MARRIAGE SUPEKSTITIOXs.

Since marriage became an institution there have been certain signs and superstitions that have clung to its celebration through all ages and in all centuries. Even to-day,in most civilized nations, we have not entirely our minds of these superstitions, ana I warrant there is never a bride but Indulges herself in looking for some happy omen. Few people are dauntless enough to be married on Friday, and we have the most unlimited confidence in that old shoe thrown after the newly-wedded pair. Nearly every bride of to-clay wears about her when she is married some trifling thing borrowed from a lady.friend.and all know that "Blest is the bride on whom the sun doth shine," and are equally certain that

To change the name and not the letter la a change for the worse and not lor the better.

So on, quite indefinitely, it is wonderful how these ancient signs are handed down from generation to generation, and how impotent reason is to do away with their hold upon the human mind. Say what you will, we are naturally given to superstitious fears, and there are the fewest peoplo who are not more or less affected by them. But let us rccall a few of the olden beliefs concerning marriage superstitions.

In the earliest weddings we read of among the Jews we find that the fourtji day of the week was considered the unlucky day for virgins to wed and the fifth for widows. The Romans also believed that certain days were unfavorable for the performance of marriage rites, and these were the Calends, Nones and the Ides of every month, the whole months of February and May, and many of their festivals. Jung was considered the most propitious month of the year for matximony,especially if the day chosen were that of the full moon or the conjunction of the sun and moon. The month of May was especially to be avoided, as it was under the influence of spirits adverse to happy households, and for centuries this superstition seemed to prevail in Italy against May marriages, and.even to this day prevails in some parts of England and our own countyy. In China marriages are positively prohibited at certain times and seasons, on account of their being unlucky.

There was at one time a superstition current in England against marrying on Innocents' Day, the 28th of December, a day of ill omen, because it was the one which commemorated Herod's massacre of the children. And it is still thought unlucky to marry in Lent. "Marry in Lent and you'll. live to rei)ent." An old line also says, "May never was ye month of love and another, "Who marries between ye sickle and ye scythe will never thrive." The old ryhme that we have all heard tells us to marry on—

Monday for wealth,

Tuesday tor li'.-altli, Wednesday the best, day of all Thursday lor crostje.-i,

Friday li.r losses,

Saturday no luck at all.

At one time it was thought that all who married on Tuesdays and Thursdays would be happy. Among the Romans no marriage was celebrated without an augury being first consulted.

In the Middle Ages it was considered ah ill omen if the bridal party in going to the church met a monk, priest, hare, dog, cat, lizard or serpent while all would go well if a wolf, spider or toad were encountered.

It is lucky if the initials of a wedded couple Bpell a word. In the south of England it is said to be unlucky for a bride to look in the glass after she is completely dressed before she goes to- the church so a glove, or some other article, is put on after the last look has been taken at the mirror. Gray horses at a wedding are lucky. It is supposed to be unlucky if a wife does not weep on her wedding day. In Scotland it is considered an unhappy omen if a couple are disappointed in getting married on the day first fixed for that purpose.

In the Isle of Man it is believed that at insures good luck to carry salt in the pocket when going to be married. At Hull it is considered unlucky to go in at one door and go out at another when a person gets married.

Whoever goes to sleep first on the wedding night will die first. If there is an odd number of guests at a wedding one is sure to die within the succeeding twelve months.

A BltKATIlUSU CAVE.

In the range of mountains in Western North Carolina known as the "Fox Rangei" a most singular phenomenon exists. It is a "breathing cave." In the Summer months a current of air comes from it so strongly that a person can't walk against it, while in the Winter the suction is just as great. The cool air from the mountains in Summer is felt for miles in a direct line from the cave. At times a most odor is emitted upon the current from the dead carcasses of animals sucked in and killed by the violence. The loss of cattle and stock in that section in Winter is accounted for in this way: They range too near the mouth of t.he cave, and the current carries them in. At times, when the change from inhalation begins, the air is filled with various hairs of animals not ^infrequently bones and whole carcasses are found miles from the place The air has been known to change materially in temperature during exhalation from quite cool to unpleasantly hot, withering vegetationwithiri reach, and accompanied by a terrible roaring, gurgling sound, like pot boiling. It is unaccounted for by scientific men who have examined, though no exploration can take place. It is feared Iby many that a volcanic eruption may break forth there'sometime.

TEN* THOUSAND MEN IS THEIR SHI.IT-TALLS. Centaur

Incident of the March on SJrlnh. From llie Chicago Tribuae. Tho story of "Carson the Scout," published in the Tribune, lecalls another incident of Gen. Buell's inarch toward Sbiloh, which has not, to my knowledge, found place in any history of the War and yet it had au important bearing on the result of the battle of Sbiloh.

GPU William Nelson commanded the Fourth Divisiion of Raeil's army. I-Ie had 1 een a naval officer, and his tyruuuy and harshness caua-d his men to" dislike him at first, but, as the march southward took the troops into the enemy's country, the soldieiy perceptions and instincts of the old General, as wel! as his stern sense of duty and pride in bis command, won for him mpeef, and a ."..range sort of feeling that was almost affection.

