The Ka-Klnx Report.

R'0re*ntatiTe Van Tftirnp however, the only Democratic member of the committee, aeeros to have had a clear und- istHnding of his duties. While he admitted that whinpinw and, in many ewes, even murdera ,ve been committed am"n£ the colored people, he was slow to ackn»w1ede Jljut these outratfes were invariably. aa \a claimed, the pennlty of voting the R^-publictn ticket. The witnesses he ca'v^l to be summoned were from arno^ig ^e most intelligent and respecta-

Vie in the State. lie had judges, lawyers, cx governors, and educated men of all political sentiments before him. These witnesses were urmnimouq in the belief that Ku-KluxUm in South Carolina is the natural result of the infamous and scandalous rule to which the State has been subjected since her reconstruction.

In the semi official report of Senator Scott and Mr Stevenson it is stated that in every case the colored victims of the outrage were forced to forswear Republicanism and as an evidence of this, attention is called to a copy of a newspaper containing forty-two cards signed by colored men renouncing their allegiance to the Republican party. These cards, the committee any, are procured by threats and intimidation. This may be so, but we verv much doubt it. No class of people in 8 uth Carolina appreciate more fully the rasc:»ily character of their carpet big leaders than do the colored voters. They h''.vc been maae the tools of these men •'whom their votes have foisted into power, an 1 they are fully conscious of the fact.

Hundreds of them have been heard to acknowledge it in Columbia and Charleston. with not a Ku Klijx band within a hundred miles. About the middle of Mirch last nn indignation meeting of colored citizens was held at the Court House in York County. There were about three hundred present, and the meeting was a voluntary gathering. No hostile whites were present at all. A series of resolu tions was passed denouncing the corrup tion that existed in Columbia, and protesting against the infamous measures of the legislature, by which taxation was increased fourfold for the coming year The final resolution was one cdling upon the representatives from York County to r'.'Kigit their seats in the Legislature. "Surely, this expression of opinion was not the result of terrorism! And yet York X'.County is described by the sub committee as the most turbulent in the State, and •••••one in which more outrages have taken pheo than in any other It isone of those which the President will be recommend cd to put. under martial law.—N.

A Difference ami the Cause or It*

IT is worthy of note that the Southern States iu which the most tranquil condition prevails, and in which society if least disturbed by bitter political disp -tea are Vir»ini\ Tennessee and Alab ima—all I^niocraric States. We might add to the number the Sate of Georgia, torn with dissensions and nlllicted with inccssent disorders, a year ago, when the govern-•--miint was Radical, and the people continually haraa-ed by military arrests and 'jintimidati n, but subsiding into quiet as soon as Gov. Bullock nvowed himself an advocate of 8tate rights, and the adjournment of the legislature practically ended the rule of Radicalism. There is now scarcely a Ridical party in existence in

Georgia, and the result is peace while that pitr»y ruled in the name of a minority, there was iucessant discord. Virginia, Tennessee and Alabama are all under Democratic rule or, to state the case ••"more accurately, are under the control of their people, instead of being ruled by a minority upheld by outside power. The result is, the people, if not prosperous, are contented and quiet society is no longer disturbed by the struggles between «n oppressing minority and an oppressed majority the whiles and blacks have ceased to regard each other with the bitter hostility which it was the constant aim of

Radicalism to foster the colored people are more str ctly and flectuady protected ill their rights than when Radicalism was in power and the "whites, no longer irritated by the clumsy opposition of the ignorant ex-slaves, treat the latter vkh more kindness and good will than they could do when the ex-slaves were made .•the instruments of their oppression. In \irginia the Democra'ic and conservative press are urging that in the next election the colored vote, 90,0 .0 strong, be fairly solicited, and an effort made to detach the bti'l of ii forever from the carpet-bag party. nat is the explanation of ail this?

Why is Virginia peaceful, while Nortt Carolina is disturbed and unquiet? Why are allairs in Tenneesseo prosy aiyu uninteresting to outsiders, while Arkansas tosses to and fro like a sick, man* Why has Alabama emerged f-.0m Its troubles, wlnle to\ith Carolina j8 alllicted almost iMond enduianc^y

An Indian Juggler.

