THE Chinese Sugar Cane is destined to
l. take high stand as an agricultural pro-
duction in this country, for leaving out of
the question the fact (now established that
out Of the Cane, Molasses of excellent quail
ty can be made, it is still crop that should
be grown by every man who tills the soil.
1st-The Cane is very fattening to stock of
all kinds.
2d-The Seeds are good for feeding stock,
for making Bread, Whisky, Brandy, Cider,
Vinegar and also for Brewing.
3d-The yield is beautiful, even on poor
land.
4th-One acre will produce 1877 bushels of
Seed, which has been proven by actual
measurement and certified to by five respec-
table citizens.
5th-The yield of Fodder to the acre is six
times larger than that of corn.
Many other things may be said in favor of
this new and valuable product, but we have
not the space to enumerate. Send in your
orders at once before the supply is limited
and the price increased. These Seed are put
up in bags, containing a peck, q peck, peck
and bushel,-for "a peck, 81, q pect 81 70,

Curious PHYSICAL PHENoMFNoN-A
Young Man Struck Deqt, Dnmb Mm
Blnd.-Ansel Bowen, a young man, re-
sdin. in Westerly, R. l., was the subject
of a ,urious physical phenomenon short
time since. On the 29th of October, hav-
ing some business to transact in another
village, a short distance from Westerly,
he was proceeding to transact it, and be-
fore he entered the place, while walking
along by the road side he suddenly felt
as though dark cloud was passing
athwart has face, and the next instant he
was stricken blind. In moment more
he lost the use of his speech, 50 that by all
his endeavors he was absolutely unable to
utter q single sound.
To crown ALL his calamities were in
creased by the loss of his sense of hear
ing, which instantly left him, and then
he was without the power to see his way,
to call for assistance, or to evade danger
by getting out of the way, not knowing
what was next to happen. He stood like
stone, till luckily one of his companions,
passing that way, saw Bowen, and went
to speak with him, but he received no
answer. He shook him; he turned him
round: but he neither spoken or opened his
eyes, but pointed to his tongue, and anon
to his eyes and ears. He was conveyed
to his home. Pistols were fired near him
without making the least impression. He
was the incarnation of mystery. When
he ate it was with a spoon. When he
walked he was led like blind man.
He kept along in the same situation
seventeen days. At the end of this time,
Sunday morning, Nov. Is, as he was 60
ing to church, the cloud was dissipated
and he again saw as formerly. He went
to church, carrying with him a small
slate on which to write questions and
answers. When the music was begun
the sense Of hearing returned, though
speech came not. During the morning
service he wrote some on the slate, and
when the preacher got through Bowen
returned to his home, rejoiced at the sud
den return Of his senses, and apparently
in as good health as he was when he first
experienced the calamity. We have the
above facts from the physician who at
tended him. Providence (R. ~ 1ri-

DEAru FROM CAMrHENE-A Morn

DEATH FROM CAMpHENE-A MoTH-
ER's DEvoTIoN.--A fearful accident oc-
cusred on Saturday evening, in the lit
tie village of Brooklyn, in Kentucky,
opposite the ~Seventeenth Ward, which
has since resulted fatally. Mr.. Brick
err, his wife, and a little daughter, were
together in their apartment. whom a
large campheue lamp which was burn
ing, exploded. and the blazing fluid was
scattered over every part of the room,
and upon the dress of the child. The
mother, to save her. offspring, caught
her in her arms, and fingiDg her under
Ecath upon the ground, smothered the
fire. Thus she guarded her, needing
not the urgent request of her husband
to arise, until her own dress became ig-
nited from the liquid fire which in extir-
gushing, Mr.. Bricker was himself Sc
verely burned, his arms and hands being
absolutely charred. Tho poor woman
fingered in hopeless agony until Sum-
day night, when she expired, sadly, yet
beautifully, illustrating the self. sacrific-
ing eonstancy OF a mothers love.-Can-
cinnatt Commercial.

cor. SAMUEL

The appointment of this veteran to
the gubernatorial chair of Minnesota,
will Withdraw from among as a gentle
man who has filed a larger space in
Ohio politics, during tho last thirty
years, than almost any of bis cotompo-
raries. During his long, active and eff
fcient service, he has exhibited some of
the features of human nature BY engag-
ing IN occasional embroilments with
those between whom and himself there
should never have existed any other
than friendly feeliugs-yct, take him
/" Ell in all" his great popularity with
the people has been fairly won, and he
will leave Ohio with an army of friends,
equal in numbers and ardent zeal for
his future welfare, to that which any
other man in the State could command.
The 9It. Vernon Banner thus refers
to Lis appointment:-
GooD-The Telegraph informs US
that Col. Samuel Medary has been ap-
pointed Governor of Minnesota. This
is an appointment worthy 10 be made
Col. Meaary il one of the Democratic
aporIies. There is no dronc about him.
Let Mr.. Buchanan's appointments be
made up of the sorkies, and bis admin
fstration will be universally applauded
by the genuine Democracy

Explanation

BY letter or in person, the following
question is daily asked of the under
signed, by persons who have bought his
new medical Salt. How deep should
the quill be dipped into the solution ?"
AnsDcr-Dip as you would a pen into
ink, and a dose is what remains on the
quill. The quantity required is small,
but. the vaccine dose is smaller-aud
the effects of both equally extraordinary.
Il should be remembered, that this salt
is physic for The fluids, aud not the
body. When Jenner announced to the
world his great d~iscovery-of vaccination,
the learned doctors Of bis day, said, it
was a "Hoaxn-and declared hin, to be
a"Quack," "Impostor y and "Hum-
bug.n The undersigned is expecting to
be assailed with similar mild epithets-
but still he humbly believes the dis.
covery of the Antiphlogistie Salt, like
all inrentions and discoveries, is the
mere Development of what always had
existence in the mind of the Great In
finite.
