powers lias prevailed. It is fittiug that,
at stated periods, we should cease ftom
onr accustomed pursuits and from the
turmoil of onr daily lives, and unite in
thankfnlness for the blessings of the
past and in the cultivation of kindly
feelings toward each other.
Now, therefore, recognizing these

serve such day as a day of rest, thanks
giving and prayer.
In witness whereof, 1 have hereunto
set my hand and seal, and caused the
seal of the United States to be affixed.

A letter from P. Aldrieh of John
son's Creek, to the Farmers' Club, says:
For bloat in cattle, soft snap and new
milk, half a pmt or so each, is a most
sovereign remedy, the Jose seldom
having to bo repeated. I have known
it to do its work in half an honr. It is
a great gas exterminator ; soon causes
a lively eructation. For hollow horn
—some cattle doctors say there is no
such disorder—bore the horn on the
under side with a nail, bit, or gimlet,
not for the matter to discharge, it does
that at the nose, but for the purpose of
injecting strong vinegar, well peppered,
red or black, blood warm. It has a
very cleansing tendency, and produces
a lively sensation iu the animal for
good. * Keep the hole stopped with
beeswax, or something else; repeat
every two or three days. Hollow horns
caused by interlacing their horns—
nonsense that. Many queries as to
what will destroy lice on stock I see.
Tears ago I sent to the club, and it was
published, a remedy that has been fre
quently tried about here, and I have
never heard cf it failing to effect the
desired object, vis. : calomel. Apply
as much as will lie on the point of a
penknife on the top of the head ; rub
into the hair well. A second applica
tion is seldom needed, howsoever
numerous may be the vermin. On
horses, cattle and dogs it has proved an
effectual lice exterminator ; though for
dogs, I should say, from what I have
heard, as I had no experience, that
strychnine or pans green administered
internally would be abont the thing.

How is it that we can see men who
have moulded themselves on the anvil,
who won't let their boys be moulded en
the anvil too? As the leather-dealer
pounds the leather together to make a
sole, so the boy needs pounding to
make him a man. If vou don't you
bring np a tender child, a child that
won't wear well And the same with a
girl that is brought up without know
ing how to work. There are mis
fortunes enough that fall upon the fair
sex: there are adversities and sudden
revolutions in affaire that more often
fall like pitiless storms upon their
heads than upon those of men, but of
all adversities a fooli-h mother for a
fair daughter is the moat adverse ; one
who will not teach the child how to
earn her living, who will not teach her
fruitful industry. Music may be heard
instead of spinning ; but in some way
or another work should be part of the
education of every boy, and the boy
who is brought up without knowing
how to work is not brought up at all;
he is abased. The old Jews used to
say that s man not brought up to a
trade is brought up to be m thief, and I
am of the same opinion to a great ex
tent. So, then, parents, if you would
bring up the best crops here that your
ground will allow, bring up stalwart
boys that are able to work aud are not
ashamed of it, and briog up good stal
wart girls that are able to work in the
kitchen and abont the house, and are
not ashamed of it either.— llcnry Ward

The " best rotation " in one place
would not be the best in another. This
question of rotation in different locali
ties is a matter for experiment. Grass,
corn, wheat,and grass in many localities
is excellent rotation. In others -grass,
Cora, roots, oats, barley, grass,is profit
ably adopted. In some localities where
dairies are kept there should be no ro
tation with a view to securing good
pastures and meadows—if the right
kinds and proper number of varieties
of grasses and clovers are sown, and
the fertility ef the meadows and pas
tares kept up by the proper topdre6A
ing with fertilizers. Where timothy
grass is sown for meadow, and where it
is profitable to grow pure timothy hay
for meadow, the beat wav to keep up
the crop is not always to plow it up the
third year, but to sow the second year
timothy seed on the sod without plow
ing, topdressiug it with manure after
Bowing the seed. Because timothy
"runs out " it does not follow that the
soil is exhausted. It being a biennial
plant, it requires reseeding every two
years. This done with proper top
dressing, a timothy sod can be " kept
up " indefinitely.

