Tuesday evening a train ran into and

do not average one a year.

Two vessels loading with grain and
one with piling are at our wharves.
The extra meetings Of the M. E..
Church which have been going on at the
Battery, are meeting with great success.
The meeting which was held last even
ing in the Court House, to devise means
of aiding the yellow fever sufferers was
poorly attended and failed to take any
action; not for want of sympathy but ow-
ing TO the fact that our churches and
secret orders have contributed largely,
whilst subscriptions have been taken up
throughout the city at large. t

Gently Jack Braslan aad man named
Blair, who have for some time been in
partnership in their business of mining
and prospecting, met in the bar room OF
Pollock's boarding house and commen-

the influence of liquor Braslan more SO
then Blair. After quarrellng for some
time, Braslan exclaimed that he was
"Chief," which claim Blair disputed
saying that he was willing to fight at
any distance from handkerchief length
to forty PAGES. This challenge Braslan
whose pistol and belt were lying on tie
floor short distance from him-accepted
asking for time to "leel himself" which
he proceeded to do by buckling on his
belt. The two men went out in the
street, appearing more pleasantly dis.
towards one another than they had been
OF any other time during the day. Plac-
ing themselves less than eight feet apart,
at signal from one they both fired eiiec-
lively, Blair being struck in the shoulder,
and Braslan in the side. ,'..,'','..-
After that they both fred rapidly, until

of the twelve rapidly fired shots cleared

We see that five per cent. Of the class are
granted beneficiary privileges.
We also see in the catalogues issued that
students who desire il will be educated by the
graded system adopted at Harvard, Massachu-
setts.
Ono is not surprised to read, after learning
these remarkable advantages offered by this
Faculty, that ninety-five students have been
graduated by il in the last year.
The class list as published shows students
from almost every State; the best evidence Of
the fact that the public throughout this country
is rapidly obtaining and apprecisting the valu-
able information here given to our readers.
1t seems only natural that so many students
from the Northern States should seek in winter
the mild and temperate climate Of Kentucky;
for thus they escape their harsh winter weather,
and return home in time for the cool Northern
summer.
Louisville, the geographical center Of this
country, bids fair to be one of its greatest
medical centers.
While newspapers seldom furnish the in
formation which we have herein given, we are
satisfied that our readers will value these
interesting and profitable facts. and viii agree

Whore EHer1hOty TattOos.

At the mention of tattooing, the Eng
lish reader will be disposed to lower the
Burman in his estimation to the level of
the Red Indian or South Sea Islander,
or other wild offshoot of humanity. Yet,
it is no mark of any such want of Gull
ture. From the educated native Judge
who sits on the bench to administer the
law of England, who speaks and writes
the English language, drives in his
barouche, and attends the social gather.
ings of English ladies and gentlemen,
to the humblest laborer in the field,
every man of the population is tattooed.
not at pleasure and within the limits he
himself may draw, but by rigid custom
which devoees to the tattooer's art the
body of every man from the waist to be-
low the knees. Within this area every
Burman is branded with close tapestry
of ions,.. grifins, and other fabulous
monsters, in deep blue pigment, forced
under the skin by a painful process.
Red tattooing is confined to the upper
part of the body. This necessary deco
ration is begun at an early age, and the
prescribed surface is only gradually
covered, but the severity of the treat
ment in the case of very young boys is
the cause of no little illness, and some
times even of death. 1 have myself met
only one Burman who was not thus
decorated, and he was kind of privil-
eyed mountebank to whom the license
of clown was allowed, and who was
the good-natured butt of his companions.
The tattooer is proud to execute his
most artistic designs (Which he will dis
play ON scroll like a tailor's patterns)
on the arms of English officers, and
among those who have served in Bur-
nah the samples of this art are among
the commonest relics shown to admiring
friends at home. Whatever may have
been the origin Of this strange custom,
it is considered an essential mark of
manliness, and the Burmese youth who
shrank from the ordeal would be regard
ed and treated as ''milksop;" and, how
ever unnatural the custom may be, il
undoubtedly has the effect of attaching
wholesome dignity to hardship, and
the fearless endurance of physical pain,
to which may be partly due the remark
able freedom from effeminacy which is q
popular characteristic of the Burmese.

NnlestOnes on the Road to Health.

The recovery Of digestion and the resump-
ton of activity by the liver, bowels and kid
neys are milestones which mark our progress
on the road to health. They speedily become
preceptible when Hostetter's Stomach Bitters
is used by the invalid. Nothing 80 surely and
expeditiously consumes the distance to the
desired goal. As no bodily function can suffer
interruption without impairirg the general
health of the system, so the system can never
acquire perfect vigor, health's synonym, until
that function be actively resumed. Take, for
instance. digestion, suspension Of which is
invariably rectifed by the Bitters. II the or
gans upon which It devolves grow weak, bill
iousness, constipation, headache, poverty OF
the blood, and a hundred other symptoms
supervene, which indicate unmistakably the
baneful general influence of dyspepsia. The
disappearance of all these symptoms through
the use of the Bitters shows with what thor
oughness it removes their cause.
