Rough, and Tumble Fight.
TIM Petersburg, Va., papers of Satur
day contain accounts of ayough and tum
ble ' fight between James H. Platt, the
newly•elected Congressman, from the
Second District of Virginia, and Joseph
B. Budd, a lawyer. Thetrouble com
menced in the Mayor's Court, where
Platt told Budd to "shut up his mouth."
Budd followed Platt to his office, and
as
asked an explanation. The Petersburg
1 dez tells the rest of the story: Mr..
l a
P tt asked Mr. Budd to walk up stairs
his office, and talk the matter over.
When they had entered the office, Mr.
P alt asked Mr. Budd what he had against
h m.
Mr. Budd answered: "Yon insulted
in, sir, in telling me to 'shut my month,'
while in the Mayor's Court this morn
ing."
Mr. Platt responded that he would do
so again under like'circumstances.
Mr. Budd responded that if he did, he
would beat him for it.
After some further conversation, Mr.
Platt proposed to settle the difficulty at
once by a fight in his office, saying to Mr.
Budd, "I have no arms, sir, and presume
you have none." Mr. Budd promptly
acceded to the proposal, informing Mr
Platt that be was not armed. Words en
sued, during. which Mr. Platt used the
epithet "scoundrel" towards Mr. Budd,
when the latter advanced upon him.
Platt seized a chair and raised it to strike
Mr. Budd. The latter seized the chair,
threw it aside, and planted a blow with
his clenched fist over one of Platt's eyes,
leaving the mark thereof visible. The
chair was cast aside and the two combat
ants closed. Platt being the larger and
stronger, throwing Mr. Budd to the floor.
Mr. Budd, however, held Mr. Platt's
head in a very close and firm embrace,
and, though underneath in the struggle,
evidently possessed an advantage in this
fact. Platt probably either knew or felt
this—for he was heard to cry out one or
more times, appealingly: 'Don't bite
me! don't bite me!" As Mr. Budd hid
Ito intention of tasting his blood, he did
not "bite" Mr. Platt. • In a few moments
Mr. Budd turned his antagonist, and held
him prostrate upon the floor. Then Mr.
Platt looseffhis hold, threw out his arms,
and .cried for "water!"
And water was kindly furnished him.
When in the midst of a hot personal con
flict the party having the disadvantage
can stop to take water, the other, we pre
sume, can magnanimously afford to grat
ify him. So, when Mr,Platt threw up
his arms and appealed or "water," Mr.
Bndd released him, arose, took the water
that was brought and handed it to the
fallen Congressman. After this Mr. Budd
turned to leave the office, when Mr. Platt
on his feet and partially revived, called
him back, saying: "We'll have another
round." Mr. Budd came back and wait
ed. Mr. Platt's pleasure—promenading
the office floor, while he•was washing the
blood from his face, No further encoun
ter ensued, however, Mr. Platt settling
the matter by saying he would have Kr.
Budd before the Mayor for this "unpro
voked assault" upon him in his office.
The parties, after exchanging a few words,
parted, expressing mutual satisfaction.
Poisoned by Bate Dye
From the Davenport (Iowa) Gazette, Aug. 17.7
Shortly after the death - of Dr. J. M.
Witherwax, which occurred on the 15th
of last dune, the Scott County Medical
Society appointed a committee to investi
gate thescausei which led to his death, it
having been the opinion of several medi
cal gentlemen that he died from the ef
fects of lead poison.
The committee have prepared their re
port, in which they unanimously concur
in the opinion that the cause of Dr. With
erwax's death was rightly surmised, and
that the poison was introduced into the
system through the use of hair dressing
or dye. For four years previous to his
demise, Dr. Witherwax had used the
dressing.. almost daily on his hair and
whiskers, and frequently during the
whole period suffered from pains which
were similar to those produced by lead
colic.
In the report, Dr. Baker, as Chairman,
cites many instances given in prominent
medical works and journals. in which :ri
dividuals have died from diseases pro
duced by use of hair dies, in which symp
toms very similar to those manifested in
the ease of Dr. W. were be rayed. Fur
thermore it is established that congestion
of the brain is not unfrequently produced
by these dyes.
It is stated that all the numerous hair
dyes in use, except one, contain lead. The
one exception contains nitrate of silver,
instead of lead, and that, while it does
not poison the system, crisps and dries
the hair—to its injury, of course.
The lead used on thschair is absorbed
by the skin, and thence conveyed to the
different organt in the body, and effects
its work of destruction by poison. The
magic bombs, which are warranted to
turn gray hair black, are made of lead,
and Dr. , Baker cites an instance of the
death from lead poison of an individual
who used them.
The Latest Italmay CansolidaUon.
Of the movement in progress to con

