THK HYPODEHMIO eYHINGE.

Morphine Under the Bkin -Experience of n

Victim of the Needle-nosed Syringe.

“How did I ever cure myself of the opium habit?” said a man a little more tnan thirty years of age, to a New's reporter this morning. “First, I’ll tell you how I got in the way of using the drug. I didn’t use opium itself, mind yoiR7t>p£jimphine, the active principleof opium. it hynedermically, under the slnaf thalr : is the morphine in .solution was injected into my arm. You never had inHsftnmaTory rheumatism, perhaps? Well I have, ao4v%heu a man has that, he’ll jump at anythidg~foFrelief. Five j ears ago 1 began tbp use of morphine by sub-cutaneous injection, ■sj-tfever usei the little needle-nosed syringe myself, but the soothing fluid was 'always injected by my physician. At first it was given me two or three limes a week under the skin of my arm, but it was no great while until the syiinge came to be used that often each day, and 1 became a slave to the drug. I was glccmy, despendent worthless except when under the itifluence of the opiate and when chnrged with it was quite as wort hie s as the rosy viaions,that followed its use were accompanied by a languor and listlessness that made me utterly averse to all exertion. My right arm (for that matter my left arm also) has been so closely punctured with holes from the syringe point that you couldn’t lay a quarter down on my arm ary where without touching two or three »ore places, for the morphine inflamed the

flesh wherever incision was made.”

“Women who use morphine hypodermically have the fluid injected under the knee cap. This is for the reason that they do not like to disgure their arms. Two months ago I determined to go to Hot Springs, Arkansas, to see if I couldn’t boil the morphine out of my system, and undertake some treatment that would cure me of the habit. I wai a slave tomorphine. It had completely e ie: - vated me, and ruined me for every* thing. Cured of rheumatism, I had acquired in its stead the opium disease, opiophagy, Dr. Charles E. Wright calls it, which was infinittly worse. When I left this city to go to Hot Springs my physician advised me to take a solution of morphine along with me and a hypodermic syringe. I did so, bat resolved not to use it until the last extremity. Do you know that the craving for liquor is not to be compared with the insatiate desire that a morphine user has for his nepeuthe? On the cars, on my way to the springs I suffered terribly, resolved not to use the opiate, but as' I neared my destination my sufferings increased. People on the cars who saw my writhings (for my limbs became contorted and my teeth grated together) thought me a mad man. Finally I could hold out no longer. With great difficulty I bared my arm and ' with unsteady hand jabbsd the syringe into it. I struck a vein, or an artery I don’t know which. The blood sjnirtcd across fhe car three or four women fainted and several men rushed forward, tbiliking it a suicide You can have no idea of the shock that went through me as the fluid entered the vein. Flash after flash of searing blinding light shot across my eyes, and from my heels to the top of my sptnal column went an electric like current that seemed to burn as it ran. In five minutes I fell myself again, that is my old morphine self, but 1 once more resolved to rid myself of the bondage even if my life went out in the effort When 1 got to the springs I put my hypodermic solution and the instrument aside and tvegan taking the baths. I don’t know whether they did me any good or not. I don’t know anything that occurred during the 1 next ten days, except that I suffered a tl ousand deaths. I had every pain and ache that almanac ever told of. Morphine is a drug that the entire system grows to and and assimilates with. If you deprive yourself of it after it has become necessary to you, you suffer the tortures of the damned. I had but one thought in my mir.d in all those terrible days—to free myself from the drug. I did it and thank God for it. Do you see my hair how gray it is? Not ore man in a thousand, I’ve been told, could do what I Lave done. Several physicians to whom I have told my experience look on me in wonder. They say my nerv e is unoqualed. That may be. I only know $50,000 wouldn’t hire me to undertake the experience of those ten

days again.”

STATE IfEWh.

