The Desert Pirates.
On the 14th of March, 1878, Mr.
Grattan Geary left Bombay for the Per
sian gulf, with the intention of travers
ing the sultan's dominions, and learning
for himself the actual condition of af
fairs resulting from the Turkish system
of government, complicated by the with
drawal of Turkish garrisons from Asia
Minor and the defeat of the Turkish
armies in Europe. Traveling by him
self, and over routes seldom traversed
except by large parties well protected,
he saw and conversed with people of
various races and ranks. The chief
clangers to which lie was exposed were
the plundering Arabs and Kurds, whimr
the absence ofrfhe regular troops embold
ened to rob and terrorize all the country
outside the principal towns.
At Muscat, the capital of Oman,' in
Arabia, he found a city with streets so
narrow . that no four-footed animasl
larger than cats or dogs could pass
through them, notwithstanding that the
place Iras 40,000 inhabitants and a con
siderable trade. The bazaars are cov
ered over, and arc thronged with l!e
douins fresh from the desert. All were
armed to the; teeth. A f.ivorite weapon is a
straight, two-handed sword, the sweep
of which jvould take off a man's thigh.
The swordsman carried over their
shoulders small, round shields of rhi
noceros hide. Half a century ago a small
number of the " lieni Rou Ali " were nr
sacked by an English officer and 350
troops, when the Bedouins rushed upon
their assailants, and cut down 200 of
them in the twinkle of an eye. This led
to a large expedition being sent from
Bombay, which succeeded in defeating
the swordsmen. The British resident at
Muscat has a finger very often in local
insurrections, and summons a warship
now and then to the aid of the iiwunn.
or governor. Xot many years ago the
gunboat Teaser fired over the town at a
crowd of Bedouins who had taken a
position on the hills near the city, with
the intention of sacking it. The Arabs
said tin; shells had eyes, and could see
where to fall, since they were out ol
view of the ship behind the hills. A
shell fell in a field and did not explode,
whereupon it was surrounded by the
Bedouins, one of whom struck its per
cussion cap with a spear, being de
termined to put out its " eye," the eye
by which it had seen its way to their
position. Eleven of their tribe paid t he
penalty for this singular piece or viixlic
tiveness. Two forts, called Jalali or the
Glorious, and Mirani, the name of a
Biluchee governor, protect the roadstead.
At times thesT forts are on bad terms,
and blaze away at each other across the
harbor and in front of the town, to the
great detriment of business. Fort Jalali

History on Bark.
A short time ago a discovery of several
mounds, evidently artificially construct
ed and not the handiwork of nature, was
made at what is known as Sheridan's
drive, on a range of hills immediately to
tho west of Fort Leavenworth, Kan.
Within these mounds were traces of
stonework as. artistic and nearly perfect
as that of the present day. A party went
to the mounds and found a sort of book
of records, written, or transcribed rather,
upon pieces of bark, and placed together
like the leaves of a book and tied with
smaller pieces of bark. Among the ex-
Iiloring party was a gentleman from
toston, who had made the language of
Mexico a study, and who, upon examin
ation of the records found in the mounds,
found a similarity between the writings
in the records and tho tuicient language
of Mexico during the time of the Monte
zumas. The record is a history a chronicle of
events. No dates are given, but from
historical analogy it is to be inferred that
it must have been about 1420, during the
reign of the Montezumas in Mexico,
when the emperors of that name had it
all their own way in not only their own
section of the country, but up toward our
West as well. The records give the de
tails of a great battle, probably on the
very spot where the metropolis of Kan
sas now stands. According to the rec
ords, the battle raged for three days and
the ground was strewn with slain, and
after the conflict was over the victors,
with the prisoners they had taken, re
versed their steps and went back to
Mexico, .where the captives were to be
offered .up upon the altars as a sacrifice
to their god of war. The records were
evidently written by the victors, and
placed by thorn in the mounds where
they were found. The records consist of
ten large pieces of bark, flattened out,
about ten or twelve inches in size, and
bound tight together by thongs of bark
cut into long strips and pressed. They
have been sent to Boston, and are to be
placed in the State Historical Museum
there. PoUer' fi(oiltldy.
FARM, GARDEN, AND HOUSEHOLD.
When Mitl Where to Apply Wood Aahe..
