On the Brink or Inc Genesee Falls

One Joint of the railroad bridge that
was recently washed away at Rnsh float
ed down the river until it struck the
eastern pier of the Main street bridge
over the Genesee. There it stuck fast
and old logs and trees became linked and
piled into the jam until it was necessary
to remove it to prevent damage to prop
erty in that vicinity. Four men under
took the job of removal. At first they
stretched rope across the river a few
feet above the piers. Then, by means
OF boat, they approached the pile OF
rubbish by padding along the eastern
shore of the river. At noon time they at
tempted to leave their work for dinner
With their boat and long pike pole they
started. They rowed out into the stream
intending to cross for the west shore.
When in the middle of the river the
swift current swept them down toward
the river pier. They saw their danger
and rapidly pulled for the leeway on the
eastern shore which was produced by
the pile of logs. In this manner they
escaped from their perilous position with
the loss of their pike pole. After hold
ing a consultation they cautiously rowed
along up the eastern shore until they
nearly reached the aqueduct. Then,
thinking they could get across before
the current would bear them away.
they pulled vigorously into the
middle of the stream. 1t
at once became apparent that they had
under estimated the force of the current,
for their boat was borne down rapidly
towards the bridge. In their frantic
efforts to change their course the boat
careened, and would have upset had not
each man made lunge for the other
side. In their hasty movements to save
capsizing both oars were lost, and then
the boat drifted at the mercy of the vio-
lent, swollen current. When the men
realized their utter helplessness they
called loudly for help, and people rushed
from all quarters to see what was the
matter. The back balconies of the
stores on the bridge were alive with a
motley crowd of men, boys and women
gazing in breathless horror upon the
drifting craft of humanity. By sheer
good luck, however, the boat struck one
of the piers of the bridge, which arrested
its rapid course until the men could
clutch to the planking, and then they
held fast until a rope was lowered to
them. Strong arms were at the other
end of the rope, and the men were tn us
rescued from their perilous position, for
if the boat had not struck the pier it Ger
tainly must have borne four men over
the falls to sure death. The excitement
of the spectators was so great that their
cheers, when the men were safely landed,
could have been heard in the woods
around the town.

A War incident.

The cry of "On to Richmond" awak-
ened no enthusiasm in the hearts of the
Third Ohio one day when they found
themselves en- route as prisoners OF war
for that famous capital. Nor were they
enthusiastic when they halted for the
night and prepared to sink supperless
into dreamland.
The Fifty-fourth Virginia regiment
was encamped near by, and some of the
men came down to have a look at the
Yanks.
Had you coffee?" asked one of blue
coat, stretched discomfortably on the
bank.
mot a SUD-" answered the other.
"Ain't you had any rations tonight"
"Only crumb or two, from the bot
toms of our haversacks."
This was told to the boys of the Fifty
fourth, and old Virginia hospitality
showed itself at once. The men soon
made their appearance with coffee-kettles,
corn bread and bacon, the best they had.
In few minutes the coffee was steaming,
the bacon cooked, and prisoners and
captors sat down together around the
camp fire, "like kinsmen true and broth.
ers tried" The hungry, grateful Yank-
ees ate with a relish such as no one can
appreciate unless he has been in a like
situation.
No wonder there was a warm spot in
every heart of the Third Ohio ever after
for the generous Fifty fourth.
A fresh slide in the magic lantern
gives another of those shifting war
pictures. In the distance is Mission
Ridge, which has just been stormed.
That long line of prisoners passing over
the ponfoon bridge and up the stony
mountain side is the Fifty-fourth Vir-
ginia. A soldier on duty at Kelly's
Ferry asked indifferently Of one Of the
prisoners as he passed.
What regiment is this?"
"The Fifty-fourth Virginia, >" was the
reply.
Instantly the loungers sprang to their
feet and rushed to the camp. "The
Fifty-fourth Virginia is ct the ferry,
they shouted. as they ran in and out
among the tents of the Third Ohio.
The Ohio boys were quickly In mo-
ton. Boxes from homo and all reserve
stores we're speedily ransacked. Coffee
and sugar, beef and canned peaches and
the best they had Of everything. was
freely brought forth. They remembered
gratefully their debt Of honor, and nobly
| they paid Il. II was the same old scene
over. with the shading reversed. For

