shown an ear of corn a few day ao grown by Mr. Jennings, of Brownsville, Union county, this state, which is a wonder. It has grown out a.id around a perfectly formed ear In the center, twelve other ears, all grown fast at the base of the center ear, Cut otherwise separate find distinct. It is the ordinary field, variety of white corn. It was presented vo Rev. O. IL Abbott, of this city. The Afton (Iowa) Newt reports a strange freak ot electricity. Several herders were sitting in a room during a storm, when a bolt of lightning came down the chimney prostrating four of them and stunning all. One had one boot torn from his foot, while the oth1 er, that was resting on a chair, escaped unharmetL Another had both boots torn off, and his feet badly burned All in the room were affected in their legs and feet. The theory is that the floor was momentarily charged with electricity. About one year ago, Mr. Wm. Fal lon, of the town of Harmony, Wis, missed one of his pigs, and after diligently searching for the same gave it up as lost. A few days ago he had oc casion to remove a straw stack which was bunt about the time the pig was lost, and on reaching the bottom of the stack he was astonished on finding toe missing pig, which was alive, but re duced somewhatt in flesh. Mr. Fallon gave the pig all the milk it could drink immediately on taking it out of its prison, from the affects of which it died shortly afterward. Judge T. J. Mackey, of South Caro lina, has suggested to the planters that the insufficiency of the rations usually given to colored laborers is the cause of the prevalence of cotton stealing. At the same time he says that extensive observation in the state has convinced him that the negroes are less addicted to stealing than any class of agricultural laborers in the world who outnumber their employers in the same proportion, and that when they steal agricultural products they are impelled by want of food for their families. Prof. S. B. Ileiges, president of the Pennsylvania fruit grower's society, in his late address before that association, stated that for two years past he had no difficulty In saving hi3 entire crop of plums from the ravages of curculio. His remedy was simple, but had, nevertheless proved effectual. It consisted in preparing a solution of old, putrid whale-oil soap, and syringing his trees effectually with the preparation, so as to w? every-leaf- if -possible. This was applied frequently, and always after a shower of rain, commencing when the petal were falling from the blossoms, and ending only when the fruit arrived at the ripening season. . The Michigan fish commion have determined to erect a fishery in Detroit for the breeding of white fish. A building 60x25 will be built, in the front of which is an office and reception room, and a sleeping room for the person in charge. Back of these rooms is the hatching room, about forty-five feet long and twenty-five feet wide. Across this room is arranged seve n long hatching slips, each slip being divided into seven apartments, called hatching boxes. These slips are about four feet wide with depths varying from two to four feet. In the aisles between the hatching slips are arranged supply reservoirs with reservoirs siranged around three sides of the room. ThrlTlng by the Plow j An "Old Settler's Progress in Nebraska. Franklin, who was professor of political economy to the infant nation, placed the plow first and last, among the factors of the nation's wealth. The plow is first, because until the land is cultivated and made to yield its incr jase, a nation which is an inter-dependent and civilized community is impossible; and, however great a people may be in commerce and manufactures the plow is also last, because the dependence upon the farmer for bread never ceases. Farming, therefore, is always essential; and he who farms his own land is on the certain road to comfort and sufficient affluence. The following is one example in XebraskiU But, lie, who by the plow would thrive, JJunsell must either hold or drive. And the subject of this brief notice hos fulfilled the conditions of Franklin's "wise saying." He was not afflicted with the constant fever for moving which lesds so many pioneers to quit that which is good, in search of something better, lie got a farm aiid stucc by it. Neither has he engaged iu speculation of any kind ; but has mada his position by industry in one busiGeorge Adams left Crawford county, Pennsylvania, in 1660, and settled on government land in Cass county, Nebraska, about ten miles from the Missouri and on the banks of Weeping Water. His whole wealth consisted of two voke of cattle ; and he had to go in debt for his land, that is he had to borrow the money to pay the government price for the 160 acros he entered. What is the result of his adventure? In 1S73 he had 130 acrea in wheat, which yielded SO bushels per acre, or 2,000 bushels. This wheat he old at 92 cents per bushel, realizing i s;v. Ha had 10 acres of rye sown for feed: and, after pasturing this rye during the wiater and spring, Mr. Adams reaped 120 bashels, 12 bushels per acre. He had 120 acres of corn w hich yielded 5,000 bushels, an average of 41)'s bushels per acre, and worth SO cents )er bushel. Mr. Adams sold pork which realized 10O, cattia SS31 and horse SI 50. The labor employed on the farm was that of one man at 20 per month, Mr. Adams and a boy aged 12 years. He cut with a header 245 acres of grain for neighbors at SI per acre; and ths profit thus made paid tJ.e esreaes of harvesting and selling fc s OTt'-'t-duee.

