Somewhat disgustid, pertiklerly ez w hen he cnlistid tie wuz credited to Ohio, lie returned to Kentucky, determined to lite it out here. The Cross ltouds receeved biin quietly. He saved a little money out uv the scrvi and bought gome land up towards Uarrettstown, aid built onto it a cabin. Somehow the world didn't go smooth with bun.

Foltowio this jjiiulorchoon came another. He wuz at the Corners one day when Issaker UttvUt, in a playful mood, shot at him with a revolver, which the nigger resented, ehokio l-enker severly.

He had laid n long time, and he owed quite a number of bills at the Corners, wich he cood not pay.

The American Agriculturist for February, under tlie ubove head, replies tc "an anxious mother" "in regard to skating as a proper amusement for girls. Wo agree with tho editor when he says that ho can see no rea sonable objection to it on the score of health or morals. Wo have known occasional in stances of injury to the health from indul gence in this amusement, but it was clearly traceable to unsuitable clothing, and impru dent exposure alter tho exercise. The same causes would have been quite as damaging to the health of boys. It is a very common error to suppose tbut girls need clothing less substantial thau their brothers, because they usually spend much leas uf their time in the open air. This is ratheran argument for war mer clothing, that thty may feel tho change less, and bo guarded against taking cold. Too thin clothiug lor giils is a radical vice iu our household economy. A great outcry against thin shoes was made a few years ago, and the fashion was changed very much for the better. IJut this was only a singlo item in which reform was demauded. The girl is quite as sensible to cold us her brother, and demands as much clothing from head to foot. The want of it accounts for much of the neural gia, the rheumatism, and diseases of tho throat aud lunge, that afllict our American women. Tho English set us an admirable example in this respect. With a climate much less severe than ours in winter, they tlress much warmer, and their women aro trained from girlhood to, out-door pursuits and amusements. They grow up with robust constitutions, well acquainted with the mys teries of the field and garden, of the barn and stock-yard, as much accustomed to rid ing aud walking, and as capable of enduring fatigue as man. Their shoes may be a little clumsy, aud their complexion not so delicate, but they have what is hftter than any ex ternal grace, sound bodies, and that good common seuso which comes of pratical ac quaintance with out-door life. 1 heir refine ment is not measured by dress aid complex ion. We have welcomed the present fashion of skating, because it took our girls more into the open air, aud enabled them to share the amusements of the other sex. It is not ne cessarily too severe ; it strengthens the mus cles and accustoms the body to graceful movements. For aught we can see, the girls take to it as kindly as the boys, and it is quit.o as helpful in their physical traiuing. Of course this amusement, like any other, needs regulation, and must have its appro priate times and places. It may become s mania and interfere with more important matters. It may lead fo midnight excursions aud bad company. Thero is no pluco of absolute safety, eitUcr in work or play, for the young. They need amusements quite as mticii as work, and kindly oversight and guidance in both. A Nuballlule lor llouae ujer. A gentleman in Cambridge has invented a process by which wood may take the place of paper in tbe adornment of bouse wall: "A very delicate, simple and beautiful machiue ihas been constiucled, which will take a portion of a tree after it bus been cut tho right length and width, and shave it up iuto thin ribbons as wide as a roll of bouse paper, making iuu or 13U to the tucu. these rolls of wood are placed on the walls by laper-bangers w ith paste and brush, precise y in the same piftsuer with paper. The wood is wet when used, and really works easier than paper, because it is much more tough and pliable. In three days, when variety is sought for, oue can uoish the walls of his house iu different woods, to suit bis taste. Ouo room can be finished in bird's eye maple, arjotber iu chetUnut, another in cherry, another iu white wood, and so on. Thus he has no imitation, but the real, genu ine article upon big walls. Tbe eye tires of sc figures, such as we have in ordinary paper-hangings, but never of nature itself. The longer tho wood banging remains on the wall, tbe more distinct win tie me grain and color of tbe wood, Tbe expense of wood is lest than paper. Of course, if one wants to uiako a very handsome room, bo can uce expensive wood like rosewood ; but tbe ordinary kinds, gome of which are very handsome, are very cheap, Tbe walls of kilchini) aud common rooms can be covered in this war so as to make tbe expense very small. Tbe wood can bo oiled, vsrnUhed or shellacked, and then washed at pleasure, and tbui kept perfectly clean.

