Western Storms.

A mill situated over a quarter of a mile awaj from the eeatn of disturberc« had Ra Iroa chimney torn oot and carried a loaf distance, hat *uoot otherwiee Idjand. The cupola at the public eehool onilding at Marshfield, which had a tin roof, was wrecked, bat the building, which war roofed with ■hicgles, was left uninjured, la the foresta the bark waa stripped from all sidee of the trees without respect to the dine tk» of the wind. Thtttaod* of the branches wen aot only dMHed ot leans aad bark, bat wen split up into fine fibres until they looked like brooms. Effects of this sort. Prat Tice contends, coaid not de produced by wind, bat an often the result of electrical action. Under its inflnsace the sap under the bark of trees is instantly vaporized, expanding two thousand fold in volum, and furnishing an explosive force which nothing can resist. The farther proof of this theory is found in the fact that the dead and dry limbs and twigs wen not effected, and, though in immediate contact with green ones, remained intact These storms, moreover, ss Prof. Tice remarks, generally follow railroads or water courses. Their velocity is tremendous. Mr. William Ferol, of the United Slates coast survey, read a paper on this interesting subject at the recent meeting of the Mew York Academy of Sciences, in which he described the motion of these-‘cloud bursts,” and attempted to explain their causes. The primary cause, be assumes, is the difference in density of the atmosphere, arising from fluctuations of temperature, these sudden changes being very com petent to generate or direct electric force of an intense sort. A portion of heated air surrounded by other air ot a colder temperature produces a sort of chimney or funnel, the heated air ascending rapidly and giving a gyratory motion to Its envelope ot colder air. These movements tend constantly to increase in rapidity and violence. Upon the assumption of a difference of only 90 millimeters between the heated air and that which surrounded it, Mr. Petrel says there will be an ascending velocity of 56 meters per second, even when due allowance is made for the friction ot the earth. This is equal to a velocity of about 48 yards per second, or 1.6 miles per miuute, or 06 miles per hour. The initial velocity ot cannon balls is only about 1,400 feet per second, so that the whirl of these cyclones is within a tenth part as great as the force of gunpowder. Mr. retml claims that the recorded facts prove that his estimates ire not extravagant. In the signal service report of a tornado at Mount Carmel, in Illinois, in 1877, there is the account of a church steeple, gilded ball and vane which were carried fifteen miles through the air. They must have been suspended in the air lor twenty or thirty minutes. If a current of air moving at this velocity ind bearing with it a large volume of water strikes the earth at any point we have a “cloud bunt” The current is arrested by the obstacles and discharges its body of water at once. —Theory by Professor Ties.
Afghan Fashions.
The dress of the Afghan women, especially those whose husbands have rank or wealth, is extremely picturesque. A short, tightly-fitting bodice of green, blue or crimson silk confines the bust, but buttons up ao closely at the throat that nne can only guess at the proportions of shoulders and bosom. The bodice is generally embroidered with gold and then becomes so stiff that it is virtually a corset. In cold weather the short sleeves of the sari art continued down to the wrist, and the vest itaelf is padded with wool for the sake of warmth. Trousers a laTure, baggy and flowing as Fatima’s, and light ly tied at the ankles; a broad silk kummerbund of almost endless length, with the ends so disposed that they become qkirts; dainty white socks and a tiny slipper or shoe, gold embroidered—such is the indoor dress of a Oabuli lady; while covering and hiding all, save feet and tnklea, is the voluminous white garment Irawn over the bead and falling to the heels.
