Mrs. Rufus Schoolcraft, of North Manchester, asked her servant-girl to give her a dose of quinine the other day. She gave her a dose of morphine instead, and on the 15th it was thought Mrs. Schoolcraft would die. The Board of County Commissioners of Gibson County have ordered the sum of $7,000 to be expended for the purpose of furnishing work to the families made destitute by the high waters.

AMass Temperance Convention of the Eighth District, consisting of Dearborn, Franklin, Fayette, Union, Wayne and Randolph Counties, is called to meet at Richmond, Nov. 28 and 29.

The following were the postal changes in Indiana during the week ending Oct. 16, 1875: Discontinued—Stephensport, Warrick County. Postmasters appointed--Indian Village, Noble County, Henry Mellinger; Knightstown, Henry County, John F. Bell; Reynolds, White County, John A. Batson; Solsberry, Green County, Thomas R. Cook; Whitleyville, Jackson County, A. W. Draper. In the case of Sumner et al. w. Beeler, on the 18th, the Supreme Court used the following language, which is of decided interest to those holding public positions: “Officersand others are liable for acts done under an unconstitutional act of the Legislature. All persons are presumed to know the law, and if they act under an unconstitutional enactment they do so at their peril and must bear the consequences.” The Supreme Court has just decided unconstitutional so much of the law of March 5, 1875, as requires Sheriff’s sale and other notices to be published in German newspapers. The court holds the law to be in conflict'with Sec. 22 and 23 of Art. IV. of the Constitution, requiring that all laws regulating the practice in courts must be uniform. It is thought this doctrine will apply to all legal notices of every kind. A runaway team hitched to a heavy road-wagon ran into a buggy, in on the 17th, in which were seated Gen. J. J. Reynolds and W. 8. Lingle, editor of the Lafayette Courier. The team apparently tried to jump over the buggy and came down upon it, crushing all to the ground. Gen. Reynolds was cut in the head and otherwise injured, but not seriously. Mr. Lingle was insensible for some hours and, at first, he was thought to be fatally injured, but he revived on the following day, and at last KtooiWbe was thought likely to reoorer.

Senator Christiancy on the Currency Question.

In the recent Hard-Money Convention at Detroit, Mich., a letter was read from United States Senator Christiancy, in which,' among other things, he said: I do not assert that it might not have done better when the greebacks were originally issued to have made them, or a certain amount of them, redeemable in bonds at a low rate of interest, and*,these again convertible into greenbacks at the option of the holders. Nor do I mean to say that this interconvertible plan might not even now be applied for a portion of our outstanding greenbacks, so far as it might be done consistently with their gradual withdrawal. and the diminution of their amount by actual payment and cancellation. But to adopt this interconvertible system in connection with, as a part of, the plan of expansion, and with the idea which necessarily goes with it of permanently dispensing with specie payments, even of interest, or “specie basis” of our circulation—thus making one promise of the Government, known to be utterly baseless when made, redeemable only in another promise of the same kind, with the expectation of making the business community place confidence in and receive such a paper currency for money, without rapid depreciation to the point of utter worthlessness—this is simply an attempt to make one falsehood exactly balance another, with the expectation of making the public trust in both as true. It is like the attempt to produce perpetual motion, and reminds me of the effort of a very learned gentleman I once knew, who owned a mill-site upon a small stream, which, except in extraordinary freshets, did not furnish water enough to run his mill. He, therefore, for the best of reasons, went in for inflation; and, as Providence refused to inflate the stream, except on extraordinary occasions, which did not furnish a steady power, he determined to make the stream inflate itself, and furnish a self-adjusting power, by the aid of an overshot wheel, which, after the water was used in turning the wheel, should again take it up by means of a pump attached to the shaft, and throw it back into the pond to run again over the wheel, and so on ad infinitum. But it is hardly necessary to say be failed, and found —though he never understood the mystery —that action and reaction were equals, and the friction was to be overcome besides. The stream would not inflate.