The weather has been DO cloudy ever Since
December that Prof. Legare has not been able
to take observations on the sun till last Monday,
when 1t was found that the town clook was Ia
minutes slow. During the Christmas holidays
tho clock wds allowed TO run down once or
twice and the warping Of plank interfered
with its rate for while. This has been rene.
died aud tho clock is set again for the true
Walhalla time. It has been found that the
olook does not now vary moro than one or two
minutes in month, which shows 1t to be fine
time piece Prof. Legare informs US that he
can regulate 1t even closer than this If il is not
allowed to stop between tho observations.
Some persons think that we should keep the
Blue Ridge Railroad time, but we can see no
reason why Walhalla should bo guided by Wash
inglon or any other time than her own. 1t
would not be the correct thing to make the sun
get up half hour before his time in tho morn
ing and put on his night cap q half hour too
soon. The old gentleman makes his appearance

A SMALLPOX REMEDY.-At the time
of the small pox scare, in 1872, WHOM Bos.
ton wasso aorey afflicted, rccipo for q
remedy was twice published in the Hart
ford Times, and some ono in Boston obtain
ed copy accompanied by letter from the
edtoro who stated that there were people in
Hartford who could vouoh for its efficiency.
1t was said that person who tried it in
Ohio in case of continent smallpox,
where the doctor had little hope, found
that it saved tho pstient's life. Other
cases were then tried and every ono was
successful Tho remedy was suid to be
equally sure in scarlet fever, and to pre-
vent or cure the small pox, even though
the pittings we're filling. The recipe was
as follows:
"Sulphato of zinc, ono grain; foxglovc
(diyitalis,) one grain; half teas poonful of
sugar; when thoroughly mixed add four
ounces Of water. Take spoonful evory
hour Either disease will disappear in l2
hours. For child, smaller dosos, accord.
ing to age."
Of this recipe physician said:
"Whon Jenuer discovered cow pox in
England, tho world of scicnco hurled on
avalanche of fame upon his head; when
tic most scientific school Of medicine in
the world--that of Paris-published this
panacoa for small pox it passed unheeded.
It is as unfaiing as fate and conquors in
every instance. 1t is harmless when taken
by we'll persons It is remarkable that this
remedy should not be moro widely known, if
il is what it is claimed"

YELLOW FEYER.
The Situation at PensacO1a-The Plague
Spent at Brownsville.

PENSACOLA, FLA, November Eleven
new cases Of yellow fever are reported to-
day, but no deaths. The weather is still
very warm. Rumors of the existence Of
yellow fever at Milton, twenty-five miles
from Pensacola, have prevailed for some
time, but have been steadily denied by the
Board of Health at that place. There
has certainly been much serious sick
ness, but it is equally certain
that a most rigorous nonIutercourse
with Pensacola has prevailed. The Board
of Health has received from the National
Board check for SO, 12S, being something
more than the amount agreed to be paid for
epidemic expenses hv the National Board;
also $500 from the New York Maritime Ex-
change, through Edwin W. Adams, Chair
man, and other minor contri-
buttons. These donations give timely
and welcome relief to our board, upon
whom falls the bruut OF bearing the expenses
OF the pestilence. The total number OF
cases to date is 1888, and Of deaths 17S.
The marine arrivals reported to-day are the
fOllowing: Italian bark Feliciana Ferrarf
Captain Accinelli, from Rio de Janeiro; the
Austrian bark Jedanesti Jebrovaehi Capt.
Ku'zevich, from Marseiles via Gibraltar.
The last named vessel came in yesterday,
but anchored outside the bar, presuma-
bly, from fear Of yellow fever or apprehen-
sion OF quarantine. The British bark Wave
King, Captain Stewart Gould, which left
Pensacola on the Oath ultimo with yellow
fever on board, was towed in again yester-
day, having lost one man at sea and with
two sick on board.
BROWNSVILLE, TEXAS, November 1.-The
quarantine restrictions have been abolished
between here and Matsmoras. The steamer
Havies, from New Orleans, arrived at Bra
z0s to-day, the second to arrive since
the epidemic commenced. The gen
eral health is excellent. Business
is very dull. Regular mail communications
should be established at once. The law in
Mexico abolishing export duty on money
went into effect to-day. This is a great re-
lief TO merchants, and is generally approved.
The weather is very hot.
