GUNBOATS AT VICKSBORG.
A KOVEh EXPEDITION TO PASS TBI
COWFEDEBATtil STRONGHOLD.
A Fctlrrnl Flortlla Fails to Force
Pnssnffo Through Hogs and
Swamps Saved by Sherman.
Cnrringlon Smith snys, Jn the Detroit
Free Pro, I lint had any Confederate in
or nronnd Yicksburg assorted that the
Federals would seek to pass that point
by pending gunbonta through the Yazoo,
Sunllowcr and Yallabusha Kivers and a
corps of men through the swamps and
marshes and bogs which cover the entire
country for (illy miles in length, he
would have been hoo'.cd at a a fool.
Andyit, continues Mr. Smith, that was
exactly what Grant planned as cool as
ieo and Slicnnan and Porter were sen
to curry out.
To bogin with, each of the streams
named was hardly more than a creek.
Whilo they had a good depth of water,
they were narrow, crooked and ob
structed by sunken trees, and at that
date were hardly known even to flat
boats. AVo mndo our start about the
middle of Jlnrch, having live gunboats,
four or five lan;e tugs mounting one gun
each, but depended on for pulling away
obstructions, and two or three floats, or
fiat-bottoms, on which mortars were
mount.-d. it was understood by the
flevt that Shermnn was to kep pace with
us with about 10,000 men. The novelty
of tho situation was such as no fleet ever
experienced. After ascending the Yazoo
for a few miles details of axmen had to
bo sent on ahead to cut away tho limbs
which would have brushed away our
smokestacks in the narrow channels.
Tho woods, as far as the eye could sec,
were hung with moss, ivy and wild
grapes, and the ground was hidden by
water. The only way to find the chan
nel was to sound for it, and to follow
the lead of the pilot-boat. The sight ol
us frightened away gieat flocks of birds,
' and alligators rolled la.ily aside and ser
pents swam hissing away.
We were no sooner out of the Yazoo
than the tugs had to begin on tho logs
anil stumps and fallen trees, and our
progress was slow and tedious. At one
point the channel ran between growing
trees for three or four miles, and three
fifths of them had to be cut away before
the fleet could pass. They were sawed
off, the trunks hauled off, and then 8
couple of tugs would hitch to the
'stump" and snake it out by the roots.
At this one spot we suffered a delay of
thirty hours, and got our lirst inkling of
tho diflicultics of the voyage. Each day
we crept along at snail's pace, clearing
away the obstructions, and each night
our hawsers were made fast to trees
along the banks and we turned in with
bruised hands and aching bodies.
As soon as the Confederates discovered
the movement our troubles vastly in
creased. Scores and hundreds of trees
were felled across the stream in advance
of us, and our working parties were con
tinually fired upon by men hiddcu in the
swamps for tho purpose. We had not
only to work the vessels, but to clear the
stream of obstructions and heep the guns
going. We now also had to work by
night as well as by day, for if we rested
the enemy were at work again with the
ax.
On the fifth day, when the stream be
gan to broaden and deepen, and there
was a hope that we had seen the worst,
tve found our progress absolutely
blocked. Tho entire bed of the river
was filled with willows, bushes, canes
and young trees, and a channel must be
cut through or wo must go back. A
survey was made, and it was decided it
would be a labor of weeks to cut a chan
nel. We were even now under a hot
fire, the Confederates having sent in
fantry and artillery from Yicksburir to
head oil the expedition. Sherman had
found it impossible to keep the banks,
aild had sought to make cross-cuts. Iu
this way wo had left every Federal In
fantryman miles behind, and all the
righting was being done by the men of
tho flotilla. Our retreat beran at day
light on the morning of tho sixth day of
tho expedition.
The waters were rising and the current
increasing, and each vessel dropped
down stern lirst and hud to be "snubbed"
from tree to tree iu the narrow places.
tln less than three hours this method had
to be abandoned, the enemy tilling the
woods with sharpshooters and killing oil
the men handling the hawsers. Indeed,
it after awhile, became impossible for
any one to show himself on the deck of
a single, craft Our men, protected by
such barricades as they could form, were
teturning tho fire with all possible vigor,
vheu tho fleet was brought to a sudden
standstill by obstructions whichhad been
felled in the rar. At the same moment
tho Confederates began felling trees a
mile and a half nbove, and to also in
crease their ride fire. We were nicely
penned up, and nine men out of every
j ten among us felt eertan that we must
surrender. .Lvery craft was short of
ammunition, and the line was strung out
in such a way, and one was so hidden
from the other by tho trees, that signals
were of littlo use. iloweuer, after lyiii"
under a hot fire for about twenty miiT
utos. a detail was sent o!I from every
boat, making 500 or 000 men in all, and
while some worked at the trees others
held tho Confederates at bay.
We were still at work, suffering se
verely from the enemy's fire, when word
was ent back from the front that the
Confederates had received a large rein
forcement, and that a body of regular
troops, accompanied by artillery, was ad
vancing to a bold attack. There was a
panic among us for a few moments, each
une feeling certain that this was the end,
and every boat made ready for the final
struggle. Alter wkiit seemed a ciiminal
wasie. of time, and with men dropping
dead at the r.'.te of three or four per min
ute, we received ordois to return, to out
shins. The movement was being ee
cuted when the head of one of Sher
man's columns cunie and struck the
advancing Confederate force in Hank,
and after a brief tight scattered it
through tho woods. The providential
rival of the infantry certainly saved
th.it whole fleet from capture, penned up
as it was.
Tha Friti-h Museum has one of th;
largest libiurics i:i tho world, and it is
gii a;ly used by students and readers eu

