That mysterious and unmauageable dis
ease, the grip, IS reappearing in Europe
and America this winter. and IS especially
prevalent in this vicinity. II IS a peculiar
ity OF this strange disease that one attack
only increases the chances of being AIKEN
with il again. aud the experience in such
cases is shat tie second attack is worse
than the frat. How 70 specifically guard
against the grip has not yet been explain
ed by medical science, which, 10 fact, has
made unsatisfactory progress il dealing
with the malady. As the causes Exist ID
climatic conditions one can at least min
imize the chances Of an attack by prudence
against exposure and by proper sanitary
precautions.

Private Nelson, Q Man With . Lineage,
 on Trial for His Life.

on Trial for His Life.
 NEW YORK, Dec. 11.-Private Hen derson l.. Nelson, Battery A, First Ar tillery, U. s. A., who killed Private John Lane, of Battery I, on the ram- parts at Fort Hamilton last spring, was yesterday placed on trial for his life in the United States Court in Brooklyn. The prisoner is a young man, and wore the army uniform. He is pale and thin, and it is said that his defence is insanity.
 Nelson claimed that he could trace his ancestry back to some of those hardy men who established the first English settlement at Jamestowon, Va, and accordingly 8 commi ssion was ap- pointed some time ago to go to Owens = Nelson's anteoedents. The commission has completed its labors, and reports that Nelson is a direct descendant of John Rolfe and Pocohontas.
 One of the sisters of John Randolph was married to the great grandfather of President Harrison. Another became the wife of President Jefferson's father. A third sister married Samuel Lewis, and daughter of Samuel Lewis mar ried Col. Bennett Anderson, whose granddaughter was the wife of Matthew Nelson, the grandfather of Henderson L. Nelson, who is now on trial for his life.
 A great deal of evidence was taken to show that some of the ancestors of the prisoner were insane, and this will be mainly relied upon by the defence.
 4 jury was obtained late yesterd ay afternoon, after which the court ad. journed until to-day.

 LONDON, Dec. 1.-The gale which set in yesterday has already done an i'm mense amount of damage. and has been attended with a number of fatalities. The storm is fully equal in violence to the two gales which recently prevailed along the English Channel and over Great Britain and Ireland.
 Reports are being received from all parts of the country, saying that the present gale is as severe as any of it's predecessors. Great trees have been torn up by the roots or broken in half by the force of the wind. Houses have been unroofed, chimneys blown down, outhouses demolished, and fences de- stroyed. A large number of cases are reported where persons have been seri- ously injured by being struck by falling bricks or tiles, or by being caught up by the gale and dashed against barbed wire fences and other Instructions.
 In the Channel the gale is blowing with great fury, and high sea is run ming. The Downs are filled with ves- sels of every description that have put in for shelter, and are riding at anchor, waiting for the gale to subside
