STREET CAR MAxrNs.-The Boston Transcript
publishes list of maxims for the street car
chiefly intended for ladies. Here is sample
"When the car is full, settle yourself In stand
ing attitude as if it was one of luxury but if a
gentleman offers you his seat accept or decline it
no matter which-wlth an air of gratitude,
whether you feel pleasantly about it, or the re-
verse. Assume virtue if you have it not.
Perhaps the next time you will really be thank
full. The graces grow by cultivation" Another
of the maxims is as follows: IF lady enters
the car-with whom you are not acquainted,
which happens not unfrequently in large towns
avoid staring at her as if for the purpose OF dis
covering whether she may not be native of the
Sandwich Islands, and do not discuss her cloth
ing more than is absolutely necessary with your
companion. In fact, endeavor to make the dis
tinctiOn but slight between your acquaintance
and strangers. There is a certain hospitality of
the car which every passenger should extend to
every other

/ EATING WITHOUT APPETITE. is wrong to eat
without appetite, for it shows that there is no gas
trio juice in the stomach that nature does not
need food; and there not being any fluid to receive
and act upon it, it would remain there only to
putrefy, the very thought of which should be suf
ficient to deter any man from eating without an
appetite for the remainder of his life If "tonc''
is taken to whet the appetite, it is mistaken course;
for its only result is to one TO eat more, when
already an amount has been eaten beyond what the
gastric juice supplied is able to prepare
The object to be attained is larger supply of
gastric juice, not larger supply of food, and what
ever fails to accomplish that essential object fails to
have any efficiency towards the cure of dyspeptic
disease; and as the formation of gastric juice is
directly proportional to the wear and waste OF the
system, which is to be the means of supplying,
and this wear and waste can only take place as the
result of exercise, the point is reached again that
the efficient remedy for dyspepsia is work-outdoor
work-benefcia and successful in direct proportion
as it is agreeable, interesting and profitable.

SOME years since prominent business man of
Northampton, Mass, who began to SOW his wild
oats when boy, and who hasn't got all through
yet attended colored ball in Market street, in that
town. After each breakdown, he noticed that
well near the house-by the way, shallow one
was resorted to by the men to quench their thirst
Unobserved, while the dance was going on, he
slipped out of the house, moved the curb few feet
beyond the we'll and awaited the result. Presently,
ont came one of the dancers, and plump into the
well he went. Blowing and putting he came up to
the top and exclaimed, "By gollyl who moved that
well since pse out here last?

SCHAMYL, popularity known as Crcassian chief
was born in the year 1877, at the Aoul of Himry in
the north of the Caucasian district of Daghestan
From his earliest years he ambitious aud eager
to compete in athletic sports and trials of skill
His future character seems to have been determined
by the instructions he received from teacher named
Dschclal-Eden. From him Schamyl learned the
doctrine of Sufeyism, which, dissatisfied with the
barren letter of the Koran, appeals to human con.
sciousness and seeks TO incucate nober hopes than
gross Mahommedan paradise can fulfil. When
Schamyl first took part in his countrys defense in
1924, the leader of the warlike Lesghians was Kasi
Mollah. From that time until his capture in 1859.
Schamyl became the most troublesome enemy the
Russians had to encounter in their constant irrup
tions into Circassia The exploits attributed to him
would fill a volume. In 1881 in a battle with the
Russians, the Murids under Kasi Mollah were slaiu
almost TO man, and Schamyl, pierced by a ball
lay at his leaders feet but he nevertheless escaped
in time TO present himself at the first meeting of the
dscomfitted tribes after the battle. In 1886 when
his leader fell the victim of a conspiracy Schamyl
was chosen chief Year after year he baffled the
efforts of the Russians, who opposed him in vast
forces, and it not until after the Crimean war
that they were able to break down the power of the
Crcassians. In 1s57-5s, they obtained several i'm
portant victories over the mountaineers, and made
themselves masters of the defle which cut off COM
between Vedeni the residence of Scba-
myl and the pasture grounds of the Tchetchenia.
On the 9TH of September, 1859, schamyl, with his
son, was captured by the Russians, who from that
time treated their prisoner with great respect He
resided in Moscow and had an establishment be-
fitting his former station and character.