A CONFEDERATE STORY,
The I.Min ikti ( tiiiiil a DMfrtlan.
At a recent political gatheriug in
Tuscumbia, Ala., (lon. Oullen A. Rattle
related the following touching story in
th course of hi a sparoh:
During the winter of 1863 64 it was
my fortune to lo President of one of
.lie courts-martial of the Army of
Northern Virginia. One bleak l>eeem
ber morning, while the anow covered
the grouud aiul Uie winds howled
around our camp. I left my bivouac tire
to attend the Session of Uie court.
Winding for miles along uncertain
paths, 1 at length arrived at the court
grouud at Round Oak ehnreh. Pay
after day it had been our duty to try
the aoldiers of that army, oharged with
violations of military law; but never
had 1 on say previous ooc -siou been
greeted by arch anxious ajsvUtors as
on that morning awaited the opening of
the court. Case after case was dis
posed of, and at length the cate id
" The Confederate Statea vs. Edward
Coopar" was called charge, deser
tion. A low murmur rose spontane
ously from the battle-scarred specta
tors, as a yo.iug artiPeryman rose from
the prisoners' bench, and, in reapouao
to the question, " Guilty, or not
guilty ?" answered, " Not guilty."
The Judge Advocate was proceeding
to Ojxui the prosecution, when the
court, observiug that the priaouei was
unattended by counsel, interposed and
inquired of the accused, " Who la your
counsel?" He replied, "1 have no
eouusel." Supposing that it was In#
pnrpise to represent himself before the
court, the Judge Advocate was in
structed to proceed. Every charge
and specification against the prisoner
was sustained. The prisoner was then
told to ititr.shicc his witnesses. He
replidl, " I have no witnesses." Aston
ished at the calmueas with which he
seemed to bo submitting te what lie re
garded lis inevitable fate, 1 said to him,
" lfarc you no defense ? Is it possible
that you abandoned your comrades and
deserted your colors in the pres< nee of
the enemy without any reason ?" He
replied, " There was a reason, but it
will not avail uie before a military
court" I said: " Perhaps you axe
mistaken; you are charged with the
highest crime known to military law,
and it is vonr duty to make known the
causes that influenced your actions."
For the first time his manly form trem
bled, and his blue eyes swam in tears.
Approaching the President of the
court he presented a letter, saying as
he did ao, "There, General, is what
did it," I opened the letter, aud in a
moment mv eyes filled with tears. It
was passed from one to another of the
court until all had seen it, and those
stem warriors who had passed with
Stonewall Jaekson through a hundred
battles wept like little children. Soou
as I sufficiently recovered my self-pos
session, I read tlw letter as the defense
of the prisoner. It was iu these
won! a :
"Mv Dear Edward : I liaTe always
been proud of Ton, and since your con
nection with the Confederate army 1
have been prouder of yon than ever
before, i would not have you do any
thing wrong for the world ; but before
God, Edward, unless you cotne home
we must die ) Last night I was aroused
by little Eddie s cryiug. I called and
said : ' What's the matter, Eddie ?'
J and he said: 'Oh, mamma, I'm so
hungry!' And Lncy, Edward, your
darling Lncy, she m ver complains, but
' she is growiug thinner and thinner
every day. Aud before God, Edward,
unless you come Lome we must die.
"Yoca MaKT."
1 Turning to the prisoner, I asked :
" What did you do when yon received
this letter ?" He replied : " 1 made
application for a furlough, and it was
rejected; again I made application
and it was rejected ; a third time I
made application, aud it was rejected,
and that night, as I wandered backward
and forward in the camp, thinking pf
my home, with the mild eyes of Lucy
looking ui> to me, and the burning
words of Mary sinking ia my brain, 1
was no longer the Confederate soldiar,
bat I was the father of Lucy and the
I husband sf Mary, and I would have
passed those lines if every gun in the
battery bad tired upon me. I went to
my home. Mary ran out to meet me,
her tngel arms embraced me ; ami she
whispered, ' O 1 Edward, I am so bajv
py I I am so glad you got your fur
, lough !' She must have felt ine sliud
-1 der, for she turned pale is death, and
catching her breath at every word, she
said, * Have yon come without your
furlough ? O ! Edward, go back ! go
bark ! Let me ami my children go
down together to the grave, but O, for
heaven's sake, save the honor of onr
name !" And here I am, gentlemen, not
brought here by military power, but in
obedience to the command of Mary, to
abide the sentence of your court."
Every officer of that court-martial
i felt the force of the prisoner's words.
Before them stood, in beatific vision,
the eloquent pleader for a husband's
and a father's wrongs ; but they had
been trained by their great leader,
Robert E. Lee, to tread the path of
duty, though the lightning's flash
scorched the ground beneath their feet,
and each in his turn pronounced the
verdict—guilty. Fortunately for hu
mamity, fortunately for the Confedera
cy, the proceedings of the court were
reviewed by the commanding general,
and upon the record was written :
HEADV CARTERS, A. X. Y.
The finding of the court ia approved.
The prisoner is pardoned end will re
port to bis company.
R. E. Lee, General.
During the second battle of Odd
Harbor, when shot aud shell were fall
ing "like torrents from the mountain
[cloud," my attentiou was directed to
the fact that one of onr batteries was
; being silenced by the concentrated fire
of the enemy. When I reaohed the
battery every gun but one had been
i di-muntled, and by it stood a solitary
soldier, with the blood streaming from
hia side. As ho recognized me he
elevated his voioe above the roar of
j battle and said, " General, I have one
shell left. Tell me have I saved the
honor of Mary and Lucy ?" I raised
toy hat. Once more a shell went crash
ing through the ranks of the enemy,
and the hero sank by his gun to rise no
more.
An Incident of a Massacre.
A magazine writer in a sketch of the
United States a hundred years ago tells
the following incident:" Brandt and
his band of savages penetrated into
Orango county. New York, and the
massacre of Minisink alarmed the
Hngnenot farmers in tho rich valleys
of the Bhawangunk and tho Dnteh "in
the hill country around Goshen. As
tho savages pressed on into Orange
county they camo to a school-houso
