Why Hindoo widows Kill Themselves,

Europeans have always been led to
suppose that by the act of suffice Hin
doc wives declared their undying at
tachment to their husbands, but DIR.
Chever, in his recent work on Indian
Medical Jurisprudence, traces the GUS
tom to a very different origin. He
brings forward authorities to show that
the Brahmins themselves invented the
law as means of self-protection against
their wives. Before its introduction
the wives were in the habit of avengin
themselves on their husbands for
neglect and cruelty by mixing, poison
with their food, and atlast things came
to such height that the least matri-
monial quarrel resulted in the husbands
death. An easier remedy for the evil
might have been found in permitting
the wife to eat out of the same dish as
the husband, but this would have in
volved too wide departure from the
customs of society; and it must be ad-
mitted thpt there is peculiar refine
ment of cruelty in the expedient adopt
ed which would commend itself to the
Asiatic mind. OF late years the law of
suffice has been occasionally set at de-
fance, but the widow cannot altogether
escape the consequences of her hus-
bands death. His family degrade her,
and put her to the most mental duties
in the house.

Miss Cassie REM, the New Prima Dom

On Thursday evening Miss Cassie
REM will make her first appearance il
New York in grand concert to be Civ.
en- her at Steinway Hall. The advent
of this new candidate for the honors
of the concert room has been long AID
anxiously anticipated by the musical
world, rumor having credited her with
one of the most extraordinary and re.
markable voices in compass and refine
ment of culture that has been heard
in many years. Miss Renz's voice is
high soprano, of almost unexampled
compass, clear, bell-like, and ringingly
sympathetic in quality throughout the
extent of its register, which reaches the
marvellous altitude of G sharp, on
which she dwells without apparent eff
fort, executing the most difficult caden-
zas in the upper register with marvel
lous distinctness, purity and facility.
Unlike the majority of high sopranos,
Miss REM sings all her pieces in the
original key, as written by the COM
poser, in place of having them trans
posed to suit the limit of the voice,
which but too often destroys tbs spirit
of the composition and its intended
effect. At a private rehearsal, Miss
REM thoroughly delighted her audi
tors by her extraordinary talent She
will be assisted by Miss Adelaide Phil
hpps, Signor Leoni, Signor Ronconi,
and a full grand orchestra, conduct ed
by Carl Bergman.

Se IMPORTANT TO SUFFERERS FROM
NERVOUS ExcITEMENT.-A gentleman residing
in Grammercy Place, New York, (whose name
it would not be proper to mention), was suffer-
ing terribly about three weeks ago from the
effects of dissipation. He could not sleep,
vomlted frequently was tormented by horrible
fancies, and could not keep limb still Opt
ates made him worse. While in this condition
he was visited by friend, who advised him to
try Plantation Bitters as an anodyne, stom-
achic and tonic. "No use," said the sick man.
despondingly, nothing will save me. I'm q
gone case" Pshawl" said his friend, "you're
worth forty dead men yet. I'm going to doc
tor you now" SO saying, he put on his hat,
and going to the nearest druggists, presently
returned with bottle of the Bitters, of which
he administered a dose forthwith 1t had a
soothing, cheering, tranquilizing effect. For
q week thereafter the gentleman continued to
take the tonic regularly, according to the
directions, and at the end of that time was
able to return to business in sound health,
and with clear intellect. This information
is furnished by Alexander I. Minthrom, of
Morrisania, who will confirm it if addressed by
mail.

Bad Cases Of Corruption in Switzer.
land.

