A TERRIBLE PREDICTION.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 1.-The President
has the following communication from
Prof T. Stone Virgins, LII. D., Astron-
omer Of the Canadian Finance Depart
ment, under date of Ottawa, Nov 27:
con the 23d Of ~ept last announced
through the Canadian press that great
storm would occur in March next; that it
would first be felt in the Northern Paci-
fc; would appear in the Gulf of Mexico
on the night OF the 9th, and being de-
fecied by the Rocky Mountains, would
cross this meridian from the west at noon
Sunday, March II, 1888. No vessel,
whatever her dimensions, will be safe out
Of harbor, and none of small tonnage can
hope 10 survive the tidal wave and fury
Of this tempest AS the wind will blow
from the southeast, the planetary force
will be sufficient to submerge low lands
on the Americas coast. especially those
bordering on the Gulf of Mexico and
those washed by the Gulf stream; while
the air currents for several hundred miles
alOng the east side of the Rocky Noun
tain range, owing to the great atmos.
pheric pressure in these regions, will
spread univ, rsal destruction. The New
England tates will also suffer severely
from wind and floods. No point outside
Of harb0r in the whole area of the At
lautic, especially north Of the Equator,
will be place of safety, for this will be
pre-eminently the greatest storm that has
visited this continent since the days of
your ilIustrious first President. IL view
Of this event, therefore, I take great lib,
erty in representing to your Excellency
the ACCESSIBILITY OF ordering all United
States ships into safe harbors not later
than the 5th Of March. till this storm be
passed"

When liquor dealers catch folks, force
their mouths open and ponr the whisky

nish any one the means Of getting drunk
they are accessory to the crime, and as
accessories they should be punished; but
the man who gets drunk without physical
force is principal in the crime. And 30
long as temperance advocates devote tdeir
attention to furnishing the accessory in

just whers God AMI Nature placed them;
and this is on the drunkard When a

GOVERNMENT LOSSES

The Cincinnati Commercial editOrially
remarks: at might be Of advantage TO
some Of the leaders of the Democratic
party, who are certain of the success of
their Presidential candidate in 1884, 70
study the history Of their party when in
power. and be careful not to put stumb-
ling blocks In their own paths. One OF
the most instructive lessons is found in
the loss to the Government in collection
and disbursement of the public monevs.
Judged by the record, the Republicans
have every reason To believe that the
Democrats will do something to show the
neople that they are not, as party, safe
to be trusted. The record shows that the
loss in the handling OF ofGovernment mon
eys was greater during every Democratic
Administration than that Of its opponents
During Washington ; 4 Administration the
loss on every 81 900 was 1922; during
johH Adams, S2.59 during Jefferson 5,
S2.75; during Mddison's, $4I6; during

HORSES WHICH DRAW HEARsEs.

Everr one who saw the grand cortege
that followed President Garfield to bis
last resting place in Lake View Gene
terry, cannot but remember the twelve
beautiful horses which so proudly drew
the uneral car. While all Of those spir-
tied animals were selected for their par
ticular fitness to share the hOnors Of the
occa sion, two of them-the leaders on the
left-were veterans in the business and
worthy Of special notice Their names
were Colonel and Major, and they be
lnneed to MessrS Hogan and Harris.
But they are dead Two weeks ago they
both breathed their last on the same day
and were taken away in one wagon
Mr. Hogan said to Leader reporter
Yesterday: ''Horses to he thoroughly at
home in our business must be trained to
it, Whatever business they are engaged
in before we get them leaves It's impress
upon them, and the habits then formed
are never broken. We used to have an
old army horse into which the sound of
bugle would seem To infuse new life. He
was being driven in front OF a hearse one
day when an artillery company was ma
neuvering in the streets. A loud bugle
blast caused the old soldier to prick up
his ears, and as the call began to sound
away he went. In less time than it takes
to tell it the horse was right up in the
fight, as he supposed, and the hearsc was
drawn up between two cannon. It was
a strange sight and created considerable
merriment The bugle stopped blowing
and the old fellow was induced, though
reluctantly, to pursue his more peaceful
calling.
1--WE had another horse which had once
participated in races, coming away with
several prizes. One day a German in
our employ was driving him down Eu-
cid avenue, attached to a hearse 1t
was excellent sleighing end many high
steppers were out. Presently a whole
drove Of horses came flying down the
avenue. AS they passed the hearse the
old race-horse, evidently thinking it time
to 90, cut loose and away he flew at the
head of the crowd. 10 vain the German
pulled on the reins; he could not stop
the horse until the rest stopped. He
then came home with proud air, which
seemed to say that he was conscious of
his power-C CteUeyand Leader.

