v—■? i. »AiLY PRESS 1*0 BTLAN A» WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER 18, 1871 A Speck of "ar* While the President of the United States and the Governor-General of Canada are associating on the most Itiendly terms lor the purpose of giving eclat to an event that is to strengthen the friendly rela lio s oi the two countries, it is most in opportune and uulortuuale that a British mau-of-war should be cruising along the coast, tying in wait for aAankee schooner, while a naval force is dispatched by our own authori-ies “to uphold the diguity of the American flag.” It is distressing to reflect that even a little matter of this kind may, by briu-ing on a collision through the agency of hot-headed naval officers, embroil the two countries in serious difficulties, and indeed in war. The “E. A. TIorton” is a little fishing schooner which was seized {by the Canadian government for violatien of the fishing laws, aud carried into the iport of Guysboro, Nova Scotia. On Sunday of last week she was “cut out” by her audacious Yankee master with the assistance of his friends, and is now eluding the pursuit of outraged John Bull. So here is a genuine, serious international complication, requiring the action of the chief executive of both countries. This is the state ot things that the Canadians talk of perpetu ating for the sake of keeping their neighbors from participating in their fisheries. If they conclude to reject the treaty of Washington, so far as it is applicable to the fishery ques tion, they must not expect that a good provi dence wil1 always iu the 1utare,as,iu the past) prevent dangerous complications from grow ing out ot British and American rivalry on tlje fishing grounds. The situation will bt out of constant danger. “Rumors of war,” al least, wi.l be constantly exciting the appre hension of the public. Just now, were it liol for this wretched little Horton affair, the feel ing between England and the United States would be exiclient. The English are grate ful to our authorities for so promptly arrest ing that comical Fenian foray over the border iu Manitoba. The international festivities attending tne opening of anew line of com munication are catau'ated to soothe the feel ings of the distinguished men who participate in them. We hope that any serious trouble miy be avoided by mutual forbearance. Vice-President Colfax concluded to go home to South Bend from Boston instead ol coming “Down East.” The fleet bearing the Grand Duke Alexii is now expected every hour at New York Forward, toadies! County Supervisor. We understand that Mr. J. 13. Webb, County Supervisor ol Schools, has resigned that position. The name of his successor has not yet been an nounced, and we do not hear the name of any candidates. Gen. Grant’s personal appearance is finely described in the letter frond our Washington correspondent which is printed on the first page. The bisorical parellel be draws be tween the detractors of Washington and those ot Grant is also instructive. It is pitiful to find the whole Stale of Mas sachusetts still agitated over the question of Butler and anti-Butler. The fact that the friends of the Essex member carried a cau cus in Sprhigfiel I the other night is the occa sion of long articles in all the papers. The Maine Standard and other Democrat ic papeis speak in terms cf ridicule and d‘s paragement ot the President on the occasion ot his visit to Maine. We are sorry ourbieth ten teel so, because the exigencies of the case will require them to leel unpleasantly till the 4th of March, 1877. when Piesident Grant will reitre from office. The Civil Service Commission, of which George William Curtis is chairman, resumed its deliberations yesterday. What consterna tion it would create arnoug a certain class oi politicians, if it should be found that the Com mission is able, notwithstanding the technical difficulties interposed by the Attorney Gen eral, to accomplish something valuable. The (act that a Radical of Radicals like Bradlaugh, declares his Queen insane and demands a republic has not quite the author ity of an act ol Parliment to the same effect, but it shows that the democratic leaders in England are assuming a boldness that is born eitiiei of well-grounded confidence or fool hardiness. We hope it is not the latter. About twenty-four miles ot the gap of sev enty live miles that now remains to be filled in order to establish rail communication be tween Halilax and Bangor will be filled by January. The contract has been made for ballasting the entire distance between Am herst and Truro, so that it is pret'y certain that there wul be a pretext for more excur sions next summer. Fbie.vd Lang of this state has returned from his successful colonization of one hun dred and titty North Carolina Cherokees at Fort Gibson, Indian Territory, re Indians