FARM, GARDEN AND HOUSEHOLD.
Rest Ts. Manure for Our Land.
A correspondent says: Through the
best farming sections of our country
farmers are keeping their lands almost
continually under tillage and crops, as
though they supposed that the only way
to obtain any profit from them. And
now they are being put to their wits'
ends to know how to keep up the fer
tility of these lands. They will, of
cuui&w, use au me manure mey can get,
but that is only a limited amount, so
they will next buy some commercial fer
tilizer to stimulate their lands to keep
on growing tilled crops, as though to
abandon them would be to abandon
farming.
Now the best tiling that can be done
for most of these lands is to give them
rest, and while resting from such crops
as they had previously been growing,
they might return a fair income as
meadow or pasture lands if properly
seeded down; and to Ho in turf for a year
or two is such a rest and change from
continual tillage that when plowed again
such land is found to be in about the
best condition for any crop, though to
spread a good coat of manure on this
turf the fall- l>efore plowing would be
still better. Snch a fresh-broken turf is
called in England "new ground," and it
seems to renew the life and fertility of
the soil to rest under a clean turf for a
time.
In a rotation of crops, land will find
partial rest by growing a different kind
of crop each year ot the course. Jtsut 11
the plan of rotation requires one or two
years lying to clover or grass, so much
the better. If a three years' course be
adopted, have for the first year a hoed
crop, the next grain, and seed to clover
or timothy. Or for a five years' course,
first year plant corn or potatoes, next
year barley or oats, third year wheat or
rye, and seed to clover and grass, fourth
year mow, and fifth year pasture. This
course will give very fair rest for the
land, for, though it is oontrary to phil
osophy and theory, we find in practice
that our cultivated lands improve while
seeded down for a year or two, though
wo even cut two crops of clover in a year
and take off from the ground. A neigh
Dor nas i or years carried on two systems
of rotation on his farm, by which he is
almost assured of good crops and a good
fair income, with a comparatively light
expense of labor, and his land apparent
ly growing richer year after year. He
adopts the five years' course described
above for fields near the barn. But for
those lying too far olf to draw the ma
nure upon readily, he has a three years'
course?two years to clover and one to
wheat, and he says that for a number of
years his crops from this have been over
thirty bushels of wheat an acre, except
the last, which was twenty-eight bushels.
On a field by the side of this, on another
farm, of equally good soil naturally, till
ed and cropped in the usual way, the
average for the same years has only been
about fifteen bushels of wheat per acre
every oiner year, ana tae iaua growing
no better. This shows that it mil bare
ly pay this farmer to grow his fifteen
bushels to the acre; the other farmer,
with his thirty bushels, would have fif
teen bushels as clear profit, or income,
and for the year it is lying to clover it is
sure to pay as pasture or mowing lands.
And by keeping much of his ground
seeded down he can obtain much ma
nure, and by plowing up les3 each year
can manure it heavier, insuring good
crops, at less expense to the bushel, and
requiring less labor to manage the whole
farm than if run more exclusively to
grain.
I have also seen a great improvement
of land by its resting in a field so over
run with quack grass that no one wanted
to undertake to till it, so it had leave to
lie two or three years to grass, which
was mowed vearlv: bnt when this was
f)lowed, planted, and tilled bo thorough
y as to snbdue the quack, it grew large
crops, and the soil was evidently richer
and in a higher state of fertility than it
had been for years before. Now, if fann
ing will pay better by having our lands
richer, and if we can make them richer
by giving them more rest in lying well
seeded to grass or clover, and thus liav- i
ing more manure to use on the land we i
do till, would it not pay better to give !
them this rest ?
Ilouaehold Hints.
To Use Cold Boiled Ham.?When a
ham has been a long time boiled and is
becoming dry, cut some thin slices, dip
in egg and bread crumbs, and fry quick
ly serve immediately.
Cookies.?One cup butter or drip
pings, one and a half cup of sugar, one
half cup sour milk, one teaspoonful of
soda, one teaspoonful of salt, and flour
enough to roll; make quite soft.
Cobn Bread.?One quart of wheat
Ana nnfTaaMin fnll r\f ttaIIato m^fll I
UULUj Vuo WUVVWU^/ iUU VI JUiiVTT UlVtU)
one pint of milk, four eggs, three table
spoonfuls of melted butter, two tea
spoonfuls of soda or yeast powder, one
small teacup full of sugar.
Corn Starch Cake.?One and one
half cups sugar, one-half cup butter, one l
and one-half cups of flour, one-half cup
corn starch, one-half oup sweet milk,
one teaspoonful cream of tartar, one-half
teaspoonful soda, the whites of six eggs,
a little mace or nutmeg.
To Preserve the Color of Calicoes.
?Before washing almost any colored '
fabrics, it is recommended to soak them ;
for some time in water to every gallon
of which is added a spoonful of ox gall, j
A teacup of lye in a pail of water is said j
to improve the color of black goods, i
when it is necessary to wash them. A
strong clean tea of common hay will pre
serve the color of French linens. Vine
gar in the rinsing water, for pink or
green, will brighten those colors, and
soda answers the same end for both pur
ple and blue. The colors of the above
fabrics may be preserved by using a
strong milk warm lather of white soap,
and putting the dress into it, instead of
rubbing it on the material, and stirring
into a first and second tub of water a
large tablespoonful of ox galL
Txa Biscuit.?One quart of sifted
flour and a piece of butter, or lard, the
Mze ui uxjl egg ; a utile sail; ruu tuem
well into the flora ; then add two heap
ing teaspoonfuls of baking powder, and
mix well with the dry flour ; take one
pint of good sweet milk and mix jnst
soft enough. to roll out, cut nioelv with
a tin biscuit oatter, and bake from ten
v to fifteen minutea in a hot oven, and
they will be as light as fuaci.
To Test Beep, Etc.?Gooo^beef is
soft, fine, and of an agreeable red cOktt^
lightly streaked through with white i
veins. If the fat is of yellowish white
j it is a sign of youth and tenderness.
The best steak is what is called porter
house steak. Ribs of beef are generally !
' considered best for roasting. Chickens,
- j to be very good, should be picked dry |
''''$? * 83 800n as '? ttair tenderness may ;
*<^ be tested by the flexibility of their joints '
and by the whiteness of their skins.
Southern Corn Cake fob Break
past.?One pint of buttermilk, or if this
cannot be had, use sour milk, in which
case add one large tablespoonful of but
ter, next add one tablespoonful of salera
tus dissolved in warm water, and two
egg3 well beaten. Mix the ingredients
well, and add one pint ofcorn meal, j
Bake well in a quick oven. A. little salt
is needed if butter is not used.
Acorn Coffee. ' . .
In Germany " acorn coffee " is wed, i
and greatly liked, as asubstituto forordi- j
nary coffee, and ic? considered to be very
strengthening for consumptive people
and delicate children. The aooras are
gathered in autumn, when they are ripe,
shelled, and, after beiDg cut into pieces I
of the sire of coffee berries they are thor-!
oughly dried in front of the tire, or in a
cool oven . They ore then roasted like
ordinary coffee, until they become a cin-,
namon-brown color. Immediately after 1
roasting the acorns arc ground or pound-!
ed in a mortar, to prevent their becom
ing tongh. While the coffee is being !
ground or ponnded a very little butter |
is added, and the coffee is then placed
in air-tight bottles. "For ohlldren, pre
pare in the same way as ordinary "eof&e,
using a quarter of au ounce to a pint of
water, adding milk and sugar to taste.
Young children should take it -with two
or three parts of milk. For adults, half
an ounce of the coffee to a pint of water.
Acorn ooffee and ordinary coffee are fre
quently mixed, and the docoction is
found very palatable. In their raw state
acorns are known to bo powerfully as
tringent, but they lose this quality in
the process of roasting. In some re
spects acora coffee is preferable to cof
fee proper, having none of the drying
properties attributed to the latter.
Orchard Gras?.
Says a correspondent: I have had
some five or sis yeara' experience with
orchard grass, and Ilook upon it as one
of the best pasture grasses, if not the
very best, in this region at least. It is
as tenacious as, and much more abund
ant in the field than, the blue grass. As
a hay crop I don't, as yet, think much
of it, but my experience in this respect
nw.?ll Ti rvVitanow
Uita uccu r>uiun. xi >wiuu ?"*j
pretty well as a hay crop for home con