Shore Railway Company with the Tole

pany, we have learned the following par,
ticulars: , That it Is proposed to lease the
Wabash road to the Michigan Southern
in perpetuhk; that the latter company is
to guaranty; the former three per cent.
Semi-annual dividend on its stock for =the•
first year; three and a half per cent. semi
annually for the, second year; four per
cent. semi-annually for the third year,
and that 'after the, fourth ) ear the di*,
,lends on both stocks are to be of the same
amount. We understand that the prelim
inary agreement to this effect between
the committees of the two companies has
already been .signed; and further, that the
board of directors of the Michigan South

SPECIAL NOTICES
Or SCHENCK'S . PIILIIIO3IIC
BYRLP. ISKAWEER TONIC AND
MANDRAKE EMUS will cure Consumption,
Liver Complaint and Dyspepsia, if taken accord.'
lug to directions. They are all three to be taken
at the sometime. They cleanse the stomach, re
lax the livor and put IVO work; then the appetite
becomes good; the food digests and makes good
blood; the patient begins to grow In flesh; the
diseased rnatter rns into the lungs, and the
patient outgrows tee disease and gets well. Thls
is the only way to cure consumption.
To the Ile three medicines Dr. J. H. Schenck. of
Philadelphia, owes his unrivaled' success In the
treatment of pulmonary Consumption. The Pill-,
monic Syrup ripens the morbid matter In the
lungs, nature throws it off by an easy expectora
tion, fbr when the phlegm oil matter is ripe a
allaht cough will throw it off; and the patient has
rest and the lungs begin to heal. -
T.. do this, the Seaweed 'ionic and Mandrake
Pills must be ere ely used to cleanse the stomach
and liver. so that the Pulmonlc syrup. and the,.
food vrtll make good blood.
Schenck's Mandrake Pills act upon the liver,
removing all obstructions. relax the musts of-the
gall bladder, the bile starts freely.. and the liver
Is soon relieved; the stools will show what the
Pills can do; nothinghas ever been invented ex
cept calomel (a deadly poison Inlets is very dan
gerous to use uniess with great care,) that will
unlock the gall bladder and start the secretions
of the liver like Schenck's Mandrake Pills.
Liver Complaint luone of the most prominent
causes of Consumption.
Schenck's Seaweed Tonic is a gentle stimulant
•`‘lt ID
aticialteratlieTiriii the iiiiiiii Fri — iiiii Seaweed,
which this preparation ism Lie 01, gestate the
stomach to tnrow out the gala lc juice to dissolve
the food with the Pulmonlc Sy p, and it is made
into good hood without fermentation or souring
In the stomach.
The great reason why phyeicitos do not cure
Consumption is, they try to do too much; they
give medicine to stop the cough, to stop chills,to
stop night sweats, hectic fever and by so doing
they derange the whole digestiv e powers. lock
ing up the secretor's, and even tually the patient
sinks and dies.
Dr. Schenck, In his treatment, does not try_to
stop a cough, night sweats, chills or fever. Re.
move the cause, and they will all pof their
own accord. No one can be cured or . Consum
ption, Liver Complaint, Dyfpepsta,,, Catarrh,
Canker, Ulcerated Throat, unless the liver and
stomach are made healthy. ,1
t
If a person has consumption, of c oar s e u he
ungs in some way are diseased, enter tubercles,
abcesses, bronchial irritation, pleursCadheston,
or the lungs are a mass of inflammation and las
decaying. In such cases what must be done? ' I
Is-not only the lungs mat are wasting, but it I
the whole body. The stomach and liver have los
their power to make blood out of fo_d. Now the
only chance la to take Dr. Schenck's three medi
cines, which will bring up a tone to the - stomach,
the patient will begin to want food. it will digest
easily and make good blood; then the patient ne
gins to gain in flesh. and as soon as the body be
gins to grow, the lungs cow mence to heal up.
and the patient gets fleshy and well. This is tne
only way to cure Consumption.
When there is no lung disease an d only Liver
Complaint and Dyspepsia, 'Schenck's Seaweed
Tonic and Mandrake Pills are sufficient, without
the Pulmonic Syrup. Take the Mandrake Pills
freely In &a pillions complaints, as they are Der
feetlybannless., ,
Dr. Schenck, who has enjoyed nninterrnpted
i e
health fur many years past, and now weighs 225
pounds, was wasted away to a mere skeleton In
hiethe very last stage of Pulmonary Consumpti tt,
ph having pronounced his case - ho -'
less and abandoned him to his fate. He was cured
by the aforesaid mee !eines, and since hli recove
ry many thousands similarly afflicted have used
Dr. Schenck's preparation with the same re
markable success. Full directions accompany
each, making it not absolutely necessary to per
sonally see Dr. Schenck, unless patients wish
their lungs examined, and for this purpose he is
