KILLED BY a FALLING TREE. On
Friday last John Fisher, of Maitland
this county, was killed by falling
tree. Mr.. i. was cutting wood near
his residence, and his wife heard him
fell several trees, the last one she
heard being at about eleven o'clock.
She afterwards summoned him to din
ner several times, but on his failing t.
respond she proceeded To the wood
and was Mortified to find him lying
dead at the edge Of the creek with II
tree across his head. the front part OF
his skull having been crushed in. Ev-
identity the tree had turned in its
course and caught him unexpectedly.
Help was summoned and his remains
were removed to the house.
Fisher was son Of the wellknown
medicine peddler who died n few years
ago, and he was sometimes engaged
in the same business himself. He was
in poor circumstances, and leaves u
wife and sixteen children. Not all the
children, however, were living at
home. .--LEwIsTowN DEMOCRAT q

MACON, Ga, March 81, 1879.
From having been intimate a number OF
years with the proprietoIs of ''Swift's Syph-

manufacture aud use. There are men in this
communicated known citizens-who were
victims in early life TO syphilis, the most ter
rible curse that ever afflicted the human FAM
jly, and who have taken the S.S.S. medi-
cine, and are now to all appearances, and In
their own belief, as free from faint of disease
as the first man, fresh from the hands OF his
maker. Delicacy of course forbids their pub
lie recommendations of this medicine, but i
am allowed to refer the specific privately TO
those who will endorse everything that can
be said in its favor, Being professionally
much opposed to endorsing or recommend
ing nostrums or secret remedies, Il is with
hesitation that attach my name to this arti-
Gle; hut know whereof speak when say
that our science has not made public COM
bination equal to ''Swiff's Syphilitic Specif-
ic'' for the purpose indicated The greatest
boon the government could bestow on hum

Cheese Made from Potatoes.

A foreign paper says that
cheese is made from potatoes
in Thuringia and Saxony in the
manner below. Possibly the
process may be found worth
trying, ifnot profitable in this
country. After having collect
ed a quantity of potatoes, of
good quality, give the prefer
ence to a large, white kind, they
are boiled in a caldron, and af-
ter becoming cool they are peel
ed and reduced to pulp, either
by means of a crater or morter.
To five pounds of this pulp,
which ought to be as equal as
possible, is added one pound OF
sour milk and the necessary
quantity of salt. The whole is
kneated together and the mix
rure covered up and allowed to
lie for three or four days, ac-
cording to the season. At the
end of this time it is kneated
anew, and the cheese are placed
in little baskets, when the SUI
perfluous moisture escapes.
They are then allowed to dry in
the shade, and placed in layers
in large vessels, when they must
remain for fifteen days. The
older these cheese are the more
the quality improves. Three
kinds are made. The first and
most common is made as de-
tailed above; the second,
with four parts of potatoes and
two parts of curdled milk; the
third, with two parts of potatoes
and four parts of COW or eve
milk. These cheeses have this
advantage over other kinds,
that they do not engender
worms, and keep fresh for a
number Of years, provided they
are placed in dry situation
and in well-closed vessels.

Purposes of the Grange.

Rural World.
We cannot find anything bet
ter for the grange column this
week than the following extract
from the declaration of purposes
of the Order. Though read by
most members before, it will
well repay another perusal:
"To develop a better and
higher manhood and woman
hood among ourselves.
ITO enhance the comforts
and attractions of our homes,
and strengthen our attachments
to our pursuits.
ITO foster mutual understand
ing and cooperation. To buy
less and produce more, in order
to make our homes self-sustain-
! ing.
"To systemic our work. and
calculate intelligently on prob
abilities.
ITO discontinue the credit
system, the mortgage system,
the fashion system, and every
other system tending to prodi-
gaiity and bankruptcy.
ITO bring producer and con-
sumner, farmer and manufacturer
into the most direct and friendly
relations possible.
"To encourage the building
| of railroads and canals, open
out the channels of natures
great arteries, so that the life
blood of commerce may flow
freely.
ITO remove the antagonism
between capital and labor, by
common consent and wise states
manship.
10 oppose excessive salaries,
high rates of interest, and eXor-
bitant per cent. profits in trade.
ITO suppress personal, local,
sectional and national preju-
dices, all unhealthy rivalry, and
all selfish ambition.
"To encourage education
among ourselves and for our
children by all just means in
our power, and to advocate for
our agricultural and industrial
colleges that practical agricul-
ture, domestic science, and all
the arts which adorn the home,
be taught in their course of
study.
ITO induce farmers to take a
more active part in the politics
of the country, and 70 work for
good in the political party to
which they belong, putting
down bribery, corruption and
trickery; and to see that honest
men, who will unfiinchingly
stand by our industrial intrests,
are nominated for positions of
trust, and to carry out the prin-
ciples which should character
ize every patron"

Wanted to See the Bill.
From willanspou Breakfast Tablet

From Williamsport Breakfast Table,
A few days ago a well-dress-
couple, in the prime of life, stop
ed at hotel in a town not a
thousand miles from this city,
and, sending for a justice of
the peace, informed that func-
tionary that they wished to be
married.
"All right" said the justice.
Then he inquired their names,
and on being told, If struck him
that he had performed the same
service for the lady some years
before. Upon inquiring if such
was the case, the lady replied;
Eyes, sir, 1 have been married
previously"
Have you a bill from your
former husband ?" asked the
Justice.
I "Yesa,
This being satisfactory, the
ceremony was performed, and
the couple were declared man
and wife.
As they were about depart
ing, the justice, who had never
seen a bill of divorce, and who
had a strong desire to behold
Of the documents, thought this
an excellent opportunity of sat
isfy his curiosity. He there
fore said to the lady:
"You say you have bill from
your former husband?"
"Oh,"
"Have you any objection to
allowing me to see the bill |"
ooh, none whatever.
And stepping to the door,
and calling to little boy, some
three or four years of age, who
had been left in the carriage,
she said.
Here Bill, come here quick;
here's a gentleman that wishes
to see you
The gentleman wilted.

Conan' Thro' the Rye.

Albany August
A New York pictorial pub
lished an illustration Of Comm
Thro' the Rye" and blunders
into what we presume is the
popular misconception of the
ditty, giving a laddie and a lassie
meeting and kissing in field
Of grass. The lines
Ifa laddie meets lassie
Comm thro' the rye.
andespecially the other couplet:
A the lads they smile on me
When comm thro' the rye,
Seems to imply that travers-
ing the rye was a habitual or
common thing, but what in the
name Of the royal agricultural
society could be the object in
tramping down a crop of grain
in that style. The song, per-
haps. suggests a harvest scene,
where both sexes, as is the Gus
tom in Great Britain, are at
work reaping, and where they
would come and go through the
fields, indeed, but not through
the rye itself, so as to meet and
kiss in it. The truth is, the rye
in this case is no more grain
than Rye Beach is, it being the
name Of small shallow stream
near Ayr in Scotland, which.
having neither bridge nor ferry,
was forded by the people going
to and from the markets, Gus
tom allowing a lad to steal a
kiss from any lass of his ac-
quaintance whom he might
meet in the midstream. Our
contemporary will see that this
is the true explanation, if he
will refer to Burns original bal
lad, in which the first verse re-
fers to the lass wetting her
clothes in the stream.