The agricultural editor of the Hew
York World says: Wood ashes, among
the best of saline manures and atoo nmong
tho most economical, are coming to be
more and tnoro appreciated every year.
Farmers now, as a rulo, husband every
pound made on the farm and buy them
whenever they rnn be procured at a rea
sonable rate. The timo has gone by for
oxclianging ashes from good liftrd wood
for-a few pounds Of soap.
Leached ashes, while less valuable,
contain all the elements of the unleached,
having been deprived only of a part of
their ; potash and soda. Ashes benefit all
soils not already rich in the principles
they containi And nitty be drilled in with
roots nnd grain, sown broadcast on
meadows or pastures, or mixed with the
muck heap.
Tho quantity of ashes to be applied' to
the acre depends, as does that of nil fer
tilizers, on the character of the soil and
crop cultivated. Crops which exhaust
the salts, as potatoes, turnips and all roots,
clover, . lueern... peas, beans and the
grosses, are benefited by nshes. The
crops named thrive well under an nppli--
!..! i. ... .i i .... i .V
vnuun oi iiMirs nil uonc-uusi, ami xneir
effects are also strengthened when mixed
with gypsum. Light soils call for light
dressings, say from ten to fourteen
bushels of unleached and twice that
quantity of leached ashes per acre. Rich
lands or clays bear heavier dressings.
Repeated dressings of ashes like repeated
dressings of lime or gypsum, without a
corresponding addition of vegetable or
barnyard manures are not adniissable,
for they will eventuallv exhaust lands
when applied alone. Where the entire
surface of the soil is covered with vege
table growth either of the three materials
mentioned acts with great effect. For
this reason ashes may lie applied un
mixed with other fertilizers' to meadow
lands for a longer time than to any other
crop.
In reply to question asked at the E1
niira (N. Y.) Farmers' club in regard to
the value of leached ashes ami the best
manner of apply ing them to general crops,
as corn, wheat and oats, the following
information was gained: I'aclied ashes
vary so much in their character that no
precise estimate of their value can be
made. Heavy clay is liable to be in
juriously compacted by liberal dressings
of ashes, leached or 'unleached, unless
the land is sod. in which case ashes
spread on the surface tend to increase the
crop of grass. The safest and bel tiseol
leached ashes on most kinds of soil
is spreading them on old meadow
or old pasture. Working them
into land on which potatoes are to be
planted in the same season is also a good
way to use them. .Good allies make a
valuable dressing for wheat land and for
corn, but the leached ashes are too un
certain in their character to recommend
for such use.
Coal ashes are inferior in quality to
those from wood and vegetables, but are
nevertheless of value and are to be ap
plied to the soil in a similar manner, as
they tend with their abundance of cin
ders to the mechanical division of soils.
Coal nshes are beneficial to heavy rather
than light soils.
Farmers, in consideration of the above
facts, cannot he too strongly encouraged
to follow the practice of collecting and
reducing to ashes all the rubbish of the
farm not otherwise available, such as
brush, old wood, sods, rags in fact
everything which cumbers the place as
useless matter. Burnt earth is not only
a manure in itself, but is most useful to
mix with artificial fertilizers which can
not bo easily distributed alone or too
Strong to sow among seed unmixed with
other material.
llrmai'kulile Array of 3tcw Fmlt.
The year 1878, it appears, has been
rendered memorable to American pomo
joitists by reason of the large number oi
new native fruits wliich were originated
or introduced during that time. The list
of peaches especially has been great iy in
creased. In a paper read before the
West'-rn New York Horticultural Society
by William C. Barry descriptions of
thirty peach seedlings never before d"
scrihed were enumerated as having come
to tho notice of this well-known nursery
man, while many more were fruited
which are not yet made known to the
public. According to Mr. Barry the
Slate of New York offers several candi
dates for popular favor. From the great
metropolis even come two new varieties
which apparently possess many valua
ble qualities. In Western New York
there are several seedlings which will
undoubtedly prove desirable. One of
them is believed to be the largest and
earliest of all the very early peaches.
