A CURIOUS story comes from a Ken
lucky paper of three members of a GER
tain family who, few days ago, ''be-
came almost simultaneously deliriOus
and behaved very strangely, imagining
themselves other persons. The most
singular thing about the affair is that
they did not know each other. They
remained in this condition all day
What strikes us as the most singular
thing about the affair is that Ken
lucky editor should so far forget his
Bourbon antecedents as not to suspect
the cause of the malady.

composed almost exclusively of negroes,
that Ku-KluX had attackedthem andraiSed
posse Of about thirty negroes to so in
pursuit of them. This morning Eagle and
his posse proceeded in search Of the two
hog thieves, when they were suddenly con-
fronted by an armed body Of negroes and

The cafes at Smyrna seems to be
altogether in rather an uncomforta-
BILE condition. It was only the other
day that the Inflated Kivoto sudden
ly disappeared beneath the sea, and
now, according to the Levant Herald
the adjoining cafe, the Aphroessa
has followed the example of the XII
voto. On the goth ult., the Aphroes-
sa took it's departure during north
erly gale. For about five minutes
it was observed floating about like
a raft, and then sunk under water at
about 100 yards from it's original site.
The destruction Of the Aphroessa
was fortunately unattended by any
loss of life, the cafe having been
closed by order of the police after
the catastrophe which befell the HI.
vote.

Plant on the true fondation, then.
The rains will descend of course, the
floods will come, the winds will blow
and the tempest will rage: but what
you have built will stand. Fearing
and not doing. talking and believing
but emitting the life and the deed,
is but''shanty'' building. The rains
will fall, and the floods come, and
the winds will roar, and the tempest
will have license; but the super
structure, because it is on sand, will
go down as a thing Of paper. It is
what the man is, and what truth
makes him, that constitutes the sure
ness and trust. He who takes the
Sermon on the Mount, it's pure
Mortality, it's pure Benefcence, con-
Meeting it both ways, God-ward and
man-ward, its pure, divine worship,
It's immortal faith, its inevitable
Retribution, and practices these
simple, generic inspirations in this
life, is the SAVED MAN-anything to
the contrary notwithstanding.

Generally speaking, it may be said
that to strike child on the head
with either the hand or book or a
rattan, is not proper mode Of pun
ishment. The least physiological
knowledge ought to convince any
teacher that a violent blow on the
head ofa tender child may produce
disturbance Of the brain leading to
the most serious results. A smart
box on the ear is liable, by the CON
cussion Of the air upon the tympan-
UNI, to break the thin, membrane
which is wonderfully sensitive to the
most delicate vibrations, and perma;
nently injpre the hearing. There
are other organs that may be injured
by violence to the head. We should
say that any teacher who makes it a
practice to box or pull the ears Of
scholars, or cuff their heads with the
hand or with q book, or who raps
the skull anywhere with a ruler OF
rod, should be discharged for want
ofjudgment and discretion, no mat
ter what other be his qualifications
