A Chicago Monstrosity.

A mother in this city recently
gave birth to monstrosity weigh
ing about five pounds, having the
body and limbs of a child, without
a neck or head, being what is known
as an acephalous monster. The
limbs are perfectly formed, but the
body is much shorter and broader
than is natural, and has something
of the appearance of very large
frog. The chest, or upper part of
the body is nearly an inch higher
than the shoulders, and is rounded
off into a perfectly-formed human
face, looking directly upwards, with
the eyes unusually large, and SEEM
ing to protrude from their sockets.
The ears are not large, but long and
narrow, resembling the ears of a
dog, and are in part attached to the
shoulders Just over the scapula or
shoulder blade. The back is nearly
covered with thick growth of hair
about half an inch in length, and ex-
tending upwards nearly to the eyes.
This monstrosity did not survive
birth, as an acephalous being could
hardly be expected to support an in
dependent existence. DR.. w. Y.
Sherwood the attending physician,
has preserved this curious anomaly
of nature, and will present it to one
of the medical colleges in this city.

THE melancholy days have come.
The skies are gray, and there are
flakes of snow in the air, harbingers
of approaching winter. Mrs.
O'Leary's southwest wind no longer
has suggestions of 1871 in it, but
blows cold and cutting. Turkeys
grow sad as Thanksgiving looms up
in the distance, and geese tremble
at thoughts of Christmas. The
leaves are falling, and election came
on Tuesday. The two events recall
the pathetic lines of the poet:
Leaves have their time to fall,
And likewise SO have |,
The reason, too, S the same,
1t comes OF getting dry.
| But here's the difference 'twixt leaves and me
| fall more harder and more trequentlee.

A WRITER in the New York Tribune
illustrates the need of reform in the
Post Office Department by reference
to the disproportion in the salaries of
Postmasters. He points out that the
incumbents of the Offices at Aurora
and Bloomington, two Illinois places
of 10000 and 10000 people each, re-
ceive as much salary as the Post
master at Chicago, viz: $1,000. Ga
lena, the home of the President, and
retrograding town of 1000 inhabi-
tants, has a Postmaster whose salary
it $4,000 year, while the Postmaster
at Alton a progressive place of 10000
people. receives only $500. Similar
illustrations are given from other
States, and attention is called to the
tact that there are great many Post
masters who receive more pay than
the Assistant Postmaster Generals and
the Superintendent of Railway Mail
Service, whose duties are much more
responsible and arduous. The writer
estimates that an annual saving of
sS3e,l00, or more than % per cent,
could be made if the Executive Post
masters were appointed on business
principles and by the rule of common
sense.

A "Boss" HORSE THIEF.-Ohicers
from De Witt, Iowa, who recently
captured man by the name of
Crawford, near Boscobel, on a
charge of horse stealing, return q
fearful list of his operations. This
fellow has operated under differant
aliases, and is supposed to be one of
q gang living in Crawford county,
in this State. Iowa officers arrested
him for stealing at De Witt, found
the horse and harness in it's possess
ion, and also a pass-book on his per-
son disclosing that he has stolen no
less than sixty-five horses since June
last. He has made a confession of
his guilt, and it is expected that an
effort viii be made to ascertain
whether he may not be the thief
who has ridden off seven horses
from the neighborhood of Boscobel.

RANGER or WAR IN EUROPE.