sumption, if cut when the bloom first
begins to show, and then again in the
middle or latter part of Sept-ember. The
stems are too coarse and hard if left to
the seed. Always sow in the spring,
about the time of sowing oats, and al
ways plow as for any spring crop and
harrow in thoroughly. It is just as
necessary that it should be thoroughly
covered with soil. I always sow thirty
five pounds per acre when sowing alone;
twenty to twenty-five pounds when sow
ing with clover.
A New Scale.
A farmer correspondent sends us an
excellent wrinkle for finding the weight
of horses or steers without scales. He
says: Make a weighing stall about three
feet wide with a level floor. In the lat
ter make a recess for the platform of the
scales bo that the platform will be flush
with the planking. Now lead your horse
or steer into the stall so that the forefeet
of the animal rest on the platform and
note the weight. Start him ahead until
his hind feet are on the platform; note
the weight again. Add the two weights
thus taken, and the sum will be the total
weight of the animal."
An Old-Time Mystery.
The following story is now told as a
sequel to the noted Burdell murder of
many years ago:
Capt. William Jdyde started in me as
a clerk many years ago, in what was then
a humble little tobacoo store in New
city. He fell in lovo with a New York
girl, and was engaged to be married to
her; but she jilted him, and the dis
consolate boy left the city, and for a
number of years was believed to be
dead. His cruel sweetheart had mar
ried a Mr. Cunningham, a name that will
be forever associated wiih one of the
most mysterious murders ever reoorded
in the annals of crime. She became, in
short, the Mrs. Cunningham in whose
house in Bond street Dr. Burdell was
murdered, and who was tried for the
crime and acquitted.
Young Hyde shipped aboard a whaler
bound for the Pacific, served his time,
engaged in the pearl fishery in the gulf
of California, and at last settled in the
old town of Loreto, the ancient capita?
of the Californias, when he married a
native woman, who died soon afterward.
About this time he discovered a copper
mine in the high mountain known as
"La Giganta " just back of Loreto, and
for a time busied himself in developing
its resources. He might have been
working there still, but for an un
fortunate and no less singular circum
stance that again changed the current of
his li'e, and again sent him a wanderer
out into the wide world.
At the close of the .rial of Mrs. Cun
ningham, she disappeared from New
York, and various were the surmises in
regard to her abouts. She was frequent
ly seen, according to the reports, in a
dozen places at the same time, but could
never be fully identified; and her death
was so often announced that many peo
ple began to doubt whether she ever had
an existence. The truth is that, taking
a son and a daughter with her, she went
to Lower California, and at Loreto met
Capt. Hyde. The intimacy of bygone
jeuro wtw iuudwcu, uuu m uuc ullio tuoj
were married. The marriage proved an
unhappy one, and poor Capt. Hyde fled
to another part of the State, leaving his
mine in charge of a superintendent, a
Mexioon. Shortly after the old man's
disappearance his wife ran away with
the superintendent, and sold the mine
for a large sum. The company who
bought it having failed to comply with
the Mexioan mining laws, the property
was confiscated by the State. Mrs.
Cunningham's children then made a de
mand for it. .It was transferred to them
and is now in their possession. The son
and daughter stiil reside at Loreto, a
miserable out-of-the-way place of less
than a hundred inhabitants. It was
once, however, a large city, but was de
stroyed by an earthquake many years
ago. There are several fine ruins in and
about the place that prove it to have
been at one time a lordly city.
Young Cunningham supports himself
and his sister by working a small ranche.
She lives in the village with her child.
She was never married, and in the hag
gard woman of thirty-five, old long be
fore her time, there is no trace of "the
beautiful young girl who played so con
spicuous a part in the great mystery of a
few years ago. The old man gained a
scanty subsistence by teaching here and
there, and finally settled at Purissima, a
small village above Magdalena bay, near
the cuter ooast. Here he died. When
last heard from Mrs. Cunningham was
living in luxury in California.
Stealing Cattle in Texas,
One of the greatest sources of trouble
on the Texas-Mexican border is to be
found in the fact that very many of the
raiders are renegade Texans, who, when
driven across the river, claim Mexican
citizenship, which is of course readily
granted; they thus avoid the extradition
laws. When Col. McNelly had the fight
at Palo Alto,-in which eighteen of the
[ tbieves were ti led, eignt 01 tnem were
discovered to be native Texans, who h:d
joined; the ranks of the raiders for pur
poses of plunder and gain. Of course
they are readily reoeived among these
bandits, as they are well posted as to. the
best localities to seek for prey. When
ever a grand raid is made, the crossing
is generally effected in the neighbor
hood of the mountains, and after com
pleting a sort of semi-circle, sometimes
going within a very short distance of
Corpus Christi, they return to the river
and recross, almost under the very walls
of Ringgold barracks. Th-) object of
these raids is not the securing of the cat
tle for food or sale, but for the purpose
of getting their hides, and the military
claim that if even a stricter watch were
iropfrrpnn the border the thieves would
Kill the cattle when taken, and strip the
hides off there, thus rendering their es
cape easier and less fraught with clanger
to themselves. -
Did not Like Dogs.
Among Andersen's peculiarities was a
mortal fear of dogs. He once wrote to
an intimate friend residing in Geneva
that he meant to come aud pay him a
visit, and would arrive on a certain day.
The family possessed a large but per
fectly gentle and very intelligent New
foundland dog, which, in anticipation of
line poet s visit, was carenuiy cnamea
up. The day appointed for Lis arrival
came, but no Andersen made his appear
ance. Days and -weeks succeeded, and
still he did not come. At last the
family received a letter from him, post
marked Nice. V Dear friends," he
wrote, "I arrived at your house on the
day I stated, but when I got to the gate
I saw such a big dog in the yard that I
did not dare go in, and so I took the
first train to Italy."
v Presidential Term.
The United States House committee
on the judiciary reported a proposed
amendment to the Constitution of the
United States as follows :
"No person who has held or may
hereafter hold the office of President
shall ever again l>e eligible to said of
fice.". 0.v .
Mr. Fry?, on behalf of the minority of
tne committee, proposed a substitute
for the report o?*the majority, as fol
lows : 1 . ...
"From and after March 4,3885, the
term of office as President and Vice
President of the United States Bhall be
six years, and any person having been
elected to and held the office of Presi
dent, or for two years having held that
office, shall be ineligible for ra-election." 1
RANCH LIFE II COLORADO.
Sheep Railing as a BnMnem'on the West
ern Pralrlo.
Sheep raising in one of the great in
terests of Colorado, writes a Sun corre
spondent. Mexican ewes are bonght
for ?1.75 to $2 per head, and crossed
with Cotswolds to increase the size.
South Downs a^d fall Merinos are
brought from the States to improve the
blood and bring the wool up to the finer
grades. The grasses of the prairie are
nutritious, and tne abundance of space
allows vast herds to find maintenance
without the expense of fencingor cutting
hay for the winter. There are several
varieties of grass that follow one another
in succession, some curling in the sun,
and although brown and dry at the top,
remaining full of nourishment. Near
Trinidad a gentleman found in an acre
of prairie sixteen different kinds of grass.
| The pinons, a low species of pine and
cedar, grows near the edges of the
canyon, and affords protection for the
I sheep from the storms. In the canyons
the sheep find water. These are deep,
open seams in the earth, or rock, riven
apart ages ago by some mighty convul
i sion of nature. They are filled with
j underbush, evergreens, wild plnm
trees, and cottonwood, and generally
have water holes, and sometimes springs
of pure water. In times of long rains,
or of snow melting on the mountains,
they are found with swift, muddy
streams. They are wild and romantic
in appearance and of various depths,
some even reaching on the rivers 2,000
feet. One man can care for a flock of
1,000 sheep, but two are required for
more than that number?on% to super
vise, keep the camp, cook, and watch
the sheep at night, while the other herds
them by day, the latter receiving from
I $12 to $15 per month and rations, and
; the former getting from $20 to $25 per
month. If the owner cares for H* own
; sheep ho of course saves this aiuount

