WHAT Ml LOVER SAID. BY HOBAOX OKXKLXT, IX INX By the merest chance, in the twilight gloom. In the orchard path he met mein the tall, wet grass, with its faint perfume— And I tried to pass, but he made no room; Ob, I tried, but he would not let me; So I stood and blushed till the grass grew red. With my face bent down above It, While ho took my hand, as he whispering said—(How ihe clover lifted each pink, sweet head To listen to all that my lover raid; Oh 1 the clover In bloom—l love it I) In the high, wet grass went the path to hide, Aud the low, wet leaves hung over; But 1 could not paws upon cither side, For I found myself, when I vainly tried. In the anus of my steadfast lover. And he held me there, and he raised my heed While be closed the path before me; And he looked down Into my eyes and said—(How the leaves bent down from the boughs o'erhfatl To listen to all that my lover aaid! Oh 1 the leaves hanging lowly o’er me 1) Had be moved aside a little way I could surely then have passed him; And would not have heard what he bad to my Con'd I only aside have cast him. It war almost dark, and the momenta sped, And the searching nighlwind found ua; But he drew me nearer and softly said — (How the pare, sweet wind grew still instead, To listen to all that my lover said 1 OU! the whispering wind around ua!) 1 am sure be knew, when he held me fast, That I must be all nuwilllng: For I tried to go, sud J would have passed, A* the night was coming with its dew at last, And the sky with stars was filling ; But be clasped me close when I would have fled, And he made me hear his story; And his soul came out from his lips and said—(How the stars crept out where the whits moon led. To listen to all that my lover said I Oh I the moon and the stars In glory 1) 1 know that the grass and the leaves will not toll. And I’m sure the wind—precious sorer— Will carry his secret so safely and well, And that no being will ever discover , One word of the many that rapidly fall From the eager lips of my lover, Bball never reveal what a fairy-llks spell They wove about us that night In the dell, In the path through the dew-laden clover; . Nor echo the whispers that made my heart swell As they fell from the lips of my lover.

SENSATIONS IN HANGING.

There are many instances on record in which the punishment of sub." per col. has failed, either through some peculiarity in the neck of the individual, or a want of tact in the hangman. More than six centuries ago—if old records are true—Juetta de Balsham, convicted of harboring thieves, was sentenced to be executed. She hung for three days, revived, and was pardoned as a phenomenon who had somehow or other overmastered the gallows. There is the authority of Obadiah Walker, master of New College, Oxford, for a story that a Swiss was hanged thirteen times over, every attempt being frustrated by a peculiarity in the wind-pipe whicn prevented strangulation. We are not told whether the thirteenth time was successful, or whether justice was merciful at last. Ann Green was hanged at Oxford for infanticide in 1650; nay, her legs were pulled, and her body struck with soldiers’ muskets, in accordance with a barbarous custom sometimes adopted of making assurance doubly sure. Nevertheless, she survived after hanging some considerable time. Her body was given up for dissection. The surgeon observed faint signs of animation, tended her instead of anatomizing hex, and in thirteen hours she was able to speak. She remembered nothing distinctly of what had occurred, but seemed to herself to have been in a deep sleep. The ciown pardoned her; she married and became the mother of a family, and her husband forgave her the errors of her past life, possibly for a kind of celebrity which the singular episode had brought to her. Other examples of a more or less analogous kind are the following : A woman —name unrecorded—was hanged in