Several excelWnt early and late varieties
have originated in Ohio. Passing over
a vast extent of country are found a
number of new kinds in Missouri, Kan
sas and Nebraska. From Kansas comes
the information that the whole list of
'arly peaches known to the public, so
far lis fruited in Kansas in 1878, is sur
passed both in earliness and size by at
least fifty new seedlings of Kansas origin,
many of wliich bore their first fruit that
year. At the South, too, many promis
ing new sorts are mentioned. Thus, as
if by magic, during the same year and in
various sections of country new peaches
have sprung up in such numbers as to
astonish and almost perplex the fruit
culturist.
Touching upon tho few new apples
brought to notice the past year, Mr.
Barry had a word to say about the Rus
sian apples which have caused more or
less discussion. Of the varieties under
trial for some time several have given
evidence of value, and while they can
hardly bo compared in quality to our
best apples, still they are fair and will
doubtless prove desirable in those locali
ties where only hardy varieties succeed.
What portion of the largo number of
new strawberries introduced are worthy
of cultivation Mr. Barry thought it diffi
cult as yet to say. Another season's ex
perience will be required" before definite
and reliable information can be given
concerning many of them. Of a number
which have been well tested the Sharp
less is given a prominent place, as are the
Cumberland, Triumph and Crescent
seedling. Among new raspberries the
Gregg was pronounced a decided im
provement on the older varieties of black
caps. New York ,World.
Early Corn.
A correspondent of VicWs Magazine
gives the following directions for bring
ing corn to maturity early in the season,
adding that he picked corn last year in
side of sixty days from tho time of plant
ing : " Let the conditions of the soil and
manure be the best you can command,
and aside from the frequent wading and
hoeing, stirring the ground thoroughly,
thin the stalks to three or four three is
best if you would have the largest ears
and most of them, Pluck out most un
mercifully every sucker and non-bearing
stalk that process alone will hasten
your corn a week or ten days, as I have
come to believe from experiment. I
have added this year a top-dressing at
the hill, when the corn was well up a
compost of one part plaster, two parts
ashes, and two parts fine manure, which,
I think, has been a great advantage."
Those who wish early corn should not
only have for seed, what is called " an
early kind," but they should obtain it
from as for north as possible. Sled
corn raised in Canada .and taken south
will come to perfection one, two or three
weeks earlier than that ripened on the
spot. The reason is that the seed raised
in the north has adapted itself to a short
season. This is true, iq a measure, of
all see4s,
Rnford's Career.
The Cincinnati Enquirer devotes nn
article to Henry Buford, the Kentuckian
who shot nnd killed Judge ,1. M. EllioU.
of the Kentucky Court of Appeals, in the
streets of Frankfort. The Enquirer says :
Buford's history shows him to bo a
man utterly regardless of law, of his ow
life or that of others, when his passions
are aroused. Somewhere in the '50s Bu
ford was the hero of an affray on tlio
ington fair grounds, wliich had -a great
deal of notoriety at the time. He nnd n
gentleman named Thomas, of Mt. Ster
ling, had quarreled, and, meeting on the
fair grounds, immediately opened lire on
each other. Buford displayed character
istic t-Oolnoss nnd recklessness, changing
his (position oncfi'i-while. Thomas -was
firing, to avoid shooting in the direction
of some ladies, nnd at another time de
liberately taking a pin from the lapel of
his rout nnd picking the tube of his pis
tol, which had failed to go off. He
wounded Thomas, and escaped unhurt
himself. A gentleman of Lexington
named Ferguson was keeping Thomas
supplied, with pistols. Gen. Abe
Buford made at him with a bowie-knife
rind slashed at his throat. Ferguson
ducked his head and the knife shnved
his beard, taking off a good-sized piece
of his chin, which fell into the posses
sion of Mr. Mulligan, of Lexington, who
exhibited it for some time in his store
window ns a curiosity.
Another .incident in Buford's career
happened nt the time when the three
colonels were editing tho Times, in
Louisville. Buford sent a noted hello in
that city a bucket of sausage from his
home near Versailles. Theodore O'llara.
author of the famous "Bivouac of the
Head," one of the three colonels, made
the present n subject of ridicule in his
paper. As soon as the paper reached
Versailles, Buford, taking a friend with
him, got in his buggy, and by driving
rapidly nnd taking fresh horses from
time to time nrri veil in Louisville early
in the night. Reaching the Gait Housb
and going in, be found O'llara at the
bar taking a drink. Stepping up to him
and inquiring as to his authorship,
O'llara acknowledged it. and Buford at
once struck him. They struggled,
clinched anil fell, O'llara underneath.
