RUSSIAN JEWS SENT HOME.
Fiftecia Russian Jewish families, com
prising forty-two persons, were sent back
to Europe yesterday, by the Hebrew
Aid Society. They wore paupers, and
were unable or unwilling to work, or
nopport themselves in any way, and were
returned under the pauper act. Before
being transported to llolioken, where
they were to take passage by the Steam
er Gelert they were transported in a
more pleasant way through the liberal
ity of the Society which has had so much
unnecessary trouble with them and their
fellow-countrymen. Mr. Michael Heil
prin handed to each of the returning ref
ugees, the sum of 3.00. The greacer
part of them seemed pleased at the pros
pect of reaching home again.
ANOTHER HANGING.
James F. Walch, the man who mur
dered his sweetheart, Barbara Groenen-
that several months ago, was hanged in
Brooklyn yesterday. In accordance with
his request, the bosom of his only whit
shirt had been well starched and ironed,
and he went to his death with a full
stomach, and a heart at peace with all
the world. His spiritual advisers have
no doubt that he is now anion; the an
gels.
The question is often asked, ' would
such men ever get to Heaven if they did
not help to send others to a different
place 1" And another question js asked
this morning: ' How many men witl
murder in their hearts will recall Vakh'.
fate, and stay their hand ?"
FANNY PARNELL'S DEATH.
The tidings of the death of Muss Fan
ny Parnell at Bordentown, N. J., casts
a gloom over a great many hearts in
New York, to-day. As the sister of
Chas. Stewart Parnell, the leader of the
Land League, she wis identified with
the agitator's movements, and the loss
of such a friend, is an added misfortune
to the unhappy land of her birth. She
was of slender frame, but her heart was
strong, and her energy extraordinary.
Three years ago, whin about 25 years
old, she delivered her first speech in the
city, on the subject of the famine in Ire
land; and the impressions she made will
never be effaced from the hearts of tho.se
who heard her. She was a poet of con
siderable merit.
OUR LATEST FRAUD.
The fools are not all dead yet, nor is
it probable that the race will le ex

shall cease and mortals shall be gifted
with the ability to extract sunbeams of

Nor are the frauds all gone. The ouce
celebrated physician whose sands of life
were so long running out, and who cured
his patients with cannabis indica, charg
ing nothing for advice, but a great deal
fat poison, has long since climbed the
golden stair; the discovery of the Car
diff Giant has joined the Anakim in an
other wprld; the last centenarian purse
of the immortal Washington, is crowing
lullalhes to thinly clad ang-,1 babies, a

long ears with his No. U hoots, has sub

more of him till his hay fever is cured,
and his summer vacation is over, k last,

The pseudo worker of miracles stopped
and shivered. Then with a hurried ejac

Keep a sharp lookout. He will doubt

the Secretary were always p'easant, yet
lie thought that; they would be pleasant-