Thus all tastes could be gratified, and parties who may use this kind of hanging will find that it will stand very much longer than paper, and will improve by age." SplriliiuIiNm. Recently a man named McEwen, was in dicted at Newark, N. J., for appearing in tho streets in a nude condition. His trial occurred the present week, tho jury being out filtceti hours without agreeing upon u verdict. Tho case will bo understood from the testimony of Miss Altliea It..oo. young and handsome lady of nineteen ycuVs- mo viiuc me eiinuiuon occurred mo ther was greatly excited, owing much, I think, to the death of her sister, aim .i;.i . short time previously j I do not remember mo exact language sho or iMcEwcn used at tho time, but I am sure nothing improper was sail! by any one of us, ueither did wo make any immodest gestures at thin or n other time; I have known Mr. McEwen siuce last November ; our belief is about the same as we get from the Hible, and it is sim ilar to the so-called Spiritualism ; wo be lieve that we should do as Christ did that is commune with the spirits; nothing was done, on tho occasion referred to, either from lasciviousncss or wautonness ; I do not exactly believe the samo as the others do, though I did on New Year's Dnv mn. sidering the state of Mr. McEwen's mind, I tninn it was right for lum to do as ho did ; if ho was called to do fit) nnw T tiiinLr it would bo perfectly right; we had to mind what mother and tho spirits commamli.il n to do; they said ma must go into the streets naked if we did not show ourselves to the public at tho window; I went according to the teachings of the Scriptures, and tlicv say "Children, obey your parents," conse' quently I did so ; ma made every one in tho house do just what she wanted them to ; I do not think that Mr. McEweu would do so again, fori do not believe tho spirits want lum ; we believed iu Spiritualism before McEwen camo to our house; in all of our actions we acted on tho principle "that to mo jjuru an tilings are pure. ' In reply to the question as to whether McEwen ever undrjiAsed before 0 her pre sence, she said that she would rather not tell. Her answer being insisted upon she answered, "I have seen him do so before, but not very often; I think it was obout a month before New Year's when ha first commenced these exhibitions in our house ; Mr. McEwen is a tailor, and mother worked with him ; they attended to the business. while l did tho house jvork ; I have four brothers and sister: mv oldest brother ia cigbteeu years old, and the youngest three ; iiucu e&iiiiuuoiiB were mane before ma and myself, tho others not being present at the time ; these things were done under excite ment, and wcro never performed only at mother's request or with her consent ; all we did was to strip ourselves, nnd I do not re member of ever hearing ao improper word, or seeing an indecent act; McEwen occu pied a single bed in tho ball bedroom and ho generally slept alone, except when one of the children slept with him ; sometimes mother and myself passed the night with bim ; I did not ever think there was any harm in so doing, as nothing improper was done; McEwen was not in the habit of praying ; w hen we retired we slept toge ther ; ma aud I reclined on either side of McEwen ; nothing was said or done which was in tbe least improper; I have never heard of these th;ngs being doue anywhere elae ; I have a good opiuion of McEwen, and would not do the same with any other man, for I know that none are so pure as he ; I was a little timid at first, but had no great fear of Mr, McEwen. McEwen slept with us several times before New Year's day; ma did no, request me or Mr. McEwen to lie together: the bed was a sino-ln one: I generally sleep with mollter, which I have done most of the time since father died ; I was with Mr. McEwen alone oue night. when ma was sick, because she could not rest well whet) crowded. Mr. McEwen re tired first, and was asleep when I went to bed ; 1 remember notbiue that was said : I have never known him to take, or attempt to lane, aoy personal liberties at all while in our family ; I do not know why Mr. Mc Ewen appeared as be did on New Year's day, only that he did it at the request of mv mother ; ma did these things several times nersell ; 1 think lour times previously ; sho wanted to crucify the llesh, and show to the world that sho was pure. When she put uer arms arounu .nr. aictiwcn uecK, she represented herself as the mother of Christ, but I did not believe it, and thought that we were all ordiuary men and women ; 1 did not feel any sii&ioa at the time; thought mother was the first to undress ou this oc casion. ' I'rraervullon orguthr. A contributor to tho Shoe and Leather Reporter gives some valuable hints in rela tion to the preservation ot leather. The ex treine heart to which most men and woman exposo biwls and shoes during winter da pnves leatuer oi its vitality, renuering it liable to break and crack. Patent leather particularly is often destroyed in this man ner. When leather becomes so warm as to give off the smell of leather, it is singed. Next to tha singing caused by ore heat, is the beat sua tlauipucts caused by the cov cring ot rubber. Close rubber shoes de stroy the life of leather. The practice ot uashloc harness iu warm water and with soap is very damaging.

