ANYBODY BUT THE NEGRo.-Tba
Memphis Appeal does not like the
idea Of employing negroes as labor
ers, since they do not vote the Con
sevatiye ticket, and thinks that even
Northen men would be preferable
But it will be no easier to control thu
votes OF these men than those of tho
negroes, so that the logic Of the An
peaTs argument for crowding out the
negro is very poor. 1t says:

A COOP RECoRD.-Lemuel Rich.
ardson, the great fox hunter of Yer.
mont, in reply to inquiries, gives the
following statement of his exploits:
Between 1921 and 1847, he killed.
with hound and gun, ia foxes, having
very little aid from others; since that
he has taken 675 in traps-making
1889 foxes in all. OF other game
he has in the same time killed three
deer, twelve fishers. five otter, and
coons, muskrats and minks, too MANY
in number to mention.-Benniag ton

An ENORMOUS SPIDER.-A sudden
panic fell upon the worshippers On
Easter Day in large church at Lis.
bon. An enormous spider was sud
denly seen to descend to an ancient
web that is said to have existed for
many years. The creature was 50
formidable that the women began to
scream, and scene of general terror
and excitement followed. When
Arachne was captured she was found
to be, with legs extended nearly five
feet long. She weighed six pounds.
A little daughter of Mr.. Martin,
of Casville, Barry county, Mo-, only
eight years old, deliberately shot and
killed brother of four years old, a
short time since. She said she killed
her brother " because he pulled her
flowers" and declared if the other
children pulled any more of them,
she would shoot them, too" Her
father found the infant murderess
besmeared with blood, dragging her
mangled and bleeding brother from
the room into the yard, when she let
go of her victim, and turned and
glared with a savageness said to be
truly frightful. A physician intimates
that the girl is insane.
Fly Loo.-An Alexandria paper
says =" A new game, as exciting as
help your neighbor," called 1" fly,
loo" has of late been introduced
into this city. 1t is less objectiona-
bic than some games Of chance, in
that there is no chance for cheating.
1t may be played by any reasonable
number of persons. The players
names are written together, and
lump Of sugar laid on each. Then
commences the eager excitement of
waiting for fly to light, and when
it does so, the name of the player
under the sugar has to treat all round.
1t is not very heightened game, but
it makes fun"
CURE FOR DYsENTERY.-Dr Page,
of Washington, communicates to the
Republican of that city the following
t simple remedy, long known in family
practice, and which was recently tried
in the camp of the New York 22d
regiment, where there were from
t eighty to one hundred cases daily,
and with rapid cures in every case:
Recipe-In teacup half full of
vinegar, dissolve as much salt as it
will take up, leaving a little excess
of salt at the bottom of the cup
Pour boiling water upon the solution
till the cup is two-thirds or three
: quarters full. A scum will rise to
} the surface, which must be removed,
= and the solution allowed to cool.
Dose-Table spoonful three times
} a day till relieved.
The rationale of the operation Of
:, this simple medicine will readily oc-
l cur to the pathologist, and in many
L hundl ed trials | have never known it
to fail in dysentery and protracted
: diarrhea.
