CastOria.

It'll mistake to suppose that Castoria is
not adapted to grown persons az well as Chill
dren. They only need to increase the quantity.
But children have 80 many complaints for
which Castoria is adapted-like Wind Collie,
Sour Stomach, Worms, letter, Tecthing and
Group, that 1t is especially recommended for
them.
Its cfects are more certain than Castor
OIL. 1t contains no alcohol and is as pleas.

regulating the stomach End bowels the Cas-
toria cOois tho blood, expels worms and
prevents feveri5hness, Qulets the nerves and
produces health-then OF course children
can sleep in quiet and mothers can
rest.
Castoria is recOnm ended by all physi-
clans and nurses who have tried it, and 1t is
having rapidly increasing sale. 1t is pre-.

DAILY AND WEEKLY GLOBE
vERMONT'S LARGEST AND BEST
NEWSPAPER.

The new year. coinmemorating the compile.
ton OF the first century OF our Independence
and witnessing the election OF a president and,
for the first time in our history, an entire ma
tonal house OF representatives, will be one of
splendid possibilities both to Journalism and
The country,
THE GLOBE will avail itself OF the former, by
giving the news, late, prompt, fresh and full |;
by impartial comments on the news OF the
hour; by candid, honest discussion OF the Is
sues of the day by full reports OF local occur
rences, and correspondence both local and
general by agricultural readings, market re-
ports. and by selections both grave and gay.
In a word, the endeavor viii be to make THE
GLOBE live newspaper, indispensable TO the
farmer and business man, TO the politician and
student, to the Office, counting room and the
family circle.
That the country may realize tho possibilities
seemingly in store for 1t, we shall on our part,
as In times past, advocate the principles and
policy OF the republican party, as we under
stand them, and, to that end we shall labor to
make 1t better and purer by combating It's
errors and exposing the wrong-doers In its
ranks. We shall favor and strive for real ad.
ministrative reform, speedy return to specie
payments, an honest maintenance OF the Ia.
a faithful and economical administration OF the
government, municipal, state and nationals and
shall support only honest, capable meA for
office.
AS an earnest of the future, we can only point
TO our course in the past, and assure our pat
rons that hereafter as heretofore, we shall en-
deavor 10 make THE GLOBE better and better,
and more and more worthy OF support with
each succeeding month. What IHR GLOBE
has been during The less than three years OF It's
existence is well known, that 1t has been fully
appreciated Its generous support amply attests.
AS q medium OF advertising, THE GLOBE is un-
surpassed in Vermont. The combined daily
ana weekly circulation exceeds that OF any other
daily and weekly newspaper In Vermont the
circulation OF the daiyis equal to that of any
other daily In Vermont; the circulation OF The
WEEKLY GLOBE is much larger than the combined
circulation Of all the other peekly newspapers in
Rutiand county and is moro than one-half
larger than that OF any other weekly Journal in
western Vermont. Advertisers make note OF

The New York Sun Of the 25th refers
to the press and the pulpit in the follow
ing sensible manner
A difficult question has been exciting
the minds OF a body of clergymen who
met to discuss it. How can the secular
press be made tributary to religion9'
This is the question to which the theolo-
gians were unable to discover a s~atisfac
tory answer, 1t is not in the power Of
the clergy to control the press in the
interest of their Oreeds. The press
would soon undermine Its own power if
it gave itself up to Gathering over theolo'
gical mysteti-s and dogmas. 1t is the
duty of the pr IS, respecting religion, to
make application Of its practical laws as
occasion may Offer; to try or test public
affairs, events, movements and men &C
cording to the principles Of righteous
ness and to condemn everything that is
adverse to true religion in being false,
fraudulent, scurriious, tawdry, odious, or
hypocritical. Do not these ~theologians
understand that the press, in so far as it
does this, renders service to religion, in
so far ss religion is the practical right
eousness of the scriptures2 The press
may not thus support this sect or that
sect; it may not add to The uproar Of re.
ligious disputants; it may not stir up the
spirit of d%eviltry in the name Of divinity;
but it does something very mBch better.