The reunion of the 17thregiment#* take place at Martinsville September 11. Fort Wayne yesterday decided by a mMbrity of 2,544 to erect water works at the estimated cost of $270,000. More groanful news for the nationals. The wheat crop of Morgan county will not be less than 900.000 bushels. At present prices this is worth about $815,000. Dr. S. C. Wolf, a leading physician of Harrison county, residing at Elizabeth, had his right leg broken and was dangerously hurt yesterday bo the falling of his horse. Mr. Austin J. Kistler, of New Albany, while placing some lumber in his sawmill yesterday, was struck in the temple by a falling scantling and very dangerously hurt. A large barn belonging to Jacob Guile, living eight miles south of Shelbyville, was struck by lightning, yesterday noon, and entirely consumed. It contained a large amount of grain. At Sullivan on Monday night Hevey Cochran, a boy of about eleven years, was ran over by a heavy freight wagon, and breaking the left leg and right arm, and receiving other severe injuries. James A. Payton, residing in Franklin township, six mites from New Albany, was suffoca’ed by damp in a well he was clearing out late yesterday evening. He had been dead three hours before his body was recovered. Fifty coopers employed in several shops of Terre Haute struck yesterday v for au advance from eleven to thirteen cents on flourbarrels. In all but one shop the demand of the strikers was complied with, and work proceeded. Tie set-up shops of tbe car shops at Cambridge City, were burned last night. Loss, $10,000, covered by insurance. The night watchman was seriously burned. The fire will cause no interruption to the business of the company. The bouse of Miller Robinson, at Waldron and a large grain-house were struck by lightning, yesterday, and Joseph Brooks, who was working in the grain-house, wasstunued but not seriously injured. The damage to the house was small. William E. Schneider, Assistant weather observer at this station, has been transferred to tbe chief office at Washington, for active service. He will not leave until his successor is named. This change greatly facilitates his chances for a rapid promotion. Augustus Behmar, whose mother resides in Imiianapbiis, bad a foot badly crushed at Kokomo yesterday while attempting to cross the st:eet by climbing between two cars standing on the track. The train backed, catching bis foot between the draw heads. The announcement that a medical student of Laiayi tte is w earing a pair of slippers made from the skin of a deceased Cincinnati belle, has stirred up considerable excitement, and the names of the student and tbe belle or that of the liar are demanded for publication. EpLriam Davis, one of the most aged and respected citizens of Bartholomew county, died at his home a short distance from Columbus last Sunday, about seventy years of age. lie was one of the earliest settlers of the county, and may rightfully tile his claim as a pioneer. The storm of yesterday afternoon was particnlajlv severe at Shelbyville, Martinsville, and i ther points in that region. A large number of shade trees were ruined, hendreds of Boxes of corn laid flat, buddings unroofed, and property submerged. The rainfall was almost unprecedented. By the breaking of an axle of his wagon Wm. J. Walden, an old farmer living four miles east of Spencer, was thrown over a bank fifteen feet, and landed on a pile of stones with the wagon and load on top of him. When rescued it was found that one lee was broken in two places just above the ankle. Mrs. Nancy Cohoun, born in Abingtbn county, Virginia, in 1799, and removed to Vincennes soon after, died last Saturday in Bru< eville, Knox county, of old age Decent ed was a sister of General Robert M. Evaus, tbe founder of Evansville, and was one of tbe most esteemed and respected of citizens. A party of boys were fishing on Wild Cat river, several miles from Lafayette. They had an old revolver, which one of them thrust into the pocket of his overalls, muzzle upw ard. In some way the weapon was discharged, and the ball entered the forehead of Isaac Bushwa, a 12-year old boy, fatally injuring him. W itbin two weeks work will be resumed on the Evansville, Seymour and Lake Erie railroad from Boonville eastward, the road uow being completed and in operation from Evansville to Boonville. It is the intention to have the cars running to Huntingburg— the junction with the New Albany and St. Louis Air Line and Cincinnati and Bockport roads—by January 1, 1880. • In the great threshing contest in Knox county, test week, the contestants were Ephraim Gilm'-re, Clinton Simpson and Spencer Hollingsworth, all using steam threshers. The result of the one day’s threshing was as follows; Clinton Simpson’s machine, 1,550 bushels; Ephraim Gilmore’s machine, 1,414; Spencer Hollingsworth’s machine, 1,601 bushels. The wheat was taken by all the threshers from the stack.

Englisli Toadyism. [New York Sunday Dispatch.] The aristocracy of England continue to mourn over the death of Frince Napoleon, and it is staled that a site has been granted for a memorial to him in Westminster abbey. Hitherto that honor, outside of her own princes, was confined to England’s great men. W’hat did Prince Napoleon do that he should be thus honored: Nothing whatever worthy of note. All his title to the distinction is an accident of birth. He was the son of a perjured emperor, and the nobility of England honor bis memory and wear crape in 1hmentation of his fate. Toadyism is not confined to any one class in England. Bi-Metallism In Europe. In regard to the alleged movement in Europe in regard to bi-metallism, Horace White writes from Wiesbaden to the Nation that he finds no signs of it in England, Paris, or Germany. 1 be resolutions of tbe Liverpool chamber of commerce, he says, were promptly negatived in Manchester, and they nev/r produced a ripple in London. In Paris there is absolutely no silver raovemeatj except the agitation which M. Cernuschi keeps on foot. And not only has Germany no idea of changing her new' gold standard for tbe bi-metallic one, but such a change is deemed impossible. Beet Sugar Manufacture. Several Baltimore sugar merchants, who were crowded to the wall by treasury departs ment decisions in the Demerara controversy, are about to organize a company for the manufacture of beet sugar in that city. Last year a quantity of German sugar b«t seed whs obtained and planted this spring in different soils, in snrrounding countries. The result of the experiment has been thoroughly tatisfactory, the beets yielding twelve per cent «accbarine matter, about the same as Germany and France. American and English Patents. A writer in the London Builder complains that an English patent costs in government duties $125 within the first six months, then $250 within three years, then $500 within four more—total $875, levied in seven years for a patent during fourteen years, white a

Gloom7 Grain Prospects in Europe.

