The Democrat. FRIDAY, AUGUST 10,1880. CHICAGO now claims to cover more ground than any other city in the Union. Higiibi: rates and an increasing demand for money are reported all over the West, England has over §1,000,000 invested in the manufacture of idols for heathen countries. Gbbat Britain believes in subsidies, and has paid since 1840 upwards of $250,000,- 000 to protect and foster her commerce on the ocean. Tiik Philadelphia Record says: The euchre-playing Captain of the Black Dia mond proposes to order up the ten-spot of spades on Blaine, and play him for dam ages. The serene skipper thinks he holds two jacks and an ace, and he proposes to show mankind what he knows about a joker. Tiiei'.e is an uncertainty about the He publican candidate for Govornor next year. No one can now tell how the saviour of the G. O. P. will choose. It is not ex actly known who the great fisherman will cast his gubernatorial line for, so the boys will have to keep cool and wait till he throws his line. DECLINATION OF MORMON HIER ARCHY. Hitherto, the Mayor and Councils of Salt Lake City have been completely under control of the Mormon Church, but last week the Mormons were de feated tor the first time since Utah Terri tory was organized, The result of the late election will place the next muni cipal Government of Salt Lake City into the hands of the Gentiles. After the first of February next the Mormon Ilierachy will decline and its Polygamic institutions will no longer prevail. MUMMY INSTEAD OF UISAItTITH It was not for dynamite that the En glish Custom ITouso officials searched the Pinkstoniau American official's trunk, but for the mummy of Eliza Pinkstou, which he carries with him as a mascot. The Pinkstonian docs not carry dynamite, which the English knew, but their search was for the mascot which he is supposed to carry with him, the mummy of Eliza Pinkston. This was an outrage on the part of the "Free Trade" England offi cials, and it is no wonder the "honest" Pinkstonian was almost mad enough to thrash the British lion and all its cubs. QUAY AND HALSTKAD. Quay's candidacy for President, and Halsteud's candidacy for the United States Eenatorship so early in advance, r very important. Quay's candidacy for the Presidency, and Halstead's candidacy for the Senate, assume a decidedly personal aspect. Halstead's entrance into the Sen ate would be to Quay a bull with hay on his horns. Quay, who voted against Hal stead's confirmation, would hustle around in that body upon Halstead's entrance. Halstead merits the Republican party's highest honors, and if honest merit should dominate in Ohio this fall iu that party, the Pennsylvania brave will shud der in liis boots. Halstead's rejection for Minister to Germany was a disgrace ful outrage of the Senate, and the Ameri can people generally sympathize with him. '• RICH, BRAZENLY RICH. • The Republican platform, broadly say* the Philadelphia Record, is " rich, bra zenly rich." In its editorial on the pro ceedings of the late Republican conven tion, it speaks forth the words of " truth and soberness" when it says: "As for the platform, it indorses High License, and thus puts the Republican party of Pennsylvania in proper alignment on the liquor question ; but people will not fail to remember that the frainers of this very platform did all they could to kill Iligh License. The poor Prohibitionist is dis missed. The Republican managers have fulfilled the Prohibitionist compact; the bargain is closed, and the Moor may now go- But is no use to enter critically upon the utterances of this Convention any more than upon the acts thereof. It. would in truth be rather silly to make much mention of the perfunctory animad versions of a parcel of insincere politicians on election frauds in the South. Greasy with fat-fry iug and rank with vote-buy ing, it is perfectly natural for the politi cians aforesaid to slick things over with a little lying about the people of the South. That's the politician's nature; he can't help it. ll would only he silly in the sight of no but would make the gods themselves smile to seriously consider the afllriiiu tion in the platform that the Republican* are trying to adjust the burdens of taxa tion in such away " that those persui and interests able to boar most sball beat most, and those able to bear least .-hall bear least." This ntllrmation may rile those who know that the whole gang at Harrisburg Wednesday are servilely tied to the apron string of their old mother Monopoly—with her tax on tlio dinner-pail, and her tax on salt, and her tax 011 knives und forks, ami her tax 011 the wool a man wears when he's cold, and her tax on hundreds of other nceessarricsof living—this platform twaddle may rile some of our friends, but us for ourselves we tbink it s inply rich—brazenly rich. THE ELIXIR OF LIFE—THE CREATES | OF ALI. DISCOVERIES. Progress is the great slogan of the cen tury. The world is making rapid strides in all directions, and thus relegating Solo mon's old saying that" there is nothing new under the sun," further and further into the back ground. Something new is turning up or rather being turned up every now and then. Astonishing as have been the practical application of steam and electricity hitherto, their possibilities as agencies seem to be limitless. But these and all other discoveries and inventions must stand asido for the latest and most astonishing in the world's history. Millions of money were spent, and years of time and devoted during the 13th, 14th and 15th centuries by celebrated ulckemists to discover the elixir of life. The signal failures of all their efforts, cuused the skeptical of the world from that time