The Premjuz N, Ra bies

On the last day Of the National 4sir at Chi
cago, quite novel ceremony took place in the
award Of premiums A German women pre-
sented to the President basket with three
bouncing boys in it, triplets, as entitled to a
premium under the class Of live stock Of that
description. Whereupon General Tilghman,
in his peculiarly happy style addressed the
crowd around the stand as follows:
Fellow citizens of the United States OF Amer
lea, ladies and gentlemen, married and single:
We appear before you on this occasion to award
a premium Of most interesting character. No
country can be great without population; and
how can any country be so great as this, where
we improve upon the old fashioned plan of one
at time. Your speaker, after having served
his country by an addition ofeight in single
numbers, concluded his labors with two at a
time? He is proud to welcome all who have
done likewise. But. although, in agricultural
parlance, we have generally considered oursel-
yes some ponapkins, we are really small potatoes
compared with Mrs. Teresa Onderstroch, the
mother ofthese riplets.
II there has been any doubt about this being
the greatest agricultural fair ever held in the
country, this settles the question. Never was
there an occasion like this before where three
living and healthful babies were presented to
the audience by member Of the official board
might descant for any length of time, upon
such prolific theme; but will conclude by
awarding, on behalf OF the United States Agri-
cultural Society, three spoons to John, Joseph
and William Onderstroch, the infant brothers
in the basket before you. Gothou and do other,
wise. r#
The applause which followed was deafening
and amid shouts OF laughter and cheers for tn,
boys, and band struck up Yankee Doodle. Tbt
parents Of the children were poor, and on taking
the basket around among the throng Of specta
tors there was perfect shower ofdollars, dimes
and quarters in the basket, SO that in addition Il
silver spoon for each of the babies, the happy
parents received between two and three hun
dred dollars. s.--Pldindealr.

GhOlSOM Sells ga Thousand Dollar

1t seems that Gholson was engaged in the
slave trade years before he moved to Ohio.
His sale OF "Davy" and "Ras' and "Ned" and
"Lucy Ann" in the fall Of 1874, was not ia sud-
den impulse, for the proof is, that years before
he was engab ed in selling negroes--seling "hu-
man flesh and blood"--"selling his fellow men"
for base lucre.

ier county, Arkansas, sends us bill of sale
given by Judge Gholson and wife, bearing date
the 9th day ofApril, A. D.184O," for a negro

sold to Hiram Williams, the father of our infor-

EarthuEake at Ravnnna.

a letter from Bayonne of the 30th Novem-
Der, gives the following account of an earth
quake experienced there and in the neighbor-
ing districts
about halfpast twelve yesterday after
noon some violent shocks of an earthquake
were felt at Bayonne. and lasted from eight
to ten seconds. The oscillations proceeded
from the southwest to the northeast The
phenomenon was accompanied by dead
sound, similar to that OF a gon- passing over
a paved road. The weather, which had been
rainy for some days previously, was hot, and
the atmosphere heavy at the moment. A
violent storm broke over the town at half
past three, bat did not last long The infor-
NATION received from various quarters re-
specting the effects prodnced by the phenome-
non, some of them rather serious and some
extraordinary, is too voluminous for publica-
ton. The motion was less evident at Ba-
yohne than at ST. Esprit. where the popua-
| ton were greatly alarmed and where the
church bells began to ring during the shock.
At Bayonne, the kitchen utensils were tossed
about, and 1t is said some chimneys were
seriously damaged. One of the ceilings Of
the Academy gave way, and cracks are vis-
bic In the walls of that ancient building. At
the time the earthquake was felt, the animals
in the town exhibited symptoms of profound
terror. The oxen lowed, and the pavement
il several streets was displaced. On the
rampant of Lachepaillet the earth was twice
raised up and fell again With violent noise :;
the neighborlng houses were not injured
! Notwithstanding the public buildings in
the town were shaken with violence no loss
of life remaius to be deplored The earth
quake was extremely violent both at Biarritz
and at Anglett, particularly in the low
grounds; doors were shut with loud
noise, persons were thrown down, and num-
bers fled from their houses, fearing to be
buried under the ruins. A herdsmau, seeing
his oxen lifted up several times, sought safe
ty in flight Some laborcrs who were dining
under tree, felt the ground under them
rise three times, and were dashed against
each other, as if by violent wind. At tha
time the weather was sefocating and the heat
insupportable. The accounts received a
Bayonne from St Palais and St. Sean Pied
de- Port, state that the shock experienced
there lasted from to 10 seconds. At three
quarters past y, violent shock, accom-
panied by noise resembling the sound o
distant thunder. caused universal pan
amongst the population of ST. Jean Pied de
Port assembled in the market place Th'
violence of the commotion was so great the
one chimney was thrown down, as well a
the tiles from the roofs Of the houses. Th
most solid buildings cracked as If about t.
fall, acd the furniture in the interior Of tn
houses was tossed about. During the oscila
tions, distinct noise was heard similar
that of heavy ball falling down six steps
staircase, step by step.

Scrofula, or Kings Evil,

is a constitutional disease, a corruption of the
blood, by which this fluid becomes vitiated,
weak and poor. Being in the circulation, it
pervades the whole body, and may burst out
in disease any part Of it. No organ Is free
from its attacks, nor IS there one which il may
not destroy. The scrofulous taint is variously
caused by mercural disease, low living. dis
ordered or unhealthy food, impure air, filth
and filthy habits, the depressing vices, and,
ebove all, by the venercal infection. What
ever be its origin, it IS hereditary in the con-
stitu Jon, descending {" from parents TO children
unt the third and fourth generation indeed,
it : ems TO be the rod of Him who says, - l
win visit the iuiqritics of the fathers upon
their children
Its effects commence by deposition from the
blood of corrupt CT ulceFous matter, which, IN
the lungs, liver, and internal organs, IS termed
tubercles in the glands, swellings; and on
the surface, eruptions sores. This foul cor
ruption, which genders in the blood, depresses
the energies of life, so that scrofulous constitu-
tions not only suffer from scrofulous COM
plants, but they have far less power to with
stand the attacks of other diseases; conse-
quently, vast numbers perish by disorders
which, although not scrofulous in their nature,
are still rendered fatal by this faint in the
system. Most of the consumption which de-
climates the human family has its origin directly
in this scrofulous contamination and many
destructive diseases Of the liver kidneys, brain,
and indeed, of all the organs, arise from or
are aggravated by the same cause.
One quarter of all our people are scrofulous
their pe-sons are invaded by this lurking in
fection and their health is undermined by it.
To cleanse it from the system we must renovate
the blood by an Alternative medicine, and in
vigorate it by healthy food and exercise.
Such medicine we supply N
