In relation to govt, clever and
amusing writer says GA man goes to
bed happy, and is awakened, after few
hours sleep, usually between l and 4
o'clock in the morning, with pain in the
ball of the great toe, which increases
with sense of burning and throbbing,
and he finds next morning that his toe
is swollen, with a deep red shining skin.
Moreover, it is SO exquisitely tender
that during the height of the attack he
cannot bear the weight of the bed
clothes, or the shaking of the bed by
footsteps in the room. There are Sc
ries of such attacks. Then the swelling
abates.. In few days the skin itches
and peels off, and there is in the joint
only some little remaining tenderness.
That is the form of brisk first attack
in man otherwise healthy. Gout has
partiality for gnawing at mans great
toe" AS for the pain, "Screw your
joint, said Frenchman, Sin wise till
you can no longer bear the pressure
that is rheumatism; then give the wise
another that issgout." Gout, hay-
ing once seized on its chosen outwork,
has tendency to fight it's way upward,
first storming the ankles, then making
an ugly rush upon the knee, then
taking possession of the hands and ell
bows, and sometimes striking to the
stomach, when it generally proves fatal.

ST.. LOUIS has just had night pro-

STATIONS. It was browning incident Of
fair week, and was intended to attract
multitudes from the country, which it
did. The expense was borne by hotel
keepers and others likely to be pc
cuniarily benefited by the influx of visit
ors. The procession was gorgeous and
interesting. Seventeen allegorical
tableaux were shown, each on big plat
form wagon drawn by six horses. Such
subjects as the glacial period, the sun
god, home of the demons, Flora's bower,
and Hades we're illustrated. The
streets were calcium-lighted, and many
buildings we're Illuminated. A public

them. The Anna Jane, of Liverpool
bound for Canada, with 450 emigrants
and crew of forty-five, was driven on
shore on Barra island, one of the
Hebrides, on Sept. %, 1853, and 1913
persons persisted The Pomona, an
other emigrant ship from the same port
was suffered, through an error in her
reckoning, to run on the Wexford coast
during the night of April %, 1859, the
result being the loss of 1856 lives. In
1854 the Tayleur, another Liverpool
emigrant ship, ran on to Lambay island,
near Howth, on Jan. 81, when 300 lives
were lost, and similar fate overlook

coast of Barnegat, on April Is, not a

In the terrible gale of April 30, 1850,
the Royal Adelaide steam packet, from
Cork to London, went on to the Tongue
Sands, near Margate, and of the 26O
persons forming her passengers and
| crew not one survived to give the de-
tails of her fate. Among the ships lost
during the storm of Feb. %, 1849, was
the German emigrant bark Floridian,
which was driven on the Long Sands
and went to pieces, TIA people perish
ing, and four being rescued by a rev.
enue-cutter.

GEN. SHERMAN, talking the other day
about speech he made in the Spotted
Tail council at the North Platte, said to
reporter: "When / was in Paris I met
Stanley in company with a number of
gentlemen. He was describing his
route in search of Livingstone, when I
placed the map of Africa before him,
and asked him to point out his route.
Commencing at Senegambia, he traced
the route, pointing out the location of
the different tribes. He came to a GER
tain tribe who were warlike, and, calling
them together, made threatening
speech. That Speech said Stanley to
me, was the very speech, in the precise
words, except substitution of names,
which you made at North Platte to Tur-
key Leg, Cut Nose and Spotted Tail. I
was there, General, and never forgot the
speech I was surprised enough at the
statement, not imagining for an instant
that African Stanley was the same
Stanley who accompanied us as CORE
spondent on the Indian Peace Commits
sion of 1867-'68." "a'

OVER 500 blast furnaces and 5000
pudding, furnaces are now lying idle in
England, and the list is daily increa.s-
ing The cause of this is chiefly the de-
cline in railroad building and the devel-
opment Of the rival iron industry in
America Half decade ago England
was selling the United States 100000
tons of iron and steel annually; now she
ships this way less than 100000 tons
per year. The home market of our
country is supplied by home mines,
which last year produced 2,314,5S5 tons
of pig iron, or three times the amount
produced fifteen years ago, at which
time none of the ore was rolled. in this
country, but was treated abroad. At
the present time the greater part of our
entire product is here prepared for use.

They produce some phenomenal
cSiminals in the Southwest. A fellow
was hung at Giddings, Tex, the other
day, who confessed to the charge of
killing thirty-two men. Another fend in
human shape has just been sentenced at
Fort Smith, Ark, to be hanged on the
Goth of December next. His name is
John Postoak, and he is half-breed
Creek Indian. His victims were John
Ingley, white man, and his wife. In
October, 1877, Postoak became incensed
at Ingley for his refusing to give him
tobacco. He went off, borrowed a re-
volver, and came back to Ingley's house,
called Ingley out to the door, and shot
him down. He then placed his revolver
to Mrs. Ingley's breast and shot her,
killing both instantly. The Ingleys had
one child, only 20 months old, who was
left alone with the dead bodies of his
parents, and, the house being some dis
lance off the road, the murder was not
discovered until eleven days after it was
perpetrated. The child was then on the
verge of the grave from starvation, and
the dogs had almost completely de-
voured the woman, and had also eaten
the flesh from the face of Ingley. Post
oak received his sentence with the ut
most indifference. q ijiH

THE CONTINENTAL LIFE INsURAN cE CON-
PANY.-The Continental Life Insurance Com
pany of Hartford has been und er investigation
the past week by the Insurance Commission of
the Connecticut Legislature on the charges of
Encouragement and possible insolvency pre-
sented by the special insurance commission.
The company has thus far consumed all the
time in refuting the charges, and has made a
very good showing, although it was evident
that there were some peculiar transactions.
The officers place the blame of THAR troubles
mainly upon j. c. Tracy, formerly president
of the Farmers and Mechanics Bank, who is
now in state prison for perjury and embezzle-
ment of bank funds. In a single instance the
company lost 100000 through Tracy who
managed their finances, as chairman of the
finance committee In this case he gave them
fraudulent certificate of deposit, subsequent
~ destroyed it, and the company has never
been able to recover anything from the bank.
The fact of the loss has been concealed until
this time, because the company feared the
effect on its business that would result from
public knowledge of it. The investigation will
be resumed next week. when the special COM
mission will appear with testimony to prove
that the charges that they have made are true
