EXECUTIONS IN 1882.

During the year 1882 114 murderers were executed in the United States The hangman, as usual, was kept busiest in the Southern States, which furnished seventy-eight of the victims, while thirty-six were executed in the Northern States and Territories. South Carolina and Georgia head the list with ten each, closely followed bv Louisiana and Tennessee with eight victims each, Texas and Missouri coming next with seven each. Of the five credited to the Indian Territory, two were shot, the culprits choosing this death in preference to the more ignominious one of hanging. The record is as follows: South Carolina 10!

JUDGE LYNCH’S WORK IN 1882.

During the year 1882 fifty-seven men were lynched in different parts of the country. All the victims were furnished by the West and Southwest, not a case of mob violence having occurred east of Ohio. The doubtful honors are shared about equally between the “Boundless West” and the “Sunny South,” twenty-eight cases of lynching being credited to the former and twenty-nine to the latter section.

SUGGESTIONS OF VALUE.

Wild mint scattered about the house will rid it of rata and mice. Mranoßs should not be hung where the aun shines directly upon them. Warm soap-suds will keep the bugs off of house-plants and make them grow very fast. To remove finger-marks, putty-stains, etc;, from glass, put a little soda in the water with which you wash it. If kid gloves are laid upon a damp towel for two or three minutes, they will go on with less chance of tearing. Dish-towels and dish-cloths should be washed, scalded, and thoroughly dried every day, or they soon become musty. To keep linen from turning yellow put it away rough dry after washing and bleaching well and rinsing in blue water. A broom may be kept- in good condition for a long time if it is washed once a week in clean hot suds, and then hung up to dry. Good flour is not tested by its color. White flour may not be the best. The test of good flour is by the amount of water it absorbs. A range may be kept looking bright and nice with little trouble if it is wiped carefully with brown paper after greasy food has been cooked. To clean white kid shoes rub them gently and thoroughly with a perfectly clean white flannel cloth dipped in diluted ammonia water and white soap. To remove ink-stains from wood, take half a teaspoonful of oil of vitrol and dilute it with a teaspoonful of water, and apply with a feather to the damaged spot. Let it remain for a few moments and then rub it off quickly. If not successful the first time, repeat until the ink is entirely removed. It is an excellent plan to keep a large box in which all odds and ends of velvet, ribbons, etc., are keep. Such an omnium gatherum will prove a mine from which bindings, bonnet trimmings and other minor necessaries may frequently be extracted at need, and thus save many a dime or 25-cent piece. The appended recipe for tanning skins with the wool or fur on—for use in sleighs or wagons, or house-rugs, or for other purposes—is given by City and Country: “If the hides are not freshly taken off, soak them in water with a little salt until they ai’o soft as when green. Then scrape the flesh off with the fleshing knife, or with a smooth round edge, and with sheepskins the wool should be washed clean with softsoap and water and the suds thoroughly rinsed out. For each skin take four ounces of salt, four ounces of alum and one ounce of borax. Dissolve these in one quart of hot water, and when cool enough to bear the hand stir in sufficient rye meal to make a thick paste with half an ounce of Spanish whiting. This paste is to be spread over every part of the flesh side of the skin, which should be folded together lengthwise, wool side out, and left for two weeks in an airy place. Then remove the paste, wash and dry the skin. When not quite dry it must be worked and pulled out and scraped with a knife made for the purpose, shaped like a chopping knife, or with a piece of hard wood made with a sharp edge. The more the skin is -scraped and worked as it dries the more pliable it will be.”

GOOD MANNERS.

