A Swindle.
A nw dodge for swindling has been put

tiut to take all the butter the form can
t'.:r:iih at fifty cents por pound. Further,
k will be gathered up by fast special teams

rvteiK-e is that butter during the winter,
in larire cities, will be very scarce. In this
v.v all the farmers in a district are con
trr.' tod with, and arrangements are made
t. come for . their butter ou certain days

into t'Gvet in two weeks. A few dnys af-

A remarkable address was delivered bv

of the e irth's iiitcrior can by any possibility

riav sa. with almost perfect certainty, that

'Mjr'cra'ure of liquefaction, it is, I think

rigidity in the crust could prevent it from

A Proclamation.
IJy the President of the United States :
Fro n year to year we have been accus-t.-rael
to pause in our daily pursuits and
s.t apart a time to offer our thanks to Al
mighty (iod f r the special blcssiugs. He
lias vouchesafed to us, with our prayers for
a continuance thereof. We have at this
time equal reason to be thankful for His
continued protection, and for the many ma
'erinl blessings His bounty has bestowed.
In ailition to these favors accorded to us
ls individuals, we have especial occasion to
txrres our hearty thanks to Almighty
j.d that by His providence and guidance
our government established a century ago
has been enabled to fulfill the purpose of
its f unders in offering an asylum to the
je "!e of every race, securing civil and re
hijus liberty to all within its borders, and
Eieting out to every individual alike justice
aril equality before the laws. It is more
over especially our duty to offer our hum
lie ravers to the Father of all Mercies for
a coutiuuince of His divine favor to us a
Cation and as individuals.
I'y reason of all these considerations, I,
Ulysses S. (J rant, President of the United
States, do recommend to the people of the
lViU.-d States to devote the thirtieth day
'-f November next to the expression of their
tiiahks aud prayers to Almighty God, and
liymg Lsiie their daily avocations aud all
secular occupations, to assemble in their re
fpectives j Iaexs of worship and observe
'-h day as a day of thanksgiving and rest.
In witness whereof I have hereunto set
hand and caused the seal of the United
Sutes to be affixed. Done at the city of
Washington this twenty-sixth day of Oct o-b;-T,

