Among the deaths from sunstroke in Balti- more, beet O were the following well- known and highly respectable citizens: Wm. Spear, Esq.. insurance agent, and Captain James Frazier. Hon. E. C. Ingersoll was yesterday renomi- nated by acclamation as Representative in Cengress from his district in L.linois Chief Justice Chase goes to Dartmouth Col- lege with Gen, Sherman. The recent intensity of solar heat has, as usual, given mse toa cousiterable number of fatal results. consequent upon direct exposure to its influence. A few words of information pon the nature of this dangerous affection will, no donbt, be interesting, and may also have their use in enabling the reader to avoid 80 sudden an exit from subsolar existence. Itis arather singular fact that sunstroke is more fatal and more frequent in the temperate than im the torrid zone. New York has more cases than Havana or Rio, in proportion to popuistion; even in Q uebec the danger is quite &5 great,in the few daysof intense heat al. Jotted to that region, as in any part of the world. The indications of the thermomeger are very imperfect guides in regard to the action of heat upon the animal frame. “The true indication of the force of the solar rays,” ey Herschel, ‘would seem to be, not the siati- cal effect on the thermometer, but their mo- mentary intensity measured by the velocity with which they communicate heat to an absorbent body.” Itis the “momen in- tensity” which causes the phenomenon of sun- stro! and which seems to be greater in ee Witbout than within the tropics. hen the bead is exposed to the sun’s Trays in times of tbeir greatest intensity, the heat seems often to cause instant inflammatory ac- tion in the contents of the skull. The sufferer experiences intense headache, succeeded by yomiting: be then falls breathless, and, unless instant assistance be given, turns black m the face and expires. Victims of sunstroke are Most often laborers, and intoxicating drinks strongly predispose tothis sudden inflammation of the cranial organs. Any constriction about the neck, from tight cravats or collars, also predis to eunstroke, and generally any depressing agents, mental or physical, lessen the resisting power of the body to this as to other diseases. Terrestial radiation of the sun's heat seems to bear an important part in the production ots troke. Atsea, and on smafi islands, such aresultis very uncommon, no matter bow intensely the sun’ rays beat down: while injand, and especially in large cities, where stony pavements and long ranges of buildings combine to add their radiant caloric to the di- rect actien of the sun, fatal cases most often occur One of the best protectives against sun- stroke is the sun umbrella, universally used in our Southern jcities, but rarely seen at the North, where during our short but fiery sum- mer, they are even more necessary. If, in ad. dition to this, crayats and dress hats are di: carded, the hair clipped close, all alcoholic beverages strictly eschewed, animal food re- duced toa minimum, and ice drinks, water, soda water or lemonade freely but temperate- ly indulged im, we may confidently continue our usual out-door avocations without danger. Laboring men, who cannot carry sun um- brellas, will find the greatest safety in teetotal- ism, at least during the heated term, with fre- quent washing of the head in col! water while 4 Work 3% the sun, and immediate abandon- ment of labor on the occurrence of the diz- ziness or sickness at the stomach. For one sun-struck, the most effective plan is removal lo shelter, free application of cold water to the head, water to drink if the patient ¢ n swallow, and medical aid withoutdelay. A favorable treatment of sunstroke in the army, Said to have been very successful, was the con- tinnous dashing of the patient’s body with cold water until revival took place—often for fa hour or more with plenty of water to drink, when swallowing was possible. A trial of this in civil practice is certainly jus- liffable, seeing that under the usual treatment every case terminates fatally —Boston Com- mercial. Sap DROWNING oF THREE Boys.—Thoma Hunter, aged 10 years, and Hugh Tinney, aged 10 years. went in to bathe in the Schuylkill, at Philadelphia, leaving James Hunter, aged 13 ears, On the bank, undressing.

And so they now all tive together contentedly. Loox OvT ror Locust STINGs.— William Keuering, of Hempfield township, while Plowing in his cornfield, on Friday last, was stung on the neck bya locust andso much affected thereby that bad to cease work and gohome. He suffered great painin bis head and body, and was confined to bed for about a halfaday. On Wednesday afternoon he was in town, but complained of being very weak. A great many persons handle these seeming harmless insects with impunity, and we cau- tion our readers to give them a wide berth, or they may suffer for their temerity. We have been informed that a woman residing in the vicigity of Anderson’s cross roads, in Frank- lin township, was also stung by a locust, and Al last accounts she was notexpected to live. A hule son of Mr. David Sample, of West Middlesex, Pennsylvania, was stung by @ locust on the wrist, last week, and died trom the effects. The little sufferer lived only two days after he was stung. At the time he was stung he was playing in the yard, and had taken up the Jocust in hishand. If they are thus eaey YT people should be carefal how they handle them.—(reensbury, (I’.)
