CHOLERA INCUBATION.

McrObic incubation as q preventive
against cholera is attracting considerable at
tention, especially in Europe. The CORE
spondent of the New York Herald now in
Spain has already been inoculated, and he
informs that paper in recent cable dispatch
from Madrid that of 5000 cases subjected to
microbic incubation, not a single death has
occurred while the cases of two unfortunate
hospital patients "whe refused to be inocu.
lated and who were the on.y persons who
were afterward tackled by the chol-
era AID died." had greatly increased
con idence in DR.. Fenan's work.
A London cable dispatch says that the Lon
don newspapers devote much attention to
DR.. Ferran's system Of microbic inoculstion
at Valencia for cholera. They are nearly a
month behind the Herald with information
on the subject. The Pail Mall Gazette, how
ever, referring to the subject, says: "Dr.
Cameron, Member of Parliament, sends some
interesting figures to the Standard about the
experiments with incubation for cholera re-.
Gently made at Valencia, but, after all, sta.
tistcs in mass generally prove nothing.
What an individual wants to convince
him is to see the experiment for himself.
The public want TO see some one offer him.
self for incubation, and this Is exactly what
the correspondent of the New York Herald
has been doing on his countrymen's behalf.
That the proceeding really reflects credit on
the enterprise of the modern press may be
seen from his description of the symptoms
Here the Pail Mall Gazette quotes from the
Herald at length and concludes: journal
lists have always been the public's eyes and
ears, but the Herald's correspondent is one
of the first to have been the publics arms
and spine." The Sentinel published an &C
count Of the incubation of the Herald's
correspondent some two or three weeks ego.
THE real test will be-" as an English
authority says, when an epidemic of true
Asiatio cholera breaks out. If then it is
found that inoculated persons either escape
altogether or have the disease very mildly,
Dr.. Ferran will merit the reputation which
Jenner obtained in the last century"

General Grants Condition.

New YORK, May 22-There was some I'M
due irritation in General Grants throat last
night, attended by frequent attempts to clear
the surface or mucus. These efforts further
irritated the parts and the General being APP
prehensive OF a wakeful night, suggested
that DR.. Douglas remain through the night,
which he did. When the Doctor left this
morning he said the Generals apprehensions
proved groundless, for he slept at ii 80 last

until $50 this forenoon. At that time ne

NATIONAL UNITY AT LAST

Ore objection the Sentinel has urged
against the Republican rarty is that its
teachings tend to dsnationalize public SEN
timent. It's sole claim to merit has Teen
its war record. If it was convicted OF rob-
bling the people by its tariff, its reply was,
1--WE saved the Union" When its Freed
mans Savings Bank stole millions from the
freedmen, it justified itself by the plea, I'VE
emancipated the slaves" When its leaders
were detected In jobs by which they filched
millions from Southern State treasures and
from the National Treasury, the Republican
party said: THAT is nothing; we crushed
the rebellion" It's defences were all unfair,
for the achievements it claimed sole credit
for were largely due to Democratic
soldiery. If it had Grant, Sherman
and Logan in the field, the Democratic party
had Hancock, Slocum and Rosecrans.
The Republican party has maintained q
long ascendency by keeping alive sectional
animoaity over q war ended twenty years
ago. Meantime the Democratic party has
been pleading for the full fruits of the
triumph OF the Union armies, to.wit: The
complete restoration OF the Union, in spirit
as well es in letter. The Sentinel has claimed
that the ascendency of the Democracy to
power would secure this desired end.
Our claim is proven to have been we'll
founded. Here, within three months after
the inauguration OF the Democratic
administration, we are beyond the
breakers Of distrust and out upon the smooth
sea of national trust and sectional good will
for the first time in more than thirty years.
For it is a fact as apparent as that the Rs
public still exisls, that the North and South
are in closer bonds OF unity to day than at
any time since the springing up of sgitation
over the Kansas bill in 1850. With the con.
tinuation Of Democratic rule this fusion will
grow in frmness. The younger thinkers and
voters OF this country may be relied on to
countenance no party whose first and only
claim to preferment is its record in war
quarter century past. While all will join in
honoring the heroes of that war, we are best
fulfilling the mission for which they fought
when working with that party which looks
to the promotion of national unity and pros.
psrity.

A Double Tragedy.

A terrible tragedy came to light at - o'clock
yesterday, at No. 146 Orange street New Orleans
Upon the arrival of the officers the front door was
forced open, and upon bed lay the lifeless bodies
of Mrs Amelia Evans and Caspar Wengar. In
the right side of the womsn's head just above the
eye. was an ugly wound. The bullet which
caused the death of the man had entered his left
pie and passed completely through his head
While the autopsy on the bodies was being held,
Evans, The husband of the dead woman, walked
in. Hewas placed under arrest. Evans, who is a
policeman, said that he came home at his usual
hour in the morning and went in his wife's bed
room lie there SAW her and the man lying on
the bed dead. Just ss they were found. He pick
ed his child up, baby nine months old, and
walked out of the room, locking the door and
leaving the key in the lock. He called the ser.
want, gave the child to her, drank cup of coffee
and went out. When atked if he knew the dead
man he said he believed he was Casper Wenger, a
grocery clerk. The theory about the killing is
that Evans bad inkling of his wife's infdelity,
came home yesterday morning earlier than usual
and surprised them in bed, probably asleep
Drawing his revolver, he placed it first to Wen
gers head killing him. The shot awoke the
w>n,an, but tefore she could move ball was sent
crashing through her brain.