' the vigilance of ownership.
Some sheep men spend the larger part,
i if not all their time in camp, moving
j wherever the pasture is most inviting, in
| winter on the prairie and in summer on
i the mountains or in one of tho national
parks. As two men can herd 4,000
sheep a3 well as 2,000, the cost of run
ning large herds is not proportionately
great. More hands are needed in the
lambing season, and when shearing is
necessary, professed shearers must be
hired to cut the fleece. The preference
is given to California shearers, they
j handling the sheep better and shearing
j oloser than Mexicans. The Californian
j holds the sheep with one hand, between (
| his knees, and shears with the other, {
J while the Mexican ties and throws down i
the sheep, sitting on them, and fre- t
! quently cutting the skin. The Mexican j
| gets five cents a fleece, the Californian j
I six cents. The average weight of Mexi- j
can fleece is two and one-half pounds, ,
and sells at from twenty to twenty-five j
cents per pound. The average weight
of improved wool per fleece is from three
to four pounds, and sells from twenty- j
fivfi to tnirtv cents Der Dound. There i
is a difference of opinion with regard to
shearing sheep before or after the birth
of the lambs, which are born in early
spring, about May. If shearing takes
place after the weather gets hot, the
] wool, having absorbed much grease,
! weighs heavier and is therefore more
i profitable to the seller. Lambs are
j taken from their mothers in September
i and formed with the wethers into a
! separate herd, seeking their own main
tenance. They are driven out before or
after the sheep in early morning, with a
herder, till they are thoroughly weaned,
requiring about four or live months, i
i 11 x_ i_l t 1
wuen sney are again unueu iu me large

