ADULTERATIoNs OF DRUGs, COFFEE
AND PEPpER.-Hunt's merchants Mag
azine states that Or. Bailey, during the
nine months he held the office of exami-
ner under the government of the United
States, rejected at the port of New York
over lifty-five tons of spurious or adul-
terated drugs and medicines Of foreign
origin. From paper in the London
Lancet on the adultera,ion of coffee, it
appears that microscopic examination
of fhirtyJour differen, qualities sold in
London, showed that, with three excep-
tions, the whole were adulterated. -
Chicory. it is stated, was found to be
present in fhirfy-one, with the frequent
addition of roasted corn, beans or pota-
toes, and in some cases the quantity of
coffee was not more than fifth of the
whole article. Heavy fines have been
recently imposed by the London court of
inland revenue on several grocers for
the adullera,ionof pepper. The pepper
was adulterated with rice, the propor-
tion of which was proved, was about
one-taird. ". .a.a ". e@

DEATH OF CoMMopoRE BARRoN.-
The Norfolk papers announce the death
in that city, on the 2lst ult., of Com
modore James Barron, senior officer of
the United States navy, in the eighty
third year Of his age. He entered the
service the 9th of March, 1898, and his
commission bears date May 22d. 1899.
The Norfolk Herald says: ~aa
"Unsil his late illness, which commen-
ced its attack about fve months ago, the
weight of years had bu, slightly bowed
his tall, majestic person, or dimmec the
lustre of his bright and intellectual eye,
or paled the florid glow of health on his
manly cheek; and as he moved in our
midst an object Of veneration and love
to his friends, and Of admiration and in
terest 10 all who beheld him, the antici-
patton of health to sustain him yet ma
ny years longer was fondly indulged.-
But the charm is dispelled, and he has
fallen as shock of corn ripe for the
sickle. He departed in full possession
of the faculties OF his mind-serene, re-
signed, and without, pain.''

AGRICULTURE.
Selections from the Prairie Farmer.
How to Have Good Pie Plants.

In such visits as we have made abroad
in the country during the past few sum-
mers we have been astonished at the
samples of pie plant we have seen. In
this city there is no difficulty in getting
1t to give stems as large in circumference
as the biggest sort of hoe handles, and
two feet in length TO the leaf from the
ground-and very little difficulty in get
ting the same sized stems three feet in
length, and no more in having stems fif-
teen inches in length of the size of a
mans wrist. On looking for such a.
broad for two seasons past we have
found some with stalks eight inches long.
and less in size than small mans
thumb, called mammoth while the com.
mon size was that of young lady's
finger. What is the matter! After all
the talk about pie plant cannot we have
any better than that! or die we not 60 in
the right direction TO find it! ..s -...
: Pie plant wants very rich soil; il is a
glutlon of feeder. 1t loves soil filed
with manure from the cow yard, the
horse stable, the hog pen, and the recep-
tacle Of nigh. soil. 1t wants, moreover,
a dsep soil. Its vast roots poke abou,
in the mellow loan with no fear of get.
ting through into China, and then send
out their runners in all directions, greedy
as tribe of caterpiliars. 1t wants more
over moist soil; we'll prepared and
this it must and will have or it will not
grow to any size worth talking about;
and the wan. of this is probably the rea-
son why we have found such as we have
described. 80 .a# ..... -as-
Now we have project for growing it
as big as it need ever to grow, in the
dryest of gardens-not without little
trouble, for no good thing comes on any
such conditions. #" -. ..n ..... -.
Plant it in rather shady situation, in
an enriched soil. Then cover the earth
about the roots TO the depth of two in
ches with straw, chips, or refuse. Next
get an old barrel with both heads out
and plant it, one foo, from the pie plant,
on end. Then fill it full Of manure,
good and strong, so tightly trod together
that it will take while for water to 90
through, but not so tight as to hold it,
Then each night pour into this barrel a
pail of water--the soap suds saved on
washing days would be the best of any.
Follow this up through May and June
and if the leaves will not grow it will be
because they cannot. ...
1t is needless, however, to do this with
thellittle spinding stuff commonly grown.

Foreign Items.

A French work recently published
contains an interesting account of the
rage for gaming at the Court of Louis
XIV. Madame de Montespan was in
the habit Of losing SO or $4,000. She
once bet 100000 upon three cards and
won. On one Christmas eve she lost
100000. A courtier named Dargeau
had such knowledge Of Algebra, that he
calculated the chances during the shut
fling of the cards, and often won cnor-
nous sums by it.
The heirs of Louis Philippe are about
TO offer for sale the gallery of modern
pictures in the Palais Royal.
Public attention has been greatly ex-
cited there, in Constantinople, by the
discovery of an immense treasure of
Greek manuscripts, of the highest an.
tlquty, found by learned Greek of the
name of Simonides, in cave situated at
the foot of Mount Athos. According to
this account, the importance of this dis
covery is incalculable, since it brings to
light vast quantity of celebrated orks
quoted by ancient writers, and hitherto
deemed entirely lost. They furnish, as
may be imagined, an extensive list Of
proper names calculated to throw great
light upon obscure periods OF history
Among these precious volumes, which
are composed Of very thin membranes,
(the nature of which is not stately filed
with characters, some are calculated to
give complete Interpretation of HERO

having already successfully applied them
to the Interpretation of the inscriptions
engraved on the obelisk of the Hippo
drome at Constantinople.