1808. She came to herself after a suspension for the prescribed period, not by slow d grees, but suddenly. John Green experienced an ordeal something like that of Ann Green. After being hanged at Tyburn, his body was taken to Sir William Blizard, a. celebrated surgeon ; and while out on a table in the dissecting room he displayed signs of life and effectually recovered. A female servant of Mrs. Cope, of Oxford, convicted of some penal offense, was executed in 1650. After hanging an unusually long time she was cut down and fell heavily to the ground. The shook revived her, but the unfortunate wretch was effectually hanged the next day. Margaret Dickson, a century and a half ago, was convicted of concealment of birth, and was subjected to the last penalty of the law. Her body, after hanging on the gibbet a t Edinburgh, was out down and given to her friends. They put it in a eoflin, aud drove off with it in a cart six miles to Musselburg. Some apprentices rudely stopped the cart and loosened the lid of the coffin. This let in tire air, and the air and the jolting revived her. She was carried in doors alive, but faint and scarcely conscious : a minister came to pray with her, and she effectually recovered. No mention of collusion occurs in this narative, although some incidents would seem to point that way. Margaret lived many years, and had other children born to her, and was familiarly known in Edinburgh, where she sold salt, as “Haiflianged Maggie.” Instances are known in which a rebound after the fall lias enabled the feet of the victim to touch the platform, and with what ultimate l'esult has to be determined by a conflict between mercy nnd sternness on the part of the authorities. A disgraceful scene took place at Edinburgh in 18'8. The rope with which a man was banged being too loose, his toes touched the platform, the assembled mob got up a riot on some pretext, the half-hanged man was carried off, recapture!, and finally hanged on the following day. A scene of a similar deplorable nature had been witnessed at Jersey a few years previously. A whimsical legend, made the subject of one of Southey’s ballads, relates to a man who was resuscitated after hanging, and disappeared from the gibbet in a mysterious manner. In ninety-one stanzas Southey tells the story of Boprecht. the robber, believed in Germany to have some foundation in fact. Boprecht, who had long been a terror to the inhabitants of Cologne, was at length caught, tried, sentenced and executed. On the next morning, r to the surprise of the early passers by, the gibbet was found to be empty. One week later Bopi’echt was seen hanging there again, but wearing boots and spfirs instead of shoes. What this could all mean was left to Peter Suoye to tell. He and hia son Piet were driving home late on the night after the execution. Passing near the gibbet they heard a low moan. Looking up they found it to proceed from Boprecht. Bobber and rascal though lie might be, they did not like to leave him in such a pitiable state. They cut him down, put him into their cart, and carried him to their home, revived him, and concealed him from the authorities. Whatever virtues Boprecht may have possessed, gratitude was not one of them, for we are told that one morning early, before the family was astir, he took Peter’s horse and Piet’s boots and spurs and absconded. But Frau Suoye, who had some little suspicion of the man, overheard some of his movements and aroused her husband and son. These two mounted spare horses, galloped after him, kept him in sight, overtook him, seized him after a desperate struggle, dragged him to the gibbet and there hanged him most effectually. His own rope was ready there, To measure the length we took good care; Ard the job which the bungling hangman began. This time, I 'hink, was properly done By me"and Piet Peterzoon, my son. Many instances— how many we are never likely to know— have occurred in which the culprit and his friendß made arrangements beforehand to defeat the hangman’s endeavors. M. Yanderkiste in his “ Six Years’ Mission Among the Dens of London,” mentions a woman who was condemned to death for passing forged bank notes. Her friends, with purgical aid, caused a silver tab* to b#