The homes of people in this country
are called ranches. They are generally
bailt of logs or adobe and sometimos of
both. The adobe is formed of a peculiar
kind of earth, found in the canyons and
other localities, and when mixed with
cut hay and water forms a mud that
hardens with exposure to sun, wind and
rain. The process of making adobe mud
is usually performed by Mexicans, who
cut the hay into short lengths, and beat
the whole mass of earth, hay and water
with a hoe, and also tread it thoroughly
with their naked feet. Both men and
women apply it to the logs by throwing
large haudfuls, worked into balls, on the
wall, and then smooth it with their
hands?a dirty process, but resulting in
I an even, flat surface, resembling a gray i
| stone, which will, but seldom does, re- 1
j oeive a coat of whitewash. Another stylo
j of ranch is formed of adobe bricks, the i
mud being mixed in the above manner ]
and burnt in the sun, and being set up
like ordinary bricks, the same mud while <
; wet answering the purpese of .'mortar. ]
! The whole, including the roqf and chim- j
ney, is covered with adobe. There are i
also wooden cottages, with shingle roofs, ;
but they are very expensive, the lumber i
being hauled by ox teams. The ranch 1
! is oiten composed 01 only one room, i
| where all the housekeeping flourishes in :
I the most approved bachelor's style, the
larger proportion of ranch people being <
young men seeking their fortunes. They ]
ignore luxuries, and the appointments <
of the kitchen are marvelously few. A
coffee mill and coffee pot, a frying pan, ]
a tea kettle, a baking kettle, a few tin i
plates and tin cups, knives, forks and :
6poons, a broom, a lamp, a pile of blan
! kets, bags of flour, salt and sugar, and \
I a wde of bacon complete the contents of ]
a bachelor ranch. I might add saddles, <
Bpurs, Bhoes, and other articles of wear,
and occasionally a pack of cards and a
flask of whisky. Some ranches are built
on a more extensive scale and have sep- 1
arate rooms for sleeping and cooking;
aiso sneas ior wagons ana norses, cnicK- 1
eD coops, and corn cribs for those -who :
wish to feed their horses, and all have ]
corrals made of pickets cat by the Mexi
cans at two cents apiece, or built of ,
rocks from the canyons or logs of cotton- ]
wood or pine. Some hew down the j
pinons and with the brush make impene- ,
trable corrals.
Sheds are necessary for shearing, and |
dipping pans are a valuable acquisition, j
Bince the scab imported with the States ,
sheep and lice brought in the dry wool
of the Mexican sheep are almost the only ;
diseases to contend with, and these are i
cured by dipping in a decoction ex
posed of five pounds of sulphur and -
twenty pounds of tobacco, boiled in one
hundred gallons of water till the strength j
of the tobacco is extracted. Sometimes
arsenic is added. This bath is given by
forcing the flieep off a platform about i
four feet high into the mixture while i
warm, and from the bath up an inclined
plane, from which they soon dry in the i
sun. Care must be taken that the bath ]
is not too hot, otherwise it will scald ; ]
and if to cold, will not take effect. Now ,
as to the profits of this great interest of
! sheop raising. They lie in the increase, j
| which is wonderful, the shearing pay- <
ing the running expenses of a single i
| herd, but rendering a good income as
I the herd increases. Some men buy in- (
j terests in rarge herds, or serve, taking i
Biieep ana iamDs in payment ox tneir <
services. This requires patience and l
close attention to the busiuess. The j
life is exceeding lonely, and the iaola- j
tion to ladies is very trying, servants be
ing very difficult to get, except Mexi- i
i cans, who serve for housework from 812
j to $20 a mouth. They lack industry, i
thrift, and neatness. They understand i
I but little English, and one must learn \
' their incorrect Spanish to deal with
| them. Herding seems to be their avoca- (
| tion, and for that, if they happen to bo j
' honest, they aro admirably adapted, i
1 Their poor relatives are most attentive, (
! and thrrugh them many sheep disappear
; when not well watched. Should any
j one desire to settlo in this country they
i can select a locality not previously oc
( cnpied, or included in any of thelarge i
j grants, and take np a claim by crossing c
j four logs. In one the name and date ?
. should be cnt, which claim will hold a
j good for thirty days. At tho expiration (
' of this term the.y must build a house at 1
j least twelve feet square, with a door and t
. a window. This will hold the claim for I
six montns. During this period it is c
j filed upon, and six months from filing a
: patent is procured from tho government
j by paying $1.25 an acre and about $20 ?
i fees. This is called pre-emption. In
homest?ading the same improvements A
aro to be made on tha property, and Jiv-- '
ing on it for five years, a patent can be
procured from government by paying the I
usnal office fees, about $20. In home
steading first, all right is lost to a claim "
>y pro-emption, but by pre-empting
Lrst a liomestead can be acquired after

