A CHOLERA REMEDY.

The New York Sun will long be
remembered throughout New York
and the New England States in con-
nection with what msOy consider to
be the best cholera medicine ever
prescribed. For more than forty
years what is known as "the Sun
cholera medicine" has stood the te st
of experience as the best remedy for
looseness of the bowels ever yet de-
vised. As was once vouched for By
the New York Journal of Commerce,
"No one who has this by him aud
takes it 10 time will ever have the
cholera" Even when no cholera is
anticipated, it is au excellent thing
for the ordinary summer complaints,
collie, dysentery, etc aud we have
TO hesitation in commencing it.
Here it is: Take equal parts of
tincture of cayenne, tincture of
opium, tincture of rhubsrb, essence
of peppermint aud spirits of camphor.
Mix we'll Dose, fifteen or twenty
drops in a wineglass of water, &C
cordiDg to age and violence of the
attack. Repeat every 10 or 20
minutes until relief is obtained

The bee has long been a type of
the industrious worker, but there
are few people who know how much
labor the sweet hoard of the hive
represents. Each head of clover
contains about sixty distinct flower
tubes, each of which contains a por>
ton of sugar not exceeding the five
hundredth part of a grain Some
patient apisrisn enthusiast, who has
watched their movements, concludes
that the proboscis of the bee must,
therefore, be Inserted into 500 Glow
er tubes before one grain Of sugar
can be obtained. There are 1900
grains in pound, and as honey con-
tsins three fourths of its weight of
dry sugar. each pound of honey rep,
resents $500, 900 clover tubes suck

Folks Heavy Sentence.

NASHVILLE, July 26.-The jury in
the case of ex-treasurer Polk brought
in verdict of guilty of embezzle-
ment, fixing the penalty at impris-
onment in the penitentiary for 20
years and imposing fine to the full
amount of the embezzlement. Mar.

most prominent families in Tennes.

adopted son of the late ex-Presiden,
Polk, and might have been the heir
of the Polk mansion, very valua-
bic piece of property that President
Polk provided in his will should GO
to the most deserving of the Polk
family whom the legislature should
select. The amount of Folks EN-.
bezzlement reaches about 100000
and if the portion of his sentence
which requires his restoration is en-
forced he will probably stay in Jail
all his life. At various times it has
been rumored that his friends were
willing to make good the amount Of
his thefts, in consideration of the
withdrawal of the criminal charges
against him, but nothing came OF

READING, July 24.-What is de-
signed to be the greatest improve
nIent III modern warfare, "The Ly-
man Haskell multicharge gun," was
finished at the Scott Foundry to-day.
Il has been undergoing construction
for over two years and tomorrow
will be shipped TO Sandy Hook,
where il will be tested in the pres
encs of leading officers of the army
and navy of the United States and
foreign countries. The last Congress
made a special appropriation for
this purpose. Since the invention OF
the cannon, four hundred years ago,
they have all been constructed on
the same principle of placing the
powder in the breech, and the Ly-
man Haskell is the first deviation.
The gun contains four pockets" un-
derneath, each of which holds IS
pounds of powder, while the breech
itself holds but eighteen pounds.
As The projectile starts from the
breech the force of this entire 100
pounds of powder is concentrated on
it, one pocket after another rapidly
discharging its contents.
The gun is % feet long and weighs
25 tons. 1t is rendered doubly strong
by a steel lining and it is thought
can hurl projectile through a solid
piece of iron two feet thick. 1t will
Shoot, so it is claimed, from twelve
to fifteen miles, and it is intended
for both harbor and naval defense.
The present gun was manufactured
at cost of over $4,000, and Mr..
Haskell has personally supervised
its construction. The projectiles
with which it is loaded weigh from
one hundred to one hundred and
fifty pounds. A company with a
large capital has been organized for
the manufacture of the gun. Ex-
Governor Cornell and ex-senator
Platt are some of the interested par
ties.

Hanged by q Mob.

ST PAUL, Mimi, July 26.-A
special dispatch from Miles City
Montana, says: A party of masked
men proceeded to the county Jail last.
night, overpowering the jailor and
seized a prisoner named Rigney
The mob took him about a mile and
hanged him to the projecting end
of a railroad tie over a culvert
Rigney had been lodged in Jail the
day before for disorderly conduct
and was believed to be a hard citi-
zen, being accused OF robbery and
other crimes. He was a bartender
in the saloon of the Cosmopolitan
theatre. Two hours after the hang.
ing the theatre was burned, together
with six other buildings, entailing a
loss of $4,000. 1t is generally believ-
ed that the fire was the work of an
incendiary in retaliation for the
hanging of Rigney.

xpert burglars.

