-- ":1 drop yon a few hasty notes from far up'in
"Olt Ile4tucky." I have been on a short
visit to some parts of the famous blue-grass
, .
,regions, and now am under the shadow of
the outlying arm of the mountain. This
has long been a famous local • watering
-place;"the springs are in great faVor
with the Kentuckians and hundreds
flock here = during the proper season.
Now that they can be approached by the
Knoxville extension of the Louisville and
Nashville Railroad, they have become much
more accesaible and popular. I have been
over some portions or the new road which
' is designed to connect Louisville and South
Western Kentucky with East Tennessee
and Virginia. This will certainly Um° of/
the est roadd from tide-water tO the
Bon 1 4 ).
-West when completed. I am Bur
p • to find some opposition to the!road,
but trust this is only local and personal.
No improvement can certainly offer More
inducement to capitalists than this'. Itwill
penetrate eventhe 'finest mineral regions in.
the country. What will enterprising Penn
. sYlvanians think of carrying coal one thou
mad maei t when a superior quality of the
same mineral lies at their very doors? - Yet,
such ii the fad. I have seen Pittsburgh
coal at points even above this i
The Company are pushing 'forward the
road (Knoxville extension,) with considers
-
hie vigor. The track is laid 'within a few
miles of Mt. Vernon, the county seat of
Rock Castle county, and thence will be ex
tended to London, inLaurel county, as
speedily as practicable. The road is under
contract through Laurel. Some of the con
tractors are pushing their work with great
vigor. Mr. W. L. 'Hoblitzell, who built
some important sections on the main road,
also'on the Parkersburg branch of the Bah
timore and Ohio Railroad, is a heavy con
treetop here. Re drove during, the last
-Month a, -tunnel 110 feet, which is consid
ered a great feat; considering the character
of the geological formation.
Among the contractors here, I notice Mr.
Broadhead, a Pennsylvanian, who has been
in Kentucky several years.
With this road completed to some point
on the Virginia & Tennessee Railroad, di
reet communication will be had between I
the Ohio at the falls, and below with tide
water at Norfolk. The route must become
the most popular and successful from the'
east to the south-west. '
Kentucky needs roads and new settlers.
Her-vait deposits of mineral wealth must be
adeveloped; her great resources laid open for
her people. The large farms must be cut
'tip and emigrants invited. It is a fine field
for the energy, enterprise and capital of
Middle-State men. Pennsylvanians would be
delighted with the country and its advan
tages.
The soil is very fine—equal to the choicest
Washington county farms, to which there
is a manifest resemblance, outside of the
blue grass region. The climate is good,
healthy, well watered and in every respect
inviting, when the railroads shall have let
in the light which always follows the loco
-motive I Several important cross roads are
-contemplated—the Paducah, Danville,
and
others, but the Eastern line must be built
first. . OBSERVER.
The Paraguayan Conflict.
• The details of recent operations on the
'Parana river show that the Paraguayans
were not driven from the powerful fortifica
' lions of Humaita, but abandoned them for
.a ILO* arid still more powerful line of defen
sive works near the' mouth of the Tibicuari
river. , Before retiring, however, Lopez in
flicted a most murderous repulse upon the
Alliei. Marshal Caxias discovered, on the
• :25th of July, that the garrison were prepar
ing to leave, and he accordingly dispatched.
a heavy force to intercept them.
The Paraguayans 'kept' perfectly quiet
until the . Allies had got within almost 'EMl
shot range, ;when they opened a most sweep
. ing and destructive fire of grape and canis
ter,' _winch 'swept down entire regiments of
the advancing Columns and sent the sur
vivors fleeing back in confusion and dismay
- -to their lines.- Cathie- did not attempt a
• .riecondtime•to interfere with Lopez's plans.
'The latter withdreW, and on the 25th the
Allies Occupied Humaita, finding two hun
dred cannon spilmizr rendered useless, and
about a dozen wounded soldiers to hospital.
A few days before, the Paraguayans per
-formed one of those daring feats which have
distingnishe.d them in their Memorable de
fense and elicited the applause of the world.
Three hundred brave fellows 'Pushed boldly
out into the river in open canoes, and board
, -ed and captured, in the faze of a terrific fire
• of small arms, two of the Brazilian iron clads.