Short Hints A boot Sickness. Don't whisper in the sick-room. When the doctor comes to see you remember how many pairs of stairs he has to climb every day. and go down to him if you are well enough. When yon are sitting op with a pa tient, be sure to have something to eat, if you wish to save yourself un necessary exhaustion. liemember that sick people are not necessarily idiotic or imbecile, and that it is not alwavs wise to try to persuade them that their sufferings are imaginary. They may even at times know best what they neevL Xever deceive a dying person unless by the doctor's express orders. It is not only wrong to allow any soul to go into eternity without preparation, but how can you tell but that he has something he ought to tell or do be fore he gows away ? If you have a sick friend to whom you wish to be of use, do not content yourself with sending her flowers and jelly, but lend her one of your pictures to hang in place of hers, or a bronze to replace the one at which she is so tired of staring. Dont have needless conversations with the doctor outside of the sick room. Nothing will excite and irri tate a nervous person sooner. If you do have such conversations, don't tell the patient that the doctor said "noth ing." He won't believe you, and he will imagine the worst possible. In lifting the sick, do not take them by the shoulders and drag them up on to the pillows, but get some one to help you. Let one stand on one side of the patient, the other opposite, then join hands under the shoulders and hips, and lift steadily and promptly together. This method is easy for those who lift, and does not disturb the one who is lifted. Do not imagine that your duty is over when you have nursed your pa tient through his illness, and he is Kb jut the house, or perhaps going out again. Strength does not come back in a moment, and the days when little things worry and little efforts exhaust, when the cares of business begin to press, but the feeble brain and hand refuse to think and execute, are the most trying to the sick one, and then comes the need of your teuderest care, your most unobtrusive watchfulness.

Until Innocent IV. (1243), there was no special tribunal against heretics, distinct from those of the bishops.The Inquisition, then introduced, in accor dance with the centralization of the times, was a general and papal tribunal, which displaced the old local nes. The bishops therefore viewed the in novation with great dislike, considering it as an intrusion upon their rights. It was established in Italy, in Spain, Germany and the southern prov inces of France. The temporal sovereigns were enly too desirous to make use of this powerful engine for their own political purpones. Against this the popes strongly protested. They were not willing that its use should pass out of the ecclesiastical hand. The Inquisition, having already been tried in the southern part of France, had there proved to be very effective for the suppression of heresy. It had been introduced into Aragon.Now was assigned to it the duty of dealing with the Jews. In the old times, under Visgothic rule, these people had greatly prospered, but the leniency that had been shown to them was succeeded by atrocious persecution, when the Visigoths abandoned their Arianism and became orthodox. The most inhuman ordinan ces were issued against them a law was enacted condemning them all to be slaves. It was not to be wondered at that when the Saracen invasion took place the Jews did whatever they could to promote its success. They, like the Arabs, were an Oriental people, both tracing their lineage to Abraham, their common ancestor; both were believers in the unity of God. It was their defense of that doctrine that had brought upon them the hatred of their Visigcthic masters. Under the Saracen rule they were treated with the highest consideration. Tey became distinguished for their wealth and their learning. For the most part they were Aristolians. They founded many schools and colleges. Their mercantile interests led them to travel all over the world. They particularly studied the science of medicine. Throughout the middle ages they were the physicians and bankers of Europe, Of all men they saw the course of human affairs from the most elevated point of view. Among the special sciences, they became proficient in mathematics and astronomy ; they composed the tablea of Alfonso, and were the causa of the voyage of DeGaaia. They distinguished them.elves greatly in liyht literature. From the tenth to the fourteenth century their literature was the first in Europe, They were to be found in the courts of princes as their physicians, or as treasurers managing the public finances. The orthodox clergy in Navarre had excitrS popular prejudices ugainat them. To escape the persecutions that arose, many of them feigned to turn : Christians, and of these tiacy apcta-1