PLANT THAT Is REPORTED TO CURE CANCER
The Washington correspondent of the Baltimore
Gazette writes to that paper: "some months ago
Colonel Capron, Commissioner of Agriculture, re-
eeiyed from Ecuador package of roots and bark
of shrub tree called CtmderGHgo, which is found
growing in s5undsnce in Ecuador and it is believed
also in other South American States Clnderdngo
was presented a specific for that heretofore sup
posed to be incurable and deadly disease, cancer
The Commissioner distributed this plant among our
leading medical professors and physicians. One of
these, DR.. B. W. Bliss, has been applying Quadrangle
with extraordinary and unlookedfor success and in
twenty days he has almost entirely cured the mother
of Vice President Cofax and other patients who are
afflicted with cancer. A Boston physician of emin-
enee whose wife is afflicted with cancer, sends for
the C,f'lderaHgo, and orders from medical men in
New York have been received, but it is exhausted
except what is necessary for patients of Dr. Bliss
now using it. DR.. Keene, partner of Dr. Bliss, has
sailed for South America to obtain an invoice of
CanderaHgo Immediately and forward it to this city
md to make himself acquainted with the history

agriculture has sent the root to various portions of

propagation.

| TEST OF ACTUAL DEATH-A positive method
by which real death may be distinguished readily
from that which is apparent only has been for a
long time a desideratnm, and prizes of consider
able value have at various times been offered for
the announcement of some uuerring test to de-
termine between the two. Among others pro-
posed for this purpose is the application of few
drops of bella donna to the eye. If life be pres
cot, in a few moments dIlatatiOn of the pupil
will be observed, very easily noted in comparison
with the other eye which has not been so treated.
This is so independent of the condition of the
eye, that it is even observable in case of CON-
mon amaurosis or paralysis, and is appreciate
when all the ciliary nerves have been cut and it
may even be noted upon an eye that has been re-
moved from the orbit as long as muscular con-
tractiity remains. Whenever, therefore, its APP
plication produces no effect whatever upon the
eye, we may assume that muscular contractility
has ceased, and consequently that life has entire
ly passed from the body. A precaution is how
ever, necessary in cases where datation has al
ready taken place to the full possibility of the
iris which sometimes occurs in case of appar-
ent death, particularly when caused by the use of
beIladonna. A confederation is therefore nee
essary in this instance which is to be effected by
means of the Caabar bean, which, if life be pres
ent, will cause the pupil to contract.

ACADEMY OF SCIENCES. Figaro sent one Of its
staff to the Academy of Sciences Hear him:
The regular semi-monthly meeting of the Cnlifor-
MIA Academy of Sciences was held at the rooms of
the Association, on Monday, DR.. Mopus presiding
Professor Chubtox presented hair from Emperor
Nortons nose and read an essay on nasocriniferous
growths. Adorned clam, from Half Moon Bay, was
presented by Mr.. Winant of the Pacific Oyster Sa-
LOOM and gave rise TO animated discussion. Pro-
fessor Shipping brought under tie notice of the
Academy box of pills which he declared were the
genuine Summerfield, and generously proposed that
the Academy should take them in hand, sell them
for million dollars and retain half for their trouble
DIR. Jowles urged that the Academy should require
proof OF the pills being the original Summerfeld,
before entertaining the proposition.
Professor Shipping asked if Dr. Jowles wished to
see the Bay OF San francisco set on fire, and the
Queen City of the Pacific destroyed If the pills
were taken at ALL they be taken not for the
purpose of being used, but to prepeHt their being
used. If the pills were once tried, there was no
telling what terrible results might follow. The
moisture in the atmosphere would be deeomposed
aud ignite and the fearful spectacle of world in
flames would eusue. These pills were not pills to
be triaed or tempered WITH and he was astonished
at DR.. Jowles' proposition.
The Academy decided that it was not at present
prepared TO negotiate for Professor Shipping pills,
but would consider of the matter.
DIR. Jowles begged that the Professor would keep
the pills dry, and Professor shipping said he didn't
care darn whether they got damp or not; the
Academy had the chance to buy now, or leave it
alone and take the consequences.

