This set of moves has the signal merit of re-
turning on ITSELF or being endless. Al square Ga
the knight is within a move of square l. With
the route well impressed on your memory, YOU
may make the knight start from any indicated
square on the chessboard. Suppose square %
to be fixed on; you have only TO move to square
~, and so on till square 27 be reached. when the
board will have been completely traversed.
Inc piece which we call bishop is named bv
the French fOu, meaning thereby not "madman," >"
but fool, lester, OF butfoon, as appears AMONGST
other proofs, from a chess masquerade danced
before Henry " in 1907.
"Ihe order thereof was this:-Two men,
masked, spread great cloth chess board, whose
squares were red and white, each about loot
and half in width.
after that the violins sounded, and two
dressed in Spanish costume, each with long
wand In their hand, entered dancing a ballet of a
grave measure, and then placed themselves each
ON camp-stool on opposite sides of the hall.
When they were seated to another air d. bdlet
entered the eight Carnation.coored pawns They
were little children, who danced very prettlly,
and who performed AMONGST themselves n b1ia
OF sundry and diverse figures. AT the last figure
each took rank on his square. The eight white
paWns had also their own proper bdlet differing
in airs, steps. and figures. These took their
places straight in front of the others. The four
rocs made their entry, and, after several figures,
stationed themselves behind the pawns, each on
his proper square. In like manner the knights
danced their entry, and ranged themselves in
their places. Also the FOOLS armed with baubles
and bucklers in hand, with q certain form of
combats and different figures, betook themselves
into their squares"
The Able Roman, in his poem on chess,
says:-
eau jeu dechecs tous les peuples ont mis-
Les animauX COmmuTs dams leur pays:
L'ATabe amet le eger dromadaIre.
E Plndlen Pelephant; quaint a nous,
Peupe ialot, nous motions des tous"
among their chessmen, nations have put the
animals common in their country. The Arab
takes the light drOmedary, and the Indian the
elephant; as for us, a comical people, we employ
fOols.n
Vida, in his Latin poem, "Scacchia ludus,'
which has been greatly admired, calls the
bishops SdgHJe9t JuUeaes, archers. a title very
suitable to their diagonal movements. Among
Charlemagne's chessmen, preserved in the Abbey
OF 81. Denis, the bishop was represented as about
TO let an arrow fly.
Turkish and Arabian chessmen, in obedienS
to religious sCruples, never initiate the forms OF
men or animals. The Able Toderini saw set
made OF oriental agate, enriched with gold. In
Persia he found greater tolerance OF craven
images on chessboards. An elephant (our castle)
had two men on his back and the king was en-
sbrned, as it were, in an elaborate kiosk, oeve-
deTe, or bow er.-LOadOn Society.

Observations Upon WING.

From a readable article in the Cincinnati Com
nleTCtGL on wine, we eXtract:-The e precise origin
OF the Catawba grape is not known, although 1t
is supposed to derive its name from the CataWba
river, in North Carolina. 1t was first brought
prominently into notice about forty years since
by Major John Album, a Well-kno Wn American
wine-grower, who found it in the garden of a
German, near Washington, d. G. The most Cele-
brated grape now grown IN North Carolina is
not the Catawba, but the Scuppernong The
yield OF this variety is prOdigiCus and it is said
that 1000 10 5000 gallons of wine per acre have
been made rom it. This sounds rather apocry-
phal, when il is considered that the average
yield OF the vineyards OF France (the most pro.
life wine country in the world) does not exceed
200 gallons per acre-that, in this ,icinity, it is
an unCommonly fine vineyard which Yields 800
gallons OF Catawba wine TO the acre. Dr. Mosher
gives Buncombe county, North Carolina as the
origin OF our Catawba; but we never supposed
anything halt so good could have come from
Buncombe, which we should rather credit with
such stories as the above about the yield of the
Scuppernong.
There are over one hundred varieties Of Ame-
rican grapes, the most of which are of little
value for cultivation. The kinds chiefly grown
in the West are the CataWba, Cape Isabella,
Herbemont and Missouri, the former being by
far the most valuable and successful and in
fact the only one grown on large scale for
wine. Our WINE is quite distinct IN character
from any of European origin, having a peculiar
musky flavor, which is displeasing to many when
first tasted, though preferred by some, and, after
long use relished by most wine drinkers. The
California red wines have become OF late wears
somewhat noted, but they are, in character, less
pure and wholesome than the wines Of Ohio.
The American wines are none of them rich in
centage OF spirit OF any wine in the world. The
following table now shows the relative percent
age of alcohol IN some of the principal wines in
use:-

THOROUGHLY D1sMTEcrED DIR. Charles
Brockhausen, assistant physician at the City
Hospital in st. Louis, Mo, having finished
his rounds through the hostital wards one day
last week, was about to proceed to the cholera
tents, but before doing 50 concluded to take a
glass Of what he termed metaphorically ssdis-
infeetant," but what in the valar is known as
brandy. There happened to be on the shelf
two demijohns very similar in appearance,
one of which contained brandy, while in the
other was disinfectant know i as chloride of
zinc. The doctor hastily mixed him pota-
ton and swallowed it at a draught. His SEN
sations after taking it were peculiar He per
ceived at once that he had taken his disin-
fectant.o Of the wrong bottle. He commu-
nicated without loss Of time with two brother
Esculapians, who, by the timely administra-
ton Of antidotes, neuhalized the action Of the
poison and saved his life. DR.. Brockhausen
has no fear Of catching the cholera for some
time to come. He deems himself thoroughly
