New York, May 24.?When Margaret Mdlbaney used to wobble through the East Side streets everybody stopped and stared at her. Margaret weighed 650 pounds|and lived with a cousin at No. 43 Hamilton Street. Three months ago the small boys in the vicinity began to notice the stout woman's absence. Her flesh has accumulated at such a rate that she was unable to move about. Heart failure set in and Dr. Campbell, of the New York Di?pensary, who prescribed for her, saw that death was not far off. Early on Saturday morning Mr*. Mul haney died. She was fifty-five years old. Undertaker McCallum found it impossible to properly care for the body except by embalming. The funeral took plp.ce at S o?clock this afternoon, A crowd gathered in tho street expecting serious difficulty in getting the casket out of the house, and they were not mistaken. An ordinary coffin is sixteen inches wide and thirteen inches high. A plain cloth covered box thirty-seven inches wide and twenty inches high enclosed Mrs. MulhaneyV body. The hallway of the house being only thirty-five inches wide the box had to be tipped sideways, while twelve brawny men strained every muscle to carry it through. This required twenty minutes of hard work. No hearee was big enough to accom? modate the coffin, and an undertaker's wagon was in readiness, which carried the remains to Calvary Cemetery. A grave is dug ordinarily twenty-four inches wide. Ground has been bought for two graves, giviDg a width of forty eight inches. Sixteen of the cemetery employees laid hold of and lowered the gigantic box into the double grave. _ Ml - Bocklen's Arnica Salve The best salve in the world for Cuts Bruises, Sores, Ulcers, Salt Eheum, Fe? ver Sores, Tetter, Chapped Hands, Chil? blains, Corns, and all Skin Eruptions, and positively cures Piles, or no pay required.

AdvocateB of the phonetic system of spelling are making an effort to have the United States government adopt their mode of spelling in all government pub? lications, and in the printed proceedings of Congress. ? Mrs. Robert L. Cutting, who died in New York last week, would never tell anybody how old she was, and it has been solemnly agreed that there should be no mention of her age upon her coffin plate. ? It keep? three large Chicago facto? ries busy to manufacture the locomotive headlights and railroad lanterns that are used in this county. The factoriea give employment to eleven hundred men and boys. ? "Henry, if you truly love me, you most prove it in some way." "Nothing easier, my love. The river here is very deep and swift. Jump in and you shall see how quickly I will have you out again." ? There is a family in Lithonia, Qa, which consists of husband, wife and four children but no twins and the total weight of the family is less than three hundred pounds. The wife and mother weighs seventy-five pounds. ? The humps of camels are mere lumps of fat, and not provided for in the framework of the skeleton. When the animal is in good condition the humps are full and plump. On a long journey where food is scarce, the humps are entirely ab? sorbed, the skin covering them hanging over the flank like an empty box. ?? The Turks esteem the board as the most noble ornament of the male sex, and consider it more infamous for any one to have his beard cut off than to be pub? licly whipped, pilloried or brandad with a red hot iron. Almost any orthodox Turk would prefer being put to death rather, than have his beard removed from his face. ? Who is your family physician, Fred? dy ?" asked Mrs. Hendricks of the Brown boy. "We ain't got none," said the boy. "Pa's a* homoeopath, ma's an allopath, sister Jane is a Christian Scientist, grand? ma and grandpa buy all the quack medi? cines going, Uncle James believes in massage, and brother Bill is a horse doctor." ? All Paris is laughing over the joke about an American inventor who is said to have patented a corset that is to bring about the reign of morality at once. If one of these articles is pressed by a lover's arm it at'once emits a shriek like the whistle of a railway engine; and the inventor claims that he has already mar? ried three of his daughters, owing to the publicity thus thrust upon a backward lover. ? A quaint writer tells of a very good prayer which was once offered: A brother was praying with much noise for faith?"soul-saving faith, sin-killing faith, devil-driving faith." There was a quaint friend near him, to whom the noisy brother owed a large bill. "Amen," ! said the friend. "Amen, and give us a debt-paying faith too." All other kinds of faith are nothing withort this honest faith. ? Ex-Governor Ames, of Massachu? setts, was onco asked to pay a physician $1,000 for services which the wealthy patient did not consider worth that much. But as his medical adviser would not re? duce the bill one cent, two checks for $500 each, were sent in payment, one distinctly Btating that it was for profes? sional attendance and the other "for ex hortion." The doctor framed the latter check, and has it in view in his office to? day._ Advice to Women If-you would protect yourself from Painful, Profuse, Scanty, Suppressed or Irregular Men? struation you must use BRADFIELD'S ?jj FEMALE 1 REGULATOR ] Cartersville, April 20,1880.