Our Washington Letter.
From our Regular Correspondent.
Washington, D. C, July 29, 1882.
When the weather got right warm
this suiunier the. Sergpat-at-Arms pf
the Senate made arrangements by which
Senators and the employes of the Sen
ate were supplied with Apqllinaris and
uetnesna mineral water, jnese spark
ling beverages ; were kept in the cloak
rooms, and two; venerable descendants of
Ham were detailed to do the honors.
Plain le uonicle and lemonade with a
1 .
stick iu it wasj dispensed in lavish pro
fusion. Mf,miers of the House found
it out, and flocked over to the Senate re
tiring rooms in such numbers and with
such frequency that Senators could
scarcely get a feast?. The resuit was an
order to stop tho lemonade supply had
to bo issued. Senators complain very
much at whit they call the cheek of the
House members. It is a common cus
tom, and has been for a long 'time, for
certain members of the Houst to pass
bv the restaurant on their side, come
over to the Senate restaurant, and mo
nopolize the accommodations especially
reserved for the Senators A short time
since a House mendier from a back woods
district, with some of his constituents,
was enjoying corn-beef sandwiches and
pork and beans in one of the rooms set
aside for Senators. An aristocratic Sena
tor, known as 44 boss" at home, came iuto
the room with some of his sweU friends,
his mind intent on woodcock and cham
pagne. All of the tables were occupied.
Glancing with an expression of disgust
at the pork and beans, he expressed his
indignation in audible terms at the pres
ence of the intruders. But the back
wpods memler, not at all abashed, liehl
his place, and asserted with emphasis
that tho Representatives of the people
had as much right in that room as Sen
ators. It is said that there is a probability
of criminal, as well as civil, proceedings
arising out of the alleged libels circula
ted iu the so-called Grand Army Jour
nab paper which was started for the
express purpose, against Senator Ferry,
of Michigan. It is charged that the
whole thing was in the interest of Jay
Hubbell's candidacy for United States
Senator to succeed Mr. Ferry, and that
Mr. Ferry was now in possession of facts
to show a conspiracy to injure him by the
circulation of a pafer tilled with liliels a
gainst him. The Postoffie Department
has refused to permit any more of the
44 Ferry" edition of the Journal go
through the mails. The menager, or mo
gul, of the Grand Army Journa7, A. T.
Bissell, is the notorious individual who,
under the nom de plume of 44 X," treated
the readers of the comatose Gazette to the
Sherman treasury literature. It i said
that ten thousand copies of this black
mailing sheet containing no less than
seven longolumns, devoted to a personal
and brutal attack upon the Senator were
sent broad cast over the State of Miehi
gan, with the hope or lifting Jay HuMiell
into the Senatorial shoes. The feeling
about the matter is intenfco iu the city
and it is hoped by every one here that
Mr. Hubbell has by this tinre dug his
own grave.
The general belief in the Senate is
that the tax reduction bill is dead for
the season, though Senator Morrill his
said that he intends to move to take it
up ag iin as soonis the naval appropri
ation Kill is out of the way. The pre
vailing belief, however, is that if he
makes such a motion he will fail, as the
sundry civil bill next claim the atten
tion of the Senate. The republican Sen
ators understand that the House would
not pass the bill as amended, and this
fact acts as a damper upon its prospects.
The talk now is that Congress will ad
journ perhaps by the last of next week.
The indications in the Senate to-day are
that the motion to recommit the naval
appropriation IhII, wkh instructions to
strike out all legislation relating to reor
ganization, will prevail, and if it does
that will undoubtedly delay the adjourn
ment of Congress. The House is evi
dently stubliorn in its adherence to this
legislation in the naval bid, and if will
not yield without a sharp struggle.
Should the Senate recommit the bill that
will bring about another conflict with
the House in addition to the two now
existing. There is the matter with the
Senators mileage in the deficiency bill,
and also that of the transfer of surgeon
general's records in the legislative bill,
over which the two houses are now at
Io""erhead i. To make a contest oer
the naval lill may intensify the feeling
between the two houses and keep Con
gress there for several weeks vet.
A lively interest is created in the De
partments upon the subject of the polit
ical assessments. While not objecting
to the rule, ( which may be regarded as
an established one,) great dopt prevails
as tq the propriety of calling tor the two
per cent, rate from clerks who incur the
additional outlay qf CQcqrfing thtiic vote
in the yariqus States, at a cost in many
nstances, considerably larger than the
a
sscsWent itself. As a matter of jus
tice, these active workers should m ei