which was yet filled with its children.
Thev took the schoolmaster into the
wooil and killed him. They clove the
skulls of several of the boys with their
tomahawks ; but the little 'girls, who
stood looking on horror-strnck and
waiting for an instant death, were
spared. A tall savage—it was Brnuilt
—dashed a mark of black paint upon
their aprons, and when the other savages
saw it they left them unharmed. Bwift
as an inspiration the little girls re
solved to save their brothers. They
flung over them their aprons, and when
tho next Indians passed by they were
spared for the mark they bore. The
schoolmaster's wife hid in a ditch and
escaped.
What He Wanted.
A St. Panl merchant stepped out of
his place of business the other day into
the warehouse to get a customer a piece
of pork. When he dodged back into
the store with his meat, he discovered
the customer occupying an unusually
awkwurd relation to biß money-drawer,
and yelled out, " I say, what are you
doing around there ?" The cuss kind
of dug out from behind that counter,
and as he assumed the proper locution
for a customer to occupy in anotLer
man's store—on the south side of the
counter—he stammered out, " Oh, I
was just—ahem ! —I went around there
to—ahem ! —was just—l thought—l
was just looking around there to—
ahem ! —I thought maybe little Charlie
Bom waa in under the counter, like I"
A REGULAR VENDETTA.
Tw o Pamlllfi In liirrl far I rr—
lit,toil Mir.l at K<rrjr IH*llig—*
airang* liuint).
It began a score of years ago, in one
of the cotton Slates. Taylor during a
quarrel killed a man named Sutton. A
pistol-shot avenged a fancied insult,
! and the murderer waa left unpunished,
j The machinery of law waa rode in the
rough aeetiou where the brawl had oo
ourred, and the surviving male repre
sentatives of neither the Nuttou uor the
Taylor families seemed to think it iu
cumhent upon them to give the slayer
up to the oourta. A year or two after
the murder, the Taylor family muni
j grated to Texas, evidently to avoid
danger of future collision with the fain
i ily of the murdered man. S*K>II after
j ward, the Suttons also went to Texas,
and, a fate would have it, settled in
an adjacent county, but ob family
! lived iu ignorauce of the other's
whereabouts until the close of the late
\ war.
.More than a decade had passed since
i the original " difllculty" between
Taylor aud Sutton, an.l one might im
agine that the animosity of the injured
fauulv would have l>rn somewhat ap
peased by the flight of time, llut a lit
tle circumstance, which once more
brought the lsmiliea into collision, re
sulted iu a vendetta whicil has few par
allela in any country, ami certainly
none in the United States. A yoiiug
Taylor, finding lus desire for udven
ture stronger than his prudence, made
across the ixmuty line oue dav, ami
stole a horse. 'The theft waa diaoov
eied, and he was pursued, and fell by
the rifle of a Sutton. This aroused all
the angry memories of the past, aud iu
a short time neither Taylors ror Sut
tons dared to leave their houses with
out being armed to the teeth. Open
wax was declared, and the oitisena of
the two counties in which the hostile
families resided gradually took sides.
It is said that as many as twelve hull
! ilre*l persons were at one time so much
interested in the vendetta, and so com
mitted to one or the other side of the
: quarrel, that, had there been a general
i fight, they would, without hesittaion,
| hve joined in it. If they met on coun
' try roads, or at taverns, or in the mar
ket places, the implacable feud was ear
ried on with a mere intense bitterness
than that of the Montagues aud Cap
| ulcts ; a corpse was the result of every
meeting ; ambushing was common ; a
dead Taylor lying iu front of a clump of
.-buahes, with his brains blown out,
marked the vengeance of the Suttons ;
and a lynched Sutton, takeu suddenly
from his horse aud huug to a tree, tes
tified to the sleeplo.-s hate of the Tay
| lore. At last so many people be-cauie
' embroiled iu these occasional murders,
which are said to have numbered fifty,
that the condition of afiairs in the two
' counties became intolerable. Business
t and agriculture were almost eulirelv
suspended ; the courts wo-o blocked
with the suits ami Counter-suits of the
two principals in the vendetta, and
both aides desperately determined to
bring matters to a climax. So they
took the field in warlike arrav.
At this juncture, it wa- discovered
that the Buttons were more numerous
, than the Taylors, and that they also
i had a larger number > f adherents.
After some guerrilla warfare, the Tsv
lors were surrounded, and, rather than
become the victims ( a wholesale mas
sacre, they consented to adjourn to the
county seat of the county in which they
•then were, and there enter iuto a solemu
compact to cease the vendetta, aud
"call it square.'* The compact we
made ; the two oouuties were wild with
excitement; travel was once more un
obstructed, and some confident persons
laid aside their arms.
But oue mouth later, as a veteran
Sutton was seated with a companion on
the deck of a steamer at lndiauola,
•bout to start for Galveston, a young
Taylor shot them both dead. He waa
subsequently arrested at Galveston,
and when, two mouths ago, ho vas
sent to Indianola for trial, he was s>
coaipttnied by two militia companies,
who had been ordered to protect the
majesty of the law against auy further
pursuance of the most remarkable ven
detta of modern times. The murderer
now lies in prison awaiting his sen
tence, and, meantime, the Taylors aud
Suttons are once more vigorously at
war.
The Long Ago.
Not long ago, while some repairs
were Ixiing made in the basement of the
United States Assay Office, corner ol
Nassau and Wail streets, New Y'ork, a
vault near the corner-stone was hrokeu
open, and some matters of historic in
terest were revealed. A stone slab was
found, with an inscription showing that
the edifice was erected in 1823. Also a
large glass bottle filled with various
carious documents was discovered, a
quart bottle of Jamaica rum, and a
peck of hickory-nuts, which crumblixl
to dust on being poured out from the
measure in which they had so long re
posed. L~i Uie bottle, among sundry
papers, was found Lougworth's "Ameri
can Almanac" for I*2l, which contains
much interesting reading matter. A
few brief parages are devoted to
"Travelers" and some brief extracts
will indicate tho changes fifty years
have wrought:

A Heroine of the Commune.
The following was related to me re
cently of a noble woman whose name
should live in history. Hhe, together
with her lover, a yonng snrgeon, had
taken care of the wounded Communists
during the days and nights of their
fierce fighting with the Versailles
troops. Upon the entry of tho latter
into the city, when excitement was at
its height.and when every one suspected
of complicity with tho Commuuo was
shot without a question being asked,
the surgeon was arrested and brought
before the drum-head tribunal, in the
Place du Chatclet. Ilis life trembled
for the moment in the balauoe, but was
finally saved by the intercession of one
of the judges present, who was an in
timate friend of tho accused. As the
latter was being led from the room he
met the woman whom ho loved, who
had helped him in tho care of the
wounded, and who was now accused of
tho same crime ns ho himself had been.
"Good (tod, Marie!" are yon here,
too ?" Tho woman took in tho whole
scene at s glance, saw the danger into
which she would plunge her lover
should she recognize him, and drew
herself up coldly, saying, " You are
mistaken, sir."— New )'</rk Kvcnina

In conversation with ox (lov, High r.
a n-porior learned that a vigorous effort
waa iiiiw being tuavli< to insure the sue
eesa of tho eeutennial exhibition. The i
only eon teat, sanl the ex (invornor, had i
been about the Ceremonies that were to
be observed, and about tbe way to raise
tho means to pet at the proper prepara
tions. Uongreen lutd commended the
eelebration to tho people, un-l sanl that
all the people should I.ike put. It hail,
even at its lust session, while declining
to furnish capital, still adherer! to the
poller that th < people must do this
great thing, for it had provided for the
admission ami exhibition of goods lice
of duties, had granted additional tluau
oiul facilities ami invited all foreign
nations to participate, ami under these
circumstances those who had accepted
the trust granted by Congress deter
mined to go on with Ihe werl. Willi
out earing to impure what might be the
future inclination of INingrrss, said ex
llov. lhgler, the Hoard of Finance
deemed It proper to go before the
country with a somewhat modified
tliiatictal programme to taise the neces
sarr capital lor the work. The Hoard
having discovered that a large class of
people, who did liot feel able to con
tribute tin- amount of a share of stock
islo., were anxious to have some iden
tity with the work ami contribute what
they could, had, in order to gratify
this desire, determined upon adopting
a system of memorial medals under
which members of tbe poorer class
could contribute what they might see
proper, from 81 upward, ami be fur
nished with an imperishable evidence to
go down to coming generations that
they had some pait or parcel in com
incinerating the tirst Centennial of
American Independence. This, with
the stock to the I'elitciiuial Hoard of
Finance, was the financial scheme which
was now being presented to the coun
try, and the Hoard thought it a good
one. Having secured, under tho origi
nal plan laid down by t' nigress ami by
appropriations from the State of I'enu
sylvarus and city of I'hiladelphia, a
capital cxeecdiug $-4,1k.K>,000, the prac
tical work for the great ceremonies had
been commenced, the principal build
iug had been placed under contract,
aud were now in process of rapid con
struction, and the Hoard were happy
tvi state that they would all be com
pleted in ample time. The smaller
buildings were to be placed under con
tract in three or four weeks. The totsl
flour space to be covered by tho build
ings would exceed forty acres. The art
building, which ia to cost $1,500,000
was to be the finest specimen of archi
tecture in the country. More than half
of the space of the buildings had al
ready beeu applied for. Fx llov. Hig
lor further stated that he Lad every
assurance that ail sections of the Unit* <1
States would bo amply represented at
the exhibition, and said if anything
were wanting to show that it would bi
a great success, it was to be furnished
in the fact that Germany, llelgium,
France, the Netherlands, Norway,
Sweden, Spain, China, Japan, Egypt,
Switzerland, Mexico, Hraz.il, Chili, the
Argentine Confederation, Ecuador,
Peru, Yejuxui in, the Sandwich island#,
Colombia and Hayti had accepted the
luvitatiou to attend, and it was known
that England, Italy, Persia, Canada
and Australia had adopted steps to take
part iu the exhibition, lie hoped the
public would look Ujvoti it as an inter
national affair, aud not alone eminently
national. He expressed a strong hope
that New York would take, in future,
a more active interest iu the exhibi
tion, and that its citizens would sub
scribe something to aid in iii.suring its
success.