Gentlemen do not wear gloves at dinner parties. The finger-nails should never be cut or cleaned in public. For a gentleman’s party the name of host alone appears on the card of invitation. If wax tapers are used at a dinner party there should be as many lights as guests. The custom of removing the glove before shaking hands is no longer obligatory. Make you leave-taking short, and do not dally, but depart gracefully and politely. On gentlemen’s visiting cards the prefix “Mr.” is declared to be in bad taste, akin to snobbery. Special marks of kindness and attention should be received with discretion, for it is far better to refuse them than in accepting to assume privileges which are never intended. It is not now considered correct to introduce visitors who are calling at the same time, and considerate visitors will obviate any awkwardness by taking their departure immediately upon the arrival of a stranger. When at a dinner party a gentleman is introduced to the lady whom he is to take in to dinner, he should converse with her until dinner is announced, when he should offer her his right arm and conduct her to the dining room. Soup should be served with large spoons and never with dessert spoons, and there is good reason for this etiquette of spoons. Soup is nothing if not hot, and, as it is the custom to give but a very small helping of soup—about half a ladleful to each person—it is eaten quicker, and therefore hotter, with a large spoon than with a small one. The way in which a man takes his soup is by many regarded as the test of his table manners—to tin the plate and to lake the soup from tLe point of the spoon are sins against the morality of the dinner table, as great as to suck down the liquid with the sound of a miniature maelstrom. The best lawgivers on the subject demand that the spoon shall be swept through the soup away from the person, and the soup drank noiselessly from the side of the spoon, which should be lightly tipped, as if it were a small cup or bowl. To be in thoroughly good form at dinner is the very inflorescence of civilized life. Like many other regulations of social life, dinner-table etiquette is arbitrary, but not to know certain things is to argue yourself unknown so far as society life goes. To take soup pushing the spoon from rather than toward yourself; to touch the napkins as little as possible; to accept or decline what is offered instantly and quietly; these and other trifles characterize the wellbred diner-out.

An Irritable Judge.

There have been other despotic judges besides Judge Lawson on the Irish bench. The late Judge Ball, though a charming conversationalist and socially popular, was very irritable. The Cork Court House, in which on one occasion he opened assizes, was backed by an ancient flower-mill of large dimensions, owned by a very litigious gentleman named Bendeeble. So close was the mill to the Court House that the noise of the machinery disturbed the tympanum of Judge Ball, who was in his later years what is known as hard of hearing. “What noise is that, Mr. Sheriff?” he thundered, with a fiery •face. “It is the mill, my lord,” meekly responded that functionary. “Let it be stopped.” commanded the Judge. “I cannot stop it, my lord,” said the Sheriff, “the owner is the only one who can do that.” “Send for the owner, then,” said the Judge.” This was done, and the order given. Bendeeble took it literally and unconditionally. The mill was stopped, and remained*stopped long after the assizes was over. Bendeeble, who was no fool, sued for damages, and the government [had to pay a large sum to compromise.

French Methods of Swindling.

I have sometimes written about the odd way that the have oi charging for services tWofeave not been rendered, and for work that has not been done. I remember, when I first came to Paris, being decidedly amused at the experience of an American lady who has an electric bell in her apartment. The bell refused to ring one day, so she sent for the man who had put it up to set it to rights. He showed her that there was nothing the matter with the bell, some mechanical interference having prevented it from sounding. The next day she got his bill. After charging for the time lost in going to and from his shop (a legitimate charge enough), he added this item: “For looking at the bell—sl.” But this bill was surpassed by one that was presented to a French lady whom I knew quite well. She was taken ill with typhoid fever, and was confined to her bed fer some six weeks. During all this t me a female chiropodist whom she ha I sometimes employed testified the most touching interest in the case. She was never admitted to the sickroom, but she used to come to the door daily to inquire into the condition of the invalid. Finally the patient became convalescent, and one day the chiropodist called and presented a bill of startling dimensions. My friend w’as quite amazed at the amount, as she had only employed the woman occasionally. On investigating the items she found one, namely, “Inquiry for Madame,” repeated frequently, with a charge of $1 each time. “What does this mean?" she in-, quired of the chiropodist. “Madame, those are the visits that I made while Madame was so ill.” "What! you expect to be paid for calling to see how I was?” “Most certainly, Madame.” “Who sent for you or asked you to come?” “No one; it was only the great interest that I took in Madame.” “And you want to be paid $1 a visit for that interest? It is preposterous. I shall not pay you a single cent for anything of the kind.” So, despite the indignant protests of the chiropodist, my friend struck out every one of the charges of “Inquiries after Madame,” which made up no less a total than sl2. The bill thus shorn of three-fourths of its proportions, was then paid, and the woman prepared to go. “And when will Madame require my services again?” she asked. “Never. You have tried to swindle me, and I shall never employ vou any more.” Whereupon she burst into tears and departed, declaring that it was her great love for Madame had induced her to make these constant inquiries, and of course she expected to be paid for the time she had lost in making them.—Luc?/ Hooper's Paris Letter. . Says the Brooklyn Eagle: Mr. R. C. Moore, of Messrs. Vemam & Co., 34 New street, New York, was almost instantly relieved by St. Jacobs Oil of severe pain following an attack of pleurisy. The remedy acted like magic.

