E TilURS)A AT An Interestin. Event.iun the Country-A Pen Ficture of How it is Done. The cold waves which combind to freeze the old year out nld th.e new in gave the fari(ers t.e first real chance this season to save thoir me They went abou t t wit energy t.h t Monday of l wa- t:e and severe. The morni: was cri.p enough to stand on edge, and wl itec of smoke from the boiling vrr ) sh ; up into the light a:r like balloo,ns. Did you ever a tend a g.nuine hog - killing in the country- It is not so fre quent or iupors, t a; it used to be when Cllark Howe, -,rctic winters sat I upon the iamli, bat it is just as interest D^. Suppose we out into the back lot, where the fire is made. The grass is crisp, and snap like acorns un der your feet, and the L oar frost shoots up frem the pores of :Ie earth. The lot -s already ftil;of plump, black pork ers.t They run and su ?al and fall over each other in their efibrts to get the last grains, thrown to them as a death deco. Six mnth: L zo the :st promising shoes were mark: 3 f'r killing and male and female membt rs of the litter receiv-d such dic,eate attentions as woud leave them in proper condition for the knife. Since tAat time they have been len every consideration. They have had the pICk of the pen. Nothing on the lot was too good for them. Choice bits from the barn and dairy, from the kitRehe itself have been saved-for aion(g hogs those whorn we w-ish to dcstr,y we first make fat. Srote and inditlerent to their fate these p :kers accepted the gifts the Gods pidIe, IruntA and grew fat. Near the roaring tire ieap a big hogs head :ii- with water has been sunk into the ground and the hot rocas are rolled into the wate!r until the hogs head becomes a seething tub. Porker No. I is eaught by two stalwart hands who handle hin as y would haul in in a bueking bron( with a lariat. The hog is thr,wn ,t,xterously upon his back, his head i foreed to the ground and a sarA knife severs the windpipe-then makes a vicious plunge down into the region of the heart. A squeal, a gurgle and a struggle settle the matter. The hov has given it up. He is allowed to stif'tn on the ground while his compan ions one by one take their places by his bide. Then he plunges headlong into the steamy hogshead and after he comes out skillful hands shave him uutil his whole body is white and gleaming. He is a beautiful corpse. A hickory splinter is passed thbrough his back and he is strung up while his body is ripped and relieved of its rotundity. Spread out upon a cooling board the hog beconmes a flat felIon of meat. Sonme skilful work sets in just now-the trimmers and cutters have himt in charge. Hams are trunca ted; jowi, back-bone and spare-ribs un Jointedi; chime is set a4ide; erackien is steamed out from the fat, chitterlings - eaned and that matchless patchwork passed through the sausage mill oozes from the long nooz7ie into the connect ing links of that mysterious chain which holds the breakfast table in its .thrall. It is half holiday on the farm. Men and wvomeni work handily while the hogs sre dissected and salted down. *What rare souse and chime. The cabins are stoeked with delicacies for weeks. Pigs feet are plentiful and the little childreu, whita and colored, are keen f.2r the fat piekinigs of the killing. Think of Oase h:ome mLade hams, the best ad .sweetcK in the world, brown ing and oVwniZ nallU;: in the~ smoke ome, and then slppa lik cocoons into ir canvms-:zek shells.

