THE HYDROPHOBIA SCARE.
Interesting Lecture by DIR. sPitEkR
at New York.

New YORK, June l1.-Or. E. G..
Spi zka, the expert on insanity who
testiti d in the Guiteau trial that the
assassin was undoubtedly insane, read
paper las. night before the Medico
Legal Society on "The Attitude of
Legal Medicine vs. Hydrophobia."
be was listened to by many gentle
men eminent in law and physics. The
lecturer held that there was no cpl.
demic OF hydrophobia proven in New
York or vicinity, and that many deaths
have occurred from spurious hydro
phobia, known to the medical society
as lygophobia, and that these wers at
tributsbe to the agi tation of the sub
ject OF Pasteur's preventive inocua-
ton. To prevent 30 seiious and fatally
imaginary disease, the doctor ssid, it
is necessary to cultivate a healthy
public sen iment which viii flown
down the sgitstio of questions which
are Of q strictly SC en- ific character,
brought out by persons with no other
purpose than that Of creating a
sensation. All officers inhust-
ed with the preservation of
the public peace aud health
should be strictly taught that the only
way to discover rabies is by the in.
spection of competent veterinary
surgeon when the animal is alive.
Some persons who suppose that they
had the disease have recovered on
learning that the dogs which bit them
were alive and well. DR.. Spitzka op.
posed the establishment of the Pasteur
Institute, claiming that such an iusd-
tuition was unnecessary. He asserted
that one Of the incorporators of the
institute had contributed to the public
alarm by publishing fallacioUs autop.
sizes. The doctor undertook to prove
his statement by the production Of
four dogs that had been operated on.
Into two of these dogs the lectu' er
had introduced a portion of calls
brain, in another an emulsion Of
calls cud, and into the fourth a por-
ton OF the brain of man who bad
died of hydrophobia while under the
treatment of DR.. Kletchmsr Of Brook
Ign. The latter YVES the liveliest of
the lot. The brain of bull pup that
had been inoculated with calls brain
was laid bare. The other physicians
present Were asked il the dog that bit
Miss Morosini, for instance, had not
the same symptoms as had the dogs
here exhibited. The doctors admitted
that some Of the syn ptoms were SINH
lar, and that DR.. Spltzka's dogs were
certainly not mad.

THE BELFAST RIOTS.
Statement OF Reporter Regarding
the Fighting

BELFAST, June 11.-An Associated
main on The scene Of the riots at 5
o'clock this morning reported ss fol-
lows: 81 remained among the rioters
all night. The greatest damage in the
wsy of wrecking and footing vas done
along the Shank Hill and the York
roads. Tie fighting in both thor
oughfarfs was desperate aud Continu.
GUS. The mob was composed of the
lowest rufliaus. The bayonets of the
police had no terrors for them, and in
many cases / saw the mob in over
whelming numbers press against the
bayonets OF the police aud drive them
back. The only instances in which tl e
police drove the mob at all, so far as l
observed, were those 10 which the
officers in compact lines fred at close
range rapid volleys Of buckshot.
These the rioters could not stand
against, and they were driven back.
But even under such CALLING fire the
rioters would drop TO the pavemenis
and rush upon the police while they
were relosding. 1t is impossible to
describe the state of terror under
which the respectable Catholic people
OF Belfast ere now living in conJe.
QueDce of the prevalent auarcy OF
bigotry. The bravest of them hardly
dare TO venture out of doors in day
light even. / know that scores of peo-
pie were shot during last nights rios.
/ saw ten persons taken TO hospitals
this morning. 1t is feared that every
funeral of victim of the riots may
provoke fresh outbreak. The law
abiding citizens demand of the Gov
erHment the appointment of a special
commission to inquire into the causes
of the whole disorder"
Fighting of this kind, at such close
range as to be practically hard 10
hand, was continued until 2 o'clock
this morning, when twilight began to
dawn, and so many of the rioters dis,
appeared as TO leave the mob Of insult
fcient strength TO longer cope with
the armed police, who succe eded in
dispensing it.
My observation shows hat the mob
of last night was composed Of the
very scum OF Belfast. / saw members
of it throwing paving stones weighing
fifteen and twenty pounds l even
saw fiends hurting rocks at the ga liant
fremen who were imperiling their
lives in attempts to save dwellings
from destruction by incendiary fires
and the helpless inmates from hoIri-
BILE deaths. II anything else were
wanting to prove the character of the
mob, it would be furnished by the
dozens of ruffians l cav during the
night snesking away from tie wrecked
or burning buildings laden down with
loot.

Our Worst Enemies.

Next to our vices, are our fOllies. Among
them is the imperiling of future bodily com
fort, and the average tenure Of life to which
persons of moderately good constitutions are
presumably entitled, by imprudenco in eat
ing and drinking and the reckless use Of
drugs. II is one Of the happy capabilities OF
Hostettsr's Stomach Bitters that it can re-
pair damage thus inflicted. Whom the blood
is thin and watery, the bowels out of order,
the complexion and tongue both giving evil
deDce Of biliOusness, there is a necessity for
repairs upon the human tenement obvious
enough TO startle its pOssessOr. course of
the Buffers the abandonment of "drugging"
for relief and a commOn-Feuse diet and
mode of life-these will speedily produce a
change for the bett7r. What quinine for
fever and ague, and mercury for biliousne,s
and con tipatiOn won't do, the Bit'ers will.
1t also relieves rheumatism and neuralgia,
and inactivity of the kidneys.

MUNICH, June Ia deputation of
members Of the Bavaran Cabinet to.
day proceeded to Hohensch Sangan
Castle to pre-. emit a letter 20 the de-
posed King Ludwig from Prince Luit-
pold. They found the castle locked,
and they were not permitted by the
Kings Iickets to enter. The Ministry
subsequently sent force of gend-
armes to the c;stle to force an en-
trance for the purpose of releasing
Count Holstein, who, while visiting
the King last evening on Ministerial
business concerning the Regency, was
arrested by Ludwig's order and locked
up in the ca tie. Other gen darmes
have been detailed to preserve order
among the mountain people surrouud-
ing the cssile, the mount1ineers being
loyal adherents OF the King, and in a
dangerous temper because of the
States conduct toward him. King
Ludwig remains in the mCst absolute
sec.usiOn in his csst'e.