WHILE the tom-tom was beating and tha pipe playing, the juggler singing all the time in low accents, tmoothed a place in the gravel three or four yards before us. Having thus prepared abed for the plant to grow in, he. took a basket and placed it over the prepared place, covering it with a thin blanket The man himself did not wear a thread of clothing, except a strip around his loins. The time seemed now to have come for the detective's eye! So just as he was becoming more earnest in his song, and while the tom-tom beat and the pipes shrilled more loudly, I stepped forward with becoming dignity, and begged him to bring the basket and its cover over to me. He cheerftilly complied, and I carefully examined tike basket, which

was made of open wicker-work. I then examined, the cloth covering, which was thin,, almost transparent, and certainly had nothing concealed in it. I then fixed my eye* upon his strip of clothing with such intensity that it was not possible it could have been touched without discovery, and bade him go on, feeling sure that the trick could not succeed. Sitting down he stretched his naked arms under the basket, singing and smtKnrits he did soj then lifted the basket off the ground, ana behold, a green plant about & foot high! Satisfied with our Applause* he went on with hig incantations. After having sat a little to give his plant time to grow, h« again lifted the basket and the plaflt was now two feet high. He asked us to wait a little logger that we might ta3te the fruit! But on being assured, by those who had seen the trick performed before, that the result would be obtainfd, I confessed myself "done," without the slightest notion of the how. I examined the ground and found it was smooth and unturned. Apparently delighted with my surprise the juggler stood up laughing, when one of his companions chucked a pebble to him, which he put into his mouth. Immediately the same companion, walking backwards, drew forth a cord of silk, twenty yards or so in length after which the juggler, with his hands behind his back, threw forth from his mouth two decanter stoppers, two shells, a spinning top, a stone and several other things, followed by a long jet of fire!

Grant Cannot be Re-elccted.

ACCORDING to the present apportionment, the number of Presidential E'ectors is 317, a majority of which is 159. Under the new census, Congress may alter the number of Electors, but a careful calculation shows that the change will not materially affect the prospects of parties in the campaign of 1872.

Assuming 317 as the number, can Gen. Grant get a majority of the electoral votes? if lie is renominated, and the Democrats pres'-nt a popular candidate on a platform which ignores dead issues, the latter will be reasonably certain to carry the following States Alabama ArKanw California Connecticut lawaro orida Georgia I diana Kcnmclty Maryland

Mow a Woman Keeps a Secret.

It is an old quib upon women that a woman cannot keep secrets but the fact is they are the only part of humanity that can A wife keeps a husband's secret incomparably better than he does her's. We calculate that there is one drunken wife to about four hundred and ninety-nine drunken husbands. In gambling, liecintiousness, lying, cheating, hypocrisy, covetousness, there is pretty near the same proportion. Yet of the four hundred and ninety-nine wives, four hundred conceal, cover up, silently endure the terrible secret while the one husband mourns over his wife's frailty in the study of his pastor, and to the ear of his friend, and prob.ibly complains of it to a court, of law. It is the same between brother and sister. The secrets a woman talks about are of the kind that are unimportant and most agreeable to hear. Rut of serious secrets she is as reticent as the grave. That is our observation, and in our various relations of ph eician, lawyer, and unordained minister, we have had opportunities for a great deal of observation.—Baltimore Church Advocate.

PLASTER.—Chicken-houaes and hogpens, as will as stables and m&hure-piles, should be kept sprinkled daily with plaster. A few haiiufuls will absorb the ammonia whic'a escapes from the fenaentifcg manure, and will keep everything sweet. An atmosDhere poisoned by the pungent odors which arise from unclean stables cannot be wholesome and must be provofca' ve of disease. Inflammation of the eyes is a common consequence of foul stables, but if the owner will cleanse them, plaster will remove all the smell.—Hearth and Home.

SBASOIILTNG WOOD.—A writer in an English journal informs us that small pieces of non-resinous wood can be seasoned perfectly by boiling four or five hours—the process taking the sap out of the wood, which shrinks nearly onetenth in the operation. The same writer states that trees felled in full leaf in June or July, and allowed to lie until every leaf has fallen, will then be nearly dry, as the leaves will not drop of themselves until they have have drawn up and exhausted all the eap of the tree. The time required is from a month to six weeks.

