The Rapidly Of Thought.

To refute the notion that all the
events of q life time can pass through
the mind of q drowning person or one
threatened with death, experiments have
been made to test the heetness Of
thought, and with the following results:
In all the experiments the time re.
quired for a single thought WA never
less than q fortieth of q second. In
other words, the mind can perform moi
more than 2,40O simple acts q minute
1900 a minute being the rate TO! persons
of middle life. = = Admit that
the speed of mental action il abnormally
rapid at such times, say $500 simple
cogitations aminute. or 5O,OO0 an hour.
If q man were an hour in drowning, In
stead of q few minutes, and all the time
be given to q mental review of his life,
he would, If forty years old, have time
to give ten thoughts of the simplest
character to each day that he had lived
In other words, memory would have
time to review the experiences of al
most the hundredth part Of n second
out of each days waking thousands.

A Terrier Terrified by : Monkey.

Mr.. g. Crehore, of Boston, sends us
an amusing incident, a2ropos Of the SUBJ
ject of fetichism in animals, referred to
BY Mr.. Romanes recently in Nature. A
brava,zaetiye. intelligent terrier. belong
ing to 9 lady friend, one day discovcred
n monkey belonging to an itinerant
organ-grinder, seated upon a bank within
the grounds, and ut once made a dash
for him. The monkey, who was attired
in jacket and hat, awaited the onset
with such undisturbed tranquility that
the dog halted within a foot of him to
reconnoitre. Both animals took a long,
steady stare at each other, but the dog
evidently was recovering from his sur
Prise and about to make q spring for the
intruder. At this critical i~uncture the
monkey, who had remained perfectly
quiet hitherto, raised his paw and gSace-
fully salated by lifting his hat. The
effect was magical; the dogs head and
tail dropped and he sneaked off and
entered the house, refusing to leave it
till he was satisfied that his polite but
mysterious guest had departed. His
whole demeailor showed plainly that he
felt the monkey wal something "uncan-
ny" and not to be medded ~with.sFrom

bitter almonds.
BIsCUIT.-Put to one quart of fouI
two teaspo0nfuls of baking powder. Sift
the two together. Rub to the -four one
tablespoonful OF butter, half teaspoon

warm soapsuds, use two waters, and soak
the iannels in hot water for a few min

your pan with boiling water, put in az
many small mufin-rings. as the pan will
hold, (laying them fat salt the water
as above, and put an egg in each, which
makes them even and round.
To Boil A LEG OF LAMB.-Wash and
trim the leg nicely, have ready water
that has boiled and been skimmed-soft
water is the best; put in the leg when
the water is nearly or quite boiling hot
remove the scum as fast as it rises; when
it has boiled five minutes throw in the
pot sufficient salt to give the water a
saline taste, and boil the water briskly
until the scum is all removed, then sim
mer until tender; the water should be
kept to nearly boiling heat, and the pot
tightly covered all the time. Ii the
amount of water decreases, fill the pot
with hot water; serve with nice drawn
butter, favored with celery, parsley
lemon juice, or mint if preferred.

In 1877 the total arrivals at New
York were $1,000. Thus it will be
seen the present indications are for con-
siderable increase this year over last. In
giving the figures Of immigration we
have not taken the total arrivals, only
immigrants proper-not vel including
the alien arrivals.
From 1860 to 1871 inclusive, about
5000, 900 of immigrants arrived in the
United States. During that period the
commissioners of emigration for the
state of New York made thorough ex-
animation a. to the money value of this
vast immigration, and though much al
lowance had to made for the natural
fears of strangers in a strange land to di-
vulge their personal affairs, it was gener
ally conceded that the average personal
property (nearly all gold) was w $3.50
pei. capita. Thus the capital, in hard
cash, brought 70 the United States by
these u~nassuming people amounted for
that decade to not less than $3.50, 000, 900
n'gold.
We give the total arrivals for the past

Returning Immigration.

