The Foe of Pain.

The friend of suffering humanity-the
enemy Of disease, and the salration of
the patient brute, is MEXICAN Nus
TANG LINIMENT. There is no sore it
will not heal, no ache or pain it will
not Danish. For accidents in the fam
lily, such as burns, scalds, sprains, cuts,
etc., it has no rival. 1t has saved
more human lives, and restored more
horses, oxen and other cattle, to useful
ness and profit, than all other liniments
put together. may27-d3tawaw6m

medans are not only allowed to wage
war with their enemies, but are even
commanded by the Koran to do so. In
the 47th chapter, entitled "Moham-
med," it is said, 80 true believersl if
you assist God by fighting for his relig-
ion, he will assist you against your enc
miles," In the 18th chapter, entitled
''The Cow" it is also said, "War is
enjoined to you against those who fight
against you--Fight for the religion
of God" And the chapter entitled
''The Spoils," go, Prophet, stir up the
faithful to war" etc: Thus, the Ko-
ran knows nothing Of protocols, but en-
joins Moslems to wage war and fight
against their enemies; hence they are
justified by the precepts of their religion
in displaying the banner of the Cali
phate, and in stirring up the nation to
war

They were paupers, and had fed and
fattened upon the riches Of Rhode Is
land for 10! many months, when the
heart of the Overseer of the Poor was
gladdened by their application for
passage to New York. Determined not
to be sold, he went with them, paid
their way and bought their meals, to
learn in the great metropolis that he
must pay expressage on their bag
gage, subsequently valued by experts
at 81, 500. Not cent of money, but
enough wearing apparel to cloth half
of Rhode Island.

Travellers from that portion of Africa
known on the atlas of our scool-days as
the "unexplored regions'' report it as
one of the most populous and fertile in
the world. But it is the home of blood
thirsty savages, perpetually at war, and
destroying hundreds of thousands of
lives annually. Now if these travellers
tell the truth about the loss of life, it is
manifest that the fertility applies to
the population and not the soil.

A Stage Robbers Love.Letter.

About three weeks ago, says the Gal
weston News, the Gillespie Mounted Ri
fles captured one Donaho and three
others who had robbed mail stage be-
tween Austin and fredericksburg. On
the person of Donaho was found an un-
finished letter, which stamps him as
one OF the romantic and sentimental
robbers weread of in dime novels. 1t
is sad to think the young man will have
to serve five or. ten years in the peni-
ter tiary before he can lay his fortune
at the teet of gentle Anna Parsons and
claim her hand: .....

The Peculiarities of Memory.

The loss Of memery which generally
follows upon stunning is q well known
phenomenon; but there are not want
ing instances OF an abnormal recollec-
.tion being evoked by extraordinary cir
1cumstances. Dr.. Abercrombie relates
the case of man brought into St.
Thomas's Hospital in state of stupor
from an injury to the head. When
partially recovered he spoke Welsh, a
language which, before the accident,
he had entirely forgotten from long
.desuetude; but when he had quite re-
covered, he again completely forgot his
Welsh, and got back his knowledge of
English. Another case is even more
remarkable. Aboy at the age CT four
suffered fracture of the skull, and was
trepanned while in a state of complete
stupor. After his recover he retained
no recollection either OF the. accident
or the operation; but at the age OF
fifteen, during the delirium of q fever,
he gave ' an account of the operation,
and the persons who were present at
it, with q correct description of their
dress, and other minute particulars. p"

A Lover or Roast Pig.

Jerry Foster was an exceedingly par
simonious man, while he was a most
tremendous feeder. He was native of
New Jersey, living some 80 miles east
of Philadelphia, and attended market in
that city. In person he was great,
lanky built fellow, and where all the
provisions he devoured at one sitting
went to it would require a medical
board to determine. Well, one day
Jerry started with his wagon to the city.
His load consisted of butter, eggs, po-
tatoes and few infant swine, hand
somely dressed for the table. ALL of
his marketing was disposed of early in
the morning but one pig, and then the
farmer drove round to q small tavern
on Second Street, where he proposed
stopping for dinner, the price thereof,
in those cheap times, being 25 cents.
He sold the roaster to Mr.. Randolph,
the tavern-keeper, for Is cents. About
O'Clock Jerry appeared for. his meal.
There happened that day to be no guest
at the table but him.. The dinner was
brought in. The roaster sold Randolph
in the morning, all crisp and brown,
stood before his former owner. just as
the trio were proceeding to work Mr..
and Mrs. r. were suddenly called away
to care for one of the children taken i'll.
The landlord, on departing, told Jerry
to 90 ahead and eat his dinner. Jerry
"waded in" Piece after piece of the
porker was devoured with cranberries,
potatoes, turnips and bread and butter,
ad libitum. In probably three-quar-
ters of an hour Mr.. and Mrs. r. re-
turned. There was the table, there was
Jerry, but where were the provisions -
where, especially, the pig? 1.-The Jer'
seyman was leaning back in'his chair
complacently picking his teeth. The
pair surveyed him with an expression
of indignant astonishnent. At length
Randolph spoke: ss' Why-well, strang.
er, should say you were unusually
fond of roast pig.,' /" Yes, yes, | may
say am; and real fat, good sized
one makes me, with trimmin's, Just
a fair meal" said Jerry, heaying 8
sigh. Randolph was out 80 cents or
the pig alone, and may be as muof
more on the other provisions consumed
by the Jerseyman, but you may be st.i'
