Os the 16th inst, a great earth
quake took place in Asia Minor. At
Smyrna, many houses were thrown
down. The wave from the sea car
ried ships away out on 6hore. The

400 miles rolled like waves of water.
Three thousand people, as far as is
known, lost their lives. Twenty
thousand people are out of homes.

Some one started a slander against
William Livsey, Republican candi
date for State Treasurer, by stating
that he was in the Rebel army. Hon
est people sometimes retell what is
not true because they Lave been mis
informed. Don't repeat the slander
that Mr. Livsey was in the Rebel
army. -He served gallantly in the
Union army, and is a member of
Hays Post No. 3, G. A. R., of Pitts
burg. The Supreme Court has decided
agaiust the Civil Rights Bill. That
decision will take from the Demo
crats one of the sources of making a
Toto here and there among unread
people. In this county, votes have
been made for the Democracy, by
politicians telling certain people that
the Republicans passed a law that
compells a white man to keep a col
ored man over night, if the colored
man desires to stay.
The five civil rights catses that
brought a decision of the United
States Supreme Court, sitting in
Washington, D C, last week, against
the constitutionality of the civil
rights act, were submitted to the
Court about one year ago, and were
for "not admitting certain colored
persons to equal accommodations
and privileges in inns and hotels, in
railroad cars and in theatres." Jus
tice Harlan will put upon record a
dissenting opinion.
A scmbeb of citizens of New Ha
ven, Connecticut, while driving on
Sunday stopped to pick up a few
chestnuts that had fallen from trees
on the road. For some reason, some
one, sued them for driving and gath
ering chestnuts on Sunday. The
suits were brought under the old
blue laws. The prosecutions have
aroused a great feeling among the
Yankees, and the general opinion
now is that the blue laws will have
to go, since it is demonstrated that
a man dare not walk or drive out on
Sunday and pick up a nut, and carry
it away with him, even if the nut be
found in the road. The first Yankees
must have been great Sunday people.
The North American says, it is
gratifying to find that there are some
colored men of sufficient intelligence
to take the Civil Rights decision in
- good part, and to understand that if
accepted in the proper spirit, it is
more likely to be beneficial than in
jurious to people of their race The
Rev. M. Laws is one of them. His
very sensible opinion is that except
in one or two Southern States the
colored people have all the protec
tion they need under the constitu
tions of the States and of the United
States, and that in cases where they
are subjected to unjust discrimina
tion, this Civil Rights bill was pow
erless to give them the help they
need. That is the sum and substance
of the whole matter. As a general
thing there is every disposition to I
treat the negroes fairly and welL but
where a contrary feeling exists, it is
only intensified by such compulsion
as the Civil Rights bill attempted.

We know of nothing more degrad
ing to the Bar of Philadelphia than
the personal visits of certain lawyers
to the families of the dead and wound
ed in the Susquehanna avenue acci
dent for the purpose of getting up
cases for damages against the com
panies. The maimed bodies had
hardly been more than brought into
those sorrowing households before
the glib lawyer, hat in hand, was pull
ing the front door belL There is a
number of men in practice at the
Philadelphia Bar who carefully read
the newspapers every morning to find
out poor people who are in distress,
aud who then thrust themselves upon
these people with the importunities
of a huckster. There is more than
one instance where they have added
insult and menace when there impor
tunities have been rejected. Chroi-cle-Herald.
Among tho leading citizens of the
southwest corner of Walker county,
Ga., were James Gann and wife.
They were related to the leading
families of that neighborhood and
few were held in high esteem.
The couple were married about 5
months ago, the woman being a
daughter of Sevier Powell, one of
the best known citizens in that sec
tion. She was a comely girl, but
her education had been sadly neglect
ed and she grew up fully imbued
with all the superstitions of her re
gion. A few weeks after the wed
ding the girl discovered that she had
cast her lot with a man whom she
did not love, and while pining over
her fatal mistake met Henry Cop
enger, a handsome young man, who
worked in that locality. She eloped
with Copenger, who was arrested
and sent to jail yesterday. Her sto
ry illustrates the supersition of her
section. She claims that Copenger
conjuied her with the "left hind foot
of a graveyard rabbit" and that 6h
was not responsible for what follow