The Suicidal Mania.
Suicides in France are remarkable for
showing concerted aetion between two
persons to terminate their Uvea. Lately
eases of this ktud have been exception
ally numerous. At Houlogua a youth
of eighteen fell desperately in love with
his employer's daughter, who to some
extent returned his passion. The re
port that her parents contemplated her
marriage with some other young mau
drove her lover wild. He disappeared,
and presentlv she, too, was missed.
Three days later their remains were
found on the sands, in a desolate and
lonely spot. A revolver lay near by.
Again, about the same date n man aged
forty, accompanied by a woman of
twenty-three, took lodgings in I'aris.
They represented themselves as follow
ing trades, but their manners, appear
ance and conversation convinced the
landlord that they were of a superior
class. Their habits were exact and very
economical. Failing to appear oneilay,
their room was burst open. They were
both dead—suffocated. A paper was
found staling that they eared no longer
to live. Their resources were evidently
exhausted. They bequeathed their
clothes aud a ring to pay the landlord's
expenses, and the letter concluded with
a touchiugly expressed request that the
woman's rosury and cross might be
buried with her. A vast number of
the suicides in Franco seem to spring
from the agonizing apprehension felt
by persons who have been in comforta
ble. circumstances of becoming money
less. In no country, it is said, are poor
relations mndc more acutely to feel that
they tiro undesirable, than in France.
A Miser.
Ho inny bo called a minor. He liven
near IJuffulo, and ia ricb. Lately ho
was drawu on a jury in that city* and
this ia bow ho turned the event, usually
considered a misfortune,to actual profit.
The pay was a dollar and a half a day
for four weeks, aggregating thirty-six
dollars. He found lodging* at fifteen
cents a night with a poor and dirty
family, the total bill being four dollars
and twenty cents, lie bought a tin
naj for twenty cents more, and there
Lis expenditure ended. How did lie
eat ? Every morning he went to a free
soup house, established for tho feeding
of newsboys and bootblacks, and had
his tin pail filled. Clo ir profit for the
month, thirty-one dollars and sixty
cents. Ho is a self-made man.
A Halt Lake City journal relates that
a citizen of that place, while digging
his turnips, had his attention directed
to one monstrous turnip by reason of a
Blight motion, observable while the
turnip was lying on the ground. On
cutting it open a good-sized frog tum
bled oat and bopped off.