favorably received by tribes, comloitably situated, and surruuuuou „ith abundance of game and pro ductive land. The government will as soou as practical transfer the remainder of the North Carolina Indians, nearly 1800 in num ber, to the same reservation. The Secretary of the Navy has set a good example for college presidents by summarily expelling from the Naval Academy at Annap olis several cadets who were guilty of “baz mg” and otherwise maltreating a younger ca det. Such discipline as this is just what is needed in our llaiue colleges. Aeademii ruffianism is,just as bad as “border ruffianism’ and a good deal more iuexcusable. The Boston Advertiser has a very pleasam conceit in reference to the language which the Legislature used in giving the whole residue ol our Maine lands “to the European and North American Railroad for the defense of the Northwestern frontier.” It says “Per haps the words of the legislative act meant more than they supposed. May not the rail way bring nearer the day when we shall push out the frontier, by a peaceable aot ol annex atitn, to the Gulf of St. Lawrence, and thus provide a delei.se of our great country againsl the assaults ol the world Later developments of the Ohio senatorial question are more favorable to the cause ol Mr. Sberman. Politicians from that State, within a day or two, state that Mr. Garfield might be a dangerous competitor were he not supposed to be destined for the chairmanship of the ways and means committee. Mr. Schenck being out of the country is out of the rice. Mr. I'elano, it is generally understood, does not now contemplate entering the cam paign in earnest, and Judge Bingham, while willing to exchange the House for the Senate, is not likety to make a serious effort for the privilege this winter, so Mr. Sherman seems sure of easy victory. Gf.n. Butuer is gratifying his taste for mischief by declaiming against the treaty of Washington. He represents that the more experienced British diplomatists completely outwitted our Commissioners, and that when a balance is stiuck between the findings of the Geneva and Washington Commissions it will be toutid that we have been cheated Perhaps there may be unsophisticated people that wi 1 believe Ben’s version of the story, but we think he has not yet foung a large number of converts to his greenback theory or his notion that a war is the best means of making peace with England. All distinctive ly Butlerian iteas fall tQ the ground. I'olilUnl Nolen. All ot Gen. Hancock’s friends have not de serted him in consequence of the Democratic defeat in Pennsylvania. The Boston Herald says that it seems as il his name was neces sary to carry tiiat great State. We should say so. General Harris cn chairman of the Ohio Re publican State Committee, writes that Gov Noyes will have 24,000 majority and that the Republicans will control each branch of the Legi'lature, thus retaining the Congressional apportionment. It is.estimated that the Re publican vote in Ohio was diminished fully 5000 by the Chicago fire. The Republican majority in Iowa is stated to be 42,000, and senator Carpenter says that Wisconsin is good for 10,000 in November. The Ohio State Senate is composed equally 1 of Republicans and Democrats. The Repub- i licans would have had a clear majority hut 1 for the refusal ot the Democratic inspectors of Jefferson township, Montgomery county, to receive the votes of the maimed and crip pled veterans whose home is the military asylum near Dayton. Six hundred of them offered their votes, and these being rejected opened a poll aud cast them. Their votes, if counted,elect the Republican nominee. The Democrats are “reformers” in Mary huid, as elsewhere. Since they came into power in that State, County taxes have doubled. Thk K. A. Hortou was first seized near St. George, N. S., by Capt. Tory, of the Dotnin l ion cutter Sweepstakes, and taken toGuys borough to await the decision ot the Admiral ty Court lor violation of the fishery laws. As is the case with these seized vessels, hei rig ging, all hut the standing, her sails, her com passes, aud in fact, all her movable property, w-ie taken out aud stowed away. She was full of tare mackerel, was about to return to Gloucester, her port, aud was owned by Mc Kenzie, Kuowltou Co., which firm had a vessel seized iu the same port aue year ago.