is quickly restored. Heat
stroke is the sudden access of pro-
found unconsciousness by hot and
unusually dry skin. with rapid high
pulse and the muscular system often
convulsed. The treatment ofsunstroke
should be removal to as cool a spot as
possible, followed by douches of ice
water and rubbing the head and spine
With ice.
Neat exhaustion should be treated
DNsy by rest in a cool place and
mgboniul OF whisky with few drops
Paaudanum in it should be given.
v-ry mistake in distinguishing between
these two forms of attack is very like.
ly to result in disaster, as the treat.
ment Of the one is decidedly danger.
Gus for the other. Sunstroke Is much
the more serious Of tho two. It is
not alone excessive alcohol indulgence
that Drediaposes to its attacks, but
any kind Of excess or dissipation, es-
pecially in use of tobacco, often pro-
duces sunstroke. Anything that tends
to produce exhaustion Of the nervous
system is dangerous. but those who
preserve tranquility Of mind and a
healthy state Of the bodily organs,
need fear no degree of heat known in
this latitude,

A Princeas In Now YorIr.

The New York Herald says that the
Princess Olive Lubin, only child of
Faustin l., Emperor Of Hayti, arrived
here on Monday from Port Au Prince.
She is SO years of age and a widow.
Her husband was General Amitie
Lubin, and married the Princess
while her family and his own were in
exile, his family having adhered to the
Emperor even after his overthrow in
1859. The Emperor Faustin |. was
born a slave, but was freed by the
decree which freed all the slaves. He
took part in different Instructions,
and became commander of a division
ia the army. On March /, 1847, he was
elected President of the republic,
and began reign Of terror. He de.
clared himself Emperor in l849, under
the title Of Faustin l., and created a
nobility among the negroes. In 1859
he was overthrow and exiled. He
was recalled in 1867, and soon after
died. The Princess was educated
with great care, and speaks several
languages. She and her husband
spent several years in Europe, and
afterward lived at their country house
near Port Au Prince. The present
government, though Republican, has
restored mach of the estate of the late
Emperor. The Princess has received
from this source over 81 100000. She
is at present the guest of the Haytian
Consul, but will soon start on a tour
through the country.

nausea, biliousness, languor and ner-
vous debility; give tone and strength
to each organic function, by using
Browns Iron Bitters; then will you
experience a genial warmth and awak-
ening life in place of that dead feeling
Of decay; and dyspepsia, milky urine,
etc., no lenger undermine your oonsti-
tuition. Delay is dangerous.