A Notable Clock.
m In the Kansas building, on the Centen
nial grounds, is a clock whose peculiar
excellence is that it requires winding but
once in a hundred years. It is said to keep
the most accurate time, telling the month
of the year, the day of the month, the day
of the week, and the time of the day ; and
yet the inventor claims that it does all this
with much less power than is required with
any other clock escapement ever inveuted.
Who would like a ceutury clock ?
A Spider in the Stomach.
- A short time since a young lady, a resi
dent of Brooklyn, Pa., experienced a creep
ing sensatiou in her uosc after she had re
tired for the night, aud all efforts to re
move the annoyance were without the de
sired effect, the difficulty remaining for
several days, merely changing to a location
further up in the nostril. "At length it
seemed to pass down into the throat, caus
ing a choking sensation. Immediately af
ter its disappearance the victim experienced
actute paius in the stomach aud called medi
cal assistance in vain, the ouly thing that
gave her any relief being copious doses of
brandy, which failed to produce any of the
usual effects. Finally severe vomiting en
sued, after one whole night's suffering and
the patient irivin-r ud Iiodcs of life, the
. ,
cause of the trouble was removed, and an
exmination proved it to be a small particle
of blood and matter, in the center of which
was a common sized black spider.
A Remarkable Frog Story.
A remarkable incident occurred at a
Canada sawmill in Actou while a pine log
was being sawed up into lumber. The
outside slab and one board had ' been cut
off, and while the workmen were turning
over the log they were surprised to see a
large toad poke his bead out of a hole in
which he was imbedded, and where he had
barely escaped being cut up by the atf,
How the stranger got there was a mystery,
as he was completely incased in the wood,
with on possible means of ingress or earess.
As the log was the fourth or fifth from the
butt of the tree, his position mint have
been at least fifty or sixty feet from the
ground, and he had no doubt grown up
with it from infancy, being probably hun
dreds of years old. The animal was quite
flat, and nearly as large as a man's hand.
He was perfectly blind, but when taken
from his bed he made use of his limbs to
crawl away. The tree was perfectly sound
with the exception of a decayed ypot of
sbout a foot in length below the hollow
place in which he was imbedded.. How
did he get there, and what did he live on ?
IT DIDN'T SUIT.
Two or three weeks ago a Detroit boy.
with his father to let him ship aboard a
lake schooner. The old man smiled a grim
smile, took the case under consideration,
and in a few days the boy was on the roll
ing deep, having shipped as a greenhorn on
a vessel in the lumber trade. He sailed to
Saginaw, came down and crossed tn Tole
do, and next day he appeared in Detroit,
lame and stiff, his throat sore, one eye near
ly shut and a feeling of humblcnesi ran
uing all through him.
4iWhat ! back again ?" cried the old man.
as the boy entered the house.
"Yes, father, I want to saw all the wood
for winter, bring ii all the cful- clean out
the cellar and paint the barn, and you
needn't give me but two meals a day."
"Don't you like sailing T'
"Father, you don't begin to realize any
thing about it. The captain sailed right
along on Sunday, the same as any other
day, and I believe lie swore harder. He
wouldn't give mo an umbrella when it
rained, he made me sit up most all night,
and two or three times he called me up at
midnight and made mc haul on ropes and
drag old sails around. There wasn't a
single night when all of us got off to bed
at nine o'clock, and there wasn't a day that
he didn't boss us around and break in on
us every time we got to reading anything
good ! I like laud, father, and I wish you
owned a farm !"
The Foreign Exhibition.
Over half of all the poods exhibited iu
the foreign sections of the Centennial
Exposition have been sold, and it is im
probable that more than one-third of all
such exhibits will remain to be taken home.
Only a small portion of the Mexican dis
play has been disposed of, as it is mainlj
illustrative of the mineral wealth of the
country. Holland win take nine nomc
except the representations of her public
works. American representatives ot fcwis
firms have purchased nearly all of the
Swiss exhibits. France will take back the
most of her exhibits. Xot more than one
third of the Belgium display will be reship
ped across the Atlantic. The exhibitors
from Great Britain and Ireland have found
a market fur the preater portion of their
wares. Brazil will present one-half of her
display the government exhibit to pub
lic institutions of the United States, and
will piehansre the remainder for scientific
apparatus of domestic manufacture. Italy's
art sales have been trining, dui me saies oi
her exhibits iu the Main building have
been satisfactory. The entire agricultural,
niscatorial and mineralogical exibit cf
Sweden has been presented to the Smith
sonian Institute, and the remainder of her
display has been almost disposed of. Canada
sold nothing except about 65,000 wotth of
furs. About fifteen per cent, ot the Oer
man exhibits will remain unsold, while one
third of the Austrian display will be taken
home. Hutitria has sold about one-half of
her goods, and Spain a somewhat less
proportion. Twkey has sold little except
her mats and carpets. Only a small por
tion of the Egyptian display was purchased.
Probably two'-thirdct of the Japanese goods
will be left in this country. Ooe-third of
the Chinese goods will remain unsold.
These estimates do not include instances
where donations were made to the Penn
sylvania niusuenr by exhibitors, or where

A Connecticut company is getting up a

crawl over it.
The Cost of a Menagerie.
The Central Park menagerie, in New
ork city, contains six hundred and twenty-five
animals, being an increase of one hun
dred and seventy-three during the last three
years. The expense of supporting this es
tablishment is very large, and will average
$j0,0U0 a year for food, beside the salarus
of the keepers. Some of the tax payers
seriously object to such a use of public
money. The cost of the animals is net
large, and SG.000 will cover the entire bill,
the chief expense being their support.
Rabbit Warfare in New Zealand.
Some years ago a colonist, with the idea
of benefiting New Zealand, took out a few
few pairs of rabbits and turned them out
in the country, forgetting how quickly these
animals multiply, and what little means
there are, in a country so thinly populated,
of keeping them in check. The conse
quence i3 that farms are devastated, crops
arc destroyed, and the earth overrun with
increasing swarms of these destructive rod
ent, and all the efforts of the colonists have
been futile to keep down their numbers. At
last a happy idea struck some persons who
had suffered from this curious plague.
They determined to import some weasels,
thinking that by their help they would be
able to accomplish the desired eud, and they
have offered as much as 325 a pair for
healty weasels.
Weasels, however, object to anything
like confinement, and, as they would" prob
ably die on the voyage out, Mr. Duckland,
to whose care the experiment has been con
fided, has determined to send out some pole
cat ferrets, which he imagines will be even
more valuable farmers' friends. Iu thus
making use of one branch of animal life to
keep check on another, and so to maintain
the "balance of power" between them, he
is simply following nature. They have had
instauces of this scientific adaptation in
England iu the employments of swans to
destroy the superabundant growth of weeds
in rivers and ponds, and iu the protection
of insect eating birds to defend crops from
the attacks of insect pests. It is to be
hoped the battle of nature will be fought
out to tho satisfaction of the colonists of
New Zealand, and that they will not have
cause presently to import some new addi
tion to their fauna to keep down the too
rapid increase of polecat ferrets.