steamship company of Han Frinciwi,

Meliean cent hie two children, after
thifl happened, to lua father-in-law in
S. Orleans. They were a hoy and a
girl, and aa uitereatuig aa ehildreu
could he. Home time after they ar
rtvol at New Orleans the mother left
Halt Lake and went and got them and
alerted to I'tah with them. The almost
broken-hearted father left lua business
to look after lua children. On arriving
ut New York he heard of I'ratt, ami
tracked him to Ht. lamia. Then he
Unit all eight of him aud Went to New
Orleans. Arriving there ho heard of
hia wife and children in Texan with a
caravan going to Utah. Ho went to
Texan, ami there he intercepted letter#
written in cipher to Mr*. P. I*. l'arker,
Iho mummed name of hi* wife. Having
become able to decipher the letlcrn, lie
h-arned from them they were from
I'ratt, and he desired the earavan to
come to the neighborhood of Fort Oib-
BOU. Mr. McLean returned to New
Orleans, broken down in spirit, and
knew uot what to do. He rcaolved le
go to Fort Oilsaou, in the Cherokee
nation. He did so, and under the name
of JohllßoU (hi* secret being known to
the officers d the fort Iho captured his
wife and children, and I'ratt, slso.
They w ere arrested by the Lulled States
marshal, and takeu to Van Huron, be
fore United Htatea commissioner John
11. Ogden, for trial. Tho charges fi.r
stealing lus wife's clothing could not bo
sustained, ami there being no crime
km>wu to the laws of the United Btutes
under which ho could le held, he was
released. Never shall I forget the trial,
the great excitement ami popular de
sire for vengeance ou I'ratt. When
Mr. McLean appeared in court and
read the papers in cipher, written by
the old seri>eut, and stated the history
of his BO happy family being broken
up, the jirople desired to lynch I'ratt,
and he was put in jail to prevent it be
ing done. himself, became
so highly offended ami so deeply ex
cited that at one time he commenced
drawing ins pistol to kill him tu the
court room. I'ratt was secretly dis
charged early the next morning, but
the watchfulness of McLean found it
out, and he followed him and killed
luui, ami returned to town and gave
notice of the fact, lie then got some
assistance of his friends, ami took his
children to New Orleans or Han Frau
cisco, and his wife, who had been a
tughly intellectual woman, was, 1 think,
taken to an insane asylum. Of Mr.
McLean it may be said that he jras a
gentleman of tine education,great busi
ness habits, a kind, generous, true and
trusty friend, overflowing with human
kindness—indeed, there are very few
like lum. His act was approved and
juntitled by all tin* people. Many a
time lias the melancholy reflection