ARTIFCIAL WANTS.—Bulwer says that poverty is only an idea, in nine cases out of ten. Some men with ten thousand dollars a year suffer more for want of means than others with three hundred. The reason is, the richer man has artificial wants. His income is ten thousand dollars, and he suffers enough from being dunned for unpaid debts to kill a sensitive man. A man who earns a dollar a day, and does not run in debt, is by far the happier of the two. Very few people who have never been rich will believe this but it is tiue. There are thousands and thousands with a princely income who never know a moment's peace, because they live above their means. There is really more happiness in the world among working people than with those who are called rich.

Will any well-informed Republican contend that the foregoing is not a fair exhibit of Grant's prospects for a re-election, if his Democratic opponent is of the charac ter we have indicated Could he possibly obtain more than 104 votes, or 55 short of majority Therc is only one element of doubt in this calculation. If a small body of Southern malcontents, under the lead of Alix&ndcr II Stephens, should nominate a third candidate, and the Republi cans should present an_ unbroken front, this might hazard the success of the Democracy in three or four of the Southern States. But the probabilities that this course will be ultimately pursued by Stephens and his small clique diminish day by day. Should there, however, be such a bolt, it would almost inevitably lead to a bolt in the Republican party, and the nomination of an independent Republican, thus placing four candidates in the field.—H.

SETTING MILK IN LARGE PANS.— In February, 1864, in company with the landlord of the Hotel Dolen, city of Amsterdam, Holland, I visited the dairy, four miles from the city, which supplied the hottl with cream, butter, cream cheese, whey, etc. The pans were great crocks, three feet high, twenty inches in diarre ttr, perfectly round, straight down from top to bottom, which was flat grey stone ware, a half-inch hole in the side even with the bottom, stopped with a cork wound with fine linen thread, never used but once, through which hole was drawn the skim-milk, to be made into "yeoukle" cheese, leaving the cream to be emptied direct into the churn. This was the same system pursued at my grandfather's forty years ago, when I was a boy, and the teams went away to Philadelphia loaded down from the diary and poultry yard.— Cor. Country Gen.tlerman.

An Anecdote of Talma.

TALMA, the celebrated French tragedian, possessed a country seat in Brunoy —a village in the neighborhood of Paris, where he spent his leasure time. One evening, while walking in the surrounding country, it suddenly occurred to him, that it would be better to go immediately to Paris, and stay over night there, as he had much to do on the morrow, and on the following evening was to play "Orest." While occupied with this thought, he perceived the sound of an approaching carriage. The ringing of bells on the horses announced one of those modest conveyances which preceded the invention of the railroad. It was a so-called kukuk which, having set down it passenger on the way, was returning empty to Montgeron, also a village near Paris. "Will you take me to Paris?" asked Talma of the driver.

That depends upon^circumstance." "I understand it depends upon how much I will pay you. Well name your price."

This was satisfactory and Talma seated himself in the kukuk, which he had the pleasure of occupying alone. To relieve the tediousness of the journey, he commenced, in a loud tone, to recite his role for the next evening. The driver started, although the rattling of wheels and the jingling of bells prevented his quite understanding what his passenger was talking about. Finally he distinguished the words—

With blood will I pollute the feast to which you call me!" What will you do cried he driver, turning suddenly around.

Talma took no notice of the interruption but continued liis recitation while, by the glare of his lantern, the driver watched with fear and astonishment the distorted features, and the melancholy fire which gleamed from the eyes of the tragedian, who, unconscious of his surroundings, was wholly absorbed in his role. All that he said waa calculated to inspire terror.

Open, O earth!" he cried and then continued, Ignominious tool of wrath, banished from my country for the murder of my father, an outcast from the world for the murder of my mother, an object of abhorrence to all who approach me I have lost all,—all that I held dear on earth I"

What a shameless fellow murmured the driver, as he heard the first words of the frightful confession. But it isn't possible that he can have committed all these crimes he added for, if he had, he wouldn't proclaim it upon the highway. He is more likely a lunatic, who has escaped from the insane asylum."

