to the defeat at second Bull Run"
The marching of the Pennsylva-
MIA militia to engage in the field Of
strife revived the dropping spirit OF
the grand old army of the Potomac
and inspired anew with valor the
Union soldiers, so when they en-
tered the battle they fought with
double the energy they displayed af-
ter the defeat before Richmand-
1t is probable that this new in
spiration impaired by the nearness
of the Pennsylvania militia saved
! General Mcclellan from disastrous
defeat at Antietam, for the General
publicly acknowledged to Governor
! Curtin, that the moral effect of the
nesruess Of the Psnnsylvsnis Militia
10 the Army Of the Potomac WAS
worth as much as a corps of men.
Our friend Of the TribuRe will have
to consider the soldier from broad
er stand point than the Qusrtermas-
ter's department.
That department is safe enough

ing comfortable quarters, but the
soldiers for comfortable quarters on
". have not even the merit of the
soldiers, who fought for glory, fame,
and fortune and are not to be com
pared in any way with the honest pa
trIots, who met the issues Of the
times on the field of battle.
Gen. Mcclellan was an able soldier.
but able as he was, he was no match for
Gen. Lee. The latter defeated him
whenever he met him, and would have
defeated him at Antietam had It not
been for the fact that the Confeder-
ate army was dispinted and nervous
under the reports of the patriotic
uprising of the militia in Pennsyl-
vania and other states, which cor
respondingly increased the fighting
spirit of McClellan's army. We re-
joiee to state to our quarter master
seargant friend of the Iribuse, that
We carried gun in the ranks of the
srmy OF $4,000 Pennsylvania Militia,
that without promise of pay or cloth

it encountered General Mcclellan s

Practical Temperance Work.

The London Temperance Hospital
has been established fourteen years
In that time alcoholic stimulants have
been resorted to in not more thar five
cases, and, IN these instances, the
results have proved no more success
ful than where remedies ordinarily
used in the hospital were employed
Up to the present time, over 10000
patients have been under treatment,
more than l., 600 of whom were, to "A
greater or less degree, addicted to
drink Many Of these, seeing the
g Dod effect of the treatment, have
become total sbstainers- The rate
of mortality has been only SIS per
cent. In fatal cases, there were fully
one fifth mere deaths among non
4bstainers than among teetotalers.

An Unused Medicinal Plant,

DR.. T. ). Landrey calls attention in Science
News to the great medicinal value Of plant
very common in the central and western
states, known Is hogweed, faIlow weed. and
named by the Miami Indians, pony tail.
Botanicaly it is the kuhnia eupatorioides, a
composite plant.
Having a botanical knowledge Of the plant,
DR.. Landrey tested il in cases Of severe acute
dysentery where optates and astringents seem
ed only TO aggravate the distress. An in
fusion mads by pouring boiling water on the
leeves-an ounce or more Of leaves 60 the pint
Of water, covering til nearly cool-was given
freely-almost without regard to quantity.
The effects were magical The pains ceased !;
no blood nor mucus were any longer observed
IN the Objections. Speedy recoverles were
the rule
According TO DR.. Landrey, this is the poor
mans panacea. It Gains a fever equal to
quintne and ects as an antiperiodic; cures g
colo as quickly as allspice. ginger and dos

so unpeasantly warm as cayenne pepper; a

No one can complain that there is too
much sa-neuess in the new stuffs, for in truth
the choice IS endless, and they are suited not
only to all tastes, but all purposes, and al
most any variation Of climate. The mixed
stripes On solid colored grounds make up
well and light stripes on dark tones Some
times in the same dress there are three yarie-
ties Of the same stuff, plaid, plain and striped,
and on some OF the newest plaids there Is a
woven motif, detached and scattered as
though some huge beetle had crawled over
IL, somewhat indistinct in form, as you
would see the insect In the cleaning Con
trasting cOlOrs appear like flames jerked
over the grounds, or in broken, irregular
lines, forming indlstinct and extended
checks Whatever the merits Of the new
woolens, they cannot be found fault with on
the score OF monotony.
The more dreSsy and costly autumn ma
teTials have wooden grounds with silk rib
bon stripes, having positive edge or wider
and more important stripes, which serve for
panels. They are as expensive as the best
silks, but only small quantity is required,
70 emphasize the woolen. Sometimes tbs
silk Is . mixture Of stripes and checks, and,
IN lieu OF stripes or checks, some show silk
caShnerienne patterns. There is an infinite
variety in this range Of material and all are
handsome. Another new thing is the dress

temperature, atmosphere and Strain pogn OF
body and mind, though commonly COM
oined, play their several parts IN
varying degrees OF activity. The influence
OF warm and close atmosphere as a cause Of
headache IS too well known to require more
than passing notice. The very general
prevalence Of this variety Of headache, how
ever, and its independence in many instances
OF any visiation OF atmosphere, teach Us TO
look for It's explanation in other causes. Tie
effort Of mind implied in long continued OBJ
servation, even though this does not involve
the strain Of study, has probably an eppreci-
able though secondary influence. Fatigue
certainly has an important share in its pro-
duction; but it is with most persons rather
fatigue OF muscle than Of brain. The main
tenance OF the upright posture during several
hours OF languid locomotiou; the varied and
frequent movements Of the head, commonly
IN an upward direction; and the similar and
equal restlessness Of eyes, whose focus
OF vision shifts at every turn, as a new
object presents itseR-form q. combined
series Of forces more powerful N this
respect than the sunlight and frequent
Changes OF mental interest and attention by
which they are accompanied. The muscular
strain implied in these movements is neces-
sarily very considerable; it affects more or
less, every member Of the body But the dis
tant localization Of the resulting ache has
probably much to do with the unusual &C
tVisy OF the cervical e1tensor and rotator
muscles. and Of the muscles which move the
eyebaL Whatever the minor influences at
work, therefore, there can be little doubt that
mere fatigue is primarily accountable for
this most general form OF headache, and that
rest and nourishment are the most reliable
antidotes- The utility Of stimuIants for this
purpose is necessarily temporary and decep-
tive. One Improvement on existing arrange
ments ought to be Of real assistance to the
suffering sight seer, If more generally intro
duced by responsible authorities. The com
parative scarcity OF seats in many places Of
amusement has often been noticed 1t would
be much TO the public advantage If this want
were suuplied