s long as they live on the land, custom

A MIMIGHT BANK ROBBERY.
k. Young Lady Relates her Experience with
Burglars who Came to ltob a Bank.
Miss Mattie 0. White, of Williams
>ort, Pa., who was visiting in the fami
y of Mr. John Whittlesy, the cashier ?f
he Northampton bank, writes to her
>rother, Mr. E. L. White, an account of
ier fttnfirifinofi with t.lin hnrclars. She
lays :
About twelvo o'clock, or a little after,
ive burglars entered our peaceful home
ritli all the violence that we have often
lad pictured to us through the papers,
md such as is hard to believe, and can
>nly be realized through experience,
;uch as wo have now had. The first in
imation that Laura had of what was
joing on was that a man was entering
,heir room, over the sitting room, tnd
10 had a dark lantern in his hand and
mmediately sprang to their bed, wliilo
joth screamed. They were then held
jy their throats, two men then being
;here, and at once handcuffed and held
iown.
I hid not been asleep over ten min
1 tea, Tor I heard the town clock strike
;welve, and at half past twelve we were
ill under their entire subjection, there
jeing a man or two men in my chamber
?t once. The first I knew a man entered
ny room, and the dark lantern wakened
ne, I suppose. I screamed, thinking it
was John, and that the house was on
ire, and sprang out of bed. Ho put me
sack and choked me, and then told me
ae would treat me mnuiy n x wouiu
seep perfectly quiet. He said I was f
jaught?"You are all caught, and you v
nay as well give up." He then told me i
[ must get up. I begged him to let me ^
ie there, but he said " No," and pulled
ne up and lead me into the hall and *
landcnffed mo. Ho then took me into
[jaura's room?no, not quite yet. After
jetting me into the hall he said I would j.
ake cold without more clothing, and I
;old him I would take my death of cold ?
;hat way, and he led me back iato my ^
oom, when I obtained more clothes,
md he took me with them. Very short
y after Maria, Aunt Hattie and her ,
insband walked in the same room, and
;he girl was brought in with us. After ^
;hey had got us all in that room tfcey J;
nade us all get up separately and dress.
Of course we were rigged in each y
jther's clothing, and some were half
Iressed. They kept hurrying us up,
md we were all wonderfully possessed.
[ was very calm, and acted accordingly,
rhey opened L.'s bureau drawer, and
;ook out her handsome violet cloak and
landed it to her, saying: "I guess this
b what you want." %She put that on
vith her balmoral skirt, and then I was
lied up, and they fell short of hand
mffs.
Then Laura and I were joined by one
aandcuff, and they took us off into the

