AIR RELLS.

The French have a system of bells,
lately patented, which work by air. A Sc
ries of small leaden tubes proceed from the
kitchen to each room, one to the sitting
room, one to the drawing room, and one to
each bedroom. Attached TO these
tubes. in each room, are a few
feet of India-rubber tubing, suited
in color to the paper of the room.
To the end of the tube a syringe is fixed
air-tight, and this hangs similar to an or
binary bell-rope. In the kitchen is case
containing the bell, which serves for all the
rooms, the distinction being effected by
tickets with the names of their
respective rooms printed on them,
held down by springs. They work in
this manner: The India-rubber syringe
is pressed, and the air by this means is
forced through the tube into a correspond
ing India-Tubber syringe or ball in the case
in the kitchen. This, of course, expands,
and forces up a small rod, which moves
a cog-wheell and rings the bell, and
at the same time sets free the spring
which retains the ticket of the
room in which the bell is rung; this
starts up into a square place in the glass
door. and at once indicates in a simple
manner the room. These ingenious bells
act as effectively as electric bells, which
they resemble eXceC dinglg in sound, with
out their trouble aud expense, and not get
getting out of order, like our wire bells and
CTanks

CONSUMPTION Can BE CURRD.-Schenck's
Pulmonic Syrup, Schenck's Sea Weed Tonic,
Schenckis Mandrake Pills, are the only medi-
chef that will cure Pulmonary Consumption.
Frequently medicines that viii stop cough
will occasion the death of a patient; they lock
up the liver, stop the circulation Of the blood,
hemOrrhage follows, and in fact they clog the
action OF the very organs that caused the cough.
Liver Complaint and Dyspepsia are the causes
Of tw0-thirds Of the cases of Consumption, MANY
persons complain Of dull pain IN the side, CON
stipatiOn, coated tongue, pain in the shoulder
blade, feelings OF drOwsiness and restlessness,
the food lying heavily on the stomach, accom-
panied with acidity and belehing up OF wind.
These symptoms usually originate from dis
Orderered condition of the stomach or torpid
liver.
Persons so affected, ii they take one or two
heavy colds, and IL the cough in these eases be
suddenly checked, will find the stomach and
liver elOgged, remaining torpid and inactive,
and almost before they are aware the lungs are
a mass OF sores, and liberated the result OF
which is death.
Schenekis PulmOnie Syrup Is an expeetOrant
which does not contain opium or anything cal
culated to check a cough suddenly.
Schenck's Sea Weed Tonic dissOlves the food,
mixes with the gastric juices Of the stomach,
aids digestion, and creates ravenOus appetite.
When the bowels are costive, skin sall0w, or
the symptoms otherwise OF a bilious tendency,
Schenck's Mandrake Pills are required.
These medicines are prepared only by
j. II. SCHENCK & SON,
y. r. corner Sixth and Arch sts., Phila-,
And are for sale by all druggists and dealers.

CAPTAIN JACK.
The Hero of the Lava Beds Finds an
ApOIOgisf I'm Boston.

BOSTON, Oct. 1S.-A meeting was held
tonight in the Hollis-street Church, to con-
slider the Indian policy. Father Gleason
presided, and, in the course of his remarks,
eulOgized Capt. Jack, and defended his
shooting of Maj. Gen. Candy and Commits
sioner Thomas.
Col. Meacham who was one of the
Peace Commissioners to the MOdOcs1 arose
and stated that he took no part in such an
assertion, as he believed the assassination
of CANDY and Thomas a dastardly outrage
Father Gleason then said he had read in
Oregon papers. that Meacham was a pOli;-
ical adventurer, and had he offered TO
Capt. Jack the terms the President de
sired, Candy and Thomas would not have
been shot.
Col. Meacham made no reply to this, but
said Gleason had advertised him to speal,
without his authority. Alter further
wrangling. Col. Meacham lefl the church.

FINANCIAL.

Business continues very quiet and dull,
with ngthing doing IN stUcks and bonds.
Money is in demand, but as a general
thing the banks decline discOunting, and
they make no loans, except where they can
not well avoid il. Money on the street is
worth one per cent. per month, while the
hank rate is nOminally ten per cent. per
annum.
Gold is unchanged, closing in New York
at lilo. Fur the silall lots offered hers
dealers pay 1881 and hold at 10. Silver is
taken at l02 for halves and quarters.
Government securities are very firm and
are higher. The 5-20S of 1867 are worth
in New York 117i. They would bring
about III IN this market.
Tennessee bonds are slightly better, be-
ing quoted in New York al 81 and at 5l6
55. There are no transactions in this mar
ket.
Our local stocks and bonds are very dull
with rates nominal and unchanged.

CROPS IN LAUDERDALB COUNTY.

