PLYMOUTH ROCK.--This rock was brought
to this country in the Mayfower, in the year
1892 by the Pilgrims, under directions of Elder
Osman Brewster, who afterwards removed to
Boston, and became an alderman of that CITY
Plymouth Rock was put on wharf where part
of it remains to this day, as people may see, if
they viii take the trouble to scratch the dirt
away. No reason is given for putting the rock
up so far from the water, except it was to keep
it out ofthe wet D. n B. Shurtleff was the
first to land on Plymouth Rock, which he did
without any trouble, because it was very big
one It was on this rock that Governor Carver
first shook hands with Samoset, who said -
b" Welcome Englishmen /" It is recorded that
when Samoset came up Governor Carver asked
him if he was real ingine or only member Of
an ingine company The rock has long been
regarded as a famous place, and great many
things have been written about it. Strangers
coming on the coast always climb to the mast
heads with spy glass to see Plymouth Rock.
The American eagle. for great many years,
used to come and whet his beak on the rock. but
in 1858, Miles Standish in order to keep it
from getting stolen took all there was of it, and
carried it up and put it in front of Pilgrim Hall,
where it remains at the present time, invested
with great interest and an iron fence. The
fence bears the name of all the Pilgrims in cast
iron letters that can't be rubbed out On the
other part of the rock the descendants of the
Pilgrims have landed, probable to save it from
being worn out by the illusions touching it that
are thrown off by Fourth of July orators, and
other patriots.
Plymouth Rock is the corner stone in the
cellar wall of our republican structure, para
goricaly speaking, and the spirit of Liberty sits
upon it with drawn sword in one hand and
the torch of freedom in the other The monu-
ment to the Pilgrim Fathers, commenced by Mr.
Billing, in 1858, upon Plymouth Rock, viii
be three thousand feet above the level of the sea-
and can be easily seen from New Haven, the
palee the pilgrims came from, with the naked
eye Peregrine White the first child born in
Massachusetts,, was born on Plymouth Rock. and
Miles Stanish when John Alden swinded him
out of Priscilla in 1903, sharpened his sword on
Plymouth Rock, is one of the pailadiums OF our
liberty, and if foes invade the shores of Plymouth
at low tide, the people viii throw this rock in
their teeth. 1t is a precious legacy from the
Past to the Present, and from it may be reckoned-
the Pilgrims Progress.

CUEE OF BLACK TONGUE. A Virginia paper
says that the disease known as Black Tongue,
which often proves fatal to cattle in few hours,
has been cured, or prevented, by tarring the
animals noses, and giving mixture Of equal