On Monday night of October 8th, a
storm struck the little town of Arca
dia, in Sempelenn county Wisconsin.
The storm struck the town at mid
night It came from the southwest
and upon its approach the air was so
charged with electricity that lights
could not be made to burn. People
rushed to the cellars to avoid the
danger which seemed imminent. The
atmosphere was of a reddish-green
color, with a strong sulphuric odor,
t.U . 1 1 3- 1
anu mo roar oi tue tornaao was ueai-
euing. Barns and out buildings were 1
torn from their foundations, dashed to
fragments and scattered in all direc
tions. Broken boards, trees, bricks
and stones filled the air and were
hurled so violently in some cases as to
drive them through the sides of build
ings. Among the losers are Patrick
Manning and a farmer named Oisen,
who lost everything, including their
houses, barns and outbuildings. John
Uingnam lost his granary, barn and
contents, 100 tons of hay, 4 horses
and some blooded stock. John
Robertson's house, barn and out
buildings were destroyed. James
Gaveny lost an orchard valued at
$5,000. Senator Comstock's new
sorghum mill was destroyed and his
barn wrecked. There were many
other losses, varying from 100 to
1,000. Mrs. Berry and Miss Piper,
who were most injured by their falling
residence jire considered out of danger.
The cyclone seems to have spent its
force up North creek valiey,dainaging
property, but causing no loss of life.
Cured With Snake Venom.
The last number of the Philadel
phia Medical News contains a recital
of a successful experiment with snake
venom as a curative for tetanus by
Dr. A. O. Ameden, of Glens Falls,
N. Y. Being in a locality in which
the rattle snakes were fearfully nu
merous, and having previously given
some thought to the subject, Dr.
Ameden resolved to make the test
"Availing myself of the services of
au experienced snake-catcher," he
says, "I soon obtained venom fresh
from the fangs of one of those rep
tiles; with this I moistenen the
point of a hypodermic syringe and
inserted it beneath the cuticle in the
upper dorsal region near1 the spine.
Symptoms of snake poisoning rapid
ly followed, with a decided ameliora
tion of the tetanic spasms and rigidity
which entirely ceased at the end of
ten hours, and the patient enjoyed a
quiet sleep of six hours duration.
Thirty hours after the insertion of
the poison, howover, rigidity with
slight spasms again' came ou. A
second introduction of the venom
was made as before, and no further
trouble with tetanus was experienced,
and the patient made a fairly rapid
recovery. But extreme prostration
follo'ved the last introduction of
venom, which necessitated active al
coholic stimulation, as in all cases of
accidental snake poisoning. There
was no diffuse inflammation, from
the wounds, as frequently happens
when persons are bitten in the limbs
by these snakes, and no other results
that would deter me from making a
second experiment in the 6aine man
ner. I am of the opinion that the
second insertion of th6 venom was
too much, and might havo been with
held. I believe that this snake ven
om, which has leen properly called
Vrotaline,' can be used with compar
ative safety, and may yet prove to be
a valuable remedial agent in tetanus.
and possibly in some other spasmod
ic diseases.
The Great Alaska River as Seen
hy Schwatka. Shooting Three
Indians. J
Saj Fiuscisco, Oct. I), 1SS3.
Lieutenant Schwatka, of Arctic
fame, who. with his party, was pick- j
ed np by Lieutenant Hay, at St Mi
chael's, speaking of his trip up the
lukon nver, Alaska. sa3-s that they
started from Fort Vancouver, W. T.,
on M;y 21, being detained by Guuer
al Miles, commanding the depart
ment of Columbia, to m.ike au ex
ploration of the Yukon. He traveled
two thousand eight hundred miles
overland, reaching the head waters
of the river, where they constructed
a raft of logs to navigate the stream
to its mouth. They procured a crew
of six Indians and proceeded down
the graauauy increasing stream with
in 250 miles of Fort Chilfat when
the rapids were encountered. Down ,
them the Indians refused to go and
attempted to force the raft ashore.
Schwatka, in order to suppress the
mutiny, opened lire on the Indians,
killing three, when the others sub
mitted and tho rapids were run. The
voyage ou the raft was 1 ,821) miles.
I rom the mouth of the lukon tney
proceeded to St Michael's, where
they boarded the Leo for this port
Lieutenant Schwatka claims that he
has been further up the Yukou than
any other white man. This is denied
by Signal Service Officer Leavitt w-ho
has been stationed at St. Michael's,
and who also came down ou the Leo.
He says he ascended the Yukon to
Fort Selkirk, 2,000 miles from its
mouth. He describes the river as
being one of the largest in the world,
discharging fifty per cent more wa
ter than the Mississippi and as be
ing at places seven miles in breadth.
the lukon, which Lieutenant
Schwatka has been exploring, is the
largest American river flowing into
the Pacific Ocean. It rises in Brit
ish America, runs generally westward
and empties into Behring s Sea. Its
length probably about 2,500 miles
and for three-fourths of that distance
it is navigable for steamers. It cuts
through the Rocky mountains by a
narrow, deep and very swift channel,
without falls or obstruction and
amidst scenery of surpassing gran
deur. The Yukon has five mouths
the intervening delta being seventy
miles in breadth. At some points
along its lower course it is so wide
that one bank cannot be seen from
the other. For the first thousand
miles it is from one to five miles in
width, and in some places, including
islands, it is twenty miles from main
bank to main bank. The estimates
of the length of this magnificent
stream vary considerably. Mr. Rob
ert Campbell, of the Hndson Bay
Company, declares that it is naviga
ble at certain seasons of the year
for a distance of 3,000 miles.
How a Union Soldier Galloped
Down a Line of Fire at Manassas.
The most conspicuous act of reck
less courage I ever saw displayed on
any battle-field during our great civ
il war occurred at the second battle
of Manassas on the 30th of August
1862. It was performed by a Fed
eral artillerist in the presence of both
armies and was witnessed bv at least
a thousand men, many of whom are
still living and can readily recall the
incident when reminded of the ou-
cumstances. Just as Hood's men
charged down the hill near the Hen
ry house upon the first Federal Hue,
and it became evident Le would cap
ture the battery stationed there, a
Federal artilleryman determined to
save one of the cannon, if possible,
and to do so he had to take it up the
Bide of the ditch in front of the Con
federates for a half mile. The ditch
was four feet wide and as many deep
and could not be crossed with the
cannon. How he got his hcrses
hitched or whether they had really
ever been taken from the piece I nev
er have kuown, but the first I saw of
him he was coming up our front in a
sweeping gallop from the cloud of
6moke and Hood's men were fir
ing at him. As soon as he escaped
from that volley he cane in front of
our brigade and under range of our
muskets on the left and as he swept
on up the hue a file fire was opened
upon him. Our line was approach
ing the ditch rapidly at a double
quick and the lane between us and
the ditch was getting narrower each
second, but the artilleryman seemed
determined to save his gun from cap
ture and he flew along his course at
a tremendous rate of 6pecd. He had
four largo gray or white horses to
the cannon and they came up the
valley in splendid style. The man
sat erect and kept his team well in
hand, while his whip seemed to play
upon the flanks of the leaders and all
four horses appeared to leap togeth
er in regular time. The ground was
very dry and a cloud of dust rolled
out from under the horses' feet and
from the wheels of the cannon as
they came thundering along.
Three regiments of our brigade
had already tired at him as he lushed
along their front and as he approach
ed the left of another I ran down the
rear rank shouting to the men :
"Shoot at the horses ! Let the man
alone and shoot at the horses! You
are firing too high !" At this I saw
a noted marksman iu Company F
drop upon one knee and sight along
the barrel of his musket and fire, but
on came the man and the gallop of
his team was unbroken. Ramming
in another cartridge the marksman
was ready again iu a minute and just
as the cannonier swept across his
frout within a hundred yards he
kneeled down aud taking deliberate
aim at the foremost horse fired again,
but on went the team unharmed as
before. Thus he passed along the
whole front of our regiment and then
along another on our right and es
caped arouud the head of the ditch
and across the field and up the hill
beyond. As far off as we could see
him his team was still going in a gal
lop, but when out of range on the
hill beyond the ditch he turned in
his saddle, and, taking off his hat
waved it around his head several
times and some of the Confederates
cheered him.
At least five hundred men fired at
that Yankee gunner, and I have often
woadered if he escaped death in the
subsequent battles of the war aud
lives to tell of the fearful gauntlet he
he ran along the front of a whole
brigade of Confederated firing at him.

