Mr.. William r. Seymour, of Columbus,
O., writes: 81 attended a course of lee
lures several winters ago at the Ohio Medi-
cal College of Cincinnati, O. There was
taught that Iron is prominent element
in the physical organism of mankind ::
without it life is an impossibilty. A vast
per centage of the diseases and premature
deaths to which the race is subject, is
caused, Or at least made possible by a
weakening of the body in consequence of a
lack of Iron in the blood Having suffered
from i'll health, poor digestion and urinary
troubles ever since I recovered from ty-

fever, 1 determined to give Iron a trial.
From investigation I learned that Browns

l would not for one moment cast a
doubt, says n Paris correspondent, up
on the g%enuineness or origin of a GER
tain immense emerald which its propri-
etor is trying to sell to the wife of an
American millionaire for seventy thou
sand francs. It is said to have been
presented to an ancestor by a great sui
tan two or three centuries ago. Per-
haps it was; and, as the gentleman who
now offers it bears an unblemished
reputation, I should think the story
true. But / can not forget an incident in
which a very high-born lady was very
nearly ruined by a simple act of COM
p~laisance towards one of her friends,
who was in money difficulties. The tale
Is perfectly authentic. 1t was told to
me last night by one of the parties in
volved, and for hat reason l shall only
give initials, which, / need scarcely add,
are not real ones. Said the Countess

the very thing for q wedding present,
and she would speak to him. So she
did, and he took her advice, and, quite
by chance, happened to meet an ac-
quaintance, q celebrated lapidary from
London, who consented to accompany
him as an expert. The stones were
produced and weighed and examined,
and approved of by M. de N, who.
however, did not conclude their pur-
chase at once, thanks to a sign from the
Englishman. 81 can not understand
disapproval," he said, when they got
out into the street; 'the diamonds are
magnificent, they are dirt cheap, why
should 1 not buy themP" simply"
replied Mr.. o., 'sbecause they belong
to me; q fortnight ago they were stolen
from my rooms, and it is for their re-
covery that / am in Paris now" No
scandal was made about the affair, as

Answer to X. d. w.

MIR. EDITORS: Your correspondent r. o. w :,
from ROCKS of Deer Creek, asks for information
in reference to q wonderful appearance on the
evening or the llth.inst. in the western skies of
golden cross, the lower part of which was hid
den by crimson colored cloud, while at the same
eastern part of the heavens.
Nothing is easier than to explain this truly
wonderful phenomenon To see stars" is often
the painful duty of us all, bur to see a golden
cross hlgh In the heavens has not been Vollch-
safed to man since the days of Constantine Ny
explanation is this: X. o. W. had evidently been
in row with some of those spirits which, accord
Rocks OF Deer Creek from the DAYS when tho
noble red man made them his home, when the
chief upon his throne of rock sat in council
amidst the warriors of his tribe, down to the
present day and time, when the hills no longer
re-echO the savage war cries but are resonant
with the songs and harmonies of civilization The
aforesaid spirits possibly had gotten the better of
r. o. W., and being worsted in the fight, il made
MIN mad. Now for a fact we know great many
persons when they become angry get cross-oyei
we Will suppose that h. o. W. is of this class
and getting his eyes in position he saw across
his nose. SO much for the cross.
Now for the cloud Still supposing his ewes to
was easier than for him to have unknowinpIy
winked his eyebrows, which would have caused a
contraction of the muscles of the face and n con-
sequent drawing up of the lower lids of the eyes
ana OF course after the encounter with the SDiy;k
ms eye lids must have been very red, hence the
crimson colored cloud" which obscured the
vision. '"0
The star in tie East which surprised X. O. w. bv
rs brightness was no doubt the moon, which at
the date mentioned rose about o'clock in the
morning. This conundrum was too easy-Rive

REoUIsITIoN FOR A PRIsoNER.-About one
yearago Samuel Ward, who lived near Dublin,
was arrested on the charge of stealing and butch
ering several hogs belonging TO a neighbor,
Thackeray Smith. Being indicted by the grand
jury, Ward gave bail in the sum of $500 for his
appearance at court, and then 'jumped' his
bail and left for parts unknown. Constable X
S. McNutt, after diligent search, found that
he had gone 10 Lancaster city, and proceeding
thither he procured the arrest of Ward at the
postofiice, when he came to get his mail. Ward
was lodged in Jail, and on Tuesday Sheriff

The Guiteau Trial.

Large crowds continue to attend the trial
of the murderer of President Garfield, at
Washington. On Saturday and Monday
Guiteau's sister, Mrs. Scoville, was on the
witness stand. She related a number ofinci-
dents of cratic conduct on the part of the
prisoner, such as his applying soft soap to the
trunks of hickory trees, thinking they were
fruit trees, sc. She thought at the time he
was insane, and wanted to have him placed
in lunatic asylum.
On Monday, John W. Guiteau, of Boston,
brother ofthe assassin, also testified in his
brother was possessed Of the devil and was
morally responsible, but he had changed his
opinion, and now regarded his brother as in
sane. He asserted, however, that his father
was not insane
Several other witnesses testified as to Gui
teaus sanity, relating incidents in his life, and
the prisoner himself was called to the stand
but merely to identify certain letters that he
had written.
AS usual Guiteau continued to amuse the
audience by the comments on the evidence as
it was given There seems to be no way of
checking the unseemly exhibition which Gui,
teau makes. If the Judge were to order his
removal, while the trial is in progress, the fact
would be asserted by his counsel as proof
of Guiteau's insanity and besides, he has an
undoubted right to face his accusers while on
trial. He can not be arrested for contempt
of court, since he is already underarres Al
together, there seems to be difficulty in keep
ing him quiet in court without running against
some principle established to secure a fair and
impartial trial to an accused person. If
Guiteau is as insane as he now appears to be,
and as his friends testify he has been all his
life, many persons will wonder why he was
allowed to go at large so long. 1t would
have been better for himself and everybody
else ifhe had been sent to an insane asylum
years ago.
On Tuesday Guiteau was again placed on
the stand and gave history of his life. He
spoke, it is said, with great volubility and
ease, and sometimes with notable facility ofeX-
preston.
He lived seven years in the Oneida Commu-
nifty and then left and joined the Young Mems
