PRocToR's LAST WORK.

Prof. Richard A. Proctor's last lit. erary work was an article on plaques, having been inspired by the preva- fence of yellow fever in the south. A short time after the article was writ ten, it's able authors lite was ended by yellow fever. From the paper we take the following:
 The plague in England, described by Defoe as an eye- witness, though he was not an infant in 1865 and 1866 when 1t ragged, though terrible was not to be compared for severity with the plague of 1346, as many died, in- deed, perhaps more; but in a much larger population. It began in the autumn of 1865; but the cold winter of 1665-1666 greatly checked its rav- ages, and many hoped that it would altogether disappear. But with the early spring of 1866 deaths from the pestilence began to be announced, un- til presently it began to be recognized that the real attack had begun. The symptoms were akin to those observed during the plague of Florence, but sometimes death came even more rap- idly. In July two thousand died weekly, but by September the weekly number of deaths from the plague had rised to eight thousand. The dead were buried together in certain fields then suburban, now within London proper. There is one triangular space (not built on) between Brompton and Kensington, where large numbers were buried. Many of the dead were bur- jed in the fields at present occupied by the houses in Golden Square; and il was noticed that during the visitation of cholera in 1849 the disease seemed more malignant in that region; but whether this was due, as some sur. missed, to the opening of drains com- municating with the trenches il which the plague stricken were buried in 1865 and 1866, seems open to con. siderable question.
 From this enormous death-rate il will be seen that the mortality of ever our worst yellow fever visitations hal been comparatively insignificant. Thil country has never been visited by 6 great plague, at least, we have had nothing to compare with the plaguei of the old world. Gibbon estimates that during the thirty -years' plague (known as the Justinian plague) which spread from Persia to Gaul, nc less than one hundred millions of peo. pie died.

A Great Point Gained.

The good, if any, that nauseous medicines difficult of assimilation by the stomach do, is scarcely apprecia- ble. A great point of superiority gained in the chemical blending of the sterling pulmonic Scott's Emulsion of Cod Liver OH with the Hypophos- phites of Lime and Soda, is that the objectionable flavor of the oil in some preparations is completely got rid of in this. It is noticeable In reading the testimonials of physicians avouch- ing the remedial excellence of the article in Consumption, Bronchitis, Scrofula, Rheumatism, Anaemia, or poverty of the blood and the wasting diseases of childhood, that they almost invariably speak of the readiness with which it is swallowed and incorpo- rated by the system of invalids, whose feeble stomachs reject inferior articles of its class. The phosphorus contained in the salts mentioned is 6 we'll known auxiliary of strength, enriching an impoverished circulation. The oil, besides healing sore lungs, supplies ample fuel to the flickering lamp of vitality.

Found in a Cleft.

Henry Martin, who resides up in the direction of Antelope Basin, W. T., recently came across ghastly relic of early days which might we'll form the foundation for & tale of frontier life, says the Laramie Boomerang. He was out prospecting in @ wild and broken part of the country, where, in the midst of an elevated plateau, it is not uncommon to suddenly find one's self on the brink of crevasse or cleft in the rock, plunge down which would inevitably prove fatal. It was in examining one of these strange openings, formed during some tre- mendous convulsion of the earth ages ago, that MT. Martin saw pinned be- tween the adamantine walls, far below him, the whitened bones of a man and horse. He made a circuitous jour- ney around the hill, which brought him to where it was possible to enter the narrow gorge, and by difficult climbing over rugged powders to reach the skeletons. He cautiously picked his way through for distance of several hundred feet, and at leng tn reached the object which had excited his curiosity. There was no doubt, from the position of the animal and his rider, that they had plunged head long to their death, either while being pursued or in some mad ride which did not leave time to check themselves on the brink of the yawning chasm. The man must have been fully six feet in height and between fifty and sixty years of age, the latter suppo- sition being established by the fact that he had during life lost some of his teeth and the bone had grown over the cavities.
 The skull showed & rather intelli- gent forehead, the cheek bones were prominent and the general shape of the head indicated that the bones were those of 8 Mexican. This theory was confirmed by the further discovery of 6 rich Mexican sombrero, with heavy gold trimmings, all in good state of preservation.
 The skeleton was found in & perpen- dicular position, the head downward and tightly pinned between the two walls of rock. The rider had fallen from his steed, and the bones of the latter were similarly suspended, but twenty feet further up.
 In Q little basin at the foot of the gorge was discovered a copper plate about six inches square, and, strangest of all. plug of tobacco of apparently ancient manufacture, but seemingly as perfect as when the dead man had put 1t in his pocket to solace him in his lonely ride across the hills.

WHILE claiming California for the Dem

that he cannot tell how the tariff issue
will affect the vote of his state, because
no former election there has turned on
that question. In fsct, no man can tell
how 1t Will affect the vote Of any state in
which 1t has never been the leading issue