A letter from Eski-Zaghra, in the
irge, industrious, and comparatively
loffensive province of Bulgaria, tells us
lat at Sulmuchli, a village of that dis
rict, the Turks broke into the houses of
ae Bulgarians, where they violated half
score of the young girls and three
oung married women. They killed
welve Bulgarians and wounded eight;
ben, as they withdrew, they took away
rith them the corn, the lighter furni
are, and all tho portable property of
lie Christian inhabitants.
In the village of Cazank't, tho rural
tiara, wun two policemen ana otner
'arks, arrested fifteen Bulgarians, shut
liem up in a hut, and putting knives to
lieir throats, extorted forty-six Turkish
ire (the lire is equal to 18s. 2d.). In
lio district of Kezaulick, Koustchi
kgha, at the head of a band of Musaul
lans, traveled from village to village,
emanding money from the inhabitants,
nd threatening them with arrest incase
f refusal. He thus succeeded in se
aring a plunder of 560 lire. At Ga
ntche, while the villagers were away
onveying goods to the station, the Mus
nlmans robbed their houses and ill

rons, and, after plundering him of 20,
00 piastres, stabbed him with their
nives. His son-in-law was cudgeled
everely by thera as they were leaving
lie house with the plunder.
Robberies and murders are matters of
requent occurrence in the village of
]erfikli. Two young peasants have
ieen slain by Mussulman assailants. A
iriest has been robbed on the road be
ween Souhlari and Kavakli; his wiie
as been violated in his presence, and
imself stripped to the skin, his very
>eard being cut off from his face. The
dests of the village of Kira-Tueikll
rere tied to a country cart and dragged
bout ail night, beaten and wounded,
nd were only roleased upon payment of
welve and one-half lire each. The Bul
garian bishop of Sliven was attacked in
lie town of Yamboli by thirty or forty
lussulmans, and though he was hinv
elf rescued by the police, his servants '
7ero subjected to the most severe ill j
reatment. A boy of Kadi-Keui, fifteen
ears old, on his way to Sliven, was stop -
ied by some Turkish soldiers, who
lewed him down with their knives; he
ras brought to the governor's house,
deeding from the throat, and by bim
ent back to his village in a dying state,
idthout farther inquiry. At Elkovo five
feasants going home from market were
ttanked bv the Turks, who demanded
heir money. One of them tried to es
ape, but was shot dead on the spot.
?he others saved their lives by deliver
Dg their purses.
The tortures by which money is ex
orted mainly consist in burning the
ictims with red hot irons, piercing their
ongues with sharp daggers, compelling
hem to tread barefooted on heaps of
horns, etc. Sadick Bey, with some

Killed by a Moose. j f
An extraordinary occurrence was
wrought to light at an inquest held re
jently on the body of a man in Sonlih
London. It appears that in a work roo.aa
vhero many young girls were at work, a
nonse suddenly made its appearance on
i table, causing, of course, considerable
ommotion and a general stampode. rhe
ntruder was seized, however, by a young
nan who happened to be present, but
lie mouse slipped out ol his iiaud, and,
unning np his sleeve, came out be
;ween bis waistcoat and shirt, at the
leek. The unfortunate man had his
nouth open, and the mouse, on the look
rat for some convenient place of con.
;ealment, entered the man s uaouth, and
le, in his fright and surprise, swallowed
t. That a mouse can exist for a consid
erable time withoat much air has long
jeen a popular belief, and was, unfor
iunately, proved to bo a fact in the pres
;nt instance, for the mouse began to
car and bite inside the man's throat and
sliest, and the result was that the unfor
unate fellow died, after a little time, in
lorrible agony. Several witnesses hav
ng corroborated the above facts, and
nedical testimony as to the cause of
loath having been given, a verdict of
iccidental death was returned.