These veiled beauties have jewelry scattered over their foreheads, bauds, waists, anas and ears, while handsome gold loops «cure the gaabmak at the back of the head, the hair being lightly drawn from the forehead and tied Into a knot, Grecian taahion. The length oi a silk kommerbund which oircles a lady’s waist is sometimes astonishing; one I saw most have been twelve yards long by eighteen inches broad, and the end was not even then forthcoming. The slippers and shoes are aL (Jabnli make, and are very pret ,y. On a pale green background beantilnl patterns are worked with gold and silver thread and parti colored silk nntil the effect is more like a fairy slipper than one for daily use.- Bat a stoat leathern sole ia pat on, with mgh heels rudely bound with iron, and the work of art is complete, rhe stalls in which their slippers and shoes are made are the gayest in the whole oazar. A Qaboli lady’s foot is small, almost to and the baggy trousers by contrast mike them appear exceedingly pctito/From the few faces seen, and those otnefly of old or passee women, it is difficult to judge of the famed beauty CabuUs are said to boast ot. The children are certainly the prettiest I have ever seen. Their complexions are red and white, with a tinge of olive pervading the skin, eyes black and lustrous, wellshaped features, teeth to make a western beauty envious and bright, intelligent looks that sadly belie the race to which they belong. The Calubi lady journeying is either carried in an elaborate wicker work cage, covered with the inevitable flowing linen, or rides, Am axon fashion, on a pony behind her lord. She is at times coquettish enough to throw warm glances at Ksflrs behind her husband’s back, and is no doubt delighted at the admiration with which her daintily slippered feet are regarded. What the oration of life is of such women in such a country as this may be cammed up in a U-vr words. She must play the part of a mother rather than of a wife, for her sympathies all go with the children left to be brought up in the zenana, and not with their father, whose course lies indifferent lines in the busy, scheming world poGide. That some women cf strong character occasionally share their husband's ambition sal aid him by advice and suggestions, is (fnite true. The mother and wife ofYakoob Khan are both women of ex&ptional ability, influencing and guiding men and well versed la state intrigues. Bat the exceptions are few and only prpye the. general pile obtaining in all Mahomaae dan countries, ’|)&t woman is a cipher ootside the four walls .of fho zenana.— Oorrttf&ndaxe* of th* India* Pipiuer Mail,
Stories of the Sparrows
A nest built by English sparrows was removed from behind one of the shatters of * third-story window on the Penn street frdnt of the Mansion House. The nest was composed of sticks, straws, twigs of trees and rough material ingeniously worked together, while the interior was as soft as elder down, having been cons true ted of feathers, cotton and filaments of silk. The most remarkable feature of this neat, however, ia the fact that it was attached to the shatter by strings, which were entwined around the nest and fastened in such a manner as to displav all the elements of human shill. Unfortunately the neat was not preserved. It would have beea on interesting addition to a collection at natural curiosities. Along the southern wall ot the residence of James JamesoD, Esq ,on North Sixth street, adjoining the Court House, there are some twenty nests which have been built by -English sparrows among the branches of an ivy vi»s- The sparrows have been very nosy for some time in “honse-clean-ing*» had preparing their »e*U for the
summer campaign. They have served flyinguTateiSo 7 with piece, of piece of cotton iTtts'biC andea nowfaS of efforts to leech one of the highest points and caosedtUofrdUo thegroundL *?£ ally In n made bTthe bbrdamp! on the codon, and in a few momenta it was polled to pieces aad each sparrow flew away with a portion. Several Eng. Ush sparrows found n lodging place In n rolled awning in front oft the Goa Bakery on Korth Fifth street, near Washington. Utey entered the awning at the end, and hwd a most secure place during the winter aad spring against cold, wind and storms. In front <3 Mo. 417 Washington street, English sparrows have peeled off all the ban from the dead limbs of n tree, the bark having been used for nest-building. —Reading Times omo Dispatch. A martin who had taken poeeeasion of a bird-box on the property of a citizen of this place sad constructed a neat neat with the view towards raising a family in respectable surrounding, was attacked at his own door by a ruffianly band of English sparrows. The cowardly crew, which outnumbered their victim six to one, fell on him with such vigor that he Was thrown on the ground, prostrate on his back, his eyes blackened, his only salt of clothing ruined, and be would soon been bereft ot life had not the owner of the premises hastened to hie assistance and drove off his assailants. If this thing is pro mi ted to continue the peaceable and orderly portion of the ornithological community, unable to longer endure such treatment, will call an indignation meeting and resolve that they will torn their backs on a town where such proceedings are tolerated. A gentleman who is well acquainted with the characteristic traits of the sparrows says that he hates them like “pizen,” and tnathe>rould contribute any resonable amount from bis private resources toward paving a premium for their distraction, which he hopes may be ordered by our borough fathers at an early "day. The sparrow must go.— West Chester Local Nets*. A short time ago, writes a contributor from Whitby, a friend of mine saw two sparrows—male and female—which evidently had some dispute to settle, as they twittered about each other for some time, then commenced in downright earnestness to fight Being unmolested in this demoralizing game they continued in close combat for several minutes, neither giving in to the other, and to all appearance they had made up their minds to fight until “there was nothing left but their tails.” My friend, having no particular call upon his time, thought he would see the end of the fray, if end there was to be, so he watched the pugnacious bipeds until it was a mutual “give in,” they having fought until they could neither walk or fly. He then quietly walked up and deliberately picked the combatants up, just as he would have picked up any thing lifeless, so powerless were they to get out of his reach.— Land and Water.'