— She was a new cralt, aud a fine oue ot her class. The story ol her escape is substantial ly as follows, according to a Gloucester letter: A schooner from Gloucester, (whose name aud owners are known, but not given for obvi ous reasons,) was cruising about the harbor tlm kliirliin luv on.l it w\a eio4ah*vii to take tbe vessel bouie if possible. To do this, i it was necessary to gain tbe help of some Do- iniuion pilot, aud one acquainted with the lay of the laud and wafer. An old smuggler, so called, was found williug to assist, and took his oath to keep all the proceedings secret. The crew of the cruising schooner were told of the undertaking, and a call lor volunteers made. Every man was on hand, and ready to light, if need be, tor some ot these very men had been captured only a year before,aud were on the qvi trive to gain their revenge. Six men were chosen, aud these went on shore and were hidden for several days in a barn among tbe bay, waiting for au opportunity to run the Horton off Adverse aud bead winds, storms, &c.. delayed them, and last of all tbe “old smuggler” who bad been feeding them during tbe intervening time, fell from a shed and broke one or both his legs. It was then feared that tbe endeavor must fai.', but tbe “old pi rate” was equal to tbe emergency, and called in another moral character, and his son, who would “do tbe thing" in his place. At last tbe night came wbeu tbe wind, tide aud everything seemed to be in lavor of tbe tisher lads, aud wbeu it was late into tbt night they stole down to the vessel and stole into tue storeroom where the riggiug, sails, com passes, &c., were stored, stole them and stole away. Wbeu they had reached the ship with tbe traps all secured, it was found they bad taken the wrong fixiugs, and these belonging to another vessel. As they oid not wish to oe called thieves, they went back and changed, this time getting the right ones, the Horton’s owu clothes. The sails were fastened by the bolts and riugs aloue, and all expedition was shown, even in arranging the light tackling.— But alas! wbeu it was tried to get under way, it was found that the vessel was stuck, aud was drawing several more inches tbaunvere to be baJ at that state ot the tide. Over goes tbe anchor into tbe long boat, aud sooo it is buried •u the British mud far ahead of the craft. Tbe six men pull her away from her prison, aud soon under lull sail, though but lightly bitch ed, she goes out of the harbor a flying. Where she is, no oue knows for certaiu, but hourly she is expected at this port. Her aider and abettor in the escape has be come her forerunner, aud brought these details to tbe excited village. This vessel says that she was boarded by two revenue cutters in Dominion waters, while she w s endeavoring to laud tbe man aud boy who bad acted as pi lots to ihe Horton. She bad taken these men from the Horton and had agreed to land them, but it was oulv by tbe most uuwouted “cheek" that the opportunity could be gained. She first rau in alongside the revenue cutter aud dropped anchor. On being boarded, told a stia'ght iorward stoiy 10 listen to, but a slight tin 10 tell, and after a second boarding, under cover t night, got the man and bov usooreand started tor home, reaching this port Home days igo. Her crew, which, consisted of men and boys, fifteen all told, was diminished by the six who remaiued Irom Wednesday night un til Sunday “ali among the hay,” aud then got the Horton away. The Plot to Assassinate Alexis.—The New York Tribune says that a secret meeting of prominent Poles, resideut iu New York and surrounding cities, was held Monday,and steps were taken to avert a danger said tc threaten tho Grand Duke Alexis on bis arrival in that city. The animosity with which every Pole regards the royal lamily of Russia is well known aud it is asserted that some of the most ignoraut anJ violent of the race here have formed a conspiracy to insult and perhaps as s^ssinate the son ot the Czar during his so journ as a guest of the city. While trustwor thy doails are lacking, there is no doubt that the insane idea has been entertained by. a few madmen. No knowledge of it lias, however, yet reached the police, but douotless precautions will be taken to save the oily irom the disgrace of a demonstration which could accomplish no good end. It is not probabie that the conspiracy was in any sense a formidable one, or inspired by any oth er than a morbid dislike to see a Russian Prince honored in an Americau city, aud it will probably be entirely checked by the re spectable members ot tlis race, who discounte nance any such action. It is evident that the idea of assassination is an exaggeration ot the actual purpose, aud was never seriously enter tained even by the most desperate. But even a slight demonstration of an insulting charac ter would be very impolitic on the part of the Poles tbemselves, aud embarassing to our citi zens. Manchausen at the Fires —Among all the accounts of the fires that we have seen none compare in point of extravagance with the following in relation to that which oc curred at Peshtigo, Wisconsin, on the 8th iust.: An ominous roaring sound was first heard, then fire fell in different parts of the town igniting whatever it touched. The whole pop ulation were then seized with a panic, caught up their childreu aud fled to the river