A U4unhords Brains.-The startling
doctrines taught in "louman's Basis OF
Prohibition" are fully corroborated by the
following passage from the Boston Medical
journal
Hayti, BY far the greatest antagonist Of
the age, used to say, that he could distin-
uuish in the darkest room, by one roke of
The scapel, the brain of the inebriate from
that of tie person who had lived soberly.-
Now and then he would congratulate his
class UPON the possession OF drunkard's
brain, admirably fitted, from its hardness
and more complete preservation, for the
nurpuse of demonstration. When the an
taoonist wishes to preserve human brain
for any length of time, he effects his object
by Keeping that organ in vessel OF alcohol.
From a soft PUPPY substance,it Them becomes
comparatively hard but the inebriate, an
ticipating the antagonist, begins the endu-
ring process before death-begns 1t while
the brain remains the concecrated temple OF
the soul-while its delicate and gassamar
tissues still throb with tho pulse OF heaven
born light. Strange inatuatlon, thus 20
desecrate the godnke Terrible enchant-
ment, that dries up all the fountains OF gen
erous feeling, petrites all the tender hu-
manities and sweet charities OF life, leaving
only the brain of lead and a heart OF stone.

DoMEsrIC TRAAEDY.-A man named Thos.
Faulkner, Of Halifax county, Virginia, VINO,
while intoxicated had a habit of amusing
himself by frightening his wife, carried his
Joke little too far few days since. The
Halifax Echo says:
On this, as on previous occasions, ne de-
Cared his intention of hanging himself
This he had done before, and had tied the
rope to the joist and then around his neck,
always taking care, however, to have it long
enoug h, so that in stepping from the chair,
box or whatever he used on the occasion to
elevate himself, he would easily reach the
floor. On this occasion he tied the rope too
short, and when he stepped from his eieva-
ton, instead of reaching the floor, broke his
neck.

Clarksville chronicle. (Clarksville, Tenn.) 1857-1865, 1860-11-02

GfzS~ In the way of farm and garden products
the display at the Fair was very fine. For our sta
pie products, wheat corn and tobacco, the premi-
ums were awarded to Mr.. w. L. Hitter Mr.. George
Stacker, and Messrs. N. B Dudley and L. A. John
son. Mr.. Dndcy's premium was for tobacco suita-
Gle for manufacturing and Mr. Johnson's for that
suitable for stemming. The only other competitor
for the tobacco premium, we believe, was Mr., j. C.
Wilcox, who got the certificate. The premiun had
been awarded 10 HMM fact the blue ribbon had
been tied on--and after this was done, Johnson's
came in, and the premium was changed from Will
cox's to bis.
Clarksville chronicle. (Clarksville, Tenn.) 1857-1865, 1860-11-02

HEA- There was shown at our Fair one of the
finest specimens of painting and ornamental naid
work that we have ever seen, anywhere. 1t was
the front-door of Dr. Finley's new residence on
Madison Street. 1t is most elegant piece of wood
work. the outer side of which is painted, in a style
that cannot be exceled while the inner side is beau
tifully inlaid, with some fine material the compost
ton Of which we do not know. This ornamental
work and painting were done by Mr.. Adamson, the
well known decorative painter, and the door was
entered for premium by him. Its superiority over
any Other work of the kind on exhibition was man.
fest and the Judges had decided to give it the pre-
MUM, when it was accidentally mentioned by a
gentleman present, that it was Dr. Finleys door
and therefore, under some rule of the Association.
the Judges decided that they could not give it the
premium! Five out of the seven Judges unhesita-
tingly pronounced it superior to any other such
work there and yet under the rule referred to- they
had to give the premium to another.
