Pational Buanner, PRI S NN NN S M S N R THE MOST SINGULAR WILL CASE :‘ s o' lmﬂll. 3 The Columbus (Ohio) Journal of the 22d ult, sayes . . o 0 R Yesterday we heard of and read part of the most singular will on record. The maker of the will is represeated to be a shrewd, successful buginegs man, who' has accumulated quite & large fortune. He exhibits no other signg of insanity than may he derived from the extreme eceentricity ‘of his will, although it is probable sthat the courts will,- in due course, be ~called upon td detérmine the question “whether the testator was of sound and ‘disposing mind. 'ghe will disinherits all the natural heirs of the maker of it, and devises the entire property in trust for the establishment of an Infirmary for Cats! A most elaborate architectural plan for the necessary buildings is attachcd to and made part'of the will. It provides areas for fhat sweet amatory converse 80 dear to the feline heart, and rat holes of the most ravishing na“ture, to be kept well stocked. The most ingenious contrivances are provided for securing to the rat a chance of escape, so that the eats may not lose the pleasures of the chase by finding their prey come too easily. High walls are to be built with gently, sloping roofs, for' the moonlight promenage and other nocturnal amtsements of the cats. The trustees are' directed to select the grounds for this novel infirmary in the most populous part of some American city, and the devises are to be protected Zy a competent force of nurses trom the ravages of men and dogs. Ng person of the male sexis ever to be admitted within the walls, and no female .who has children or is under thirty years old. There are hundreds of minute directions which we have no time to record.

One would suppose that in the foregoing provisions the testator had ex‘haus’t_e(f all the eccentricities of one man, however unique his nuture; but the last proyision of the’ will seems ‘more couragiously bizarre than any that go before.—Says the devisor: I have all my life been taught to believe that anything in about man was intended to be useful; and that it was man,s duty, as lord of animals, to protect all the lesser species, even as God protecte and watches over him. %‘or these two combined reasons—first, that my body, even after death, may continue to be made useful; and gecondly, that it may be made instrumental, as far as possible, in furnishiug a substitute for- the protection of the bodies of my dear friends, the-cats—l do hereby devise and bequeath the intestines of my body to be made up in fiddle-strings, the proceeds to b devoted to the purchase of an accordeon, which shall be: played in the auditorium of the Cat Infitmary by one of the regular nurses to be selected for that purpose exclusively—the playing to be kept up forever and «ver, without cessation day or night, ‘in order that the cats may have the privilege of always hearing and enjoying that instrnment, which is the nearest approach to thieir natural voice. 2 el —ere = ; Yankee Fanaticism. The radicals of Massachusetts have recently had enacted by a legislative ijority, a liquor law so extremely stringent us o prohibit the sale of malt liquors, which appears to have been expressly intended to harass, humiliate and afinoy the Germans. All the principal hotels of Boston, sellihg the heaviest of liguors, gre-spared by the officers, while the lager beer saloons ave visited, the stock seized, the inmates dispersed, and the proprietors arrested. /

, If any on¢ doubts that the Germans have been specially singled out as objects of persecution by the Radical law-makers of Massachusetts, let him nete that dozens of kegs of lager beer are’ scized and forfeited where tliere is one of whiskey, gin, or ram, and cider is exempted by law.— Now, cider, ag everybody that ever drank it knows is niore tippling than lager beer. By exposing it to a freezing temperature, and drawing off all that remains unfrozen, a liquor stronger than any of the wines of commerce may+be obtained.— Cider, being g native product and consumed almost exclusively .by natives, may be, made and “taken in any quantity; while lager beer, a beverage upon which regular drinkers never become intoxicated, is forbidden and cenfiscated when it is found, because the makers and consu‘mers are ¢hiefly foreigners, Germans, the class whom it suits the radical party of Massachusetts to pursue with their smallsotled tyranny, their hatred and persecution. This crusade against a harmless beverage, not of indigenous origin, is eminently worthy of the gaunt and smileless cynics who constitute the law-making power of Massachusetts.—Huntington Democrat, R e — How Chnamen are Sworn. e . The trial’of Ah Choy and Ah’ Sam, now going on in the District Conrt for the murder of Ah Bon, says the Silver City (I. T.) Tidal Wave, is creating a greater interest than any trial that -has ever .occured here, on accouns of thé novelty of the method of swearing witnesses. A rooster's head is hacked off with a knife, a saucer broken, the oath written on yellow paper, burned, and the smoke, in which is ‘supposed to be the spirit of the burned oath, blown up to heaven in each case. The prosecution and defence cach swore five witnesses, killed five chickens, broke five saucers, burned five pieces of paper, ete. After Killing the chickens they are thrown away by the Chinamen, and considered unfit for use ; but having had their throats cut, nicely bled, etc., ‘the Americian heathens considered them none-the worse for having been sworn by, and we confess to having been guilty of the sacrilege of assisting to devour a portion that was really fat, tender, and ghood to our unsatisfied palate. .

An lowa paper says: “To illustrate how towns spring up in Towa, we give an example. Last fourth of July the town of Dexter, near our State capital, did not exist. Not a house could be fsund on the spot to be named “city.” Even the crossroads blacksmith shop was not there, and the tavern was in the mystic future, This year the editor of the State Repister wont to Dexter to attend a fourth of July cele- . bration. He found about one hundred and fifty houses there, many of them substantial buildings, with stores that had al: readgwld goods to the amount of two hundred thousand dollars. What is more juat out side. of the village, double the amount of improvement is going on, The town of Perry, omthie Des Moines Valley Railroad, had 1486 Brch three houses in _it.

