Remedies For RattIesnake Bites-The
 Most Violent of POfsons.
 [Frorn Curiosities and Wonders of Serpent Life e1
 "To conceive of an antidote to snake poi son in the true sense of the term" Sir Jo- seph Fayrer explains "one must imagine 8 substance so subtle as to follow, overtake and neutralize the venom in the blood; one that shall have the power of counteracting and neutralizing the deadly influence it has ex- erted on the vital forces. Such a substance has still to be found and our present expert ence of the action of drugs does not lead to hopeful anticipation that we shall find it."
 With regard to the many drugs used in va rious countries for the cure of snake-bite, it is curious to note that as rule they are pro cured from the most deadly plants. As like cures like, so poison cures poison. Penny royal, says Charas, was held to the nose of a viper, who by turning and wriggling labored hard to avoid it, and in half an hours time was killed by it. This was in July, at which season these creatures are computed to be in the greatest vigor of their poison.
 Another drug which is poison to venom ous snake is tobacco, within the reach of most persons. This, among native remedies, has always been in favor, and we have heard of it's efficacy ever sincethe weed was known to Europeans. Various species of tobacco and it's allies are indigenous to most tropical countries, and probably were in use for both man and snake bites long before civilized na- tions took comfort in smoking Man carries more poison in his mouth than snake, said an old Virginian writer, alluding to nicotine He can poison rattlesnake more quickly than it can him. Nicholson states that it also rapidly affects a cobra, and he recom- mends it should you wish to destroy the

REPUBLICAN NOMINATIONS
 FOR PRESIDENT, JAMES G. BLAINE, of Maine.
 FOR VICE PRESIDENT, JOHN A. LOGAN, OfIIIfnots.
HENRY R. HARRVGNN.

It is pleasant to find among the delegates to the convention which is to be held to-day such a general kindly feeling towards the Hon. Henry B. Harrison of this city There has been no effort made to "push'' MT. Har- rison's nomination. None of his numerous friends have been asked to work for him. He has not even "authorized" anybody to say that he was candidate for the nomina tion He has not in any way sought it, nor does he now seek it. This is a rare attitude in politics nowadays, but it has it's merits MT. Harrison evidently believes that the peo- pie have not yet lost the power of choosing their own leaders, and he is content to let them do it.
 But notwithstanding the fact that no ennis saries of MT. Harrison have been going about the State seeking to pledge delegates to his support, not few delegates have come to the convention with the purpose of working for his nomination. They and the people who sent them know how fit he is to be governor of Connecticut They know of his unstained character, his high-mind- edness, his great ability, his learn ing and his knowledge of the affairs of the State. They know that he would adorn the office of governor and do much to add to the reputation of Connecticut. Therefore, without being "buttonholed" or 'fworked," they desire his nomination.
 We do not need to enlarge upon MT. Har- rison's fitness for the honor. This is freely admitted. In addition to this there are ex- cellent reasons why he should be nominated which can be spoken of without doing the other candidates any real or seeming injus- tice. It is very important this year that the State ticket should be the strongest that can be made up. All things considered, is not MT. Harrison the strongest man who can be nominated? Will he not receive the votes of most or all of the Independence Will not his vote in this city, the stronghold of the Democrats, be larges And will he not get the full Republican vote in all parts of the State? Will not his nomination harmo- nize the party when some other nomination would tend to disorganize it2
 We commend these questions to the candid consideration of the delegates, who by this time thoroughly understand the situation The Republicans of New Haven are not working against any of the other candidates and they do not unduly urge the nomination of MT. Harrison. Still, they are satisfied that his nomination would be the wisest thing the convention could do

 Legislation is pending in France on various points connected with artistic property which have been much debated of late. For instance, does the purchase of work of art carry with it, without any express stipulation, the right of reproduction? The courts have sometimes held that it does, but it is now proposed to legislate in a contrary sense The very ire quent forgeries of pictures in France, espe- cially of ''Corots," :" give greater interest to a second proposal, which is to treat the sale of a forged picture 8 misdemeanor, punish able by five years imprisonment. The third matter dealt with is copyright in photographs, which the French courts have sometimes chased with other works of art, and some times not. It is now proposed to protect the photographers, but not so thoroughly as other artists. Thus there is to be no copy right in photographs for five years; none will be protected unless copies of them have pre- yiously been deposited in some public office, and finally, in any case, only such photo graphs as 'fshow artistic worth' will be en- titled to the benefits of the act The report of the committee, in which these recom- mendations are made, does not say how the question of artistic merit is to be decided.

 MT. Edward c. Towne of Cambridge, Mass achusetts, an Independent who is not going to desert the Republican party this year, writes that after sixteen years of honest study, five and half years in Great Britain, he is compelled to the conclusion that free trade is the cry of arrant humbugs. ''In England, /" writes MT. Towne, free trade is mere selfish necessity so far as it has been adopted, and the English appeal to us to adopt it is based upon nothing but selfish ness. That selfishness is often brutal and angry; it is commonly contemptuous toward America and Americans; and only with a very few, indeed, is there such real friendli- ness as to have any moral value to us in re- turn for the immense boon that free trade would be to them"
 Paper made out of tobacco stems is one of the latest claimants for public at tention. The tobacco pulp, it is asserted, produces much stronger paper than wood at much smaller cost. Samples of tobacco paper made under unfavorable circumstances show comparatively few defects, and the strength is said to have been successfully tested by lifting hundred pound boy on single broad sheet. A great point in the manufacture of the pulp is the fact that only the ordinary machinery found in every paper mill is required rotary and grind ing machines while wood has to be skinned, strapped, relieved of knots and rotten parts and grated The average quality of wood used loses from sixty to eighty per cent in waste, and the most expensive chemical pro cess of reducing it to pulp brings the amount

 AnA1pine cragsman accounts for the acci- dents which have taken place in that region the present season by neglect of the pre- cautions which long experience has shown to be necessary. It is not till the end of July that it is comparatively safe to venture among the high Alps. The fresh snow which falls every year forms crust, the portion added to the permanent deposit being very slight This crust usually begins to melt at the beginning of May, and the process varies during the summer according to the amount of heat experienced. During this time the mountains are in slippery and treacherous condition, and due intimate knowledge of the state of the various peaks is essential to the safety of mountaineers, even in seasons much more favorable than the present for successful travel.
 General Mcclellan was asked if he thought that, on. the whole, the effect of army life had been demoralizing to those who partici- pated in it. By no means" he replied warmly "The point isn't susceptible Of proof or disproof, but have no manner of doubt that the ratio of drunkards is no great CT among veterans than among other men. There were thousands of the volunteers whose methods of life were hopelessly unsettled, and who wouldn't or couldn't return to any. sort of usefulness. But believe there were many more thousands on whom the experience had broadening, inspiriting, educating inf1u- ence, and who, consequently, emerged from the war better qualified than they would otherwise have been to accomplish something or other. think this is especially true of those who had rank above the mere private, though it might be only sergeantcy. The feeling of leadership and responsibility ren- dered them more disposed to go vigorously ahead in subsequent enterprises. No, no; it is mistake to say that the war was in that way demoralizing on the whole.''