I knew also a highly-educated clergyman, who, having observed the hardship to which teams have to submit in drawing loaded wagons, and how much easier they were drawn without the weight of the loads, and that their weight rested upon the axle, in the kindness of his heart undertook to relieve the teams, and at the same time enable them to draw a much heavier load, to the great profit of the owners. His plan was to place upon each axle a tight air-box, filled with compressed air, and fitted with a pistonhead, with a piston-rod extending upward, upon which the wagon-body with all its load would rest. The weight of the load, he reasoned, no longer rested upon the axle, but only the air-box, and the air was tight and kept the weight of the load from the axle. Well, he constructed his wagon with the air-boxes, and: more lucky than the millowner, he succeeded in the inflation of his boxes with air—air, too, much more compressed than that generally nsed by the inflationists of our day, though it did notmake half the noise. But, unfortunately, and much to the astonishment of the good clergyman, while his air-boxes would inflate, the load would not, and, in spite of tho air, the whole weight of the load still insisted in working in some mysterious way through the air-box down on the axle, and the load was found to be heavier by just the weight of the air-boxes; hence the poor teams have had to plod along the old way, drawing their loads as best they could, till the present day. Both these were learned men. Their theories were beautiful in the abstract, and would have been highly successful in practice but for one thing: the Almighty in creating the world and fashioning mankind had adopted quite a different theory or plan of the laws by which “ men and things” were to be governed. This was the pole obstacle to the success of their theories, and for this they were not responsible. Both these men,, if living, would undoubtedly have been leading lights in the inflation world; but unfortunately they are in their graves. It is some consolation, however, to know they have left some worthy representatives behind. But for myself, believing the power of creating something or anything out of nothing is the prerogative of the Deity alone, whenever I see a man, however talented he may be generally, engaged in- such an attempt or in the invention of perpetual motion, I am compelled to believe there is a screw loose somewhere, and that upon this particular subject he is insane; and so, for the like reasons, I am compelled to think of those inflationists who really believe the truth of their professed theories—and that there are some I have no doubt. But one thing I do not hesitate to say, with the best light I have been able to obtain of their plans and theories—and I have read great numbers of their speeches and pamphlets—either they are insane upon this subject or 1 am; and, if I am, it is some comfort to find that the delusion under which I am suffering is but the same which had taken possession of all the great statesmen and all the great authorities upon finance, from the period known as the dark ages down to the vety repent period when the national debt of the United. States began to press heavily upon the resources of the people, and ingenious and interested theorists began to cast about for some method of getting rid of the burden of this debt (as well as their own, sometimes) without paying, it, or even the interest upon it, in anvthinp- of real value.

Now, I am so old-fogy in my notions and opinions as to hold that, when an individual or nation is deeply in debt, the true and only honest way of getting rid of that burden is the plain, old-fashioned way of paying the debt in money where it was agreed to be paid in money, or in something of equal value and convertible into moneys and, if we cannot pay the whole at once or when due, then to pay the interest in the meantime, and the debt as fast as we can. If we have not the money to pay with, then the better plan is to go to work in any and every form of productive industries, producing values which will command the money, rather than to adopt the plan substantially followed by a large proportion of our people, of speculating out of each otherin purely fictitious values, like the two boys who shut themselves up in the same room for a week, and both got rich, or fancied they had got rich, by trading and retrading jackets, with certain offers of boot-money each way, which neitherever intended to pay. * * * To bring this letter within a readable compass I will say that I deem the views expressed by the present Secretary of the Treasury in his last annual report, under the head of “ Resumption,” substantially sound and statesmanlike. And, for the clearest and ablest exposition I have seen of the principles involved, and of the fallacies and absurdities of theinflation scheme in all its forma, I refer to the speech of the Hon. Carl Schurz, at Cincinnati, and his reply to the criticism of Mr. Wendell Phillips, in all of which I fully concur, an 4 which I should vainly attempt to equal.

HOUSEHOLD HINTS.

