A special 10 the Cincinnati Enquirer says
that Gen. Harrison recently wrote to a

that in no contingency would he accept a
nomination for vice-presldent; that if he
found he could not get the first place, he
would throw his strength TO the candidate
who would allow him his choice Of cabinet
positions. Perhaps Gen. Harrison forgot
when he wrote that letter that no repub-
lican will be elected President this year.

A native Georgian, Mr.. John U. Shorter,
comes in just now for much discussion in
Brooklyn and New York, and the proba.
bility is that his name will soon be "A famil-
lar one in many parts of the country. About
1865 Mr.. Shorter moved to Brooklyn, and,
like number of other brainy southerners
who went north, he soon became quite a
prominent citizen. He is now assistant dis
trict attorney of Brooklyn, and is said to
have an ambition to drop the assistant"
from his official title. The other night.
Ricard post Q}rooklyn), of the Grand Army
of tho Republic, decided to admit contrib
uting members, as other posts have, and
Mr.. Shorter was the first applicant FOR such
membership. He was elected, but on ac-
count of his being an exConfederate, the
action of tho post is strongly condemned.
and there is talk of bringing the matter be-
fore the national encampment in Columbus,
O., next September, with a view to having
Ricard posts charter taken away. The
New York press gives considerable promi-
nence 10 the matter, and the republican Or
gans of that city are not averSe TO getting

Hot Weather Suggestions.

A recent newspaper article by Dr. W. A.
Hammond, an eminent physician now re-
siding in Washington, contains some inter
esting Statements and useful hints concern
ing the diseases that appear in hot weather
and the methods Of preventing them. DIR.
Hammond gives prominence TO the sickness
occasioned in cities by eating fruits and
vegetables, both of which are wholesome if
in good condition and eaten in season, but
when they have been gathered before they
are matured and brought from a distance
and then kept on hand until they begin to
decay, they cause sickness, especially among
children
Another i'll TO which flesh is heir in sum
mer is what DR.. Hammond calls cheat fe-
yer" and as preventive of this he recon-
mends a visit to the country as soon as
warm weather sets in. Unfortunately
however, a big majority of the people in
cities cannot follow this suggestion, though
in city like Savannah most of them NAV
get an occasional Whit of fresh air at
Tybee, or in the suburbs. To these, and.
indeed, to all people, Dr. Hammond sug-
gests course which he believes will not
only place them in excellent condition to
withstand the ills of summer, but will i'm
prove their general health. 1t is this: Keep
cool in mind and body, get as much pure
and changed air as possible bathe fire.
quently in cool water, take moderate open
air exercise, attend to the digestive organs
by avoiding improper food, and drink moth
ing in the way Of alcoholic stimulants The
New York Wortd, in an article on the
same line, says: Eat and drink sonsiby,
avoid hurry and worry, take the shady side
of the street, shun alcohol aud the ther-
mometer, and if you can't keep cool, keep
as cool as you can
These suggestions possess a peculiar in
terest just now, and no doubt if people
would study and as nearly as possible adopt
them, they would spend pleasanter sum
mers and enjoy better general health.