From the Milwaukee Evening Wisconsin.
We have a theory, based upon public
sentiment in Europe, that, if the Berlin
congress results in a general and lasting
peace, there must follow, in obedi-
ence to the laws of economy aad obedi-
ence to popular will, a very large and
general disarmament in Europe-not to
the extent that has been attempted in
the United States; but large numbers Of
men now in the regular armies or mobil-
lied will be discharged. At the present
moment there are about 3,000,O 900 of
men under arms in Europe. If peace re-
suits from 4 congress, at least one-third,
and ultimately one-half of this vast
number of men will return to the pur-
suits of peace. As all trades and bust
ness of Europe are o%verdone, this great
addition of producers will so glut the
labor market as to induce q renewal of
the old tide of emigration to this coun-
try, which, notwithstanding what we
here cali hard times, is still and will long
remain the promised land-the land flow
ing with milk and honey.
Our country is a nation of immigrants
some years in the past the additions
to our population by immigration were
almost as great as the additions by
births. Last year the number of immi-
grants was the smallest since 1868.
| Whatever may be said OF the d~esirability
| of the introduction Of European laborers
at this period Of depression in all produc-
tive industries, We find by reference to
the immigration tables that the years
of greatest foreign immigration have
been the years Of greatest prosperity,
and that the zero of commercial disaster
was identical with the zero of immigra-
ton. Thus, Immediately following the
great disasters of 1873, foreign immigra-
ton fell Off one-half-continuing to de-
cline from a maximum of nearly 450, 600
per annum to $780, 0O in 1877. S5Et
The present indications are that the
number for this year will considerably
exceed that of last, and that next year
something like the old food will have set
towards our shores. We have no re-
ports for the current year except from
the port of New York, where about one
half of the total immigration to this
country arrives. For the first six
notwithstanding one week-the ar
rivals at New York have been as fol-

condition Of affairs he has found genet

ton, in paid newspapers, isolated cases
Of instructlng. primary meetings, as an
indication Of the personal preference OF
the county for Churchill. By thus fore
stalling public opinion, and by such mis-
cradle misrepresentation, they hope to
force public opinion in favor Of Chur-
chilPs, and against Woodrufl's claims
ChurchilPs papers, in all sections of the
State are Selling upon the instruction OF
one primary meeting in county to de-
clare such county for Churchill. Now,
such an act on the part OF newspaper
or an individual, under any eireumstan,
ces, is simply supremely mean, and mex,
pressibly contemplate. So far as we
ourselves are concerned we intend to
do all we can for "Billy" Woodruff, in
advocating his claims to the position to
which he aspires. He is our man,

is, that if Churchilie foes beat our good

inst. Mrs. MARY MILLER, wife OF Mr.. An
drew Scrimsher, aged % years.
| The unmercitnl hand of death is not dis
eriminatiyc in its selections. 1t presses alike
the head of old and young. 1t nestes amid
the silken curls of prattling childhood. and
the frosty locks of whitening age. To-day,
we walk, side by side with those we love: TO-
morrow the uncharitable clods that fall above
their breasts, send throbbing pain across the
Threshold Of our hearts. To day it is our
painful duty to chronicle the death of one of
our young women--a wife and mother. Have
you never watched the opening flower. and
with kindly hand watered it when nature re-
fused it drink, and shielded its expanding pe
tails, when the unkindly frosts would blast
It's HE? Did you not coax its growth and
strengthen its strength? Just when its beau-
tlfu leaves send out their lovely fragrance,
and their sweet aroma has flooded your life
with happiness, does not a chilling and I'M
timely frost fling its whitening breath across
your way robbng you Of your choice howcr?
To-day, the idol-rose of one lone heart has
been nipped by the cruel frosts of death.
His ergarden has been robbed of its
choicest treasure. Instead of the floral odor,
that in the past flooded the aisles of his being,
there now alone come the anguish -wailngs
of the inodorous winds of woe. The earnest
and hearty sympathy of all our people is
with Andy in his terrible bereavement. MAY
the God of the motherless be with the little
one of only Is months which is left behind.
Mary's last words were, What difference
does minute make?7 On the wings of these
last uttcrances her spirit took its eternal
flight. a little friend of the deceased has
handed us the following:
WHAT DIFFERENCE DORIS MINUTE MAKR?'
= What difference docs minute make ?

Her loving friends did weep.
What difference did minnie make?

Her spirit 70 receive.
She happier now than on this earth,
only her body is under the sod;

he died, soon after o'clock. Four DAYS
ago one side of his body was paraly zed
and last night the other side was simil-

ARKADELpuIA, June 7th, 1878.
We hope Bro. Clark will be done with
" suggestions" and call a convention, or
at least a meeting of the Committee, and
settle the time and place. 1t seems to
us Little Rock is the proper and most
convenient place for the assembling Of
the convention.
