MEDICINE.

The Curious I~ngredfenfs Of One Of
Their M Prescriptions
The medical art in China is mys-
terious and empirical. The medi-
cal profession is regulated BY rules
almost the opposite Of those which
prevail 10 England. In China the
doctor receives q fixed salary AS long
as his patient 10 in good health. IL
the patient falls i'll the doctors pay
ia stopped until n cure is effected.
In England Q sick person usually
tries TO assist the doctor by explain
ing the symptoms OF his IA In
China this would be considered an
insult to the doctor. The doctor
may feel the patients pulse. ex-
anime the skin and look at bis
tongue, but he may ask no ques-
tions. He is then expected TO
diagnose the disease from which
the sick man is ailing and to pre-
scribe q remedy. The medicine pre-
scribed is usually very cheap and
very nasty; but some drugs are high
priced and there are certain precious
stones which are believed to be OF
wonderful efficacy In curing diseases
One of these expensive ingredients.
White and red coral, rubies or
iacinth, pearls. emeralds. musk,
with one or two earths in special
qualities, are crushed into powder
rolled into pills with gum and rose
water and coated with gold-leaf.
This unique medicine is reported to
be an infallible cure for smallpox,
measles, scarlet fever and all diseases
which arise from blood-poisoning
and break out in cutaneous erup-
tions. The strengthening properties
of the preparation are said to be
quite remarkable. The Jesuits, who
Aourished in China in the early part
of the present imperial dynasty,
affirm that they have seen mep
snatched from the last commissions
of death by its iudicious use.-

FATE OF THE SEASIDE RESORTS.
The Damage at Those Adjacent to
Philadelphia Very Heavy.

The Damage at Those Adjacent to
Philadelphia Very Heavy.
PHILADELPHIA, Sept. 1.-THE following
was received by messenger this afternoon
from the Associated Press correspondent at
Cape May: "What has proved to be the
greatest storm at Cape May for thirteen
years has about finished its destructiveness.
The damage to Cape May city will not ex-
ceed 81, 900.
At Mt Vernon settlement the breastwork, :,
board walk and beach drive are in a dilapi-
dated condition, and 50, 900 will not repair
the damage.
THE DAMAGE AT THE POINT.
cat Cape May Point $4,000 will not be
sufficient to put back wcat tho tides took
away yesterday and last night. The whole
beach drive is gone, as Is also the stea nboat
landing Carlton Hall is chopped in two.
About 300 feet of the board walk west of
the Grant Street station was broken away
last night. The railway along the ueach is
all out Of order and cannot be operated for
a week Taking everything in general the
damage is light"
GRAVE FEARS FOR OTHER PLACES.
Grave fears are entertained for Holly
Beach and Anglesea, those towns being
built on very fiat sands. The seas were 50
very high yesterday that the crews of life
saving stations No. 80 and 40 considered it
advisable TO abandon their buildings. The
crew of No. 80 station removed their appa-
ratus to the Stockt IN hotel lawn and the
men of crew No. 40 are quarte.ed in the
Mineral Spring hotel.
CUT OFF FROM COMMUNICATION.
All communication by railroad and tele-
graph between this city and Atlantic City
aud points north of there on the Atlantic
coast, Is still cut off, and nothing definite
can be learned as TO when news can be OBJ
tained of the condition of affairs at Atlantic
City, Sea Isle City. Barnegat, Beach Haven. !.
Seaside Park and other coast re-
Sorts The nearest points to Atlantic
City from which news has been received. to-
day are Pleasantville and Somers' Point,
both distant about five miles. The West
Jersey railroad track between Pleasantville
and Atlantic City is entirely covered by
water, and it is feared that much of it has
been washed away. The Camden and At
lantic and Reading railroads are in the
same condition.
THE BLOW AS BAD AS EVER.
News received at 2 o'clock from Pleasant
vile was to the effect that the storm is as
bad to-day as it has been at any time since
Sunday, and there are no indications of its
abatement. Communication between Som
ers' Point and Atlantic City is had by boat,
but the furious storm now raging renders
it impossible for a boat to run between
these places.
A dispatch received by General Manager
Pugh Of the Pennsylvania railroad to-day
| from Somers' Point, says that boatmen ar
irving there report that the tide has cut
through the beach in number Of plac es
across Absecon beach, between Longport
and Atlantic City, a distance of about five
| miles.
HOUSES WASHED AWAY.
At South Atlantic City three houses have
been washed away. The railroad running
