certain superstition, rites practiced by the
negroes of New Orleans, known as the Voudon
Mysteries. These thystevira nil a part of the
fetish worship of tbe, Native Africans, and are
?raided over by old negro women, called 'Ven
dee queens, who exercise a most unbounded,
influence over their votaries. The Voudon de
votees are all women, and think they can ao
'Delphi& almost any object, by engaging in
these mysteries. Last summer, a number of
Degrees, almost naked, assembled at the house
of one of the Vanden queens, were arrested by
the provost guard of New Orleans, and after
trial, dismissed. The whole matter attracted
teneiderable attention at the time, and caused
much indignation against the Voudon queens.
Nothing criminal, however, was ever proven
against them. A few days ago, the excitement
against these people broke out afresh in New
Orleans. A human body, sawed completely in
two, from the coronal suture to the last verte
brie of the spinal column, had been found—or
at least, one half of It—near a house supposed
to have been set apart for Voudon orgies, and
a fear, not unmixed with wonder, grew and
multiplied. Of what strange deed of horrid
murder and merciless mutilation was that poor
fragment of humanity a witness. and a sign ?
Some thought that the remains were those of
an intruder, who, uninvited, had ventured to
look upon the terrible secrets of a Voudon ter
pie, and who was murdered by the priestesses
of the Fetish superstition, in order that the
story might not be carried forth. The sup
posed Voudon were all arrested, and the Coro
ner sent for, who looked upon the remains tied
pronounced them anatomical specimens from
the repertory of some curious medical student
—the evidence of scientific inquiry, rather
than the sign of hellish deeds. But the ques
tion arose: " How,mune such remains in the
possessizm of an old negro woman ?" The old
woman's story was, that she bought them for
a dime from a boy who found them where the
contents of an old doctor's shop had been cast
into the street ; that she had kept the mai
mied moiety out of curiosity for..a long time,
and at length had placed it in her yard, where
it had been disturbed by some prowling wan
dearer of the canine tribes and carried out into
the street. So the Voudon were again set at
liberty ; bat many of the good citizens of New
Orleans still euppotte that the old Venden had
procured this body, to render more pawerfal
and awful the spell by which she binds her
blind bciievere to her interests.—.N. Y. Sun.
WORKING Gnms.—Happy girls—who cannot
love them ? With Cheeks like the rose, bright
eyes and elastic step, how cheerfully they go
to work. Our word for it, such girls will make
excellent wives. Blessed indeed will men be
who secure such prizes. Contrast thoae who
do nothing but, sigh all day and live to follow
the fashions who never earn the bread they
eat or the shoes they wear;who are languid
and lazy from one week's en to another. Who
but a simpieton and a popinjay would prefer
one of the latter, if he were looking for a com
panion ? Give us the working girls. They are
worth their weight in gold. Ton npver see
them mincing along, or jumping a dctzen feet
to steer clear of a spider or a fly. They have
no affectation, no silly airs about them. When
They meet you, they speak without putting on
a half- dozm airs, or trying to show off to bet
ter advantage, and you feel as if you were
talking to a human being, and not to a painted
or fallen
If girls knew how sadly they miss it while
they endeavor to show off their delicate hands
and unsoiled skin, and put on a thousand airs,
they would give worlds for the situation of the
working ladies, who are above them in intelli
gence, in honor, in everything, as the heavens
are above the earth.