litional call to reinburse the double

An Interesting Chapter from the
Life of a Prominent
Bostonian.
(Boston Globs.)
The readera of this paper were more
or less amazed at a most remarkable
statement from one of "our leading citi
zens which appeared in yesterday's issue.
So unusual were the circumstances con
nect rd with it, and so much comment
did it occasion on the street and in ho
cial 'circles, that a representative of this
paper was commissioned to investigate
its detiils and verify its facts. The ar
ticle referred to was statement made by
Mr. B. F. Larrabee, of thfe New York
and Boston Dispatch Express compvnv,
whose office is on Arch street. Mr. Lar
rabee was found by the newspaper man
iu his private office, and on being ques
tioned said:
14 Well, sir, logically I have been dead,
but reallv I aln as vou can see me. A
little over a vear ago I was taken sick.
My trouble was not severe at first and
1 thought It was the result of a slight
sold. So nehow I felt unaccountably
tired at times although I took an abun
dance of sleep. Then, again, I had dull
and strange pains iu various parts of the
body. My appetite was good one day
and I had none whatever next and
my head pained me more or lets much
of the time. A while afterward 1 no
ticed much that was peculiar about the
fluids I was passing and that a sediment,
scum, and a strange accumulation up
peared in it. Still I did not vealize that
thesv things meant anything serious and
1 allowed the illness t run alcig unti
on the 28th day of October I fell pros
trate while walking along J remont
street. I was carried home and did not
o out of the house until the middle of
December. I then went down town and
attempted to attend to mv business un
til tin 13th of lash January, when I was
taken with a very severe relapse. My
symptoms were terrible. I was fearfully
bloated ; I suffered severe puns in ali
parts of my lwxly and i was almost im-
nossib'e to cret mv br-ath". ' For six davs
i .
I never laid down and never slept. J
was constantly attended by my regular
nhysieian. Dr. Johnson, and Dr. iiow
ditch also came to see me nearly every
dav. There was 110 donbt that I Was
suffering from Bright'n disease of the
kidneys in its worst form and last stages
accompanied by other troubles in my
liver and heart. In spite, however, of
the skill of the physicians, I kept grow
ing worse and finally they tapped my
s;de in the vicinity of the heart, taking
away forty-six ounces of water. Thi
relieved me for the time, but I soon be
came as bad as before. Then the doctor
gave me up entirely, declared I could
not live more than twenty-four hour
and my daughter, who was rending in
Paris, was telegraphed for.. Still I ling
ered along for several weeks, far more
dead than alive, but never giving up
hope. One night it was on the 20th
of April, I very well rememlier my at
tendant, who was reading the paper
to me, began an article which descrilied
my disease and sulferings exactly. Jt
told how some severe cases of Bright'
disease had been cured, and so clearly
and sensibly did it stats the case that I
determined to try the means of cure
which it described. So 1 sent my man
to the drug store, procured a bottle of
the medicine, unknown to my physicians
and friends, and took the tirt dose at
10 o'clock. At that time I was suffer
ing intensely. I could not sleep: I had
short breaths and could scarcely get any
air into my lungs I was terribly bloated
from head to foot, and the motion of my
heart was irregular and painful. The
next morning I was able to breathe free
ly; the pain began to leave nie and
the bloating decreased. I continued
to take the medicine, and to-day, sir, I
am as well as I ever was in my life, and
wholly owing to thj wonderful, al nosr
miraculous power of Warners Sife Kid
ney and Liver Cure. I do not know
what this madicine is made of, or any
thing else about it, but I know it saved
my life when I wis given up by the doc
tors and laf really been d,ead for we.eks;
tliat it has kpt mo in perfect lualth
ever since aud has cured many of, my
friend, tq whim I have recommended it.
There aje a number of very remarkable
cases 111 Lvnn ad Salem, as well as in
this city, that it lias cured. My recov
ery is so remarkable that it has excited
much attention, and physicians as well
as others have, investigated it thorough
ly I am glad ih y have, fpr X f f 1 tlnU
the results of s .ch a wonderful cure
should be known to the thousands in all
parts of the land who are. suffering from
troubles of the kidneys, liye'r or. heart,
in some of their many dangerous forms."
" The representative of the press
thanked M . L r abee for his very frank
and clear statement, and was about to
