I A gentleman who was in Towanda, Pa.,

or five companies of volunteers were
there, and on tbc point of starting for
Harrisburg; and that a fellow commenced
talking secession declaring that ho
would join tho Confederate Army. no

cond time, and was again "keeled over."
Up to this time the grccn-looking youth
had not uttered a word, but after deliv

j bloated from eating wet olover, or horses
i from eating green clover, ho bas found n
sure remedy in giving to tbe animals an
ordinary charge of gunpowdor, mixed with
; about the same quantity of fine salt in tho
. hand, and thrown on the tongue every 15
minutes, until two or three doses arc giv
en. He says: "In thc summer of 1658,
I bad five head taken at tho same time,
two of which were severe cases, but this
treatment savod them. Tho samo week
tho hides of forty head wero sent into
Battlo Creek, and all from animals that
had been lost by early wet clover."
How West Point was Saved.
A ebort timo beforo the expiration of
the lato Administration, Major Delafield
reigucd bin pot as commandant at West
Point, and through tho influonco of Mr.
Slid ell . General Boauregard was appoint

before the latter had assumed his posi
tion, tho Administration learned that
there was a plot in existence, tho fulfil
ment of whioh would havo been to place
West Point in tbc hands of the Secession
ists, and at thc same time, through the
complicity of traitors in Now York, a
movement was to bo made for separating
the city from tho State. Tho confusion
that would follow, it was hoped, would
prove highly advantageous to tho traitors.
Major Delafield was telegraphod immedi
