THAT DREAD DISEASE, DIPHTHERIA.
 That dread scourge, diphtheria, has made it's appearance and already num- bers it's first victim, the little son of Thomas Gerrity of Round Hill. Allan Anderson's youngest son is also very sick with it, but is now improving rapid ly. It's unusual prevalence in the sur rounding cities gives good grounds to fear it's appearance here, and every one should exercise extra precautions against it just now. It is disease of bad sani- tary origin, and often arises from the thawing of frozen slops thrown out on the ground during the winter, or from sink drains emptying on the surface near a house. At each visitation of these dis eases the question naturally arises, "Where is our board of health?' Echo answers, where?

The exhaustive and brilliant article on the career of Gen Benjamin F. Butler, printed on another page, will be perused with deep interest. His recent death calls his remarkable career once more vivldly to the public attention. That Butler was patriot at heart, even his enemies must admit, while perhaps in' clined to criticise him severely.