phia Weekly Times.
Work On Sunday.
The question of work ou Sunday,
is a question that is being most ex
tensively talked about for the reason,
that a great deal of work is now done
on the SKbbath day, by corporations.
The following article relates to the
question and is from the North
American, of September 4 th :
Magistrate South yesterday gave
a hearing to James Monahan, Henry
Kernan, Emuuul Steck, James Kel
ley and James Whalcn, tho foreman
and laborers employed by the Phila
delphia and Reading Railroad Com
pany who were arrested near Wayne
station on Sunday, August 2Ctb, by
direction of Mayor King, on the
charge of violating tho act of Assem
bly of April 22, 17'.)4, prohibiting all
unnecessary work on Sunday. They
were at hrst taken before Magistrate
Laduer at the Central Station, who
held them for a further hearing.
That official, having been succeeded
at the Central Station by Magistrate
South as alternate, the matter came
under his jurisdiction. Counsel fur
the company submitted a plea set
ting forth that tho work could not be
performed during the week without
the suspension of travel. During
duvlight upon week days fifty five
schedule trains pass over the road,
and there were not at any part of
the day sufficient intervals of tune
when the railroad is unoccupied by
trains to have the work performed.
The roadmaster, who was called as a
witness, corroborated that statement,
and testified that the longest inter
val between the trains during the
day was one hour. In addition to
the hity-hve schedule trains there
were often as many more special ones.
It was also shown that the portion
of the road upon which the men were
at work when arrested had originally
been a trestle, which was afterwards
filled in. It then became necessary
to remove the stringers and relay
the track solidly upon cross-ties on
the embankment itself. After argu
ment by counsel the Magistrate dis
charged the men, with the remark
that since the controversy began he
was of the opinion that the work was
a matter of necessity.