O'llara drew a pistol, and reaching
a rou lid Buford, tried to shoot him; but
his si-use of humor prevailing over his
wrath, ho got to laughing so that lie
could not discharge it. They were sepa
rated before any damage was done be
yond a good beating for O'llara, and
lbiford returned home.
Still another, attended with worse re
sults, was his assault on Mr. Ulysses
Turner, of AVoodford, a brilliant young
lawyer, and at one timo a member of the
banking firm of Saylor, Shelby & Co.,
of Lexington. Buford had some busi
ness controversy with him, attacked
him, and beat hiin so brutally about the
bend that his life was despaired of, his
health wrecked and his sight permanent
ly destroyed. Mr. Turner died a short
time ago, after years of suffering and
blindness.
Buford's last violent exploit before the
present murder was his defiance of the
authority of the sheriff of Henry county
in the earlier stages of the suit,' the final
decision of which was the cause of the
as:issination.
The Sonp Stone.
A lady in the outskirts of Denver was
the victim tho other day of a tramp's
practical joke. 'Even in these vagabonds
there is an occasional vein of humor
which is worth preserving. Tho inci
dent happened in thiswise: About the
middle. of the afternoon a tramp put in
an appearance and asked politely if he
could bo permitted to cook, for himself a
plate of soup.
" I have the ingredients with me," he
said, displaying a cobblestone about the
size of an apple.
The lady very naturally looked at
bin in surprise.
" You can't make soup out of that
rock, can you ?" she inquired.
" Oh, yes, madam. This is what we
call a soup stone." .
" Well, I should like to see you do it ;"
and she forthwith made up a fire in the
stove and the tramp commenced opera
tions. He filled the stove pan with
water, and after it commenced to boil,
very carefully deposited the stone in a
pan in the water."
" I shall have to trouble you for a lit
tle seasoning," he said, nnd the lady has
tened to get him an onion, a piece of
meat and a pomato. These were can -fully
cut up and put in to boil along
with the stone. In a short timo a de
licious plate of soup was prepared. The
lady tasted it and was delighted with the
flavor. The fellow sat down and ate,
and his hostess immediately ndded what
was necessary to make a substantial
meal. When he left he said he could
get plenty of soup stones on his waya, nil
he woulcf leave that one with her as an
evidence of how sincerely he appreciated
her kindness. She was firmly convinced
that she had come into possession of a
treasure. That night she told her hus
band of the circumstance. He listened
to the recital and then inquired inno
cently: .
" l)on't you think the meat nnd the
onion and tho tomato would have made
a very good soup without the rock?"
Gradually the trick began to dawn
upon her, and if you want to make that
lady mad, you have only to ask her for
the loan of her soup stone. Rocky Moun

The Milky Way.
The milky way forms the grandest
feature of the firmament. It completely
encircles the whole fabric of the skies,
and sends its light down upon us, accord
ing to the best observations, from no less
than 18,000,000 of suns. These are planted
at various distances, too remote to be
more than little understood; hut their
light, the medium of measurement, re
quires for its transit to our earth periods
ranging from ten to 1,000 years. Such is
the sum of the great truths revealed to us
by the two Hersehels, who, with a zeal
which no obstacle could daunt, have ex
plored every part of tho prodigious circle.
Sir William Ilerschel, after accomplish
ing his famous section, believed that he
had gauged the milky way to its lowest
depths, affirming that he could follow a
cluster of stars with his telescope, con
structed expressly for the investigation,
as far back as would require 330,000 years
for the transit of light. But, presump
tuous as it may seem, we must be per
mitted to doubt this assertion, as the
same telescope in the same masterhand
was not sufficiently powerful to resolve
even the nebulas in Orion. Nor must we
forget that light, our only clew to those
unsearchable regions, expands and de
composes in its progress, and, coming
from a point so remote, its radiant waves
could be dispersed in 6pace. Thus the
reflection is forced upon us that new
clusters and systems, whose beaming
light will never reach our earth, still
throng beyond, and that, though it is
permitted to man to behold the immens
ity he shall never see the bounds of crea-U-..

Automatic Machinery.
