A Cure by Wen. At a large hotel the not uncommon dilemmaaroseot there being only one room in the house vacant when two visitors required accommodation for the night. It was a double-bedded chamber, or was soon converted into such. and the two guests, who were both commercial travellers, agreed to share it. One of these gentlemen was a confirmed hypochondriac, and greatly alarmed his companion by waking him up in the middle of the night. gasping for breath. “Asth'tna.” he panted out, “ I am subject to these spasmodic attacks. Open the window quickly ; give me air!" Terrified beyond measure, the other jumped out of bed. But the room was pitchodark; he had no matches, he had forgotten the position of the window. "For heaven’s sake be quick !" gasped the invalid. “Give me more air, or 1 shall choke!” At length, by dint of groping wildly and upsetting half the furniture in the apartment. the window was found ; but it was an old-fashioned casement, and no haspor oatchwas to be discovered. ,,I-___3 LL- think in another moment I should have been dead! " And when he had sufliciently recovered and had expressed his heartfelt gratitude. he described the intense distress of these attacks and the length of time he had suffered from them. After a while both fell asleep again,devoutly thankful for the result. It was a warm summer night and they felt no inconvenience from the broken window. but when daylight relieved the pitch darkness of the night the window was found to be still entire 1 Had invisible glaziers been at work already, or was the episode of the past night only a dream ? No ; for the floor was still strewn with the broken glass.

A. common result of this is a little passage of arms between the Queen and the Prince of Wales at this moment. The Duke of Saxe-Coburg died two or three days ago, just when the Goodwood races were in full swing, and ‘ when the Prince of Wales was enjoying ‘ himself very much indeed at the mansion of the Duke of Richmond. Instantly the Queen telegraphed to the Prince desiring him to return to London. The Prince sent back word that he could weep just as freely for the departed second cousin at Good- wood as in Marlhorough house. The Queen insisted on his not going to the races. The Prince replied that he must. whereupon the Queen. in a great rage, telegraphed positive orders to the Duke of Richmond not to allow any dancing at Goodwood house during the races. Thus the Prince goes to the races in the daytime, but has to content himselt without tripping the ‘par- ticnlarly light and fantastic toe which he" loves to wield when any fair dames are‘ about. I now hear that he will go to Cowea next week, but the news apex-e have been asked not to alln e to his presence. as he intends to be at the regatta almost incognito.

The lynching was most carefully done after the gravest consideration. and was the result of a slowly formed determination on the part of the best citizens of the country to at once rid the community 01 a set of outlaws who have long been ascurce of terror. and to summarily end border ruflianism in this part of Texas. The eight men lynched were not only rufllans of the most danger- ‘oue character. but they had carried their bloody insolence so tar as to make it worth an oflicial’s life to execute the law against any one belonging to the gang. The imme~ diate occasion of Tuesday's wholesale lynch- ing was an attempt on the part of the i desperadoes to assassinate Sheriff George Michel for interfering with the attempted escape from jail of O. L. Delno, a noted criminal. ,When the design had been frustrated, the sheriff was given to under- stand that Delno and a number of outlaws associated with him “ would be even with him yet," as they termed it. and be. there- fore, took precautions to protect himself from surprise. The ruflians, being afraid to make an open attack upon Michel, gotu a sham fight in the town, which the eheri was called out to suppress. d in the Melee he was made a target of an dangerously wounded.’ He fell to the ground. bleeding allover his body, pierced with numberless large shot. Believin their work done, the outlaws fled an made good their escape. The posse who accompanied Michel carried him back to the jail where be yet lies unconscious. News of‘ the iattempted assassination spread like wild. - :_ :_A:......L:nn “Viva-yuan. Mwâ€".__-- - __ fire, and the town rose up‘in indignation. A public meeting was held. and resolutions were unanimously adopbd to lynch every member of the Delnc gang. A committee of one hundred and fifty citizens was appointed to carry out the resolution. Alter scouring the country for several days all the deeperedoee implicated in the attempt on Michel’s life were secured. On Tuesday morning early four of the negroes ,, L- _ _.-LI:.. “‘nnn .L uvauw: new- u-..â€" v were captured and taken to a public place and there shot dead without apreliminary. Soon after the shooting of these four,Bobt. Garcon, black, another of the despera- does, and high in the confidence of the leaders of the gang, was caught and hung to the limb of a tree. Two other of the desperadoee, Delno and Charles Garcon, made an attempt to escape, when a general fire was opened upon them and they both fell dead. each pierced through and through with bullets. Their bloody bodies were left lying in the road just where they fell, and the committee then went back to the jail and gave their attention to 0.1... Delno. They took him out for the purpose of stringing him up also. Some one in the crowd then made a speech, in which, after saying that, as all the others of the gang had been put out of the world without any _cer_‘emonyz there had been .u-.. u lvuvu‘ "4 no form of law observed, he sug- gested that Delno be properly arraigned before Judge Lynch. sitting in a regular Kangaroo court. The suggestion was agreed to, and Delno was formally arraigned before the court and asked if he could give any satis- factory reason to the citizens of Orange why he should any longer be detained from the company of his friends. As he could not. a rope was put around his neck, he was dragged down the street to a telegraph pole, and quickly hanged, and his body was left swingin in the air. Not a sing e expression of sympathy was heard during the whole excitement for any one of the men executed. The committee after finishing its work passed resolutions “ congratulatin the community upon hav- ing been ex itiously rid of a band of murderers and outlaws without any of the exasperating delays of pettifogging, and upon the prospect of more peaceable times \ in the future." and then_dispe_rse‘d. It is impossible to describe the excite- ment throughout the country today. All business is suspended and everybody is in the street. A stranger would imagine that the whole population had turned out to join in some public jubilee. Several suspicious characters have disappeared during the excitement. Governor Roberts has by telegraph been solicited to send troops to Orange. He has replied that he must refuse until it becomes apparent to him that the local authorities are unequal to the situation, which, he says, does not appear now. Shipment of Horses. Messrs.