AN INCIDENT AND Alf' Sarato
ga. corrspondent of the Boston Pod, in a gossip
ing letter about "What they do at the Springs,"
gives publicity to the following jeu d'esprit :
“It chanced, the other evening, at one of the
great hotels, that a gentleman, seeking in vain
for a candle with which to light himself to his
room at a late hoar, passed a young lady who
had two candles, of which she politely offered
him, one. He took it and thanked her; and the
next morning acknowledged the courtesy in
the following epigram. Luckily for the poet
(for his epigram would have been pointless),
the young lady was as handsome as she was
polite:
leo gave me a candle: I give von my thanks,
And add—as a compliment justl3r your due—
There isn't a girl in these feminine ranks,
Who amid—if site tried—hold a candle to you
PACIFIC MmusTa.—A San Francisco paper of
September 11th says :-="The receipts of trea
sure from the mining districts EtitiCe,the first in-,
staut,amount to sl,soo;ooo—about $lOO,OOO in
coin. Nearly one-third of this amount came
liom the North Coast mines in Oregon, 'Wash
ington Territory, Idahoe and Cariboo. The
latter are tarnisg ont large sums ; about $200,-
000 from thence was deposited in the Aranch
Mint in this city, a few days - since, by three
miners, and had been taken out of their claims
in a surprisingly short period-108 pounds in
a single day. The deposits at the Mint during
the period under review have been ' about
s7so,ooo—more than three-quarters of the
amount within three days after the arrival Of
the North Coast steamer. A very large por
tion of the receipts from that direction come
in the hands of passengers."
POPULATION OF THZ EARTH...--A Professor of
the University of Berlin has recently published
the result of his researches as to the popula
tion of the earth, according to which, Europe
contains 272 millions ; Asia, 720 millions ; Af
rica, 80 millions'; America. 200 millions ; and
Polynesia, 2 million; mating a grand total of
1;283 millions of inhabitants. As in places
where deaths are accurately registered the an
nual mortality is at least 1 in 40, the 'number
of deaths must be about 82 millions every year,
which gives 87,761 per day, 3,653 per hour,
and 61 per minute, so that every second wit
nesses the extinetion of one human life, Ano
ther calculator states that 'the number of per
sions who have lived on the earth since the
creation is 06,627,843,275,075,855
SINGING is a great institution. It oils the
wheels of care—supplies the place of sunshine.
A man- who sings has a good heart under hie
shirt front. Suck a Man not only works more
willingly, but he works more constantly. A
singing cobbler will earn twice as Much money
as a cobbler who gives way to low spirits and
indigestion. Avarioious men never sing. The
man who attacks singing throws a stone at the
head of hilarity, and would, if he could;rOb
June of its roses, or August of its meadow
larks.
New discoveries are constantly being made
in the exhumed city of Pompeii. A house has
been lately found where the dining room is
'paved with trissaic. The completely served
table is covered With petrified remnants of
dishes ; a - ad around it are found three divans,
.
% or table-beds, of bronze, adorned with, gold
and silver, upon which reposed several skele
tons. A great many precious jewels were
found near them. On the table stood, among
taker ornaments, a very beautiful worked
'Statue of Bacchus in silver, with eyes of ena
mel, S co llar of jewels, and precious armlets.
BATTLE FIELD NOEENCL&TURE.—Chattanooga
is the Cherokee for - hawk's nest or eagle's nest.
The town'wao originally the headquarters of
John Ross, the Cherokee chief. It received its
mane from its location, being surrounded on all
sides by mounts*, the poetic vision of the red
man seeing in it an an exact resemblance to a
hawk's nest. Roseville, to which our army
fell back after the second day's fight, was
towed in honor of John Ross..

'was asked of an emiaest-Man. he antiwar
was a striking example of simple justice: 4 •I

large to be disposed of in a minute. An epi
gram is long enough for a sarcasm, but it is
much too abort for a candid opinion. It would

his excellencies."
• On Itarnaintas IN CIAVELAID.—There are
sixteen petroleum refinerite in the vicinity of
Cleveland, in which 103,691 gallons of the re.
fined oil were produced during the mouth of
August last, of which 23,709 gallons were for
exportation. This does not include the heavy
lubricating oil and the bensoin also obtained
from the crude petroleum. There are thirty
nine refining stills in operation in these refi
neries; the petroleum is obtained from the
wells in Pennsylvania, and costs from $6 to $7
per barrel.
A Diramme.---The situation of things along
the Missouri and Kansas State line is graph
ically pictured in two short sentences from the
•Leavenworth Put:din;
"The general order requiring all to leave the
border counties has been carried out.. All
persons found without proper papers are shot
at sight."
And Jennison says he will hang every man
with papers. A hard alternative, the rope or
the bullet.