aud oth er places tor safety. Shortly after a horrible toruado euveloped everything in fire, smoke, hot sand aud ciuders. Those who bad not then reached the river were suffocated and burned before they could advance many steps. The storm was a flame borne by a hurricane accompanied by electrical sparks aud electri cal flashes in the air and danced ovur the whole earth. It lasted only halt an hour but the buildings and woods burned all night. Aoout 150 tied to a low meadow below the bridge aud were all saved. A large number took refuge ia a mill pood where they kept themselves under water constantly wetting their heads to keep from roasting. Some were drowned by cattle fleeing to the pond and trampling them down. The tornado came from the southwest and was about ten miles wide, sweeping every vestige of fences, build ing aud timber before it with fire. The editor of the Menominee Herald states that over fifteen huudred meu, women and ch'ldreu were burned to death in the tornado in Wisconsin. AH root crops and provisions were destroyed in seven counties of Wisconsin and throughout the western portion of Michi 1 gau. ___ The following anecdote of Gen. Sheridan sounds rather like a fabrication. His private house on Wabash avenue was visited by many members of the Chicago Common Council dur ing Tuesday, all desiring to have the General proclaim martial law aud relieve them Irom the duty of protecting the city. At last Gen. Sheridan became angry, and belched forth in the tollowiug style at ex-Goveruor Oglesby, Mayor Mason and other leading members of the city government: How much longer are you d—d fools goinc lo annoy nter w ny uon t you call upon the citizens to organize and patrol the city? Here last night, when every-ol you was in bed 1 was patrolliug the streets with my officers.— We saw^the flames bursting from a house on Thirty-first and Butteifleld streets, and with out waiting fo; help, we rushed into the house, seized the water pitchers, and threw their con tents on the fire; then we tore the house to pieces and trampled out the Are. We expect to be on duty again to night aud every night until people can rest easy. I will have seven hundred iulanrry here to-moriow, and will take charge ol the burned district; but until then I will not relieve you of your responsibil ity. The delegation withdrew in disgust. The President Angry.—Alter the cere mony of layiug the corner-stone of the Boston PoBtoffiee was over the crowd surrounded General Grant desiriug to shake hands with him. For a minute the President smiled grimly, and grasped as many hand* as was practicable in the moment of time allowed lie iore the starting of his carriage. As be moved away and the tentacular crowd parted, the President was observed as he looked over his left shoulder to wear an expression compound ed ol physical anguish and rage. It appeared that some one ol the multitudinous hand shakers, uniting brutality w tb muscularity, had assaulted the President by an unmerciful grip born of admiration or malevolence. The hero of the Wilderness, as he looked over bis shoulder and compressed bis lips, appeared very much as 'I he would like to “cliaw nn” ""n.u.uppuraum, De teamed 60 miio. MtV VVUV)VWi Nothing prom the South.—The Boston Jerald asks why we do uot hear of any contri butions for Chicago from tbe South? The >outh is poor, but no community in the coun ry is too poor to show its charitable spirit in a ime like this. Does it withhold its charity be- ;ause Chicago is a Northern city, or is it be- J )ause the people lack public spirit and have no eaders to set a charitable example, or to or ganize a system of benevoleuce? Joshua S. Bean, of Fisberville, N. H., whose back was broken by a bale of cottou being thrown on him from his cart on Monday, died yesterday from his injuries. State JNewts, ANDROSCOGGIN COUNTY. During a quarrel, Wednesday night, 11th inst., at a saloon in Nashua, N. H., Louis Jac quett tired a pistol shot at Charles F. Lord, a visitor in the city, from Lewiston, woundiug him in the hip.

After January 1st, the Wiscasset Seaside Oracle will be enlarged aud published weekly. YORK COUNTY. Miss Susau Staples, of Eliot, was arrested in Kittery Monday foreuoou, charged with set ting fire to tbe stoie of Messrs. Ireland Sweat, Kittery foreside, on Saturday uight last. The hearing was before Justice Dennett, ot Kittery, aud while the testimony was abun dant, much of it was of a circumstantial char acter. Tbe Court, however, considered the ev idence sufficient to warrant the bolding the accused in the sum of $2000 to await trial at the next session of the criminal Court in York County. Tne testimony of tbe defence elicited some statements, which if true, will afford a clue to (be secret of the systematic depreda tions of the last two or three months, in Kit tery and the vicinity.