A Story of Fanny Ellsler.
While on the subject of actresses and their habits let me tell you sin anecdote of the celebrated Fanny Ellsler which I have never before seen in type. Her dressingroom was spacious, well ventilated and well furnished, save that the furniture was uniformly powdered with chalk dust Chalk was everywhere—on chain, floors and toilet table. The dancer can n».t do without chalk—it is almost as indispensible aa legs. The soles of her shoes have to be coated with chalk to lend the surface the roughness that gives a grip. Well, one night as the author ot the Diable Boiteux entered Fanny’s loge, he found her storming and panting in a passionate fary most magnificent to behold. “My dear Burnt,” she cried (Burat was her manager,) “1 am in a fearful rage. Just fancy! my passeul is at hand and the corps de ballet have stolen my chalk.” “What, stolen it! Can it be possible?” “Possible ? It is. I have looked everywhere, and questioned every one—Nathalie, Fitz James, Nobelet, her sister—all deny knowing anything about it It’s a conspiracy, that’s clear. Burat you’ll come to the’ rescue and get me some chalk, will you not?” “My dear young lady,” urged M. Burat, “where am 1 to get it ?” ' “Nonsense. Bet out and get it somewhere,” petulautly pleaded the danseuee. “Never mind the cost. You’ve a quarter of an hour before the rising of the curtain. Go, please,' and she pushed him through the door. It was 11 p. m.; the shops, were shut The unfortunate vaudevillist was more embarrassed to discover the desired chalk than be had ever been to invent a plot. Nevertheless, he did not despair. In twelve minutes he came back, his cheeks flushed, his voice thick, a tremor in his gait, but twenty pieces of chalk in his pocket handkerchief. “Bravo! bravo!” gleefully shouted Fanny Ellsler. “How much do 1 owe you f” , “The price of ten glasses of Co-cognac,” hiccoughed Burat. “1 had to patronize ten cases ’fore I could steal all that chalk.” The ready-witted author had appropriated the provision which lay beside each billiard table for chalking cues.— London Correspondence Philadelphia Timet.
An Adroit Swordsman.