inserted in her throat some short time before the rope was plaoed around her neck. This prevented strangulation. Her friends obtained possession of the body and restored her, though with great difficulty, she lived many years afterward. In 1696, Richard Johnson, of Shrewsbury, sentenced to death for some crime, persuaded the Sheriff to agree that his body, after hanging, should be put in a eoffia without being stripped. The Sheriff may have been kind, bat was certainly weak, for cords had been twisted around and under the body, connected with a pair of hooks at the neck, and all concealed under a doable skirt and flowing periwig. But the cunning was frustrated, despite the weakness of the Sheriff, as Johnson showed signs of life, even after hanging half an hoar. An examination was made, the apparatus discovered, and the man successfully and finally hanged on the following day. Whether any tube was inserted we are not told, bat there was evident collusion in the case of the man hanged at Cork in 1767. His body was carried by his friends to a predetermined spet, where a surgeon made an incision in the windpipe and resuscitated the man in six hoars. Let as hope that the rest of the story is not quite true, to the effect that the fellow went to the theater the same evening. The William Dnell who was hanged in 1740, who came to himself again when just about to be dissected at Surgeon’s Hall, may, like Ann Green, have survived through rome peculiarity in the neck or some clumsiness on the part of the executioner, without any collusion or cunning among his friends. In 1787 a man named Kelly was sentenced to execution at Trim, in Ireland. On the early morning of the day intended to be his last he contrived to cut his blanket into strips about four inches wide, join them together with strong woolen threads aDd form a double sling. This he passed under his arms, fastened the ends at his neck and there provided an iron hook to receive the halter. Thus accoutred he proceeded to the place of execution. It is supposed that he found means to bribe the hangman, to whom he made a request to draw up close to the pully and lower him gently when dead. But the crafty maneuver did not succeed. Kelly had not allowed for the stretching of the strips of blanket by his own weight, the point of the hook fastened into his windpipe and gave him such pain that he struggled violently. He was, however, allowed to hang until he was really dead, when the sling apparatus was discovered. A successful attempt to cheat the gallows once brought an under-sheriff into trouble. William Barrett* executed in Tyrone in 1759, contrived to wear some kmd of a concealed collar, which prevented strangulation ; he was At down apparently dead, but afterward recovered. Mr. Aunsley, under-sheriff, as a punishment for allowing Barrett thus to evade the law, was fined £IOO and imprisoned for two years. In former times the mode in which the dismal operations of the gallows were conducted led occasionally to a frustration of the law’s intention. The unhappy culprit, after the halter was adjusted around his neck, was pushed so as to slip or slide from a ladder. Asphyxia was sometimes produced without any dislocation. Under the modern arrangement a trap door opens in a platform on whiqa the culprit stands, occasioning a sudden and considerable fall, from which recovery is much less probable. This change led to the frustration of a plan that might possibly have been successful under the old system. William Brodie was executed in Edinburgh in 1793. His friends had prearranged for his resuscitation, but the fall of the drop was greater than had been expected, and he was quite dead when taken down. There is an old Sootch saying, “ Brodie’s drap was too much for Brodie,” which, we believe, refers to the case of this William Brodie, for the “ drap ” or drop was too great for the vital organism to resist. A reprieve has sometimes arrived too late to save the poor wretch in whose behalf it had been obtained. More fortunate was a burglar who was hanged in 1705, for the reprieve arrived when life was only half extinct. He was quickly cut down, placed under mefljcal care, <nd restored. A reprieve of another kind from the effects of a foolhardy trick came a little too late. In 1806 a youth aged 17, and named Matthew Watson, resolved to make a small attempt at hanging himself, “to see how it felt.” Se went into a cellar, and succeeded more completely than he had intended, for he was found hanging with life quite extinct. A strange mania this, but the examples to illustrate it are more numerous than most of us would suppose. A question arises which very few living persons are in a position to answer, viz.: What are the sensations experienced during hanging? Some of the few who have been able, to give any account of their consciousness at so critical a moment say that, after one instant of pain, the chief sensation is that of a mass of brilliant colors tilling the eyeballs. The Quarterly Review, volume 35, treating on this matter, says : “An acquaintance of Lord Bacon, who meant to hang himself partially, lost his footing, and was cut down at the last extremity, having nearly paid for his curiosity with his life. Ho declared that he felt no pain, and his only sensations were of fire before his eyes, which changed first to black and then to sky blue. These colors are even a source of pleasure. ” A Oapt. Montagnac, who was executed in France during the religious wars, but was rescued from the gibbet at the intercession of Marshal Turrene, complained that, having lost all pain iu an instant, he had been taken from a light of which the charm defied description. Another criminal, who escaped through the breaking of the halter, said after a second or two of suffering a light appeared, and across it a most beautiful avenue of trees. All agree that the uneasiness is quite momentary, that a pleasurable feeling immediately succeeds, that colors of various hues start up before the eyes, and that, these having been gazed at for a limited space, the rest is oblivion. The mind, averted from the reality of the situation, is engaged in scenes the most remote from that which fills the eyes of the spectator. Medicafinen have paid much attention to the anatomy of the neck and throat in regard to the circumstances which bring about asphyxia, suffocation or choking, aad they say that some necks possess a power of resisting these effects to a very remarkable degree.

“There’s Millions in It.”

The Texas Live Stock Journal says that “no occupation in Texas is so lucrative, when the investor is willing to wait for returns on his capital, as stock raising. Some of the wealthiest men in Texas began with only a few head of cattle, and are now noted as millionaires. The occupation is easily learned, and, on account of the open air, active life, very healthful. Only a moderate capital is necessary for a start, and in a few years the investor finds himself the possessor of a handsome property, which increases with very little 1 rouble. It is computed, from reliable statistics, that a herd of 100 cows, in three years, will increase to 384 cows, 81 yearlings, 57 2-year-olds and 50 3-year -olds; in six years to 769 cows, 615 calves, 220 yearling-t, 158 2-year-olds, 113 3-year-olds, 81 4-year-olds, aud 57 5-year-olds; in twelve years to 6,684 cows, 4,649 calves, 1,633 yearlings, 1,160 2-year-olds, 834 3-jear-olds, 693 4-year-olds, 430 5-ycar-olds. Total of 14,988 head, worth, at the rate of @lO a head, 8150,000 in round numbers. ” Thb Duchess of Teck, who was, next to Victoria, entitled to the throne of England, lives in London, a portly handsome, Parepa-Rosaish sort of woman,

THE WAR IN EGYPT.