New BLOOMFIELD, July 26.-By
the use of hammers, braces and CHS
els, stolen from the smith shop of
Henry Sheafer, robbers last night
forced an entrance into the extensive
general store of Frank Mortimer, of
this place. After abandoning a side
window, which refused to yield, the
robbers concentrated their efforts on
the main entrance door, which was
jimmied open. Having effected an
entrance the burglars devoted their
attention to the safe The combina-
ton readily yielded to the manipu-
lation of experts or some one famil
lar Herewith, and the safe was rob
bed of money, mostly trade dollars,
to the value of nearly four hundred
dollars. One package of fifty trade
dollars was overlooked. Ninety dol
lars of the stolen money was the
property of the telegraph company,
of which Mr.. Mortimer is the mana
ger. Checks to the value of between
thirty and forty dollars were also
taken. Pyment on them has been
stopped. No merchandise was dis
turbed. There is no clue to the rob-
hers

Horrible Loss of Life.

LONDON, July 29.--The town of
| Casamicciola, on the Ischea, near
! Naples, was almost entirely destroy
ed by an earthquake last night The
neighboring town on Tonic and Lac
ceameno were greatly damaged. 1t
is impossible, as yet, to give the
number of the dead. In the latest
accounts the number is estimated at
1000. The Hotel Piccola Sentinella
sank in the earth and buried many
of its inmates. Some of the inhabit-
ants of the town escaped to the sea
at the first shock and made their
way to Naples with the news of the
calamity. The centre of the area of
the shock was the same as that of
two years ago, but the radius was
wider. The shock was felt at sea,
and, according to some accounts,
even at Naples.
A gentleman who was staying at
the Hotel Piccola Sentinella, and who
escaped with his life, relates that he
only had time to secure some candles
for use in the darkness of the night.
The ground opened at many places,
while in other places there was no
movement. Water gushed out of
springs. Several boilers in the bath
ing house burst.
The excitement in Italy may be
imagined from the fact that there
were two thousand visitors in Ischia,
including wealthy Roman and Neap-
alitan families and several deputies,
who were taking the baths there.
The Naples correspondent OF the
Bersagiiere telegraphs: Il have just
returned from Ischia. Casamiccila,
Lacco and Forio have been destroy
ed. There were three of the most
hourishing communes on the island
which was half overthrown. The
road between the towns of Ischia
and Casamicciola is impossible"
The Prefect of Naples telegraphs that
the town of Casamicciola has ceased
to exist.
A person who lives near the now
ruined bathing establishment says
he escaped from the place amid
falling walls and balconies, the ter
rified people shouting to the
sea !"
The theatre, which was a wooden
structure, was literally torn open, al
lowing the audience to escape. At
Lacco, there are many dead and
wounded. At Forio the churches
were ruined, but no one was killed.
At Serrara fifteen were killed. The
troops have recovered the body of
Signor Fiorentini, perfect of Las
siri.

ment to bring the wounded from

Carey Killed.

| LONDON, July 30.-Intelligenct
has Just been received here thai
James Carey, the informer in the
Phoenix Park murder cases, was
shot dead yesterday on the steamer
Melrose, while she was between Cape
Town and Port Elizabeth. The deed
was committed by fellow passen-
ger named O'Donnell.
Carey was shot while landing from
the Melrose at Port Elizabeth. o.
Donnell, his slayer, is in custody
The Government had taken special
and expensive measures to protect
Carey.
O'Donnell took passage here by
steamship Kinfauns Castle, which
left Dartmouth on the 9th for Cape
Town, where she transferred her
passengers who were destined to
port Elizabeth, Natal and other coast
ports to steamship Melrose. The
report of the shooting of Carey caus-
ed intense excitement in the West
End of London and in the House of
Commons.
1t appears O'Donnell dogged
Carey from London. Both landed
in the steamer Kinfarn's Bastle. The
Daily Telegraph says the Govern
ment have little doupt that Carey
was followed from Dublin. They
believed that the Fenians had taken
the most elaborated measures to
prevent his escape. According to
the latest accounts the murder
was committed on the ocean.
Carey was not killed outright, but
died shortly after he was shot.
IO'Donnell surrendered quietly. He
was placed in irons and handed
over to the police when the Melrose
arrived at Port Elizabeth.
The news of Carey's death caus-
ed many exhibitions of delight in
the streets of Dulin A large crowd
gathered tonight in front of James
Carey's late residence, cheering
loudly because the informer had
been killed. The Dublin authori-
ties believe that O'Donneil is the
man implicated three years ago in
attempt to blow up the Mansion
House, in London, and who escap-
ed with Coleman to New York.
The Government selected Africa as
the safest place for Carey. 1t is
doubtful whether he knew his desti-
nation before sailing. 1t was not
revealed to the police who took him
from Dublin TO London.

