Story of a Wonderful Cure.

The papers have been commenting on
the s. summer stories " published in diff
ferent parts of the country, but the fol-
lowing from the Catholic Mirror, pub
lished at Baltimore, cc.ipses anything
that has yet appeared: Mr.. James Pat
terson, of this city, has little daughter
Katie, who is now nearly ten years old.
Some five years ago she began to have a
slight occasional pain in one of her
knees, which became trifie enlarged,
and her parents took her to one of the
leading physicians of Baltimore, who
made light of the trouble, and gave
some medicines that did the child no
good. The enlargement increased, and
when the father took her to another
doctor, who also stands high in his pro-
fession, he pronounced it case of white
swelling, and he treated her for it. But
he did not succeed in curing her.
Finally, she was placed in the care of an
eminent surgeon, who has since died.
He, too, failed. The swelling re-
got drawn up SO that the child
could not put her foot down fiat
on the ground. Her father had great
faith in the apparitions at Knock. He
wrote to Ireland tosome friends for some
of the mortar from the chapel there, but
before it arrived an acquaintance gave
him about a tablespoonful of water in
which some of the mortar had been
dissolved. That was about two months
ago. The same evening he took the
child in his lap, rubbed some of the
water on her knee in the sign of the
cross, saying some prayers at the same
time, and then gave her the rest of the
water to drink. He then went to his
work as watchman, and when he re-
turned home the next morning he was
met by his daughter, who greeted him
with the words: Papa, my knee is as
well as ever it was" And sure enough
the swelling had disappeared, the sinews
had grown soft, aud the little girl could
walk as well with one foot as with the
other. The cure is perfect. Since that
day there has been no pain, and it is
now impossible to tell which knee was
| affected.

Queer Things About the Dismal Swamp

A Virginia paper tells some things
which are not generally known about
the dismal swamp. 1t is not a vast bog
sunk low in the ground, into which the
drainage of the surrounding country
flows. On the contrary, it is above the
level ground some fifteen or twenty feet.
as was demonstrated by actual surveys
Instead of being areceptacle into which
rivers and streams enter and flow, It j.
in reality an immense reservoir that, IN
its vast sponge-like bulk. gathers the
waters that fall from the heavens and
pours them into the five different rivers
which flow onward to the sea. Any
one would imagine that the dismal
was q veritable eharnel-house that
spreads its miasmas throughout the
country. On the contrary, it is the
healthiest place on the American contl-
nent. The swamp is entirely OF green
timber. There is absolutely no decom-
posed wood; one sees trees lying around
the forests and swamps- The two
principal woods that grow in the place
are the juniper and the cypress, which
never rot. They fall prone on the
ground like other trees, bnt instead OF
the wood decomposing it turns into
peat, and lies indissoluble by air or
water for ages perfectly sound. There
is nothing in the swamp to create
miasma; no rising of the tides and de-
composing of rank vegetables; no
marshes exposed to the burning rays OF
the sun. All is fresh and sweet, and the
air is laden with as sweet odors as the
fragrant woods in May, when the frag-
rance of the flowers mingles with the
pungent scent of the pine and dOgWOod-
In the ante -bellum days all planters were
anxious to hire their slaves to shingle-
makers in the swamp on account OF it.
healthfulness. Mr.. Reddick, q we'll
known contractor, says he worked a
gang of fifty hands for fifteen years in
the dismal, getting shingles, and in ali
that time there was not single case OF
the ague and fever. / have seen num-
erous affidavits Of Overseers and agents
who have lived in the swamp their
whole lifetime, and they never knew q
death caused by miasma or a solitary
instance of ague and fever. The air IS
pure and sweet, and the water, tinged
to faint wine hue by the juniper, is ~
potent medicinal drink as is to he
found at the famous watering places OF
the Virginia mountain spas. II is often
used by vessels going on a foreign cruise
on account of its heaithful properties,
and also because it keeps fresh aud clear
for years. 1t is q strong and invlgoTa-
ting tonic, with pleasant taste.

A BOYS Strange Pet.