Lusus Nature.

We were shown this morning a strange
freak Of nature-a kitten perfect in every
point and particular, except the head,
which was double. The body of the head
was one at the base and up to the ears,
thence it spread out and showed two
perfect mouths and noses, with three
perfect eyes, oAe Oh each side and one
in the middle. 1t came into existence
early this morning, and, strange to say,
had been instantly killed by its mother.
She had bitten of the top Of the skull
right In the center. Mr.. j.. j. Connolly,
of Monroe street, has possession Of
this curiosity, which he has preserved
in a sealed bottle Of spirits and will
probably place it on exhibition at some
drugstore.

18th Of June, and will pan out TWEEN ty-
i've bushels to the acre. The wheat was
sown among the cotton, and the latter
crop wal gathered, the stalks cut down
and now a magnificent crop Of wheat is
the result, This is practical farming
that should be followed by the cotton
loving grangers Of Tennesses and ad.
joining States because it pays.
One Of the most popular falacies with
many Memphis people, as with others, is
the dread of night air. The casual ad-
mission Of air during the night is pro-
hibited, all apertures are carefully closed
aud if the intention could be realized
not an inch Of fresh air would be admit
ted during the hours of sleep. Yet,
what air a w breathe at night except
night air2 aud the choice is between
pure air from without or foul air from
within. A window open at the top more
or less during the night eau never hurt
any one. In cities, and especially large
ones, night air is at most times the purest
aud best to be had.
Our item-huntiug reporter, on yester-
day, heard an able and animated discus
sion as to the proper way to open an
oyster, during which three methods we're
stated, and each man insisted that his
method was the best. One insisted that
the knife should be inserted in front, the
shell opened partially and then cut the
bivalve loose from the shell below; an
other, that a piece of the shell should be
knocked off with a hammer first so as to
more easily insert the knife, while the
third advocated the style of opening the
oyster shell from the back end or joint
with the knife. During the learned argu-
meut several glasses of book beer we're
drank, aRd as our reporter left a fight
was almost iminent between the three
friends over the oyster-opening business,
but our man, after hearing the points
raised and discussed, came to the conclu
sion that the best way to open an oyster
was to let some other fellow do it, but
the best way to eat an oyster was to do
it yourself.

Amusements.

MEMPHIS THEATER Certainly not du.
ring the present season has an audience
enjoyed a more pleasing surprise than
did the Memphis Theater audience last
night during the presentation of that
charming comic opera Girohe-G iroAa by
the Julia Mathews English opera bouffe
company. Manager Brooks must GER
tainly have kept one of the best and
greatest attractions for the last of the
season. The audience was large, fash
ionable and critical; a great majority Of
cur leading professional musicians were
present, and they, to a man, we're loud
in their praises of Miss Mathews, whose
voice is exceedingly sweet and flexible,
and thrills upward like that Of a lark.
What pleased the critics was not only
the good acting of Miss Mathews but
her success in catching the higher notes
whenever deemed necessary, and doing
so with skill and apparent ease.
Indeed, at the close of the first act Miss
Mathews became at once a Memphis
iavorite, who, with her fine troupe, could
remain here two weeks and sing herself
further into public favor, as well as sing
dueats into her own purse. Over Fifty
seats for Tonight were sold at the box
office last evening during the first inter-
mission, and this is q compliment which
has not been paid to any other srtist in
Memphis during the present dramatic
season. The opera Giroae. Giroaa was
most attractively sung and was accom-
panied by appropriate music. Mics
Mathews, in the dual role, was every.
thing to be wished for. she has not that
rollicking FFeneh style Of Aimee, but
she resembles her in more points than
one, and especially in her acting. Mr..
Hall, as Don Bolero," Mr.. Forester,
as " M%arasquin," Mr. Howard, as "Mour.
zouk," formed an excellent support ald
deservedly received repeated marks of
public approval, Many of the minor roles
we're presented in quite a musical and
sprightly manner-those of "Paquita,"
BY Miss Wiseman, and " Pedro" by Mics
Keene, being most noticeable. The solos,
duets, trios, quartettes, auintettes and
choruses we're eapitally rendered during
the evening, and the repeated encores in
sisted upon proved cOnclusively that
public taste had been supplied in a most
satisfactory manner with that musical
food always and ever so much in demand
among Memphians. Tonight another
rare treat is in store for the public-Lc.
cocq's opera entitled La file de Madame
Angot, with Miss Mathews as "Clairette'
aud Mr.. Hall as Larivaudierre. The
cast is a strong one and it is needless to
predict a crowded house upon ihis occa.
sion. At the matinee tomorrow Bales
Bohemian Girl will DO presented and at
night 0aenbach's he Grande Duchesse
viii be produced.