JNeJson wssa strict disciplinarian,, aud always moved, or went into camp, or left camp, £S if in the pres*ence of the enemy. He superintended, early every morning, the formation of line cf battle was on his hr.rse at the first bugle-blast, and rode down the line like a hnrricene, expeering every man, officer as well as private, to t«i in his place, add rendy tor duty. Men, under training, became uueotnciously aien ami em phatic in action. It WHS a standing joke lhat Nelson's division could "tumble out" quicker tliau any other. Nelson was particular and exacting s.s to little things, which seemed trifling until the men realized, in thei fiist battle, that all had constituted a part of their training for battle. The realization that their commander had seen with clearer vision than they, and that he bad compelled them to do what was besl, caused the men

N

to turn with rare

trust to the Old Stormer, aud to become rather proud of his oddities and of his obtrusive individuality. He was a thorough soldier, and was terrible in earnest and theyjknew it.

On the march southward from Nashville, Buell's advance was delayed by the destruction of the bridge across Duck River. Nelson fretted under the delay, protested against it, and finally volunteered to put his division aco.«s without a. bridee, if he were allowed the advance. Permission was given for him to cross, and he issued ono of the queerest military orders on record. This was read to the troops in the morning, and was in suhsi&nee like this: The men will march to the river, fix bayonets and stack arm*. Tliey will then take off their pants, blouses and accoutre tuents, putting all in a bund 19, which wi'l he placed on the bayonet. They will then take arms, and, with bundles on the bayonet as ordered, will wade fhe river in their shirts and drawers. Officers will see that there is no coufusion, and that on reaching the further bank the men dress quickly and march rapidly forward to restore the circulation.

Imagine the looks of eight or ten thousand men as this order was read to them on a cool, bright spring morning, They marched down to the river they undressed to their shirts aud, in view of the entile population of Columbia, men, women and children, they, with cheeis and shouts, and jokes and laughs, plunged into the cold water. The scene wa ludicrous in the extreme but in not very many hours the entire division was marching southward. It kept the advance during the interval between Lhat d.tte and the !attle of Sbiloh.

During tb« march, Nelson was fuming and storming about slowness and early on the morning of the first attack on Grant's forces at Pittsburg Landing, had hurried his troops into line and had marched southward on his own responsibility. Men remember to this day the face of Nelson on that march. His mutterings were of impending danger and when bis ear caught the sound of artillery he urged the men to greater efforts. When Grant's messenger met him, his men were hurrying forward and, when Carson outlined the situ® ation, Nelson thundered out. "We knew it, sir, and" we are moving. Carry your message to those behind us."

After this themeu saw Nelson at his best. He dropped his offensively arrogant manner he spoke tenderly, almost gushingly, of the army in front, and of the honcr of the old flag, and, when his first brigade had crossed the Tennessee, and he came on foot(bis horse could not be taken in the boat crowded with men), his tones and words were such as to instill a naw courage into their hearts, and to call out a new devotion to their bluff old leader. Hecalled the men gentlemen, did not swear once, and bis ever-ready "Gotohellsir'" was forgotten. Bis'ory tells how the division went into bittle, and how well they did their duty .but the strong individuality of Nelson, his prescience, energy, and readiness were better illustrated by the cresting of Duck River tb»n by his splen did battle record. He understood the needs of the huur, and met then with a rude, imperious emphasis that compelled admiration. Had his men not waded Duck River in their shirts, Buell's army would not have been within call to turn the tide at Shiloh.

It is an indisputable fact that th9 Oentaur Liuiinenc effect performing CUTGS never before are ed by any preparation in existance,—like Chronic Rbeumatiom of thirty years' standing, straightening fingers and joints which had been stiff for six years, taking the soreness from burns, fcc.

One dollar, or eaven fifty cents, investod.in Centaur Liniment will be within reach when an accident occurs, and will do more good than any amount of money paid for medical attendance, When physcians are called they frequently use this Linimeut, and of course charge several prices for it. The Yellew Centaur Liniment is adapted to the tough skin, muscles and flesh of the animal creation. Its effects upon severe cases of Spavin. Sweeny, Wild-Gall, Big-Head and Poll-Evil, are little less than marvellous.

Messrs. J. McClure fc Co., Druggists, cor. Elm and Front Streets, Cincinnati, O., say: '•In our neighborhood a number of teamsters are using the Centaur Liniment. They pronounce it superior to anything they have ever used. We sell as high as four or five dozen bottles per month to owners of horses aud mules."

We have volumes of testimonials describing cures of' Sprains, Kicks, Galls, Pool-Evil, Big-head and even Founders, which are little less than marvels. No owner of an animal can afford to be without a bottle of Centaur Liniment, which any day may prove worth twenty times its cost.

Castoria.

CroSS, SiClTljr "twibioii and mny enjoy health, and mothers have rt J, it tney will use Castoria. Worms, fevi-rless, teething, wind colic, sour stomach and undigested food make children cross, and produces, sickness.

Castoria will assimilate the food, pxpei worms, and correct all these thing*. For twenty years Dr. Pitcher experimented in his private practice to produce an effective Cathartic and stomach regulator which would be as effective as Castor oil*, without its un plersant. taste or recoil.

The reputation of his experiment extended. Physciar.s and nurses rupidly adopted his remedy, to which he gave he name of Castoria.
