A 'lal hawlk Drunikard, THE MAN WHO TANNED 11S STOMACH so THAT HE COULD EAT PEBDLE STONES AND SWALLOW SWORDS. The Youths' Comp&Lunion tells the story of a noted individual, Herman Heimol, a shoemaker, who, in the early part of this century, lived in Alsace. About the year 1839 he came to the United States, and set tlerd in New Orleans, where ho opened a shoo shop., Hoimol cared nothing for whiskey, gin, brandy or rum. Even his nmtional boer had no charm for him. He drank no alcohol at all. The The beverage whose taste enthralled him, and in imbibing which he seem ed at length to find his only pleasure was bark tea--the tan-water in which he steeped his hide ! It becamo a passion with him, and Heimol, the tanyard toper, loved his peculiar dram as well as any pot-house dis ciple ever loved his. But the visible effects were much tardier than in the case of the alco h olic drunkard. People had no par ticular remark to make on his ap pearance, unless perhaps some one would venture to hint that instead of a red rose lie had a yellow one. The invisiblo offects reported them selves (to the man himself) quite soon enough for his comfort. Not only did his stomach grow tough, but his gullet did. The liar dening process extended all the way up his osophagus and into his mouth. His throat dried and stifl, cued like an old hose pipe ; the glands of his palate puckered ; his t .ngne seasoned into a mere piece of animated India i ubber. At last lie could aay nothing at all He ate enormous quantities of food, but it gave him no satisfaction beyond knowing that it filled him full. He ate his dinner as he would -ake a shoe. In fact, he was about like a shoe himself now. He had been tanning himself into a miian of leather and he knew how it felt bet ter than lie could tell anybody. You think a man in his condition, and so well aware of the cause of it, would try to reform ; would break away from his strange habit, and by abstinance repair his ruined sense of taste. But reform in his case was something easier said than done. Heimel seemed as incapable of masterina or mending his habit as if ae had beon born with it, and every ;'day he went back to his beloved tan vl~ator: Still no outward signs of injury to is health and vitality appeL ed.

Now anc skillful surgeons come and injeci the warm blood of some health1 animal into his veins and this is hih only support. If lie is conscious o his condition, no misery can b< greater than his. Such is the story of the tanno tanner, or the tan-vat drunkard How far his appetite may have beer pure mama, we no room to spocu late. For his fate lie certainly could blame no one but himself, and his case (though perhial)s without c parallel in kind) is but another warn ing against 'the danger of yielding tc excess, or to unnatural appetites o any kind. How 'Trunels Old R. I returned to Ashville after an ab sence of three years and found Truf fles grown fat and jovial, with a face the very mirror of peace and self satisfaction. Truffles was the villag< baker, and lie was not like this when I went away. "Truffles," said I, "how is it ? You have improved." "Improved ! How ?" "Why, in every way. What hav< you been doing?" Just tlienalittle pil came inwith shattered shawl and baiefooted, to whom Truffles gave a loaf of bread. Oh, dear, Mr. Truffles," the chikl said, with brinming eyes, as she tool the loaf of bread ; "mamma is get. ting better, and she says she owes so much to you. She blesses you, indeed she does." "That's one of the things I've been doing," he said, after the child had gone. "You are givng the suffering fami ly bread," I queried." "Yes." "Have you any more cases like that '" "Yes, three or four of them. J give them a loaf a day, enough tc feed them." "And you take no pay ?" "Not from them." "Ah ! from the town ?" "No here," said Trufflos, layint his hand on his breast. "I'll tel; you," he added, smiling. -'One day over a year ago, a poor wonemtn came to me and asked for a loaf of bread, for which she could not pay-sh< wanted it for her poor, suffering children. At first I hesitated, but finally I gave it to her, and as bei blessings rang in my cars after shi had gone, I felt my heart grow warm Times were hard, and there was r good deal of suffering, and I foun myself wishing, by-and-by, that could afford to give away mor< bread. At length an idea struck me I'd stop drinking and give that amount away in bread, adding one or two loaves on my owniiac count. .I did it, and it', been a blossing to me. My hear has gr'own bigger, and I've growi better in every way. My sleep i sound1( and sweet, and my dreams arn pleasant. And that's what you see I suppose."

