FLASHES FROM CHARLESTON.
A Stir over the Alleged Failure of a
Well Known Sa Vannah House.

CHARLESTON, s. c., September S.-Some
sensation was created here by the reception
of the news, published in several of the New
York papers, yesterday, of the alleged fail
ure of Octavus Cohen d Co., of Savannah,
and of the firm of A. Norden & Co., of this
city, who, it was stated, were members of
the fast named firm.
The news was credited in the New York
paper to dispatch to Bradstreet's from their
agent at Savannah. Inquiry here developed
had withdrawn from the firm of Octavus
Cohen & Co. about year ago, and that
they are consequently not at all involved in
the alleged failure of the last named firm.

tanned authoritatively that Doctors Rey-
burn, Barnes and Woodward had signed
official bulletins of the Presidents case for
the last time, having, Immediately after
the issuance of the evening bulletin, with
drawn from the conference of attending
surgeons. Before leaving Washington, the
President asked his wife IL all the attending
surgeons we're going along. Mrs. Garfield
said she presumed they were. The Presi-
dent said he did not see why that was
necessary. A further discussion was
had, and the result was the withdrawal
of the gentlemen named. DR.. Bliss stated
that there was no cause for the retirement OF
Surgeons Barnes, Woodward and Reyburn
beyond the fact that it was the desire or
whim of a verg sick man, and as the Presi
dent had entertained the idea that fewer
number of physicians could manage his
case as well as the number heretofore en-
gagged, it was desired by Mrs. Garfield that
his wishes be complied with. The doctor
stated further that the best Of feeling pre-
vailed among the entire corps OF surgeons,
and that the retirement of Doctors Reyburn,
Woodward and Barnes would not in any
manner affect the intimacy which has
grown up between them since the President
was shot.

Eating and Dyspepsia.

1t is an old German adage
that more people dig their own
graves with their teeth. than
with spades" and verify it would
seem so, if we could look at the
immense number of dyspeptics,
rheumatic and equity individuals,
creeping through life in pain
and wretchedness. Yet is is
impossible to induce even think
ing people to control their ap-
petites, and to eat such things
and at such times, as nature
shows them is necessary and
right. DIR. Hall declares un-
hesitatingly that it is wrong to
eat without an appetite; for it
shows there is no gastric juice
in the stomach, and that nature
does not need food, and not
needing it, there being no fluid
to receive and act upon it, it re-
mains there only to purify, the
very thought of which should
be sufficient to deter any man
from eating without an appetite
to the remainder of his life. II
a tonic is taken to whet the ap-
petite, if is a mistaken course,
for its only result is to cause
one to eat when already an
amount has been eaten beyond
what the gastric juice is able to
prepare. The object to be OBJ
tanned is a large supply Of gas
trio juice; whatever fails to ac-
complish that essential object,
fails to have any tendency to-
wards the cure of dyspeptic
diseases. The formation Of gas
trio juice is directly proportion
ed to the wear and tear of the
system, which is to be the means
of supplying, and this wear and
tear can only take place
as the result of exercise. The
efficient remedy for dyspeptics
work outdoor work = benef-
cial and successful in direct
proportion as it is agreeable,
interesting and profitable.

As a general rule. evergreens
please best when they are close
and densely clothed with fol-
iage. If one has thin, open
trees, they can be made into
the most enviable specimen by
a judicious use of the knife. As
soon as frost has probably de-
parted is an excellent time TO
do this. Cut back the growth
of the past year to within a few
inches of where it started from.
1t is very essential that the lead
er be shortened. A new one
will push and generally grow
straight; if not a little art will
help if. Several leaders will
come out sometimes, but of
course, all must be sprouted
off but one. By this simple
treatment any delapidated old
scrub may be brought to per-
lection of beauty, if it has not
lost its lower branches; when, of
course. it is beyond grace to re-
store.

Have aPurpose.

Carlyle once asked an Edin-
burg student what he was study
ing for. The youth replied that
he had not quite made up his
mind In a moment there was
a sudden fash in the old Scotch
mans eye, a sudden pulling
down of the shaggy eyebrows,
and the stern face grew sterner
as he said: "The man without
a purpose in life is like ship
without a ruddcr; a waif, a mere
nothing, a no man. Have a
purpose in life, if it is only to
kill and divide and sell oxen
well; but have a purpose; and
having it, throw such strength
Of mind and muscle into your
work as God has given you"

Manuring Orchards.

Those who own orchards
over twelve years or more of
age, will find a great advantage
in applying a moderate top
dressing of old or fresh manure.
1t seems to have an almost mag
ical effect on the fruit. The
trees will be more likely to bear
every year; they will give hoav-
Ter crops,s.and the fruit will be
finer. If there is no manure to
apply, it will do nearly as well
to draw out in winter, and
spread over the ground such
manure as accumulates from
the stabbed animals. On the
first thaw or rain the earth will
absorb all the soluble or wash
ed portions. The mistake should
be avoided of placing the ma
nure in heaps at the foot of the
foot OF the trunks, or in small
circles. Trees only twelve years
old, if they have made a fair
growth, have already covered
the whole ground with the net
work of their roots beneath the
surface. Wood ashes are al
ways useful.

In France, when a horse has
reached the age of twenty or
thirty, it is designed for a chemi-
cal factory; it is first relieved of
its hair, which serves to stuff
cushions and saddles; then it is
skinned the hoofs serve to
make combs. Next, the carcass
is placed in a cylinder ard cook
ed by steam, at a pressure of
three atmospheres; a cock is
opened, which allows the grease
to be run off; then the remains
are cut up, the leg bones are
sold to make knife handles, etcS
and the coarser of the ribs, the
head, ETC., are converted into
animal black and glue. The
first are calcined in cylinders,
and the vapors when condensed
form the chief source of carbon
ate of ammonia which constitu-
ties the base of nearly all
ammoniacal salts. There is an
animal oil yielded which makes
a capital insecticide and YER
mifuge. To make glue, the
bones are dissolved in muriatic
acid, which takes away the
soft residue, retaining the shape
of the bone, dissolved in boiling
water, cast into squares, and
dried on nets. The phosphate
of lime, acted upon by sulphur
ric acid and calcined with car
bon, produces phosphorus for
lucifer matches. The remain
ing flesh is distilled to obtain
the carbonate of ammonia the
resulting mass is pounded up
with potash, then mixed with
old nails and old iron of every
description /; the whole is calcin-
ed and yields magnificent yell
low crystals, prussiate ofpotash,
with which tissues are dyed a
Prussian blue, and iron trans
ferred into steel; it also forms
the basis Of cyanide of potas-
stun and prussic acid, the two
most terrific poisons known in
chemistry.
