THE CANNON-BALL TREE. .Something About a Carton Tree and Its Strange Fruit. The cannon-ball treo owes its peculi arity principally to tho modo in which . tho flowers nro borno on long- branches, which grow from nround tho trunk, commencing nt its base and continuing many feet upward. They nro arranged in terminal racemes and fall soon after expanding; tho peduncle, how ever, instead of falling and withering, hardens and enlarges, producing racemes of flowers in succession at its extremity each season. Years afterward tho woody pedicels may still bo seen upon the flowering branches. So nearly does tho arrange ment of the latter resemble a creeping plant growing upon a treo .that it is dif ficult to convinco people to the con trary, and that they bear the flowers of tho tree itself, says tho English Garden er's Chronicle, which describes tho flowers as cup-shaped, red within and yellowish-white without. These llowers measure four Inches across. Tlie largo brown, bail-siinpect fruits, unlilro tho fragrant flowers, emit disgusting odor, rivaled only by tho flowers of tcrmanillo bclerlca. Tho latter, when in flower, scents tho at mosphere of the garden in a way which suggests to tho uninitiated that the sanitary arrangements of tho district aro in a bnd condition. Tho couroup ita forms a largo treo somo fifty to sixty feet in height and bears a dense mass of shining green leaves, becoming de ciduous onco or sometimes twice during the year. Tho leaves on these occa sions fall very rapidly and aro replaced again in a few days by a new set. AN UP-HILL ROAD. The Zlciair Ascent to the Capital of Ven ezuela. There nro few more interesting engi neering achievements than tho little narrow gauge railroad running to Car acas, the capital of Venezuela, from its seaport, La Guayra. Tho distance be tween tho two cities, as the crow flies supposing for tho moment that ho could fly through mountains Is only six miles, but the railway connecting them twenty-threo miles in length, and consequently twists and turns on Itself. Tho road runs in zigzag fashion up tho mountain to an altitude of about flvo thousand feet above its starting point and then descends about fifteen hun dred feet in tho samo manner into tho valley of Caracas. Twenty-two thousand rails were used in laying the track, and of these over eighteen thousand are bent. It is jest ingly said that tho engineer almost died of a broken heart because he could in vent no excuse for bending tho remain ing, four thousand. He did his best, however, and Pearson's Weekly thinks no one who has to ride over tho lino and finds himself shaken at every one of the threo hundred and forty-six sharp twists which the track makes will find it in his heart to condemn the poor man for not making a perfect job. Two pas senger trains pass over tho road daily, leaving La Guayra nt half past eight in tho morning and at half past threo in the afternoon, making the journey in two hours and a half. This is a speed, exclusive of stops, of not quite ten mile? an hour. FOR KILLING A COW. In India They Mnlte the Penalty Fit the Crime Aery Closely. Caste means something in India. A young man of Fyzabod recently killed a calf by accident and had to do pen ance and be an outcast for six months. The Brahmins told him that he could not have committed a greater sin than causing the death of a cow, but taking into consideration that he was an un educated man they would deal very leniently with him. During tho period of excommunication ho was ordered to lead a lifo of mendicancy, and with a ropo round his neck and a piece of the calf's tail on his shoulders he was to perform pilgrimages to different Hin doo shrines. Tho members of his family wero for bidden to supply him with either shelter or food under a penalty of undergoing similar excommunication. Tho nhir recently returned to his villago, but until after tho purification ceremonies ho must livo in a temporary grass thatched houso which has boen sys tematically defiled. He must then be plastered oil over with cow dung, soaked in a sacred stream till he is clean nnd put through various other Interesting performances. INDIAN ETIQUETTE. Curious Tale of ivn Invitation to the ainharnjnh Ownllor. A curious incident was brought to no tice in connection with the roccnt mar riage of tho heir-apparent of theJedh pore state. It appears that, according to tho custom in voguo among native chlofs, a kharlta of invitation to tho royal wedding was orderod to be sent to tho mahnrajah of uwallor. The of ficial who wrote tho khnrita did not know tho modoof addressing the ruling chief of Scindia, nnd, thoreforo, re ferred to old records of tho state, in which the namo of the late grandfather of tho present chief was mentioned. The official copied it word for word and sent it off to Uwalior by a daroga. On tho khnrita being presented to the rnaharajah of Gwallor ho refused to open it, saying ho could not open a khnrita addressed to his grandfather, who died before the mutiny, and asked tho man to take it to his samad threo miles out of Gwallor. None of tho rep resentatives of tho Gwallor state, tho Bombuy Gazetto says, attended the wedding