William Jackson Lincoln Chute youngest son of

An INDIANS WORD or HoNoR.-A gentleman re-
Gently from Texas, relates an extraordinary occur
sence which took place short time since in the In
dian Nation. A Chocktaw Indian having committed
a willful murder, was arrested tried and sentenced
to be shot. He asked for twenty days in which to
prepare and visit his friends giving his word of hon
or as brave" to return at the appointed time and
was allowed TO 20 forth without guard or bail. At
the expiration of twenty days according TO appoint
ment the hour of execution arrived, and the
Indian true to his word at the very hour and min
ute galloped up in company with three of his sisters
and three brothers to the place where the sentence
was to be carried out, all appearing as cheerful as
though they had come to frolie. The coffin was
then brought on the ground, when some one remark
ed that it was too small, upon which the brothers
of the doomed man advised him to lie down in it
to see if it was the proper size which he cheerfully
did and laughing said " 1t fits all right" TheCrow
in the meanwhile appeared to be in the most cheer
fu spirits, and cracked jokes and laughed AT last
when all was ready the doomed man was told to
sit on the ground when handkerchief was placed
over his eyes by of his sisters The sheriff held
one hand while one of the brothers held the other;
the deputy sheriff then stood up in an old house
about ten steps in front of the condemned with
rifle, but from some cause the rifle went off accident
ally, the bullet passing up through the roof of the
house The Indian believing he was shot, drew
himself up and shuddered, but did not speak or
move from the spot. A black mark was then made
with spittle and powder over the Indians heart by
his brother, while the deputy sheriff reloaded his
rifle and at given signal took aim and fired, pierre
ing the centre of the mark The Indian, with a few
struggles, fell back dead, the brother and sheriff
still holding his hands No one seemed the least
effected but the mother of the doomed man, who
after shedding some tears was told by one of her
sons to "shut up" that all was over

How THE VERSAILLES GOVERNMENT SAVED 49,.
100000 BY STRATAGEx.-A correspondent of the
London Times writing from Paris under date of
April 25th, says:
The Versailles Government secured the funds
in the public offices of Paris by an ingenious
straiagem. These funds, which amounted to
Sl5OOO0OO. in specie, bonds, and bank-bills,
we're placed in a wagon used for conveying bread
and potatoes from the Charity Hospital to the
Aims House at Issy. The evening before at
tempting to pass this vehicle through the Issy
gate similar one was sent by the hospital man
ager by way of trial, and to disarm suspicion.
The guard allowed it to pass, while, at the same
time, the driver secured pass for the next day,
written in the usual unofficial style of the Com
mune: "0pen the gate, even If there are orders
to keep it closed" Next day the wagon, con-
tanning the treasure hidden under sacks of pota-
toes and loaves Of bread arrived at the same
gate, and was stopped, despite the written order.
The guard who gave the pass was away, and his
successor would not respect it. In virtue of his
right of inspection, he proceeded to open the
door of the wagon, and having overturned some
Of the sacks, was about TO remove those which
covered the treasure when lieutenant who COM
handed the post arrived, and called out Il know
all about the cart let it pass" The guard let
90 the sacks, closed the door, and the wagon pas
ed out. In an hour and half later, the 49,
100000 were safe in Versailles The same even
ing the Commune learned all, and proclaimed
that they were robbed. They sent orders to Is
sy to arrest tine manager of the hospital, but he
had followed the millions which he had helped to
secure

