Fearful Cyclone.

We are indebted to Hon. j. +.
Young for the following particulars
in regard to the'cyclone which passed
through the northern part of this
county Thursday evening. July LIST.
Mr.. Young says it beganjust north of
Z. G. Wright's place, in the neigbOr-
hood CT Double Bridges, going in a
rather south-easterly direction, thro
the premises of r. r. Sharp, blowing
down fences, twisting off trees, like
pipe stems, and uprooting others,
passing thence through wheat field
belonging to DR.. Sam Young, scatter
ing the wheat shocks in every direc-
ton and uhroofng a vacant cabin.
1t next struck the house of John Har-
ris, involyingitin total ruin. Strange
to say, the family of Mr.. Harris, who
were in the house at the time, escaped
with only some slight scratches. 1t
next struck the premises of Mr.. {.
A. Yancy, unroOfng his house and
scattering the household goods in the
upper story in every direction, some
of them, including feather bed have
never been found. The whirling de,
mon then passed into the Furked Deer
bottom, in the direction of Chestnut
Bluff, laying waste the timber in its
course. Ripley Near5.

How a Grand Pianist got a Wife.

List was at Prague in the autumn of
1946. The day after his arrival stran.
ger called upon him and represented
himself as a brother artist In distress,
having expended all his means in an un.
successful lawsuit, and solicited aid to
enable him to return to Nuremburg, his
former place of residence. Liszt gave
him hearty reception and opened his
desk to get some money, but found that
he possessed only three ducats.
"You see," said the generous artist, 81
am as poor as yourself. However I have
credit, and can coin more money with
my piano. I have miniature given me
by the emperor of Austria; the painting
is of little value but the diamonds are
fine; take it, sell the diamonds and keep
the money"
The stranger refused the itch gift, but
Liszt compelled him to take it, and he
carried 1t to jeweler, who, suspectlng
from his miserable appearance that he
had stolen it, had HIM arrested and then
thrown into prison. The stranger sent
for his generous benefactor who immedi
ately called upon the jeweler and told
him that the man was innocent, that he
had given HIM the diamonds.
"But who are you9" asked the jeweler.
"My name is Liszt," he replied.
"I know of no tinancier of that name" /"
SAID the jeweler.

"But do you know that these diamonds
are worth 5000 f1orins9"
$50 much the better for him to whom

7'But you must be very rich to make
such presentsG'
"My sole fortune consists of three du-
CATS" said Liszt.
"Then you are fool" remarked the
jeweler.
"No. have only to move the ends of
my fingers to get as much money as !
want"

The jeweler was satisfied, the stranger

besought him to givo concert in theil

him. and said to him:

The Carthusian Monks.

A sketch of these monks, who in all
probability will come to America if they
are driven from France, says: The forest
by which the monastery is surrounded,
was seized by the Republic, and the
monks now pay rent for it. The value
of the timber cut annually In it, is set at
$4,000. It is curious rule of the Or
der, that the members shall 60 to bed at
six o'clock in the evening, rise at eleven,
60 to bed again at two, and rise again at
five o'clock In the morning. Each monk
spends the greater part of his time in his
cell, has only one hour each day for re-
creation. Once week all walk out to-
yether, ans during a portion of the year,
all eat together, but in silence. On fast
days they have one meal of bread and
water; ordinarily they live on avegetable
diet, their meals being thrust into their
cells through a hole In the wall. Be
tween the village and the monastery is
the pourVosrse, the working place of the
monks, whence Is sent all over the world,
the delicious Charrreux liquer, the secret
of whose preparation, st. Bruno is
said to have discovered, and which has
been kept inviolate by his successors, who
regard it as they do the episcopal
trusts they assume. The herbs Of which
the liqueur is largely composed are collect
ed by the monks In the fields ON the left
bank of the river Guiers. The delicate

HindOO Women.