BRADFIELD REGULATOR CO., ATLANTA, GA. $QIi SA-IS BY ALXj pBUQQI?T?, SAH JONES'S WORK. A Striking: Tribute from a Hebrew Jour? nalist. Rev. Sam Jonea'a recent work in Chat? tanooga has won golden opinions from all classes. Mr. George W. Ochs, a pro? gressive Hebrew journalist, and proprie? tor of the Chattanooga Times, pays him the following earnest tribute in the columns of this paper: I am not disposed to engage in a polem? ical controversy, to question the truth or falsity of Mr. Jones's doctrines, or to eodoree any or all of Mr. Jones's views. My own faith is shorn of all doctrinal limitations?an abiding belief in an all wise, all merciful, omnipotent, indivisi? ble God?and is broad enough to respect the tenets of all my fellowmeu, for I sub? scribe most heartily to the words, "For forms of faith let graceless zealous fight, His can't be wrong whose life is in the right." The unique character and peculiar methods of this revivalist have become a Bubject of comment all over this broad land and the very divergent views re? specting him, which have been given publicity at Chattanooga, were expressed wherever he has conducted services. I have attended his services frequently and have been an attentive listener. My own religious vlewB being totally differ? ent from his doctrinal teachings and dogmas, enabled me to dispassionately analyze his utterances and to critically study their effects. I was never swayed by his passionate appeals, nor have I been terrified by his lurid pictures of impend? ing eternal punishment, nor do I endorse his opinions of dancing, the kirmess and society, yet I have been touched by his pathos, stirred by his eloquence and fas? cinated by his marvelous magnetism. * * * * What of his work ? He never preach? es anything but morality. His sermons are simply the ten commandments. His exhortations are most eloquent against moral vices and social Bins. How can any one consistently say that a man pos? sessed of his eloquence and his magnet? ism, who always urges moral uprightness and rectitude, can do aught but good ? I saw him Bway an audience of 5,000 men by his remarkable powers. I sa n men who came to scoff remain to pray. I saw him on the pulpit in his shirt sleeveB pouring forth a Biream of eloquence, which gushed from his lips like from one inspired, enthrall a multitude of men until thouBande'were in tears, every fiber of their being wrought to tense emotion, and every utterance he made, every argument he used, was an earnest plea for morality, temperance and charity. And when he ceased I saw a hardened criminal, one whom I had seen with ball and chain, pass up the aisle, tears stream? ing from his eyes, his whole nature soft? ened as it had never been before; I saw him grasp the hand of the evangelist and I heard him say between his sobs: "Ai God is my judge I will lead a better life." I saw a sporting man, one who makes his livelihood at the gambling table, who never before, perhaps, had a serious re? flection, wipe his eyes as he took the evangelist's hands and promise to lead an honest life. I snw confirmed drunk? ards step forward and promise to quit these habits. I saw 1,000 men, three fourths of whom had, perhaps, never before given a thought to any moral precept, one-half of whom were steeped in vice, crowd around the evangelist with tearful eyes and solemnly pledge their word to reform. Dare any one Bay that this is of no avail? By his works judge him. What if his methods are not in accordance with common usage, his results condone every fault in language. One need not commend his flippant replies to his critics, and, it must be con? fessed that his treatment of a recent review npon his methods?which was dignified, courteous and conservative? waB not creditable to Mr. Jones. Still this pertains to his personality, and does not affect the result of his labors. What if a large proportion of hiB con? verts relapse into their former manner of life ? Some will prove faithful, and in all a seed has been planted where hereto? fore there was sterile soil. Everyone on inquiry can learn of the good work he is doing, of the reforms he has accomplish? ed, of the broken spirits he has revived, of the weak natures he has strengthed. of the ray of sunshine he has cast into here? tofore* darkened lives, of his charity, his earnestness and of his sincerity. I have little patience with his detrac? tors ; they rail at his mode of expression; had they better not turn their batteries on frail human nature, because they know the multitude is attracted and is moved by him ? If anyone is at fault it is the people, not Sam Jones. He per? ceives the method that must be pursued, and with marvelous aptitude he employs it, and behold the fruits of his labor? He leaves the community better, more elevated, and purer, and every seed he sows is a seed of morality, of temperance, of chastity and of charity, and not one of evil drops from his hand. Bound for Africa. Thomas Peek, Owen Foore, Luke Hammock and others want to civilize the dark continent. They wish to be incorporated under the name and style of the Independent Afri? can Missionary Emigration Society. In Atlanta the company asks to have its principal office with the privilege of establishing branch offices at any town or place in the State. The capital stock of the society is placed at ?10,000, to be divided into 1,000 shares at $10 each, with the privi? lege of increasing to $50,000. . In view of the objects of the company the applicants ask that they be not re? quired to state the actual amount of capital paid in. For the purposes of its business of transporting colored emigrants from any port in the United States to any port on the west coast of Africa, the company wants the power to receive donations by gift or will, to buy, hold, lease, or char? ter such ships or other vessels as may be necessary. The society also wants Jhe power of holding such lands as may be necessary, together with the general corporate Eowers of having a seal, and of suing and eing sued.