leave tin office when a gen tlemeu stepped
up to huu and inquired if he were sesk
ing information about Mr. Laira'ee'8
sickness ami reeoyery. The scribe- re
plied that he was, whereupon the gentle
men said:
44 Aud so am I, and I have come all
tho way from Chicago for that verv pur
pose. 'Kidney troubles seem to be alarm
ingly increasing all over the country,
and I have been to see the physicians of
whom Mr. Larrabee speaks, aud i tell
you, sir, it is simply wonderful."
14 What did they say V asked the man
of news.
44'Say ! why, sir. they fully confirm
everything Mr. Larrabee has stated.
I went to see Dr. D. A. Johnson, at 20 ,
Worcester street He was absent when
I called, and so I stepped into the Com
mon wealth hotel, where Mr. Larrabee
was living at the time of his sickness.
Messrs. Brugh & Carter are the propri
etors, and I asked them ataut Mr. Lar
ralee's case. Mr. Brugh pointed to the
electric anunnicator and said, why for
weeks and weeks every time the bell
rang I said: That means tl death of
Mr Larrabee. No one. around the ho
tel ever dreamed that he would recover
and wheu the doctors would come down
from Lis room they would shake theii
heads and say there was no hope. The
arrangements for the funeral were made
and his recovery was simply a miracle.'
' I then called on Dr. Johnson who said
that Mr. Larrabee's case was a very re
markable one. He was his family phy
sician and expected his death every hour
tor a numiier of weeks and never called
to see him during that time, but he was
prepared for it The doctor said the re
co very was due to Warner's Safe Kid
ney and Liver Cure, and if he had friends
male or female, troubled with Albumen
or any kidney troubles he should certain
ly advise them to use this remedy. Dr.
Johnson said kidney difficulties are more
common than most people 'hink and
that 111 my symptoms which are supposed
to be other diseases arise from the kid
neys. He said that ladies after gesta
tion are specially subject to albuminous
troubles which requ.re prompt attention.
Well, 1 then ca ne down and called
on Dr H. Ingersoll Bowditeh on Boyl-
ston street. The old doctor was inclined
to lie reticent but fully confi rmed all I
had previously learned. He ha 1 attend
ed Mr. Larrabee, and supposed him be
yond all hope, and lie was afterwards
restored, as he said, by Warner Safe
Ivi I ney and L:ver Cure.
I next went to see Dr. Melville E.
Webb, at the Hotel Cluny, for you see
I was determined to be thorough iu this
natter. I found Dr. Webb a most clear
h 'aded and well informed gentlemen,
md he said:
' I know of Mr. Larrabee's ease from
having thor lUghly investigated it as
medical director of Life Insurance com
pany, and it is one of the most remark
ab!e I have ever met. Mr. Larrabee
h d all the manifestations of a compli
Cition of diseases, and iu their wors
i-orms. He had ojiiumen and casts in
die urine, and a terribly diseased liver
a id spleen. Indeed, he was so bad that
:ie threw himself upon the floor, and
with his head upon a hassock, struggled
for breath. It was on the night when
'ie was so bad and when all his medical
alvisers had long given him up that h
legan useing Warner's Sife Kidney and
Liver Cure. The next morning at 10
'cIojk he was able to breathe freely,
md ha-5 been ever s:nce. I . subjected
hi 11 to the most thorough examinat'o.
possible, after his recovery, and 4 I can't
find out about him.' His kidneys, liver
unsand heart are perfectly well and
sound. I can only add that, from what
I have seen. I would unhesitatingly rec
immend thi remedy."
The conclusions from the statements
a'ove made which" come to the newspa
per man as well as the general public,
must lie two fold. First that a modern
niracle of healing has been performed
in our midst, and that, too, by the sim
plest means and one which is within the
reach of every one. It should be re
membered that Bright's disease is not
usually a sudden complaiut Its liegin
uings are slight and its growth slow.
The symptoms by which it may be de
tected are different with different per
sons, no two people usually having the
same. I Ins fact was manifest 111 the
ase of Mr. Larrabee, and he had no idea
of the terrible complaint which had at
tacked him until it liecame fixed upon
him. Stjondly, testimonials of such
high character and so out-spoken in tone
conclusively prove the value of the rem
edy and its superior nature to the pro
prietary articles with winch the public
h ive been flcKded. 44 The greater in
cludes the less," and the remedy which
has been proven so valuable and has
saved a life after it was brought down
to death's door, must unquestionably lie
certain in all minqr troubles which are
as disastrous unless taken mi Muie.
