said that Chairman Barnum, of the
National Democratic Committee, is hap
py over an idea which has Just oc
CURED to him, to cry that New York
has been carried by the Republicans by
fraud. John Kelly is furiously de-
nounced by Democrats in this city, who
lay the blame of their defeat at his
door. He, in turn, accuses the leaders
Of mismanagement and blunders. AT
the meeting at Tammany Hall last
evening he denounced the members oi
Irving Hall, and declared that the
nomination Of Mr.. Grace for Mayor had
not hurt Hancock. He gave the cue 10
his followers, letting them know that
the cry Of fraud must be loud and long.
The members of Irving Hall were called

them nearly $1,000.
In New Jersey the Republicans con-

The latest returns from California in

Ex-senator Dorsey said at the Repub-

A Horrid Superstition.
from the San Francisco Call. !


The Prussian Wends, the remnant of
Slavic race once established in Ger
many, retain some of the grossest super
stitions CT their pagan ancestors. The
belief is general among them that the
heart or liver of dead infant or maiden
of tender years, brewed with certain
herbs into beverage, will cure diseases
or inspire the passion of love in the con-
sumers. The practical result of this be-
lief is the constantly recurrent violation
of the graves sanctity and the mutilation
of the corpses secretly disinterred. Re
Gently two graves in the new cemetery of
Weissensee we're broken open during the
night, the collins contained in them
forced, and the bodies Of an unmarried
girl and a male infant discovered next
morning by the guardians of the burial
ground, mangled in the most revolving
manner, the cavity OF the chest, in both
cases, having been completely emptied
of it's contents. A rigid search for the
perpetrators of this CHASTITY ofense is be-
ing instituted by the gendarmerie of the
Weissensee district, but with small hope
of success, as the superstitious savages
who have, upon several occasions within
the last few years, committed similar
outrages, have hitherto invariably es-
capped detection.

A Beau's Duel.

The following story is told of Fight
ing Fitzgerald, a celebrated beau, gam
bier, horseman and duelist. After his
return from Ireland, an old gentleman
declared his intention of trying to cure
Fitzgerald of his love for dueling. and
one day provoked him to contest. His
friends tried in vain to persuade him not
to go out. 'Leave me Alone" he said.
''I'l settle him. I have got the choice
of arms. Each shall be mounted, each
shall choose his own weapon, space
shall be marked out, and whoever crosses
the boundary first shall be declared van
quished." Fitzgerald being informed of
these strange proposals did not like to
refuse, and confident in his admirable
Craftsmanship and skill with all weapons,
accepted. He appeared on the ground
superbly mounted on fiery steed and
armed with pistols. To the surprise and
mirth of ali, the old gentleman trotted
up on donkey, carrying bladder with
dried peas inside, and scarlet cloak in
his hand Waving his cloak and shaking
his rattle, he rode into the space; off
started the fiery courser, and before
Fitzgerald knew where he was he had
crossed the boundary, and lost the duel
The ridicule was too much for him and
he never ''went OUT again.

Anecd ote of John Brouuham,

It is one of the traditions of the
late John Brougham' s life-as is not I'M
common with handsome actor-that he
had many tender experiences with silly
girls who fell in love with him. One of
these signed her own name to her billets,,
and wrote repeatedly, despite the dis
couragement of silence. She was very
DESTROYS to meet the comedian, be-
seeching again and again the privilege of
an interview. Finally, Brougham
named time and placefor their meeting.
She came promptly, and proved to be
very young, decidedly pretty, and Of
good social position. She was well edu-
Gated and clever, too. Instead of MAX
ing love to her, he read her moral lee
trlre; talked to her literally like a father;
pointed OUT the great danger Of her con-
duct, and told her that most men would
take advantage of her innocence. cit
sounds very egotistic, he added, for
me to say it, my child, but all actors are.
not John Broughams. She was moved
to tears and to the deepest gratitude by
his kind counsel; declared that he had
opened her eyes to her folly, and that
she would not be guilty of it again. She.
kissed his hand at parting, and went.
away, it is said, completely changed. A
year or two after she was married. She,
invited the comedian, as the story runs,
to her wedding, but he did not go.

Wanted to Marry.

According to Galingand's Messenger,
five years ago wealthy gentleman, M. de
K, died, leaving his wife possession
of a large fortune to be divided with their
child when the latter became of age-he
was only two years old then-on the con-
dition that she should not marry again.
The widow was only %, and In all the
bloom of her beauty. She disappeared
suddenly, and her friends found out that
she had retired into very modest
country house in company with one of
her sisters, who tended to the child's
education. What misery! every one
thought; she has more than 100, 900
francs year to spend, and she lets her
fine Paris apartments to go and live
shabbily with peasants. But this year
Madame de W reappeared in Paris
in all the elegancy of Partisan and as
beautiful as ever. What is the matter?
Why such a change? Mime. de x,
unwilling to remain widow all her life,
has abandoned her husbands legacy.
During the last five years she has been
saving small fortune, which enables
her now to marry the man of her choice.

support, and few pupils. I had it in my

and the first thing i saw when ushered

an old armchair. with a big book upon

and as she did SO, i noticed her eyes

fore the introduction of the moving

the grass faster than it can be cured.
A RECENT report on injurious insects
states that the popular idea that grubs
are killed by extreme cold is not borne
out by facts. An examination OF the
larvm and pupe that had been fully ex-
posed to the influence of frost showed
that they were uninjured even when the
earth containing them was frozen so
hard that the mass had to be broken
with hammer. Frost, then, instead of
diminishing the number of insect pests,
has tendency just the other way. For,
not only does the frozen earth afford a
safe retreat to the grubs from the attack
of birds, but excessive and prolonged
cold proves fatal to the birds themselves.
THERE is disadvantage in feeding
cracked corn that has become sour by
age. We have procured meal and crack
ed corn, both ground at the same time,
and the latter after awhile would become
rancid, while the former would be per-
fectly sweet. The principal reason for
having the corn cracked is to get it small
enough so that chickens can swallow it.
This is well, if the poultry keeper is not
too far from mill; but many can not
procure cracked corn as often as desir-
able, yet have ample facilities for rails
of corn with small kernels for chickens.
Some varities of pop corn meet the case,
furnish affair yield, and may be kept an