Pulaski, as is well known, was as adroit a swordsman as he was perfect in horsemanship, and bs ever rode a powerful and fleet charger. Daring the retreat of the American army through New Jersey, in the darkest hour of oar ns* ional adversity, Pulaski was, with a small party of horsemen, panned by a party of British cavalry, the leader ot which was as good a horseman and mounted nearly at well as Pulaski. Pulaski rode in the rear of his detachment, and the British captain in advance of those he commanded. The morning ban was shining brightly, casting oblique shadows, and as the pnrsuec party entered a long, narrow lane Pulaski, having satisfied himself of the superior ■peed and command of his hone over that of his pursuer, slackened his pace and kept his hone to the side of the lane farthest from the sun. The punning officer came up in not haste, hit swore elevated so as to make the decisive cat upon Pajsski as soon as he could reach him. Pulaski rode gs though he heard not the advance upon him—vCt he kept his eyes fixed warily upon the ground on the side of his hone toward the sun on his right. As soon as he saw the shadow of his panaer’s horse gain upon him, and fonnd that the hone’s head, by the shadow, had gained about half the fength of his own hone’s body he gave the Budaen sword-cut out of St. George,with his powerful apm, and he saw the decapitated head of the English officer follow the stroke. HU mathematics!] eye hud meaepreq the distance by the position of the shadow so accurately, and bU position giving a long back reach to hU right arm, while the cross stroke of his pursuer must have been made at a much shorter distance to haye taken effect, tpat the punning officer lost his head before he suspected that his proximity was known, or That a blow was meditated-
Burying Children Alive.
Recently we hear that a “clootchman" died in giving birth to twins on the reservation. Shorty after her death a discus sionsrose among the Indians as to who should assume die care of the infants. All refused to care lor them, and there being no other wav to dispose of them the Indians buried the babes alive with their dead mother. If this is true it U the most barbarous and inhuman act we ever heard of, and gives th< lie to all ssaeriipns as to the civilization of the Indians on the Yakima reservation. It calls for an immediate jnyeatigation at the hands of the Indian agent, and should fee fail in this respect the whites ot this seetioa will hold him accessory after the fact. He should ferret ogt and punish the authors of this fiendish outrage.— Yakima (IT. T.)

Eighty-eight car-loads of sheep, containing 18,800 head, were shipped from Burlington Station, Wis., last year, mostly high-grade merinos, with a fair share of flne-wooled backs They all went west. There is a large demand* this year, and the number shipped will probably be larger.
Rick Muvrare.—Boil the rice soft and dry. Take one-half cap rice, stir in three spoonfals sagar, piece of batter size ot an egg, and a little salt. One pint sweet milk, one cap yeast, two quarts flour. Let it raise all night If soar in the morning, add a little soda dissolved in milk, and bake in muffin-rings. , The mustard plant, ao small in this country, in the valley of the Jordan is of-' ten ten feet high. Sometimes it is as tall ss a horse and its rider. Its stem is about one inch thick. Small birds, such ss goldfinches and ltnnets, settle among the branches in flocks for the seed, and sometimes much larger birds are seen in these trees. A very pretty ornamental hedge may be obtained by planting sunflower seed two or three inches apart and cultivating the Diants after they make their appearance. It can be made of service in restraining poultry late in the season. Its appearance can be improved by planting morning glories so that the vines will ran over the sunflower stalks. An Indiana farmer tried four different festilizere for melons—poultry; dropping, well-rotted cow manure, barn manure, and old bones (gathered upon the farm and reduced by placing them in alternate layers with ashes the previous year), mixing all llberally'in the different hills, which were eight feet apart each way, and says he raised the greatest crop of melons he ever saw from the hills fertilized with bone dust A farmer on the line between lowa and Missouri has been experimenting with the cow pea as a weed exterm nator, cocklebur and Spanish needles having taken possession of his orchard. He says that sown broadcast the peas will not do it but planted in drills, and cultivated like corn, they will kill out the weeds. The peas he planted were mixed, but mostly the whippoorwill variety. The size of the cows a dairyman may desire for his herd is somewhat a matter of fancy; but other thifigs being equal, when the cost of feeding, etc., is taken into consideration, the medium-sized cows are the most profitable. Cows are machines for making coarse food into that of a more concentrated aad valuable form, and like other machines, there is a size that does this work with the greatest ease, with the least waste, and therefore greatest profit. .