that it is now proposed to provide an
ddilional room for judicial readers.
SCIENTIFIC AND INDUSIKIAL.
A California electrician has invonted a
process whereby gold, silver, and copper
can bo instantly smelted by a lightning
stroke.
It is now claimed that one of the re
sults of tho recent earthquake is the
diminution of tho flow of natural pus
from certain wells, and a considerable
feeling of anxiety is consequently per
vading the circles interested.
Tho project of a South Tolar expedi
tion is being seriously ventilated in the
scientific circles of Australia, the Gov
ernment having expressed its intention
of assisting the enterprise. The Aus
tralian whalemen are also becoming in
terested in th project, inquiries having
already reached London whether whaling
vessels for nn anti-Arctic voyage would
be subsidized by the Government.
Taper doors cot about the same as
wood, and are R;iid to be much better,
because there is no shrinking, swelling,
or warping. Tho paper door ij com
posed of two thick jiapcr boards stamped
and molded into panels, and glazed to
gether with gluo and potash, and thon
rolled through heavy rollers. It is first
covered, with a waterproof coating, and
then with ,a fireproof coating, and is
painted and varnished and hung in the
ordinary way.
It is said that tho great glazier of
Alaska is moving at the rate of a quarter
of a mile per annum toward the f-ea.
Tho front presents a wall of ice somo five
hundred feet in thickness; its breadth
varies from three to ten miles, and it is
ab mt 15(1 miles long. Almost every
(jUnrtcr of an hour hundreds of tons of
ice in largo blocks fall into the sea,
which they agitate in tho most violent
manner, tho waves being such as to toss
about the largest vessels that approach
tho glacier as if they were small boats.
Even sea-weed has a certain value, and
somo day may b3 in considerable de
mand. A new English method of utilis
ing it consists in boiling it with carbo
Eate of soda, filtering and treating w ith
sulphuric acid. Thus is obtained a sub
stance to be known as "alguina," which
has more viscosity than starch, or every
gumarabtc, and may be profitably used
in stiffening textile fabrics. It is said to
bo also adapted for the making of syrups
nnd for culinary purposes. From the
matter left after extracting this substance
a very good writing paper may be cheap
ly made.
Tho duration of the infectious stages
of various diseases is thus given by Dr.
J. F. I'earse, an English physician:
Measles, from the second day of the dis
ease, for three weeks; small-pox, from
tho fourth day, for four weeks; scarlet
fever, from tho fourth day, for seven
weeks; mumps, from the second day, for
three weeks; diphtheria, from tho first
day, for three weeks. The incubation
periods, or intervals occurring between
exposure to infection and tho first symp
toms, are ns follows : AVhooping-cough,
fourteen days; mumps, eighteen days;
measles, ten days; small-pox, twelve
days; scarlet fever, three days; diph
theria, fourteen days.
HEALTH HINTS.
Drinking a cupful of southernwood tea
will often cure a headache.
Frosted feet are said to bo cured by
holding them in the smoke made by
sprinkling corn meal on live coals; best
to have it under cover, so as to get the
full benefit of the smoke.
In caso of sickness a call for old linen
docs not mean worn-out shirt bosoms (as
many seem to think), but soft pieces of
handkerchiefs, napkins and tablecloths;
or even old cotton goods, if very fine and
soft. All such pieces should be saved;
if you have more than you want give
part to some one less fortunate than your
self. The Stores of Taris.
Paris beautifies herself as much for
tho rest of tho world as for her own
people. She lives off her visitors, and
her store windows are put up to catch
the eye of the passer by. These great
boulevards are lined with stores which
at night are illuminated brilliantly, both
outside anil in. Lines of gas-jets with
rclUctors are placed above the windows
on the outside so that they may cast a
strong bla.e down upon the goods dis
played. .Nearly all the goods of the
store, as a rule, are in the windows, and
tho interior is not to be entered except
for purchase. Small stocks are carried,
I judge, and as a general thing a first
class Paris store is not more than twelve
feet square on the inside. I except, of
course, the grand establishments of the
"Alagazin du Louvre," and the "Bon
Marche."
Your average Parisian merchant be
gins business at about 8 and closes at
about 'J in the evening. At nobn he
takes a recess for two hours for his
breakfast, and between 1 and 'i little
business is done all over tho city. The
man and his wife, as a rule, work to
gether, and the wife here is tho better
half in a business way. It is she who
keeps the cash account, and the books ol
I'aris maybe said to bo kept by women.
There arc no smarter women in the
world than these Parisicnnes. They are
not beautiful, but they are intensely
practical, and they make excellent wives
and good mothers. The love for family
is strung in France, general reports to
the contrary notwithstanding, and no
nation has more loving fathers and
doting mothers than this. Pari Letter.