The very essence of FIRE insurance is
protection, security, and at the same
time stability. A company that fails
when the crisis comes for which it is in.
tended to be a safeguard, is worse than
no company at all, for it doubles instead
of ~diminishes the loss by fire. The in.
surer who has taken out one Of its peli.
cics finds, when his house has burned
down, that the security he thought he
had is worthless, AID moreover that
he has thrown away the premiums he has
paid. Consequently, the first duty that
seekers for indemnity should exact is
solidity, age and prompt payments Of
legitimate losses. In this connection we
call attention to the statement of the
Royal Insurance Company Of Liverpool,
England, in another column. 1t shows
us they have in solid, substantial assets,

quarters at Louisville, KY, and our
friend Colonel Il. T. Tomlinson, of the

ing losses all quitbles and t%echnicalities
are avoided, these gentlemen and their
company believing that the spirit, rather
than the strict letter Of the contract,
should be adhered to. Strict attention
is directed to the moral hazard of all
risks, as well as 10 the commercial stand
ing, financial condition and general rep
u%tation Of the assured.
OF Colonel Tomlinson we need not
speak. His social and business inter-
course with us for the past thirteen
years show the estimation in which our
people hold him.

NOVEL FIRE ALARH.
A Wonderful MOcRfng. Bird ON fha
Police RDre0.

A Wonderful MOcRing. Bird ON n
Police RoFee.
The absolute necessity for a FIRE alarm
in Memphis becomes more apparent
daily, as in many instances the alarm of
lire does not reach the engine.houses for
nearly half an hour. On Second street,
near the Adams street enrine-house,
there is a hooking bird that gives eyi.
denee Of wonderful sagacity, intelli
gence, instinct. reason or whatever such
can be called by scientists. Whenever
the police patrol whistle four times as a
FIRE alarm the mocking-bird, which il
on the alert, takes it up and gives
the four whistles so naturally that the
most scientific whistling "peeler" could
not beat it. The bird gives the notes the
rafting sound of the pea stuffed whistles
by the police, and it never makes
a mistake. The boys at the Adams
street engine-house, whenever they hear
that bird at night give the alarm by four
whistles, jump at once to their horses
and engine, because they know that the
bird has heard the alarm even though
sounded down in South or up in North
Memphis and before it can be taken M
and sent onward on the air to the engine
Occasionally, when the cap
tains and sergeants Of the night police
patrol 90 on their grand rounds and blow
twice for the men on the beats, the bird
catches it and sounds four times, but
seeing its mistake it repeats the notes
only twice, by way of correcting its error
and admitting its dereliction of duty to
the fire boys at the corner. This is its
apology for doing wrong, but of late it
seems to have been able to distinguish
between the four blasts given as a fire
alarm and the two used for calling up
the police pstrolmen. How to explain
the mystery is a subject worthy of the
attention Of naturalists and scientists.

Of truth by saying the vocal selection
from Mozart would not have been dared
by any other man in this city. That
very same Magic Flute" as the Appeal
terms it, has been and will be again

If the memory of the Appeal will please
revert to the evening of the grand Pythian

gentleman dared to sing before an au-

orchestra Of thirty-six instruments and
