A Sworn Brother.

A popular clergyman of Buffalo re-
turned from an extended temperance
lecturing journey a few days since, and
just as he alighted from the cars and
was receiving the congratulations of q
crowd of delighted parishioners, who
had assembled to greet him, am ine-
briated individual seized him by the
hand and exclaimed: Well, good-by,
old pard, I am going further, and shall
keep up the same style Of drinking for
a while yet, but you are pretty well So
bered up and youhad betterkeepso. Yes,
yes, you know how to have rum time
just as good as any pard ever had, and
you has my respect. Day day, Old
Buster r Before the astonished clergy
man could gather his wandering wits
the agreeable-mannered gentleman had
politely bowed and was off, leaving a
terrible scandal for the delectation of
Buffalo, and prospective candidate
for the lunatic asylum.

Southern Corn Meal.

To any one who has ever enjoyed the
pleasure of eating pone or hoecake of
genuine fresh cora meal made of South
ern white corn, the taste Of the dry and
heavy substitute for it found on our
hotel and restaurant tables of this city
Affords a sad and unsatisfactory con-
trast, and we greatly wonder that some
OF our enterprising grocers IN this and
other Northern cities do not arrange
with good house in Charleston, or
Savannah, or further inland along the
line of the railroads to ship them a reg
ular supply. We know that many of
our retail grocers have up the sign of
i"Southern corn-meal," but they do not
get the genuine article. We do not
mean meal ground here from Southern
corn, nor meal ground in the South and
then Kindred and shipped here. We
know that kind of meal can be got.
What we refer to is meal ground from
the fresh corn, after fully matured and
hardened, by one of the regular old and
old fashioned, slow-going, over-shot,
water wheel mills, found on the creeks
all over the South. All, such batter
cakes, and egg-bread, and thin wafer
like hoecakes as that kind of meal
makes is as much superior to the stale
and improbable stuff we get here, as
sweet and succulent timothy grass is to
dry shucks or fodder. They say such
fresh meal will not bear transportation,
that it will become sour and moldy.
That is true, if it was intended to keep
it long on land, but we venture the pre-
diction that the house that receives
such simon-pure corn-meal, would not
have chance to see whether it would
become sour on it's hands. -Am1ericoaa

The First Students OF Harvard,

Our great colleges all had small be-
ginnings, and some of them had pretty
hard beginnings, as the following
ancient "Reminiscences of our first uni
versity shows
At first, it was truly school only,
and was taught by one Nathaniel Eaton,
a scholar of most dlsreputable memory,
who was discharged by the General
Court for cruel and barbarous beat
ing of Mr.. Nathaniel Briscoe, and for
other neglecting and misusing OF his
scholars" a sentence of the most
righteous nature.
The brutal man had a rule that " he
would not give over correcting until he
had subdued the party to his will, " and
in this exercise he used, on one occa-
sion at least, as Gov. Winthrop tells us,
a cudgel which was a walnut-tree
plant, big enough tohavekilled horse,
and yard in length"
But this was not all, for, although
the pupils paid him well for their
"diet, it was ordinarily nothing but
porridge and pudding, "and that very
homely )" and his wife denied them
butter and cheese and beer "betwixt
meals"
She also forced the young men to
make their own beds at times.
Altogether the poor fellows had a
hard time dwelling with Master and
Mistress Eaton.

The ApOthecary's Oath.

The Medical and Surgical Reporter
has unearthed singular bit of medi-
eval literature cursing architecture.
Says that journal: Who is the guar
dian saint of the apothecaries we do not
know, but somebody has disinterred an
ancient oath which formerly had to be
taken by every French pharmaceutist.
It runs thus
''I take to witness, before all, God,
the Creator of the universe, in three
persons, that during the whole of my
life will observe that which follows !:
81 will live and die in the Christian
faith. [ will honor my parents. I will
honor the physicians and masters under
whom I have studied. will never say
anything that shall be injurious to the
seniors of our order, or to others. I
will adorn with my best the dignity of
the art, and will not reveal it's secrets.
will do nothing imprudently nor
through hope of gain. In acute sick
ness will not give purgatives without
the order of the physician. will keep
the secrets of the patients. I will ad-
Minister no poison, neither will allow
it to be administered, even to my en-
emies. [ will notalter the prescriptions
of physicians. I will never substitute
one remedy for another without their
knowledge. I will discourage the fatal
practice of empires. Twill refuse to no
person my legitimate assistance. ]
will not keep in my pharmacy stale or
badly prepared medicaments.
In making and observing these rules
may God assist me. Ainsi So5t-GE!"
This is not such an Anticipated oath
but that we should like to see it revived
and respected.

