CLIPPINGS FOR THE CURIOUS. Texas has a million acres of land fit for sugar culture. A large number of Nashville boys and girls are going into silk culture. The national debt of France, ($4,683,- 840,000,) is three times as large as ours. Twenty-eight mining explosions oc curred last year, of which fifteen were fatal The winner of a corn-raising contest near Rome, Ga., raised thirty-seven bushels on a half acre. Figures were used by the Arabian Moors about 900, and were introduced into Spain in 1050, and into England in 1253. The pension list of the United States is eight times as large as that of England and ten times greater than that of France. The first systematic attempt to instruct the deaf and dumb was made by Pedro de Ponce, a Spanish Benedic tine monk, about 1570. A chicken ventriloquist is one of the curiosities of Concord, Ky. He crows with clarion notes, and then makes e cho-like repetitions of them, gradually dying away as ; f at an increasing dis tance. William Campbell, a young farmer of Mexico, Mo., won a wager of SIOO, and received 2| cents a bushel besides for his labor, at a corn-shucking bee. In eight days he threw over his shoulder 542 bushels ot corn. Tin is frequently mentioned in the Iliad, and it would seem that the Creeks were very familiar with it. It was used for the raised work on shields and for greaves, and it was also em ployed for domestic purposes. It has been said that a blind man named Benson, who has been an inmate of the Wethersfield (Conn.) town house for more than fifty years, has such a remarkable memory that he can repeat almost every word of any sermon hi hears. The demise and obsequies of a Brunswick (Me.) cat gave a hint to the long-named society. The fainih physiciao nursed the animal in its ill ness, the undertaker composed its re mains in a $12.50 casket, and its mis tress cabled her husband in Europe that the end had come. Catechisms were compiled in the eighth or ninth century; Luther's were published 1520 and 1529. The catechism of the Church of England at first contained only the baptismal vow. the creed, the ten commandments and the Lord's prayer with explanations, but an explication of the sacraments was added by the bishops in obedience to an order made by James I. Trained horses have shown in Eng land that they are capable oi jumping great distances. Chandler cleared thirty-nine feet over a break at Waj - wick; Calverthorpe, thirty-three fee over hurdles at Newport Pagnell; King of the Valley, thirty-five feet over the Wissedine brook, Leicestershire: Lottery, thirty-four feet at Liverpool; Peter Simple, thirty-seven feet at Bos ton. A Honest Man. A gentleman stopped his horse at a tollgate, and not seeing the gate-keeper, went into the house. Finding no one, he began a general search and finally discovered the gate-keeper out in the field at work. Although the old man was quite a distance away, the gentle man went into the field, approached the old man and said: "You are the tollgate keeper, I be lieve." "Yes, sir," the man replied, turn ing and leaning on his hoe handle. "Well, I want to go through the gate." "Ain't the gate open?" "Yes." "Well, why don't you go through: It's my business to be there." "Because I w r anted to pay you." "And you came all the way out here to pay me five cents?" "Yes, sir," said the gentleman, proud ly looking the old man in the eye. "Couldn't you have left the money on the table?" "Yes, but I wanted you to know that I paid you." "You are an honest man." "Yes, sir," replied the gentleman while a pleased expression spread over his face. "You would have walked three times as far to have paid me that five cents, wouldn't you V" "Yes, sir, I would." "Here, Johu," the old man called to a boy that lay in the shade, "call the dog and go along and watch this feller till he gets away. Bet a hundred dol lars he steals something 'fore he leaves the place."— Arkansas Traveller. An Unsophisticated Way. Any Esquimaux asked to undertake a journey or perform a labor he does not like does not declare that he is not at home, but he has a precisely similar formality adapted to his own circum stances. He does not like to tell the stranger proposing to him that he does not wish to go, or that the pay is not sufficient, or, in short, that he will not go; but he says, "I have no boots." This is not to be accepted as a bint that a pair of boots would be an acceptable present; it is merely a polite refusal, and in strict politeness must be ac cepted as unhesitatingly as our own "Not at home." FOR THE FARM AM) HOME. Hot Dal It I.ir Insects. A German method for destroying thrips and red spiders is to have a large vessel filled with clean hot water at a temperature of 133 degrees. The in fested plants are dipped into the water for the space of four seconds when the insects will be killed, and no damage result to the plants; it is best not to continue the immersion longer than the time noted. If afterwards a few insects appear that have developed since the operation, it may be repeated. The temperature of the water should be watched and not allowed to fall below 122 degrees. It is said that even young shoots and flower buds will not suffer in the least from this treatment.