The Hindoo women, when young, are
delicate and beautiful. SO far as we can
reconcile beauty with the olive complex
ion. They are finely proportioned; their
limbs small, their features soft and reg
ular, and their eyes blight and ianguish-
ing; but the bloom of beauty soon decays.
and age makes rapid progress before
they have seen thirty years.
This may be accounted for from the
heat of the climate and the customs of
the country, as they are often mothers at
twelve years of age.
No women can be more attentive to
cleanliness than the Hindoos; they take
every method to render their persons
delicate, soft and attractive; their dress
Is peculiarly becoming, consisting OF q
long piece of silk or cotton, tied round
the waist, or hanging in graceful man
ner to the feet; it is afterward brought
over the body in negligent folds; under
this they cover the bosom with short
waistcoat OF satin, but wear no linen.
Their long, black hair is adorned with
jewels and wreaths of flowers; their ears
are bored in many places, and loaded
with pearls; variety of gold chains,
strings of pearls and precious stones,
fall from the neck over the bosom,
and the arms are covered with brace
lets from the wrist to the elbow. They
have also gold and silver chains round
the ankles, and an abundance of rings ON
their fingers and toes; among those On
the fingers is frequently small mirror

Temperature Of the Ocean.

The variations in the warmth of the
sea water occur within a range OF one
third less than that of the air, and the
mean temperature of the sea is found to
be warmer than that OF the atmosphere
in eleven months out of the twelve. The
summer warmth penetrates the sea very
gradually, and is more gradually given
of.
January is the coldest month, but the
sea water is coldest in March; July Is the
hottest month, but the sea water attains
its maximum warmth toward the end Of
August. From that time the sea becomes
warmer than the air, and cOols so much
more slowly than the weather that in
November the average warmth of the wa
ter is six degrees, and in December seven
degrees higher than that of the atmos-
phere. The balance is reached at the end
of March, and then for the next five months
the air is warmer than the water. These
figures. which result from careful obser
vations made at Peterhead, Scotland, jus.
tify the custom OF extending sea-bathing
late into the autumn. Sea-bathing
should in fact, begin late, and may safely
end late. It's more dangerous in the
warm days of early summer than In the
chilly days even of the late autumn.
The sea is as warm at the end of October
as it is in the second week OF June; and
the period between these two dates is tho
healthy bathing season for those who are
strong enough to begin early and end late.

Irish Famines.

AS there were heroes before Agamem-
non, so. says the London Erominer, there
were Irish famines before 1946-47 i.
There was serious failure of tie pota-
to crop, beginning IN 1879 and culmin-
ating in 1741, the bliadhain an air, or
year OF slaughter. 1t was left almost
entirely to private charity to deal with
In 1922 the provinces of Munster. and
Connaught were subjected to very severe
calamity. The potatoes rotted in sud-
den, vnaccountable manner in the pits,
and widespread suffering followed. A
single committee. with the Archbishop
of Canterbury at its head, raised over ST.
100000, while parliament voted large
sums for public works OF various kinds.
Again in 1881 the potato crop failed IN
Galway, Mayo and Donegal. and again
the English people and parliament came
TO the reliet of the distressed popula-
ton with alacrity. In 1889 and 1899
similar failures were met by similar rem
edies, and then came the real crisis OF
1846-47. The blight which had appear
ed for the first time IN America in 1874
reached ireland in the autumn of 1S45.
Writing In August, 1846, Ether Matth-
ew says: 81 passed from Cork to Dub
lin, and this doomed plant bloomed in all
the luxuriance of an abundant harvest.
Returning on the third inst, I beheld
with sorrow one wide waste of putrefy
ing vegetation. The government at once
took energetic oction. The corn and
navigation laws were suspended, and
$500, 900 worth of Indian corn brought
from the United States. By the middle
of August, 1846, $3,6OOOOO had been ex-
pended in relieving the famine, one-half
as loans, the other as grants, while the
volunteer relief committee raised $780,
900. Bread-wlnners representing pop
ulation Of 100000 were daily employed
on public work." "Organized armies,
amounting altogether to some hundreds
OF thousands ;" says Sir Charles, at the
close of this famine, chad been rationed
before, but neither ancient nor modern
history can furnish parallel to the fact
that upward of 10000 of persons were
fed every day in the neighhorhood of
their own homes by administrative ar
rangements emanating from and CONTROL.
ed by one central Office. The amount at
which 1t was originally estimated by the
commissioners was $15,OO0,OOO, the sum
for which parliament was asked to pro-
vide was 81 100000, and the sum actu-
ally expended was $7,5OO,OOO, of which
$500, 900 was paid to commissariat fol
meal supplied to the relief committee
from the government stores" The Cal.
amity of 1846 AZ was recognized as ma
tlonal. and 1t was met by great nation
al effort by which the landlords were
perhaps the greatest benefciaries.
