Collie.

The symptoms of collie, one of the
most fatal disease to horse, are
readily detected. The horse invaria-
bly, scrapes with bis fore feet, kicks
at the stomach and shifts about,
turns around, smells the floor, lies
down, rolls, remaining tor a time on
his back, and bresthes heavily
throughout. Alta recent meeting of
the London Farmers Club, relief
and sure cure was presented by q
gentleman who has bean all his life
among horses. When the horse,
shows the symptoms of an attack of
collie, apply at once horse cloth or
wooden rug, wrung out of boiling
water, to the stomach and to the sides
and cover with another couple of
clothes to retain the heat. As they
cool, renew the cloths as often az
nsedful. A large bran poultice, as
hot as can be borne, is equally effec-
tive, and retains the heat longer.

The FOllies OF Great Mem.

Tycho Brahe, the astronomer,
changed color and his legs shook un-
der him on meeting hare or fox.
DR.. johnson would never enter room
with his left foot foremost. If, by
mistake, il did get it foremost, he
would get back and place his right
foot foremost. Julius Caesar was al
most conYulsed by the sound of thun-
der, and always wanted to get into a
cellar or underground to escape the
noise. To Queen Elizabeth the sim
pie word "death" was full of horrors.
Talleyrand trembled and changed
color on hearing the same word
spoken. Marshal SAKE, who met and
overthrow opposing armies, fled and
screamed in terror at the sight of q
cat. Peter the Great could never be
persuaded to cross bridge; though
he tried to master the terror, he failed
to do so, and whenever he set foot on
one he would shrek out in distress
and agony. Byron would never help
any one to salt at the table, nor would
he be helped himself; if any of the
article happened to be split on the
table, he would jump up and leave
his meal unfinished.

The reports of Consul-General Badeau, at
Havana, to the National Board of Health,
indicate steady increase in the number of
yellow fever cases and Of deaths at Havana.
The increase in the number of deaths from
yellow fever for the week ended Saturday
last was seven over the previous week.
There is also a considerable number of
cases at Rio de Janeiro, and the reports to
the National Board of Health indicate an
average of rs deaths per week. The
southern ports on the Atlantic and the
gulf have all established rigid quarantines
earlier than usual this year on account of
the prevalence of the fever at Havana, and
the utmost care and precautiou will be
necessary to prevent the introduction Of
the disease in this country. The refuge

tablished in aid of the State and local au-
thorities, one off the coast of Georgia,
another at Ship Island, Miss, have been

Lively Railroad war at Rochester.

A few days ago the Delaware, Lackawan.
ma & Western Railroad Company obtained
an injunction restraining the Rochester &
its tracks over the Humphrey farm, strip
of land which the former had once intended
to utilize, but subsequently, abandoned.
The main track and several switches which
had been laid by the latter were then torn
up and replaced with Lackawanna rails.
On Sunday afternoon three hundred en-
ployes of the Rochester & Pittsburg Rail-
road, with the aid of five engines and
cables, ditched the cars of the Delaware,
Lackawanna & Western Company and re-
laid their track, which was again torn up
by the Lackawanna Company and again re-

BEN BuTTERwoRrH
Gives HIS Own Views of the Guber-
Material Question.

Hon. Ben Butterworth, of Ohio, arrived in
the city this morning and was captured in
Assistant Secretary News Office by Critic
reporter.
Arc you candidate for the guberna-
torial nomination, Major?" asked THE
CRITIC.
"I haven't said so.'
"You wouldn't throw the nomination
over your shoulder, would your"

ing for It,"

Michigan, to come over into your State

"I have seen that statement in the news
papers, but there is no truth in it. l be-
lieve, however, that did say, jocularly, to
Horr one day that in case / got the nomi-
nation, and that was not probable that the

pared an answer to the charges and will
present it Immediately upon the return of
the Secretary to the city. Mr.. Wicker de-
nies that he is, as alleged, a lukewarm Re-
publican, but on the contrary he asserts that
he is in every way loyal to
his party. He states that the men who are
fighting him are instigated through selfish
and vindictive motives. Secretary Folger
will give the case full hearing in few
days Congressman Bisbee, who until very
recently was a warm friend of Colonel
Wicker, and Judge Locke are leading the
fight. Colonel Wicker is backed by nearly
all the leading citizens of Key West.

Camp (irOuna Notes.

The most successful camp-meeting holden
in this grove for years, closed Sunday night.
The sermons preached have been unusually
able, the attendance has been good, harmony
has prevailed. and a considerable number
have stepped forward and upward from the
condition of convicted sinners to that of &C:
knowledged disciples of the Redeemer.
The presence of DIR. Cults on the grounds
Sunday called together an audience which
could not have fallen much short of 5000
people. Notwithstanding the presence of
this large number, the utmost good order
prevailed, and the services of the halt
dozen police on duty were scarcely needed.
The only exception noticed was that in which
large number Of well-dressed men took
possession of the women's meeting, and neg
lected to retire at the request of Mrs. DR..
Cults. 1t Is evident that on that occasion a
large rGmber of men forgot that they were
gentlemen.
More people .han ever before crossed the
river BY ferry, and an unusually large num-
Der came by rail and on the five steamers
which landed passengers near the station
A large number of invalids sought restor-
alton to health at the hands and through the
prayers of DIR. Cults 1t is yet too early to
announce results. During the morning and
most of the day Monday, people were busy
packing, and there was general exodus from
the camp ground. But few cottages are now
occupied, and before the week ends these al
so will be vacant. The brief vacations of
those who came here for few days, appear
to have resulted in gratifying results-tO
some physically, to others spiritually.
The trustees are again discussing the ad-
visibility of converting the present boarding
house into a stable, to be located outside the
gates and building a new boarding house or
hotel which shall better supply the needs of
the place. 1t is evident that some steps in
this direction must soon be taken, the
present accommodations are inadequate for
the demands. Some other changes also
contemplated, which if carried out, will add
to the attractiveness of this already beautiful