on this account An Unpopular Odor. Travelers who return from a visit to Franco tell their stay-at-home Amer ican friends curious stories of tho peculiar and attractive "odor of Paris," which Is said to greet tho nostrils of the tourist the moment tho train do- positshlm in the capital and which ho misses with regret when ho leaves. I no Parisians themselves, it appears, no not like this odor, for nn enterpris ing nrra recently brought out a now scent called "perfume of tho Btreeta" und found it unsalable. THE SCOURGE IN LIVERPOOL. Bt.amihlp Campanile Tie fine t Take Itiger. from lnf.ct.d PUtrlctfl. London, Sep. 1. Tho Liverpool steam ship companies have refused to take aa passengers any foreigners who come from places infected with cholera. General Piatt, the American Consul at Cork, has notified the agents of the trans Atlantic lines that passengers whose ef fects are not thoroughly purified with sul phur will not be allowed to land in the United States. The companies announce that all bag gage will be subjected to fumigation for six hours. The disinfecting process will be under the inspection of American offi cials. Tho four Russian emigrants who were stricken with cholera just as they were about to depart to the United States were Isolated at Parkhlll hospital. One died last night. The place Is excellently situated, for complete isolation, the grounds about tho hospital being fifteen acres in extent and well guarded against intrusion. The baggage of all emigrants destined for Ameiica. was fumigated lii presence of the American consul and the sanitary officers of Liverpool. The consul having expressed himself satisfied with the disinfection, tho consular seal was aflixeu to the baggage thus treat ed, und this was made a necessary pre liminary before taking the baggage on board. One of the suspected casos of cholera at Islington has proved fatal. The members of tho crew of the steamer Gerona, from Hambbrg, who areslck with supposed cholera, are improving. PANIC-STRICKEN HAMBURG. The Exodus Continue! Sllcht Decrease In Death and New Cnaes. Hambcro, Sep. 1. The air is cooler to-day. Reports to the Board of Health thow the development ol 713 fresh cases and 276 deaths. This is a decrease since yesterday of 07 in the number of cases developed and of A'i in the number of deaths. The people of the city feel no encour acemeut. however, to expect on this ac count tho Immediate abatement of tho disease. So many hopes have been raised by official announcements in the last week, only to be shattered within the next 24 hours, that public confidence is entire ly gone. The panic seems to have taken -complete possession of the city. Everybody who can is leaving or preparing to leave. Soveral keepers of the largest hotels con template closing their houses should the plague be at its present height on Satur day. Shops are dosing by tho score, either because cholera has appeared among tho employes, or because the pro prietors have feared to remain in town to conduct their buBiuess. JIo accurate estimate of the numbers leaving the city daily Is to to be had, but they are now well up in tho thousands. Railways running to Loubeck, Rostock and other seaside towns are crowded at all hours, although extra cars have been attached to all of them. MAY STOP IMMIGRATION. FoKstbly the Government Will Take the Initiative. New York, Sep. 1. It is now-likely that other steamship companies will fol low the example of the Hamburg-American Pocket Company and cease carrying im migrants to this port until all danger is passed. This subject was discussed In downtown steamship circles yesterday, and will probably bear fruit. It was sucgosted elsewhere that the United States Government should de mand of all steamship companies, in case the latter fail to take tho initiative, that they Btop all immigration traffic for a time. Several agents were interviewed on this point yesterday, but refrained from giv ing their opinions, and said that a con ference of steamship men would probably he called to consider the question. Editor and Hepurtern Arrested. QuAnANTiNrj,N.YSep. 1. Mr.Goddard, the city editor of tho "World," and four of his stall of reporters ou tho towboat J, W. Husted attempted to visit the steamer Moravia in tho lower bay last evening.

ELOPED WITH THE STUDENT. Sensation In New Itrutuwlck, N. J. tioclal Circles. New Brunswick, N. J., Sop. 1. Tho elopement of William II. Jlooro, a young student studying mudicliua with Dr. C. il.

Moore outcred Dr. Slack's ofUco two years ago, and soon became fust frieiuls with Miss Hettie, who is a hniidsouie girl of 17. The attachment ripened iuto lovo bo fore the purents were aware of it. In spite of parental protost the young couple's love increased. 'iwo nitfhts ago they drove to South Amboy, and from thero wout to Newark by train. Here they were unable to find a minister who would consent to marry them, so they proceeded to New York, where, it is said, the knot was tied by a sympathizing clergyman. The parents are grieved over the action of their daughter, but do not intend to exert themselves to securu tbu return of tho couple, whose present whereabouts are a mystery.