4 writer in the Milwaukee Republic

and cake, and pie, is calculated to whet
the appetite to a ravenOus edge There
is feast IN just the fancy OF it. The
back door opens out to the big foot stone,
and the path leading to the well. There
is a little patch Of fragrant sage and pun
gent thyme; the rows Of current bushes
now striped bare by the early winters
frosty breath; the rugged orchard with
'rlsp. brown leaves quivering in the
cool wind, or rustling over the fading
grass; the broad fields now shorn Of
their wealth Of yerdure, and the szirting
woods all bedecked in beautiful gold and
crimsons. The warm, spicy opors of the
kitchen mingle deliciously with the pure,
tingling breeze, inyigorated from its free
sweep through the baimy forests and sa-
worry plains and the stomach gives guIp

HOW TO MILK.

Much harm is being done by the old
injunction to "milk as rapidly as posi-
ble." Never attempt TO hurry the opera
ton; milk steadiIy and keep the milk
drawn as fast as it will flow naturally
Don't stop to talk or lolter about the
milking, but do not grasp the teas as if
you were going to crush it In v0ur hand
or thrust Your thumbs into the udder as
if bearing your weight on theB. I have
seen those who claim to b@ gooG mixers
who would do this, and have seen thin.
skinned and soft -heshed cows that would
kick under the afflictiOn until il WAS al
most impossible to milk them, although
ordinarily they wers quiet when miked
by those who had MIXED previously.
The operation Of being MIXED should be
pleasant one to the COW, and it will be
if done rightly. One other cause occa-
sionally produces bloody milk, and that
is allowing a cow to go too long before
milking when she has full Cow Of milk.
The pressure and strain of the full milk

delicate structure Of that organ, but this
cause is more apt to produce this trouble,

uddrr with some soft grease, or with ba-
con rind (some people think the latter is
best; they ascribe penetrating power to
the saltpetre in the bacon pickle, or to
the smoke which has favored it) and take
care to milk gently and quietly. Remove
the cause, if you know it, and hope for
better things in iuture.-E,.

THE PROHIBITION QUESTION

Mrs. Jane Sw;shelm has written a CO.
gent, thoughtful letter to the Chicago
Tribune, on the subject of Iowa prohibi-
tion, which is worth reading. The article
it too long to copy entire but we give the
following extracts:
The prohibitionists everywhere have
built theory on foundation of Quick
sand; and in attempting TO raise a per-
manent edifice or it, must resort to many
expedients. The persistence with which
they urge their hobby on old Abolition
lists amounts to personal persecution.
Any one who ever opposed chattelsla-
very must oppose whisky-slavery or stul-
tify himself. No one can oppose whisky
slavery except by prohibition All who
are not with them are opposed to temper
ance and III favor of drunkenness. Those
who worked to pull down the Whig,
that from its ruins they might build an
anti-slaYery party, are bound to work for
the overthrow of the Republican party.
And they never weary of comparing their
movement to that of political abolition
Those who rushed to the rescue of the
chattel slave must rush to the defense of
the whisky slave, or bear the name of
deserter. Remind them that the slavery
OF the one is voluntary, while that of the
other was involuntary, and they say, $50
much the more need for his rescue
This may be true, but does not prove
that one who may have devoted life to
the overthrow Of involuntary servitude is
by this fact bound to run a tilt against
the voluntary article
x
IF If,'Abolitionists had made war on pen
and paper rmakers because pens and paper
were used to write slave laws and bills of
sale, consistency might require them to
attack liquor manufacturers because folks
get drunk On their wares.
No other device of Satan ever was so
we'll calculated to weaken the moral sense
of community as this: that the man, or