THE YELLOW FEVER. The Situation at Memphis, Memrhis, August 6—Eleven new cases were reported to the board of health this morning, five white andsix colored. Among the former are W. B. Richard*, Ed. Haines and Mrs. Loake. One death has occurred since last night, Elizabeth Fleetch, at 234 South street. The city remaius remarkably quiet. But one arrest during the past 24 hours. Rev. Father Fahey, Ed. Moon and the wife of Chief of Police Athey continue to improve. The weather is dear and warm. * [MemphLs special to Cincinnati Goaette.] The physicians’ report indicate a continued and more rapid spread of the disease, as eighteen new cases were placed on file at the office of the board of health during.the past twenty-four hours. The greater portion of the new cases being of the colored population, indicates that the negroes are paying dearly for their stubborn folly in not getting outside of the plague-infested city. The trouble about the relief for the poor took a new form to-day. At the meeting of the general committee of public safety today a communication from certain white citizens of Fort Pickering was presented, read, and referred to the committee on charity. The communication was signed by fortywhite residents of Fort Pickering. It goes on to state that an epidemic of yellow fever is impending in our midst, causing suspension of trade and business which will most probably prevail until fr< st; and that the board of health has ad-vn-ed citizens to leave the city and go to campp furnished by the general government; that the camp life would be fatal to many fentilies, many among them being advanced in tears and infirm; that a majority of them had the fever lost year, and enjoy an immunity from tbe same, according to medical opinion; that Fort Pickering is not proteced by the city authorities, and if they left, tlu ir property would be exposed to danger. Bence they deemed it their duty to remain Hid support one another; therefere, they res- lv< d that »h«y, the white citizens, decline to po into camp, bnt bad resolved to remain a* home, or organize themselves for mutual assrietr.nee and the enforcement of law and order in their vicinity during the period of the epidemic. That F. Dunn, G. B Clark, A. Wallace, S. Boyle. L. M. Byers, J. C.’Joyce, and Thomas Davidson, be appointed a committee to wait upon the Hon D. T. Porter, president of the board of fire and police : ommiseioners, and consult him upon tUe measure of asristance he might afford us, and to present their claims thereto. During the discussion on the petition, President Porter stated that they ought to go among the citizens and try to raise funds and make application for public charity to the world. There were but a few of them, and many of them were able to take care of themselves, and when they were unable to do that, then they could make application to the citizens of Memphis for aid. .Several numbers of the committee of safety stated that they would subscribe, as citizens, to the support of these petitioners, when it was needed.

Gloomy Grain Prospects in Germany, New York, August 6.—The Evening Post has a private letter from a gentleman in eastern Germany, who says there has been no summer, but rain nearly every day. “The thermometer in my room ranges 69 to 75 deg. In seme places harvesting has begun, but unless we have some warm dry weather soon much of the grain must rot in the fields. On our way recently to and from the mountains (two different routes) I observed that at least half of the wheat we passed was lying flat and tangled in the field, beaten down and broken by daily rain storms. All will be difficult to cut and some must rot or sprout before it can be secured. Adding to ibis the immense amount of grain and other food crops destroyed b> inundations lari mbnib, and it looks as if America would be called upon to feed’Germany as well as England and France next winter. The accounts from Russia are alpo not very encouraging. Of rye the crop wiil be below the average. In Fodoliaand Volhynia the yield of rye will be very short. In the government of Pultowa, noted for ita usually large yield of rye, the profpect is little tjetter. Although the baiveat will not equal that of a fairly good year, the outlook for wheat is slightly better in some of tbe government, but in Kief}’there are some fields that will scarcely repay the labor of harvesting. In ebon the entire yield of breadstuffs will-fall considerably beiow that of last year.

A Valuable Board. [Wuhiniton special to Cincinnati Gazette. | The government has at last found a use for tbe national board of health, and to-day, when Casey Young called upon the secretary of war for another supply of tenta for Memphis, the secretary suggested that it would t>e proper for the national board of health to make a requisition for them, and pay for them out of ita fund. This is one of tbe few practical uses to which the appropriation voit-d by congress has as yet been applied. The large force of clerks here and tbe force of medical inspector remaining abont in various sections of the country where the yellow fever does not exist are rapidly diminishing tbe funds of this new national institution. Some of tbe medical inspectors who have traveled in the north, instead of in the south,ffn the service of the board, visiting Philadelphia, New York, and as far as Boston, have received $10 a day and expenses, the latter amounting to $8, making a total par for yellow fever service in the northern stales of $18 a day.

