Horrible Death.
AS horrible a death as it is possible for man
to suffer, occurred at Language, KY. Saturday
night. The victim was John Fnnegan, an en-
gineer on the Short Line Railroad. Finnegan
was on freight train. The axle broke and
precipitated the engine and cars down a slight
embankment. Finnegan was by some means
caught fast by the machinery and held so that
his companions could not effect his release
Two streams of hot water poured upon his face
and body from broken boiler. No relief could
be extended the sufferer and after the IN ost
horrible agony he became unconscious and soon
died. When a physician from Louisville ar
rived Finnegan was dying with his tongue al
most dropping off from the effects of thr hot
water which had forced itself into his mouth.

it commenced with bad cold, which being neglect
ed, soon settled into Catarrh. Since that time L
have suffered more than tongue tell, for at times
my head seemed to be on fire, and it was impossible
to lie down on account of the constant dropping in
my throat The last four or five years have been
in agony, as in addition to Catarrh, my sight and
hearing both became impaired to such extent that
soon grew weary of life. One day was induced to
try one box of Reders German Snuff, but having
used almost every remedy, done so without any
faith in its power to cure.
had not taken it three days before 1 noticed
change for the better; at the end of week was
able to sleep with comfort, as the choking in nv
throat no longer troubled me- and before had used
the last OF the Snuff my sight and hearing began to
return.
AS write you this letter con truly say that your
herman Snuff has saved my life, and had 1 known
OF its virtue in the past might by its use have saved
myself years of suffering and perfect torture.
Yours truly, MARY j. PORTER.

PoTATION OF CRoPs.-The Prair.
lie Farmer says all good agricultur
lists agree that proper rotation of
crops should be established and
carefully looked after. The chem
lists inform US that the nutriment of
food producing plants is taken in
part from the soil in solution through
the roots, and partly from the air
through the leaves, and therefore
that suitable food must be provided,
or q manifest deterioration will re-
suit.
The good farmer, while he aims
to produce the largest crops at the
least expense, will also be careful to
keepyup the fertility Of the soil by a
judicious rotation of crops, supple
mented by the application Of ma.
nures to the land.
A judicious rotation of crops is
imperativety demanded and prac.
ticed by oil progressive farmers,
and it is one of the best plans fol
keeping up the standard fertility Of
tho soil.

Build up Home Industry.

From the Mobile Register.I
1t is sound and a. wholesome
rule in a business community like
Mobile to support its homo trade and
home industries, and to mutually
help each other just as far as it can
be done without sacrifice of extra
cost. We have in our eye q family
of fortune that habitaally seeks .
Northern climate every summar for
health and recreation, but makes it |
a rule to make all of its domestic
purchases in Mobile, whether for q
silk dress, a carpet, or other piece |
OF furniture, that can be found here. |
The habit is worthy Of study and
imitation, for the obvious reason
that occupations of trade and indus
try may be sustained in our own city
and SO much of additional pOpula-
ton supported upon sums of money
expended in Northern cities for ar
ticles that can be made and sold as
cheaply and of as good quality at
home.
We illustrate it within our own
doors. The Register roof covers a
first-class job Office, at the head Of
which is q foreman of the best skill,
taste and experience. From that
Office we can turn out every descrip-
ton of work from mammoth pos.
ter to miniature card, and we are
/ pledged to do that work as we'll and
as cheaply as it can be duplicated
in any Northern Office. And yet it
is notorious that it is a common
custom among Mobile merchants to
reserve their orders for their printed
blanks Of all kinds until they go to
New York in the summer. There
J they are given to swell the small
rills of industry in a strange commn-
nifty at the cost of their own. This
is literally taking bread out Of the
, mouths of Mobile operatives and
their families-bread that would
add Just that number more OF citi-
zens who, as common taxpayers
and workmen, go to make up the
, strength and wealth ola commun.
