THE BLACK PEST IN RUSsIA-HOW
1T ORIGINATED.-Ap private letter re-
ceived in New York, dated st. Peters
burg, Jan. 18th, gives fearful picture
OF the disease prevailing at that time in
the southern provinces of Russia. The
victims, according to this letter, when
taken live only about two hours, and
turn as black all over as negro. The
corpses are burned, and SO are the hous-
es in which the people die. Whole
towns have been laid waste within few
days. The government has placed a
Gordon of soldiers around the infected
provinces, so that the people cannot get
out and spread the disease. Any who
attempt to leave and break through the
Gordon are shot dead on the spot. The
people are beginning to feel uneasy all
over the empire. The "black pest" as
it is called, is much worse than the yell
low fever was in the South last summer.
1t was brought by Tartar soldier q
month ago, who, on leaving the Turkish
territory, pulled eff from a dead Turk
ON the battlefield handsome silk
shawl, which he tied around his body.
On arriving in his native town he pre-
sented the shawl to his sweetheart, a
girl of 10 years. She tied it around her
body and danced about for joy in room
in which were some twenty-five persons.
In two hours she died, and five hours
latter the introduction of the shawl into
the room the whole party of twenty-five
had died. All turned black. In three
days the whole town, containing 100
people, had died, with the exception of
forty-three persons, who had fled in
time. From this town the pest began
spreading all over the country.

FASHIONABLE FOOLISHNESS.

There is no modern fashionable notion
quite so absurd as the generally received
idea that to be beautiful and attractive a
woman must possess wan, spirituelle
face and figure of sylphlike proper
tions-a fragility in nine cases out of
ten the result of disease. By many
fashionable bellies it is considered spe-
cial compliment to be spoken of as frail
and delicate. They forget that the ma
turally delicate face and petite figure are
very different from the pale and disease
stricken faces that meet us in the city
thoroughfares, look out from the luxuri-
GUS carriages Of wealth, and glide lam
guidly through our crowded drawing
rooms. If disease were questionable,
as it ought to be, not a lady in the land
but would take every possible precaution
| to secure the fresh, blooming face and
we'll rounded figure that only health
can give. Ladies should remember that
much as gentlemen may profess to adj
mire the face and form paled and ema-
ciated by disease, when they choose a
wife they prefer blooming, healthful,
buoyant-spirlted woman. DR.. Pierce's
Favorite Prescription is the acknowledge
ed standard remedy for female diseases
and weakness. 1t has the two fold adj
vantage of curing the local disease and
imparting vigorous tone to the whole
system. 1t is sold by druggists.

WHY SHE STOPPED HER PAPER
She came bouncing through the sanctum
door like cannon ball, without pausing
to say, "How d. ye do ?" and brought her
umbrella down on the table with a
mighty crash and shouted.
II want you to stop my paper!"
"All right, madame
"Stop it right off, too" she persisted,
whacking the table again, "for L have
waited long enough for you to do the
square thing"
She quieted down for O moment. and
we ran our finger down the list of names
and when we reached hers and scratch
ed it out, she said:
"There, now, mebbe you'll do as you
ought to after this, and not slight wo-
man jest cause she's poor. If some rich
folks happen to have little red headed,
bandy-legged, squint eyed, wheezy
souawlor born to them, you puff it up to
The skies, and make it out an angel but
when poor people have baby you don't
say word about it, even if it is the

That's what's the matter, and that's
why I stopped my paper"
And she dashed out as rapidly as she
came.

VOODOOISM IN VIRGINTA.-We hear
of a wonderful prodigy down in the low
er part of the county that is exciting the
good people CT Pohick to an extent new
er before known. A blind negro girl,
the daughter of Samuel Lee (who is
himself said to possess some knowledge
of voodooism,) is performing some feats
that are marvellous in the extreme, and
show most conclusively that the girl
does possess some supernatural power,
as no natural agency could aid her in
the tricks which she performs.
A gentleman Of veracity told us the
other day of her feats, which, if true,
show her to be a prodigy indeed. He
told us of a gentleman who visited the
girl for the purpose of testing the super
natural powers said to be possessed by
her, and came away so thoroughly con
WINGED Of the truth of the wonderful tales
of her voodoo powers that he straight
way went to Washington city and res
ported the fact to the professor at the
Smithsonian Institute, who visited the
girl, and now he testifies to the fact that
we have a live voodoo doctress in our
county.
A gentleman had in his pocket pa
per which no one present had seen, and
OF winch no one present but himself
knew the purport, and upon his asking
the girl some questions in regard to the
purport Of the paper, the number of
signatures, the kind of paper upon which
it was written, &C., she answered every
one of them as correctly as if she had
seen and read it. One other wonder she
performs is she can tell the age, height,
and color of hair and eyes of a person
whom she has never seen. She can also
tell a person of the good deeds done in
his past life, and describe them in the
most minute particular. The gentleman
informs US that it is rule OF the girl
never to disclose her knowledge of evil
acts done by her iuterviewers under any
circumstances-no even by request of
the person interested.
The curiosity is creating immense ex-
element in the neighborhood, and hum
dreds are daily thronging to see her,
Many persons of high standing and
veracity have visited her and corroborate
the stories of her wonderful powers.
The gentleman from whom we get our
in regard to this girl is one
who is reliable and holds responsible