THE Democrats in the Legislature

THE Democrats in the Legislature
are still playing at their game of
freeze out. They occupy precisely
the same position they did during
the regular session; they know abb
solutely, that the Republicans can
not be bulldozed into yielding to
their demands, and yet they persist
emily refuse to adjourn. The simple
truth is, they are in a hole, from
which they are vainly trying to wrig-
gle out. 1t was perfectly apparent
after struggling through protracted
session of one hundred and fifty
days, that an agreement on an APP
portionment of the State could not
be arrived at, but inflated with sud
denly acquired power, our youthful
Governor and his advisers, came to
the fool conclusion that they could
coerce the Legislature into comply
ing with their demand for more
members OF Congress and of the Sen
ate than they were entitled to, or
could keep if they had them, and
accordingly the present extra session
was called. A large element in this
scheme of force, was the idea that
the Independents had broken with
their party and could not return to
it, and forgetting apparently, that
the alleged cause of this breach, was
declared to be a desire to emanci-
pate themselves from boss rule,
they attempted TO whip them into
submission to the purely personal
government established by this Ad-
ministration. Preferring TO endure
the evils they haye-if there are any
to fleeing TO those they know not
of, the Independent Senators refuse
to be lashed into measures, and thus
the hope of success founded upon
expected assistance from them, has
vanished. Every day OF this extra
session is costing the tax payers over
three thousand dollars, the total so
far, amounts to many thousands,
and hoping against hope, with a bull
dog persistency that will die before
it lets go its grip, the Democrats re-
fuse to adjourn. They'll be id
if they do and be id if they don't.
They are in a hole of their own dig
ging, and they can't wriggle out. and
so the extra session drags aimlessly
and hopelessly along at a fearful cost
to the tax payers. Reckoning with
out the host. is prorerbially very
foolish experiment, and now the
Democrats know it from bitter ex-
perience. When at the next general
election, the tax payers audit the
bills for the expenses of this extra
session Of the Legislature, our Dem
ocratic brethren will ''hear something
dap."

Beheaded on the Rail

WILMINGTON, Del, July 26.-John
VI. Bennett, bricklayer, residing in
Trenton, was run over and killed by q
train on the Philadelphia, Whining,
ton and Baltimore Railroad early
this morning. He was discovered
by three men walking on the track
lying asleep on the ties, with his neck

direction and before the men could
render him aid the entire train passed
over him before it could be stopped.
The head was completely severed
from the trunk and his body consid'
erably mangled. A man answering
his description threw himself in
front of an approaching train on
Tuesday, but was rescued by an Off
Ger before his suicidal purpose had
been accomplished. The coroner'.

death.

A Murderer Hanged by n Mob.

DEs MoINEs, July 23.-Hardy,
the Polk City murderer, was taken
from Jail at Harland and hanged by
about fifty masked men about 3 am
The mob came from toward
Marine. They tied their horses in a
grove about mile from town and
came in regular order, with arms,
rope and sledges. They bound Jail
er Watkins and made his wife give
the keys. They then unlock
ed the cell where Hardy was and
took him out and hung him. While
he was hanging they shot him and
afterward took the body down and
threw it into the river. The mob
then dispersed quietly The Sheriff
recovered the body and an inquest
will be held.

Victims of a Tornado.

DETROIT, Michigan, July 25.-Re-
ports somewhat of an indefinite char
acter have been received that the lit
tie village of Onondaga, in the south
eastern part of Ingham county, was
almost entirely swept away by a
tornado, accompanied by a very
heavy rain-storm, which visited that
section on Monday. A woman
named HURLEY is reported to have
been killed. The buildings belong
ing to John Rush, two miles west of
Leslie, were demolished. A vast
amount of timberis reported to have
been thrown down. Fences were
leveled, and roads and fields were
strewn with limbs of trees which
were carried long distance. The
house of Mrs. Elizabeth Barlow was
picked up by the wind and torn to
pieces, and Mrs. Barlow was killed.
Rue Perrine's house, on the line be-
tween Eaton and Ingham counties,
was also wrecked. His wife was in
ju-ed.
