THE SKEPTIcAL CoNvNcED.-Everya adj
vance in medicine, every new remedy has
encountered an opposition, which Is the
test of truth. Galen and Jenner only
were believed when they had proved their
discoveries against opposition. But men
are observing, and benefits always make
believers. No incredulity can stand the
silent argument of good results. When
DR.. Walker proclaimed that he had pro-
duced from the medicinal herbs of Califor
mia an Elixir that would regenerate the
sinking system and cure diseases not or
ganic, the incredulOus shook their heads.
Yet his VINEGAR BTTTERs is now the Stand
ard Restorative of the Western World.
The truth could not be resisted. Under
the operation of the new remedy, Dyspep-
ties regained their health, appetite and
strength, the Bilious and Constipated were
relieved of every distressing symptom
the Consumptive and Rheumatic rapidly
recovered; Intermittent and Remittent
Fevers were broken up; the faint of Scrof-
ula was eradicated! Who could gainsay
facts like these? Not even the Faculty.
Skepticism was routed. All doubts as to
the clYims of the Bitters to the first place
in the first rank of modern medicines were
| silenced, and this wonderful preparation
is to-day the most popular Tonic, Altera-
tive, and Blood Depurent ever advertised
in America. In common with other jour
naists, we are free to add our testimony
TO this remedy. 1t is domestic medicine,
and no household should be without it.

Typhoid Fever in Pigs.

The London CEDg.) Agricultural Ga
zette says: Typhoid fever of pigs is al
most the only zymotic disease of the
lower animals which has a distinct re-
preventative among the diseases of the
human subject. In many cases the term
typhoid is used to indicate any form of
disease in which fever of low kind is
present but in typhoid fever of the
pigs the characteristic affection of the
glands of the intestines is always well
developed, as it is In man. From q few
weeks to six months old all kinds of
pigs are liable to typhoid fever. After
the age of six months they appear to
possess a remarkable power of resisting
the disease some older animals are of
course attacked, but the rule is that the
extreme susceptibility comes after the
pig has reached the age of six or eight
months; were it not so, the losses from
the disc se would be more serious than
they are.
Excepting age, there appear to be no
modifying circumstances which exercise
any particular influence. Temperature
has little or nothing to do with the pro-
gress of the affection. In summer and
winter the disease is equally rife, and
equally fatal and observation leads to
the conclusion that the utmost care in
the treatment of the animals does not
preserve them from the ravages of the
malady, nor does the susceptibility seem
to be increased in animals which are
systematically neglected. The one es-
sential is the typhoid germ; when that
is planted in the organism the results
follow in regular order, undisturbed by
the external conditions of the animals
existence,

A Little Game of Vasquez's Frustrated.

The San Francisco Chronicle saws.
in speaking of the recent capture Of
Vasquez "Vasquez stated to Major
Mitchell that if he had $40, 900 and the
kind and quantity of arms he required
he could revolutioIize the entire south
ern portion of that state. It is believ-
ed that this has been the objective point
of his scheme A boldly conceived
plot of his was an attempt to plumber
the paymaster's car on the Southern
Pacific railway. He heard that on a
certain day the pay car would traverse
the road attached to the regular train.
Accordingly he gathered about him the
bravest of his band and prepared to at
tack and despoil it. The banditli Sc
lected a spot between San Jose and Gil
roy, known as THE Divide The plan
included the cutting and removal of a
section of the rail. This was the first
exercise on the programme. The char
acteristic laziness of the Californians
delayed their preparations, and, as the
train was ten minutes ahead of time,
the affair was an utter failure. As the
train approached, the members of the
band were busily engaged In damaging
the track. 1t came laundering down
and past them as they sprang back, and
whisked out of their reach ere any harm
could be accomplished. The officials
on the train noticed the bandits and di-
vined the true reason of their presence.
On the evening of the same day the
tragedy at Tres Pinos occurred.