Shoe leather is generally abused. Persons k cow nothing or euro less" about tho kind of material used than they do about the polish produced. Vitriol blacking is used uutil every particle of tlie orl in tbe leather is destroyed. To remedy this abuse the lear ther should be washed once a month ivith warm water, and when about hnlf drv a coat of oil nnd lallow should be applied, and tho boots set aside for a day or two. This will renew the elasticity nnd life in the leather, and when thus used upper leather w ill seU dom crack or break. Baud leather is not ircnerallv iironerlw used. When oil is applied to beltini? drv. it does not spread uniformly, and does not in corporate itself with the "fibre as wheu part ly dampened with water. The best way to oil a belt is to tnkp it from the pulleys "and immerse it in a warm solution of tallow and oil.

This will (hive the oil and tal low all in, and at tho same lime properly temper tho leather. A Woman Turiskd Man. The La Crosse Democrat tells a wonderful yam, (or the truth of which tho editor vouches with Munchau-sen-like gravity. A Miss Ellen IJurnliam, ho says, married one Powell, a Chicago news paper man, iu 1803, lived with him twoyr-arn and had one child. Suddenly the lady's voice began to change, her penchv checks to spout with whickers, until, at "the age of twenty-one, the attractive young womau was transformed into a good-looking young man, A separation was the natural consequence, and, after a time, the quondam girl vindU caterl her new found sex by marrying one of her former music pupils. As the Democrat puts the case, the former girl is now a man, the former wife is now a husband, the tor mer mother is now a father, the formes young lady tenchor of a young lady is now that young lady's husband. Meekscii adm. The material of which thn truo Meerschaum pipes are made is a mineral found in some parts of Turkey and Greece. Chemically it is a silicate of magnesia and iu composition allied to soap stone. It being very nut, the lancilul name .Meerschaum, foam of the sea, was givcu to it, which has led to the not uncommon idea that it is in some way prepared from sea froth. In its rougn state it looks like a lump of very white clay. It ia easily carved aud worked into shape, after which it is put into boiling wax, ami then polished. Imitations are mado so much like tho true articlo that only at; experienced eye can toll tho diflerence. Smoking tiik Meat. Tho Lcbiuh Vallev Daily News relates a good story of a young darkey in Allentown, who was sent to get something to smoke the meat in his .em ployer s smoke house. 1 he dot key went out and invested the money in cigars, and seated himself in tbe smoke house under the meat, lighted a cigar and pulled away. He had disposed of sixteen cigars in this way before tho blunder was discovered by the family. A couple of neighbors became so inimical that they would not speak to pitch other; but one, having been converted at a camp meeting, on seeing bis former enemy, beld out bis hand, saying, "How d'ye do, Kemp? I am humble enough to shako hands with a log." One "Jeames Flaherty" was brought up before a magistrate for marrying six wives. Tbe magistrate asked bim "how he could be so hardened a villain I" "Please your wor ship," says Jeames, "I was trying to get a good one."