In the republic of Switzerland cases
of corruption of high officials have
come to light which seem to indicate a
terrible degree of Generalization.
The books of the highest official of
public revenue at Berne were found in
such disorderly condition, and the
sums sequestrated by him were so con-
siderable, that his arrest was ordered,
and he will have to be tried before the
criminal court. At the same time the
director of the Bank of Commerce at
Berne has abscou6ed for this country,
leaving deficit of $50, 600 francs and
the federal treasurer, Mr.. Eggimann,
was suspended because he was involved
In some illicit operations.
Swiss papers attempt to make the
federal governments, in part at least,
responsible for these defalcations.
They seem to assume that, because the
salaries of aim est every public officer
IN Switzerland are low, and indeed too
low, to allow the incumbents to live
in the same comfort as their associates,
officers have more inducements to steal
than In countries where they receive
better compensation.
This is, at best, an excuse which
would hold good where small sums are
taken from public trust and converted
to an officers private benefit. A men,
Der of the government at Berne receives
1000 francs, or not quite $500 in gold.
If he should be found short the same
amount at the end of the fiscal year,
and If such cases were of common oc-
curence, the smallness of salaries
might come to an explanation. But
when such men steal half millions of
francs, as has happened so often in
Switzerland during the last six or
eight years, the scantiness of salaries
can certainly not be alleged as explain
ing these facts. We are rather inclined
to believe, and men who know the con-
dition of things In Switzerland confirm
our belief, that Safeguarding has
become a terrible disease with officers
who handle large amounts of public
and that the control OF officers,
somewhat better than in the
United States, is not sufficient to pre-
vent mischief. The fair fame of Swift
as an honestly administered
government is fast fading away.-&.

BOrgia Come Again.

The London Medical Press and Cir
cular has the following:
GA very startling communication has
been made to us by gentleman occupy

simply through the medium of a letter
sent by post in the ordinary way, the
reader will suddenly drop down dead,
with all the symptoms of asphyxia.
The position and requirements of our
informant should place his evidence
beyond suspicion nevertheless, before
giving entire credence to such start

confirmatory evidence from any of our

One of our best farmers called upon
us, the other day, and requested us to
call attention in our paper to the fact
that among the tame grasses none was
as profitable as clover. 1t grows so
rank that crop of it, plowed under, is
of more value as fertilizer than good
coating of ordinary manure. Its roots
strike so deep that it fourishes well on
dry land, and yet it grows better and
stronger on moist land as do nearly all
grasses. 1t is of such rank growth.
that, of itself, it overpowers and drives
from the soil the weaker grasses and
weeds. Sorrel, great pest to soil, is
said to be effectually driven out by it.

they would do well to apply small
coating of plaster of Paris early in
the spring This is an excellent
absorbent, and retains escaping

other cheap fertilizer For a summer

keeps green later than any other grass.
Those who would have short winters
can make them comparatively so by

of the thick leaves that protect the
stalks, than to any other grass. Cattle

feed in June or September. Recently
we saw an article In an agricultural pa
per where a farmer in southern Ohio
recommended clover pastures for hogs.
He said that two acres of clover we're
of equal value to one of good corn

all the time. The strong roots kept
the ground loose, and the hogs would
work among them and so find their
food above and below ground. It is as
essential that a hog should have
a place to use its snout, and mire
to wallow in, as that it should
have proper food i'm clover fields or
dinarily all are found. Clover can be
put IN with wheat, buckwheat, oats,
and almost any crop that is scattered

upon it the first year. If one would
only SOW clover for the purpose of
growing hay it is well to SOW both
timothy or herds-grass, and red top
with it. Timothy comes in best about
the second year, and red top the third.
For stock that is only kept for work or
growth, probably either are as good as
clover. The great advantage that the
farmer in cultivating this kind of grass
will find will be in the fact it grows a

young cattle in winter. 1t makes the

Our attention has been called to a
new disease that has broken out quite
extensively among horses in this city
and vicinity. It's indications are first
q small eschar on the heel, about the
size of five-ccnt piece. 1t sits into
the foot much like sit-fast. There is
but little Inflammation, pain or lame
ness. The tissue decays with great
rapidity, so much so that the diseased
surface will be three inches in diameter
and one or two inches deep in forty
eight hours. The boot will slough off
and the entire foot will ultimately drop
away.
Scores of horses and mules in this
city have been affected by this disease.
It's nature and origin were for some time
unknown; but careful microscopic OBJ
servation demonstrates its origin to be
parasites. They seem somewhat allied
to tri;hina, and may be introduced to
the tissue by the manure, as it is al
ways the heels that are affected.