BoubaifißHal w« IlftUttttttvU., The bombardment of Alexandria was begun at 7:45 o’clock on the morning of Tuesdtf, July 11, by the iron-dads Bultia, Jnperb and Alexandra, of tbe British The batteriea replied at onoe, their abot at twt sassing shaft of the ships. The Inflexible, Temeraire, Penelope, Invincible and Monarch aoon Joined In the battle. Two of the forts eeaaed string attar twenty minutes. The gunboats Bittern, Condor, Beaoon, Decoy and Cygnet attacked and quickly silenoed the Marabout batteries at the eatranoeto the harbor. The Invinoiblo then landed a party of marinea- at Fort Max, who blew up the heavy gnns with dynamite. At the moment of opening the siege dense crowds of people could bo seen making their way toward the palace, and the streets were soon drsortod. The Geneva red oroes was visible over the hospital, and the Dutch and Greek flags oould be soon waving above thoir consulates. At 8 o’clock tb® magazine at Fort Ada, close to the palace, was exploded. At noon four forts had been blown up, when the Arina practically oeased. The English fleet had five men killed aud twenty-seven wounded. Several of the earthworks behind which guns wore mounted proved to bo more sand-heaps. The Turkish Ambassador at London waa telegraphed by the Porte to lose not a moment in urging Lord Granville to order a cessation of firing. In the British House of Lords, Granville said tho bombardment was directed against a military despotism, and was not an act of war against the allied powers. The New York Tribune's special cablegram says of the bombardment: “ The bombardment marks an epoch in the history of warfare, for never has such a storm of shot and shell been hurled against any defenses, either on land or sea. The Alexandra was the first ship to open fire, and, the shots being returned, in a quarter of an hour the action became general. The broadside iron-clads alone remained at anchor. The remainder of the fleet steamed to and fro in the roadstead. The Arabs stood to the guns of the other forts with a sturdy determination until near midday ; but their fire was very ill-directed. Most of the shots fell short or went over the ships, and the few that ■truck did little dsmage. “The result of the engagement has not by. any means fulfilled the expectations of artillerists, and there is much su; prise that the shellsfired from the eighty-ton guns of the Inflexible had so little effect on o earih-works. In considering that, it o’ to be borne in mind that this ship directed lit>r file from a poiut two miles distant from the batteries. The heaviest guns of the other vessels are four of tweuty-five tons on the Monarch, two of twenty-live tons on the Alexandra, aud the rest are armed with eighteen and twelve tons. The heaviest guns mounted on the Egyptian forts are eighteen and twelve tons, of the old Woolwich pattern, but still very serviceable weapons of the larger kind, throwing 400pound shells, calculated to pierce twelve-inch armor. The day’s operations extended over a line of four miles in length.” The bombardment was resumed early on the morning of the 12th. The Inflexible and Temeraire opened fire on Moncrieffe fort, which, during the night, had been repaired. The batteries were evidently much damaged by the first three shots, as they made no response. A steamer was soon seen approaching the fleet with a flag of truce, and a simitar em-' blem was hoisted at the arsenal, when the bombardment was suspended. When the gunboat Bittern proceeded to the harbor to learn the object of the flag of truce, Toulba Pasha sent word that he wished to com--muuicate with Admiral Seymour, and was informed that as a preliminary condition the forts must be surrendered. Several large fires broke out in the city. The Turkish Ambassador at London was informed by Earl Granville that England acted in the name of Europe. - The London Daily Telegraph correspondent telegraphs regarding the second day’s bompardment: “1 took an open boat and. went close alongside land. I found all the batteries facing the sea destroyed and the guns dismounted. An ’ Arab informed me that many hundred persons had been killed between Adjemi and Alexandria. An explosion occurred in the middle of the fort, killing everybody inside. Arabs informod me the noise of bursting shells was like thunder, and they declared hundreds of people were killed in distant streots. They stated that the obstinacy of the defense was owmg to the fact that the batteries were manned by negro Mohammedans. They estimate the loss of life among soldiers and townsfolk at 2,000. “ Naval officers witnessing the combat expressed tho opinion that, with the exception of the Temeraire and the gunboats, the English ships have not distinguished themselves very greatly as artillerists, many shells of the Monarch, Invincible and Suporb falling seriously short. Nearly half the missiles seemed to fall in the water. The guns likewise were served very slowly, giving the Egyptians time to recover from their surprise and regain courage. Foreign officers think lighter guns more quickly served would have ended the action sooner. They give the palm to Lord Charles Beresford, on the Condor, who under heavy fire maneuvered admirably, inflicting heavy loss. Sacking: and Burning: of Alexandria —Horrible Atrocities The entire garrison of Alexandria withdrew, wlide under the protection of a flag of truce, on the morning of July 18, leaving the city in flames. The city had been fired in several directions by the released convicts, who, in conjunction with tho Bedouins and women, perpetrated horrible atrocities. They murdered hundreds of Europeans and Christians, the survivors being compelled to fight their way to the beach, and there being rescued by the telegraph ship Chiltern. A correspondent on board the Invincible telegraphs as follows: “ After daybreak this morning a number of persons were seen on the edge of the water of the harbor. Glasses showed them to bo Europeans. Boats were at once lowered, and crews, armed to the teeth, started to tho shoro. They found aboftt 100 Europeans, many of them wounded, who had gathered in the Anglo- Egyptian Bank and had resisted desperately. They had maintained themselves throughout the night. Toward daylight • their assailants drew eff, and the party made their way to the shore. They reported that Arabi Pasha, before he left with his troops, had the prisons opened, and that the convicts, joined , by tho lower classes and some Bedouins, proceeded to sack tho city and kill every Christian they could find, and "sot the English quarter on fire. From the part they were defending, the Europeans could hear shrieks and cries, and reports of pistols and guns. Scores of fugitives were . cut flown or beaten to death m their sight. The European quarter and the great square are a mats of smoking rums. All the public buildings are destroyed, and nothing European si ems to have escaped the rage of the fanatios. The scenes of carnage on shore are appalling. The town, for some hours after the troops left, was a veritable pandemonium.” It is reported that the bulk of t Egyptian army is at Rosetta, forty mile heist of Alexandria, and at Damcphour, thirty-eight miles southeast of Alexandria. The soldiers had joined in looting the city before leaving it; There has been a great loss of property. The English, American, French, Italian and Austrian Consulates are burned. Arabi will probably fly to Upper Egypt. The maswers.4ff the llih of June was fearfully avengofl upon the Arab batteries by the Infletfitfle’s 81-tpn gnus.