Church Gambling.

One Of our religious exchanges tells a
story in relation to church gambling
which contains lesson worthy Of re-
pea,ing. A member of a church went
TO his pastor and en,Ieated his personal
intercession with favorite son, who had
become ruinoasly addicted to the vices
Of gambling. The pastor consented. and
visiting the young man found him in his
chamber. He commenced his lecture,
bu, before he had concluded, the young
man laid his hand upon his arm, and
drew his attention TO pile of splendid
volumes that stood upon his dressing ta-
bic. Ea
'Well!' said the pastor, enquiringly.
well, replied the young man, those
volumes were won by me at a fair given
in your church; they were my first ven-
,ure, and but for that lottery, under the
patronage of a christian church; ! should
never have become gambler,

Black Leg i'm Calves.

MEssRs. EDITORS: In looking over a
late No. of the Prairie Farmer | notice a
communication from N. X, of Jackson
vile, saying "can you tell US what will
prevent and cure the black leg in calves!'
There is an old adage that san ounce
OF prevention is worth pound of cure. "
Some four years ago myself ard part
ner brought with us from the south lot
of cows with about twenty or thirty
calves. The calves at about six weeks
old were very fat. The black leg ap-
peared among them and they commenced
dying al the rate Of one or two per day.
Several died before | knew what the dis
ease was. Some Of my neighbors who
were acquainted with the disease inform.
ed me it was the black leg. tried all the
remedies could hear of and great many
experiments-bleeding. purging. &C..
curing none. Some eight or ten oil the
lot having died, commenced searching
for cure or preve"tive. In an old
bound volume Of the Albany Cultivator,
| found communication from some
person, | have forgotten the name, say
ing that garlic was sure preventive If
nsed before the disease commenced. -
The following is the manner of using:
take rope and tie your calf to stake
and with a small pen knife-make a
straight incision lengthwise, three-quar-
ters of an inch long, through the skin on
the under side of the tail, about or 5
inches from the root, then take garlic
pea, or piece of the root. q used the
rool) and insert it, working it downwards
under the skin SO that it will remain
there until discharged by eruption.
l tried the above on my calves nd the
result was that the disease stopped i'm
mediately; but one calf died after apply
ing the remedy--it was sick, and about
as good as dead when the remedy was
applied. Before trying and seeing the
effects Of i'll was somewhat skepiical.
| have seen il tried since and il has prov
ed so far sure preventive. The bes,
time to apply the garlic is when the calf
is about one week old. I'm. X. will try
the above remedy before his calves are
taken with the disease, he need not fear
the black leg in calves. .a.a

An Exciting Scene.

A few days since, on board steam.
er from Memphis TO this city, arrived a
very large crowd of passengers. Our
attention was drawn TO the unusual num-
Der of passengers flocking below on deck;
with the Captain and two or three off,
GERS of the boat, we joined the crowd in
search of an incident to drive away the
monotony of steamboat trip. Upon
arriving at the spot which seemed the
centre OF the excitement, We found a
man in Quaker-like attire sitting upon a
large chest, declaring that it should not
be broken open unless they killed him.
Soon from the chest, as if in distress,
was heard voice, apparently of col
ored person:
"Let me out had rather go back to
massa- --oh, mercy! / can't stay here
any longer" ~. .. ....Ea. .-#
"Look here, my FRIEND" says the
Captain, "you'll have to get off that
chest" a | "
"l'll be darn'd if do" he replied.
"Oh, dear let me out, let me out"
came distinctly from the chest, as if in
apparent suffoca,ion. -@ . n
"Mate," said the Captain, "bring
some men. take that person off thai
chest, and break it OPEN" PSI. -".m
The person showing fight, was seized
by the passengers, all believing he was
carrying off Mr.. Darkey, contrary to
law made and provided. The mate
seized an iron bar and forced it between
the lid and body of the chest.
"Oh, don't, you'll kill me-" says the
stiiled voice; 81 want to ge, out; want
to 60 back; oh, dear shall die"
"Hold out few moments longer"
says good natured phlanthropic per-
son stepping out, "you shall soon be re-
leased" III ua" ..... -..... .
Quite an intense feeling was now raj
sed in the crowd, when the mate forced
off the lid, as il come from the chest an
unearthly, demoniac laugh come from
the old clothes with which it was filled,
and no sign or appearance of any living
thing. Amazement appeared on the
countenances of the before angry but
now bewildered lockers on. We were
shortly after let into the mystery by the
Captain, who informed US of what he
was before aware, but had forgotten, that
the inimiiable Venniloquist, the "Fakir
Of Siva." stood by, an apparent spec.a-
tor of the proceedings. =. .-.. .".s..
We must acknowledge tina, the whole
affair was so natural, and the stifed
voice so complete that we almost con-
cluded supernatural mysterious spirit.