A gentlemen of this city, says the [ Louisville Courier-.Journal, one morning recently, while walking in 3 his garden, observed two columns of t ants crossing the path in opposite It directions. Upon noticing the curi- 1 ous movements closely, he saw that those going in one direction carried. the bodies of ants which he supposed c to be dead, while thoso going the a other way seemed to have deposited d their burdens, and were returning .I to get new loads. It was the first impression that the ants were en- t gaged in stocking a new cemetery ii with their illustrious dead In i order to /ote what effect a disturb- t ance of tieir line would create, he 1 droppeA a little sand upon the t column. Instantly the apparently i inanimate ants sprang to the ground U and became vigorously alive, while a the carixiers retreated in a pusillalni- 3 mous fashion. As more grains were t dropped the ants became very pug- t: nacious, roaring up and attacking each grain furiously. From this i singular conduct the gentleman con- h: cluded that the stnits were the fight ing members of the tribe, a sort of c mounted infantry that was being'n transported across the country tou guard some new frontier settlement, y and that, as soon as the grains be-k gan to fall upon the column, the ! ants, thinking enemies had opened . z< fire from their catapults, allowed the d warriors to dismount and pitch into o action, while the carriers beat a re- ii treat out of danger. In view of the . h circumstances, such a conclusion k seemed warranted. At any rate, i antkind has been regarded since n Solomon's time as exceedingly clever a, in all matters of domestic and social n economy, and there is no telling to s, what degree of intelligence ithas at- tl tamed in the progressive age. Who knows but what we daily tread un der our feot ant republics and insect g empi es, among which civil wars are progressing that necessitate the d maintenance of standing armies at tl the public expense. ir Hor es Suffer fron Bad Roads. r We are all grumbling about our P roads and our surveyors. The roads 1 are miserable, and our system of a making and repairing them is misera be ; but we do not realize how h much we are losing by continuing to use them in their present condi.. P tion. The annual expense for wear and tear of horses, carriages and N harness is enormous, but the loss from carrying only half the loads we might on smooth, hard and level roads is very munch greacter. Sup posini a horse can pull on a level road 1,000 pounds, on a road rising one foot to the hundred he could 81 pull but 900 pounds. If it rises two feet in a hundred 810 pounds, two and a half foot 720 pounds, four feet 520 pounds, live feet 400 pousl18, and if the rise were ten feet in a hundred he could pull1 but 250 p)ounds, or only one quarter the load lie could draw on a level road. Then, again the condition of a road, whether har d and smooth, or soft and uneven I has much to do with the amount a team can draw over' it. Experiments made by Morin show that a load of 9,000 p'ounds will require a tractive force of 1,000 pounds to move ~it over a firm, gravel road, newly ro pie.On best kind of gravel road 35pounds. On roken stone road igodcondition 1664 pounds :en a good pas ement 1384 pounds. Ac cording to the above calculations, in ci the first case it would take cighmt hoi -n sea to (10 the work wich once puld don in the latk~r case. So if both roads were level, and we have 200 bushels ' > of potatoes to carry to market, we I could drawv them on the best p~aved p .road with one horse, while on the l imnew rep~aired gravel road we shouldi need eight horses, and if the rise a I were ten feet in a hundred we should Ii require thirty-two horses to draw tl athe same load.-New Edra FParmecr. s r A LAuM DEFENsE.-A lame defense is better than none, occasionally, r but a sailor ini Montreal recently made a sadi mistake in this particular a He was charged with larceny, and, and when questioned on the subject. informed the court that lie had evi 1 deuce to offer in his defense. He called, as his first witness, a boy, a tmembor of the crc w, who testified a very frankly that lie had seen the prsoe attemipting to open1 the box from which the money had heoen i taken ; the audience laughed, and z the prisoner seemed~ equally amused. t IThe magistrate inquired of the pris-e oner if lie had any other similar evi I don1ce to offer, and lie naively replied i that lhe had two other witnesses whob would swear the same thing (laugh-a tor'.) Conviction aind sentence were no longer delayed. MOnvAITYv AMONG EELEPHKANTs. We learn from the Rangoon Buirmah 2 M akil of a large mortality among ele 1 phiants in that district ; and a more serious loss of the same kind has e' been experiened by the Moulmein ,foresters on thme Thoungyen side. s The Mail states the value of each . elephant is from 800 rupees to 1,500 3 rupees. ($400 to $750) and that thme I loss to their people in the aggregate Sis very considerable greatly enhanc o ing the price of these useful animals, i .and increasing the difficulty and cost' of bringing timber to market. JHoimie.do at Allendale, 8. 0. Special to Chrpnicle to &ntinel.] ALLENDALE, S. C., November 6. testerday afternoon, on the 8:30 up rain for Augusta, there cane to his place two rowdy, snspiicious, ooking characters, named Hutto and Leock. They wore considerably intoxi ated and very soon began to, con luct themselves in a riotou's and lisorderly manner. One of them lutto-introduced himself into one f the stores and grossly insulted he owner and his clerks, threaten rig their lives if they attempted, any ajuries to him. Some of the mem ers of the Town Council, and- the farshal, coming to the store about hat time, ordered his arrest, when o humbled himself to his knees and egged pardon if he had violated ny law.

It would ave been an easy matter to have illed him, but none caring to take is life and finding him determined of to be taken alive he kept them E bay until night came on, when he lade good his escape.