NoNingbOn hecOrug oct IL.
On last Friday we paid wish to Fulton,
Iauderdalc county, situated about two
miles below Fort PILLOW, Of historic renown,
on the east bank Of Che Mississippi. Al
though the greater portion Of the country
has suffered terribly from the disastrous
drought of last summer, yet that portion
situated on the river, near FultUns seems
to have been favored in a remarkable de-
gee. 4 gentleman named Bolt, informed
us that be has gathered near bale to the
acre from field of cotton planted the 9th
of May, on land that had been overlooked
from three to six feet deep, and that the
prospect for a second picking is very flatter-
ing. Corn on the alluvial lands will yield
from forty to sixty bushels to the acre. We
had heard of an enormous yield of hay pre-
viOus to our visit, but were inclined to be
somewhat sceptical about it, One acre of
German Millet was carefully measured and
the hay accurately weighed after days ex-
pOSBro 10 the sun, and not drop of rain
upon il after cutting, with the incredible
result of the thirteen tons three hundred
and twenty-five pounds. This is difficult
of belief, but il will be vouched for by gen.
tleman of undOubted veracity, who live in
Fulton, and who measured the ground and
weighed the hay.

ture show that the wheat crop is equal to
or greater than last years in all the States,
except Maryland, Virginia, Texas, Ken
lucky, Wisconsin, Minnesota, Iowa anti
Kansas. In Connecticut, Delaware, South
Carolina and Illinois it is about equal 10
last years crop. The other States have in
creased their yield.
The New England States have almost
reached the splendid crop Of the census
wear. approximating to a million bushels.
Maine has increased her yield thirty-three
per cent. The quality Of the crop in these
States is considerably improved.
The Middle States have been consider
ably enlarged, and improved their yield,
New York reporting an increase of sixteen
per cent.
Of the South Atlantic States Maryland
falls one per cent. and Virginia six per cent.
below last year; but their deficiency is more
than made up by the other States, Georgia
showing an increase of twenty-one per
cent. The quality also is improved.
OF the Gulf States Alabama reports an
increase of twenty-thTee and Mississippi
INO Etll.s 1GAdS Il hFtlGtloC VI cCNNAA
per cent. In quality Alabama improves
twenty-nine per cent, and Mississippi de-
clines nine per cent, and Texas SIX per
cent.
All the four Southern inland States show
an improvement in quality from - per
cent. in Arkansas to
Seventeen Per Cent. i'm Tennessee.
In quantity, Arkansas presents an in
crease of - per cent; Tennessee % per
cent. and West Virginia % per cent; Ken
lucky declines , per cent. The crops Of
these States are q third greater than that of
the census year.
North of the Ohio, Illinois equals that of
last wears crop. while Wisconsin, OH &C
count of grasshOppers, falls 30 per cent.
short. which reduces the aggregate yield OF
this section, below last yea. Ohio in
creases her yield 16 per cent, Michigan %
per cent, and Indiana per cent. All show
improved quality except Wisconsin, which
| declines IS per cent.
The aggregate Weld of the States west of
the Mississippi is also short Of last years.
Missouri increased 29 per cent, and Nebras-
ka per cent. but Minnesota declines Ii
per cent, Iowa , per cent. and Kansas }
per cent. The grasshoppers have been de-
Structive TO the spring wheat in these
States. The quality is below last years in
| all EXCEPT Minnesota, which improves -
per cent.
On the Pacific coast the crop is greatly
increased and is fully 30 per cent. above
| the census year. California has increased
her yield 10 per cent, and Oregon p pei
cent. Oregon equals the quality of last
years crop. California improves hers by
pei cent. The total yield will be nearly, i
not quite, equal to the census year.

LIVINGSTON, Tenn, Oct II, 1S74.-
The convention to nominate a candidate
for Representative of the counties of Oser-
ton, Morgan and Fentess, was held on the
10th inst. After a heated and exciting
contest between some half a dozen as
pirsnts, Willis II. Paris received the nomi-
nation on the forty-eighth ballot. Zach of
the aspirants pledged his hearty support TO
the nominee.
The nominee is a plain, honest farmer,
of good practical sense, of sterling integrity
and purity of character, man that cannot
be bought. He has been an efficient JUS
tice Of the peace of this county for many
years. There can be no question as to his
election.
While at Jamestown, attending the coh-
vention, went 10 see Geo. kingiOn, the

confident he was the stronger. His voice

ONLY YEAR AGO,

Only year ago!
So short, and vet so long!
Its memory soft as the summer wind,
or wave of the angels song.
Only a year ago!
And yet what changes have been!
How many stars have been lost TO view.
And, OH how many seen?
A head of golden hair
An eve supremacy blue
A good, and nsble, and brave heart,
And Christianlike and true;
That was year sgO'
To-day, ashes AMI dust,
1t tells how much the heart will bear
How much Il can and must.
And thus we might be hanging
Sweet pictures in memOry'S hall;
And let a food of sunbeams
Over our idols fall
just al, we did year 40!
Where are they all to-day?
Ask Of the wave, as il thunders by,
What it did with yesterdays spray.
