4 Parrot on the Witness Stand.

An engineer of the British navy, who
had served her Majesty faithfully for
fourteen years, was recently dismissed
in disgrace on the evidence of a parrot
He was charged with stealing a parrot
from Maj. Dooley, an Indian officer, who
was returning to England on the steam
ship Simoom There were no fewer
than 200 parrots on board, alllooking
alike, and the great point Of proof was
the identity of the bird which had been
lost with that which had been found in the
engine room. The court-martial deter
mined to, put the parrot on the stand.
It was objected that the conversations of
the parrot in the absence Of the prisoner
could not be received as evidence, but
the point was overruled. The parrot
testified in a very gentlemanly manner
that he had belonged to the Major, and
the engineer was sent away in disgrace.

In Debt Head Over Heels.

Debt is what ails this country. The
mercantile firm of r. G. Dun & Co.,
which has made as careful an exanina-
ton of the subject as practicable, re-
ports that the figures most accessible
show that the national debt amounts to
So, 200, 100000; that the States debt
amounts to 1876, 900, 000 the municipal
debt to 81, 900, 900, 600, the railway debt
to $2,300,O00,0OO, the discounts and
loans of national and other banks to
another 81, 900, 100000, and the loans by
insurance and other mortgage ma
chinery may be safely estimated at an
other $500,000,000. Grouping all these
together, the visible Indebtedness of
which some financial conception may be
formed, amounts to the vast sum of ST.
275, 100000. Seven thousand mil
lion dollars is simply an inconceivabls
amount of money. Even the interest
on this enormous Indebtedness, at per
cent. a year, amounts to over $3.50. 0O0,-
000 The history of the world may be
searched in vain for parallel to this
financial picture.

The New Russian LeYies.

The Russian militia, which has been
called out by an imperial decree, was
organized late in 1876. Every man be-
tween the ages of 20 and 40 belongs to
the militia; and soldiers of the regular
army, after completing their period of
service with the colors and in the re-
serve, are also embodied in it. The
whole force is divided into two bans.
The troops or the first of these divisions
may either be formed into militia corps,
OF, in case Of need, may be employed as
reinforcements for the regular army,
should the regular reserves Of this lat
ter become exhausted or prove INSULT
cient. The first ban consists Of men of
the four youngest classes and of the first
four classes Of men who have passed into
the militia out of the reserve. The
second ban comprises all the remainder
of the force, and is used to form militia
corps only. The present levy is set at
1873, 900 men.

Weak Eyes.

A very simple remedy for weak orsore
eyes is recommended, as follows: Get
a fve-cent cake of elder flowers at the
druggists, and steep in one gill Of soft
water-it must be stepped in bright tin
or earthenware; strain nicely, and then
add three drops of laudanum; bottle it
tight and keep in cool place then use
it as wash, letting some of it get in the
eyes. Follow this and relief is certain.
Ii the eyes are painful or much sore,
make small soft congresses, wet in the
mixture, and bind over the eyes at night.
[ can warrant the above as harmless and
sure, having tried it in a number of
cases where other skill and remedies had
utterly failed. IF the eyes are badly in
famed use it very freely; and tea
made of elder flowers, and drunk, would
help cleanse the blood. Pure rock salt
and water will strengthen your weak
eyes if you battle them daily in it. I
would earnestly advise you to avoid MKT
ures or washes containing mineral and
other pOlSonS ----- ~ -

Inverted Soldiers.

A regiment quartered alta certain town
in Scotland had among them an expert
gymnast, who taught his brother SUBJ
alterns how TO walk across the barrack-
room on their hands. While engaged
one evening the door opened, and the
Colonel, stern disciplinarian, entered
the room, looked attentiyely at the in
verified company, shook his head gravely,
and departed without uttering word.
An order to be on parade next morning
was the least punishment expected for
this breach Of discipline. Some days
passed, however, and, no notice being
taken, it was thought an apology and ex-
PLANTATION should be offered by the prime
instigator Of these unsoldierly move
ments. A reference being made to the
memorable night, the Colonel amazed
the fintended-apologist by exc1aiming
- Hush, Sergeant, [ would not have any

DON'T Poison Your System

With such hurtful drugs as quinine, calomel,
or blue pills, but take instead that safe, p1ompt
and agreeable substitute, Hostetter's Stomach
Bitters, which, whether it is used to remedy or
prevent malaria1 fevers, overcome general de-
bility, Or to correct torpidiry of the liver and
bowels, will in every case be found fully ade-
quate to the wants of the sick and feeble. 1t
entirely removes dyspeptic symptoms, and, by
stimulating the flow of gastric juice, facilitates
into blood, whereby the system is efficiently
nourished and regains its lost vigor. This
great vegetable restorative has received the
Endorsement of men of science, the press has
repeatedly borne voluntary testimony tC its
excellence, and the public has long since
given it the preference to every medicine of its
kind.
