Philip Gilbert Hamerton, in his ad
mifable papers on "Intellectual Life, "
thus talks to the man who stopped
his papers" Newspapers are to the
civilized world what the everyday
house talk is to the members of the
household, they keep up our daily in
tcrest in each other, they save us from
the evils of isolation. To live as a
member of the great white race OF
men, the race that has filled Europe
and America, and colonized or con-
quered whatever other territory it has
been pleased to occupy, to share from
day to day its cares, its thoughts, its
inspirations, it is necessary for every
man to read his paper. Why are the
French peasants so bewildered at sea?
1t is because they never read news
paper. And why are the inhabitants
of the United States, though scatter
ed over territory fourteen times the
area of France, so much more able
for concerted action, so much more
alive and modern, so much more in
terested in new discoveries Of all
kinds, and capable of selecting and
utilizing the best Of them? 1t is be-
cause the newspaper penetrates every
where; and even the lonely dweller
on the prairie or in the forest, is not
itellectually isolated from the great
currents Of public life, which flow
through the telegraph and press"

A Fiendish M other.

An old negro woman by the name
of Brown, living about nine miles
south of Covington, KY, had a
daughter 10 or Is years of age, who
had for long time been hed-ridden
with a hopeless attack of paralysis.
Her mother, an incarcerate tiend,
growing weary of the constant care
and trouble which the afflicted child
required at her hands, determined to
put her out of the way and selected
the most cruel and torturing method
that debased ingenuity could suggest
-burnins-expecting to conceal her
crime under the guise OF an accident.
Having perfected her diabolical
plans, about two weeks ago she set
about putting them into execution
Placing the child on chair by the
fireplace, she began saturating the
head and clothing of the almost help
less child from bottle of turpentine
that she had procured for that pur-
pose. The child struggled with
what power of motion she could COM
mand, knocked the bottle from the
hand of the mother and broke it, sat
urating the mothers clothing with the
inflammable fluid. In the struggle
the mothers clothing took fire from
the fireplace and she abandoned her
terrible crime to save her own life
She ran and threw herself into q
branch near by, and extinguished the
flames, but not until she had been
fatally burned. At the time it was
supposed to be an accident, dut the
monster woman subsequently, when
in the agonies of death, revealed the
facts as above detailed.

The New York World says of it:
In theory the utility of the invention
seems very clear. The passenger on
board our ocean steamers has only to
put on his India rubber suit before
embarking, and he is safe from
drowning, whatever may happen to
his vessel. IF the latter meets with
fatal accident the provident passen-
ger can blow his coat and trousers,
cram few days. rations into his wa
tcr-proof knapsack, and abandoning
the ship, 60 on board of himself
merrily ashore. He cannot spring
leak, nor take fire, nor shift his cargo
as an extraneous vessel is liable to
do. He is in little danger of being
struck by lightning or of wrecking
himself on an iceberg by recklessly
scudding through fog. With the
exception of the chance of collision
with some fast steamer, or Of "dlfi-
Guilty." as Southern journalists phrase
it, with bullying shark or a swash-
buckling swordfsh, he runs hardly
any such dangers which beset those
who 60 down to the sea in ships.

Mrs. Eva Marcus, who lives at l89
Broadway, exhibited rare presence
Of mind yesterday. While standing
near the stove, about noon, her
clothes caught fire, but she did not
discover it until the blaze shot over
her shoulder. Contrary to the
actions of most persons in such a
critical moment, she retained her
presence of mind enough to realize
her danger and act nationally. Throw
ing back the covering from bed
near by jumped in, and, pulling the
quilts tight about her, smothered the
flames effectually. With the excep-
ton of burn on the arm and badly
singed hair, she suffered no bodily in
jury. The lady says she probably
never went to bed so quick as she
did yesterday, and it was certainly
the first time she forgot to remove
her shoes before retiring. 1t is the
first instance of covering up because
she was too warm that we have ever
heard of.

Temperance Banner


We first want to understand what
distilling means. It is the art Of re-
ducing the proportion of water, and
increasing that Of alcohol. Thus you
see the distilled liquors are stronger,
more fiery and stimulating than beer,
ETC., which are only fomented, be-
cause they have more alcohol in
them. We will see what.thc process
is. The liquor, such as fermented
grapejuicc or fermented wort of malt,
is put into still, large vessel with
a dome-head, having a spout-like pipe
passing away from it. That pipe,
after it grows narrow, is bent round
and round amongst water to keep it
cold. The fire under the still makes
the liquor hot; the alcohol rises up in
steam or vapor, and at less heat
than what it is mixed with. The
vapor goes away along the tube or
worm, as it is called. and is cooled
so as to become liquid, and run out
as spirits. These are doctered in
various ways, before they get to the
market, but that is how they are pro-
duced. The alcohol as it comes from
the still is SO strong and powerful
that it would kill any one who should
drink it. 1t is rink poison, and
has to be adulterated greatly before
any one can drink it safely. The dis
tillers have way of their own OF
doctoring this alcohol, adding a great
deal of water to weaken it, and then
putting in certain drugs and poisons
to give it the particular flavor and
twang they like, even using lead, oil
of vitriol, oil of turpentine, red pep
per, benzine, nux vomica. Though
the amount Of alcohol is lessened,
what remains there is still a poison
and always poison. / cannot begin
to tell you of all the deceptions used
in the liquor business, but we know
this: that very few people know what
they are drinking, and if they could
only see the different stuffs put in,
they would lift up their hands in
horror. But being told merely does
not convince them. So many like to
drink that they think temperance
people only say these things to fright
en- them. When will people desire
to learn what is good and what hurts
them? You all want to learn, don't
You.
