We are surprised to read in an ex-
change that the corn of Mr.. Redman
is seven feet high" We pity Redman
We cannot imagine how he gets his boots
on over such corn as that, nor can we
conceive how he contrives to walk even
when he is barefooted. 1t is hardly
likely, we should think that Redman him
self is more than six feet high, and If
that is the case that solitary corn Of his
must tower above his head It might be
a good thing to tie an umbrella to, or he
might carry a hower-pot on his foot and
have honeysuckle climbing up the corn
and poisoning under his nose. Ofcourse
Redman cannot enjoy himself in wet
weather. Those Of us who have ordi-
nary corns know how intense is the suf-
feeling they cause upon damp days. Now,
imagine seven feet of corn in one long
string, and an idea may be obtained Of
Redman's agony when the air is moist
He would be very valuable man in the
signal service bureau. A man with q
seven-foot corn, in Washington, ought to
detect a storm that is raging in Kansas
We hope Redman will never have a
bunion. A man who grows such mon
ster corns would certainly develop a
bunion the size Of -four barrel.

A Tnnrier bride.

Weddings in Tangier, says Appleton 8
Journal, are very frequent, and make the
night hideous with their noise. All except
the very poorest are accompanied with
eun.fring and music. When these lux
uries are beyond the means Of the fam
lies the women shrek ten times more
to make up for the deficiency. This is
cheap noise, and noise appears to
be the great desideratum at these
celebrations. No religious ceremony
takes place, as far as | could
ascertain, in connection with mar
riages in Morocco, beyond the BRIDE
groom saying a certain number of pray
ers in one of the mosques, previously.
The fatteuing of the bride is the only
preparation on her part for entrance
into the "holy state" For this purpose,
from the time of her betrothal, she is
confined to one room, not permitted 10
take any exercise, and compelled TO
swallow large Quantities of kesksoo
every day This system, pursued stead
tasty for few weeks, brings her into a
condition of what is considered in Mo-
rocco becoming obesity. | have heard Of
an INTENDED UTlue 81 idb tneb eho was
unable to stoop to pick up her pocket
handkerchief when she dropped it, and
who could with difficulty move across
the room without assistance. Another
curious custom observed on these occa-
sions is, that the bride is not permitted
to leave her bed for eight days after
her marriage; nor, though she is visited
all this time by all her married fe-
male relations and friends, may she
open her eyes or speak. On the eighth
day she gets out of her bed for the first
time; her sash is put on with this ex-
ception she has always appeared in full
dress); she opens her eyes, speaks, and
walks round her house. The occasion
is made a great gala Of, and the house is
thrown open to every one-of course Of
the female sex-who wishes to come in

Interesting 20 DistiIIers.

There are large number of grain dis
tilleries in Tennessee and Kentucky, the
proprietors OF which wish to make
brandy from fruit during the warm
months, when they are unable to distill
whisky from grain. Heretofore they
have not been allowed to do this, but the
Commissioner o. Internal revenue has
jest made decision by which he allows
this kind Of work to be done. The deci-
sion is as follows:
In case grain distillers wish to
change from grain to fruit they can do
so, and the spirits in their warehouses
may remain until the tax is due under
the warehousing bond. They will not
be allowed to put any brandy made from
fruit into the warehouse with such spir-
its, but will be required to pay the tax
in the manner prescribed for all distil-
lers Of brandy from peaches, apples, etc.
The distilleries must be again surveyed
for fruit in accordance with law. II
they have discontinued operations as
grain distillers, they must give bond as
fruit distillers, and also re-register their
stills

In Tennessee the pardoning and COM
muting power of the Governor has been
used so freely that society has suffered
from it. In Iowa the following remedy
has been adopted: :" A new code goes
into effect in Iowa the lsL Of September,
by which the pardoning power is taken
from the Governor. This is an infringe
ment on the right which nearly every
Governor in the country possesses.
Hereafter, if the Governor has a case
worthy Of clemency, he must first pub
lish legal notice OF the same for four
weeks preceding the meeting of the Leg
isIature, and when that body assemblies
he must submit his reasons, and that
body decides whether the pardon shall
be granted.