down to this year, to denounce all such attempts quite as foolish as the efforts to discover perpetual motion. Mocked at by the learned, ridiculed by the ignorant, the enterprise was given up for nearly three centuries. But, now, comes the inteligence that the discovery has at last been made. The numer ous experiments, in different parts of the world, have been so successful within the past few weeks, that incredulity has given way to absoluto belief. This won derful discovery is called Brown-Sequard's life elixir. The discoverer is not a crank, but no less a personage than Dr. Brown-Sequard, one of the most distinguished physicians of the medical profession, standing as he does at the head of the list of the emi nently successful French practitioners; and is fully backed up by Dr. Hammond, one of New York's noted scientists. The elixir is compounded of animal matter— the testes of Guinea pigs and rabbits, dis solved and mashed in distilled water and then filtered. The mode of administering it is by hypodermic injection. In every case so far reported, the effects have been of the most astonishing nature, imparting strengthening and rejuvenating powers to the aged and infirm. While acting as a stimulant, in some respects, unlike all known stimulants its effects have up to the present, not been temporary but lasting. A peculiarity about it which seems inex picable, is that only men are benefitted by it, which causes a leading Medical journal, that favors the discovery, to say, "it is a lamentable fact that it can only be ap plied to men, enabling old men to become young, and leaving women to carry their weight of years." (toe of Pittsburgh's best known physi cian's has successfully used it in the case of some old and decrepid men. He says, "So far everything has gone smoothly— the-effects having all been equally remark able. The whole body in each case seemed rejuvenated." Another eminent medical man being asked what he thought of the theory, said, " There may be some thing in it. Nothing now seems impossi ble to medical science, when.viewed in the light of the late almost miraculous discov eries. It is now possible for an expert chem ist to invent drugs to produce the desired effect. Then, when the idea emanates from a man like Dr. Brown-Sequard, there must be reason in it. For thirty five years he has been the highest author ity on biology, physiology cf the brain, and the laws of life." We have thus given the main facts about its discovery, its component parts, its effect, and the general favor with which it is regardad by distinguished medical men. Now, let us look at some things that must naturally and necessarily follow. We almost hesitate to do it, as the facts will be anything but welcome to the better half of the human race, and to several highly remunerative callings and professions. But facts are facts, and must sooner or later be faced. The first ugly tiling confronting us is, the undue preponderance it will exert in favor of the greater supremacy of the male sex—imparting youth, vigor,beauty to a played-out, decayed, withered, dry ed-up old codger, and leaving nice old ladies the subjects of wrinkles, rheuma tism and general infirmities, The thought is too intolerable to be borne 1 Think of it! When " the sixth age shifts into the lean and slippered pantaloon, witli spec tacles 011 nose, and pouch on side, his youthful liose well saved,a world too wide for his shrunk shank, and his big, manly voice turning again into childish treble, pipes and whistles in his sound "—think of rejuvevating such 1111 old stager back into the character of a " lover, sighing like a furnace, with a woful ballad made to his mistress' eye brow," and bis old wife growing ohter and older. No, no, Mr. Brown-Sequard, we don't want any of your elixir in ours. Throw such physic to the dogs. It is too Frenchy for us. Again, what would become of our churches ? The proportion of men at tending them is now small enough in al! conscience—one to about five women,and in point of sincerity of profession, about one to twenty. But with new lease of life, the number of men would soon lie so infinitesimally small, that preachers' lloeks would be conspicuous for the ab sencc of the sterner sex. But further : With half of the human race living on interminably, what sad ikivoc would be played with the incomes of druggists and doctors, and even with ie revenues of saloonists, as there would iie no longer any pretext for indulging in beer and whisky for the " stomach's sake." And the occupations of under takers und liverymen would be fully half gone. Add to all this the sore disap pointment of the nice young men, who are willing to step into the " old man's " shoes. One other grievous result must not be overlooked, and that is the evident mar ring of the pleasure experienced by mem bers of societies iu whereasing that the Lord kills all the " brothers " who are killed by their fellow-men, or who kill themselves by their own indiscretions. No, Mr. Dr. Brown-Sequard, while your elixir may be a great *liing, we are not quite ready to hanker after it. Later on, when feeling the infirmities of old age, and mankind gets used to it, we may want it. But it is too sudden, too violent, too radical a revolution for our conserva tive nature to take to all at once. But notes verrons. Sylvester Horner's Money. The story of the loss of Sylvester Hor ner's money has been generally known since the flood. Mr. Horner had a hand some residence at the corner of Stony creek and Levcrgood streets, and at the flood was floated up to Sandyvale Ceme tery. In the house there was an oil cloth satchel or valise, containing a cigar hox in which