Lonialaaa Bondholders. [Washington special to Cincinnati Enquires.] Holders of Louisiana bonds here and in N«w York propose to test in the federal courts the vhUditj of the recent Aftioa of the Louisiana constitutional *onverition, in re.Fj*ct to the ftate debt.' Under the constitution of 1874 the state debt was funded tn the existing bonds, and U was provided that five and a half mills of the Mate tax should be set apartannually for the payment of the seven per cent, interest then tt ade the rate. These bondholders any that that was a contract, and that the state can not by subsequent action impair its obligation without violating the constitution of the United States. Some officer of the state is to be rued ou tbe old bonds and the case carried to the supreme court for a decision.

Ther#probably has never h*eu a case be* rote our am ins tba« ever attracted more i m "*»*>* ’i” did Kisraoe forgery case. Vtithem Kfcrane. Jiving on Eighth street, east of Wain**, curried Jon the pork business! at the northeast corner of the canal and Vine street. Tbe gtet ol the matter was this: The steamer Msrriia Washington,Captain Cummias, commandcr, while on her way from this city to New Orleans, took .tee near Island 65, on the morning of Jan nary 14, 1«2. The boa; entirely consumed in three minutes’ time. The efffeera and crew all escaped except tlfe carpenter, hot a whole family, consisting of a man, his wife abdtwochildren, perished in the flames. Three other passengers were either burned to death or drowned, aud tbe boo ha and papers of the boat were lost. In the .summer of 1855, L. L. Filley, eon few* d on bis death bed that there had been bo merchandise shipped, on the Martha Wafairgton, and that the boat had been designedly set on fire to defraud the h.suraoce companies.' Sidney O. Burton, of Cleveland, had shipped a quantity of leather on tbe beat valued at $K5<». The insurance, companies refused to- pay Mr. Burton his in^uranee, claiming that the boat had been set- on fire. A charge of conspiring to barn the boat was brought against Wm. Kissane, L. L. Fillt-v, the captain’s brother, Eyman Cole, Alfred Nicholson, clerk of the boat, and several others. Ki»an* was tried at Lebanon aud afterward in this city, and wav convicted. The other compiraure were tried at Colnmbu*, but the jury bo ught in a verdict of oot guiltv. Burton then obtained a reqoisiti m from the governor of Arkansas, ana had all the parties arrested at the Walnut street house. This was two years alter the commi«sioa of the crime. They were hurried'into an oijuibus, heavily ironed, placed on board of a boat and taken to Helena, Arkansas,^ to be tried for murder and arson. They were confined in jail for three months, but were acqttified by the courts of Arkaams. , Kissatie, in order to raise money to fee his lawyeis, committed a forgery on tbe Chemical bank of New York. Burton becoming cognizant of that fact, had Kissane (frreried for forgery. While in custody of an officer, although ironed, he contrived to make his efcape from a railroad car bjr creep 1 ' tg through the window of the water closet. Some months after he was retaken, tried and sent to Sing Sing for two and a half yeara. He was pardoned by Governor Clark, of New York, in 1855. in the same vear and'month that Kiseane was pardoned, Sidney O. Burton died at Cleveland under very suspicious circumstances, and it was the prsrvaiiing opinion _ that he was poisoned by some of Kteeane’g friends, as a prior attempt had been made to take his life at a hotel in Columbus. Kiseane afterwards went to New Orleans, changed his name aud joined the tillibuster General William Walker. There was not ,the shadow of a doubt that this cruel conspiracy, by which eight valuable lives were lost, was planned by Kistaueto beat the insurance companies. There was a very heavy insurance on loth cargo and boat. Tbe boat was loaded with boxes containing stones and other rubbish. * c. Kissane was in this city, under an a^smned name, last week. He stopped at the Grand hotel.

D« Lesnep's Darien Canal. . (Waahlugton special.] The information brought first by cable tliat the shares in De Lessep’a Darien canal scheme are at a discount, and that there is not likely to be any demand for them in England, is confirmed by advices received by our government. It is doubtful whether any amount worth speaking of has been subscribed in this country to aid that schenfs. Th« more i hey study "the question the more are our officials convinced that a canal over the Nicarauguan route is the proper method of establishing communication between the two octar.s.

Roberts denied the charge, whereupon Keys called him a liar and drew a revolver aud shot him twice through the body, kilting him. He then mounted his horse and escaped. Roberts was over GO years old. while Keys is about 30 years old and addicted to drink.
