A Remedy for srnail-Pox.

An cfectuai remedy for small pox is said
to have been recently found by surgeon of
the British army in China. The mode of
treatment is as follows: When the proceed
ing fever is at its height. and just before the
eruption appears, t he chest is rubbed with
croton Gil and tartaric ointment. This causes
the whole of the eruption to apper. on that
part of the body, to the relief Of the rest.
1t also secures full and complete eruption
and thus prevents the disease from attacking
the internal organs. This is now the estab.
lished mode of treatment.

Death OF the Famous Cow EurOtas.

The death of the famous Jersey cow Eu-
retas, at MIR. A. B. Darlington's farm at Oar
lington, N. J., recalls this wonderful cows
record SIS butter producer, and the fabu-
lous prices at which her defendants have
been sold at public and private sales. Eu-
rotas (z,4s4, calved Aug. 10, 1871, bred
by K. M. Hoe, Morrisania, N. Y, by Ri
otter II (469), dam Europa (I76). When two
years old she became the property of Mr..
Darlington, and has since been prominent
feature at Valley Farm, at Darlington. The
fame Of Eurotas came with the astonishing
butter test that lasted through one year.
She gave IT'S pounds one ounce Of butter in
eleven months and six days and dropped a
hne calf within the year. Her seconl bull
calf, Pedro, sold for $40 900; another bull
calf, Michael Angelo, sold for the enormous
price ofsIs,5oo. To Eurotas and her de-
cenoants is due, in large measure, the popu
larity Of the Jerseys and the lively competi-
tien among breeders, which has resulted in
the many fine specimens that to-day exist in
this country, not only of the various strains
Of Jersey blood, but that of other breeds.

Accidentally shot.

Last Saturday afternoon, while passing
the McAllister ranch, about two and half
miles from Greenfield, Constable Daily no.
ticed that a stack of hay was on fire. On
going to the stack Mr.. Daily discovered that
man was lying beside the stack dead, with
a hole blown in his breast, a shotgun lying
alongside of him, and his clothes and the
hay burning. The man proved to be Henry
Atkins, a man whom Mr.. McAllister had
left in charge of the ranch, while he was in
California. Daily Immediately put out the
fire in the hay and in the mans clothes, and
returned to Greenfield to notify the coroner.
As near as can be learned Atkins had gone
to the haystack with a wagon to load hay
and carry 1t to the stock in the field. Coy
otes had been playing havoc on the ranch,
and Atkins took his gun 18th him, thinking
he might get shot at one. Arriving at the
haystack, he set the gun against the stack
and got on top to pitch off the hay. While
at work he saw a coyote and leaned down to
reach his gun, and while pulling it towards
him the gun was discharged, the charge of
shot entering Atkins breast. The man fell
from the stack and the discharge also set fire
to the hay, and had not Daily made the dis
covery just at the time he did the mans re.
mains would have been cremated. An in.
quest was held on the corpse and jury
rendered verdict to the effect that deceas.
eds name was Atkins, aged about 50 years,
and he came to his death from a gunshot
wound accidentally inflicted on himself
Mr.. Atkins was comparative stranger in the
Valley, having resided there only about six
months. 1t is not known whether or not he
has any friends or relatives in this country.
This is another warning to men who handle
shotguns, to always pull them out of wag-
on, through fence, or up haystack with
the muzzle towards them.

A Correction.

EDITORS HERALD - Since justice is the
chosen companion of truth, pray allow ME
to correct statement, (unadvi.e no
doubt), made by the editress of the 'Wom-
ans Department" of to-day's issue of your
paper. In an article upon 1.-THE Los Angeles
Conservatory of Music" she states that "It
was her pupils, indeed, who did the carving
upon the famous organ of the College of
Music of Cincinnati" referring to Mrs.
Myra E. Kinsey, who has charge Of the Art
Department of the Los Angeles Conserva-
tory. Not doubling Mrs. Kinsey's ability in
any way, please let me state that the carv-
ing upon the woodwork of the Gin
Of loye, performed by. Mrs. Kinsey,
pupils of the wood-carving department OF
the Cincinnati School of Design, as were
considered competent, under the 1ect
management of Benn Pitman, of Gin
cinnati, who was, is, and has always been
the head and teacher of that department..
The idea of carving the woodwork of the
big organ, (Which belongs in the Gin
cinnau Music Hall and to the city, and not
to the college OF Music," which was an
after thought and the outcome of the es-
tablishment of the splendid Music Hall,
building, etc., all of which are due to the
individual liberality of its citizens), was
originated by him, proposed by him to his
pupils and gladly executed by them. Hop.
ing that the above information may not be
considered untimely, I am very tru v,

GOD IN THE HEART.
An Interesting Sermon at st.
Paul,s Episcopal Church.

