terness Of controversy. We desire a
proper equality, equity and fairness,
protection for the weak, restraint upon
the strong-in short, justly distributed
power. These are American ideas. the
very essence of American independence.
and to advocate the contrary is unwor-
thy of the cause and auditors of Amer

sectionalism is of right, and should be,
dead, and buried with the past. Our
work is for the present and the future
In our agricultural brotherhood and its

Hunters Killing Seals.

Our readers may remember picture
which appeared In Punch, where hip
popotamus and an attractive young Ia

the apparently formidable monster is
represented as saying to the innocent
looking girl, Sc Who would suppose,

and which adds so much to her personal
attractions, has been ruthlessly stripped
from the body of one whose maternal
instincts were quite as strong as her
own, and whose child-the mother be-
ing slain-was left to perish by starva-
ton.
Seals, be it remember, are not fish
cold-blooded creatures who lay eggs,
and take little note of their off pring.
A lady herring or Goldfish can scarcely
have much maternal affection, or, if she
has, it must be considerably diluted if
she tries to show little individual ten
derness to each of her hundred thou
sand babies. But a seal is altogether
different bei1g-a warm blooded, warm
hearted, intelligent, affectionate crea-
ture, and therefore we ask our fair read
HI, ToIv
cts during the month of Febl uarY, to
try and use their influence to diminish
the crueIties of seal-hunting. Here are
the simple facts. The hunters, poleax
in hand, watch the young calves, and the
instant the unhappy mothers approach
their young, kill them. The poor calves
are left to starve to death. Many le.-
tiers were recently addressed to the
newspapers commenting on the cruelty
of killing so many I" nursing mothers, !"
and allowing the little ones to die in
tens of thousands but we are not aware
that any practical remedy has yet been
devised against this brutal and wasteful
cruelty. While the massacre is taking
place, thousands of sea-birds swarm
| over the ice, and cover the sky. The
seals are skinned on the ice, and the
skins are dragged with ropes to the ship.
| A man cannot drag more than two or
! three skins at once, as they weigh very
heavy. Seals are shot, harpooned, and
| speared, but the seal pole-axe is the IA
| vorite weapon. There are four kinds OF
seals--the rat-seal, the bearded or ground
seal, the harp-seal, and the bladder
nose. The crest of the female is very
small, almost indistinguishable. The
following fact illustrates the intelligence
of the mother seal. She will often &c
away ia the morning to fish, and will
not return for many hours, and although
the hummock on which she left hel
young may have drifted for miles, and
alt red in size and shape, she will inva
riably find it.-Hq1per'S Weekly.

An Eagle Tries to Garry OFF a Girl

On Saturday, the Sd ultime, a girl
named Elizabeth Moore, daughter of
Albert Moore, living in the northeast
corner of Cleburne county, was re-
turning home from a neighbours house,
whittier she had been sent on an erTand,
when she felt something Heavy strike
upon her shoulder and the next instant
she was borne to the ground. She says
that her first impression was that she
had been seized by a panther or some
other wild beast, but soon felt the taiOns,
of what proved to be an eagle clutching
her sides and arms, lacerating the flesh
in a fearful manner /; and with its beak
pecking her on the head, she was drag
ged some distance on the ground.
Pretty soon the eagle having secured
his prize, with claws and bill firmly
fixed, raised her from the ground
and sailed at from three to four feet
above the earth for some distance. Oc
oasionally she was dropped on the
ground, but the eagle would as often
raise her again, making few and serious
wounds with his talons in her bOdV and
his beak in her head, till at las the

tempted to light on the limb of a red
oak tree on the roadside, when his hold
again gave way and the girl fell to the
earth seriously stunned and hurt. She
was unconscious for a time, then clam
bered over the fence near by into her
fathers orchard and began making the
best Of her way to the house near, when
she was met by her mother, who had
been attracted by her screams, and was
fastening to her relief. The most re
markable part of the matter is, that the
girl did not see the eagle at all. a
shawl which had been securely fastened
about her head, so as to project ever
her face, hid her rude antagonist from
her view. The track along which she
was dragged, however, was plainly Wis

I have discontinued the use, with return of
the symptoms of which I wrote you. I have

MODERN MEDICAL DISCOVERY is
claimed that disease, with few excep-

men; and yet a noted professor of New

" thousands are annually slaughtered

of medicine are in existence, one of
which makes the patient i'll, " in order

of treatment and both failed. He then
appealed to natures curative-herbs