there was a lot of gold coin and bills, amounting in all to about $2,700. Mr. Horner made diligent search after the flood to recover this money, but all his efforts were without success. Some days ago Mrs. Captain Charles Butland, the mother of Mr. William 11. Grubb, and Mrs. Grubh were visiting out in the Seventh ward, when they inci dentally heard of a young man having received S4O from a person who had found some money. Mr. Grubb was told of the matter, and he thought it might possibly be some of Mr. Horner's money. Mr. Grubb proceeded to investigate the matter, and, briefly, he discovered the following: John M. Lewis, of Meadow vale, found the satchel and gave it to W. li. Weaver, who was in charge of the gang that was working where it was found. A number of the young men who were working knew about the And and were each given a portion of it, it is sup posed, to keep them quiet about the rich discovery. They received the following: Albert Orris, S4O; R. Miller, S4O; S. Rin inger, S4O; Alex. Miller, S4O ; Hiram Kcnsey, S4O; John M. Lewis, S4O; John Sullivan, $65, gone to Harrisburg; Jesse Slick, S4O, gone to Ilooversville ; Frank Mishler, S4O, and Boss Wilson, $220. Weaver and Wilson met Mr. Horner, and Mr. L. Baurner, the Chairman of the Committee on Valuables, and turned over to Mr. Horner the money in their pos session—sl,22o. This with the seoo given to the persons named amounts to SI,BOO, leaving S9OO unaccounted for. Au Attack ou the Flannel Shirt. The flannel shirt is a mockery, a delu sion and a snare. It gives to the wearer the outward appearance of a tough and disreputable person. It imparts to his feelings a perpetual heat and irritation. It scratches his neck. It clings woolily about his wrists. But more and worse than all this, it exercises a distinctly de moralizing influence upon him. Before he has worn it an hour he begins to ex perience a thirst for beer, und visions of cool cellars and foam-topped schooners tempt him. The friction of the flannel on his throat, moreover, has occult anil sinister effects. It eliminates respon sibility. It causes the victim of the flannel shirt to feel that he is only tit for a 'longshoreman's work; that's he ought to have a short pipe in his mouth or his hatband; that he has a secret affinity with water-front saloons. Doubt less a man may fight well enough in a flannel shirt, or he may fish, or cut bait, or loaf in the grass ; but he cannot invite his soul w hen so clad with any hope of adequate response. No, the ideal sum mer dress does not include, nor is it based upon, the flannel shirt. That ideal calls for coolness, softness of texture, aud ab sorbent capacity. There is nothing which surpasses the cool freshness of clean linen, and but for the baleful starch which testifies to the triumph of stupid con ventionalism over common sense, it is plain thai a linen garment offers the most hopeful foundation for that summer cos tume of the future which the coming race will wear.— New York Tribune. A Ili'Slieny's 111* lief Corps. The special Committee of Allegheny Councils appointed to organize and equip a force of men to proceed to the relief of Johnstown sufferers reported last evening that it sent 100 men to the scene, where they assisted in removing and destroying the debris. The men remained at work about one week, when they were relieved by others employed by the State. A con siderable quantity of unused material and supplies was turned over to the State, for which the city may eventually be reim bursed. The total expenses of the Committee were $2,240.71, of which sl,- 000.75 was paid to the men, and $ 1,203.90 expended for material and supplies. The expenses of the Medical Belief Corps, under the charge of Dr. U. H. Gilliford, and the detached body of men composed of Councilmcn and others, which oper ated by boat up the Allegheny River, are not included in the above statement. Accident at the Cambria Iron Company's Brickyard. The other day Mr. Conrad Hinglodin, of Cambria City, met witli a very serious and painful accident in the brickyard of the Cambria Iron Company. He was en gaged in tearing down a brick kiln, dam aged by the ilood, when the mass caved in, breaking three ribs, his shoulder blade and splintering the knee cap- The injured man was removed to the borne of his son-in-law Geo. W. Shirar, where Drs. Lowman and Tomb attended him. He is somewhat aged and will be per manently crippled. QKTTYBBVBG. What Soldier* Can Receive Free Transpor tiitiuu to the liultlelieltl.

The body of Mr. John Frank, tire Washington street saloou keeper, was fouud on Saturday morning about 10 o'clock uear his house. Together with him self, his wife, four daughters and a sou were lost. Mr. Frank was at one time an iec dealer, using the old Feud ice house, on the Johnstown side opposite Simon Young's slaughter}-. Four of the family are still missiug. The finding of Mr. Frank's remains so uear liis rcsidcuce has intensified the feel ing and made probable the belief that many unexcavated places contain remains. At first the erection of Oklahoma's and other frame dwellings without cellars were restricted to eei tain localities. Xow these restrictions are but little observed. The preservation of the health of the com munity would demand that nothing be erected where the ground is unexcavated and it is believed the Board of Health will see to this observance. Captain Hamil ton will liau tlie renaming Frank prop erty cleaied. Before buildiug on places tilled with debris it should be removed, not only on Hie sit' of private residences— where bodies probably may be found, bid also where public buildings stood as there possibly may be remains.
