THE FATAL GLASS.
A Drunken Man Swallows Pulverized
Glass and Dies

From the Shakopee (Mipn.) Argus.
Mr. Clchia, Of Lensburg, LIE Sueur
County, got on a spree last week Monday
at Montgomery, and offered to wager that
he could swallow the glass contained in
whisky flask. The wager was taken up
by one OF the party present. whereupon
the drunken man proceeded to swallow
the pulverized glass, and also a tallow
candle. Strange to relate, that night he
felt no i'll effects caused by the rash deed,
but next day the glass began to cut and
grind his bowels, compelling the man to
writhe and scream in agony This con-
tinued until Thursday morning. when
the poor wretch was brought to New
Prague in the delusive hope that a ply
sician could save him from his inevitable
and fast approaching death. OF course
no physicians skill conld now save or
even prolong the life which had been so
deliberately though unknowingly taken.
1t was pitiful and heart rendering to
hear the poor mortal moan and scream
in agony as the death dealing glass slow
ly but constantly cut its way into the vi
tails. This could not long continue, how
ever, and death kindly relieved the suf-
fering man Thursday afternoon. A post
mortem examina ton was held and the
mans stomach and intestines were found
to be literally ground to pieces.
A wife and nine children are left de-
pendent by the foolhardiness of a man
crazed by drink. This may prove timely
warning to those addicted to the exces-
sive use of substance as deadly in its
final effects as that swallowed by the man
who came to so untimely an end.

The Home Journal tells a funny story
about Tennyson and Thackeray. Once
they were in Paris, and Thackeray. on
going out, cautioned the servant not to
let the fire go out: me laisseS pas SORTS
le feu" Thackeray's French pronuncia-
tion not being perfect, the servant under,
stood the last word to be tou instead OF
fen; consequently he was not to let the
madman go out When Thackeray got
back, he found the hotel in great excite
ment and Tennyson, in a towering rage,
stalking about, while the landlord de-
clared that the madman insisted on go
ing out. The people in the hotel had to
unite their forces to hold him in.

Special Dispatch to the Gin. Gazette.
WASHINGTON, May IL.
Senator Hill, in his speech last Satur-
day, tried to prove that he had always
been white souled Union man, and that
Zach. Chandler was the guilty original
cause of the recent difficulty between the
two sections. In this connection the
following resolu tions, which were intro
duced into the Confederate Senate in
October, 1862, by the gentleman from
Georgia, will be of some general interest
"Resolued, That every person pretend
ing to be soldier or officer of the United
States, who shall be captured on the soil
of the Confederate States after the lst
day of January, 1868, shall be presumed
to have entered the territory of the Con-
federate States with intent to incite in
surrection and to abet murder. and, un
less satisfactory proof be issued to the
contrary before the military court before
which trial shall be had, he shall suffer
death, and this section shall continue in
force until the proclamation issued by
Abraham Lincoln, dated Washington,
September % 1862, shall be rescinded."
Senator Hill also introduced the fol-
lowing:
Every white person who shall act as a
commissioned or non commissioned ON
Ger commanding negroes or mulattoes
against the Confederate States, or who
arm, organize, train. or prepare negroes
or mulattoes for military service, or aid
them in any military enterprise against
the Confederate States, shall, if captured,
suffer death. Every commissioned or
non commissioned officer of the enemy
who shall incite slaves to rebellion, or
pretend to give them their freedom, un
der the aforementioned act of Congress
and proclamation, by abducting, or caus-
ing them to be abducted, or inducing
death"

al ends they have brought their mental
forces under complete and perfect con-
troll. Necessity is the great master, and
it operates on all classes of society-lt

as with an immense majority of people
this schoolmaster begins his lessons in
youth, by means of the struggles and
burdens of life, and continues them with

Symptoms of a Diseased Liver.

DAIN in the right side, under the edge
L of the ribs, increases on pressure;
sometimes the pain is in the left side;
the patient is rarely able to lie on the
left side; sometimes the pain is felt
under the shoulder blade, and it fire.
quently extends to the top of the shoul-
der, and is sometimes mistaken for
rheumatism in the arm. The stomach
is affected with loss of appetite and
sickness; the bowels in general are
costive, sometimes alternative with lax;
the head is troubled with pain, cccom-
panied with dull, heavy sensation in
the back part There is generally a
considerable loss of memory, accom-
panied with painful sensation of hav-
ing left undone something which ought
to have been done. A slight, dry cough
is sometimes an attendant. The patient
complains of WEAKNESS and debility; he
is easily startled, his feet are cold or
burning, and he complains of a prickly
sensation of the skin; his spirits are
low; and although he is satisfied that
exercise would be beneficial to him,
yet he can scarcely summon up forti-
tude enough to try it. In fact, he dis
trusts every remedy. Several of the
above symptoms attend the disease, but
cases have occurred where few of them
existed, yet examination of the body,
after death, has shown the LIVER to
have been extensively deranged.

question to scholar in country school:
"How do you parse Mary milked the

the intelligent pupil, if the cow didn't