The primary cause ot Consumption is derangement ot the digestive organs. Thisderangement produces deficient nutrition and assimilation. By assimila tion 1 mean mat process by which the nutriment ol the lood is converted into blood, and thence into the solids of the t ody. Persons with digestion thus im paired, hiving tlie slightest predisposition to pul monary disease, or If they take cold, will be very li able to h*ve Consumption o' the Lungs hi some ot Its forms; and I hold that it wiM be impossible to cure rtiiyj-aseo |Lonsuniption without first restoring a good digestion and healthy assiuiila ion. The verv first thing to be done is to cleanse ihe stomai h and bone's from all oiseased mucus and slims wiich is logging lhese organs so that they cannot perform their func tions, and then rouse up iiii'i restore the liver to a healthy action For this purpose, tbe suirst and best remedy is Sclienck's Mandrake Pills These Pills cleanse the stomach and bowe's oi all the dead and morbid slime that is causing disease and decay in the whole sjsem. They willcle.ir out ihe liver ol all diseased bile that has accumulated there, and arouse it up to a new and hea ty action, by which natmal amt healthy bile is secreted. The stomach,dowels and liver are thus cleansed by ilie use ol Soh nek’s Mandrake Pills; but *here re mains iu the stomach *n excess ol acid, the organ I is torpid, and the appetite is poor. In tbe bowels,the lacteals are weak, and require strength and support. It is in a condition like this that Sclienck’s Stawetd Tonic proves to »>e the must valuable remedy ever discoveted. It is alkaline, and iis use wilt neutralize all excess ot a-id. making the s nmach sweet ami iresli; it will give petmanent tone to tuis important organ, aud create a good, hearty appetite, and pre paretlie system for tbe tiist process ot a good digestion ami ult>ma ely make good, bealihy, living bio >d.— Aitcr this preparatory treatment, what remains 10 cure most (uses ot Consumption is tbe tree and per severing use ot ScheniVs Pnunonic Syup. Tbe Pulmouic byrup nouiisbes the system, purifies tbe blood, and is teudily absorbed into the circulation, aud iliem-e distriouied to the diseased mugs There it ripens a'l morbid matters, whether in the form ol abscesses or tubercles, and then assists Nature to expel a’l the diseased matter in the form of free ex pec toi at ion, woen once it ripenB. Tt is then, by tbe great healing and putifying properties ot Sclienck’s Pulmonic Syiup, that all ulcers and cavities are heal The essential thing to be done in curing Consump tion is to ge> up a go »d appreite and a good digestion so that ibe body will grow in flesh and get strong.— If a person has diseased lungs, a cavity or abscess there, the cavity cannot heal, tl e matter cannot rip >u 1 i-_ :i> i ii< 'torn is below par. Wha» is nec «*ssat roTTlTT- T» >d tne, gooa nutrition, he body io grow in flesh ano get fat; thi n Nature is helped, the cavities will heal, ibe ma ter wiil ripen and be thrown ott *n Urge i]nani ities, aud the person regain health and strength This is the true and only plan to cure Consumption, and if a person s very had, it the lungs are not en tiieiy destroyed, or even it one lung is entirely gone, ii there is enough vitality leti in the other to heal up there is hope. 1 have seen many persons cured with oniy one sou d lung, live and enjov life to a good old age.— l liis is what Sclienck’s medicines will do to curt Consumption. They will mean out the stomach, sweeteu and strengthen It get up a good digestion, and give Nature the assistance she Deeds to clear the sys em ot alt the disease that is in the lungs, what ever lire form may be. It is important mat, while using Schenck’s medi clues. care should be exercised not to take cold: keep in- »oors in cool and damp weather; av id night air, and take out-door exercise only in a genial and warm sunsbiue I wish it distinctly understoou uat when I recom mend a patient to be rareiul iu regard to taking cold while using wv niediciue. I do so ior a special lea sou. A man who has but pariiallytrecovereJ (tom the eftects of a bad cold is tar more liable to a relapse thau one who has hem entirely cured, and it is pre cisely the same in regard to consumption So long as the lungs are not perfectly healed, jnst so long is ihere imminent danger ot a mil return of the dis ease. Hence it Is that 1 so strenuously caution pul monary patients against exposing themselves to an atmosphere that is not genial aud pleasant. Con firmed consumptives' lungs are a mass ot sores, which the least change of atmosphere will lud irne. The gran i secret o* my success w ith my medicines consists in my ability to subdue inflamatiou instead ol provoking it, as many ot the faculty do. An in flamed lung cannot with safety to the patient, be ex posed lo the biting blasts <>i winter or tbc coiling winds of spring or autumn. It should be careiul ly shielded irom all irritating influences. The utmost caution should be observed in this particular, as without it a cure under almost ary circumstances is an impossi bility. i lie person slionld be kept on a wholesome and nu tricious diet, and all the medicines continued until the body has restored to it ihe natural quantity oi flesh and strength. I was my elf cured by this treatment ot the worst kind oi Consumption and have lived to get »at aud hearty these many years.with one lung mostly goue. 1 have cured thousands since, and very man> have been emeu by this treatment whom I have never seen About the first ot October I expect to iake posses sion ot my new building at the north-east corner of Sixth and Arch streets, where 1 shall be pleased to give advice to all who may require it. Pull directions accompany all my remedies,so that a persou in any part ot the woi id can be reauily cured by a strict observance oi the same. *1. H. SuHCNCK, M. D.. Philadelphia. GEO.