Meanwhile the tragedian continued liis monologue. O sun! that illuminated that day of terror, thou hidest not thy face, but shine st ever I" "Worse and worse Now he sees the sun set at ten in the evening, and even the moon isn't in sight! Now I know my duty. Fortunately I shall only have to go little round-about way to carry him where, without doubt, he belongs." At

Ju«t tell Johnny that his Julia sent him the picture, and he will know itall." The police official was puzzled tos know wnat to do about the matter.

But," said Talma, looking out of the carriage, we are in Charenton! You are a fool!"

Ah, so! I am a fool! Yes, dear sir— yes!-' With this he knocked at the house door, and, when the porter appeared, said to him," You have probably missed one of your inmates whom I found on the highway. not far from here."

No one is missing that I know of," answered the porter. Just then the superintendent came out of the yard. The driver turned to him with, It is surely one of the occupants of your house that I have here. You will immediately rr cognize him. In his insanity he thinks himself a great criminal says he has murdered his father and his mother,

An Enoch Arden Case in Missouri.

THE assertion that "truth is stranger than fiction" is certainly illustrated in the following sketch, and we are indebted to J. C. Ryan, the agreeable first clerk of the steamer St Luke, for the principal items:

During the first year of tbe tfair J. M. Waldrup left hi| pleft^t home in Central Missouri »nti tiiouldered his musket to fight for what he considered right, and to spill his blood, if necessary, in defense of the Confederate At home he left a young wife aha one child, and from that titii'e till last Sunday they never even heard from him.

Mr. Waldrup passed through the struggle safely, and was paroled in St Louis in 1865. So soon as he could earn money enough he started to find his wife and child he visited his old home, and called on his neighbors. But his search was unsuccessful. The only information he received was that his wife had taken the child and gone to live with some relatives in Calloway County.

Visiting Calloway County, he obtained work on a.farm, and settled down to ponder over the whereabous of his wife and child, and to earn money enough to continue the search.

In the meantime Mrs. Waldrup had heird that her husband was dead, and had gone to live with some relation near Cedar City, opposite Jefferson City, Missouri. Here she became acquainted with a well-to-do blacksmith, whose name we have not learned. In due time they were married, and last week were living in their comfortable home at Cedar City, and Mrs. Waldrup had blessed the blacksmith with three fine children, the eldest five years old.

Last Saturday Mr. Waldrup rode laisure.'y into Cedar City, and, halting at the blacksmith shop, requested that worthy to shoe his horse. While conversing on the heat of the weather, crops, etc, the blacksmith learned Waldrup's story, and having heard his wife tell about her lost husband, surmised the truth, and, in his blunt honesty, invited Mr. Waldrup over to the house with him. The recognition was mutual, and the wife fainted in her first husband's arms. After the first agitation, Mr. Waldrup went back to the blacksmith shop, and the men talked the mat ter over sensibly and coolly, and agreed to allow the woman to decide as to which man she would cling.

After pondering the matter over in her own mind, the doubly-mated lady decided to go with her first husband, on condition that the second allow her to take the children. By some process of reasoning, inexplicable to us, he decided to give up his wife and children, and Mr. and Mrs. Waldrup decided to come to St. Louis.

Yesterday the St Luke stopped at the landing, and Mr. W. came on board and engaged passage for himself and three children, and the blacksmith assisted his wife on board, and then brought on the children. Then came an affecting scene, that brought tears to the eyes of the captain, clerks and passengers. The deserted husband first took one child and then the other in his arms and kissed them passionately, while the tears rolled down his cheeks. Then he bade goodbye to his wife, who seemed deeply affected, and lastly to Mr. Waldrup. The two men gazed into each other's faces, shook hands long and earnestly, and then the blacksmith, by a strong eff rt of will, released the hand of Mr. Waldrup, and walked quietly ashore, never turning his face toward the boat, which soon passed out of sight. We can only imagine the loneliness in that poor man's heart and home as he reached the room where ho had so often eat with his wit'e and children.—St. Louis Dispatch.

Lime a Renovator of Soils.