Admiral Seymour landed about, 1,000 marines at Alexandria on the 14th mat, tha balk of whom were sent to guard the Khedive in his palace. They represented all the War ships in the harbor, the American complement being sixty men. Arabs were, pillaging the town, and 200 marines were given ordeifs to march about the city and shoot all rioteTs and looters. Explosions were continually occurring. Ajjartyof bluer jackets spiked nineteen guns.in Fort Gabarri The number of Christians mas sacked by the mob is estimated at 2,000.; It is stated that Arabi Pasha was a fugitive, and that his troops were dispersing. The Turkifeh Primb Minister maintains he must be treated as a rebeL Arabi gave orders to murder the Kheaive, and bura* and pillage the city before quitting it. The fire continued with unacted fuiy., and women were seen _ throwiii ' petroleum upon buildings. All the Arabs carried white handkerchiefs an . sticks.

Twenty armed' Europeans, who escaped the general massacre, wore told by a Pasha, whom they, mot on their way through tho town, that the' Egyptian killed numbered over six hundred.

What It Is All About.

From 639 to 1517 Egypt wm rated byto« “fc.. 'dependelSt'M<3Bl6ml , rince«. FrooTi6l7 to 1811 the country was under the .gfeolate Turkey. After ay Engliffjt hemot Ali was appointed rebelled against hlrii, bufaftar a settee he became virtual master of the oodßry. Mw along conflict with Turkey be ypecufM the recognition of liir dynasty fromAthe Saltan, the five great powers of Europe guaranteeing tho succession and the fulfillment of conditions on the part of Turkey. In this way Egypt came into Eurbpean'polidos as the ward of the nations, the powers aU having an lutoceat iu U» conduct of her affair! In 1806 the Sugaq. the ruler of Egypt the title of King <1 KhttliVe.and in 1873 granted to tho KkodlWr Ismail L) the right to conclude treaties with foroigu powers and to maintain armies. This mado tho Khedive virtually independent, and ho prooeoded to inaugurate a graud ays* tom of public improvements. His not wolluircotoJ cuthuslMiu ended in the distress of his pcop'o ind of the conutry, •nd in 187% affcafthere had l>eon years of reckless cxpHußTlfti nnd .JOoso management, England and France interfered undor a clause of the guarantee of 1841, compelled Ismail L to abdicate, put Mohammed Tewfik, tl* present Khedive, on thtf throne, and placed tho administration of affair# under the supervision of two representing the two European Governments. In 1880 the Khedive appointed an International Oonuisss'on of Liquidation to examine tho financial situation of Egypt aud frame a law regulating the relations tietwoen Egypt and her creditors. Both of those steps,were tskou with the consent of all the kuaranteainsr powers, and for a time it soemod~that tho Controllers General would carry out without difficulty maay.peeded reforms. A great deal was accomplished, but the European methods, while they admittedly made the" condition of the people bo i tor, oxcited the prejudice of tho Arabs, or Mohammedans, and this dissatisfaction was enoouraged by Turkish emissaries. Among the younger men ;o£ the Mohammedan party was Arabi Bey, jvho, after an adventurous career i*my, became Minister of War. He was fronithe first dissatisfied with European management ip Egypt, and his influence there was established the Chamber of Notables. This is composed of seventyfive chiefs or leaders chosen from among the wealthier natives, and its establishment was proclaimed as the first step toward constitutional government, the claimants igndMfig tßg" fact that the Board of Control bad given the country the first semblance of constitutional government it had experienced.. The Chamber of Notables, selected by the army, or under the influence of the army, became the creaturo of the War Minister, and soon came in conflict, with the Kjredive and tho Controller* Ge3firak" This oop4(ptripencd into open rebellion omthe part of fjmn'e followers, and the Khedive was held for virtually a prisoner. . ■fee' England and France primarily, and Germany, Austria and Russia in an inoidwafnl wav, were under obligations to Stand by the Khc live and the Controllers General, and very eaily in the agitation England made the demand that Arabi Bey be retired and the statu quo re-established. i’he Khedive was powerless, and could not comply with tha demand. Turkey, put forward her claim to intervene in such cases under old treaties, and negotiations were opened making the matter of settlement a European question. In tho meantime Arabi B y was encouraged in his attitude of hostility by agents representing »he jealousies ofthe 'several nations and the boar interest in bonds, and for weeks the question was given an artificial color through the manipulation of speculators. - England, having made the demand that the Khedive and the Controllers General should be re-established in full authority, prepared quietly to stand by it, and, after a conference at Constantinople, the representatives of the powers decided that, under certain contingencies, England should take the initiative in &nnq£ intervention. Arabi Bey was ordered tjrsuspendw° rlt oa toe Alexandria -fortifications, this work, with tho fleets of Europe in the harbor, being an act of hostility. He did not comply, and at the expiration of twenty-four hours’ notice the fleet opened Are on the forts with the results noted in the dispatches. In this action England represents Europe, and there is no chance for misunderstanding on this point. But op the iqnpstion of .flow far she may proceed after bombardment there is chance for misunderstanding at every step, and there is a possibility of half of Europe becoming involved m the trouble.

Arctic Mosquitoes.

The one bitter drop in our cup of joy was the monstrous but inseparable curse of Arctic summer mosquito. He abounded,flourished, surpassed himself, out-mosquitoed himself on the Kuloi river. We were at his mercy; our veils, gauntlets, handkerchiefs, flapper, all were vanity and vexation. To kill was wanton, for to destroy sufficient was impossible. We had foreseen all this, and had even thought of taking, among other things, a woodpecker from Gome with us to protect our faces while we slept; but one woodpecker would have been a solemn mockery ; we 'should have wanted a fresh woodpecker every five minutes.

AN OPEN LETTER.