Interesting to Ladies.

A fashion correspondent, writing from
Paris, says that the polonaise is 20 be
definitely abandoned as part of in
door costume, or of a silk suit, and is
only to be worn in heavy materials,
such as velvet and cloth. In velvet the
polonaises are to be made very long and
Topped slightly at one side, the looping
to be caught up with a buckle and bow
of ribbon. Bonnets are to be worn
rather larger, and trimmed with pro-
fusion Of flowers a wreath, placed in
side the brim instead of around the
crown, will be the most marked innova-
ton. The question of strings OF no
strings has been left in allegiance, and
probably will be settled later in the
season by the fair wearers themselves.
Some effort has been made here to in
troduce boots of buff and gray linen to
be worn with dresses of the same shade,
but the effect is bad, and the articles
unbecoming. Natural flowers are much
worn at one side of the waist, and are
arranged in the following manner A

The Crest0n IOWal Tragedy.

The telegraph has already furnished
pretty full details of the tragedy at
Creston, Iowa, but some additional
facts have come by mail of very re-
markable nature. It will be remem-
bered that the murderer was j. P. Bur-
nett, and the murdered man, J. l..
Brister, his step-son. Mrs. Brister,
since the arrest of Burnett, has made
an affidavit which invests the crime
with new and very singular character.
In her affidavit she says that she for
merly lived in GAINESVILLE, Belmont
county, Ohio, where she married Bris-
ter. In the spring of 1874 her husband
informed her that he had sold her to
James L. Burnett, and that thereafter
she would have to share his happiness.
Subsequently, in Bedford, Iowa, Bur-
nett came into her room one night and
told her that he had given her husband
one-half of his property and now owned
her. He cohabited with her that night
and the next day Brister, apparently
tired of his bargain, abused her for
submitting to him, and went away.
Burnett, however, consoled his remarka-
BILE property by assuring her he should
defend her and kill Brister if he ever
came back. Meantime Brister went to
Charlton and wrote threatening letters,
which so frightened his wife that she
begged to be sent back to Ohio. Bur
nett, instead of SO doing, moved with
her to Creston. He soon tired of his
property. Brister came back to Creston,
and had an interview with Burnett,
which resulted in an agreement between
them for certain sum loaned by Bur
nett to Brister, that the latter should
again take possession of his wife.
Brister refused to sign the papers, be-
cause they drew interest, and Burnett
then seized upon the first opportunity
to kill Brister, which he accomplished
by cutting his throat. The tragedy is
one of the most remarkable on record.
The ignorance and weakness of the
woman are hardly more amazing than
the fendishness of these two brutes,
deliberately taking advantage of he1
ignorance to buy and sell the possession
of her body. While great pity will be
felt for the wretched woman, she is the
only one who deserves any commisera.
ton. He brutal husband has met with
a fate which he deserved, and when the
moose is around the neck of the lnur
derer he will meet the fate which ht
deserves. It should be some consola
ton to her then that she is happily rio

Prevention Of Cruelty to- Amin ais.

There are now upward Of fifty Socie-
ties for the Prevention of Cruelty to
Animals in the United States and the
British-American Provinces. Mr..
Bergh established the first about seven
years ago; and, soon after, the Penn
sylvania Society was set on foot. Fiji
teen new Societies were founded last
year and, from the energy manifested
by all the various organizations, there
is hope that, in time, the wrongs and
the wants of the dumb animals in our
land will receive just attention. The
sixth report of the Pennsylvania Society
shows that it investigated 1854 cases
of cruelty in 1873-an exhibit that indi-
Gates great activity on the pert of the
Society and great inhumanity on the
part of the community. We learn from
the report that the average loss by
death on cattle trains arriving in Phila-
delphia is 1900 per month. On one
train which arrived at Pittsburgh from
Chicago, last April, there were 1900
dead animals, all of which were alive
when they started. This was, however,
an exceptional case but there is unde-
niably necessity for the Congressional
act To prevent cruelty to animals in
transit in the United States"

HydrOphObia.