Not long ago, near the Temescal tin
mines, in this county, says paper
published in San Bernardino, CAL,
lived a man named William jenkins.
He had small boy between two and
three years old. Il was observed for
some time that this child spent the
larger part Of his time at play near a
pile of rocks some distance from the
house. The father took occasion one
day TO follow his little boy soon after he
had gone to his usual place of resort.
when, to his horror, he discovered a
large rattlesnake coiled about the child.
who was feeding the poisonous reptile
from his hand. The father, almost
paralyzed with fear, secured a stick,
and, watching his opportunity, threw
the serpent from the child and killed it.
The boy was overcome with grief at the
death OF his pet. and would not be COM
forted for long time. The snake was
of the red variety, and about sir feet Ia
length.

A Harvest Song.

With beauty crowned, the bearded grain
Basks in the harvest sun;
The nurture needed for its growth
From countless sources won.
The cool winds kiss the golden heads,
The skies bend soft and blue;
And while men sleep, celestial hands
Shake down the balmy dew
And day by day, in rain and shine.
Its story sweet is told
OF Him whose tender love and care
The helpless world intold.
For the old Judean miracle
Each year is wrought again;
With His own hand the Master gives
Bread TO the sons OF men.
And never, while the rainbow spans
The storm-cloud's 3 misty trail,
Shall seed-time with its promise cease,
Nor harvest-blessing fail.

At the Pasture Bars.

At the Pasture Bars.
Returning lonely from the field
She met me at the pasture bars;
The moon was like golden shield,
The armament was Lit with ars.
As morning dawn her face was mild,
AS evening, SO her lmpid eyes;
God never gave sweeter child
For weary man to idolize.
So winsome seem ed her artless mirtb,
Her soft mxess and ardent kiss,
thought of all delights OF earth
The angels surely covet this.
know they mean to do no Ill,
But whom they love they lure away;
Good angels love her as you will,
But leave her with me while I stay.
just as she is, for would set
The hand of time behind an hour,
If that would stay little yet
The bud from blowing to the flower.
And when at length we homeward went
The fragrant azure shone SO clear,
The great familiar armament
/ thought had never seemed so near.
So near, the moon above the trees
An airy globe of silver swung,
And in the dewy tops of these
The stars in mellow clusters hung.
So near that could scarce forego
The thought that one who longing waits
Might hear them singing sweet and low
Across the golden portaled gates.

TIMELY TOPICS.

A German chemist has furnished an
exceedingly cheap and simple plan of
testing the amount of water in milk.
All that is required is small quantity
(say an ounce) of gypsum. This is
mixed with the milk to the consistency
Of la stiff paste, and then allowed to
stand. With a milk of 1.030 specific
gravity, and a temperature of sixty de-
grees Fahrenheit, the mixture will
harden in ten hours; if twenty five per
cent. of water is present, it will harden
in two hours; if fifty per cent, in an
hour and half; if seventy per cent,
in thirty minutes.

A e-and-aft schooner, while lying in
a safe harbor, as was supposed, and hay

safety Of the position, was boarded by
rats in such numbers that they ate away
stays, and also the ibis, foresail and
mainsail. All were destroyed beyond
the possibility of repair.

A fruit-picker is the --latest invention.
1t is simply ring or collar of sheet
metal four or five inches high and the
same in diameter, with the upper por-
ton. formed into half a dozen points
like crown, each point being covered
with an india rubber disk or shield to pre-
vent the fruit from injury by contact.
A socket in the side receives q light
pole Of any required length, and from
the bottom of the ring or crown extends
light hose of cotton drilling, or other
light material, to convey the f;uit down
to the band of the operator, or into a
basket, wagon, or wherever desired
Standing on the ground the operator
reaches for the fruit, the points of the
crown passing on each side of the stem,
and light upward shove easily de-
taches the fruit and it drops down
through the crown and hose. The
operator can hold the pole in one hand
and the hose in the other, or the hose
can be hooked to a small, movable
bracket placed on the pole for that pur-
pose, thus allowing of handling the pole
with both hands, or an assistant can
manage the hose.

The Electrician says that the life of a
submarine telegraph cable is from ten
to twelve years. If a cable breaks in
deep water after it is ten years old, it
cannot be lifted for repairs. as it will
break of its own weight, and cable CON-
panies are compelled to put aside large
reserve fund in order that they may be
prepared to replace their cables every
ten years. The action of the sea eats
the iron away completely, and it crum-
bles to dust, while the core of the cable
may beperfect. The breakages of cables
are very costly, and it is a very difficult
matter to repair them in compaison
with land line. A ship has to be
chartered at $500 day for two or three
weeks in fixing the locality and in
avoiding rough weather. One break in
the direct cable cost 100000.