The objéotionstothis theory are numerous. There is no reason to believe that the local glaciers were capable of performing the work, and investigation has proved the folly of ascribing the immense erosion which forms the basis of Lake Erie to a small and local glacier. If the lake had been excavated in this manner, there ‘would have been evidence of the beds of drift around the {south_ end of the lake. Finally, no local glaciers oould‘ be formed unless the lake bed had pro-7 viously existed much in the same shape and form. Although this seems at variance with the opinions of geologists it seems to be the necessary outcome of the facts, and the only alternative is to ascribe the forma- tion of the lake bed to the action of an ancient river flowing through that region in pro-glacial times. Lakes Erie and Ontario would then be a broad open valley. worn out where the rocks were soft and connected by deep channels where they were hard. The stream may have flowed and been navigable for a thousand miles, but none save the savage was there to navigate it, and on this river of the ancient continent it was an sated that a name be now bestowed, name y. that of the Ontario River.

It appears that short y alter her honey- moon the thorns rather than the roses of married life fell to her lot, and she became mood and sleepless. To remedy the latter symp m she used chloral in large quanw titres. Meanwhile her husband grew more} and more inattentive towards her, and would frequently be absent from home for ‘da s at a time. Quarrels were the inevit- ab 0 result. ' On Saturday afternoon last she had arranged to drive down to the railway station to meet a friend. Instead of the basket phaeton Mr. Dudley had brou ht round a covered buggy. To this re. Dudley‘objeoted, and t ough her husband pointed out that it threatened rain she refused to go except in a phaeton.

The bullet, which weighed a quarter of an ounce. crashed obliquely through her brain and came out at her left temple, striking the wall and falling on the floor. The unhappy woman was discovered with her lovely face blackened by the powder, her hair burned by the flash and her brains oozing from her head on the closet“ floor. Medical attend- ance was at once called in, but in vain. Mrs. Dudley showed no appearance of con- sciousness, and after lingering for seven hours in a state worse than death, died and gave no sign. â€"-The wife of Mr. G.

J ., says: On July 4th, Charley Snyder, a 10- ear-old boy, disappeared while the fami y were visiting in this city. He had been allowed to run into the street toplay, and when his mother started to go home he was missing. At first it was thought that he had been car- ried away by gypsies. a band of whom were in the neighborhood, and another boy, who was taken away by two men in a wagon, and who escaped from them near J obstown, stated that they had another boy with them whose clothing correspond with that worn by Charley. When no trace could be found in this direction the locks and long ponds in front of the city were searched. but ‘ unsuccessfully. Yesterday Mrs. Snyder I received information ,that on July 9th a man. accompanied by a boy answering to Charley’s description, had crossed the Delaware by the Shackamaxon street ferry and entered a Beach street car. The boy seemed unwilling to go, and the man was urging him by threats. Pymmia is derived from two words, which mean pus in the blood. It is pro- duced by the taking up of ichorous pus into the circulation, and carrying it until it is lodged in some of the smaller capillaries, when it results in abscesses. The principal symptoms are high fever, with remissions well marked. This is accompanied by great- weakness, the patient exhibiting drowsiness and sleeping the greater portion of the time. The skin has a peculiar yellow tint, and sometimes there is a profuse diarrhoea with abscesses in difierent parts of the body, particularly about the joints. The breath has a characteristic sweetish Luv u. vwvâ€" â€"... odor; the face is pale, and usually wears a drawn, anxious ‘look; the pulse is variable and often thread-like, with great waste and rapid prostration of the body. These symptoms are generally preceded by a rigor or chill. There are cases, however, that have been unaccompanied by a rigor. These are marked with great prostration and a low fever of an intermittent character. Gener- ally after a time the skin assumes the yel- low tint, and the peculiar odor of the breath may be noticed, but is sometimes absent in this form. The patient continues quiet, and his wound appears to beelean and sup- purating healthily. In each instance. how- 1 ever. the secondary stage of the disease is marked by abscesses on various parts of the body. particularly at the joints. Sap. ticaemia is first developed by feverâ€"some- times a low fever, but mostly a high one. with irregular remissions. It usually begins with a rigor or chill, and is accom- panied by a weakened condition of the patient, and is often delirious and some. times sufiers from profuse diarrhoea. THE SKELB’NI ll Till!