— Vick. now to Feed Meal to Cowi. It is a matter of some importance, says a writer in the New England Farmer, how meal is fed to cows. Owing to the peculiar structure of the cow's digestive organs, when meal is fed alone, instead of going into the first stomach where the hay goes and remaining until it is remasticated, it goes directly to the third and thence to the fourth stomach. The consequence is that the meal is not subjected to the softening process which the hay undergoes, and which would render it more easily digestible. Where consid erable meal is fed a portion of it is liable to be imperfectly digested and thus occa r ions loss. By wetting the meal and nay and mixing them together before feeding, the meal will be eaten along with the hay and will be sub jected to the whole digestive process. It is believed that by thus feeding the cows, more meal can be digested with out disturbance of the digestive organs, and, consequently more milk obtained than by feeding the milk separately. This is a matter worthy the considera tion of those who fqed dairy cows. How Batter May be Spoiled. Good butter may be spoiled in churning. Over-churning ruins the texture and changes the proper waxi ness to a disagreeable, sickly greasi ness. This is the more easily done in a churn with dashes, which press the butter against the sides of the churn and squeeze and rub it until it is spoiled. Too long churning spoils the quality by the oxidation of the butter, and the premature formation of strong flavored acids in it, the full presence of which we call rancidity. It may be spoiled at too high a temperature, by which it is made soft and oily and of greasy texture and flavor. No subse quent treatment can remedy this error. It may be spoiled before the cream reaches the churn by keeping it long, or, what is practically the same, by keeping it in too warm a place; 50 de grees is about the right temperature if the cream is kept a week; if it is kept at 62 degrees three days is long enough. White specks are produced in butter by overclaiming or by having the cream too sour. Either of these falts produces curd in the milk, and the small flakes of this cannot be washed out of the butter. So will the use of salt containing specks of lime which unite with the butter and form insoluble lime soap. White specks are covered up to a large extent by using goud coloring, which is made of oil as the solvent. But this use of coloring being used to disguise a fault and to add an undeserved virtue is worthy of denunciation.— American Dairy man. BiKidlni: and Urafllng An address read by A. F. Barron before the North of Scotland horticul tural society, is published in the London Garden, occupying several columns. It contains a statement of many interesting facts, but some of its statements, not being of universal application, may be modified. One of these is that "in strong calcareohssoils dwarf stocks for fruit trees do not succeed." In this country we have never had better success with dwarfs than on strong calcareous soils, good cultivation being given. Another is that "peaches worked on the plum are far more hardy and vigorous." We find otherwise. They grow slower on the plum, and so far as this retarded growth exists, with its earlier ripening of wood, the trees arc slightly hardier, precisely the same as when the growth is reduced on poor soils or in unculti vated ground. Again, "a pear may bo grafted on the apple, but does not live beyond a year or so." Some pears will live for several years; we have seen the old summer Bonchretien some twelve years or more grafted on a Spitzenburg apple, bearing well, and some other sorts several years. The same writer further states that a gardener grafted a certain pear on a common hawthorn, and "the fruit was very similar to haws." Obviously, he mistook a shoot closely below the point of union for one above it; or else in serted by mistake one of the shoots he had just trimmed from the hawthorn. We have known both these mistakes committed by men usually careful.