but before entering the holy place, de-
termined to prepare himselfby thorough
ablution. He approached the river,
threw off his garments and plunged into
the water. No sooner, however had he
elevated his head above the stream than
a new wonder transpired. He stood by
no river, but by the tub, surrounded by
his whole court, and beside the dervise
who had originally advised him to i'm
merse his head. In spite of his astonish-
ment and joy, he could not withhold his
indignation from the base monk, who
had played him such diabolical trick
and had plunged him into so many dan
gers and misfortunes. But the sultan's
establishment was yet more increased
when all his courtiers, after he had rela-
ted his woful adventures, positively de-
clared that he had not stirred one step
from the tub, but bad only just plunged
his head in the water and Immediately
Withdrawn it,"
You, gentlemen" continued the
counselor. are precisely in the position
of the Sultan of Egypt. Had any one,
before the revolution, pointed out what
you were to do during its continuance,
you would not have believed it. Now
that you have Withdrawn your heads
from the tub you are determined not to
acknowledge word Of what you thought,
perceived, and transacted during the Pc
riod of miracles. Should the banshed
Bourbons and their nobility ever be re-
instated in France, venture to wager
that they will consider the whole history
of 1889 not to have been, and like the
Sultan of Egypt, they will joyfully stand
by the tub, and consider their years of
misfortune as the self.delusion of de-
eeitful dream"
The Baron's auditors smiled complac-
emily. "It must be allowed" said some
of them, that the Counselor, in very
many things, has wonderfully proved his
sagacity and foresight But can any one,
in his sober senses, seriously predict the
restoration of the miserable Bourbons I?
That, indeed, belongs to the kingdom of
impossibilities."
"On the contrary" said Stryk, with
a significant shrug of his shoulders, " it
is very possible 20
And, in fact, he lived to see this rota-
ton Of things also take place, and the
political state of Europe to be put into
its former position.

PRESERVING BuTTER.-A patent has
been secured by w. Clark, of London,
for the following method of preserving
butter The butter is first well beaten
in the usual manner after churning, then
placed between linen cloths and submit
ted to severe pressure for removing
whey and water. 1t is completely en-
veloped or covered with clean white pa
per, which is coated on both sides with
preparation of the white of eggs, and
in which fifteen grains of salt are used
for each egg. This prepared paper is
first dried, then heated before fire, or
with hot iron. just prior to wrapping il
around the butter. 1t is stated that but
ter may be kept perfectly sweet without
any salt for two months, when thus treat
ed. if placed in cool, dry cellar. The
submitting of butter to pressure, as de-
scribed, is a good plan, and one which
we recommend to all our farmers. They
can easily practice it with small cheese

The Congressional Globe and Appendix will

revised by the speakers the Messages Of the
President of the United States, the annual re-
ports of the heads of the Executive Departments
the reports Of the Committees of Congress on
important subjects Of general interest, the laws
passed during the session, and copious indexes
to all. They will be printed on a double-royal
sheet, in book form, royal quarto size, each num-
Der containing sixteen pages, averaging 1897
words per page. The whole will make between
100 and 1900 pages. 1t is believed that no

Last year advertised in the Daily Globe for
six months and in about one hundred other
newspapers in the United States reward of

puce book published ut so low a rate, and none
was produced. The large number of copies
subscribed for by Congress, enables me to afford
the debates to subscribers so cheap.

Endemic Diseases

THE HOWARD ASSOCIATION, in view
Il of the awful destruction of human life
caused by Sexual Diseases, and the receptions
practlsed upon the unfortunate victims of such
diseases by Quacks, several years ago directed
their Consulting Surgeon, as CHARITABLE
ACT worthy OF their name, to open Dispen-
sary for the treatment of this class of diseases,
in all their forms, and to give MEDICAL AID
VICE GRATIS to all who apply by letter.

