formidable one has been discovered in San

have been made. The original Tuxtepee

any alliance with them. The Courier De

Maple Sugar Statistics.

A few figures about the maple sugar
business are suggested by the fact that
this season ~thirty-hve tons Of the sugar
have been shipped to market from Brat
tleboro, Vt. The best estimate puts the
yield of q tree at twelve to twenty-four,
say eighteen, gallons a season, and OF
sugar not over four pounds. That is,
eighteen quarts of sap make q pound;
consequently there were boiled, about
Brattleboro, to make 70, 200 pounds of
sugar, 1,260, 900 quarts of sap, which
were the yield of 1850 trees. Suppos-
ing that, the country through, there are
100 places where as much sugar is made
rs about Brattleboro, then a total OF 81
500, 900 gallons Of sap is drawn every
spring. No doubt this is far less
than the actual amount, yet it would
weigh about 252, 000, 900 pounds or 1885,
600 tons, and would make n far greater
liquid mass than some of the reservoirs
that have, in bursting, caused such dis
aster in the past few years. \ pound of
wood burned raises twcnty-sevcn to
thirty-six pounds of water from thirty
two degrees to tile boiling point. AS
summing that Il pound Of ordinary forest
gathering would boil the water ont of
thirty-six pounds of sap, it appears that
it would take 1000, 900 pounds $500
tons) OF wood to make a seasons sugar;
and also that the irewood burned just
about equals in weight the sugar pro
duced. Trees have to be tapped; fuel
has to be gathered, if not prepared; and
thirty-fve pounds of water have to be
boiled away before the sugar is reached;
moreover several weeks ere spent at the
work. What wonder that foreign sub
stances sometimes creep into the pans.-

The boy that went to the mill on horseback,
carrying the grist in one end of the bag and
a stone in the other, when reproved by the
miller, and told to divide the grist, replied that
his father and grandfather had carried it that
way, and he, being no better than they, should
continue to do as they did. Similar, or equally
as absurd, reasons are accounted as sufficient
by some to warrant them in Unfortunately
condemning DR.. Picrce's Family Medicines,
even though there is overwhelming proof that
they possess the merit claimed for them. For
many years the Golden Medical Discovery has
been recognized as the leading liver and blood

4 Curious STERN OF Lightning.

At a recent meeting of the French
Academy of Sciences, a paper, giving the
following curious description OF a storm
observed by NJ. Edward Blanc, on March
q, at Vcnce, in the Var, was read:
"'Thc weather had been variable during
the day; at seven A. NJ. q hail-storm, &C.
companied with thunder, had swept over
the whole northern seaboard Of the
Mediterranean from west to cast; Trejus,
Antilles, Cannes, Nice and Monaco had
been visited, but the center of the tor
nado was several leagues away OH the
sea, where tho clouds had a characteristic
copper tut. Vcnce had been but slightly
touched, had had some intermittent rain
mingled with hailstones, and occasional
squalls. During the rest of the day the
sun shonc ont, and at intervals a big
black cloud would travel from west to
east, letting fall a shower of rain lasting
but a few minutes. The sun was warm,
and set in q cloudlcss horizon. About
midnight, NJ. Blanc was surprised to see
numerous flashes of lightning to the
east, the sky overhead being clear.
There was no thunder, although tho
phenomenon could hot be at any great
distance. NJ. Blanc proceeded to a spot
where nothing could obstruct the OBJ
server, and saw the whole eastern horizon
covered by a layer of black clouds, owe
which a number of light aad heccy cirri
were skimming in various directions; the
general appearance was that of a dense
massin ebulition, Oh the surface of which
light scorie were dancing about. To
the northeast of Vence, and at a distance
of eighteen kilometres or thereabouts, a
large black cloud seemed to be exceeding
ly disturbed; it was constantly rising and
falling, and above it ireba!ls resembling
rockets issuing from a bouquet of fire
works seemed to start from an invisible
center, flew about in every direction,
and after passing over o space of from
six to eight degrees, would burst silently,
leaving a dazzling train behind. The
apparent diameter of these balls was
about. one degree; they moved slowly,
and the phenomenon was repeated three
or four times in two minutes. From
time to time the cloud was torn by a
flash OF lightning, accompanied by n
rumbling sound"

Il ccutral figure in fashionable New York
society. She was not twenty years old,

which she was made president. She re-
c2ivel the ate, ton OF titled foreigners,
and was the envied of her set.
But one morning last winter the intel

married, had been married a year, and to
81 worthless young fellow scarcely older
than hersslf-poor, but already q drunk
ard and gambler. The marriage cere-
mony was performed at the mayors
office, the infatuated girl having been
made to believe that this was Only q civil
contract, and did not constitute a real
marriage, and that she could disavow it
at the end of a year, during which time
it was to be kept a profound secret.

finally claimed her, treating her parents
with the most impertinent r%udeness, and,
to her horror, the unhappy girl found
herself tied for life to- person without
ordinary decency or manhood.
Probably a divorce would have been
obtained had it not been for the interior
Ell 70 of the relatives of the young man
(his family is a respectable one), who
finally prevailed upon the parents OF the
girl to extend q sort OF sanction to the
marriage, which they did, by issuing in
vitations to q grand party, to which 800
guests were invited, of which fifty only
were present. A house was bought and
furnished by the father of the bride, and
the Young couple went to housekeeping.
The other day the mother called, found
tAat her daughter had been struck and
beaten, and was summary ordered down
stairs and out Of the house by the scape-
grace s~on-in-law, who, mad with drink
and rage, himself put her out, and told
her never to darken his doors again.
The next day he was cowlided in the
street by al indignant nephew of his
mother-in-law and cousin of his wife.

A Model DirlOmatist,

Prince Nicholas, of Montenegro, who
las been instrumental in creating the
present Oriental crisis, is described by q
friendly hand as a model diplomatist.
Polite and clever, he knows how to make
himself agreeable to all parties, in order
20 secure for himself the greatest advan-
tage. At the very moment when, with
regard to Turkey, he represents himself
as its "well-meaning friend, who could
readily come to an understanding if his
stubborn subjects did not prevent him,
he also knows how to clevcrly persuade
the European courts that he will follow
their counsels; and thus the circumstance
h~appens'that many q great power i'm
agines that it directs petty Montenegro;
While without any question it is obliged
10 give way to the principally and &C
cede to it's demands.