tlzt.il to their former faith. The papal

nuocioat the court of Castile raised a cry for the establishment of the Inquisition. The poorer Jews were accused of sacrificing Christian children at the passover, in mockery of the crucifixion; the richer were denounced as Averroists. Under the influence of Torquemada, a Dominican monk, the confessor of Queen Isabella, that princess solicited a bull from the pope for the establishment of the Holy Office, A limll was accordingly issutsd in No vember, 1473, for the detection and suppression of heresy. In the first year of theoperation of the Inquisition, 1481, two thousand victint? were burned n Andalusia; besides these many thousands were dug up from their graves and burned; seventeen thousand were fined or imprisoned for life. hoever of the persecuted race could flee, escaped for his life. Torquemada, now appointed InquisitorGeneral for Castile and Leon, illustrated his office by his ferocity. Anonymous accusations were received, the accused was not confronted by witnesses, torture was relied upon for convic tion : it was inflicted in vaults where no one could hear the cries of the tor mented. As, in pretended mercy it was forbidden to inflict torture a second time, with horrible duplicity it was affirmed that the torment had not been completed at first, but had only been suspended out of charity until the following day. The families of the convicted were plunged into irretriev able ruin. Slorente, the historian of the Inquisition, computes that Torquemada and his collaborators, in the course of his eighteen years, burnt at the stake ten thousand two hundred and twenty persens, six thousand eight hundred and sixty in effigy, and otherwise punished ninety-sfcven thousand three hundred and twenty-one. This frantic priest destroyed Hebrew Bibles wherever he could find them, and burned six thou sand volumes of Oriental literature at Salamanca, under an imputation that they ineulcated Judaism. With unutterable disgust and indignation, we learn that the papal government real ized much money by selling to the rich dispensations to secure them from the Inquisition. But all these frightful atrocities proved failures. The conversions were few. Torquemada, therefore, insisted on the banishment of every unbaptized Jew. On March 30th, 1492, the edict of expulsion was signed. All unbap tized Jews, of whatever age, sex or condition, were ordered to leave the realm by "the end of the following Ju ly. If they revisited it, they should suffer death. They might sell their ef fects, and take the proceeds in mer chandise or bills of exchange, but not in gold or silver. Exiled thus suddenly from the land of their birth', the land of their ancestors for hundreds of years, they could not m the glutted market that arose sell what they pos sessed. Nobody would purchase what could be got for nothing after July. The Spanish clergy occupied themselves by preaching in public squares, sermons filled with denunciations against their victims, who, when the time for expatriation came, swarmed in the roads, and filled the air with their cries of despair. Even the Span ish onlookers wept at the scene of agony. Torquemada, however, enforced the ordinance that no one should afford them any help. Of the banished persons, some made their way into Africa, some into Italy ; the latter carried with them to Naples ship fever, which destroyed no fewer than twenty thousand in that cily, and devastated that peninsula; some of them reached Turkey, a few England. Thousands, especially mothers with nursing infants, children and old people, died by the way. Many of them in the agonies of thirst. History of conflict ottioeen Religion and science. INSURANCE.
