The Weather.

[uO " SSsbuSII
Wisconsin has been proyerbial ever since it's
settlement, for its fine fall seasons. The pres
ent month of November has not been unlike
September in the Eastern States. Had our
extreme mild fall weather been accompanied
with rains instead of drouth, much of vegi-
tation would now be vigorous. AS it is, it is
feared the unusual warm weather has had a
damaging effect upon fruit trees. The Mil
waukee Wisconsin of Monday says:
The remarkably warm weather, as we pre-
dicted, is having bad effect on the trees in
this vicinity, and is starting them out as
spring weather does. We saw trees Friday
the buds of which were an inch in length, and
growing rapidly. Nursery men tell us that if
this weather continues week longer, the
buds will burst into well developed leaves. 1t
is feared much damage will be done to fruit
trees in the State"

city from the east, and learning, on her way
here. of the wonderful results of Smiths Sal

it set the children to laughing, and one little

Walking Mania

Since Edward Payson Weston undertook his
great pedestrian feat, of walking from Port
land to Chicago, tall walkers are turning up
in various quarters, Walking feats are des-
tined to have great run for some time to
come. 1t would not be surprising if even the
women should catch something of the spirit
ofwalking. Ifso, it would work a wonderful
revolution in their physical condition. Amer
lean women, it is said, are the poorest walk
ers in the world; their dissemination to this
exercise is greater than in any other nation +;
hence their weaker physical developement.-
Weston may yet prove great public benefac-
tor, if his example shall tend to difruse pas
sion for walking among men and women.--
Perhaps We shall see ladies walk . couple of
miles ofan afternoon, who dare not now un-
dertake half that distance without calling
carriage. Great good may yet come out of
this walking business. We shall see.

DIR. PRICE.-This able analytical physician
and scholarly gentleman, who for the past
eight or ten years has visited Niles, is in orr
judgment the best travelling physician that
has ever visited this State. He deals fairly
and frankly with all his patients never prom
ising relief or permanent cure unless he is
perfectly confident that either can be accom-
plished, and never encouraging the expense
of a trial where there is no prospect of doing
good. Were we the unfortunate victim of any
of the diseases which he makes speciality,
no matter how strongly the destroying hand
had laid hold, we should loose no time
IN consulting him, feeling confident that his
vast medical knowledge would be able to en-
sure us temporary relief if not permanent
cure. And our candid advice to all suffering
humanity, within the circuit of his travels, is
to go and do likewise that you may not re-
pent when too late.

In Dean Swift's time a tailor near him took
into his head that he was divinely called to
interpret tbs prophecies, especially Revela-

sion to declare the word of the Lord to the
Dean, and bright and early next morning he
was on his way to do it. Through his glass
door the Dean saw him coming and surmis-
ell his errand. Putting on a grave, studious
air, and opening his Bible to Revelations X,
with fixed attention he awaited the proph-
cts approach. The door opened. and in an
unearthly voice it was announced: Dean

Headquarters Second Military District,

CHARLESTON, s. c., May 20, 1867.
GENERAL ORDERS,
No. 25.
1t appears from sundry petitions and official
representations that the present scanty supply of
food in the Carolinas is seriously diminished by
the large quantity of grain consumed in numerous
dstilleries, put up and worked in defiance OF the
revenue laws of the United States 1t is represen-
ted that few or none of the requirements of law
are observed in any of these establishments; that
the officers of the internal revenue service while
endeavoring to assess and collect the whiskey tax
frequently treated with disrespect and some
times menaced with violence; and that when
offenders are prosecuted in the civil courts and
violations of the internal revenue laws indisputa
bly, proved juries fail to convict the parties it is
further shown that this unlawful traffic makes
food dearer in places where large numbers are de-
pending upon public and private bounty; that
the Government is, besides, defrauded of large
amount of revenue; that the authority of its civil
officers is brought into contempt; and further
more, that the mischief complained of tends to
increase poverty, disorder and crime; therefore,
in the exercise of the authority vested in the
Commanding General it is ordered that,
I. The dstillation or manufacture of whislkey
or other spirits from grain is prohibited in this
Military District. Any person so engaged or en-
ployed will be deemed guilty of misdemeanor.
The possession of a still or other apparatus for
this purpose will be considered presumptive evil
dence OF violation of the revenue laws, and the
party or parties using the same, on whose
premises, or in whose possession the same may be
found, will be arrested and brought to trial before
military tribunal composed of the Commanding
officer OF the Post and two officers of the army
next in rank on duty within the territorial limits
of the Post. If the exigencies of the service do
not permit the detail of other officers, that fact
will be duly certified and the Post Commander
will hear and determine the case.
II. The penalties punishments and forfeitures
prescribed by the several acts of Congress for dis
tilling or manufacturing whiskey or other spirits
in violation of the revenue laws, will be imposed
and executed by the military tribunals hereby au-
thorized.
III. No sentence extending to imprisonment,
forfeiture of STILLS liquor or other property, or
the imposition of a fine or other penalty viii be
carried into effect until reported to these Head
quarters and approved by the Commanding Gen.
era1
". All troops of the United States, Magis-
trates, Sheriffs, Constabes, Police and Others in
authority required, and all citizens are solic
tied, to be vigilant in detecting and prompt in
giving information of the violation of these or
ders. Commanding officers will be held respon-
sible for their enforcement. flflsi q