An old teamster of fifty years’ experience says he has never had a case oi the galls upon bis animals where the following preventive was "adopted—namely, to rub the collars inside, eveir few days, with a little neatsfoot oil, and the moment any dirt is found sticking like wax to wash it off with warm soapsuds and then oil. A yoke from oxen, or collar from a horse should not be removed, when brought into the stable from work, until the sweat is entirely dry, aad all chafed spots shoald be oiled. ticAUiOPKD Tomatobs.—Peel the tomatoes and cat in slices one-fourth of an inch thick; pack in a pudding-dish, in alternate layers with a lorcementof bread crumbs, butter, salt, pepper, and a little white sugar, spread thickly on each layer of tomatoes; and when the dish is nearly fall, pat topiatoes uppermost, a good hit of batter on each slice.

Nothing New.
The editor has been shown a carious old volume which contains a passage showing that there is nothing Dew under the moon, in the way of the phonogrape, at least The title reads: “Tne Comics History of the Btstes and Empires of the Worlds of the Moon and the Hun. Writ ten in French hr Cyrano Bergerac. And newly Englished by A. Lovell, A- M m London: Printed for Heniy Rhodes, next door to Swan Tavern, near Bride Lane, in Feet Street, 1807.” This book gives an accout of tbe writer’s travels in the sun and moon. While jnofie of foe cities of the moon, he meets an inhabitant of the son, who had wandered to the moon, and they take a stroll through foe city, discoursing as they go, pleasantly concerning their new surrounding. The citizen of foe son is suddenly called away, and bebefore going gives his companion two books. The writer says; “No sooner was his back turned, but I tpU to consider attentively my hooks and foeir boxes, that’s

Mr. Hamilton, being called to DU a pulpit in a provincial town, wae waited on m the tmtiy just before the service by the pro. •enter of the meeting; the latter laid down a programme which provided for a very start prayer and a shorter sermon, bat several interminably long hymns. Said the presenter: “Oar people sre a peculiar people; we are very fond of music, and plenty of it, and We are net fond of long prayers or lone sermons; in asking yon to eat it short, afr, I wish to emphasise aa before that we are fond of music, because in heaven singing is the chief order of the day!” Mr. Hamilton answered, “It is a comfort, sir, to know that you will not be there to lead Ht” There sre funeral ministers, said Dr. Hall; gentlemen who carry around with them an air of professional solemnity; they cany it even in their hat-bands and pocket handkerchiefs, and look continually as if genteely laid out in their coffins. There was a minister or this sort called on to marry ayoung couple; he stretched out his hands, and unconsciously commenced the burial service. “Sir," spoke up the young man, “we came to be wedded, not buried r To which the gentlemau of the °loth responded, “It won’t be many yean before yon’ll wish you had been buried.’’ Ministers should be men lint, then minis tern —manliness and Godliness are twain qualifications. Then come your fluent ministers. Turn on the faucet and the stream flows. The less they have to say, the bigger the stream and the louder they shout Lyman Beecher, on returning home from church one Sabbath, said that he felt he had done very poorly. Baid one of his boys: “Why, father, I thought you were never in better trim; you just shouted it out to ’em.” “Aye, aye,” replied Mr. Beecher, “that’s It exactly: when I’m not prepared I always holler at the top of my voice.” The doctor told the story of a simple, God-fearing Irish pastor he used to know, in the old country. Each year, he used to go up to the General Assembly, for there every minister is ex-officio a delegate; whenever the time came for making the announcement of this annual vacation, the pastor would give out; “May it pl’ase the congregation nixt Lord day I’ll be vacant!” Leaving it for the wags to make the inquiry whether or no he were not vacant more than one Lord’s day in the year. Such as these are children of nature—simple, unconventional and often splendidly noble men. He well remembered one such, in Ireland—“and,” said Dr. Hall, “although many stories related in this way are not I strictly true, I assure you this one lam ' about to tell you, is.” He said that this simple, poorly paid, but honest and noble- i hearted pastor was riding along one day, and seeing a laborer at work in the fields, whose ragged shirt did not protect his back from the blistering rays of the sun, 1 jumped off his horse, strode over the fence, stripped off his own coat and shirt, and made the astonished laborer put ou the latter; the now shiftless preacher buttoned i his coat to his chin, and disappeared as he bad come, unconßclons that he was in the least transcending his line of exact duty. Dr. Hall said he liked these men; these unconsciously humorous souls, who ’ live nearer heaven than half the rest of mankind.— State Journal'» Report , Moditon, Witcontin. j