An extraordinary statement in regard
to the introduction of automatic machin
ery into some factories not far from Low
Moor, near Bradford, England, has ap
peared in the Warelimtseman nnd Drap
ers'1 Trade Journal. The writer says:
" We have visited the Oak mills by night,
in company with Mr. Burns and a friend.
The building itself was in darkness, but
we could hear the rumble of machinery
as we approached. The door was un
locked and couple of candles were light
ed. By the dim light wo saw tho ma
chines all at work, and passing from one
to another we noted also what they were
producing. There was no possibility of
deception, and no room for doubt. We
were not there to examine the construct
tion of the machinery; it was sufficient
to be able to verify the main fact which
is that when tho working hours of the
mills are over, the lights lire put out, the
building is locked up and the machines
are left working all through the night,
producing large quantities of beautiful
articles in great variety of. patterns in
silk, cotton ami wool." The method by
which this result lias been attained re
mains a secret. The only night attend
ant at the factory appears to be an en
gineer, inasmuch as tho engine and boiler
cannot be left to themselves.

A Useful Dog.
A well-dressed young woman entered
a restaurant not far from the terminus of
the Xew Orleans railway, and told the
waiter to bring her in all haste a basin
of soup, ns she was about to take her
departure by the next train. ' This was
Immediately done, nnd after having
taken it and paying the waiter she was
hurrying nwav, saying that she' should
certainly be late,' when she perceived
her pnsago barred by a largp dog, wliich
refused to let her pass. She attempted
by caresses to put it aside, but the ani
mal held firm and opposed her way.
" I shall certainly be late!" she cried.
" Po take away thnt horrible dog."
Tho waiter and the master cried out,
" Vidoeq, Vidocq, give way, sir!"
But tho dog riever stirred. One of the
waiters here whispered something to the
master, who, coming up to the young
woman said :
"If my dog prevents you from leaving
the premises tho reason must be that you
have some of the property belonging to
the house about you. You had better
give it up at once and go your way."
. The person thus nddressed at first af
fected great indignation at being so
accused, but nt last drew out a silver
spoon, which she hnnded to the owner of
the restaurant. The dog then allowed
her to past, and she was hurrying off
when she was seized by her manto'rt
and forced to stop. This time it was n
police agent, who had been on the look
out for several persons suspected of being
concerned in a robbery, and who it was
thought might attempt to get off by the
railway. She was arrested, nnd on ex
nmination her mantelet was found to be
furnished with immense pockets for re
ceiving pilfered goods. It Is said that
this is not the lirst time that the dog
belonging to the restaurateur has shown
himself a faithful guardian of his mas
ter's property.
A World-Wide Reputation.
Dr. It. V. Pierce, having aoquired a i epila
tion in the treatment of chronic diseases result
ing in a professional business fur exceeding his
individual ability to conduct, some years ago
induced several medical gentlemen to associate
themselves with hira, as the faculty of the
World's dispensary, the consulting department
of which has since been merged with the In
valids hotel. The organization has been com
pleted and incorporated under statute enacted
by the legislature of the State of New York,
under tho name nnd style of the "World's Dis
pensary Medical Association."
We clip tho following lrom Uie Buffalo
Express :
A branch of the " World's Dispensary Medi
cal Association " is to be established in London,
Kiu., a step which the continually increasing
European business of the Disponsnry has been
found to warrant, and next week Dr. U. T.
Bodorthn will sail for the groat metropolis
named, to superintend tho organization ot the
new institution. This gentleman has been for
some four years associated with Dr. Pierce in
a position of responsibility, and is well qualified
for the duty now entrusted to him. Hereto
fore tho foreign business ol tho World's Dis
pensary has been transacted through the
agency of prominent druggists, but it lias ns.
sumed such proportions as to requiro more di
rect cure. Dr. Bedorthn will no doubt success
fully curry out his mission, being n gentleman
ol excellent business abilities and most pleas
ing address.
Perfect purity is restored to the circulation
when contaminated, if Scovill's Blood and Liver
Sirup is taken. Scrofulous, syphilitic and mer
curial disorders are completely vanquished by
it, persistence in tho use of the remedy being
nlouc required to accomplish a cure. Knip
tions of all kinds, sores, chronic rheumatism,
gout, liver complaint and goitre yield to its
remedial action, and it not only purines the
blood but vitidizcs the system. Sold by all
druggists.
