MAKUIAGE SUPERSTITION.

Since marriage became an institaIon there have been certain signs and uperstitiona that have clung to Its lebration through all ages and in 11 centuries. Even to-day,In most civlized nations, we have not entirely rid ur minds of these superstitions, and warrant there is never a bride but ndulges herself in looking for some appy omen. Few people are dauntess enough to bo married on Friday, nd we have the most unlimited conIdence In that old shoe thrown after he nowly-wedded pair. Nearly every ride of to-day wears about her when he is married some trifling thing borowed from a lady friend,and all know hat "Jilest is the bride on whom the un doth shine," and are equally ccrain that

To change the name and not the letter la a change for tlie worse and not for the better. So on, quite indefinitely, it is wonerful how these ancient signs are anded down from generation to genratlon, and how Impotent reason is do away with their hold upon the uman mind. Say what you will, we re naturally given to superstitious ears, and thero are the fewest people vho are not more or less affected by hem. But let us recall a few of the lden beliefs concerning marriage uperstitions.

In the earliest weddings we read of impng the Jews wo..llnd that the ourth day of the weok vfas considered he unlucky day for virgins towed and he fifth l'or widows. The llomans ilso believed that certain days were infavoruble for the performance of narrlago rites, and these were the Jalends, Nones and the Ides of every nonth, the wliolo months of February tnd May, and many of their festivals. 11119 was considered the most propiious month of the year for inatrinony,especia lly if the day chosen were hat of the full moon or the conjuncion of the 41111 and moon. The month

May was crfiieeially to be avoided, sit was under the inilucnce of spirits 'verse to happy households, arid for enturies this superstition seemed to re vail in Italy against May maria^ges, and even to this day prevails some parts of England and our own 'ountry. In China marriages are ositivciy prohibited at. certain times ind seasons, 011 account of their beng unlucky.

There was at one time a superstition •urrent in England against marrying Innocents' Day, the 28th of'December, a day of ill omen, because it as the one which commemorated lerod's massacre of the children, nd it is still thought unlucky to arry in Lent. "Marry in Lent and 'ou'U live to repent." An old line lso says, "May never was ye month flove and another, "Who marries tetween ye sickle and ye scythe wiil lover thrive." The old ryhme tliat ,ve have all heard tells us to marry on—

Monday for wuultlit Tufhduy lor hi'ultu,

V^cluos.lay Un l»«*st day of all Thursday K,r rrotinefl, Friday tor lonnes, Saturday no luck ut all.

At one time it was thought that all .vho married on Tuesdays and Thursdays would bo happy. Among the tomans no marriage was celebrated vlthout an augury being llrstconsultd.

In tho Middle Ages it wns consid,red an ill omon if the bridal party in

roing

to the church met a monk,

iriest, hare, dog, cat, lizard or serpent while all would go well if a .volf, spider or toad were encountered.

It is lucky if the initials of a wedded couplo spell a word. In tho south of England it is said to bo unlucky for a bride to loolc 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 tho 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 Mau it is believed that it 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 twelvemonths.

A UittlA'l'HI.VU CAVE.

In the range of mountains in Western North Carolina known as the "Fox Range," 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 unpleasant 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 oft he cave, and the current carries them in. At times, when the

change

A

from inhalation begins, the air

is filled with various hairs of animals not unfrequently bones and whole carcasses are found miles from the place. The air has been known to change materially in temperature during exhalation from quite oool to unpleasantly hot, withering vegetation within reach, and accompanied by a terrible roaring, gurgling sound, like a pot boiling. It is unaccounted for by scientific men who have examined, though no exploration can take place. It is feared by iuauy that a volcanic eruption may break forth there sometime.

TEX THOUSAND MFN IS TIIFIR SHin T-'l AILS.

Incident tlie March on Sh h. Kroro the Chicago Tr.buue. Tho story of "Carson the Srfout," published in the Tribune, lecalls another incident of Gen. Buell's march toward Shilob, which has not, to my knowledge, found place in my history of the War, and yet it had an im|ortant bearing on the result of the battle of Shilob.

GPII William Nelson commanded the Fourth Divisilon of Buell's army. He had eefj a naval officer, and liif tyranny and harshness e*U! his men to dislike him at first, but, as the march southward took the troops into the enemy's countiy, the soldiery perceptions and instincts r.f the old General, as well as his stem fence of duty, and pride in big command, won for him re pert, and a otrange sort "f feeling mat was almost affection.

Nelson wtsa strict disciplinarian, and al&'ayH moved, or went into camp, or left camp, as if in the presence of the enemy, lie njpprin tended, early every morning, the formation of line battle was on his hcrse at the llrst bugle-blast, and rode down the line like a hurricene, expecting every man. officer ut well as private, to bf in hia place, add redy for duty. Men, under training, became uncon-ciously aler: ana em pliatic in uclion. It WHS a standine joke hat Nelson's division could •'tumWe out" quicker than any other. Nelson wat particulac and exacting os to little things, which seemed trifling until the men realized, in thei fiist battle, that all had cor.Mtituted 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 best, canned the men to turn with rare iqjst to the Old Htormcr, and to become rather proud of his oddities and of bin obtrusive individuality. He was a thorough soldier, and was terrible in earnest and theyjfenew it.