During the night three thieves, who had long been waiting for the hogto reach the desired plumpness, determined to execute their design. The sty door was deftly opened, one ot the thieves entered, and hearing a hoarse grunt, said to his accomplice. “The hog is still here!” and he went to seize the hog by the jowl to prevent i*s hue and cry. Bruin, sare-headed by having his night’s rest broken, and this attempt to have gag law put on him, seized the intruder in both paws and gave him such a hug that all his ribs were broken and the breath of life expelled. The second thief, unablo to understand the inaction of his ring leader, steadily advanced in order to see what was doing and to hasten the hog’s departure. The instant he got within the bear’s reach bruin gave him a blow with his paw on his temple and sent him reeling to the door. The third thief now saw that the hog was —was a ghost, or Old Nick, or something worse,and in sheer tright stood transfixed, unable to budge or to do anything but yell,“fire! murder! murder! murder! fire! murder!” which he did with such a will that farmer and showman, with lights, were soon on the spot to pick up the dead rogue and to swaddle the stunned and the scared rogue with ropes and tie him in the barn till daybreak, when they were carried to jail.— ls.

Auntie Mott’s Story.
In 1807 John Harvey lived in Cortlandt street, where many wealthy residents then lived. His wife, Henrietta, sister to Peter Harvey, a widely-known Boston banker, reprimanded a Swedish sailor who boarded near her house, and the man vowed revenge. On the next day Henrietta, her three-year-old child, disappeared, and the sailor was not seen in the neighborhood. He had taken the child away in a boat, and left her on the marsh on Barren Island, with a piece of fat pork in one hand and a biscuit in the other. Nicholas Dooley, who occupied the only house on the island at that time, discovered and adopted her, giving her the name of Julia Ann. At the age of 15 she married Henry Mott, a young resident of Rockaway, and shortly afterward Mrs. Rachel Cowles, who visited the house on a boating excursion, was struck with the young bride’s great resemblance to Mrs. Harvey, whom she knew. Knowing of Mrs. Harvey’s loss, she informed her on returning to the city of her discovery, and that lady identified her daughter by the mark or a halfmoon on one of her knees and a hole in one ear.
Mrs. Mott, says the South Side Observer, is still living with her husband in Westville, L I., where she is familiarly known as Auntie Mott. They had thirteen daughters, but no sons and their grandchildren and great-grandchildren are numerous, Mr. and Mrs. Dooley are dead, but their house still stands. Mrs. Mott remembers Gibbs, the pirate, who is said to have buried his stolen gains on Barren Island. He passed the night at Mr. Dooley’s house before he and Wansley, his associate, were captured on Blum Point. He subsequently confessed his intention to murder the family had not Mr. Dooley remained awake all night with a loaded gun by his side.— New York Sun. . ————♦-●-♦————

False Reasoning.
Suppose a machine should fail to perform its work, and the owner, instead of trying to ascertain the cause of failure and remedy it, should oonclude to run right along, and argue that as the machine had heretofore come around all right it would soon be so again. (If a general and permanent break-down ensued could anybody be blamed but himself? Now, precisely this way do. people act and argue when the “human machine’ is out of order. When the liver is torpid and bowels constipated every one knows that £>r. Pierce’s Pleasant Purgative Pellets afford prompt and permanent relief. Yet some guess tne machine will ootne around a 11 right and do nothing. Could any system of false reasoning be more pernicious ? Suppose the blood be out of order and the pimples, ulcers or running sores, with scrofulous tumors, swellings and general debility, and those thus affected shonld refuse to use Dr. Pierce’s Golden Medical Discovery, guessing that the blood would purify itself, could anybody be blamed but themselves, if a general and permanent break-down of health ensned ?