Blue Whitewash.—Dissolve one and a half pounds of bine vitriol in boiling water and add one pound of well-dissolved glue. Add-th is to whitewash, prepared with slaked lime in the usual manner, until the right shade is acquired. Put on two coats at right angles with each other. -•-• ;; * To drive away rats, an English journal gives the following recipe, which it says has proved very successful: Take some glass and powder with pestle and mortar, then mix with some lard into pills and drop into th® rat-holes. It will drive rats and mice out of the place; they die of decline. Thorn-Apple Jelly.—Gather thornapples after the frost has made them red and stew them with water enough to cover them; strain, and to a cup of juice use a cup of dry white sugar—granulated is best; boil about fifteen minutes and .try on the back of a silver spoon. This jelly is excellent.— Household. Pruns: Cake. —Flour three pounds, sugar half a pound, butter one pound, raisins two pounds, dried prunes one pound, chopped fine, eight eggs, one teacupful of yeast, one teacupful of cinnamon water, half ounce of pulverised cinnamon ; form into loaves and let it rise. Bake in a moderate oven one hour. In cases of a sudden jar, knock or jam of the hand or fingers, immediately after the blow press the injured part with the uninjured hand, say between the thumb and forefinger, and gradually let up on it It will nearly always remove the pain, and generally any swelling that might occur under the circumstances.— Scientific American.

There is an objection to the common way of boiling eggs which people do not understand. It is this: The white under three minutes’ rapid cooking becomes tough and indigestible while the yolk is left soft. When properly cooked eggs are done evenly through like any other food. This result may be attained by put ting the eggs into a dish with a cover, as a tin pail, and then pouring upon them boiling water, two quarts or more to a dozen eggs, and cover and set them away from the stove for fifteen minutes. The heat of the water cooks the eggs slowly and evenly and sufficiently and to a jellylike consistency, leaving the center or yolk harder than the white, and the egg tastes as much richer and nicer as a fresh egg is nicer than a stale egg, and no person will want to eat them boiled after having tried this method.— Rural New Yorker. Ts&LoMt of Life gives the following in reply to an inquiry for a recipe for Graham crackers: We answer with pleasure, and for the purpose have interviewed the cook who makes “ the sweetest ones that ever was.” Have some soft water, either cold or tepid, in a mixing dish, and sift nice meal slowly through the fingers into the water, stirring it until too stiff to manage with the spoon; then mold the dough on a board with the hands until it is about as stiff as for common biscuit. Roll it with a rolling-pin about threefourths of an inch thick, cut with a round cookie-cutter, and lay on a bakingtin, not greased but dusted with flour, so the cakes will not touch each other. Bake about thirty minutes in a pretty hot oven, making them sharp and crusty or tender, as preferred. Take them from the oven into a pan or bowl, and lay a napkin over them to steam awhile, then lay them in neat little piles on plates for the table. They are excellent and more popular in our private family than any other form of bread.

Husk the Corn Early.

In many portions of the West, where large quantities of corn are produced and husked from the stalks as they stand in the field, farmers are too much inclined to put off the work. This is a dangerous experiment. The experience of the past few months shows that in Minnesota, as elsewhere, violent wind and rain storms must be expected and guarded against. The days grow short, the weather cold, and the work of husking becomes a slow and tedious process. The stalks, also, are very apt to become broken down by heavy winds, and deep snows cover and bury them up. Besides, penetrating rains moisten the grain, rendering it liable to mold. It is obvious, therefore, that delays are dangerous in this important work. That the care of corn when harvested is an important matter many farmers have to learn by dear experience. Care should be taken not to make the pens too large. The policy of leaving the cribs unroofed is suicidal. If farmers would stop to think how much corn depreciates by exposure, both in weight and quality, they would certainly afford it some kind of shelter. If it even becomes bleached the weight is sadly diminished, and the shrinkage from this alone, to say nothing of wastage, is very noticeably greater than if properly dried and placed in close bins. Don’t work hard all summer, farmers, and then waste the product of your labors through negligence. “A sixpence saved is a shilling earned” applies in full force to your case.— St. Paul Pioneer-Press.

The Foot and Mouth Disease.