T R e h epare ﬁ’ f,; '«'f‘,", f Lw““ A A case of cholera is reported slready, in New York, and it is highly probable, says the Indianapolis Journal, that we may be visited with thatscourge in the West again this season. It is,.at least, very likely that some epidewic will prevail, during thé latter part of the summer and fall. Thus far, the. season has beeti a rgmarkably Bealthy one, but with the very abundant rains which have fallen, producing rank vegetation, and followed as it has been by very hot weather, x‘:olhingi else than a sickly season -couldj,;'éasonably be expected.” Indeed, such diseases as are prevailing now, are undersfood to be highly ma- ‘ lignant in their character, and citizens are | cnutioned nof to permit attacks of cholera morbus and similar complaints, especially among children, to'pass by without immediate medical attention. In this connecéion, we desire to call the attention of the proper authorities-to the fact that the city is not clean, and that, permitting it to rewain in its present condition, we shall merely invite sickness. ' The exact situation can‘not be understood from merely passing along the streets—although some of them are bad enough—but the alleys and back premises- should be thoroughly explored, and proper cleanliness enforcéd. And this should be done at onee, if it is, not too late already, for it is far better that nothing should be dome at all than that the reeking filth should be stirred up by an attempt at renovation after the dis“ease has made its appearance. We have no dispcsition to met as alarmists, and frighten our readers, but we do desire to .impress. upon evcriyi)ody the necessity of immediately putting their premises in order, aud thereby iunvite health rather than _disease. The proper way to avoid a panic /in case an epidemic should threaten, is to make everybbdy feel secure, and this feeling of security ¢an only be brought about in one way. That, we have pointed out.

" Fracrionan Cunrrexcy.—The Government has just issued a new and very neat looking twenty-five cent postal note, and the new issue is beginning to make its appearance in small quantities. The new issue is timely, as the notes of the old issue are sadly worn, and many of them ‘are refused by dealers because they will not be received in exchahg_e. In issuing a new series of fractional notes, the regulations adopted by the Treasury Department will be of interest to lour readers. Defaced fractional notes, if wholé, are not considered as mutilated when presented for redemption, nor is an evidently ‘accidental diminution reducing the note one-tenth of its size, regarded as a mutilation.. 1. Fragments of a note will nof‘be rédeemed, unless it shall be clearly evident that they constitute one-half or more of one original note, in which case a note, however mutilated, will be redeemed in proportion to the whole note, reckoning by { fifths, excopt three-cent notes, which will be reckoned by thirds. - : 2. Mautilation less than one-tenth will be disregarded, unless fraudulent; but any mutilation which destroys more than one tenth of the original notel will reduce the redemption -‘“vnjlue of the note by ode~‘ fifth of its face value, or, if & three-cent note, by one-third of its orj‘iginni value. 3. Fragments of a three-cent note will, not ‘be rdeemed, unless’ such i“:-ngmemsi constitute fully two-thirds of the note in its original form. o | 4. Mutilated noles presented for -redemption must be in suing not less than three dollars of their original value. . : Mutilated currency is now redeemable by the T;‘ell%ll!‘(‘l‘ of the United States at \\’asbi§glon, and by no other officer. This is in accordance with ‘the regulatios just iseued,

. Keep Coor.—About this time when the heat is 80 exasperating, and the thermometer so ambitious that it is getting almost above ‘‘figgers,” it is easy enough to tell a man to ‘“keep cool,”” but how can he? Listen to advice salubrious from the Seientific American: . | : _ “Be sparing in your diet, which should consist principally of fruits, berries, and vegetables. Avoid everything of a greasy nature; also spices, condiments, and sweets. Drink nothing but water. Chew nothing but fopd ;. chew that well but do not chew too much of it. Excess in‘eating is one of the principal causes of that lazy, listless, relaxing feeling experienced by 80 many personsin hot weather. | Dress lightly and ‘change often. Wear nothing at night that 18 worn ‘:{uring the day.— Bathe the body every morning with cool or cold water. Keep a clean conscience ag well as clean body aud clean clothing, and. don’t get excited. If uncomfortably warm any time, immerse the hands, or feet, or both, in cold water for a short time, or let a stream of cold water run. upon the wrists and ankles. This will cool the whole body in a short time.”

Boiting WeLL.—Mr. G.° W. Eby, of Locke township, has an extensive manufacturing establishment, propelled by steam the water of the boiler being supplied from a well some twenty feet in depth. - For a few weeks past the water in the well has been growing warm, until it has reached over one hundred and fifty degrees in temperature, being nearly scalding hot. How can this be accounted for? Is old Nick boiling bis tea-kettle down there, or is there a young volcano in process of incubation ? It is at least a subject for the investigation of the curious. — Goshen Democrat. & ‘Tur annual cost of running our South--ern State Prison at Jeffersonville, with 424 convicts, is $66,598. The institution earns $54,270, leaving a deficiency to be made Juip by the State. The contract system is Baid to result favorably this year. Last ‘yearthere was a deficiency of $20,000.— It is yet impossible to educate the convicts a 8 the law of the State requires. In the North Prison, at Michigan City, the defiolency is $7,740.