— Cultivator. A New Use for Sawdust. A writer to the Home and Farm, Kentucky, makes mention of the use of sawdust in planting potatoes, and asserts that the product where sawdust was used was twice as great as where none was used, and larger and smoother. It was not stated whether the sawdust was used as an absorbent, was mixed with manure, or was usd as it originally eame lrom the raw, which would make considerahlc diU'c:'- ence. Neither was it stated how much was used in the hill, nor whether tho sawdust was from hard or soft wood, all of which are very important con siderations. But it is hardly probable that this article in its native state will be used very extensively as a fertilizer v * until more is known about it, although if as stated, the yield of potatoes can be doubled by its use, at tho present time, when there are so many portable mills at work in the general destruc tion of the forests of New England, and sawdust is accumulating in quan tities, if it can bo utilized as profita bly, it certainly should be done. Within a few years farmers in Columbia, Ct., have been in the habit of carting from a permanent saw-mill the sawdust that accumu lated. using it as an absorbent and for bedding purposes, but no claim has ever been nuvde, nor has it been sug gested, that of itself it possessed any agricultural value further than its absorptive power, but that it exerted a remarkably beneficial mechanical effect upon the manure with which it was incorporated, so that it very much aided its disintegration or pulveriza tion, a thing that is always desirable. Sawdust is a substance that is useful to the farmer in the otlice it performs as an absorbent and disintegrator, and also in the use that is so satisfactorily made of it for packing around the ice of an ice house,but its further use ha* not yet been satisfactory proved. Taking Tea with the Jniiauese. Says a traveler: "The great peculiar ity of this tea drinking ceremony con sists in the exactness with which every thing is done. A spoon, cup, or what ever is handled, luis to be taken hold of in a particular way, set down in a par ticular place, and touched in a particu lar part, and everything is done with the same strange precision. What I saw was part of the ceremony of 'thin tea drinking,' and part of the ceremony of 'thick tea-drinking,' but the whole is simply a lesson in those laws of politeness which were formerly so rigidly exacted in every mansion and on every state occasion; and which are still largely kept up in the houses of the old aristocracy. Originally, the ceremony was of a secret character, and no servant entered the house in which it took place—the master kindling the fire, boiling the water, making the tea, and, in short, doing everything for the guests; but in later years it has become a mere ceremony of an extremely fash ionable character. One or two things in this service struck me as especially strange. Thus, both host and guests knelt from the time they entered the building till the time they left it; and even when the master had to go to a little back room to fetch water, cups or whatever else he might require, he shuflled on his kness to the slide which served as a door, and then, having opened it, shuflled through the opening till he was well on the other side, when he rose to his feet; but this he must not do while in the presence of his guests. The chief guest, moreover, is the spokesman for the company, and no word is uttered save by the chief guest or host during the service, be it ever so long. The chief guest also de mands everything--thus he asks for tea and refreshments; but the particn. lar moment at which each request has to be made is arranged by the code of etiquette. At opportune moments the chief guest also asks if he may look at the tea-caddy, a spoon, a bowl, or the tea pot. Receiving the necessary permis sion, he shuffles on his knees to the place where the object demanded is, takes it, bows his forehead to the ground, then rising, touches his fore head with the object received, and begins to examine it. Looking at the tea-pot, he asks if it is silver; then, who made it; then opening it and smelling the tea, what tea costs per pound; after which inquiries he passes it to the next guest, and makes a re mark to the host which should, if pos sible, be at the same time a compli ment and a pun. After each guest has duly inspected the object, the chief guest shuffles again across the floor, and returns it to its place. Object after object is brought, examined and returned in the same manner." Prophecies for the Credulous Hardly had people recovered from tho nerve-shattering soothsaying of Mother Shipton when the weird words of wind-coinpelling Wiggins is well rubbed from recollection, two ancient prophecies have been unearthed for the present year. One is from the writings of Nostradamus, a French astrologer of the sixteenth century, which may he thus rendered ; • In eighteen hundred and eihfy-tliree, When woocL in vernal green shall be, Aainst misfortune and mischance A lame limn B' mil protect our France." The Comte de Cliambord is lame, and may be taken to represent the "boiteaux" or "boiteux." The second blood-curdler is: "When E ister falls in our Lady's lap To t-hall come a great mishap." Now, Easter Sunday this year fell, for the first time in about a hundred years, on "Lady Day," March 15. We now manufacture another prophecy : When in one w* e'< fall Sundays two, Prophetic divines chance come true. THE NEW*.

