A NEW KIND OF WATCH CASE.

New because IL IS only within the last few
years that it has been improved and brought
within the reach OF every ono: Old in principle
because the first invention was made and the
first patent taken out nearly twenty years ago,
and cases made at that time and worn ever
since, arc nearly as good as new. Read the fol-

According to Dr.. S. Gibbon, a
London health officer, the Jews are
the longcst-livcd people in the great
metropolis. They arc notoriously en-
cmpt from tnbercular and scrofulous
faint. 1t is very rare that one meets
with pulmonary consumption among
them. In the district of White Chapel
the medical officer Of health has re-
ported that on the north side OF tho
High street, occupied by Jews, the
average death rate is twenty per
1000, while Oh the south side, occu-
pied by English and Irish, it is forty
three per 1000.

HOW CHICKENS GET Our or SHELLS.
Take an egg out Of n nest on which
a hen has had her full time, carefully
holding it to the ear; turning it round,
you will find the exact spot which the
little fellow is picking on tho inside of
the shell this he will do until the in
side shell is perforated, and then tic
shell is forced outward rs u small
scale, leaving hole. Now, if YOU
will take one Of the eggs in this con-
d:tion from under the hen, remove it
to tho house or other suitable place,
put it i'll box or nest, keeping it
warn and moist, rs near the tcmpera-
ture of the hen as possible (Which
may be dono by laying it between two
bottles of warm water upon some cot
ton or some woody and lay glass over
tho box or nest, then you can sit or
stand, as is most convenient, and wit
moss the true nodus operandt. Now
watch the little fellow work his way
into the world, and you will be amused
and instructed as l have often been.
After he has got his opening, he COM
mcnccs q nibbling motion with the
point of the upper bill on the outside
OF the shell, always working to the
right (if you have tho large end of the
egg. from you, and the bole upward),
until he hns worked his way almost
around, say with onc-half Of an inch
in a perfect circle; hc then forces tho
cap or butt end Of the shell of, and
then has chance to straightcn his
neck, thereby looscning his legs some
what, and so, by their help, forcing
the body from the shell.-Americaa,

countries affairs have taken serious

in Baltimore, Md, on Monday even-
ing, tho Sth instant. Mr.. Boylston
was formerly citizen of this county
and resident Of Winnsboro, but re-
moved to Baltimore several years ago
to practice his profession, which was
that of the law. For several months
past he had been in declining state
of health, 9Nd at length died of that
insidious disoasc- consumption. He
was the son Of Hon. r. B. Boylston,
who was we'll known to many Of our
readers. Mr.. Boylston leaves wife
and several children, to whom, with
his numerous relatives and friends, we
extond our sincere sympathics.

the deaths Of two of our citizens,
which occurred at nearly the same
time and from the samo disease:
Mr.. D. r. Gladncy died at his resi-
dcnce, in Winnsboro, on Tuesday
. morning, from an attack Of pneumo-
mia. He was about forty-seven years
of age, and had, for fcw years past,
been in bad health. Flo was bravo
soldier of the Confederate army, and
bore OH his body tho wounds of tho
bayonet received in battle. His re-
mains were taken to jackson Creek
Church for burial on Wednesday morn
ing.
Mr.. Fl. Harmon died of the same
disease on Tuesday morning. Hc was
q native Of Germany, but for many
years had beon quiet and uno5stru-
sive citizen Of Winnsboro. He, also,
had been failing in health for moro

MURFREEsBoRo, July 22d.-
Yesterday evening, between 3
and 4 o'clock, at a singing school
in Science Hill Church, nine
miles east Of this place on the
Woodbury. pike, a white man
by the name Of Bob Stevens
walked into the church in an in
toxicated condition, exposing his
person. He took a back scat,
but soon becoming tired Of his
seat he moved over into crowd
of young ladies, and started to
take hold Of one Of them, when
the teacher asked him to desist,
which he refused to do, and two
young men carried him out. He
came back again, when a young
man named James Mullins took
him off about thirty steps from
the church and began to mildly
expostulatc with him for his
rudeness. Stevens then became
enragcd, and drew Il knife and
cut a cash about four inches
long in Mullins throat. He then
started toward Woodbury., and
has not been heard from since.

According to the loyal Gar
field press, @throwing mud con-
sists in lcprinting the testimony
and reports of republican COM
mittees of a republican congress
touching Gen. Garficld's connec-
ton with the Credit Mobiliel
swindle and the De Golyer pave
ment steal; also the comments
and conclusions arrived at when
these reports were given to the
public by such loyal newspapers
as the New York Tribune, tho
New York Times, the Albany
Ereniag Journal, etc. And now
comes another avalanche Of
"mud" from the same mint. Al
about the time when "the back
pay steal' was passing congress
it was shown by testimony which
never had been and never car
be truthfllly questioned, that
Gen. Garfield, who, as chairman
of the committee on appropri'
ations, was engineering this

in the act of "plying their vOca'

"Mr. Holman--If the House refuse. TO
sustain this point, will ii not be in order TO
recommit it TO the same committee?
"rhe Speaker-It would be TO order
new conference.
"Mr. Holman-We have twenty hours
left in which that can be done. (Mr. llol-
man demanded the yeas and nays, and
they were ordered
"Mr. Domain ask that the rule be read
which prohibits members from voting on a
question which they are Interested IN.
"The speaker-That has no application
here whatever"
The question was then taken
on the report of the conference,
and it was adopted: yeas, s102,
nays, So. Garfield voted with
the majority, though change
of only three votes would have
defeated the steal. After all
his trimming, double-dealing,and
trickery, he finally went to the
record in company with Gen,
Butler and the original grabbers,
His action proves that he was q
confederate in disguise from the
start, and, from his position, the
most powerful of them all. Ht
is directly responsible for this
iniquity. Without his direct
aid it could never have beer
carried. His deception of Its
opponents on the night of the
9th of February, when he VIC
lated a solemn pledge in calling
up the Legislative bill, was The
entering wedge. After that thu
way was c!elr. Garfield drew
his back pay, and when public
Indignation alarmed the grab
bcrs, he sneakingly returned i
to the Treasury.