Some Outspoken Statement* of 6nat Value from Parties of the Hlfkmrt ' Standing-. When the people of Amerio* beoome bo thoroughly aroused, ud on a subject of such aerrioua importance aa the preservation of their lives and health, it is hut natural that the ones who have been largely instrumental in the origin of this movement should speak frankly and directly to the people most interested. It is for this reason that we thus oome before the public and make the following revelation*. Every careful observer who has sought to keep pace with the march of events has noted the al&runiug increase of oertain peculiar physical troubles within the past few years. These troubles have oome at unexpected moments and in a most treacherous way. They have mamfen ted themselves in innumerable forms, but they have always bad the samo cause. They 'have not afflicted the minor parts of the body, hot have gone diroot to the strongholds of the system, and their work has usually been as prompt as it is fatal. Their treacherous and deceptive nature has often prevented a careful analysis of what causes thorn, and, as a result, intense suffering and final disaster have usually ensued. The real cause, howev< r, has been a derangement of the kidneys, and all of these troubles are, in fact, the first symptoms of the terrible Bright’s disease, which has cast its dark shadow over so many homes in the land and is increasing wonderfully and cominuaßy. It is now conoeded by the ablest physicians in every land and by eminent scientists the world over, that this disease is the result of blood poisoning. This poisoning is brought about by wasted and unhealthy kidneys that permit the poison to remain in the Wood instead of throwing it off from the system. But it is equally evident to all who have studied into the effects and have become conversant with the facts that a disordered state of the kidneys and liver produces most of the common complaints and pains which afflict the human race, and they can be traced to this source just as certainly as can Bright’s disease. To purify a stream we must go to its source, and to core a disease we must remove the cause. It being true, therefore, that nine-tenths of all human ailments are caused by diseased kidneys or liver, the only certain way to oure these troubles is by treating the organs which cause them. How intimately the kidneys are associated with the entire system may be understood from the fact that over 1,000 ounces of blood pass through them every hour, being more than 200 gallons, or nearly one ton in the course of twenty four hours. This vast mass of living fluid is sent to every part of the body, and if the kidneys are diseased the impurities that are in the blood are not removed, and hence pass through the veins, carrying disease in some one of its many terrible forms. The horrors which acoompany most of the diseases caused by disordered kidneys and liver cannot be described in print, while the dangers surrounding them are even greater than the agony. And yet a person may De troubled for months without knowing the cause of the diseases that have attacked him. Some of the symptoms of the first stages, any odo of which indicates disordered kidneys or liver, are these : Pains in the back and around the loins, severe headaches, dizziness, inflamed eyes, a coated tongue and a dry mouth, loss of appetite, chilly sensations, indigestion (the stomach never is in order when the kidneys or Ever are deranged), a dryness of the skin, nervousness, night sweats, muscular debility, despondency, a tired feeling especially at night, puffing or bloating under the eyes, etc. If any of the following things are noticed about the fluids passed from the system, it shows that the kidneys and liver are out of order: A rod deposit, a scum upon the surface, an unusual thickness or thinness, a very dark or a very light color, a burning sensation in passing, an unusual odor, a retention, or a frequent desire to void and inability to do so. Tne above are a few of tho hundreds of symptoms which indicate the beginning of aggravated cases of kidney or liver difficulties, and they require instant attention. If these symptoms are not checked at once, they are almost certain to result in