ational Publishing Co., of Philadel

me, styled "The Centennial History of
ie United States," by James D. Mc
abe, a well-known historical writer,
his work will, undoubtedly, take rank
i the standard history of the United
tates. It is no dry mass of details?no
ombastic effort to inflame the national
ride, but is a clear, vivid and brilliant
irrative of the events of our history,
om the discovery of the American Con
nent down to the present time.
We most heartily commend this book
> our readers. It gives a very interest
ig account of the Indians of North
merica, fr?m the time of the coming of
ie white men. The voyage of Colum
ns, the explorations of the different
ations of Europe and the wanderings
E the Spaniards in search of gold and
nmortal youth, are told with graphic

Every step of our colonial history is
acea with patient fidelity, and the
)urces of those noble, and we trust,
nduring institutions which have made
nr country free and great, are shown
ith remarkable clearness. The causes
f our ereat strutfcle for independence
re told with a logical force and

:count of the formation of the Federal
institution; the establishment of tho
rnion; the course of affairs until the
reaking out of the second war with
Id gland; and a full and comprehensive
2count of that war and its results. The
vents of our career from the close of

i8tory of the civil war is related with
ltense vigor, and with a strict fidelity

rites throughout with the calmness and
npartiality of a historian, and pleads
le cause of no party of section. He
tates facts, points out the lessons which

The chief engineer of the Wilmington
Ire department came over to our town
he other day, Bays Max Adeler, upon a
risit to the chief of our department,
vhose name is Jacobs; and it struck
racobs that it would be a first-rate idea
o show the visitor how very efficient
>ur firo department is. So Jacobs got
in old tar barrel and set it upon the
'oof of his stable, and touched it off
nth a match. When it began to burn
ftt lin flfftirfl fllA fliomftl fnT tVlA
ilarm, remarking at the same time to
he Wilmington man:
" You'll see that fire put out iu about
'our seconds by th? boys."
Thoy waited four bccouiIb for the boya,
jut they didn't come. They -waited
ifteeu minute3, and still nobody came,
racobs was furious, and as the barrel
vas burning very near to the roof, he
tent a boy around to the nearest engine
louse to ascertain v hat was the matter.
>Vhcn the boy came back be said the
iremen were all out at a picnio except
ug the members of the Washy Hose,
?ho had gone over to Paneader to fight
k oouple of roosters.
By this time the roof of the barn was
>n fire, and Jacobs was pretty near
irazy. The visitor wanted to telegraph
>ver to Wilmington for hia department,
>nt Jacobs alleged that he'd let the
sternal earth burn to cliarcoal before
ie'd oonsent to such a thing. Then he
ien'<& man on a fast horso to bring the
)oys in from that picnic, and by the
ime they reached the engine house the
itable was in ashes, and Peter's stable,
lext door, had begun to burn. So when
he engines arrived, Jacobs directed
hem to play upon that, and then they
jot to work; but after pumping for
iwhile without getting nny water, Jacobs
vas just about losing his senses, when
tfr. McAllister came up and mentioned
hat the supervisors had let all the water
>ut of the reservoir so as to clean it.
Hien Jacobs sat down to fan himself,
Lnd to try to decide whether to commit
ininidA ni* in Ifirivp flirt nonntrv. And tlif>

dea that he hadn't mnch to learn from
facobs abont extinguishing fires.
Mysterious Fires.
Mysteries of a fire are of three kinds
-the mystery of fraud, the mystery of
tarelessnesB, and the mystery of ignor
nco. The latter characterizes people
>f all ranks in life, and is, seemingly, an
>ersistent as carelessness, and some
imes as culpable as fraud. For in
tance, how many people know precisely
phat a defective flue is? How many
;now anything about spontaneous com
mstion ? How many blow that hollow
rails are actual fines, which have the
lower of carrying flames from the bot
om of a house to the top, almost in- !
tantly ? How many know that the
icat of a stove, even when separated by ,
ome little distance from wood, will, in i
bo course of time, so char it that a j
park will fire it ? How many know :
bat, under favorablo circumstances, ;
res will smolder for hour?, ready to j
ash into actual flame when fanned by i
lie opening of a door, or the slightest j
urrent of air caused in any manner [
'hatever ? In brief, how many know j
rtyfhing of a hundred and one circum- I
iances that will cause mysterious fires,
hich a slight degree of practical knowl- '
.Ige might easily prevent?