They'held them for some hours but were
• finally compelled to relinquish them, owing
to the severity of an artillery fire opened
•
'upon than'. front' Fort ".Taye: During the
tune of possession they, kept the surviving
- -crews of both' iron clads locked up in the
latches, _whither they had driven them.
• Later advices from Lonthin state that the
Allied army was on the march to lay siege
lo Lopez.% new line of defense in conjunc
tion with the fleet. His probable, however,
that the pluck3rParaguayan commander hits
made preparations to meet them. The whole
coziduct of- his- soldiers proves' uzimistaka
•:bly that , they partake of :all his valor and de
-termination' and do not look upon him as a
"tyrant.',' The occupation. of Humaita has
occasioned 'much rejoicing through Brazil,
the 'Argentine Republic and Uraguay,
though with it are mingled clamors for the
removal of Coates because of the previous
.dieastrous assault. -

. This pisisewort,hylnatitiltion is now fairly
established on -Second avenue, and begins
its present - course of lectures with greatly
increased advantages to the student. The
medical profession give the Women's Col
lege their hearty support and co-operation.
Its teachers are physicians of ability and
standing, and are connected with one or
other of the public hos - Pitals of the city. It
has a board of directors composed of the
leading professors from the other medical
schools. Its students will have - the same
freedom of access as those of the other
schools to the city dispensaries, hospitals
and public medidal charaties generally, and
will be treated;with equalrespeet.
The course of Iprofessicinal• instruction in
this college is longer, more thorough and
more practical tifan that which any other
medical college has attempted to give.
The lectures extend through three years,
and are progressive in their character ;
whereas in other women's colleges the term
is restricted to the legal minimum, and nom
inal attendance lifrequently accepted.
In the Second venue institution hygiene
is taught both practically and theoretically,
which is not the 'case in any other of oar
medical schools, though it is the basis not
only of prophylaotic medicine, but of much
diagnostic and 'general treatment. The
Women's Medical College of New York
has been for fourteen years receiving grad.
uates and students from other medical
schools for women,Tgiving them clinical in
struction, obtaining admission for them to
the hospitals and dispensaries, private class
es, tic., and thus it has formed connections
with the other professors and institutions
which enables it to educate its students in
side instead of outside the general current of
medical education.
The college has also accumulated an edu
cational fund, which it hopes to increase
still further, for the purpose of providing a
still fuller and more varied course of in -•
struction.—.N. Y. .Post.
TILE statements which have just been
published, of the survivors of the recent
wreck of the propellor Hippommpits in Lake
Michigan, give in detail the particulars of
the terrible catastrophe, the suffering of the
Survivors and the manner of their rescue.
The captain, C. R. Brown, says that they
had on board 7,000 baskets of peaches. That
when the wind began to increase the vessel
rolled badly. AI. 2:30 o'clock, finding no
water in her hold; he went on deck; and as
the rolling increased he called all hands and
ordered the peaches to be thrown overboard.
This order created great confusion among
the passengers, who immediately rushed on
deck. Of a sudden the vessel began to sink
rapidly, and before any freight was thrown
overboard the water began to pour in the
after gangway and through the engine
room. At the same time the vessel went
over on her port side and went down in less
than two minutes. Thelife-boat was cleared,
but amid the confusion it was swamped.
Two rafts were constructed of the spars and
floating rigging on which the survivors
clung, while the passengers and others of
the crew were crying for help and endeav
ofing to signal a schooner in the distance.
For two days and nights, without food, they
held to the rafts which they had managed to
fasten together, while the sea was constant
ly dashing over them. On the morning of
the third day, they were picked up by the
schooner Trio, when nearly exhausted, and
taken to Saugatuck, where they were, most
kindly cared for. Only fifteen are known
to have been saved out of a crew of twenty.
one and a large number of passengers.

EFIFITEDER. It is almost impossible to break off
from the use of tobacco by the mere exercise of the
will. Something is needed to assist nature in over
coming a habit so firmly rooted; with the help of the
preparation -there is not the least trouble. Hun
dreds have used It who are willing to bear witness
to the fact that ORTON'S PREPARATION com
pletely destroys the appetite for tobacco and leaves
the person as free from any desire for It, as before
he commenced its use. It Is perfectly Edna, and
harmless In all cases. The Preparation acts directly
upon the tame glands and secretions affected by to
boeco, and through these upon the blood, thorough
ly cleansing the poison of tobacco from the iiystem,
and thus allaying the unnatural cravings of tobacco.