some one of tho many terrible diseases of the kidneys. But, unpleasant as all the symptoms and even these diseases may be, they are as nothing compared to the last stages of the complaints. The kidneys waste away by degrees, accompanied by intense Jiaius; the heart become uncontrollable; the ungs are oppressed ; the eyeballs grow glassy, and the entire system is reduced and debilitated. For weeks before death comes the sufferer looks forward to it as a blessed relief, and anything that can furnish even temporary help is gladly hailed. Then it is that bloating begins ; the face becomes puffy and pallid ; the breath can only be caught in gasps, speech is impossible and muscular action suspended. The patient finally sinks into a st?.te of unconsciousness to everything except the pains which are racking him, and death comes by certain but slow degrees. There can be but one conclusion which all readers of care and judgment will draw from these facts, which is the necessity of treating the disease in time and by that means which has been proven the best and most efficient. It has been our privilege to treat more cases and effect more cures of this terrible complaint than has ever been known before in the history of the world. The wonderful sale which our remedies have attained is due wholly to the fact that they have cured the ones who have used them. The power and value of any remedy must rest wholly"on a basis of worth, and here is just where our Safe Kidney and Liver Cure has found its wonderful power and success. But in this connection comes one important fact: It has always been true that articles of merit are Bubject to imitations. No one seeks to counterfeit the bills of a worthless bank. The productions of a cracked inventor or witless writer are never copied. It is just so with a healing remedy. If it possesses no merit it will not be subjected to imitations. If, however, it has power and value, imitations will spring up on every side. While it is a tribute to the value of this medicine that it has imitations, BtiU, in justice to those who are suffering, we feel that all should be warned agains them. There is but one known remedy that has ever been able to cure serious kidney troubles or control these great organs when once deranged, and that remedy is Warner’s Safe Kidnoy and Liver Cure. There are numerous nostrums on the market Claiming to be just as efficient and some which even claim to be the same. The test of merit, however, is in what has been accomplished, and we therefore say unhesitatingly that for all diseases of the kidneys, liver and urinary organs Wt rner’s Safe Kidney and Liver Cure stands alone, not only in point of excellence, but in the wonderful results it has achieved. In order to successfully avoid the purchase of spurious and injurious medicines, observe these facts: Our remedy is put up in dark amber glass bottles, with the Safe (our trade mark) blown in the back. A private proprietary six-cent in-ternal-revenue stamp is affixed to the neck and covers the top of the cork and is of a light brown color. In the middle thereof is a Safe in outline, and on it the picture of a negro gathering herbs. If this stamp is not found on every 1 bottle of the Safe Kidney and Liver Cure, Or if there is any evidence that it has been tampered with, and if a Safe is not blown on the back of the bottle, reject the bottle at once, and insist on having a genuine one. We are led to publish the foregoing in order that the public may know and realize just where we stand. We have always sought to keep our personality from obtruding upon the public, knowing full well that the value of our remedy was the essential thing, but the unexampled use which has been made of tbia medicine, and the volume of letters we are constantly receiving demand a personal statement from us. We are justly gratified at the confidence which has. been shown us, and thankful for the myriads of cures our remedy has performed, and we pledge ourselves for the future, as we have endeavored in the past, to furnish the best and only valuable remedy that can control and cure all the many and terrible troubles arising from disorders of these great organs. Sincerely, H. H. Warner & Co., Rochester, N. Y.

