AWFUL INDEED-Our friend L. c. writes us that,
"On Friday the 20th inst, while tie prOprietors Of
part of the town Of Newherry were engaged in sell
ing lots at auction, q boy on the bank of White river
discovered a human form a few feet from the bank in
the water. which proved TO be a boy about ten years
old. Shortly after the boy was discovered, a woman
somewhat advanced in years was seen, a few feet
from where the boy was found when taken out, it
was ascertained that on Tuesday there was a girl in
company with them 10 town. And on examining the
bank Of tie river, three tracks were seen descending
a steep bank a small distance above-when diligent
search was made for the gIrl, who was taken from
the bottom Of the river. An inquest was Immediately
called and The iury's verdict was, that the woman
came to her death hy voluntarily drowning herself,
and forcing the children into the wafer. 1t was as
ceriained on examining the witnesses that the woman
had married a man by the name of Michael Connis
only two months before. and that she and her husband
separated IN a week after marriage. The children
were known by the name of Alice and Michael Swa-
ney. II was supposed that they were Irish, and had
been living for some time before ON the canal line

How Much BRANDY IA correspondent of the Tri-
bune comments upon the instructions issued by the
Medical Council of New York and the recommended
ton Of "a little brandy and water" He asks. show
much a little brandy and water isl To which the
Tribune replies, that having a sort of outsiders faith
in homeopathy, he should advise three drops Of BRAN
dy in a bucket Of water, and that a spoonful Of the
mixture be- put up into another bucket of water, from
which he thinks the patient might safely drink.
The New Orleans Picayune relates an anecdote of
a man in that city who being seized with the prernon-
tory symptoms, was advised to take an ounce Of
brandy a day, but having no scales in which to weigh
1t he luckily recolleeted that eight drains make an
ounce, accordingly took eight stiff horns, and told
The doctor that he fell ''much better"

WET BRICKS Few people, except builders. are
aware Of the advantages of wRiting brick before lay
ing them. A wall twelve inches thick, built up OF
good mortar. with brick soaked well, is stronger, in
every respect. than one sixteen inches thick, built dry.
The reason of this Is that if the bricks are saturated
with water, they will not abstract from the mortar
the moisture which is necessary to its crystelization,
and on the contrary, they will unite chemically with
the mortar, and become as solid as a rock. On the
other hand, If the bricks are put up dry. they imHedi-
ately take all the moisture from the mortar, leaving
it too dry to harden and the consequence il that when
a building of this description is taken down. or tum-
bles down of its own accord, the mortar falls from it
like 50 much sand.

ORIGIN OF FeGs.-The very common but mistaken
idea that he fog. which we see Of an evening hang
ing over low meadows and by the sides Of streams,
arises very naturally from our first observing it in
low places, and, as the cool of evening advances, re-
marking that il ascends to higher land the fact is,
however, not that the damp is ascending, but that,
from the coldness Of those situations they are the first
places which condense The before invisible vapor, and
as the cold Of the evening advances, the condensation
takes place at a higher level. A larger portion Of
The va por ascends to the upper region of the atmos-
phere where it cools and becomes visible to us in the
shape Of clouds; and. increasing in density by cool
ing, they gradually descend nearer the earth, until nj
last. becoming too condensed BY the loss Of heat, they
fall in rain, to be again returned in endless success

A~NEcDoTE OF THE SECOND WAsHINGToN.-A we'll
known Ex-Governor, who resides in one Of The most
pleasant towns of this State, was a candidate for Ma
val Office, at this port, and visited Gen. Taylor, early
In March, to state his case and advocate his applica-
ton. The Naval Officer. 1t is well known, is a sort
of auditor of accounts, and has nothing to do with
duty on board ship. After the worthy Ex-Governor
had made known his case to the ''Second Washing
ton, the latter expressed great soicitude to serve him
and promised to do what he could. though advising
the candidate to make known his case TO Mr.. MERE
DITH, who had these matters in charge. The Ex-Gov-
ernor replied. by stating, that unless the General took
the matter in hard himself. as his predecessors bad
done, there was no hope for him. The General re-
piled kindly and at last, az If to make a desperate
effort to discourage the petitioner, he said ''but,
Governor you are an old man now. How do you
think one Of your years could discharge the duties of
an office which will require you to be daily getting
on board the Uessels at the port Of Philadelphia? The
Governor mizzled.

THE CosT OF DIGNlTY.-The Philadelphia Bulletin,
in the Obituary notice Of the deceased Ex-President,
makes this impressive comment:
Tho death of Mr.. Polk was probably owing, in a
remote degree, to his assiduous tolls as President.
Determining to execute, as far as possible, the duties
of the Office personally, he devoted his days, and al
most his nights to labor, and the consequence was that
his constitution, originally good. became seriously
impaired. He went into the Office looking hale for
his age he left it prematurely aged. The broken
down old man, with thin white hair hanging from his
brow, who resigned the Presidential chair to Gen.
Taylor in 1919, could scarcely be recognised as the
firm and erect man Of middle age, with hair but
slightly tinctured with silver, who in 1916, assumed
the Executive chair. The disease of which he died,
a wasting d~iorrh9a, is the frequent result of excess
sive anxieties and labors. Had lie never been Presi-
dent he might have lived to a green old age but,
worn down by the responsibility of his exalted sta
ton, he has fallen prematurely, another example of
the price at which power and glory are purchased.