The contagious and destructive disease that has destroyed so many herds in England and on the Continent has again reached these shores, and several cases of what appears to be the genuine foot and mouth disease have appeared in Indiana, Kentucky and Missouri. If these cases are correctly reported no time should be lost in taking such preventive measures as are possible to prevent it spreading. Unfortunately, but little can be done, but unquestionably no precaution should be neglected. Even in England, where the small territory and uniform laws permit almost perfect Governmental supervision, it has been found impossible to establish sufficiently rigid quarantine, and in our own large area, under the many State codes, we may not hope to do as well. But we can do something and profit by the experience of our English cousins. The plague differs from those familiar to American stock-raisers, poisonous secre tions being continually given off from the head and feet and carried upon the feet of animals to other places. Even birds have been known to cany the contagion from one herd to another. Mr. Henry Reese, the distinguished veterinarian of England, gives the following advice in case of an attack:

“ The secretion of the nostrils and feet of an animal affected with the disease is so highly infectious that if a small quan tity of it be rubbed on tbe nostrils of a sound animal the disease is communicated in a few hours. So if the instant symptoms of the disease arc observed, the affected animal is isolated in some secure place and kept well littered down with straw, and the feet and nostrils are carefully cleaned night and morning with a solution of carbolic acid—-one part of acid to forty parts of water—it will effectually destroy all powers of infection and prevent the spread of the disease.” * A cooking mixture for the animals at tacked is composed of half pound salts, quarter ounce niter, quarter ounce ginger and three ounces gin in three pints of thin gruel for grown cattle—quarter of this dose to be given to sheep—and the nostrils to be cleansed three times a day with warm watef, and then to be washed out, by means of a syringe, with a solution of carbolic acid—one large tablespoonful of the acid to half a pint of warm water —after which, the head of the animal being raised, a tablespoonful of warm olive-oil may be poured into each nostril. The feet, after being cleansed, should also be washed with a stronger solution of carbolic acid, say one pint of acid to ten pints of water, and then smeared with an ointment of one part of tar to two of palm-oil. The animal, if possible, should be fed on green food, with a fair allowance of grain, and drink allowed only after each dressing.— N. Y. World.

“All Run Down.”

This is an expression that we hear from doctors when they are in doubt about the nature of the disease of their patients. The country seems to be filled with such cases, and they are trying first one remedy and then another, hoping in vain to find relief. They generally have the following symptoms: A general depression of spirits, with evil forebodings, a whirling sensation in the head when rising up suddenly, foul breath, with a bad taste in the mouth, especially in the morning, pain in the sides and back, urine scanty and high colored, frequently voided with difficulty, frequent headaches, a distressed feeling at the pit of the stomach, food affording no nourishment; The patient feels tired all the while, and sleep affords but little rest. After a time a dry, hacking cough sets in, followed after a time with expectoration, hands and feet cold and clammy at times, a general wasting of the body. In such cases we need a remedy that will act upon the liver, (kidneys, stomach and blood at the same time, and when we use such a remedy it affords relief. The best article for this purpose is the Shaker Extract of Roots, sola by A. J. White, 319 Pearl street, N. Y. Agents wanted. Schenck’s Pulmonic Syrup, for the Care of Consumption, Coughs and Colds. The great virtue of this medicine is that it ripens the matter and throws it out of the system, purifies the blood, and thus effects a cure. Schenck’s Sea Weed Tonic, for the Cure of Dyspepsia, Indigestion, etc. The Tonic produces a healthy action of the stomach, creating an appetite, forming chyle, and curing the most obstinate eases of indigestion. Schenck’s Mandrake Pnxs, for the Cure of Liver Complaint, etc. These pills are alterative and produce a healthy action on the liver without the least danger, as they are free from calomel, and yet more efficacious in restoring a healthy action of the liver. These remedies are a certain cure for Consumption, as the Pulmonic Syrup ripens the matter and Surifies the blood. The Mandrake Pills act upon le liver, create a healthy bile, and remove all diseases of the liver, often a cause of Consumption. The Sea Weed Tonic gives tone and strength to the stomach, makes a good digestion, and enables the organs to form good blood; and thus creates a healthy circulation of healthy blood. The combined action of these medicines, as thus explained, will cure every case of Consumption, if taken in time, and the use of the medicines persevered in. Dr. Schenck is professionally at his principal office, corner Sixth and Abch Sts., Philadelphia, every Monday, where all letters for advice must be addressed.
