Another Triumph for the Wilson Sew
 ing Machine Co.

At the SEVENTH GRAND STATE FAIR of the Mechanics and Agricultural Fair Association of Louisiana, held April 23d 1878, at New Orleans, the world-renowned celebrated Wilson Shuttle Sewing Machines were awarded GOLD MEDAL for the best Sewing Machines, and fue separate premiums for the best work done on Sewing Machines. thus making Forty-one Pre- nei,t7ns, Nine Medals aAd Three Diplomas that have been awarded to the Wilson Machines within 8 year. It is notorious fact that. with out single exception, the Wilson Sewing Machine Go. has sent it's machines to every State Fair and Exposition in this country and Europe, where awards were offered to the best Sewing Machines, in order to show the great people of the world that the "Wilson' is not only better than all others, but that it has the ability, capital and pluck to defeat and humili- ate the combined force of nineteen competitors. all of whom have fought the Wilson Machine

Put Yourself in His Place.

Reader, put yourself in the place of dyspeptic and bilious patient under the old fashioned, regu

Anopathie doses of blue pill, pur- gatives that go through him with the impetuous rush of avalanche, opium when he can't sleep, and little beef tea to keep him alive under the assaults of the medicine men upon his stomach, his intestines liver and his brain, all these has to endure. Is it any wonder that he becomes dreadfully weak emaciated and dejectedP Reader, if you have any |" gumption" you would, under any circumstanc and at all hazards, decline to put yourseH-otherwise than suppositiously-in that mars place.

A Pet Chicken.

The Twenty-third Regiment of ar tillery in the French army has @ white Cochin China rooster upon which 8 great value is placed on account of his meritorious services in the field of bat tie. This cock passed through the whole of the campaign of the Rhine, and was carried to Augsburg as 8 prisoner of war. At Metz during the siege the soldiers, although obliged to eat their horses, held the life of this truly Gallic cock as sacred. At the battle of Gravelotte he was perched on the shoulders of his master, who was in the Fourth Battery, and was so used to the cannon's roar that he did not pay the slightest attention to it. After his master was killed another artillerist adopted him, and he still remains in the military service.

Unaired Chambers.

The following sensible advice is given us by a correspondent in the Country Gentleman ::
 1T pass some houses in every town whose windows might as well be sealed in with the walls for any purpose they have but to let in the light. They are never opened, summer or winter. In winter it is too cold in the summer the flies stray in, or, if they are netted, the dust sits through the nets. Now, I can tell person who inhabits such cham bers when I pass him in the street there is such smell about his clothing. I always wish for sniff of cologne, o1 hartshorn, or burnt feathers, or some thing of the sort, to take the taste out. A house that is never aired has every nook and corner filled with stale odors of cooked meats, boiled vegetables, es. pecially cabbage and onions, which, as the weeks go by, literally reek in theil hiding places.
 "Who has not wished sometimes tc hang a new servants clothing out o1 doors some frosty night until it should be thoroughly aired? But I have seer the fine ladies come sweeping into church with their velvets and silks, whe1 sad velvets and silks gave unmistakablt evidence of having been housed in jus such shut-up chambers. Oh, what { tale that odor of pork and cabbage tells about the lady's style of housekeeping The very garments of the children tel the same story of uncleanliness. It il bad to have unwashed clothes, bu there may be an excuse for it. But wha excuse can there be for unaired ones when ar is so cheap and free? Ther' is death in such unaired chambers Better a swarm of flies or cloud O dust, better frost and snow in room than these intolerable smells. Dea girls, the first thing in the morning when you are ready to go down stairs throw open your windows, take apar the clothing of your beds, and let th air blow through it as hard as it will There is health and wealth in such policy. It helps to keep away the doc tors with long bills. It helps to mak your eyes sparkle and to make you cheeks glow, and to make others lov your presence Girls who live in thos close, shut-up rooms, can only be toler ated at the best in any circle"

Curious Story About a Hawk.