4lfl
On the Continent the sky is dark
and lowering, and it is impossible not
70 feel that storm is brewing, yet no
body can tell in which direction to
lock for the first flash. There are no
distinct quarrels ready for fighting
about, but the relations of several inn
nortant States exhibit just the sort of
feverish irritation which may at any
moment precipitate a collision. 1t
NAV be assumed that France and Ger
maay are bound to fight some day !;
hut France, though busy with military
preparations of which every traveller
through the country bring over start
ling accounts, is not yet ready for war
and on the other hand, it is difficult to
see what more it can be possible for
the Germans to get out OF another
conquest. There can be no doubt,
however, that Germany is just now in
rather an explosive condition. The
people are grooming bitterly under the
strain to which they have been sub
iected. and which has still to be con-
tiuued in order to maintain the enor-
mous armament which is deemed nee
essary as check upon reprisals 10y
France. At this moment Germany is
probably the strongest power Ia Eu-
rope: bat the question is how long 1T
can maintain itself in that position.
1t is at the highest point now, but the
cost of this supremacy is fearfully ex-
haust;ng, Every year the country be-
comes less capable OF enduring the
drains upon it in nen and money, and
every year, while Germany is thus at
the best only barely holding its ground,
other powers are growing rapidly In
strength and confidence. Hence the
idea which is supposed to have taken
possession of Bismarck. that the pol
icy of Germany should be to strike
while it is at.the top OF ats strength.
and while other countries are weaker,
and thus to obtain an opportunity ct
lessening its military expenses by par
alyzing its chief opponents while it
etin has pewer to do so, 1t must be
remembered that it is not merely
France by itself that the Germans
have to reckon with in the failure, but
also the Papacy and the Czar--two
very formidable opponents, who would
each be pretty sure to do all in their
power TO help France against the
power which has already deiied the
one, and is suspected of a similar in.
tention in regard to the other, The
European situation, therefore, comes
pretty much to this--that Germany
elespairing of becoming any stronger
ond more than doubling its ability K
maintain its strength at its presen
standard, would be GLAD of an oppor
tunity of trying to cripple its antago-
nists at once in such way as to Sc
cure for itself some amount of cas-
and peace for good while to come
Whether this opportunity will b
found nobody can say; but there cal
at least be little doubt that Germany
is bent on creating an opportunity i
it can, and that it will avail itself O
any that Offers. 1t is no wonder, then
that WITH such state of things on ,ht
Continent, there should be doubt an(
perturbation in the financial world
Almost anything may happen before

scHEEcK's SEA WEED ToSIo.-In the atmos-
phere experienced here during the summer
months. the lethargy produced by the heat
takes away the desire for wholesome food, and
frequent perspirations reduce bodily energy.
particularly those suffering from the effects Of
debilitating diseases. In order to keep ma
tural hea,thful activity Of the system, We
must resort to artificial means. For this pur-
pose Shenck's Sea Weed Tonic is very effec-
tual. A few doses will create an appetite and
give fresh vigor to the enervated body. For
dyspepsia, il is invaluable. Many eminent
physicians have doubted whether dyspepsia
can be permanently cured by the drugs which
are generally employed for that purpose: The
Sea Weed Tonic in its nature is totally differ
ent from such drugs. 1t contains no corrosive
minerals or acids; in fact it assists the regular
operations OF nature, and supplies her def
ciences. The tonic in its nature so much re-
sembles the gastric juice that it is almost iden-
tical with that fluid. The gastric juice is the
natural solvent which. in a healthy condition
of the body, causes the food to be digested;
and when this juice is not excreted IN sutti-
cient quantities, Indigestion, with all its dis,
tressing symptoms, follows. The Sea Weed
Tonic performs the duty Of the gastric juice
when the latter is deficient. Schenck's Sea
Weed Tonic sold by all druggists.

MEMPHIS. TENN: SATURDAY EVENING, JULY is, 1874

Simultaneous was the attack and so un.
prepared was the escort for any imme-
diate rescue that some distance had
been gained by Cochise, followed by his
entire band, before tie captain presence
of mind returned to him, and a charge
was ordered. 1t was too late, however,
to save the poor Scotchman Taken at
the terrible disadvantage he was, he yet
strove desperately and tried to draw his
revolver and make the best fight he could
for his life. Once he nearly succeeded,
but, with the strength of a giant, and a
rapidity that almost defied calculation,
Cochise stabbed his victim seven times
in the neck and breast, and even while
holding him up upon his horse, and that
horse rushing'along over broken ground
at the top of his speed, managed to tear
the reeking scalp from the still breathing
yet dreadfully mutilated interpreter.
Waving this three times in the face Of
his pursuers, and dropping the CORY
corpse like log in the road, he easily
bafled the detachment of soldiers, and
made his escape without the loss OF a
single follower.
For this deed the price of $4,000 was
put upon Cochise's head, and many was
the borderer and the plainsman who en-
tered into his domain to look for him,
and to lie in wait upon the road that he
sometimes travelled. They did not find
him--certainly none ever returned to
claim the blood money, and many there
were who returned not at all.
In report made to- the War Depart
ment some three or four years ago, the
actual statistics were given Of Cochise' s
own killing, and from the figures there
presented the almost incredible total
was figured up of twentY-seyen kmeri-
cans, four Apache Indians, three Ger.
mans, two Englishmen, one Frenchman
and forty nine Mexicans and half-breeds
who had come to their death at the
hands of this monster alone.
