Cure for Diphtheria.

Cure for Diphtheria.-The following
communion from ]. p. Armstrong to the
Marlborough G0zatte, giving remedy for
diphtheria, now so prevalent in the county,
will be found of interest TO our readers:
"ln your last issue you state that dph.
iberia prevailed in some parts of our county
With your assistance | will inform your
readers OF cure that has never failed when
properly administered. Diphtheria may be
known by milk-like whiteness on the in
side of the throat around the root of the
tongue. With the handle of spoon gently
press down the tongue 80 the root can be
seen, and with another spoon take as much
sulphur as will lay on dime, for an adult
less quantity for II child-and turn the
sulphur on the white place in the throat
One or two applications is all that is neces-
sary. BY taking a little sulphur into the
mouth once or twice a day persons are per-
lectly safe in going among diphtheria pa
tients"

for Agricultural and Building purposes.
During the busy Lime season of the
Spring it has heretofore been difficult for
Farmers to secure the Lime as they de-
sired it. We feel sure that our extern
sive works will remedy this, provided
tie Farmers wW send rs IN their orders
during he nert thirty days, so that we
can put them on file, to be filed as they
may wish. This we guarantee to do,
viz: To fill all orders on a notice OF AZ
hours, if the engagements are made with
us non by the Farmers, as suggested.
Whilst the freight from Martinsburg
will be slightly more than from Fred
erick county, this excess will be deduct
ed from Lime Bills. making the net cost
of Lime the same as from Frederick
county.
Soliciting liberal share of your pat
ronage, and guaranteeing satisfaction in
quality, and in every other particular,
we are, very respectfully.

Secretary Miller,s Explanation.

A. D. Miller, secretary of the Eureka Life AS
sociation, in explaining the relation of the COM
pany to the insurance frauds in Fayette county,
o., says that no one can take out a certificate on
a person without having an insurable interest in
that person. Mr.. Miller also says that the ar
rests made were brought about by his influence
and the frauds found out through his help. Mr..
Miller's showing OF the Eureka is not improved
by his admission that no beneficiary certificate
is required; that the person insured is not re-
CURED to make affidavit that he answered the
questions on the blanks truly, and that no in
vestigation is held at the time the application
for insurance is made. He also says the Eureka
takes risks for $1,000 for persons under eighty
years old and $4,000 for over eighty. The av-
erage age of the insured in this remarkable
company is seventy-two years. There are no
young people in it,

Fiat Justitia.

Charley Eckert was yesterday, by Jrdge
Pierce Norton, in the Criminal Court, ordered
to be taken to the House of Refuge. Mr.. Eckert,
an old and desperate criminal, was arrested for
stealing half a bushel of wheat from an l., B. &
W. freight car. No. 2 red is rated at 81. O3 a
bushel. Mr.. Eckert was whipped by his mother,
when she learned the state of affairs, and made
to return the wheat. MIR. Eckert is ten years
old, and will remain at the House of Refuge
until he is twenty-one, unless justice becomes
merciful, after five or six years have elapsed. and
relaxes her grip. Oh Judge, Judge, have you no
reeollections of days in auld lang syne, when 1t
was unsafe for apples to hang too near the fence
or watermelons to stay out late at night Now,
If Eckert had stolen a whole bushel of wheat
by himself-but no, the prospect is too terrible.

A Riotous Party.

A salocn on louisiana street, where a party OF
six, three men and three girls, had gone after a
ball at Mozart Hall, was broken into early yes
terday morning by a special police officer, and
one of the girls was taken into custody on the
charge of drunkenness. The whole party had
been drinking and was somewhat intoxicated.
When the officer broke into the saloon, one of
the girls was being violently handled, and in the
confusion of the moment it is claimed that the
three men succeeded in getting away. The
other girls were permitted to go home. Upon
the evidence of the police officer yesterday
morning the girl who had been arrested was re-
leased from custody, his statement showing
that she had been less at fault than the
others in the party. The violation of the ''higher
law will doubtless be made the basis for any
prosecution there may be in the case.

nr. Erdman WIN Not Come.

The official letter of DIR. Erdman, declining
the call extended to him by the Tabernacle
Church, was read in prayer meeting last even
ing. When he left here last week he was so i'm
pressed with the extent and Importance OF the
field, and with the cordial unanimity and gener-
ous cooperation of the people here that, had he
been free to do SO, he would then have decided
to accept, but his people had made him promise
that he would not decide the matter till his re-
turn. He had served them nearly fifteen years,
and he felt in duty and affection bound to con-
slider their interests. On his return he found
the feeling 30 strong against severing the rela-
tions, the people pleading with him not to leave
them, that he was greatly perplexed. The ses-
sion of his church called a meeting of the con-
gregation for Gods guidance. By request he
stated his position, and the manifestation of in
terest on their part was 80 deep that he could
not disregard the feeling and Judgment of his
people or rnthlessly tear himself from them, and
feeling that his work there was not yet done,
he then decided to stay with them. These
things were set forth in his letter read last even
ing. He also said his heart had beed greatly
drawn to the people of the Tabernacle, who had
treated him most generously, and he would hold
them in atfectionate remembrance, and not
cease to pray that the Lord may speedily send
them a pastor and leader.
