THE GERMANS AQA1N8T GRANT.-Tho
Cincinnati Enquirer thus alludes to the
gathering dangers which begin to environ
Grant's UH pim lions forre-eleotiou:
"Sinon tho brilliant Carl Schurz has
broken with Gruut, and it is seen that he
will carry with him a large proportion of
the German vote, the President und his
friends in the Sunnte cannot conceal
their hatred of the entire foreign ele?
ment. It cropped out yesterday in the
remarks of Nye, tho Nevada buffoon,
who sneeringly alluded to Mr. Sohurz's
foreign birth as a convincing argument
that he knew nothing of statesmanship,
or the principles of Republican Govern?
ment. And then Mr. Nye, a native
born statesman, (I) added his concep?
tion of 'the true spirit of American in?
stitutions.' He said that for his part he
'would never consent to give the rebel
leaders a right to Uko ruii in the Go?
vern mont. He would kee,. : /em brows?
ing on the outside till their hair grew as
long as Nebuchadnezzar's, and if that
was not statesmanship, then he did not
know anything about it.' Thereupon
there was mirth in the Senate. The
country will agree-with'Mr. Nye that he
doesn't know anything about it. Pro?
fane people, would call his atatesmsoship
damphoolishuess. "
DEATH FROMVACCINATION.-That, death
may bo caused by vaccination from the
prematuro use of vims, cannot be de?
nied. Tho Morrow County (Pa.) Regis?
ter, of January 20, relates the following:
Death from rather a singular causo re?
sulted to oue of the citizens of Perry
Township, this County, on Friday morn?
ing last. As near as we oan learn them,
the facts are us follows: Mr. Samuel
Miller and his wife, residing not far from
N. Woodbury, were being visited at their
home by their son and bia family, OD
Sunday, the 7th instant. The old gen?
tleman-Mr. M.-concluded to be vacci?
nated with virus from the little girl's
arm, which had been operated on by the
doctor not loDg before. So Mr. Miller
had his Bon to pierce his arm with a
pocket knife, and from his daughter's
arm, vims was taken and placed in Mr.
Miller's arm, whioh resulted in his death
in less than a week, os the virus taken
from the girl's arm was ased before the
laws of nature permitted. Mr. Miller's
I wife was vaccinated in the same way,
and at tho prosent time is in a very low
I condition.
MURDEROUS ASSAULT ON THE ISRA?L?
ITES IN ROUMANIA.-A barbarously mur?
derous assault has just been perpetrated
against the Jews resident in Ismail, OD
the Roumanian frontier. Macy Israel?
ites were killed, aud the survivors, who
are for the most part womoa and chil?
dren, have Hod from the noone of slaugh?
ter rind sought shelter OD tho Turkish
territory. The officers of the Sultan,
uoting in exact aoonrdftDCO with tho
spirit of liberality which characterizes
tho Government of their imperial mas?
ter, afforded tho exiles relief. The re?
petition of those- note of frontier vio?
lence on account of class, casto and reli?
gion will eventually compliuate the Rou?
manian Government with the surround?
ing great powers, and this io a very se?
rious manaor for tho executive of tho
principalities. Tho persecution of tho
Israelites in the locality referred to has
boen conducted persistently, with moro
or less open activity, during the psst
four years.
A peculiarity has been discovered in
the immense raft whioh obstructs the
Red River for maoy miles. Unlike most
rafts, it moves up the rivor instead of
dowD, the motion being at the rate of
about two milos in a year. The expla?
nation of this retrograde movement is
that the logs of the lower end of the
raft aro continually broken away and
carried off by the floods and freshets,
while tho other ond is constantly receiv?
ing additioas. Thus tho raft, always
fulling away at one end and growing at
the other, gradually moves up the rivor,
and it is calculated that it hus moved
nineo its forming about 400 miles. In
1833, whoo the raft was 121 miles long,
tho work of romoving it was commenced
by the Government, bot after working
at it for twenty-two years, the attempt
was abandoned as impraoticablo, end
was coutinod to opening some of the
lateral cluiuucls, so as to facilitate navi?
gation.

The Tichborne caso, like most other
sensations, has become infections. A
story cornea to ns from England of a
gentleman who left his newly-married
wife to seek a fortune in the East India !
provinces. In conree of time news came
to him of the death of his wife, whioh
was attested by what seomed inoonteeti
ble evidence. He remained in Calcutta
nearly as core of years, and then returned
to England crowned with honors and a
fortone which would have surrounded
the bride of twenty years before with all
the luxuries for whioh tho husband had
expatriated himself to obtain for her.
And he had scarcely reached his native
village before a female recognized him
as the husband in faot, and, strangely
enough, corroborated ber assertion, not
only by numerous witnesses, but by the
most minute details of the days that had
preoeded their marriage, and the halcyon
hours that attended tho honeymoon.
This was not so bad, but successively
five other women entered the same plea,
and proved by no less indubitable evi?
dence of persons and events their show
of justioe to his nama and fortune. On
the other hand, the unfortunate gentle?
man repudiates the damaging oharge
thuB thrust upon him, by the testimony
of witnesses hom India, who knew him
intimately at the time these several en?
gagements were said to huvo beeu enter- !
ed upon, and establishes a conclusive
alibi as to his absence ut the respective
periods of tho putativo wedding ceremo?
nies. Thc evidence in tho hexagonal af?
fair is a! ko clear aud unimpeachable,
and it may bo that it is au extraordinary
caso of mistaken identity. It is not said
whether tho case will bo brought iuto
court, but if so thu annuls of causes cele
br*s could hurdly adduce a moro singular
series of events. That is, if the story,
us it comes to un, is not un ing?nions
hoax, whioh it is very possiblo it is.

SOMETHING WORTH KNOWING. - It is
worth while to know how to stop bloed
ing from tho nose when it becomes ex?
cessive. If the fiugor is pressed firmly
upou the little artery which supplies
blood to the Bide of tho face affected,
the result in accomplished. Two small
arteries, branching up from the main ar?
teries on each side of thu neck, uud pass?
ing over the outside of the jaw-bone,
supply tho face with blood. If tho nose
bleeds from tho right nostril, for exam
plo, pass the finger ulong tho edge of the I
right jaw till the beating of the artery is
felt. Press hard upon it and the bleed?
ing will ceaso. Continuo tho pressure
five minutes, until the ruptured vessel
in the nose has time to contract.
