and products. With the revival of letters,
the invention of printing, and the Re-
formation, new spirit took possession of
mems minds, and it has gained such an
ascendency, that relapse into the bar
barism of former times seems placed be-
yond the bounds of credibility. That in
deed is contingency so remote that, in
the face of the present state of science,
literature, and art, the very mention of it
may provoke a smile. The danger of
these last days seems to lie rather in the
direction of misapplication of energy than
in that of stagnation."
A writer in the Atlanta Constitution
thus states his opinion as to darkies and
mules:
at always did seem like there was kind OF
confidential relation between niggers and mules,
sort of treaty of peace and equality, for there
is no other animal can stand the darky and there
is no other human can get along in peace with q
mule. When they are alone together in big
field with long rows the darkey talks to him all
along the line and the mule listens in respectful
silence, but if two darkes are ploughing together
they talk to one another and the mules are snub
bed"
And the Milwaukee Sun thus describes
parrot in that city, which has more sense
than some other two-legged creatures,
inasmuch as it eschewed liquor after one
experience of drunk:
"a gentleman on the south side has parrot
that is almost human. 1t will drink beer, and
Knows when it has enough, and will not touch
any more, which is better than many "grown
people do. The parrot, when it first began to
take beer, got full, and those who saw it say the
parrot was just like man. First it was funny
and laughed at everything, and wanted to have b
high old time. Then it began to quiet down and
would sit On the perch and pay no attention to
anything that was said, appearing to be sea-sick.
And the next morning its feathers all seemed to
pull, and the parrot had headache. Its master
offered it some beer that morning but the poor
bird looked at him as much rs to say: Haven't
you got any soda water?" The bird has sworn
off, and is great favorite, being one of the most
intellectual and versatile parrots in the city"

Astonishing Case of Fatality.

PHILADELPHIA, April e.-An astonish-
ing case of fatality, in which three sisters
died within half an hour, was reported to
the Coroner to-day. About 10 o'clock
last night Mrs. Winsmore went to her
bedroom to retire tor the night, when she
heard noise in her sisters room. Upon
reaching her room Mrs. Winsmore found
Mrs. Watson in dying condition. Med
ical assistance was promptly summoned,
and Mrs. Smith was also sent for. The
ply ysicians found Mrs. Watson in coma.
tose condition and administered ammonia,
but she did not recover, and expired in a
few minutes. Before they had recovered
from their astonishment Mrs. Winsmore
was overcome and tell to the floor in an
unconscious state and in ten minutes she
died; and ten minutes later Mrs. Smith,
the third sister, was corpse. All are
supposed to have died from natural causes.

A TRAIN FROZEN IN.-Winnepeg.
Man., April GA Canadian Pacific train
with 500 emigrants ls frozen in three
miles from the nearest source of supply.
Provisions are being carried to it by a re-
lief train.~ 1t will be three or four days
before the train can be got out. Capt.
Kirwan, who returned partly on foot and
partly by sleigh, says man is dying on
the train and that it is piteous to hear the
little children crying for bread. During
the night barrel of biscuit and one
cheese were discovered on board and were
dealt out, so there is no danger OF starva.
tions but there is of the fuel and lights
giving out.

LEG1sLATING AGAINST LoBBYIsTs.-A
good move was made by Congressman
Mills of Texas, who introduced reso1u-
tion amendatory of the rules governing
the privileges OF the floor of the House.
1t appears that legion of ex-Congress-
men have taken possession of the House
corridors and cloak rooms this session as
lobby agents for various schemes and
measures, notably the Eads Ship Railway
bill, and the fact has become apparent
that they have been so employed mainly
because they possessed the privileges Of
the floor. This has given rise to such
abuse of privilege that upon complaint
made, effort is being made to exclude ex.
members. While this proposition is likely
to provoke acrimony, it is clear that if ex
members openly violate their pledge, no,
to be interested in or to influence legisla
ton, they must take the consequences.

~ A few days ago the ferryman at
NeaPs Ferry, on the Chattahoochie River,
Ga, while putting some passengers over
in his fiat, discovered box floating down
the river. As soon as the box was dis
covered, and after the fat had landed its
passengers, the ferryman seized bateau
and made way to the box, which he soon
overhauled. On reaching out his hand to
grasp it, he was astounded to find that it
contained sweet little babe, which raised
its head and smiled at it's rescuer. It was
a white child, we'll dressed with plenty of
good clothing besides Some old people
who live in the neighborhood have taken

AN ECONOMICAL ENGINR.-A smokeless
and sparkless locomotive was tested on
Saturday afternoon on the Fitchburg
Railroad. The run was to Waltham and
back, distance of twenty miles, with a
consumption of 27s pounds of Cumberland
coal for the round trip. The average con-
sumption of coal for a twenty-miIe trip
with an ordinary engine is about 1000
pounds, thus showing very large saving
in fuel, besides the stopping of a long-feit
nuisance in railroad traveling-smoke and
cinders.-B0stOn transcript.

a. A number of St. Louis physicians
are of opinion that smallpox and other
contagious diseases are transmitted from
one section of the country to another by
the sleeping coaches on railway trains.
Passengers who use sleeping cars, says
DIR. Dorsett, of that city, should exercise
every precaution to inhale as much fresh
air as possible, keep their windows up at
every opportunity, get out of the car and
walk about as much as possible. They
should also avoid, as much as practicable,
mixing around in promiscuous company,
and should sit up as near as possible to the
forward end of the car.

CHASED BY WILD BoAR.-Some por-
tions of Watauga are infested with wild
boars as fierce as those of the Black For
est. Mr. Bernhardt, of this place, joined
in the chase of one of these animals last
week, and the dogs had driven it under q
ledge of rocks, when it turned on it's pur-
suers and "Barny" was forced to take re-
fu9e on the top Of boulder. The wild
boar followed and was scrambling up the
rock displaying monstrous set of tusks,
when shots from Mr.. Bernhardt's gun
caused it to retreat to the ivy jungles
where it escaped.-Lenoir Topic.

az Two new counterfeit coins that
are proof to the ordinary tests are silver

dollar is faultlessly executed, and the sill

SOME SPLENDID WHEAT.-Mr. W. B.
