Superstition South of the Equator.

There are three great divisions of the
Indian family residing in the parts of
South America which lie south of the
Equator; but though differing in Ian
guage, customs, and manners, they all
belong to the A1yan branch, and most
probably came across in numerous mi
grations from Central Asia by the Straits
Of Behring. With regard to religion,
they believe in two gods. The first is
called by some Pillau; BY others, Cuch-
auciatru, or "the great god. q He is sup
posed to bear tie human form, but can
make himself invisible. He is the crea--
tor Of the world, and author of all that
is good. The Indians never assemble
to worship him; he is supposed to be
content with the respect given to him
In the heart Of each individual. The
other god is "tbe spirit Of evil, q known
as Gualichu; to him every sacrifice and
offering is made to propitiate his wicked
designs. Not only do the Pampa Indians
believe in the Immortality Of the soul,
but also in the doctrine Of metempsy.
Ghosts; hence when burying their dead.
they always sacrifice oYer the grave the
favorite horse Of the dead man, and
place beneath the tumulus the warriors
arms. q.

A Cheap Smoke. House.

Dig narrow pit from twelve to eigh-
teen inches deep, throwing the earth all
out on one side. From. near the bottom
of the pit dig a trench Of sufic ientl length
to hold one or two joints of stove pipe,
at such an angle as will bring the end
away from the pit to the surface of the
ground. Over the end of this pipe set a
common -four barrel or large cask, as
may be needed, and, having removed
both heads, bank up around it with loose
dirt, so that no smoke can escape at the
bottom. Putting a cover on the sticks
will leave space enough for .draught to
let the smoke pass freely. Build smoke
fire of corn-cobs, damp hard wood OF
sawdust IN the pit, and YOU will have a
cheap, safe and efficient smoke house

In Campbell county, Va, fon the

English Market .

The Mark Lane Egprcss Of June Dist,
says: Rains at the beginning of the week and
subsequent sunshine materially improved the
condition of cereals. Although the wheat
plant In some places is reported thin, general
~ speaking there are sanguine hopes of q fair
average crop. The prospects of barley are
also favorable. Supplies of English wheat in
both Mark Lane and the provinces have con-
tnued small and sales restricted. There has
been an occasional decline of shilling per
quarter for inferior descriptions. The demand
for the little fine white English which was on
offer, has doubtless been interfered with by
large arrivals Of Australian. The imports of
foreign into London consisted almost entirely
OF white from Australia, New Zealand and In.
dia. Trade has been less firm. The consump-
tive requirements Of the country during the
next two months should be quite sufficient to
neutralize the tendency to discount the effect
OF the good home crop, while the continent
may be relied upon to relieve US of o fair pro-
portion of the shipments from America. Pur-
chases the past week have been for present
requirements. All descriptions Of white wheat
receded shilling under the pressure of large
supplies. Red has not shared the decline, as
stock of America and Russia now remaining
In London are sufficiently low to warrant hold
ers in showing great frmness. It needs only
q slight increase in the demand to advance
prices shilling or two, as Russia is shipping
hardly any, while red winter American has
been bought off the coast for the continent,
and large quantities have also been shipped
thither direct. The markets will now to q
great extent be influenced by the weather, but
there does not seem to be much probability of
the price Of wheat varying greatly from that
Of the previous harvest. II, however, the pre-
cent crop prospects on both hemispheres are
realized, trade will have to deal with an un.
precedented surplus Of breadstufs. Arrivals
at ports Of call have been limited, but prices
are dropping. The coast is still bare Of maize.
America has not offered wheat for shipment
quite as freely, but prices continued to de-
cline, especially for prompt shipment Red