Presbyterian.] Prosperity and HeadSprings churches Newberry County, S. C., are now with out a pastor. The cause out of which this grew seemed at first a little "cloud no bigger than a man's hand," and this cloud was caused by a difference of opinion about erecting a new building and moving the church of Prosperity into the village of Prosperity. All thought and hoped that the matter would be amicably settled, but the end is not yet. The small cloud has grown until its black dimensions have dark ened the horizon. Christians should be prayerfully careful to preserve "the spirit of unity in the bond of peace," for schisims are more easily made than healed and their tendency is to widea. Though not intimately connected with the trouble there is not an A. R. P. church in Newberry County that does not entertain very pronounced feelings concerning the difficulty. "Behold how great a matter:a little fire kindleth." Under the existing circumstances Mr. Boyd and many of his warmest friends thought it best that he resign, but not that they were tired of him. No we are, by no means, tired of him, but feel a devotion to him which will last until death. Mr. Boyd came to us like Timothy, young, just from the seminary, and he has served us thirty-twoyears. Dur ing that time he has been a faithful, patient pastor. He received many of us into the church and when we started life, he married most of us; he baptized our little ones, prayed, oh, so fervently, over odr sick, and stood with us by the yawning grave as we gave to it the fathers and mothers we so much loved. Is it any wonder we esteem him so highly? Is it any wonder we weep when we realiz.; the fact that the bond which unite I ni .s pastor and people i-: torn asunder? Could woman's tears have healed the wound there would scarce be a scar to tell the tale. Mr. Boyd has been and still is high ly esteemed all over the county. For several terms he served acceptably as school commissioner and was urgently solictited to allow his name to be of fered as a candidate during the last campaign. But he is gone. His beautiful home which he so much lo-ed and around which his members loved to linger is now the home of a stranger, his pulpit is vacant and we look in vain for his cordial greetings, for they are not. A minister so orthodox as Mr. Boyd will soon find a field of labor, and we assure those to whom he is committed that they will not be fed with the high sounding words of man's wisdom, but they will be fed with milk for the weak and meat for the strong. May his last days be like God's faith ful servant, Job, more prosperous than his beginning.

Committee. Without an "E." From the New Orleans Times.] The following poem of three stanzas of four lines each has often been allud ed to as one of the most unique of liter ary curiosities. Each stanza contains evry letter in the alphabet except the letter "e," which all printers will tell you is one of the most indispensible letters, its relative proportion of use being 120 times to j 4, k 8, g 17 and 140. The one coming next to "e" in numoer of times of use is "a," which is used 80 times, while the latter in question is being used 1z0 times. The poem is en titled: THE FATE OF NASSAU. Bold Nassau quits his caravan, A hazy mountain grot to scan; Climbs jaggy rocks to spy his way. Doth tax his sight, but far doth stray. Not work of man nor sport of child, Finds Nassau in that mazy wild; L&x grows his joints, limbs toil in vamn Poor w:ght! Why did&'t thou quit that plain? Vainly for succor Nassau. calls. Knows Zillah that thy Nassau fall: But prowling wolf and fox may joy To quarry on thy Arab boy. The Presldent of the Kansas Alliance is in Hot Water. To vi:xKA, KAs., January S.-Steps have been taken looking to the im-. peachiment of Frank McGrI th, presi dent of the Kansas Farmers' Alliance, who is accused of being a party to the alleged scheme to elect E. J. Turner, Republican Congressman from the Sixth district, to the United States Senate. The matter will be brought before the special session of the execu tive board of the Alliance, which is to be convened in the city next week. Hlow it Feels to be a Millionaire. In view of the fact that but few people are in the habit of discovering by per sonal experience how it feels to be a mil lionaire, Mr. Geo. M. Pullman, the pos sessor of $50,000,000, has described the feeing. "I believe," says he, "that I am no better off-certainly no happier -than I was when I didn't have a dollar to my name and had to work from daylight until dark. I wore a good suit of clothing then and can only wear one now. I relished three meals a day then a good deal more than I do three meals a day now. I had fewer cares, I slept better, and I may add, generally, that 1 believe I was far happier in those days~ than I have been many times since 1 became millionaire. And yet it is a comfort able feeling to