Rev. II. A. Edison, addressing the
teachers Of the public schools at Indian
apolis, recently, on the subject of the
English language in the Hoosier capi-
tai, enumerated a large number of the
peculiar forms of speech prevalent there.
Prominent among them is the use of the
word at. For example, "Where do
you live at?" 'Where did you get a cold
at?' The word 60 is used for intend, a.
4 did not go for to do it, II didn't GO
to CO. The word like is used in the
sense Of rs though, He talks like he
was crazy Watch out Is the usual SYM
onym for lookout or he on your guard.
Just is a pet word, 1T is just too bad,
Il am just glad School takes up is
used in the place Of school opens; and
school has fetched to instead of school
has begun. 4 don't guess shall co. is
the common way of saying II guess l

General Harney as a Runner.

General Harney, who Is now sixty
seven years Of age, Is six feet three
inches in height, and is a. straight as
an arrow, and In his younger days used
to excel every Indian on the plains with
whom he came in contact In running,
jumping and wrestling. He Is know n
universally known among the Indian.
~ the "fast runner" He tells us he
was never badly pressed but once, and
that was many years ago when he was
encamped ut the Mandan village, ON the
Missouri river. The Indians had
brought in their fastest runner, aud
challenged the General to run. All tht
tribes In that part OF the country were
present, and all were in hight glee,
thinking they had sure thing. Gene
raj Harvey prepared himself and went
about half mile from camp, across a
ravine, which was as near as the Indi-
and met them. The Iudians were I'D
confident Of winning the race that they
bet everything they possessed on the re-
suit, and the officers Of Harney's COM
mand also backed their favorite to the
fullest extent. The Indians would bet
q buffalo robe against plug of tobacco,
or poney against few pounds Of su.
gar and coffee. The odds they consider
ed i'm their favor. The distance run was
eight hundred yards, and one from
each side ~ start them, and a. judges OF
the race. The Indian got almost fifteen
feet the advantage Of the General on the
start, but supposing that he could beat
the Indian easily, he did not mind It ut
first, but it was u long distance to gain,
and by putting forth his utmost efforts
and starting every nerve he only beat
the Indian three feet. The Indian drop.
ped upon the ground at the end of the
race exhausted, and was so much cha
grlned at his defeat, that he would, un
der no circumstances, come near the
General again. The General would nc.
cept only a few trifing things for hi.
winnings, but gave tho best back to this
Indian. From that time he has been
known among the Indians rs "the
fastest runner,' and his influence IL In
proportion to his popularity.

TORTOISE SHELL.-A correspondent iii-
quires As to the production and manu-
facture Of tortoise shell. 1t Is the pro-
duction Of a marine tortoise or turtle
generally known rs the '.llawk's bill. -
The shell SO called, Is in reality only
the outward covering of the shell proper,
and Is found simply as scales, or outer
plates. These are removed by the ap-
plication of fire.. The turtle Is caught
and secured to the ground, when light
fire Is built Oh his back, which loosens
the plates SO that they can be removed
by knife. The animal Is then let free
and the separate plates are in time re-
placed by solid plate or shield. The
SHELLS rarely removed from animals
weighing less than 100 or 10 pounds, as
it is too thin for use in the arts. The
shell is manufactured into various arti-
cles by being softened in hot water
which renders it nearly plastic. 1t is
largely manufactured in Providence, II.

A Calculating Swain.

"A cHecFIui STORY IL nOraCeO' OI
fellow from the rural districts, who
attended the examination Of scholars ut
New London, and brought his girl
along with him in II wagon; but when
the time for dinner came, instead Of 60
ing with her to the hotel, rs the others
did, he went with her to the shed where
his horse was hitched, and took out
pumpkin pie. "Come, Celia" said he
to his girl, .'let's have dinner. Fact is
they charge so monstrous high at the
hotel that don't feel like submittin' to
their extortion. I guess we can make
as good IL meal rs we need out here,'
Cecilia having no other resource, as
sisted her beau in his practical protest
against hotel extortions, and swallowed
her share OF the frugal lunch with the
best grace she could command. After
the examination they drove home. There
was toll on the way, and as they came
near it licr prudent lover turned to her,
and said: "Cccelia, now you know we
mayn't be married after all, and as 1
paid the toll one way, I don't consider
it more than fair that you should pay 1t
the other. Cecilia paid the toll, but the
"frugal swain" never went to see her
Sunday nights, any more.
NICE COUNTRY TO LIVE IN.-<The isle
of Spitzenbergen must he nice place to
live in, especially in dog days. Some
body who pretends to know, gives the
following picture Of the frozen delights
of six months winter in that hyper
borean isle: stones crack with the noise
Of thunder; in crowded hut the breath
will fall in flakes of snow; wine and
spirits turn to ice; the snow burns like
caustic; If iron touches the skin it brings
the flesh awayJwith it; the soles of your
stockings may be burnt of your feet be-
fore you feel the slightest warmth from
the fire; linen taken out Of boiling water
instantly stiffens to the consistency Of
board, and heated stones will not pre-
vent the sheets of q bed from freezing
Lf these are the effects Of the climate
within all air-tight, iire-warmed, and
crowded hut, what must they be among
the dark, storm-lashed mountain peaks
outside. This island is nearly north OF