Rev. K. F. Birdsall delivered forcible
sermon to very large audience at his
church on Olive street yesterday morning,
taking for his text First Epistle of Peter, III,
Is: "But sanctify the Lord God in your
hearts; and be ready always to give an
answer to every man that asketh you a
reason of the hope that is In you, with meek
ness and fear.
The substance of the sermon was as fol-
lows; In the epistle we are to consider to-
day the will of God relative to the conduct
of His people in their religious life; and the
genuine consciousness which Christian
should feel is plainly laid down. 1t is the
desire of God that we should be holy, and
the means He has provided is to receive His
spirit, and by constant thought ana com
munion 10 mirror Him IN the heart, whlch,
in return, is reflected TO the worlH, making
the fruit by which He has promised a good
tree shall be known. To reach this desired
state, we must fully, know God
by having felt the divine pardon,
dom, goodness and sanctity of the Redeemer.
We must know him as he has lived and re-
vealed Himself and know Him as He will
appear in the future. 1t is one OF the most
natural qualities OF the human 70 iook td.t9 TO
there is one, who has not some oasis in the
unexplnred time untold. Even the atheist
in connection with the thought there is no
God will pause and picture some uncom-
prehensible being who he calls nature, per-
sonifies it and saves his own soul. These
fAnciful pictures painted on the misty
canvass which shuts out with sublime and
awe-inspiring silence all the grandure OF
the world to be, are as varied as the minds
of the individual who c0nceives them. In
many cases these pictures are mere fancies
and will vanish as the raindrops on the
sand, but with the Christian who has kept
the sanctity of the Lord pure in his heart
they are the shadow OF a substance, the
which is Cod. The end desirable is not at
tained by good works, by generous gifts, by
benevolence, kindness and other virtues
commanded. They must be attributes OF q
Christian, but must flow from heart made
holy by the in-dwelling of Christ. No
doubt many are resting their hope
on their charities, the adherence
to the sacred commandments, with the as
surance that the sanctity in the heart will
eventually follow; but this is by no means
the case. A life flowing from a heart right
with God, will as naturally follow in the
line of these virtues as water will seek and
find its level. "If man love me, he will
keep my commandments" "If a man love
ME and keep my commandments, / will
make my abode with him." "Abide in me-"
The Christian only knows how true are
these words 1t is possible for us to SO rev.
erence and honor God that everything in
life will be subordinate to the duties we owe
to Him; on the other hand if our hea ts are
opened to the world, the opposite will fol.
life, that which will buy immortal glory,
eternal bliss, life everlasting, we must con-
centrate our hopes where the bible puts
them, remem bering. that not good works,
but the sanctity of the Lord God in the heart
maketh the hope sue.

First Presbyterian Church.

Rev. RI. Pittblado, who is on his way
from Winnipeg to fill the pulpit of Calvary
Church in San Francisco, delivered an ela-
quent and impassioned sermon in the First
Presbyterian Church yesterday forenoon.
His snbject was taken from the last chapter
OF Revelations: "And behold, 1 come
quickly" He was not going to entertain
his hearers with a Second Advent sermon,
and attempt to predict when Christ should
come He might come at any time, and the
divine admonition was for every Christian
bridegroom was the duty aud the lesson.
Live according to the word, let the truths Of
the Bible govern the actions of men, and all
who were living in Christ would be. ready
for the coming and enter the New Jerusa-
lem. whose streets were of gold, and par
take of the living waters The Christian
who was by his life always ready for the
coming. who lived in Christ and according
to the Word, was he In whom the Son of God
was not only coming but already to come.