"John Paul, who has had diversi-
fed experiences with dogs, writes from
his home to the Tribune. He mentions
that he was once bitten on the ear by a
canine, since which time he appears to
have suffered much, not from the bite,
but from Mrs. Paul. He says, "She
begged that [ would send for the doctor
at once, and have my ear cut off, de-
claring that if l did not she should not
have moments peace. Arbitrarily,
perhaps brutally, I declined to crafty
her. In consequence I have not yet had
the bliss of knowing what it is to bound
gayly through life with a leather ear.
It may be that the experience is still
destined to be mine, however, for since
this mad-dog excitement reached its
present height Mrs. Paul asks me if I
feel no symptoms. I cannot scratch the
back of my head without her placing a
bucket of water before me to see If /

Cause of Imperfect Vision.

In lecture before the Royal Institu-
ton, England, on Light and Color, by
DIR. Clark Maxwell, he draws attention
to the fact that all persons have a vel
low spot upon the retina of the eve.
which tends to make color-7ision i'm
perfect. The yellow, he says, is more
pronounced in dark than in fair per-
sons, and it has tendency to impair
vision more when the individual is tired
and overworked than when he is well
and active. To make this spot on the
retina sensible to the observers, DR..
Maxwell threw disc of light on the
screen, and colored the disc by making
the light pass through a solution of
chloride Of chromium. The light thus
produced is of red color, mixed very
largely with greenish rays, which are
copiouslY absorbed by the yellow spot
He then told the observers to wink
slowly at the disc, and they nearly all
then saw large red cloud-like spots
floating over the disc, in consequence of
the absorption of most of the rays, with
the exception of the red, by the yellow
spot in the eye. When the disc was
gazed at steadily, without winking, the
floating red clouds disappeared.

The Efforts of the Hens.

A curious statement has been made
and published in French paper in re-
gard to hens. 1t reckons the number
of hens in France at 100000, valued
at $20, 100000. Of these about one
fifth are killed annually for the market.
There is an annual net production of
00,OO0,O00 chickens, which in market
yield $24, 100000. The extra value to
be added for capons, fattened hens, and
the like, is put at So, 100000 The pro-
ductlon of eggs is reckoned at an aver
age OF 100 eggs per hen, worth $48, 900,
600. In all, it is reckoned that the val
ne OF hens, chickens and eggs, sold in
the markets of France, is $50, 900, 900.

LEFT-HAND PENMANsH1P. A left-hand
writer in the Scientific american gives
some reasons why it is better to write
as he does. The hand is never in the
way of vision. The pen point is always
in plain sight, and SO is the paper to be
written on. There is, consequently, no
inducement to stoop forward or to turn
the head so as to throw the eyes out of
focus. It is a common fault with
those who write much that the left eye
has shorter range than the right. It
is overworked and compelled to adapt
itself to nearer vision. In writing with
the left hand these evils are avoided.
An upright posture is the easiest, and
the eyes are equally distant from the

WINNING GOLDEN OPINIONS -Perha

WINNING GOLDEN OPINIONS. Perhaps
no man living has won more golden
opinions than DIR. Walker, as the enor-
NOUS and widely increasing sale of his
CALIFORNIA VINEGAR BITTERs attests.
We never look into one of our ex-
changes but there is panegyric
of the Bitters staring us in the
face. Our readers will say that
there must be a reason for all
this praise. They are right. The
efficacy of this celebrated medicine is
established by evidence which it is i'm
possible to doubt. Among the thou
sands who have borne testimony to it's
excellence, there is not one dissentient
voice. In very many phases of inor-
ganic disease it seems to be unfailing.
All diseases arising from a vitiated state
of the blood are surely eradicated by it.
1t is an efeetual remedy for pulmonary
complaints, bilious, remittent and in
termlttent EGvers, rheumatism and dys-
pepsia. 1t purges the body of all IN
healthy humors, gives tone to the sys-
TEN, and where the vital powers are
enfeebled, restores their functions to
vigorous and healthy action. All this
it does the more effectually because it's
operation is not interfered with by the
presence of alcohol. The VINEGAR BIT
TIERS is perfectly free from any such
hurtful ingredient. We have always
believed that plants contain the true
remedies for disease, and all the RENE
dies necessary. DR.. Walker is on the
line OF real progress, and we hope that
he will not rest on his present discov-
cries. :