A very remarkable ra*e, showing the
influence of mind over matter, was il
lustrated at .Mmgaut Valley, N. Y. A
peddler entered the tlwelhug of a citi
zen, and endeavored to sell some of hi*
ware* to the lady of the house. It the
course of the conversation she remarked
that her husband, who wo* iu tho next
room, WBH a cripple ami had not been
able to move from hi* ln-d in many
yearn. On learning this the peddler
made a dastardly iK-satilt upon the lady,
who struggled with him bravely, but
was about to be overpowered when, by
a superhuman i ffort tho husband
leaped from the bed. seized a crutch,
and felled the scoundrel to the ground.
lU'Artion immediately set in, however,
and, having saved his wife's honor, he
fell to tbe fltKir, ilea i. The (nnldler es
caped, and great excitcmeut prevails in

Stealing.
It is very singular how often people
claiming to be respectable take soap
and towels by mistake from hotel bed
rooms when tliev depart. In s<>!n®of
the large hotels this thoughtlessness on
the part of guests has gotten to be a
great annoyance and something of an
expense to the proprietor. Wo fear that
it will come to this—that soap will have
to be charged and towels nailed lo the
washstands, and on the buck of the
door an appendix to the usual notice
will request guests not to carry off the
bedeteads by mistake!

A MOTIIEB'S Cor RAOK. —A little girl,
while plaving on a railroad track at
llollidaysfitirg, J'a., got her foot so
wedged in a frog that she was held fast.
Her mother saw tho predicament and
hoard an approaching train. She ran
to the rosette of her child, but could
not extricate the foot. The train enme
on, and although the engineer npplied
the brakes, it was clear that it conUl
not be stopped quick enough. The

life was saved.
Exports of Muslral Instruments.
Official records of Custom House re
turns at Washington show that the
total value of musical instruments ex
ported from the Uuited States during
the year ending June MO, 1874, was
$550,327. Of this, $258,170 were for
pianos and $292,151 for parlor or reed
i organs. Of this latter amount $103,-
I 109, or more than one-half of the whole,
were of the cabinet organs made by the
Mason & Hamlin Orgau Co., which
bid fair to become ns famous in Europe
j as they have long been in America.
This company certainly have reason to
be prond of the fact that tho European

Within the last few months a con

upon lir. Walker, the proprietor of the
popular medicine known aa Vinegar
UitU-ra, and assured him that, in their
belief, his preparation ia an infallible
antidote for rum and tobacco. The
, minute details which have been fur

accuracy of the statements. This new
i claim of a great remedy to the confi

thoroughly adapted to the cure of

i>r. J. Walker's California f in
egar Bitters ar a purely Veffet*Ma
preparation, mads chiefly from tba na
ture herbs found on iha lower ran gee at
the Sierra Nevada mountains of Caludr
nia, the mediciual properties of which
1 are exiracled there6otu without the use
of Alcohol. The question is almost
daily asked. "What is ibe cause of lbs
unparalleled success of Vinegar Bit-
TEHsf"* Our answer is. that they remove
the cause of disease, and the patient re
covers his health. They are the great
blood purifier and a life-giving pnucipie,
a perfect Kcnovator and lcvigorator
of the svstem. Never before io the
hisloiy of' the world be* s medians beea
compounded poaaktoitig lbs remarkable
quail urn of Yixkgab Dirntu in beshnftbe
sick of every disease roan u beir to. Tbey