extreme poverty, to FURNISH MEDICINES
FREE OF CHARGE. 1t is needless to add
that the Association commands the highest
Medical skill of the age, and will furnish the
most approved modern treatment.
The Directors of the Association in their An
nual Report upon the treatment of Sexual Di-
seases, express the highest satisfaction with the
success which has attended the labors of their
Surgeons in the cure of Spermatorrhea, Semin-
al Weakness, Gonorrhna, elect, Syphilis, the
vice OF Onanism or Self-Abuse, Diseases of the
Kidneys and Bladder, &C., and order contin-
uance OF the same plan for the ensuing year.
The Directors, on review of the past, feel
assured that their labors in this sphere of benev-
olent effort have been of great benefit to the
afflicted, especially to the young, and they have
resolved to devote themselves, with renewed
zeal, to this very important and much despised
ca use.
An admirable report on Spermatorrhea, or
seminal Weakness, the vice of Onanism, Mas
or Self-Abuse, and other diseases of
the Sexual organs, by the Consulting Surgeon,
will be sent by mail lin sealed envelope,
FREE OF CHARGE, Or receipt of two
STAMPS for postage. Other Reports and
Tracts on the nature and treatment of Sexual
diseases, diet, de-, are constantly being pub
lished for gratuitous distribution, and will be
sent to the afflicted. Some of the new remedies
and methods OF treatment discovered during the
last year, are of great value.

A LARGE CHorR-wibsom erpense.-
The choir at the popular services at St..
Pauls, London, comprises some 500 in
dividuals, and includes some of the fin
est ameteur singers in London, of both
sexes. With the exception of the leader,
the whole of them are altogether unpaid,
and render their services from pure de-
votion to ecclesiastical vocal music
They are all persons to whom music is
simply pleasing recreation many of
them are in circumstances of ease and
affiuence, some being members of one or
other of the learned professions and it
is beyond doubt the finest, as it is the
largest choir ever organized in any place
of public worship.

private life, and was entirely disconnect-
ed with public affairs, but he retained the
distinction he had won, and especially
the reputation of clear, sagacious, and
far-sighted politician. All the great
changes in national governments, it was
alledged, his wisdom had enabled him to
foresee long before their occurrence, and
with unfailing certainty to predict them
Consequently, people generally were inn
pressed with a kind of superstition re-
specting him, and were DESTROYS Of OBJ
tanning his opinion of the future.
AS he was once complmented upon
his rare gift, he could not forbear from
smiling. Among the vulgar" said he,
"a man may acquire with absolute ease
the reputation of forseeing future events
When the rest of the world are all chat
ing each o Their with blind and angry i'm
patience, the man Of cool temperament
and sound understanding perceives the
true state OF things.
And is it in your power to impart
your faculty of prediction ?" enquired
one Of his admirers.
1t is very possible, was the ex-coun-
selor's automatic reply. In order to
interpret the future you must look back
wards and not forwards. Backward in
the past hangs the prophetic mirror; but
those who are in authority dislike to look
therein, and besides their sight is i'm
paired, and instruction from old lessons
prevented by memorials, eulogies, and
diplomatic papers,
But what have you to say of this
present time %
1T cannot continue AS it is" said the
old man, and this prediction is as GER
tain as death ITSELF"
"What J" said his interlocutors, " do
you think national disturbances and rev.
olutions are not yet ended, although the
conjurer who produced them is now made
the companion of the rats and mice of
St. Helena Will he again return ? or
do you believe that another like him will
appear and raise similar spectres ?"
The Baron shrugged his shoulders.
" 1t is very possible. Besides, the rest
less spirit now in st. Helena did not ex-
cite the American or the French revolu-
tons, but ne had those elements which
promote and hasten revolutions among
men, because, on account of his dynasty,
he fought against truth, civilization, free
dom and right, not only as existing among
the French, but among all people, and
which consequently excited all. Men
will again endeavor to establish horror
and follies by force of arms, they will
endeavor to establish the inquisition, tor
ture and papal nunciations, religious big
otry and persecution. diplomatic tricks,
privileges and perukes, political proscrip-
ton, titles of nobility, ribbons and gar
tiers, dust brooms, holy alliances and &C.
clesiastical and despotic censorship of
the press, and in fine all the old abuses
and follies by which hierarchies and
monarchies have sought to make their
tyranny eternal. So it was in the time
of Franklin and Washington, in the time
of the Bastile, in the time of Charles l..
and Philip II. The same causes will
produce the same results. Never have a
doubt of that.

