Texas CASTOR O1L.-We are in re-
ceipt Of a miniature phial of castor oil
from the Gonzales. Texas Manufactor
ing Company. 1t is beautifully trans
parent, nearly as much so as distilled
water, and we do not believe there is a
finer article of the kind in market. We
have no doubt about its odour, and
will take tho. taste for granted. This
company ships about $50 gallons q
week to our city, and has the manu-
lfacturing power to meet heavier de-
jmand, but tile beans cannot be had,
our Southern people cIingiug to their
old delusion that rthere is nothing like
cotton" By and by they must wake
from that.g But as our&ziriend, Il. s.
Walker, the President of the company,
.says,"the high price of cottonahas run
our people crazy on that subject" and
so fields are left untouched If they can
not be put in cotton, wh~reas with d
trifing outlay and mere holiday at
teution they might be made to yield a
veryaemunerative crop-in castor beans.
Our farmers must really look to this.
We cordially congratulate the Con
zafes Company upon their, very fiat
tering success. -

Chinese Superstition.

The Pekin Gazette of July contains
some interesting matter In connection with
Chinese civilization generally, and more
particularly with the treatment of disease
by means of portions Of the human body
cut off for the purpose. This, you Will
see, has some bearing on the Tien-Tsin af-
fair, the immediate cause of which was the
belief that the missionaries used chiIdren's
eyes as q medicine. Ma-ksin-yi, the Gov
ernor General Of the two Kiang (Kiang-nau
and Kiang-se), nsmorializes the throne to
the effect that young girl of Kiang-ning
fu cut of two joints of ono of her fingers
and put it into the medicine which her
mother was taking for disease which the
physicians had pronounced incurable. The
traditional and orthodox Chinese custom,
for which (as the memorial says) there are
numerous precedents even in recent years,
is 10 cut of a portion of the flesh of the
thigh. This, the young girl, aged only
fifteen, at first actually attempted to do.
but had not either strength or courage
noueh 10 complete the operation. The
Governor General INDUCES in boundless
laudations Of this most commendable act
of filial piety, which had, of course, its
reward in the immediate recovery of the
mother. He begs that the En-
peror will bestew some exemplary
reward on the child, such SIS the erection
of triumphal arch in the neighborhood,
to commemorate the act. By this means,
he says, filial piety all over the world will
receive encouragement. The Emperor, in
his reply, refers the matter to the Li-Pu
for consideration. The family of the girl
are respectable, her father being an expec-
tant Taotai. 1t is to be hoped an abstract
of this interesting memorial will appear as
part of the precis of the Pekin Gazette in
the next Cycle; and surely the editor can
not allow such touching instance OF Chi
nese flial piety and such q convincing
proof Of Chinese civilization to pass with.
ont its need Of praise.

A correspondent sends the following to
the chronological Journal:
If you would have q loving wife be as
gentle in your words after as before mar
riage; treat her quite as tenderly when q
matron as a miss; don't make her maid
of all work and ask her why she looks less
tidy and neat than when s.you first knew
her." don't buy cheap, tough beef, and
scold her because it does not come on the
table "porter house," don't grumble about
squslling babies if you can't keep up
nursery" and remember that "baby" may
take after papa in his disposition; don't
smoke and chew tobacco, thus shatter your
nerves and spoil your temper, and make
your breath a nuisance, and then complain
that your wife declines to kiss you; go home
joyous and cheerful to your wife and tell
her the good news you have heard, and not
silently put on your hat and so out to the
''club" or ''lodge," and let her afterward
learn that you spent the evening at the
opera or at fancy ball with Mrs. Dash.
Love your wife, be patient; remember that
you are not perfect, but try to be; let
whisky, tobacco and vulgar company alone;
spend your evenings with your wife, and
live decent, Christian life, and your wife
will be loving and true-if you did not mar
ry a thoughtless beauty without sense or
worth; If you did, who is to blame if You
suffer the consequences