The constant use of special manure tends to make the land what is called "sick." Thus we hear of land being cloversick of land that has been manured with superphosphate, guano, or fish, as being burnt, and no longer yielding to the application of more manure. Barnyard manure is not yet in sufficient supply to have produced the same effect or given rise to a similar complaint, but even when this has been applied in large quantities to the soil, it will be found that something is needed to remedy the lodging of crops for want of stiffness in the stalk or straw. Lime is a remedy in all these cases. When the soil is filled with vegetable matter lime rapidly decomposes it, and not only is it a solvent for this, but for many mineral matters that plants need for food. A lime stone soil is as much improved by lime as any other land, and needs it equally at stated periods for limestone is not lime in the sense in which agriculturists use the word, and it cannot fill the office of lime until it has been fitted therefor by the op eration of the kiln.—Hearth and Home.

Something on Lawns.

Occasionally I read advice that to recuperate and enrich the grass and soil of a lawn, well-rotted animal manure should be liberally spread over it and well raked. An experience of many years in making, seeding and renewing lawns, causes me, whenever I read such advice, to wonder if the adviser expects the Chinaman to work on his lawn the coming season, steadily, and at low wages, pulling out weeds and coarse grasses. I care not how well rotted the animal manure, I never yet saw it applied without weeds following, and coarse grasses. I never use animal manures in the making of a lawn if I can possibly avoid it, preferring the same amount of decomposed turf or fresh loam to add to what may be a too inferior soil to carry forward the fine grasses of a lawn.

In renewing a lawn, I much prefer to scatter half an inch to an inch of fine rot ted turf loam, then, after raking, sow bone meal three-fifths, plaster one-fifih, and salt one-fifth, adding to each acre of old lawn two bushels ot Kentucky blue grass and one bushel of creeping bent grass. The cost of this is as nothing, compared with the labor and annoyance of having to weed continually after an ap plication of barn-yard manure and the beauty of a lawn so improved needs to be seen only once in order to make the stupidest and most obstinate old fogy acknowledge its superiority.—Cor. Rural New Yorker.

Management of Horses.

Feed liberally, work steadily, and clean thoroughly, is my motto in the management of horses. My great trouble is to get the horse rubbed dry and clean before leaving them for the night Where horses are worked six days in the wees:, thorough grooming is absolutely essential to their health. The more highly they are fed the more important it is to clean them. Most men use the currycomb too much, and the whisk and brush too little. I do not myself insist upon it, but I believe it would pay always to take the whole harness from the horses when put in the stables at noon, and rub them dry, washing thv shoulders with cold water, afterwards thoroughly drying them with a cloth. Every man and team on the farm cost me at least $750 a year and I question if one fanner in a hundred duly appreciates how much he loses from having poor horses, and in not keeping them in vigorous health, and in condition to do a rdaxium days work.—American Agriculturist.

The History of the P*eh«

Tafe peach to sttpprised to be a native of Persia, and Ua botanical name refers to that origin. It is known to have flourished in both Persia and China at a very early period, and was highly valued in both countries. It has often been found gtbwing spontaneously in Asiatic Tiirkey. It is mentioned b^ Pliny, and several other classical writers, and many anecdotes are related of the veneration and even superstition with which it was wgarfeS by the Asiatics. Tfcet« ii no doubt b*»tit was one of the Trees of the Garden which God $ta&ted in Eden, and which were to nourish and cheer our first parents in their pristine purity and happiness. It is not mentioned in^the Bible, Dut its congener, the almond, is mentioned several times, and as early as the days of Jacob. And we find, when he was preparing his present for the Governor of Egypt, he commanded his eons to take myrrh, nuts, and almonds as a gift, showing the esteem which it was then held. Again, in the directions for making the golden candlestick, among the omalh'ents, the myrtle &ad. aimo^A, are mentioned as of the chief.

The .peach, like civilization itself, traveled from this center westward into Europe, and w« find it inentioned in Reman history in the reign of the Emperor Claudius. It was highly valut by the patriciahs of Rome, and was cultivated by them as one ot their choicest luxuries. It is still a standard tree in Italy.