The Bird of Paradise.

The twelve-wired bird of paradise in its adult male plumage presents a very remarkable appearance. The head, neck and throat are velvety black, changing in certain lights to a beautiful purple. The breast feathers are edged with metallic emerald green. The back is olive"gFS9ir* K the primaries and secondaries rich purple, the flank and under tail cpverts buff. The peculiarity which Suggested a name for the bird is a curious prolongation of the shafts of the flank feathers—six on each side, like long wires. The female does not possess these, and is altogether much plainer in plumage. Mr. Wallace has described it as frequenting flowering trees, especially sago-palms and pandani, sucking the flowers, round and beneath which its unusually large and powerful feet enable it to cling. Its motions are very rapid. It seldom rests more than a few moments on one tree, after which it flies offj and with great swiftness, to "another, It has a loud, shrill cry, which can be heard a long way, consisting of t‘Oah, cah,” repeated five or six times itfa descending scale, and at the last npte it generally flies away. The males are- solitary in their habits, although Jterhaps they assemble at times, like the birds. The value of all farms in the United States is estimated at $10,196,890,645 ; vslUeof farm implements at $456,516,902 ; live stock, $1,500,487,189 ; fertilizer* purchased and used in 1879, $27,598,859; fences, cost of building and repwring in 1879, $77,765,723.

What Is It?

It is an article that is having a greater success than any other preparation of a like nature for the time it has been before the people. It has cured, and is still curing to-day, more obstinate cases of Indigestion and Dypcpsia than any other preparation known. It is guaranteed to give satisfaction, or money will be refunded, for the following ailments: Liver and Kidney Complaints, Impurity of Blood, including Pimples and Blotches, or other skin eruptions, Indigestion, Dyspepsia, etc. It is not a beverage nor a violent purgative. Is pleacaut to take, safe and sure in its effects, quick in its action, and lasting and permanent in its cures, the component ingredients being highly soothing to the system. They derive their virtues chiefly from the rare merits of the old Burdock plant, oombined and ohemieally prepared with other great curative medicines. Our grandmothers and grandfathers used the Burdock root alone, with the greatest success. Burdock Blood Bitters is a compound that is giving such universal satisfaction that the proprietors instruct all druggists to refund money wlion relief is not given by its use. Sold by all druggists. “ I feel, lam growing old,” says the lady, mincingly, to her guests, “ for really I am be- § inning to lose my hair.” (Of course she has ushels of it, and"it is black as a raven’s wing.) “Then, ma,” exclaims her little child, with the innocent frankness of infancy, “why don’t you lock up the drawer when you put it away at night 7”