HBcLA AND ETSA--It is q long way from Hec-
la, in frozen Iceland, to Etna, in sunny Sicily.
Yet scientific men tell US that there is little
doubt that these two volcanoes are connected
by tunnel or natural subterranean passage of
communication. There are good reasons for this
belief. The great internal earthpulse beats 81
multaneously in each, Etna is never disputed
but Hecla sympathizes, and Hecla never shows
symptoms Of eruption without some thrObbings
in Etna. Ancient and gigantic twins are they,
standing for ages widely separated, but holding
mysterious communication through an unexpain-
ed labyrinth, a fiery artery, through which their
hot blood flows and mingles.

II is reported that Horace Greeley has got into
muss with Texas editor. 1t appears that in
an agricultural essay on the culture of tobacco,
Mr.. Greeley asserted that fine cnt you'd not rip
en- well unless the tin foil was stripped from the
growing buds early in the Spring, and that plug
tobacco ought to be knocked of the trees with
clubs instead Of being picked by hand. This the
Texas Editor said was nonsense, and Mr.. Gree

How TO Remove TIE TASTE OF WooD.-A new

communicate disagreeable taste to anything that
is put into it. To prevent this Inconvenience, scald
the vessel well with boiling water, letting the
water remain in it until cold; then dissolve some
pesriash or soda in luke-warm water, adding lit
tie lime to it; wash the inside Of the vessel well
with this solution. Afterward scald it well with

Senators Hamlin of Maine, Nye of Nevada
and Williams Of Oregon, and Congressman
Bingham Dawes. and Maynard are making
speeches in California in aid of the Republic
can cause.
The Massachusetts papers are expressing
themselves more freely concerning Gen. But
Ter, since mis- Springfield speech, than they
ever have any public man before. The Jour-
nal is little inclined to editorial severity, says
among other things:
A correspondent of an ESSEX county con-
temporary tells story about General Butler,
which is certainly characteristic enough to be
true. 1t appears that lady prominently con-
| nected with the cause of Woman's suffrage
| complained to the General that her reputa-
| ton was suffering on account of the disagree
| able publicity which attended all her move
ments. He at once demonstrated with her
upon the folly OF any such sOlicitude, adding
TO his argument his own experience as fol-
lows: 81 never knew the meaning of pure,
| unadulterated enjoyment, until l stood by and
watched the last shred of my reputation 90
up in balloon. l found this condition of
actual freedom. Try it, and rid yourself at
once of so superfiuous thing Jas character"
We should judge that General Butler, within
week or two, nad made the surprising dis
cOvery that he still had some character left /;
and hence he hurried to Springfield to dis
patch the last balloon cargo. at. .0.
Ex-senator James r. Doollttle has received
the Democratic nomination for Governor. of
Wisconsin on a platform like that promul-
gated by Vallandigham, and which also de-
nounces the present National Administration
in good set terms. The Republican majority
in Wisconsin in 1870 vas GILT, and in 1869
was S,215. In 1868 the majority was 24,447,
and in 1864 it was 1854. If the present can
vass is at all active or excited, Mr.. Dooliltle
will stand very small chance of success.
Hon. Thomas l.. Clingham has mapped 1t
all out for the Democrats. This is his plan !:
AS the world was created in six DAYS, SO
might the National Democracy in six words
enunciate platform. They might declare
Tor constitutional government, equal taxation
economy, amnesty" In the same letter he
suggests the Democracy should resume its old
proper name as the genuine Democratic Re
publican Party of America, and saws that
there is too much involved in the struggle to
permit the party to consult the wishes of par
ticular candidates in the North, or to CRAFTY
the feelings of men in the South, who are at
tempting to keepup war of words. Dur
ing the late unpleasantness the Hon. Thoma
was in the Southern wing of the rebel army