It was introduced into England from Italy, about the middle of the sixteenth century, and has been cultivated there as an exotic ever since. Her cool, moist climate, however, prevents its general cultivation, and it is only grown on walls or under glass, and the fruit is seldom seen except on the tables of the aristocracy.

Even in France, where the climate is much milder, it is not always reared without protection, and the fruit has never gone into general use, but is a delicacy confined to the wealthy alone, the cultivation being confined principally to gardens.

In China it is extensively cultivated in the gardens of the rich, and has attained an extraordinary size. But of their manner of propogation and culture but little is yet known, owing to the exclusive poli cy heretofore pursued by that ancient empire. Now, since its amelioration, among the many other benefits hoped for, a more accurate and complete knowledge of the peach is one. The Chinese are great gardeners, and much affect the curious in horticultural as in other arts, and we may expect to learn much that is interesting, if not useful. We know already that they produce peaches of very large size, and two, at least, of rare thape—the Chinese Flat, and Crooked Peach. With this beginning, we will not be surprised at still more curious developments. The curi osity, ingenuity, and enterprise of our countrymen will soon discover whatever may be known.

It is to our credit that the United States is the only country in the world that, either in ancient or modern times, has pro duced peaches in sufficient quantities to allow them to become a common marketa ble commodity so cheap, that the poor, as well as the rich, may regale themselves and their families with one of the most wholesome and delicious of fiuits at a very small expense, and with every prospect that they will still be more abundant and chean—Peach Culture.

To Dry and Cook Corn.

To dry corn for winter use is not always an easy matter when done in the or dinary way but it is so good a dish when properly cooked, and comes in such good play during the winter and spring months when the good housewife is often puzzled what to cook, that all should have a supply and for those who have no better fixtures for drying, I would recommend the hotbed. Place the parboiled corn, cut from the cobs, on boards, or sheets in the hot bed, or other frame, and put on the sash, raising them a couple of inches at each end, the sun shining in will make it so hot that the corn will dry perfectly in one dny and the heat will be so great that not a fly will go near it, and should a shower come up it will be quite safe where it is, and ready to take advantage of the first bit ol sunshine when properly dried it will last for years. To cook it, my wife says, pui it in a tin or other vessel with a lid, pour on enough hot water to cover well, set on the stove where it will remain near the boiling point, but should not boil leave on three or four hours, then take half cup of cream, into which stir a teaspoonful ol flour, and pour into the dish with corn, or instead of the cream use milk, and add a small piece of butter season with a tea spoonful of flour and a little salt, set on the stove half an hour longer and it is done.—Exchange.

The Sore Htad iu Poultry.

A correspondent in an exchange gives the following remedy for the above disease which he states has never failed him .-

In the absence of abetter cognomen, I have called the disease the swell head. The first symptoms are a watery and frothy collection of matter in the eye, often accompanied by warts or sores on the head. If not attended to, the formation of a white tough matter begins inside of the eyelid, and always below tho eye, accompanied by considerable inflammation. The swelling increases rapidly, frequently extending to the inside of the throat, which becomes ulcerated. The fowl becomes blind in one or both eyes— as the disease sometimes attacks only one eye at a time—and death ensues. The disease is highly contagious, and frequently sweeps the poultry-yard if not arrested. I have never failed to cure a case even when the fowl's eyes were completely shut from the swelling. The frothy matter first collects in the front or outer corner of the eye, then to some extent impairing the vision, which will be perceived by the fowl striving often to wipe it away on its feathers.

Poultry thus affected should at once be placed in a coop by themselves. Make a strong brine in an old cup, or some other suitable vessel, and wash the head at least twice a day, using a soft' rag. Suffer the brine to go into the eye, as it seems to arrest the formation of the hard, taugh matter alluded to. It sometimes occurs tbat this formation has already taken place before the disease is discovered. In such cases I sharpen a piece of chip, and by carefully inserting it between the eye and the lid remove it entirely. If not removed by an operation, though the eye become cured, there will always be an unsightly protuberance. "If the head and gills have warts on them, the scab should be removed by the finger nail, or by a pocket knife, previous to the washing. I do not remember ever losing but one case under this treatment, though I have often had to feed them byhand for two or three days, on account ol blindness from swelling and this case was so far gone when I look it in hand that ulcers had formed in the windpipe. In addition to the above treatment, the nostrils must be kept free of matter by pressing with a rag outward along the beak."