The properties of Dr. Walter's
Vikboas lIIT7 ku are ApenenL luanhoretic,
Csnninsiire, Nutritious. Laxative, Diuretic,
bedauve. Counter ImUuit, Sudorific, Altecse
Lre. and Ar,L Bilious.
Grateful Thousands proclaim Vrx
eg ar Bitters the most wonderful In
vigorsat that ever sustained the susktag
system.
No Person can fake these Bitters
according to directions, and remain ion*:
unwell, provided their bone* are not de
stroyed by mineral poison or other
means, and vital organs wasted beyond
repair.
Bilious Remittent and Inter
mittent Fevers which are so preva
lent in the valleys of our great rivers
throughout the United States, especially
those of the Mississippi, Ohio, Missouri,
Illinois. Tennessee, Cumberland. Arkan
sas. Bed. Colorado. Brazos. KlO Grande,
i'carl, Alabama, Mobile, Savannah, Ro
anoke, James, and many others, with
their vast tributaries, throughout our
entire country during the Summer and
Autumn, and remarkably so during sea
sons of unusual heat and dryness, are
invariably accompanied by extensive de
rangements of the stomach and liver,
and other abdominal viscera. In their
treatment, a purgative, exerting a pow
erful influence upon these various or
gans, is essentially necessary. There
is no cathartic for "the purpose equal to
Dr. J. Walker's Vixegar Bitters,
as tbey will speedily remove the dark
colored viscid matter with which the
bowels are loaded, at the same time
stimulating the secretions of the liver,
aud generally restoriug the healthy
fauctions of the digestive organs.
Fortify the body against disease
by purifying all its fluids with Vixegar
: Bitters. No epidemic can take hold
of a system thus fore-armed.
Dyspepsia or Indigestion, Head
ache. Pain in the Shoulders, Coughs,
Tightness of the Chest, Dizziness. Sour
Eructations of the Stomach. Bad Tasto
in the Mouth. Bilious Attacks. Palpita
tation of the Ifcart. Inflammation of the
Lungs. Pain in the region of the Kid
neys, aud a hundred other painful symp
toms, are the offsprings of Dyspepsia.
One bottle will prove a better guarantee
of its merits than a lengthy advertise
ment. .
Scrofula, or King's Evil, Whito
Swailing*. Ulcers. Erysipelas, Swelled Neck,
Goitre. Scrofulous Inflammations Indolent
Inflammations, Mercurial Affections, Old
Sores, Eruptions of tho Skin, Sore Eyes, etc.
In these, as in all other constitutional Bis
rsse*. Walk kr'h Vixecar Bittkrx have
shown their great curative powers in tho
most obstinate and intractable cases.
For Inflammatory and Chronic
Rheumatism. Gout, Bilious. Remit
tent and Intermittent Fevers, Diseases of
the Blood, Liver, Kidneys and Bladder,
these Bitters have no euual. Such Diseases
are caused by Vitiated Blood*
Mechanical Diseases. —Persons en
gaged in Paints and Minerals, such as
Plumbers, Type-setters, Gold-beaters, and
Miners, as they advance in life, are subject
to paralysis of the Bowel*. To guard
against this, take a dose of Walker's Vix
koar Bitt i?its occasionally.
For Skin Diseases, Eruptions, Tet
ter, Sal'.-Khctim, Blotches, Spots, Pimples,
Pustules, Boils, CaYbuncles, Ring-worms,
Scald head. Sore Eyes, Erysipelas. Itch,
Scurfs. Discolorations of the Skin, Humors
and Diseases of the Skin of whatever name
or nature, are literally dug up and carried
out of the system in a'short time by the use
of these Bitters.
Pin, Tape, and other Worms,
lurking in the system of so many thousands,
[ are effectually destroyed and re'moVed. No
I system of medicine, no vermifuges, no an-
thelminitics will free the system from worms
like these Bitters.
For Female Complaints, in young
or old, married or single, at the dawn of wo
manhood, or the tarn of life, these Tonic
i Bitters display so decided an influence that
improvement is soon perceptible.
Cleanse the Vitiated Blood when
ever yon find its imparities bursting through
the skin in Pimples, Eruptions, or Sores;
cleanse it when yon find it obstructed and
sluggish in the veins; cleanse it when it u
| fool; your feelings will tell you when. Keep
! the blood pore, and the health of the system
will follow.
