WORMS IN STRAWBERRIES. = Mr..
David La1don, Of jackson County,
Michigan, writes as follows to the Gin
einnati Commercial: One of your
lady subscribers gave me the follow
ing to send to you for publication.
Two years ago | gathered some large
berries from small vines Of Wilson's
Albany. On examining one of the
largest, | found three worms coiled
up inside. / continued the eXamina-

twenty-four worms, very full of legs
usually called thousand Legged"
wOrms-and more than an inch in
length. There were no apparent scars
on the berries. 1t has been stated
that persons have died from eating
strawberries put up in tin cans. May
not worms in the berries have caused
the deaths ?
During the past few days quite a
large number of our citizens have
been taken sick with cholera morbus,
and many of them attribute the disease
to strawberries which they had eaten.
We do not know that worms have
been found in the berries, but we adj

This is strawberry festival season,
and the festivals make way with the

IETTER From INDIANAPOLIS:

The sensation created by the pres
ence of Mr.. Hammond, the revival
ist, has not yet entirely disappeared
from our community. The pastors of
the different churches are yet holding
meetings, many of them being attend
ed with encouraging results. This
community has, perhaps, never been
so thoroughly pervaded by religious
activity and iDfuence-an influence
which set in during the autumn
months, and has since gradually in
creased. As a result, many have
been gathered into the various
churches, church life greatly quick
ened, the ministry emboldened, and
the Sabbath Schools much enlarged
and enlivened. The churches now in
their separate capacities are nobly
vieing with each other In pushing for
ward the work in their respective
spheres.
The old Wesley Chapel people have
all gone into the UniversaIist Church
including the Pastor, Rev. G. N.
Sims, formerly of your city. The
Universalists, however, have onlytaken
them on probation, and it is conf

THE gratifying announcement Is
made in Washington that no Def
cheney Bill will be presented to Con-
gress next Winter by any of the Ex-
eeutive Departments. This news may
be classified as too good to be true.
How will Congress be able to get
along without a Deficiency Bill? If
the Departments are confined to the
appropriations for their spending
money, what will become of the bar
naeles which are usually provided for
in the Deficiency Bill2 The Secre-
tary of the Treasury has reduced the
number Of clerks in his different Bu-
reaus to the exact quota allowed by
law, and the other departments are
preparing lists of employees to be dis
charged at the end of the fiscal year.
Washington promises to become an
unhealthy locality for drones, and IN
less Congressmen step in, which they
are quite likely to do, to stop this kind
of work, by the beginning of the next
year, the government decks will be
clear of idlers and hangers on, and the
crew have nothing to divert their at
tention from their legitimate duties.

GKN. FRANK P. BLAIR's opinion of Gen.
Grant has not changed. In recent speech
in New York he said:
HHe is a man of stubborn character he
may not be very broad in his views, he
may be narrow and obstinate, but ne is
resOlute and unflinching-and the mCsi
dangerous man the country contains al
this hour. He has q will that knows no
swerving from any plan that he has enter
ed upon. His courage is most determined,
and though he may not have great capaci
ty, or very great intellect, yet when he
has once entered upon the pursuit of an
object, he maintains it with invincible
courage and untiring labor. In my judg-
ment, so far from being a man at whom
we ought to scoff, and treat with contempt
he is man who ought to be carefully
waiched-a man of whom we should fear
the worst things. A man who has pur
pose and has power to back him very fire.

This man, in my judgment, is one of that
class of men. / consider him q man of
sluggish nature, he Is fond of pleasure and
devoted to enjoyment and will occupy
himself with those things to the exclusion
of business. But when a crisis in our af-
fairs occurs you will find he will apply
himself to business with far more industry
than is agreeable to the country. Zap

gain such power, and be enabled by COM
binations of army power and the negroes
in the South to overcome the Northern
people,"
Grant may be q Cesar in disguise, in
the qualities of cunning and determination,
but In no other qualities. This session OF
Congress will develop who is master of the
situation. sE ssA -tt
