IN UNION STRENGTHEN KNOWLEDGE POWER


-Mr. H. N. F. Lewis, the we'll
known publisher Of the Western
Rural, having been ousted from his
position in that office by means
which seem to be decidedly unfair,
has commenced the publication of a
new paper, called Lewis Rural,"
OF which we are in receipt of the
first number. 1t is an eight column
to the page folio, we'll printed and
filled with excellent articles. The
articles headed "What Farmers
Want, michigan Grange" and
the "Value of HEALTH" which we
reprint on the fifth page, are select.
ed from it and are good samples of
its contributed and selected articles.
We should like to see MIR. Lewis
succeed in his new enterprise and'
can truthfully recommend his new
paper to our readers. His terms
are $1.5o per year in advance, and
his address H. n. F. Lewis, III
Madison St., Chicago, Illinois.
New Orleans is in commotion.
Mr.. Nichols, the democratic candi-
date who claims to have been elect.
ed governor, has out an armed force
to sustain him and they have Install
ed the democrats who claim to be
elected Judges of the Supreme
Court. Mr.. Packard, the republi-
can who claims to be elected gov
ornor, is also supported by an arm
ed force and a collision is imminent.
Francis P. McNamee, Esq, of
St. Paul, died on Monday last, after
a brief illness. He was one of the
local editors of the Dispatch, having
filled that position from the time
that paper started. His disease
was pneumonia. He left a wife and
five children. -. ~, i 5
1t is reported that a duel has
been fought between Mi. Bennett,
of the New York Herald, and a
brother of Miss May, to whom Mr..
Bennett had been engaged to be
married. -. - ',>'~'.

City Council on Monday afternoon, for
the purpose of considering the matter
Of contributing relief to sufferers from

counties Of this State. His honor,

by request, Hon. Judge Wilder stat
ID briefly the object Of the meeting, and
added that it is not possible for any
one to fully appreciate the utter desti-
tuion which the people of those regions
re suffering, unless they go amongst
The I'M and see for themselves. What is
published or told concerning the matter
u Inadequate to convey the truth. 1t
IS essential that they shall have help
and that at once, and it has been
,hd dught best to make general effort in
Red Wing under the auspices Of the
! City Council, in order that every citizen
/ may be reached and solicited to con-
/. rbute. The several religious denomi-
lions have done something already,
| b,t their efforts are confined to those of

! Jet before them for consideration, but
hA deferred action in expectation Of
tHF general effort, with which they
" pld heartily cooperate. -.

Mr.. Brooks did not think it best tc

The Ordnance Select Committee

The Ordinance Select Committee of England recently made an ex- pertinent in firing mountain howitzer strapped on to the back of a mule. The mule, the loaded gun, the committee, and several |" big wigs" attracted by the nov city of the experiment., went to the trial ground at Woolwich to witness the firing. The mule was backed up into position, so that the mazzle of the gun, point ing over his tail, was aimed at an earthen mound. The committee decided to fire it by means of a slow match, and it was prepared and lighted: Hitherto the mule had taken rather a sleepy inter- est in the proceedings; but some how the fizzing on his back caused him first toprick up his ears. then to lay then back. and finally to begin to turn round. The com mittee were thunder-struck, and skedaddled in all directions: the secretary threw himself flat on his face; there was a moment of agoDizing suspense-then bang; the shot ricochetting away in one direction, while the wretched mule turned a complete summer. sault in the other.

PUNCH, BROTHERS, PUNCH.

From those years OF our early inno-
cence, when hunch-backed Punch per-
formed such marvellous feats for our
childish amusement, we have all cher
ished peculiar affection for that word
"Punch," and in whatsoever connection
it is used it awakens WITHIN us different
memories and emotions.
Some of us experience a thrill of de-
light at the mere mention of hot whisky
punch, and others are overcome with
spirit of sadness at the dim recollection
OF punch ON the head, which at some
time in the shadowy past has flashed
across their career like fiery meteor
athwart the sky. 1t was not, perhaps,
until the Introduction OF the street-car
punch, with it's eternal ringing in our
ears, that we were sufficiently punched,
but it seems that the end is not yet.
Virginia, having completed her con-
tract as the Mother OF Presidents, has
assumed new role, and presents her
self before an astonished and admiring
world with her Bell-punch Liquor Law.
This law requires that each saloon shall
be provided with registering instru-
ment which shall faithfully record every
drink sold at the bar, and Senator Mo :
fat, from Rockingham County, being OF
an inventive disposition, constructed an
Ingenious machine tor the purpose.
1t is about the size of an ordinary cigar
box, is made of cast iron, and bears
upon it's front combination of dials,
registering from one to one million.
This dial faces the customer, who, IL he
be an honest patriot, with the good OF
the State Treasury at heart, will not
only drink early and often, but observe
that the bar-keeper diligently works the
bell punch and that the dial faithfully
records. The tax to be collected Ia 2L
cents on every drink denoted by the in.
strument, and one can see at q glance
what an immense source of revenue
such an arrangement must be to thu
Commonwealth.
No doubt such system will sutfe
materially from collusion between bar
keepers and customers, but it will prot
ably prove as remunerative as the OF
dinary license plans. IT it should wor
satisfactorily In the Old Dominion
will no doubt extend to other States
and it would be interesting to note it
operation in this city. A bell-punc
would play lively tune in attemptin
TO register the number of glasses
beer sold at any Of our hilltop resort

TIRNOVA.

A correspondent gives the following
amusing description Of Tirnova. the an
cient Capital OF Bulgaria; Naples, in
It's upper part, Amalti, Vlctri, are all
constructed on PLAIN, II compared with
the vertical precipice on which TlrnoVa
is perched. Its streets are 50 steep, 80
narrow, and 30 muddy hat no descrir-
ton can give an adequate iuea OF the
truth. Is there anotner town in the
world where, Tor instance, the following
adventure could have happened: An
Epglisn correspondent mad The ill-luck
to lose his footing on one OF the
main streets; ne fell and man
aged to scramble to his leet, but
not in the same street, nor in the next
one. but In the third street further do"
from the place wnere they had been

slipped down a lane, wnichseemed orig.
inaily planned for the use Of BulWel 4

raj beings endowed with wings, but not
for helpless two-tooted mortals! De-
spite all this, the thorough, staunc1
Bulgarian is proud OF his ancient clty,
and shakes his head incredudously
when you tell hlm tnat there are cities

step they venture to make in the