A New Hampshire paper says those who'
went to Lebanon one day last week, for exam
ination, were shocked to see a white man there;
followed by his young son, whom be was en
deavoring to sell at the highest price as a'sub
stitnte. The man, at kit, after much banter-.
big, sold his boy for $450, and pocketed the
greenbacks with the coolest 'satisfaction, while
the boy dejectedly passed into the Provo's of
,
Ace to,report for service.
A correspondent of a London paper writes :
" I have just returned from Germany after a
month's knocking about. I had glorious
weather, and saw all the little kings - at Frank
fort. There is a good anecdote of one of them
He wanted his army instructed in the use of
the Armstrohg gun, so he got one, but was
obliged to ask leave of the next, king to have
the target put up in his kingdom, his own not
being big enough for the Armstaong range 1"
A NAmow Eschrs.—A woman, supposed to
be dead,. was removed to the hospital of Bli
dah, in Algeria, for the purpose of being sub
jeoted to &post morfem examination, her dis
ease having appeared inexplicable to the medi
cal men who had attended her. As the surgeon
Was about to make use of the .scalpel and com
mence her dissection, the supposed corpse ut
tered a loud shriek and sat up. She had been
in a state of lethargy, and awoke just in time.
A firm of - biscuit manufacturers ixl Carlisle,
England, by way of showing what , cohid be
done by rapid work, recently had , a field of
wheat reaped, the grain thrashed and , grOund,
matte flour made into biscuits, Which
.were
served hot on the breakfast table at 8 o'clock,
in exactly four hours from the time , the sickle
was first put into the standing grain.
ADMINISTRATION. OF teRININE.—Tue bitter
taste of quinine is easily concealed by putting
the powder to be exhibited on a portion of the
white of an egg, and covering it with another
portion. In this manner children, or the most
"spleeny" adults will swallowit readily.—Chi
cago Medical Journal.
A writer from Long Island, S.C., says "Mos
quitoes swarm by millions day and night; red
headed lizards, big spiders, and various nonde 7
script reptiles crawl over us; yesterday a large
mocassin snake tried to find quarters in my
blankets."
President Lincoln is said to look worn and
to show anguish in his ,face—perhaps he has
an unsound tooth.

LYON'S PURE OHIO CATAWBA
BRANDY.
THE OHIO CATAWBA BRANDY has, for loreral
yeare, been manufactured front the pure juice of the
AMERICAN CATAWBA. and ISABELLA GRAPE- and
has attained a rare popularity throughout the West amt
Oonth, where great quantities of this superb article is
sold for MEDICINAL and FAMILY purposes. It nor
only equals, but excels the most choice IMPORTED
BRANDIES in PURITY, QUALITY and RICHNESS OP
'FLAVOR, and wherever it has been introduced it h&,i
invariably met the most unqualified favor and extende4
sale.
The want of really pure Brandy has long been felt in
this country, and the opportunity to procure an article
of such quality as to supercede the sale and use of the
many vile compounds so often sold under the name of
"Brandy," can be regarded only as a public good.
L. LYON'S CATAWBA BRANDY possesses all the
choice qualities of the best imported liquor ' and is posi
tively known to be of PREFECT PURITY and of SU
PERIOR FLAVOR.
In support of the above statement; we refer to the
certificate of the undermentioned well-known chemists :
Dr. A. A. Hayes, Assayer, Boston, Mass.
Dr. James 8.. Chilton & Co., Chemists, New York.
Dr. James B. Nichols, Analytical Chemist, Boston,
Mass.
Dr. J. V. F. Blaney & Dr. G. A. Marring; Analytical
and Consulting Chemists, Chicago, Illinois.
Dr. Cox, Chemist, Cincinnati, Ohio.
Dr. Charles Upham Sheppard, Charleston. S. C.
Messrs. Gentry and Blackwood, Chemists; Tenn.
Dr. N. A. Pratt, Savannah, Georgia.
An of whom hays analyzed the Brandy and recommend
it as a perfectlypure article and as an invaluable medi.
