A LIVING SAcRIFICE.-Miss Crissy Herker,
AL intelligent and beautiful girl, sixteen years
DID, daughter OF wealthy farmer residing at
While's Valley, Penn, deliberately burned
herself to death last week under the influence
of extraordinary religious fanaticism. She
imagined she had committed the objectionable
sin, and to atone for it she had to make a burn t
offering to her ''Im manuel. This delrlsion had
affected her for five or six years, and during
that period, she would erect affairs on different
parts of her fathers farm, and sacrifice lambs,
by burning them. She was closely watched,
but during the absence of her father, he being
widower, she erected an altar in the kitchen
cut of some quilting frames, and setting the
combustible material afire, cody laid herself
on them, and was burned to death. Her en-
tire form was burned beyond recognition, ex-
cept her face, which wore placid smile. She
had evidently maintained the position she had
ut first assumed on placing herself on the burn
ing pile, her head resting on her hand, as she
lay full length on the altar, as she called it,
She left note in her Bible, which she had
been reading Immediately before her singular
and awful sacrifice, telling her father her views
and promising to meet him on the ''eternal
ground"

TIE NEW BABY WASHER.-The Pail Mall
Gazette is firm believer in the story that an
invention is ready for parents which acts as
follows
ssYou simply insert the begrimmed and mo-
lasses coated infant in an orifice, which can be
made Of any required size by turning for ten
minutes cog-wheel with electrical attach
ments. The Child glides gently down high
ly-polished inclined plane; his lips are m t at
its terminus by an India-rubber tube from
which the infant can draw tactical nourishment.
While iu this compartment, which is lined with
plate-glass mirrors, the perturbed spirit Of the
infant is soothed by its frantic efforts to demol-
ish its own image, reflected in the glass, with
., nickled-plated combined teeth-cutter. nail
knife. rattle and tack hammer, which are
thrust into the baby's hand by an automatic
monkey. Fatgued by its destructive efforts,
the infant falls asleep, while the organ attach
NV Little Bed Then it slips into the third
com partment. Here the baby is washed. An
other small tube administers a dose of soothing
syrup. and the infant glides from the machine,
IFS nails pared, its hair conbed, ready for the
habliments rendered necessary by the fall of
our first parents"

Experiments on 1ntoxication.

| The Journal des Commissioners Medicale,
publishes an article by DR.. Cornil on certain
experiments made by DR.. Magnan to invcsti.
gate the effects Of alcoholism on the animal
economy. The first series comprises the adj
| ministration OF brandy to dogs. The animal at
| first evinces some excitement, which gradually
| increases, and ends in stupefaction and a COM
atose sleep. accompanied by a fall in the tenn
perature OF the body, insensibility and paraly-
sis of the hind legs. This state is transtory
but it the experiment be indefinitely repeated,
peculiar nervous sensitivcncss may be re-
marked at the end OF . fortnight. The subject
prcks up it's esrs, watches, then starts at the
slightest noise, shows fear, and experiences it,
l,lsons and hallucna ions, which assume the
form of a regular deirium within the space of
a month, with fits of trembling. If the brandy
be suppressed, death cnsues, accompanied by
indifference and stupefaction. There is great
difference between the action OF mere brandy
and the liquor known as absinthe, which is an
alcoholic tincture OF arscmisia obsinthium, or
wormwood; and DR.. Magnan's experiments go
TAR to refute the opihions ct thai rho consider
this fayorite beverage to be inert, except in so
far as it is alchoflolic. Given in weak dose to
a dog, shivering is observed to take place.
with muscular twitches and jerks in the neck,
and rapid but limited motions OF the head,
shoulders and back. Administered in heavy
doses, convulsive fits are the the consequence,
but differing materially from paraplegia or de-
Iiriun tremens. Hallucinations, moreover, APP
pear at the very first experiments, instead Of
being nearly the last stage, as in the case OF
mere brandy. In man DR.. Magnan divides In
toxication by alcohol into three stages-nlania,
delirium tremens, and stupor. We need not
here describe these different states, which are
pretty generally known, but cannot omit the
fact that convulsive fits almost exclusively oc-
cur in that kind OF alcoholism chat is produced
by absnthe. Passing to tae subject ofchronic
intoxication, it either ends in madness or gen
eral paralysis. The former is produced or ac-
companied by unnatural obesity, the latter by
selcrosis of the nervous centres. These differ
ent states are effects Of ''intoxication" in its
real sense Of poisoning" and should not be
COMPOUNDED with mere dipsonania, or hard
drinking at irregular intervals, or by fits and
starts.

The WHEEL OF FORTUNE.-There was
never more compl t. application the truth
OF the adage that it is a ''long lane that has no
turn At least. such we take it, to have been
the feelings of a certain Eureka family when
brief telegram informed them of the death of
an only aunt in London. The relatives here,
however,are two acknowledgement, and can
not, therefore, be expected don many weeds,
no matter how inconsolable their grief. In the
case untler notice the healthy condition ct the
bank account of the dear departed ought to op-
crate as powerful assuagor. A three-million
estate ought to exercise a comforting effect. 1t
most assuredly would were we the chief nour-
ner. Well, to hurry on with our story, the old
aunt, q widow lady, died in London, seized
and possessed Of hrec millions in lands and
money. Her husband, who was very wealthy
at the time, departed this life many years ago
The old lady hung OH, like rich people gener-
ally do who have poor relations. But she has
finally gone to rest. Peace te her ashes. She
had four brothers, all of whom have been resi-
dents OF the Pacific coast since the early days
OF gold mining in California. Two of them
live in San Diego, and the other two in one of
the COW counties of onr neighboring State. All
OF the brothers are unmarried save one. and he
has but a single issue, a married daughter, who
has resided in Eureka for the last three years.
The four brothers and the niece living here are
therefore, 'he sole heirs to that three million
estate across the Atlantic. Let us see Five
into three millions goes six hundred thousand
times. No Irish diviaend about that. It is
grand cash, and should serve 70 keep green the
memory OF the good old woman for a long
time. Two of the California brothers passed
Palisade not long since on their way to Lon
don, to file their claim to the estate. Our Eu-
reks friends who have so suddenly become rich
have hitherto been unfortunate in the extreme.
Since in Eureka they have been once burnt out
and once flooded, losing every dime they pos
sessed i'll both instances. Being frugal and in
dustrious they have struggled with fate's stern
DEGREES maintaing under the most trying cir
cumstances measure OF cheerfulness seldom
encountered here below.-Eueko Sentinel.

SIT AND SET. LAY AND LIE.-The two
words. ''st'' and ''set" are too mich mistaken
for each other. When grammar cltss is asked
for the first time if it is right to say 'rns set"
one half of them perhaps will vote one way and
the OTHER half, the other. The Court means
the Judge or judges; the judge sits, the court
sits, the jury sits, hens sit birds sit. Settling
hen" is wrong; hens are not ''setters'' or point
ers. Set requires All objective case; we set 4
chair, but we sit in it. There is similar dill
fieulty in the word sslie'' and '.lay." In fami-
lies whose hens ''sct" everything "lays," and
all .s'lay abed.'' The queted words are wrong.
Lay. means to place. and requires an adjective.
as the ''hen lays eggs ..Now lay me-.
We should say the book lies the table; he
lies abed; lies low; everybody lies, if you please,
but nobody lays unless he has something to lay.