American Genius. H*od;r and Sankey.
The greatj revivalists, Messrs. Moody and
Smkey, who electrified staid old England with
their eloquence and enthusiasm, are fair sam
ples of American genius. Springing from
among the common people, their sympathies
are alive to the wants of the whole people, and
herein lies the secret of their great success.
Those who Beek to be popular mast study and
be familiar with the wants of the masse?, and
prove loyal thereto. To this faot we may trace
the grand suooess in business, as well as in re
ligious undertakings, which many Americans
have achieved. Strikingly illustrative of these
suggestions is that great establishment,located
at Buffalo, N. Y., and known as the " World's
JJi8p?nBwy ?a moat appropriate Dame, in- q
deed, for tbat vast institution, within whose .
walls are manufactured remedies whioh are in ,
demand in every quarter of the globe, and at I
which a corps of distinguished physicians and *
surgeons, under the pergonal direction of Dr. "
Pierce, are constantly administering to the
needs of thousands of sufferers everywhere,
and whose success in the treatment of all
forms of chronto ailments has become so well -
known that there iB scarcely a hamlet in the
land in which bid name is n t familiar. Its
proprietor, nays the Herald and Torchlight, of
ilia a m o ti r\f fha n tvrifca f Af

them, and to them tenders hi* eminent profes
sional services." Hi* advertisements are earn
est exhortations. Liko the great revivalists,
his enthusiasm is multiplied by tbe unparal
leled success of bid enterprise, as well as by
tbe efticaoy of his remedies in coring disease.
The people believe in him and bis remedies,
because, as the New York Tribune says, "he
sympathizes with them in all their afflictions,
efforts and attainments." Heoce, Dr. Pierce's '
Golden Medical Discovery is to-day more large- I
ly employed as a blood and liver medicine, and
also as a oough remedy, than any other reme
dial agent in the woil*. His Favorite Pre
scription he does not recommend aB a " cure
all," as is so often done by compounders of
worthless, humbug nostrums, but for all dis
eases and weaknesses peculiar to women it
has proved itself no much of a specific that it
now enjoys great popularity and universal
confidence. Dr. Pierce's Pleasant Purgative
Pellets, "scarcely larger than mustard seed,"
have proved so agreeable and reliable as a
cathartic that they are rapidly taking the place
nf thn laxcA. n&tiHAnnn nillH hnmfcnfnrfi flomnch
in use , while bis Compound Extract of Bmart
Weed is a favorite remedy for colic, cramps,
summer complaint, diarrhea, dysentery,
cholera, and cholera morbus, and also as a lini
ment. Of Dr. 8age's Catarrh Remedy, and
Dr. Pierce's Nasal Douche, little need be said,
aB they are known everywhere as the greatest
specifics for catarrh and " cold in the head"
ever givon to the public. And besides this large
measure of succoea, Dr. Piorce seems likely to
achieve as great renown as an author as he
has as a pbyriclan. His Common Sense Medi
cal Adviser,a book of about 900 pages,which he
sells at the unparalleled low price of $1.60,
has already been sold to the extent of exhaust
ing two editions, amounting to forty thousand
copies. The Heoret of Dr. Pierce's success,as
we'l as that of the great revivalists, and scores
of other Americans, who by their genius have
advanced stop by step from obecurity to afflu
ence and distinction, consists in treating the
DeoDle with consideration, svmualhv. candor
and honesty. No man, who hopes to attain
either wealth or distinction, can afford to deal
unfairly with the world or be indifferent to the ,
wants and best interests of humanity.? Com. *

EL R. Stevens, Esq.:
Dear Str?l have beard from very many sources of the
(rest success of VEGETINE in caaee ofScrofnla,Rhea
natlsm, Kidney Complaint, Catarrh, and all other dis
uses of kindred nature. I make no hesitation in faying
Jut I knnu> VEGETINE to be the moat reliable remedy
for Catarrh and General Debility.
My wife has been troubled with Catarrh for many
rears, and at times very badly. She has thoroughly tried
(very supposed remedy that we could hear of, and with
ill this she has for several years been gradually growing
orse, and the discharge from the head was excessive
ind very offensive.
She wa< in this condition when she oommenoed to
take VEGETINE; I could see that she was Improving
in the seoond bottle. She contlnuod taking the VEGtt
r IN K until she had used from twelve to fifteen
xittlee. 1 am now happy in informing you and the pub
lic (U you choose to make it pnbl'.cfthat sho U entirely
snred, and VEGETINE accomplished tne cure after
nothing el to wotild. Hence 1 feel justified in saying that
VEGETINE is the moat reliable remedy, and weald
id vile all suffering humanity to try it, for I believe it to
je a good, honest, vegetable medicine, and I shall not
Hesitate to recommend it
I am, eto., respectfully,

Mr. Stsvens :
Dear Sir-My daughter, after haying a (erere attack of
Whooping Oougb, was left In a feeble state of health.
Being advised by a friend she tried the VEGET1NE,
and afttr using a few bottle* vraa frilly restored to
health,
I hare been a great sufforer from Rhenmatlsm. I
have taken several bottles of the VKGETINK for this
complaint, and am happy to say It has entirely cured
me. I have recommended the VEGETINE to others,
with the same good results. It is a great cleanser and
purifier of the Dlood; it is pleasant to take; and I can
cheerfully recommend It
