VALUABLE REPORT ON VACCINATIoN-The
report of DR.. VIM. M. Welch, based upon | .227
cases of smallpox and varioloid treated by him
in the Municipal Hospital" Philadelphia, in
the year 1871, shows some important results
First. it appears that in the case of those who
had never been vaccinated, no less than sixty
five per cent died. Next it appears that of
those who were properly vaccinated in infancy,
and whose arms showed "good marks" only
about nine out of every hundred died. Where
the marks of vaccination were "fair," but not
"gOod," about sixteen cases out of every hum
dred resulted in death. Where the marks
were "poor," showing the vaccination in in
fancy to have been very imperfect, about twen-
ty-two died out of every hundred. These are
very important results, demonstrating the pro-
lection afforded by vaccination, and proving
that the protection is greatest where the vac
clnaton is done most effectively.

A STRANGE SToRY.-About five years ago
a youth. apparently fifteen or sixteen years of
age, called at the publishing house of John E..
Potter IL Co, in Philadelphia, and offered a
manuscript story for publication. Mr. Potter,
the head of the firm, who happened to be in at
the time. smiled at the idea of one so youthful
aspiring to appear in literature as the author
OF book, but finally, at the urgent request of
the boy, consented to keep the manuscript a
few days and look it over When he had done
SO he was convinced that the story, while evinc-
ing lack of polished education on the part of
the boyish author, possessed considerable merit
as an exciting novel, some of the scenes being
described with wonderful power, and. after
consulting with the other members of the House,
decided to publish it. When the youth called
a-tew days atterward he told him of his con-
cusion, and it was agreed that the author
should receive a royalty of ten cents copy on
all sold The story was published in book form,
under the title of white Rocks" since that
time one hundred and seventy thousand copies
have been sold. But what is singular about it
is that the youthful author has never been seen
or heard of since. and there is now due him
the sum-of $1,000 as copyright on his story

To GROW FRUIT WITHOUT STeNEs.-An
agriculturist says that he grows peaches with
out stones, by turning the tops of the trees
down, cutting off the ends, sticking them into
the ground, and fastening them with sticks.
In a year or two these tops will take root;
when well rooted, cut off the branches, con-
Meeting these reversed and rooted branches
with the tree proper, and this reversed peach
tree will produce fine peaches without stones.
The same experiment may be tried with plums,
cherries and currants.

ONE OF THE WAYS the administra-
ton took to conceal its doings from the
eyes OF the people was the abolishment
OF the office Of commissioner of the
public revenues. This Office was worth
lily filled by David S. Wells, a cons,i.
entious republican, who allowed neither
his friendship for the administration
nor his party feelings to influence his
reports to Congress. The consequence
was his office was abolished and further
reports discontinued, In speech in
Cincinnati few days ago, Judge j. b.
Stallo, prominent in the liberal reform
organization of that city, thus referred
to the motives of the administration in
disseminating the office.

A New YORK town is excited by a
case similar to the Alice Bowlsby affair.
A beautiful young lady went away from
home, and the next known of her was
the reception Of her body in coffin by
her agonized parents. A few more such
occurrences will induce the public to
believe that the practice of allowing
young ladies to travel alone and un.
protected, is more honored in the
breach than in the observance.

SCHURZ IN THE SENATE.
HIS GREAT SPEECH.

HIS GREAT SPEECH.
From the Correspondence Chicago Tribune.)
WAsHINGroN, Feb. 22.-Carl Scburz is
the wonder of our time. Born to
speak another language and to roam over
another continent, and to lead the dull
life of n pc itica. European-serving some
petty monarchy as faithful ally, or labor
ing in Intellectual revolt--he has appeared
like an apparition in u Democratic country,
and become spirit of the hour. Our
rancorous partisans like Morton, our
sprigs of conceit like Conkling, our roll
licking Bohemians like Carpenter-all of
splutter, when the fine young "Dutchman'
asks the floor.

man, tearing bits OF paper

life very much rs II college graduate
comes to the time of his finishing speech.

him; you wish that some stronger, broader,
and less sensitive spirit had his task TO

The discovery of the villiany of the
Baltimore preacher, whose crime has
brought sorrow and disgrace ON re-
spectacle family, and blasted for all
time the happiness of a girl still nearly
a child in years, has very naturally ex-
cited adherence, indignation and
alarm in the mind Of society, not only
in the locality in which the outrage was
committed, but in communities far re-
moved from it. The schock of the
event brings with it its unhappy but
inevitable consequence weakening
Of public confidence in the ministerial
character. The result is a sorry one,
and cannot but be deeply felt among
the really good and conscientious of the
clergy. But it should carry with it a
lesson which parents and families are
slow to learn--which is that preachers
are but men, and cannot with safety be
admitted to any more familiarities