Bailey,s Nautical Experience.

The Danbury News man details the
incidents of his temporary sojourn on the
briny. He shipped the first sea on the
fourth day out. An elderly gentleman
with eyeglasses had his starboard end
to the intruder at the time, busiIy en-
gagged peering at the horizon from be-
meath one of the life-boats. It struck
him on the beam, and fllsd his coat
tail pockets with salt water "Helen
Blazes," said he, and he stepped down
stairs to see her. The fearful and con-
tinuous rolling of the vessel was the
cause of painful and ludicrous accidents.
of course. The intellectual man with
a long brown OveTcoat that touched his
heels, and sharp, inquiring eye that
seemed to reach into everything, was
knocked off his feet by the wave, and,
besides being drenched TO the skin, was
driven out of sight under a ife-boat.
Bailey enjoyed that trio better than he
did. One of the Stewards bald-head-

Report of the Crop in Tennessee, Ala

The committee on information and
statistics of the Memphis Cotton Ex-
change report the receipt of I39 letters,
representing "a counties in Tennessee,
Arkansas, Mississippi, Alabama, and
two In Missouri, which aggregate as fol-
lows: Deficiency in acreage of cotton
planted, as compared with 1873, 8 Ito

goth inst, 7-10 of the seasons plant
ing. The labor force has increased
numerically 7-10 the past year, and dur
ing the past two years L ITO. In COM
parison with the past two years the
labor shows an improvement in indus
try per cent, but nothing in thrift
ness. There is an increase, numerical
ly, IN the working stock of but 6 ]. 10
per cent. The condition of work stock,
as reported, is 3 Ito poor and lilo
fair. The planting operations are re-
ported as averaging Is! days later than
for the past two years. OF the cotton
crop planted there is reported as upon
tine Goth inst, ffty-fve per cent, of
which it is reported one-half is bad,
one-fOurth fair and one-fourth good con-
ditioned.
The excessive dry weather since plant
ing has prevented a good stand from
coming up, and generally it has been
too dry to cultivate in the upIands.
The condition of the corn crop is bad,
and wheat and oats have suffered from
the drouth. There is a growing dispo-
sitiOn to increase crops of cereals, in
Guiding millet, rye and hay. Since the
Goth there has been but very light and
partial showers. General complaint ex-
lists of want of rain.

A London Trick of the Trade.

The following curious incident con-
nected with the funeral at Westminster,
of DIR. Livingstone, is related by Lon
don correspondent
Zone man was making money in st.
Margaret's chureh-yard in q more ex-
ceptionable way. He was selling a green
pamphlet, which bore on it in large let
tiers, Wonderful Adventures. Living
stone. His pretty black wives most
wonderful traveller There was also
on the pamphlet coarse woOdcut, re-
presenting a man with his hair standing
straight up on his head, as might well
be the case, since lion looks at him
with grateful complacency, a snake seeks
his intimacy by lining about his knees,
and a monkey pulling off his hat, or
hair, it is difficult to say which. Aston
ished that any one should have the au-
dacity to sell at the door of the abbey
on such an occasion a pamphlet with
such an inscription-the same being also
paraded on placard-I bought a copy
Cprice one penny to find what this hard-
pressed caterer for the million could
have to say about Livingstone. 1t turn
ed out to be a humbug. Between the
Wonderful Adventures and Living
stone, in large capitals, were painted
In microscopic script the words 'of a
celebrated African traveller like DIR.
Inside there are ten pages of rubbish
about some man (name not given) who
resolved to go on foot and by land, tax
ing near cut, to rescue Sir John Frank
lin in the Arctic seas, this adventurer
took Africa in his course thither. By
that route he reached the mountains
of floating ice, where he found dog
who conducted him to a place where
lay a skeleton, which he supposed to
be that of Franklin. It certainly was
brave trick to sell this stuff with its
enticing cover, but this is a land of
! free trade"
