Yesterday a pleasure party started I rum tlio Jossey House, in Oecutur, to visit Stone .Mountain. Among the party was Mrs. \V. (J.

The children were moving rapidly, when, without any warning, Hinmio slipped from the steep and almost perpendicular side of mo mountain, l ining about litres nunureu loot, when, by great presence of mind, she hi maged to eateh a little shrub and cling to the mossy sides of the mountain, her foot resting on a space of about fifteen inches of glutted rook.

A Si.kbimnu Caii Incidbnt.?Am amusing affair occurred on the lieo Lino train which arrived hero yesterday morning.? The train passed through Union (Jity about !{ o'e'ock, wiicn the passengers were aroused by the piercing shrieks of a passing locomotive. At the same time a woman's scream ochoccLArough the sleeping car. The first scream Souuded like an echo, but the secoud'nud third admitted of no doubt. The sleeping car conductor and porter started from different ends of the car almost simultaneously, running towards each other and the sound, which came from one of the middle berths. A woman was found sitting on the edge of her berth, hull'screaming, not having yet full; awakeued. As soon as she could collect her senses she in- j i:.?.....! .......1.,.. .......

Tito man in ' 11 not ion was dragged from his quarters by J the indignant passengers, who by this time had taken in the situation, lie explained that he had been up alter a drink, and that on returning the motion of the ear had pitched him inl> her berth. The passenu-ms thought his explanation very thin, j and the young lady was evidently of the same opinion, for she reached back under her piliow and drew a silver mounted revolver. which she cocked and levelled lull at his head. '"Now," said she, '"get down on your knees and beg my paidon,or 1 will blow your brains out. 1 carry this revolver lbr just such dirty, cowardly dogs as von. I town!" That fellow couldn't get down on his knees too quick, and right there in the aide he made an abject apology for his attempted outrage, promising to write to the lady's lather in ^t. Louis as additional penance. The picture of the young woman pointing a revolver at the kneeling figure in a night shirt, in front of her. nervously lingering the trigger, with a dozen spectral figures standing around, and as manv heads thrust from adiaecnt berths. would have afforded a study for an artist. ?

Don't fail to preserve it : A correspondent of n Victoria paper writes ; ''Should any of your family be attacked with diphtheria do not be alarmed, as it is usually speedily cured without a doctor. "When it was rnzinz in Knzland a few years ago, I accompanied Dr. Field on liis round 10 witness tlio so called wonderful cures lie performed while the patients of others dro ped offou all sides. The remedy to be so rapid must be simple. All betook with him was powdered sulphur and a cjuill, ami with these he cured every paticutc without exception, lie put a teaspoonful of Hour of brimstone into a winei glass t?f water and mixed it with his linger instead of a spoon ; as the sulphur does not j readily amalgamate with water. When the sulphur was well mixed he gave it as a gargle, and in ten minutes the puticut was out of danger. Jiriuistouc kills every spcI eies of fungus in a man, beast and plant, iu ! a few minutes. Instead of spitting out tlic gargle he recommended the swallowing of ! it. In extreme cases in which he had been called just in nick of time, when the fungus was too ucatly closing 'o allow the gargling, lie blow the sulphur through a ipiill into the throat, and alter the fungus had shrui.k to allow of it then the gargling. If the patient cannot gargle, take a live coal, put it oil a shovel and sprinkle a spoonful or two of the Hour of brimstone at a j time ou it ; let the sufferer inhale it, holding the head over it, and the fungus will (lie. 1 f plentifully used, the whole room 1 may he tilled to suffoeatim, and the patient j will be able to walk about in it, inhaling i the fumes, with the doors and windows closed. The mode of fumigating a room | with sulphur has often cured most- violent : attacks of cold in the head, chest, etc., and ! is also recommended in cases of cousump j tion and asthma."
