Towards the END OF Au-
gust, and during Sep
TENDER, the ! leaves if
worth gathering (see
note below are picked
off; those, however,
that are near the eX-
tremities of the branch
es, and which are still
immature, being left.
During October these
tufts attain the greatest
iegree of maturity to
be hoped for, and they
should then be partial
.ly broken off, but left
hanging, as it were, by
the bark. This is done
that they may dry the
more speedily, and also
escape the damage
which, in case Of rain,
they would receive if
lying upon the ground.
When fully dry they
are picked off and
taken to the threshin9
floor.
This is the method
deemed best in Sicily;
but experience may
show labor to be too
dear to Justify it in
America. The quail

CRIMINAL ACCIDENTS.

Not long ago an account was given
of q fatal accident which occurred
during the performance Of variety
troupe. The feat was to shoot an
apple from the head of an actress. A
lady whose stage name was Franklin
did the shooting, but her aim was
had, and the ball pierced the forehead,
and the actress fell dead. Another
case is just reported. On the 9th
inst. at Rockport. Indiana. performer
in Whalin's Variety Combination of
Louisville attempted the same feat Of
shooting an apple from the head of a
woman. The aim miscarried and an
eight-year old boy named Wiegel. who
was playing outside of the canvass wa.
shot through the forehead and instant.
~ killed. The performer was ar
rested and no one appearing against
him be was released.
Such dangerous feats as these should
be strictly forbidden by law. Of
course they are accidents; there is no
intention to take life. But it is GRIM.
nal recklessness and carelessness and
the parties ought to be punished for
manslaughter. Some States have
already provided for such cases.

The famous duel in which forty or
more gentlemen were engaged in H.
%, is still remembered in Natchez.
Col James Bowie. the famous fighter
and inventor of the knife which hears
his name. used to spend a great deal of
his time in Naichez lie WAS challeng-
ed by gentleman for Alexandria La.
whose friends. to the number Of
twenty and more. accompanied him to
Natchez to see fair play. knowing that
Bowie was desperate man and had
his own friends about him. All parties
went upon the field. The combatanis
took their places in the rear. tar
enough not to endanger them with
their balls. Behold the battle array
thus: Twenty armed Louisianians
fifty yards behind their champion and
his seconds and surgeon. and Opposite
them far behind Bowie and his seconds
and surgeon. twenty armed NJ ssis>ipp-
ians. Behold the nights Of Natchez
with spectators. and a steamer
in the river rounded to. its deck black
with passengers, watching with deep
interest the scene. The plan to fight
was to exchange shots twice with
pistols, and 10 close with knives. Bowie
being armed with his OSn terrible
weapon. At the first fire both parties
escaped. At the second the Louisian-
ian was too quick and took advantage
of Bowie, who waited the word. At
this Bowieis second cried foul play,
and shot the LcuiSianian dead. The
second of the latter instantly killed
the slavor of his principal. Bowie
drove his knife into this man. The
surgeon now crossed blades. while
with loud battle cries came ON two
parties of friends. the light Of the
battle in their eyes. In a moment
the whole number were engaged in
fearful conflict. Dirks, pistols and
knives were used with fearful effect.
until one parry drove the other from
the field. I do not know how many
were killed and wounded in all. but
it was dreadful slaughter. Bowie
fought like a lion but fell covered
with wounds. For months he fingered
at the Mansion House before he fully
recovered.

Vandalism Avenged.


Curiosity lost our FIRST parents, and
curiosity has been the primary cause
Of an exceedingly unpleasant misad-
venture which has just befallen two
young men 1t Lille. Meeting with a
medical gentleman the other day with
whom they were acquainted. they
begged of him the loan Of the cabriolet
in which he was driving home from
his rounds in order to make q little
excursion into the country. The
doctor acceded to the request, and the
young men started. After an hour
or 30 of rapid driving the two hogan
to speculate upon the possible contents
of small valise which the owner of
the cabriolet had left in the vehicle.
and curiosity getting the better of
good breeding. one Of them opened it.
\ few surgical instruments. and what
they took for a remarkably fine
buliock's kidney. carefully enveloped
in several wrappers, met their eyes
A suggestion made by one If the pair
that they should appropriate the
dainty morseI. halt at the nearest
auberge and have it cooked for their
dinner, met with the approval of the
other. and was put into practice. The
kidney was eaten with the relish a
long drive gives, the doctors health
was drunk, and the horses head
turned homeward. On reaching
their medical friends residence they
confessed the breach Of good manners
OF which they had been guilty. "My
young friends" said the doctor gravely.
''you have unwittingly been guilty Of
something infinitely more serious than
a simple breach Of good manners.

rare tumor, weighing at least 500
grammes, which l extracted myself

A constitution is the organic law Of
the land. 1t declares the rights Of
citizens, prescribes that which is good
for the public veal and prohibits that
which is wrong. 1t proclaims the
general principles of government.
1t is the voice ofthe people and is at
the same time guide to and check
upon legislation. Some of the pro-
visions of our new constitution have
been held to be self-inforcing and
others not.
Section q of the constitution of
1875, in regard to the liability of bank
directors reads as follows:
"Section q. 1t shall be q crime,
the nature and punishment of which
shall be prescribed by law, for any
president, director, manager, cashier,
or other officer of any banking insti-
tuition. to assent to the reception of
deposits, or the creation of debts bv
such banking institution after he shall
have had knowledge of the fact that
it is insolvent, or in failing circum-
stances; and any such officer, agent,
or manager, shall be Individually re-
sponsible for such deposits SO received.
and all such debts so created with his
assent"
In the case of Louis Fusz ct al ".
Henry j. Spaunhorst ct al from the
St. Louis Court of Appeals, our Su-
preme Court has decided that the
above provision has no force and ef-
feet until an act is passed by the leg
islature providing a punishment for
its violation. That both the first and
second clauses of that section we're in
tended to 60 into operation at the
same time.
So then no such officer, agent, or
manager mentioned therein shall be re-
sponsible individually until the General
Assembly shall pass some appropriate
act enforcing that provision. This
will be done at the next session with
out dout.

POOR CUBA.

The Republican seems to think that
the instruction lacks good deal of
being crushed. 1t says editorially /:
ut was only few weeks ago that an
official proclamation from Havana
notified the world that the troubles on
the island had subsided. and that the
insurgents were coming in from every
quarter anxious to lay down their
arms and accept the proposed terms Of
peace. Since that declaration, which
seemed to have originated from those
fully authorized to send it forth, bulle-
tins have followed almost daily giving
con6rmatory accounts of the surrend-
er of rebellious leaders and the graft
fication expressed at receiving such
favorable terms Of amnesty. 1t ap-
pears, however. that the Spanish
Government does not take this peace
full view of the situation. Martinez
Campos has received orders from his
government to remain in Cuba and
continue the campaign, which, IN the
opinion of the rulers at Madrid, is in
nowise near the end. An offer of five
million pounds and ten thousand fresh
recruits has been made, with which to
continue the cruel prosecutions. and
this has doubtless been supplemented
with assurances that men and money
shall at no time be wanting to prose
cute the war. Judging from this the
spirit of rebellion cannot have been
entirely smothered in Cuba. Resolute
men with determined leaders are vet
numerous in the mountains. and before
they are subjects of little Alfonso,
Spain will probably be compelled to
expend much blood and treasures.
