PUBLISHED EVERY THURSDAY AT .INWBERRY, S. C. Wonderful Tropical Fruits. [Fafeadio Hearn, in Harper's . Maga zine.] All through the land round about are other wonders. There are avenues of table-trees, whose foliage seems exag gerated horizontally, alleys of mahoga ny-trees; lanes of Oridokes, whose fronds coruscate with crimson blossom ing. There are amazing shrubs-orange colored things; there are plants with glossy leaves speckled in four different colors; there are various plants that look like wigs of green hair, or masses of filiform green sea-weed, set on short sticks; plants with enormous broad leaves, so diaphanous as to seem made of green glass; plants that do not look like real plants, but like idealizations of plants, like the fantasticalities of wood-carvers and stone-cutters ani mated by witchcraft. There are grasses that look like dwarf palms-tiny arborescent grasses with curving stems and plumed heads. There are flowers of extravagant forms and colors-flow ers that possess familiar shapes, but have absurd tints and unfamiliar per fumes, yellow and indigo and green, orange and black and crimson plants. And in all the ponds, covering all the canals, float the green navies of the monster lily, the Victoria Regia. Close to shore the leaves are not extraordi narily large; but they increase in breadth as they float further out, as if gaining bulk proportionately to the depth of water. A few yards off, they are large as soup plates; further out, they are broad as dinner trays, in the' centre of the pond or canal they have surface large as tea-tables. And all have an upturned edge, a perpendicu lar rim, like a bulwark. Here and there you see the flower-a nonsensical flower, large as a hat. Then there are fiddlewood-trees in multitude,calabash trees, mangoes, bread-fruits, sago palms, fig-trees, and a hundred unfa miliar shapes of which I cannot learn the names. And there is the snake nut tree, bearing a most ghastly fruit. For this swart nut-shaped almost like a clam shell, and halving in the same way along its sharp edges-encloses something incredible. There is a pale envelop about the kernel; remove it, an you find between your fingers a little viper, triangular-headed, coiled thrice upon itself, perfect in every detail of form from skull to tail. Was this marvellous mockery evolved for a protective end? It is no eccentricity: in a hundred nuts the serpent-kernel lies coiled the same. Yet in spite of these astonishments, of these novel impressions, what a weird delight it is to turn again into an avenue of palms, and to know once more the queer sense of being watched, without love or hate, by all those silent , gracious, tall, sweet things! A Cork Fighting a Looking-Glass. ...----Benja'oin Karr, ih Popular Science Monthly.] - An amusing test of the difference of disposition in barn-yard fowls may be made by placing a piece of looking glass against the trunk of a large tree, and laying a grain of corn in front of it. Some hens will discover what they all take for a new arrival with mild curiosity and merely look at it intent ly, perhaps peering around behind the tree, and then walk quietly away. Others peck the glass angrily and insist .upon fighting, while a few nerv'ous fe males show much the same noisy ex citement that seizes upon most hens when they spy a snake. We tried the valiant old autocrat of the farm-yard with this trick, and he was at once roused to fury. Dropping his head when some ten feet in front of the * glass, he began the cautious advance -by parallels, which every one familiar Yrith poultry has seen before a fight. But, of course, he soon lost his enemy -by moving too far to one side. After crowing fiercely and looking around uneasily for a few moments, he return ed to the grain of corn, and almost in stantly saw the strange cock nearer than before. More stealthy approach, another failure to keep sight of the foe, and greater excitement, and a third time he began to eat, only to be startled by the hostile presence nearer than ever. At last he worked right up to the glass and braced himself for the shock of combat, the counterfeit, of course, following his every movement with ominous celerity. There was one fierce peck at the angry head in the glass, and then a crash, as our infuriat ed champion hurled himself against his likeness, breaking the glass into a hundred fragments. The mingling of astonishment, rage, and triumph in this bird's appearance, as he whirled about startled at the cracking noise, and bewildered by the total disappear ance of his enemy, was comical to be hold. Then he rushed around behind the big pear-tree, evidently thinking that the cowardly stranger might be hidden there. Not finding him, the victor strutted about, too'excited to eat, and crowed long and 16ud over his unprecedented tri umph. The other cock was entirely wiped out of exist once, and our old fighter, who would crow defiantly in our arms whenever he find himself being carried off' the premises, knowing from experience that a set-to was coming, could scarcely credit his senses.