A curious incident occurred few days since short distance from Balti- more, local paper says: One of our well-known merchants had gone out on a visit to friend, at whose house there was bright little boy, and one day, to please the child, he manufactured a very large kite, and as the wind was strong enough, the kite was raised at once. After 1t had gone up nearly half a mile, large crowd of country people collected to admire it, as such mag nifcent toy had never been seen in that section before. While. the spectators were admiring it, very large hawk was seen to fly slowly out of a neighbor- ing grove and go directly toward the kite. The hawk approached within a few feet of the strange looking object, and then circled about under it for per haps five minutes, when he flew just above it and again circled around several times. Suddenly he lowered directly over the kite, and after looking at it in tently for short time, darted down ward, and striking the paper, passed directly through the kite, coming out on the other side. After this strange experience, which no doubt puzzled the hawk vastly, he few-off short distance for reflection, but still keeping the kite in view. Not being disposed to give it up so, he quickly returned to the charge, and this time fastened on the long string of rags that were used as a tail to the kite, which he tore and scattered in the air in savage manner. Finding, how ever, no resistance on the part of the kite, he became disgusted or scared, and flew away toward the woods whence he came. The gentleman says that whenever the hawk made an attack he would retreat little, as if he expected the strange. bird was going to return the assault

Debts of Nations.

It is 8 moderate estimate in Europe that the world is in debt nationally to the extent of 20, 925, ,OOO,0 900 of our dol lars. The average rate of interest is four and a half per cent, and hence these nations pay nearly $942, ,O0O. As a general rule, the nation which owes most money is the best treated. Great Britain owes, in pounds sterling, 790,- 100000; France 748,OO0,OOO United States 44O,OOO,OOO; Italy 36O,OOO, 900 <; Russia 355, ,OOo, 900 Austria BOG, GOO, 900; Spain 261, 100000 and Turkey 124, 900, GOO. The greatest borrower of all these viz Great Britain, is certainly the best trusted, and only has to pay at the rate of three or four per cent. interest, while the two of the borrowers who bor- row least are the least to be depended upon, and have to pay their eight or nine per cent.

The Execution of Nixon.
He Expiates his Crime on the Gallo>v

He Expiates his Crime on the Gallovvs.
 Michael Nixon, who was executed in the New York Tombs for murder, was bill-poster, and was driving wagon down the Bowery into Chatham-square. On reaching the square his progress was impeded by the man he murdered, an inoffensive truckman named Charles $. Phyfer, residing in WillfAmsburgh. Phyfer was riding a gray horse which had @ whiffletree fastened across it's names. Nixon ordered Phyfer to clear the way, and the latter refused to quit the line in which he had alright. Nixon stood up in his wagon, and drawing a revolver, deliberately aimed and fired at Phyfer, who, shot through the head, fell from his horse, dead. Nixonrapidly drove away, but was arrested an hour afterwards in his residence. He was tried before Judge Brady, in the Court of Oyer and Terminer, and convicted. His counsel used every effort in his behalf, but without avail. Nixon has not been unprepared for the final result of these legal efforts to defeat the law. His spiritual adviser, Father Duranquet, who for many years has visited con- demned criminals in the City Prison, spared no effort to reconcile him to his ultimate fate, and Nixon was perfectly resigned, as far as a man can be re- signed, to yield up his life.
 On the night before the execution Nixon's family visited him in prison. The sheriffs and keepers instinctively withdrew, and the condemned man and his wife sat together by the stove in the main corridor of the prison. Nixon pressed his wife's right hand for Q min ute or two but did not say anything. Then Mrs Nixon began crying bitterly, and Nixon, as if to soothe away her grief, smoothed away her hair, which had fallen over her face. "Oh, Mike, it is so hard to leave you," said the wife. "It can't be helped, said Nixon, and then they kissed each other, and talked in low tone about their family. Then Mrs. Nixon said: "I cannot stay any longer, Mike; good-by." And Nixon, standing up, kissed his wife for the last time, and she passed out of the prison into the yard in which the gal lows had been erected. Nixon was exe- cuted in the morning, in the presence of the officers and few visitors, and died with very little struggle.

According to the ceremony he had to repeat the following words with his face towards the sun "Thou sun-god, if am actually guilty of the crime, pun ish me if not, let me escape unscathed from the ordeal" The native paper, which is responsible for the above, states that the person suffered no in- jury.