'1 his remedy is a medicine, not a beverage, and is to be taken according to full and per fe.tly plain d.rectious accompanying each bottle. It is specific, but not a patent med icine. and contains 110 vile narcotics or viler liquor. It is a prescription used for years by the well-known physician, Dr. K. V. Pierce, of Buffalo, N. Y., whoße name is a household word in innumerable homes all over our own and foreign lands. The Golden Med.cai D.scovery is prepared and ofle.ed to the public by the World's Dis|en sary Medical Association, a body oorj o ate, existing by and under the laws of the Stale of New York: its president is I)r. Pierce, the great specialist in chronic d -eases. The doctor has devoted the best years of a very busy and wonderfully successful life to the relief and cure 1 f his suffering fellow men— and at a time w hen high |>olitical honors 1 ly broadly open before him, Dr. Pier e re signed hie seat in the Congress of the United States, simply from a sen-e of duty toward others. His associates in the great snnatar ium represented to the doctor that the im mense business of their association de manded thai his personal attention should t>e paid to the great army of patients crowding upou them from every clime. Dr. Pierce is nlso the founder of the Invalids' Ho:el at Buffalo, N. Y. This establishment, possess ing all the comforts and luxuries of a first class American hotel, la- in ad lition the daily attendance of a large faculty of emi nent specialists, whose j ra -tico colleo i e y cover the whole field of surgery and chrouic diseases. The laboratoiy in which Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery is pre l are 1 is an object of interest and wonder. It has a frontage of one hundred feet, a depth of one hundre l and twenty-fi\e leet, and is six stories high. In thi mammoth and pa latial workshop two hundred persons are constantly employed in putting up Dr. Pierce's Medicines. While the Golden Medical Discovery's curative efiectsare almost immediately felt, it is not merely a temi>oiary stimulant, but is ns certainly a safe and complete cure, in all ases for which it is recommended, as it is that certain misery and death will follow their neglect. Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery will not cure club feet, will not refurnish armless or legless unfortunates with new and perfect limbs, and it is not guaranteed that even a dozen bottles applied to an > stray portion of a second hand skele ton, will develop such member into an ani mate, human form divine (?). In brief, it is not asserted that this medicine will, or can, counteract tl.e decrees of Providence. Bui in nil cases where a high state o civilization and cultivation has engendered disease and suffering, whereby God's natural man has become a nervous, artificial bein the Gold en Medical Discovery will positively restore to him the strong, vigorous, self asserting life, from which, alruorv unconsciously, he had drifted far. aod perhaps hopelessly away. It is claimed, and guar; need, if this medi cine 1 e used as prescrioed, and faithfully persevered in a reasonable time, it trill jter mntnrntly cure liver comiffaint, and the var ious blood disorders consequent upon torpor of the liver, in all their various forms and ramifications, including bronchitis, con sumption, which is scrofula of the lungs, dyspepsia, costiveness, sick-headache, skin diseases, fever and ague, m. laria, and other disorders nr.sing from poisoned or deterior ated blood. This wonderful medicine cures all IHI mors, from the worst scrofula to a common blotch, pimple or eruption. Erysipelas, salt rheum, fever sores, scaly or rough sk n, in short, all diseases caused by bad blood, are conquered by this powerful, purifying and invigorating medicine. Great eating ulcers rap d'y heal under its benign intluences. Especial'}' has it manifested its jiolency in curing tetter, boils, carbuncles, scrofulous soies and wellit gi, whi e swellings, goitre or th o'<£ neck, and enlarged glands. Consump ion, which is scrofulous d sease of the lungs, is promptly and positively arrcs ed and cured by tins sovereign and God-given remedy, if taken before the last stages are reached. For weak lungs, spitting of blood, con sumptive night-sweats, and kindred affec tions, it is a sovereign remedy. For indi gestion, dyspepsia and torpid liver, or "bil iousness," Golden Med eal Liscovery has no equal, rs it etfects ierfect and radical cures. To ill suffering from lassitude, weariness, despondency, lack of vigor or ambition, be it man, woman or child. Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery will apeeJily impart new tone, vigor and life to the whole system. Ihe nnggard face will grow round, ruddy, and 1 earn with the expression of long lost con fidence. The step will be tirm and elastic, and the relieved sufferer will once more eujoy in common with fellow men that feeling of I roprietorship in earth, air and being, only fully realized by those in perfect health. The Golden Medical Discovery will not make drunkards or opium eaters; on tie contrary, any unfortunate, diiven by tro ble, ad ersityor inherited appetite, to the use of Insidious stimulants, will find the Discovery of great assistance in efforts to break the chains bii.diug him to a shameful and initer- Hble existence. Those feelin? only "out of sorts," with no [>redominnnt symptoms, and who, if asked, would find it difficult to explain their sensa tions, will find a sovereign remedy in the Golden Medical Discovery. Those who are irritable, petulant, or fret ful, ever seeing the gloomy side of life; who imagine "the time is out of joint;" to whom life is a heavy burdtn, not a blessing: who think the whole worid is arrayed a ,'auist them, and anticiuate calamity at every turn; to ail such let this message be full of en couragement and joy—Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery will radically cure them, when it will be found, to their lasting benefit, that lilt and the world ba/e no- changed, but that disease had thrown clouds of misery and woe about them, through which all things were seen, as "through a glass darkly." Let no sufferer be discouraged because he or she has tried other medicines without benefit. In fact, these are the cases the World's Dispell wiry Medical Aeodatioa pariicularly desire to reach through their Dr. Tierce's Golden Medical Discovery. H'/icn all other medicines fail let this be tried, an I no one will be doomed to further disap pointment. The Golden Medical Discovery is a pre scription of a physician with a wide-awake reputation and an honorable position to maintain. It is far beneath the dignity of l)r. Tieioe to lend his name to any vile nos trum, or catch-penny preparation, whereby tho public may be deceived, flaring used his Discovery for ninny years in his un precedented private practice, he is oonvinced it is indeed a specific in diseases mentioned. Desiring (his marvelous cure shall benefit not only those with whom he comes person ally in contact, but that all mankind may be eiiibruceu in his grind plan for the ameliora tion of human suilering, the doctor, through the World's Dispensary Medical Association, earnestly and mo t confidently recommends his G ld< n Medical Discovery to the pnblio at large, assured the most t-keptical will be thoroughly convinced of its worth by a trial of a smgie bott e.

K venue Department of the United States, at the time my office wee in this city, I was afflicted with a severe attack of kidney disease, and at tines en ffered intensely. I received the medical advice of some of oar best physk rians for a lon* time, without being benefited by tlierr prescriptions. Being discouraged by the failure of the >ctors to help me, snd being urged to ase Hant'e Remedy by s friend who bad tested its m-rits, although reluctant to try a patent medicine, I was finally induced to try the Remedy, snd procured two bottles of it, end commenced taking it faithfully according to the dlreo t ins. Before I had taken it three days the excruciating pains in my back had disappeared, and before 1 had used two bottles I was entirely cured. Whenevi r, from over exertion or a violent cold, the pains hi my kidney* return, a few doeee of Hunt's Remedy quickly effects s curs. Before closing 1 beg to mention the remarkable evrs of a friend of mine in New YArk City, to whom I rsoom mended this valuable modi sine. He was suffering severely from an attack which was pronounced by bis physician s decided esse of Bright's Disease of ths Kid neys. I obtained two bottles of Hani's Remedy fa* him. and he commenced taking it. and began to improve at ono. and waa speedily restored to health, aad he attributes the saving of his life, under the blessing of s merciful Providence, to Hunt's Remedy. Another friend of mine in New York, to whom I reoom mended Hunt's Remedy, was suffering severely tram kidney disease, and was entirely cured of it after using this wonderful medicine only s short period. Feeling deeply grateful for the great benefits experi enced by my friends and myself from the use of Hunt's Remedy, I feel it to be my duty, as well as a great privi lege, to furnish you this voluntary and unsolicited state ment of facta for the information of your large number of readers, many of whom are undoubtedly suffering from this widely-spreading scourge, and 1 believe that it is the tx St medicine now known, and that it will cars all cases of kidney diseases that can be cured. 1 shall be pleased to center with any one who msy desire an interview regarding the statements herein oontained. Truly yours, BICHMOM) lIENBUAW. 90 Meeser Street. Petroleum Y. Nsiby. D. R. Locke, Petroleum V. Nasby (Editor "Toledo Blade") writes: 1 had on a forefinger of my right hand on# of thorn pets, s "run-round." The finger became inflamed to a degree unbearable and swollen to nearly twice its nat ural sice. A friend gave as Henry's Carbolic Salve, and in twenty minutes ths pain had so much subsided as to give me a fair night's rest, which I had sot had be fore for a week. The inflammation left the finger tn a day. I consider it a most valuable article for the house hold. Edouard Reintard. of New York, writes: It gives me great pleasure to say that a single box of Henry's Carbolio Salve effected a complete cure of Piles with which I had been troubled for over a year, and which nothing else that I used would ours.
