A vIcr1m or SCIENCE.


Peter Lamb, the clerk in the drug store in
our village, read somewhere the other day
that two drops of the essential oil Of tobacco
placed upon the tongue of cat would kill
the animal instantly. He did not believe it,
and he concluded to try the experiment, to
see if it was 50. Old Squills, the druggist,
has a tom cat weighing almost fifteen pounds,
and Mr.. Lamb, taking the animal into the
back room, shut the door, opened the cats
mouth, and applied the poison. One moment
later, wild, unearthly 'M-e-e-e-e-ow-ow-
ow ~ was emitted by the cat, and to Mr..
Lambs intense alarm the animal,
began swishing around the room with
hair on end and tail in convulsivc excite
ment, screaching like fog whistle. Mr..
Lamb is not certain, but he considers it a
fair estimate to say that the cat made the
entire circuit of the room, over chairs and
under tables, seyenty-four times every
minute, and he is willing to swear to seventy
times, without counting the occasional d.
versions made by the brute for the purpose
of snatohing at Mr.. Lambs pantaloons and
hair. just as Mr.. Lamb had about made
up his mind that the cat would conclude the
gymnastic exercises by eating him, the ami
NAL dashed through the glass sash of the
door into the shop, whisked two jars of
licorce root and tooth brushes of the count
er, tore out the ipecac bottle and four jars
Of hair dye, smashed bottle of balm of
Peru, lit on the bonnet Of a woman who
was drinking soda water, and, alter few
conyulsons, rolled over into a soap box and
died. Mr.. Lamb is now satisfied that cat
actually can be killed in the manner aforc
mentioned, but he would be better satisfied
if old Squills didn't insist upon deducting
the price of those drugs and the glass sasI
from his salary

From All the Year Round.
GROWING.UP.

o, to keep them still around us, baby
darlings, fresh and pure,
"Mother's" smile their pleasure crown
ing, "mother's" kiss their sorrows
cure;
o, to keep the waxen touches, sunny
curls, and radiant eyes,
Pattering feet, and eager prattle-all
young life's lost Paradisel
One bright head above the other, tiny
hands that chung and clasped
Little forms, that, close enfolding, all
of Loves best gifts were grasped;
Sporting in the summer sunshine, glanc-
ing round the winter hearth,
Bidding all the bright world echo with
their fearless, careless mirth.
o, to keep them; how they gladdened
all the path from day to day,
What gay dreams we fashioned of them,
as in rosy sleep they lay;
How each broken word was welcomed,
how each struggling thought was
hailed,
AS each bark went floating seaward, love
bedecked and fancy sailed
Gliding from our jealous watching, glid-
ing from our clinging holding hold,
Go the raveleaves bloom and burgeon;
lol the shy, sweet buds unfold;
Fast to the lip ard cheek and tresses,
steals the maidens bashful Joy;
Fast the frank, bold man's assertion
tones the accents Of the boy.
Neither love nor longing keeps them;
soon in other shapes than ours
These young handswill seize their weap-
ons, build their castles, plant their
flowers;
Soon a fresher hope will brighten the
dear eyes we trained to see;
Soon closer love than ours in those
wakening hearts will be.
So it is, and well it is so, fast the river
nears the main; .
Backward yearnings are but idle; dawn
ing never glows again;
Slow and sure the distance deepens, slow
and sure the links are rent;
Let us pluck our autumn roses, with
their sober bloom content.

TRE wILD NEGRo OF op1oN.