A NEW TIEW OF CONSUMPTION. I
JUnni ii ruble Cirnei
" IMrdiral SUhit ) I
"Many persons die ot Consumption who
rould easily le ctrred," save Ir. 8. i. Clark,
of Watflrtown, N. Y., "if they woftld (to nt
It right. I have a new view of the disease.
Consumption is not always of lung origin."
"How sol What is it then!"
"II any cades of consumption are second
ary. The diseasejtself prevails everywhere,
but the bentt practitioners refuse to attribute
it entirely to inheritance or the weather. If
a person lives in the most favorablo climate
in tho world and has any tendency to lung
weakness, if certain conditions exist in the
system, that clitnnto, however favorablo,
will not prevent development of tho disease.
The disorder in such casos is only a secondary
symptom in the lungs of some other ailment,
and can never be cured until approached
through its source."
"Yes, doctor; but what Is the method of
approach ( "
"If you dip your finger iu acid you burn
It; do you not!"
"Yes."
"If you wash this burnt finger every second
with the acid, what is the result"
"Why, constant inflammation, festering
and eventual destruction of the finger."
"I'reciselyl Now then for my method,
which commends itself to the reason and
iudgtnent of every skillful practitioner. You
now certain acids aredevoloped iu the body.
Well, if the system i all right those acids
are neutralized or utilized and carried out.
If the system is run down by excesses, anx
iety, continual exposure or overwork, these
acids accumulate in the blood. If there is
any natural weakness iu the lung, this a id
attacks it, having a natural afllnity for
it, and if the acid is not neutralized or passed
out of the system, it burns, ulcerates and
finally destroys the lung. Is this clear f"
"i'erfeotly! But how do you prevent the
accumulation of these acids in the system)"
"Irregularities of tho liver and kindneys
create this excess of acid and the supply can
be cut off only by correcting the wrong action
of these organs. The kidney alone should
carry out in quantity, in solution, enough of
this acid daily, which, if left .in tho blood,
would kill four men. When the stomach, the
liver and the kineys are all conspiring to in
crease the acid, the wonder is tlint weak
lungs resist death as long as they do!"
"But you have not told us how you would
treat such cases. "
"No, but I will. The lungs are only dis
eased as an effect of this acid or kidney poi
son in the blood. After having exhausted
all authorized remedies to correct this acid
condition, I was compelled, in justice to my
patients, to use Wasuer's safe cure: though
a proprietary remedy, it is now recoguizsd,
I see. bv leadiucr nhvsicians. bv Presidents of
State Boards of Health nnd by insuranco
physicians, as a seioiitiflo and tho until
specific for those great organs iu which over
ninety per cent, of diseases originate or are
sustained."
"Is this form of treatment successful!"
"It Is wondorfully so, nnd for that reason
I am only too willing that you should an
nounce it to the world of consumptives."
Noteby the Publishers : We hav received
the above interview from H. H. JVarner &
Co., Rochester, N. Y.. with the request that
we publish it for the good of suffering peo
ple. In a foot noto to their lettor they say:
"The experience of Dr. Clark is not
strange to us. In our correspondence we
have tound that many thousands of poopb
are suffering from what they think is Con
sumption, whereas tho real dilliculty is with
tho liver and kidneys, proven by the fa -t
that when these organs are restored to health
by tho use of Warner's safe cure, the con
sumption disappears, and so does uremic or
kiduey poisoning, which causes so many
symptoms of diseases that the human system
is subject to. The same may be said of rheu
matism, caused by an acid condition of tho
system. We iusist upon what we alway
have claimed, if you remove the cause, the
system will soon perfect the work aready
begun. Mrs. Kev. Dr. Theodore Wolf, of
Gettysburg, To., wife of tho editor of the
Lutheran Quarterly, said her friends