Ealing Green Corn.

LAST autumn persons who wished to observe the proprieties," inquired of Us whether it was according to good usage to gnaw the corn from the cob, or if it should be cut into the plate. Generally, though not always, matters of table etiquette are founded in common sense. A bird can only be properly enjoyed by picking it, hence good usage sanctions the use of the fingers in removing the flesh from the bones of a bird, while one who should take the bone of a beefsteak, or a muttonchop, in his fingers, would be looked upon as ill-bred. The only way to get the full satisfaction out of green corn is to gnaw it from the cob, and though the operation, especially to a foreigner who knows not corn, is not an elegant one to witness, it is performed at the best-ordered tables. So generally is it conceded that corn should be eaten from the cob, that silversmiths now make silver green-coro handles these are thrust into the large end of the cob, and allow it to be held without soiling the fingers. It is rather an awkward matter to cut the corn from the ear at table, especially if the knives are not Bharp. If it is to be eaten in this way, it should be prepared before it is sent to the table. TTie operation of eating from the cob is much facilitated by drawing a

sharp knife lengthwise of each row, in such a manner that the hull of each kernel will be split. When this is done, the digestible, nutritious contents of the kernels will slip out, and the often tough hull be left U|on the cob. Those whose teeth are sensitive off defective Will tfifid this a great help.—American Agriculturist.

INHERITED DISEASES.—The Dumber of transmissible complaints Is larger than is generally supposed. Not only scrofula and consumption, but rheumatism, gout, liver complaint, constipation, cerebral affections, and probably dyspepsia, are inheritable. Fortunately, however, these terrible heirlooms may be got rid of. Cut off the tn'ail with Dn. WALKER'S VINEGAR BITTEKSTliis powerful Vege able Alterative and Invigorant, is also a blood depurent.

l?iiieu*«css and Indigestion. These two complaints are more general at this season of the year than at almost, any other. They are cliisclv akin for biliousness always involves an impaired digestion, and indigestion is necessarily an accompanimeut, of a disordered or torpid liver. Happy the man or woman who can boast of a stomach that has never felt the horrors of dys pepsia. and to whom that great secretive agent, the liver, has never given pain or trouble. Not one in a thousand can lay claim to entire immunity from irregularity in these organs. IIow, then, shall they be regulated? Not by powerful cathar tics, alternated with ordinary stimulants, but by a modical invigorant, like Hostetter's Stomach Bit ters, which combine in due proportion the tonic aDd the alterative principle. Wherever there is a church, a school-house, and a general store, t.hif famous medicine may be procured. No village merchant finds it. prudent to be without it, for it is inquired for every day by every CIKSS. The work ingman buys it because it increases his capacity for toil, and is followed by no reaction. The elll-ct ol the salubrious roots, herbs, etc of which it. is composed, diffused through his system by the pure stimulant which forms the basis of the Bitters, is most healthful and invigorating. The scholar, the merchant, and, in fact, ail men whose minds or bodies, or both, are in constant exercise, will derive benefit from its use. To persons of seden tary habits it supplies, in some measure, thatac tivity in the circulation which is obtained byphysi cat exertion, and is the best known remedy for con stination.

Ask for Hostetter's Stomach Bitters, and do not be coaxed into purchasing any of the imitations and frauds sometimes offered iii its stead.

friend of ours, who hail

from one of the upper districts of louth Carolina, called at the Pick otlice, and among other novelties, he mentioned Wolfe's Aromatic Scliieda .Schnapps," and stated as a fact, that in his section of the country, nearly all of the physicians, in certain cases, when they deemed ardent spirits neces sary to prolong or save life, invariably used these •'Schnapps," justly regarding it as the only spirit? that could be pr cured pure and unadulterated, lie also stated that this medicine or "s'chnapps' was becoming the only beverage sold on the rreat stage or railroad routes He says those physicians who have used and analyzed it. sta'e that for diseases such as gravel, gout, rheumatism, &c., it is ncomparable.