Ou the march southward from Nashville, Buell's advance wan delayed bv the destruction of the bridge acroes Duck Kiver. Nel-on fretted under the'delay, protested against it, and finally volunteered to put his division ucoi-s without a bridge, if he were allowed the advance. Permission was given for him to cross, and be issued ona of the -pjeereat military orders on record. This wa9 read to the troop* in the morning, and was in substi.nce like this: The men will march to ttie river, fix bayonets and stack arm- They will then take off their pants, blouses and accoutre ment^, putting all in a bundlo, which wi'l be placed on tho bayonet. They will then take arms, and, with bundles ou the bayonet as ordered, will wade the river in their «hirt.s and drawers. Officers will see that there is no confusion, and tbat on reaching the farther bank the men dress quickly and march rapidly forwaid 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 tlieir shirtf- aud, in view of the entire population of Columbia, men, women and children, they, with cheers and shouts, aud jokes aud 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 that date ami the tiattle of $hiloh.

During tbe march, Nelson was fuming and storming about slowness and early on the morning of the first attack ou Grant's forces at Pittsburg Lauding, had hurried his troops into line and had marched southward on his own responsibility. Men remember to this day the face of Nelton 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. Wheu Grant's messenger met him, his men were hurrying forward and, when Carson outlined the situation, Nelson thundered out. "We knew it, sir, and we are moving. Carry your message to those behind us."

After this the men saw Nelson at his best. He dropped his cll'ensively 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 (his 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 calf out a new devotion to their bluff old leader. He called the men gentlemen, did not swear once, and his ever-ready "Gotohellsir" was forgotten. His'ory tells how the division went into but!e, ard how well they did their du'y but the strong individuality of Nelson, his prescience, energy, and readiness were better illustrated by the crrs*ing of Duck River than by his splen* did battle record. He understood the needs of the hour, and met tbeno with a rude, Imperious emphasis that compelled admiration. Had his men not waded Duck River in their shirts, Buell's army would not bave been within call to turn the tide at Shilob.

CONSUMPTION CUBED! An old physician, retired from active practice, having bad placed in his hands by an East India Missionary, the formula of asimple Vegetable Remedy for the speedy and permanent care of Consumption, Bronchitis, Catarrh, Asthm& and all throat and lung affections, also a positive and radical cure for nervous debility and all nervooa oomplaints, after having thoroughly tested its wondertnl curative powers in thousands of cases, feels it bis duty to make It known to bis suffering fellows. Actuated by this motive, and a conscientious desire to relieve human suffering, he will send (free of charge) to all who desire it, this receipt, with full directions for preparing and successfully using. 'Sent by return mail by addressing with stamp, naming this paper.

Centaur

Liniments.

So nearly perfect are the recipes is these wonderful pain-soothing and. bealing Centaur Liniments, that we can confidently nay they will ALLEVI ATK ANY PAIN arrising from flesh ,bone or muscled rangemeats. We do not pretend tbat they will mend a broken teg or EXTERMINATE BOILS, but even in such cases they will reduce the inflamation and stop the pain. Nor can we guarantee the proper results where the body is POISONED BY WBISKY. Temperance is necessary to a proper physical, as mental condition.

THE WHITE CENTAUR LINIMENT to particularly adapted t« all cases of RHEUMATISM, Lumbago, Neuralgii Erysipelas, Itcb, Sprinee, Cbiliblains, Cots, Bruises. Stints, Poisons, Scalds, Scatica, Weak Back, Pains in tho aide Wounds, Weeping Sinews, EURNS, Frosted Feet, PALSY. Ear-ache, Toothache, Head-ache, Ulcer*. Old Sor a, Rroken Breasts, Sore Nipples, Sore Tin oat. Croup, Diptheria, etc. The The most of these compUints the Centaur Liniment will curt all of thorn it will benefit. It will EXTRACT the poison Irom bites and stings, and will cure UURNS AXT SCALDS without a car. The following is but a sample of a thousand similar testimonials: '•ANTIOCH, III,, Deel, 1874. '•My wife has for a long time, been a terrible sufferor from Kbeumatism. She has tried many physcians and many remedies. The only thing wbich has niven ber relief is Centaur Linimeut. I am rejoiced to say this has cured her.

W. M. RING, Postmaster."

It is an indisputable fact that the Qentaur Lioimenc tifect performing euros never before are ed by any preparation in existance,—-like Chronic Kheumatiom of thirty years' standing, straightening lingers and joints which had been stiff for six years, taking the soreness from burns, fcc.

One dollar, or eaven fifty cents, invested in Centaur Liniment will bo withiu reach when an accident occurs, and will do more good than any amount of money paid for medical attendance, When phvsciaus are called they frequently use this Linimeut, and of course charge several prices for it. The Yellevr Centaur Linimeut 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-Ev 1, are little less tban marvellous.

Messrs. J. McClure & Co., Drucgists, 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 tbey have ever used. We sell as high as lour or five dozen bottles per month to ownors of horses and mules."

We have volumes of testimonials describing cures of Sprains, Kicks, Galls, Pool-Evil. Big-head and even Founders, which are little less tban 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.

Sold everywhere, but prepared only 'at the Laboratory of J. B. Ro*e & Co., 43 DEY ST., NEW YORK.

Castoria.

Cross, s-ickly babies and children mny ei joy health, and mothers have rest, tbey will use Castoria. Worms, feverless, teething, wind colic, sour ntomach and undigested food make children cross, and produces sickness.

Cttstoria will assimilate tho food, expel worms, and correct all these ihiog*. For twenty years Dr. Pitcher experimented in bis private practice to produce an elective Cathartic and stomach regulator which would be as effective at Castor oil, without its un pleasant taste or recoil.

The reputation of his experimeut extended. Physcians and nurses ri'pidly adopted his remedy, to which he gave he name of Castoria.