but after a thorough treatment with War

but one is enough. If you publish tho above

Peasant Life lit Italy,
An Euglish lady, the Hon. Margaret
Collier, has written a book, "Our Homo
by the Adriatic," in which she gives some
very curious accounts of peasant life in
Italy. Cleanliness is not one of the vir
tues of Italian peasants. JMiss Collier
found that to ask for a bath is to create
alarm regarding the statu of one's health,
tine old man who worked on thu farm
being asked if he had ever been washed,
replied, after some reflection, that ho be
lieved some one had washed him when
he was a small child. In the rich houses
they have great hoards of linen, which
enables them to hold only one washing a
year. The dirty linen is stowed away in
cupboards until tho time comes round
ior tne uunuui Ava.su. men is seen a
procession of carts, filing down to the
nearest stream. The poor Italian babies
nave a nara time or it. incirlcgs are
still bandaged with the fascia, like tho
limbs of mummies. Education is not
excessively indulged in. A young lady
wno nau receivea ner education in aeon
vent asked .Miss Collier if it was really
necessary to cross rtio ocean to get to
Ergland, and she did not know what an
island is. To animals the lower Italians
jrre exceedingly cruel, yet otherwise
they Jake better care of them than of
thcJr own families, and when a doctor is
consulted it is almost always regarding
a sick animal. The Italian country gen
tleman does not hesitate to beat the" fe
male members of his family. Marriages
are arranged after the I-'rench method.
A young lady who came to be congratu
lated by Miss Collier on her approat h'uig
marriage, was asked the name of he;
chosen husband. "Oh, I don't know,"
she answered; 'papa has not yet told me
that."
A Celebrated Calf Cusp.
Tho famous Jones County calf case has
just been disposed of by the Supreme
Court of Iowa. This is one of the most
remarkable cases on the records of
American courts, and furnishes a strik
ing illustration of what an expensive
luxury a little satisfaction obtained in
legal fo'in may prove to be. Twelve
years ago a Greeti County farmer went
to Jones County and bought some calves
of a man named Johnson. They were
probably stolen, but Johnson claimed to
have bought them from a thir l party.
Johnson was prosecuted by the Anti
Horso Thief Association, but was ac
quitted, lie sued for ij;l0, Out) damages,
and the case has been tried live times,
ami each time, except one, he has re
ceived a verdict for from $', 000 to $7,
ftOO, which was always set a-ide. lie
appealed to the Supreme Court, nnd the
verdict has been revised, giving tiim no
damages. The court costs are now
:!00, while the expenses on both sides
amount to at least (.0,000, and several
persons have been ruined by the expenses
of the case.
The value of the calves was fifty dollars

Fish Ponds In Saxony.
In traveling through Saxony, says
correspondent, one is struck with tho
large number of ponds of all sizes which
stud tho fields in every direction.
"Whether these ponds are tho result of
accident or design, they arc ns carefully

They, too, are n source of income to their
owners. They teem with carp, tench
and othor fish that w ill thrive in sluggish
water, which are taken out in the fall
and sold nt prices ranging from 12 to 20
cents per pound. The ponds aro then
re stocked with a young brood, which
costs from fiO cents to $1.25 p?r hun
dred, according to size. These fish are
left to shift for themselves until thcvnro
a year old, when they are generally large

ponds yield a crop of ico which is readily