The Anglo-Saxon “Swing of Conquest.”

Among the several epigrammatic sentences uttered by Gen. Grant, and which have passed into history, was one in reference to the English soldier. I do not doubt that when he said it he had in his eye that peculiar gait of his veterans, with which he had seen them so often march to victory. It was in a brief address, I believe, at Gibraltar. He said that he had seen most of the soldiers of the continent; that he liked the German soldiers; that the Spanish soldiers need only good •officers to make them superior, but he had seen nothing to compare with the English. “There is,” said he, “something about them not found in any other soldiers; it may be their Anglo-Saxon blood; they have the swing of conquest.” In that vivid phrase he describes the race, and history, past, as well as the outlook of the future, confirms it. The physique is not gigantic, but the well-knit frame accepts hardships buoyantly, throws off disease readily, rises superior to weariness, and is able to obev the iron will that commands it. jPhrenological Journal. _ The art connoisseur and exhibitor, Prof. Cromwell, was cured of rheumatism by St. Jacobs Oil. — Norfolk Virginian.

Private Hogan Knew Him.

“You know a soldier has two dressesfull uniform and fatigue; the one blazing with worsted embroidery; t’other dull and somber-looking. Private Hogan, of the Second United States Foot, went forth one day into the wilderness near the barracks, and, seating himself beneath a tree, essayed to read a small book, -when the ‘ zoom,’ a yellow hornet, stung him under the left ear. ‘lt hurt,’ and Pat chased the ‘ little animal ’ for some time, but fruitlessly. Next day he went forth again; same tree; same book; everything quiet, when buzz! buzz! buzz! a large brown beetle came flying up. Pat looked at him and left. ‘ Ah!’said he, ‘my boy, d’ye think I don’t know ye in yer fatigues?’” Bismarck has just received his fortyfifth decoration, while Gladstone is totally undecorated. A physician writes: “1 have recommended Dr. Guysott’s Yellow Dock and Sarsaparilla in my practice as a general tonic. I cansider it superior to other preparation in cases of female complaints and general prostration. As a blood purifier it always acts like a charm, and as a true strengthens? it has no equal”

A Fable.

One day an old Turkey took a Walk through the Meadow to see how the Crops were getting along. Seeing a Hornet’s Nest by a Stone Wall, she Fondly Imagined she could Hatch out the Contents. So Sat down upon it, and did Hatch out the contents in about two Seconds. Five Minutes later she stood filled with Humiliation, Running her Bill through her Feathers and Attempting to Count the number of Perforations in her Breast, which looked very much like a Nutmeg-Grater. The Moral of this Fable teaches us that Squatting on other People’s Property is a Perilous Proceeding; and that there are some Humble Institutions which cannot be sat upon.— Puck.

The Conductor.

Winona, Minn., Nov. 29, 1879. I had been suffering with a severe cold for several days, and was so hoarse I could not speak above a whisper. Nov. 16 I met one of Dr. Warner’s agents on my train. He handed me a bottle of White Wine of Tar Syrup, and one hour after taking the first dose my hoarseness commenced to leave me. In twenty-four hours my voice was quite clear and natural, and the cold nearly cured. It is the best remedy I ever saw. Respectfully, C. W. Warren, Conductor, Chicago and Northwestern R R When a Boston young lady wishes to express that she has the “blues,” she simply remarks, “I have azure distemper."

THE TRANSFER

Of public confidence from other preparations of Sarsaparilla and other Blood Purifiers of whatever name to Hood’s Sarsaparilla is ths signa! triumph of a meritorious article. The people are quick to recognize true merit, and this is why the sale of Hood’s Saras, parilia far exceeds all similar preparations. One hundred doses SI can only be applied to Hood’s Sarsaparilla, and is an unanswerable a: gument as to medicinal strength and economy. CATARRH. We believe that nine-tenths of all cases of catarrh are constitutional. We also believe that a reliable constitutional remedy like Hood's Sarsaparilla, that strikes at the very root of the disease, will cure a very large proportion of all case’. In confirmation of this belief we offer evidence showing the effects of Hood's Sarsaparilla upon this disease A mother says: -My boy had catarrh so badlv that 1 could hardly keep him in clean handkerchiefs; he has taken one bottle of Hood’s Saraaparilla. and that terrible amount of discharge has stopped.” Another writes: “I have had catarrh four years.