THE WILD NEGRO or OBIoN.
There is a strange specimen of humanity
living in Obion county, Tennessee. Of his
strange eccenuicities some hunters, who re-
turned here yesterday from few days sport
around ReelfOot Lake, tell the following
story -
The negro is called the "Wild Negro of
Obion, - from the fact that he lives in a nude
state, through winter and summer, in a mud
hole, andhas dwelt there for five years past.
lie calls himself Edmund, and has no recol-
lection of ever having been called by any
other name, though born within fifteen
miles of the spot at which he seems to have
permanently located himself
lie processes to have the 'blood fever, VI
which he esteelns culuLle through no other
means than by standing in a hole, about fourI
leetsquare, filed with mud and water to the
depth of his knees. He keeps a fire alwaysI
burning in such II position as to permit the
wind to blow the smoke Of it upon his per-
son. During cold weather he heats the
water by throwing hot ashes into it, The
strong lye thus produced has caused the
splitting open of the calves of his legs and
made the skin very scaly from the ankle toI
the knee. One-haf of each foot has been
frozen off, in consequence of which he now
finds some difficulty in getting about, hob
bling instead of walking. Before he was
possessed of the strange belief that he had
been stricken with the "bood fever" he
must have been a very large, heavy man.
Though he has passed through the four sea-
sons five times without a change from the
clothing which nature gave him, yet he is
still muscular, though ruw-boned and awk-
ward, standing six feet without his socks. Ed
mund has subsisted on very ordinary diet,
consisting Of dry corn and pumpkins When
driven out Of his Iavorite spot Of earth by a
lreshet he hobbies to an old barn not far dis
tant, and impatiently awaits the going down
of the tide, when he returns to stand in the
mud and slush as before. The weather has
so toughened his skin that it appears as hard
and as thick as medium quality of leather.
1t would seem, from the story of our vera
cious sportsman, that the negro is crazy, and
having mistaken the symptoms for that of
blood fever" has gone through a course of
treatment likely in the end to put him in a
corner lot of six feet two. Should not the
poor miserable wretch receive the attention
of some philanthropc, sympathetic people,
and be rescued from his inevitable doom?

A TEAM RUNS OFF A THIRTY
FOOT EMBANKMENT.

Two brothers named Kenyon, residing in
Cambridge, while en- route for Troy recently
with load Of produce, arrived ut a point
about one mile below Johnsonyille, about
four O'Clock. At this place culyert on the
the road bed, washed out recently, necessi-
tates a turn out to the old road bed of the
Albany Northern road. Mr.. Kenyon was
not aware of the change in the road, and
drove directly into the broken culyert-a
fall Of some thirty feet. One Of the horses
was 50 badly injured that it cannot live, and
the other was crippled Both the brother.
We're bruised, but escaped serious injury.
The produce with which the wagon was
loaded was promiscuously mixed.

/ Thirteen years ago a young man Wooed and
won a young lady in a village not far from
Davenport. The parents ofthe girl objected,
and there was deal of trouble; but finally
the couple were married at the home Of the
bride. Three months after. the bridegroom
desired to move to California, but the family
Of his wife opposed her emigration, and the
result was that the husband started for the
Pacific Coast without her After the first
six months no tidings from the husband
were receiyed-and in less than a year news
came that he was dead In 1868 the widow
married young man who had recently ar-
rived from Germany; and her second hus-
band was entirely ignorant OF the fact that
his bride was widow. But where "igno-
rance is bliss, It's folly to be wise" Shortly
after the marringe the husband purchased a
iiurm in'Scott Coanty, and ON that farm the
coupe have lived ever since, and several
children have blessed thcir Union.
-Four weeks $40 the FIRST husband of this
woman arrived in Davenport, and on making
inquiries iearnei the history of his wife's
marriage Then le rode out to see her. 1t
was fortunate for her that her lege lord was
away from home, for she was very much
affected She told him that she supposed
him dead, and so married another, and chidcd
him for neglecting her as he did. lie had a
long story to tell, the real gist of it being
that he had determined never to return until
he became rich. And here he was-t1chi
But his wife was miserable in his presence
and he was miserable too.
The end of the conference was, that the
first husband returned to Davenport to con-
suit a lawyer-and the end of the consulta-
ton was, that the husband went to the wife
and had another long talk with her and then
the two separated, never to meet again, for
the man determined to cross the ocean and
spend the balance Of his days in Germany.
The day he left the wife entered her suit
for divorce on the ground of desertiJn; the
notice was forthwith served on the defendant,
and lie accepted service. At the next term
Iof the Circuit Court the defendants name
will be called and there will be no response.
There viii be default, and decree Of divorce
granted. And maybe the wife will be mar
ried second time to the Gather of her child
ren, and so remain contented in the delight
rul home in which She now lives in elegance
land comfort.