THE Shelby Courier says that the coun-
ty seat of that county contains but one
family, that there are no county offices,
and that to transact business with the
county Judge person has to travel from
the county seat five miles in one direc-
ton, to reach the county treasury FIVE
miles in another direction, and to the
sheriff's Office FIVE miles in still another
course. So that to transact business
with those offices requires Is miles of
travel. They are about to vote on the re-
moval to Harlan.

THE PRINCE AND THE STATE.

THE PRINCE AND THE STATE.
The reigning prince, now again enjoy.
ing the hereditary privileges Of his fam
lily, minated one day to the Baron, thai
many regarded him as political flatter.
er, because in all the alienation of rul.
ers, he had constantly retained his credi,
and position, and that it was thence ar
gued he had been actuated by no exclu
slye)y and Interchangeable devotion to
any.
"That is very possible" said The
counselor with augmentation but i'm
mediately recollecting himself, he added,
and with truth. II was always a true
servant to my country"
:" That is rude contradiction !" ex-
claimed the sovereign, chow can you
proclaim yourself true servant of the
country. when to-day you serve legiti-
mate prince and tomorrow you are at
taehed TO the court Of usurper? Can
there be honesty in such course %
1t is very possible" persisted the
Baron. because always endeavored to
be The servant Of the country, and not
the servant Of the prince. Under illegit-
innate and erilminded rulers, every hon
est friend Of his native land should feel
double duty to faithfully serve the state"
What state % said the sovereign
81 speak of government. can you sep
arate that from the state ?''
But, certainly. gracious Sire." said
the counselor. The person may be sep
arated from the government"
Tho Prince threw whitening look on
Stryk. and said "That speech is revo-
lutionary, and is one which in these times
should not be uttered. Take particular
aotsee. that | and the state are insepara-
bly, the same. You are not the servant
of the state. but my servant for the
state"
The counselor bowed ip silence. AT
ter little time his royal master most
graciously permitted him 70 retire from
his official duties on account Of his age,
but allowed his salary to continue.

CHAPTER V.
ANOTHER PREDICTION.

ANOTHER PREDICTION.
This revolution, however, to a man O
Stryk's mode of thinking, could not be
disastrous, especially as at last he had al.
SO fallen into disgrace with the Napoleon
ic dynasty. The extraordinary political
foresight of the Baron had been related
to Napoleon, and he desired to try it.
Shortly before the departure ofthe French
emperor on his expedition to Russia, one
of his generals visited the Counselor, and
incidentally enquired what he thought
would be the issue of the invasion The
old Baron wondered greatly at the ques
ton, and was unwilling to reply. This
hesitancy in man of the Counselor's
readiness, appeared singular to the gen
eral.
8" think we shall celebrate the new
year in st. Petersburgh," said he, i" but
! Judge from your manner that you au-
CUR i'll of our success in this enterprise"
InvoIuntarily the Counselor, accord
ing to his habit, shrugged his shoulders,
and answered. "That is very possible p
This speech at once brought him into
d.srepule with the prevailing French
power. He was pronounced a visionary
fool, and his name vanished entirely from
the list of Counselors of State. When,
however, the allied powers marched into
France, and destroyed the government OF
Napoleon, and everywhere throughout
Europe overturned the authority he had
established, every one said; "Stryk is
prophet. The fate he has suffered is
that which prophets always receive"
The disgrace he had endured under
the government of the usurper (for so
was suddenly styled the emperor and
king of illegitimate origin brought him
the favor of the Legitimate family, now
again restored. But it was not long be-
fore the frankness Of the Baron's proverb
deprived him anew of royal grace.

PEANUTs.-That excellent journal the
Centralia Press. gives the following d.
rections for planting peanuts: Peanuts
should be planted at corn planting time.
A warm, sandy soil is best. Plant two
or three peas to the hill, and the hills
eighteen inches apart. Each joint will
produce large cluster Of fruit. Dig af-
ter the first frost in Autumn. Keep the
ground mellow. and all the weeds and
grass destroyed"