be rich." ~i~vi~ ~ FLUTES OF THE rYRAMDS. Played 3,000 Years After Burial -The Egyptians Ha7 Our Scale. [London Daily News.] A number of eminent musicians were invited to listen to a highly interest ing lecture delivered yesterday to the Royal Academy students by T. L. Southgate, upon ancient Egyptian musical instruments in general, and upon the double pipes recently dis covered by Flinders Petrie in the tomb at Kahun in particnlar. From the fact that the flutes shown in the frescoes were of various lengths, Mr. Southgate conjectured that the Egyp tians, almost from the time of Moses, must have had knowledge of some sort of harmony, while, as in one of the frescoes, seven flute performers were simultaneously playing, an eighth had what he whimsically described as "fifty bars rest." Still more interesting was the exhi bition of the actual flutes discovered in the lady's sarcophagus at Kabena and Indisputably dating before the time of King David, of Israel. Performed upon and the task of playing these archaic instruments is now most difficult, by Mr. J. Finn, they yesterday gave prac tically the exact notes of our diatonic scale, thus proving-in every sense of the terms to actual demonstration that our scale was known to the Egyp tians many centuries before the Greeks, from whom it had erroneously been supposed we borrowed it. No attempt was made to perform the double flute, and, indeed, if ever the two were played together, the art is lost. But upon a copy of one of these ancient funeral dirge, entitled "The Song of Sonus.'' The tone of these instru ments, we may add, in no way re sembles that of the flutes of to-day. It to a certain extent recalls the drone of the bagpipe, although one prominent musician yesterday irreverently likened it to tie sound of the small-tooth comb and tissue paper of childhood days. Many other copies of ancient instru ments were tried yesterday, among the :a a replica of a flute, discovered two years ago by a French savant, with eleven holes, with the approximate date being 1275, B. C., that is to say, during the period that the Israelites were still in Egypt. To "stop" eleven holes in a flute would seem to demand that one of the hands should have an extra finger ; but Mr. Finn, after many trials, has succeeded iu doing it, and the notes given were practically those of one chromatic scale. From these and other facts Mr. Southgate, in the peroration to his very valuable lecture, contended that'the tonality of the ancient Egyptian was the source of our own music, and certainly none of the musicians present were willing to contradict a doctrine which seems quite feasible. An Infant Prodigy in Anatomy. [From the Atlanta Constitution.] At the regular meeting of the South ern Medical Society last Saturday evening, Master Albert Verner Fensch of Fort McPhei on was unanimously elected to honorarry membership in that organization, as the youngest med ical student known to the profession. Dr. J. E. Price, of Virginia, Presi dent of the society, who introduced this young gentleman, stated that though he bad barely attained the age of 5 years, he was possessed of a knowledge of anatomy, especially of osteology, equal to that of many graduates of medicine. In his exhibition before the society the child was able, not only to give the tehnical and scientific names of each of the 200 and odd bones of the hu man skeleton, but to de-cribe their various functions, divisions, tu berosi ties, tubercles, &c. The little fellow prefers to amuse himself by fitting together and adjust ing the bones of the human body (of which he has been presented a com plete set) to playing with blocks, drums, and whistles ; and delights in tracing on anatomical charts and cuts the various vessels of the human anat oy, rather than amusing himself with picture books. He intelligently listens to and appreciates a scientific lecture on anatomy while scorning Mother Goose's melodies, and chooses his friends and acquaintances among physicians and medical students rather than from children of his own age. This little anatonmist is a favorite with the professors and a pet of the students of the Southern Medical Coli lege, where he rarely ~fails to be in at tendance upon Prof. Nicholson's kec tures on anatomy. This infant wonder was highly de lighted and appeared to fully appre ciate the honor conferred upon him, and in his own phraseology addressed the President and gentlemen of the society, thanking them for his election to honorary membership. "Dr. Albert," as he is called by his acquaintances, can be seen on pleasant mornings, lunch basket in hand, trudg ing alone from Whbitehall street cross ing to Walton street, where he is in attendance at the kindergarten de partment of Mrs. Baylor Stuart's aca demy, where his long golden curls, rosy cheeks, intelligent blue eyes and amiable disposition make him a general favorite.