G E oria.........-.--- -- A Hiner who ade Twelve Millios. [Edwards Roberts, in Harper's Mag azine.] Marysville, nearly thirty miles from Helena, is a second Wickes in appear ance, but when one remembers the P wealth of the mines which have created t: the town, he forgets the ugliness of the I streets, and ceases to notice the dilapi- c dation of the rudely; built cabins. 0 Marysville is chiefly famous as the site v of the Drum Lummon, but does not s depend on this mine alone for its sup- a port. The town is the chief seat of an extremely rich district, already well r developed, and is an important suburb of Helena. It is connected by rail with the laiter city, and will evenually be the terminus of a branch of the Mani toba road. I The discoverer of the Drum Lummon was Mr. Thomas Cruse. In the days t before he sold his property and re turned to Helena a much honored a millionaire. Mr. Cruse was locally f know as "oid Tommy," and was looked upon as a somewhat visionary t man. None questioned after a time that a his n'ine, where he lived and labored alone, was valuable, but few placed its worth so high as did the patient owner. When he refused half a mi,ion for his mine, the people of Helena called him foolish, and when he turned away from the offer of a million, they called him a fool. But the miner was wiser than his friends, and eventually re-' celved his price, $11,500,000, and a good ly number of shares in the new com pany. Then, as so often is the case, the old familiar-ty was dropped, and the "Tommy" of by-gone days became Mr. Thomas Cruse, "capitalist." A kind, thoroughly honest man, of whom I all who know him are ready to say a good word, he is a familiar figure on the streets of Helena, and to-day is presi dent of a savings-bank in the city where a few years ago he was not sure i of getting trusted for enough to keep himself alive. As an illustration of t the ups and downs of a miner's life he t is a notable example. s Death and Burial in China. [Adele M. Fielde, in Popular Science Monthly.] When the Chinese wish to declare the a extreme vexatiousness of any piece of t4 work, they say, "It is more trouble than a funeral"; the obsequies of a parent being reckoned the most mad dening affair in human experience. Infants are buried summarily, with out coffins, and the young are entered with few rites; but the funerals of the aged, of both sexes, are elaborate in propotion to the number of the de scendants and to their wealth. When a childless married man dies, his widow may perform all the duties of a son s, toward him, may remain in his house, t and may adopt children to rear as his heirs and worshipers of the family manes. If his widow purposes marry- , ing again, a young male relative may, g with the consent of senior members of I the clan, undertake the services expect- E ed from a son, and may inherit the I estate of the deceased. When one is about to die, he is re- r moved from his couch to a bench or to ~ a mot on the floor, because of a belief that he who dies in bed will carry the bedstead as a - burden into the other world. He is washed in a new pot, in warm water in which a bundle of in- s, cense-sticks is merged. After the wash- ) ing, the pot and the water are thrown ~ away together. He is then arrayed int a full suit of new clothing, that he may e appear in hades at his best. He breathes his last in the main room, before the a 'largest door of the house, that the de parting soul may easily find its way out into the air. A sheet of spirit- y money, brown paper having a patch of t I gilding on one surface, is laid over the upturned face, because it is said that, if the eyes are left uncovered the corpse may count the rows of tiles in the roof, and that in such case the family could never build a more spacious domicile How the Balloon was Invented. [Sir William R. Grove.] Exercise is antagonism; at each step force is used to lift up our bodies and push back the earth; as the eminent Joseph Montgolfier said, that when he saw a company dancing, he mentally inverted his view and imagined the earth dancing on the dancers' feet, which it most urnquestionably did. Indeed, his great invention of balloons was guessed at by his witilessing a mild form of antagonism between heat and gravitation. He, being a dutiful husband, was airing his wife's dresses, who was going to a ball. He observed the hot air from the fire inflated the light materials, which rose up in a sort of spheroidal form (you may have some of you not.iced this form in dress!). This grave him the idlea of the fire-bal loon, which, being a large paper-nmaker at Annonay, he forthwith experiment ed on, and hence we got aerial naviga tion. This anecdote wa told me by his nephew M. Seguin, also an eminent The Exact Time. [Harper's Magazine.] On the occasion of a wvedding in Vir ginia, not long ago, the hospitality of the family mansion wvas taxed to the utmost, and one of the guests had to be accommodated with a hastily erected bed in his host's room. Early in the morning, J im, an irrepressible retaineir of the family, camne in to light the fire, and his master asked him the time. He didn't know. "Well you idiot, can't you look at the clock?" Jim studied it anxiously for a few minutes, and then ventured: "I can't jes zackly make out whut time, 'tis, Mis' Smiff; but oue hand's p'intin' todes you, en one hand's p'intin' todes Marse Sammy. I reckon you knowv what time dat is." A Ridiculous Teaching. [Editor's Drawver, inHarper'sMagazine]t A somewhat unpolished mother of a f very chan .ng daughter was recently heard to say ; "I don't intend lettin' Emily go back to Madam Waring's school. They don't teach 'em right. Now I don't knowv so very much my self, but I never would tell my child that IX spells nine. It's absolutely raidlous." HANGES IN RAILWAY MAIL SER VICE.

I was surprised and delighted at the action of the Pills, so much so, indeed, that I was led to a further trial of them, as well as of your Cherry Pectoral and Sarsapa rlla. I have nothing but praise to offer in their favor." John W. Brown, M1.
