In tho Senatorial contest, there lias been somo change since Isat night, whea the Carpenter Ton appeared decidedly in the majority, and do- termined to carry all doforo thom with a grand charge, which should boar down all oppeuition. To-day the Washburn forces have received large reinforcementa, sud Carpenter men, though claiming 9 largo majority, don't talk quite 50 much as if it were a unanimous thing, nor tell how they will reward thoir frienda and pumsh thoisenomies Thoy have claimed ag high ay fifty-six votes, forty-ona being neacoasary to nominate, but have counted men who have pro- nounced for Washburn since their arnval. Sonstor Carpenter bas many zealous and activo Republicans from different parte of the Stato working for him with # burrau, led by the Hou. E, W. eyes, Chairman of the Ropublican Stato Committee. Washburn's frionds are of a staider sort, and operate iu # moro quict way, Thoy claim a yood margin over the forty-one neces- sary ton choice, and do not believe tuat, in view of the fecling agninet Carpenter among their constituents, the pressure brought to bear on thom can bo'affectual, A WASIBUBN MEETING.

DR. HUNTER DIPHTHERIA AND SORE THROAT, Diphtheria is becoming yory common, and be« fore apring may exist naa fate epidemic, It ia therefore important for people to understand: the necessity of psying strict attention to thele health, and especially the health of the roat, Diphtheria is casentially a local disesse of the throat, of specific character, It 16 most liable te attack those whose throata are slready in< flamed by neglected colds and catarrh, and, when it doos attack such, it ia most diffeult to curo. By keeping the throat free from irrilation the liability to it is greatly diminished. Diphtheria is;a malignent soro throat, charac- terized by tho oxudation of a faleo membrano of 0 grayish color, Thia first appears in spote which look like ulcers, but soon spread over the entire furfoco of tho throst, and extends inte the windpipe and bronchial tubes, It cavecd death by its effect on the lungs. It oppreanot tho breathing and proventa the elimination of care bonaceous impurity from tho blood, Tho cire culation of blood but partially tranaformed from velnows to arterial through the general syatem Jowers tho vitality of the entire body, inducing ® typhoid condition, under which the pation sinks. To prevent diphtheria it in neccesary to keop the throat free fram inflammatory action. Unless you do this you invite its attack. ‘To cure this disease is comparatively easy if it be properly undertood and properly treated. At bas not beou generally 0 treated,« and, a3 a consequence, haa proved rory fatal among all elasues—tho rich as well‘as tho poor. When confined to the throat, and eoen early, physiciang havo succeeded in arresting it by prompt applicae tions to the dixeased parts. But, unfortunatoly, many casos aro not Keen notil alter tho disease has got dawn into the windpipe and bronchial tubes, Hero local applications to the throat do uot reach the whole of the discared surface, and necessarily foil. Tho infammatory action goca on within the chest, The windpipe snd bron- chia tubes become filled wiih the exudation, Nothing is doue to diminish tho former or got rid of the latter. ‘ho patient ia suffocating for want of air, and physiciaus do nothing te elcanse those tubes through which alone he can receive it. ‘The mujority of such cases co trent. edd It is impossible to trest diplitheria properly of safuly without inbalations, Leesuse by uo othe er means can the whole surface divoased bo reached. The chief dauger to the patient arises trom the progress of the Jiseaso within tho alr passages, and ita effect on the Junga and blood, ‘These parta ara, never reached by applications made to the throat, and cannot bo by any solid or fluid medication. For these reagons thoro is no safety for the paticnt without inhalations, In the past twenty years I have troated many thou- randu of cases of this disease, aud in only one instance unsuccessfully. I regard diphthoria os a very simple and curable disease, whon prompt- ly and thoroughly treated, aud believe its vast fatality chargcablo wholly to the neglect of ine halation treatment by general physicians, ROBERT HUNTER, N.
