Experiments of Interest to Sufferers from
the Disease

Experiments of Interest to Sufferers from
the Disease.
Prof. Ebstein, of the University of Got
tingen, gave an account, at the recent
German medical congress, held at Wies-
baden, of series of labors that will inter-
est many sufferer. Many as are the the
cries that have been proposed as to the
cause of govt and the best mode of treat
ing it, saving the isolated facts of the
uric acid in the blood of equity patients, of
the deposition of urates in the various It's
sues in which the disease is in progress
and of the development of local
nodosities, medical science has I'M
til now actually possessed no exact
experimental information on the subject.
DR.: Ebstein discovered method of pro-
ducing govt in the inferior animals, and
applying his discovery to birds, took the
opportunity to study the origin, cause and
gradations of the disease in more careful
and exhaustive manner than any of his
predecessors in the physiological labora-
tory at Gottingen. He found, in the course
of his experiments, that the first step in
development of a equity nodosity was the

the blood, of a local center of tissue
destruction. This occurred prior to the
disposition of the salts of uric acid, always
present at such centers of disease and was
absolutely the first discoverable step in the
progress of the malady. DR.. Ebstein found
in his equity birds foci of nocrotic tissue
in the cartilages, in the kidneys, joints,
tendons, and connective structures. After
the local destruction of tissue has pro-
ceeded to given extent it is followed by a
stage of secondary Inflammation which
differs in its description, and in the alb
normal products it creates, according to
the nature of the tissue in which it occurs,
and thus the nodosities of govt, differing
In structure from each other, but identical
in cause and origin, are gradually built
up. By injections of uric acid dissolved
in solution of phosphate of soda,
or merely held in suspension in water,
DR.. Ebstein declares it possible to
produce local centers of govt in
any animal, and this direct experiment. he
regards as conclusive as to the primary
agency of the acid in the formenting series
of phenomena. Clear as this elucidation
of the subject is, SO far as concerns the
origin of the disease, the German pro-
fessor has nothing to add to our present
information as to it's treatment, and leaves
the grouty patient in his sutferings to get
what consolation he can from the mere act
of knowing why he suffers. Of course, it
is consolatory when one is writhing in the
throes of the equity paroxysm to know that
similay paroxysm can be produced in q

wants had ceased.
The anti-slavery literature that had its
origin the days of human chattel servitude
is extremely distasteful to the ex-slave-
holders of the present day. "Uncle Toms
Cabin" is an especial eye-sore. The wish
is to have it banished from the realm of
current, living literature. And we'll they
may vince, for that work did more to
open the eyes of the nation and the world
to the enormities of American slavery, than
any other, or all other influences combined.
tcontributedan influence to raise up pha-
lanx of ''Free state men, ITO resist the spread
of slavery into the territories when the
missouri compromise was repealed, and
whose action secured Kansas to freedom.
AS a sample of the present state of mind
among class of the ex-oppressors, we
give the following from the Richmond
State, one of the leading journals of Vir-
ginia: "It is time that all such stuff as
this Uncle Toms Cabin, the Octoroon,
Paul and Virginia, and everything that is
calculated to revive the worst features Of
African slavery wherever it prevailed or.
still prevails, should be excluded from our
stage, if not from our general literature,
secular and religious, Slavery has passed
away and is forever gone. There is no
possibility of its revival, and therefore, as
political or moral agent in advancing
civilization, these have lost their uses.
Every allusion to it is out of place, and
only serves to bring up almost forgotten
memories, that for the interests of peace
and the good of the world should
be allowed to rest. Without touching on
the impudence and bad taste, as we'll al
the impudence of bringing the slave
hunting bloodhounds upon stage in g
Virginia city to insult people whose
fathers are accused by the fanatics of the
North and the abolitionists of England of
such cruel practices, we demand, in the
interests of a reconciled country, that all
this machinery, invented in the years Of
hate and under the political excitement Of
the time, when everything that was bat
was believed against us, be relegated tt
that unmonumented tomb, wherein all the
evil passions of the past lie buried, VIZ
trust, forever" This irascible ''fire-eater'
cannot silence the Nemesis of history. Tit
black and damning story of American
tory endures.

WHEN living, neglected, when dead, hon
ored, may be written of many a man of
prominence. And human nature has had
this development in all ages. Homer, poor
and blind, wandered through the cities of
Greece, reciting his immortal poem, the
Had, thereby gaining a precarious exis-
tence. When he died, opulent cities
claimed him as a native born citizen. This
led some one to fashion into biting sar
casm the following:
''Seven wealthy towns contend for Homer.

Through which the living Homer begged his
bread"
An instance, similar i'll kind occurred
during the past year, somewhere in the
Northwest. A once prominent and wealthy
citizen in his later years fell into circum-
stances of misfortune and poverty. He
had been a public spirited citizen, and
generous benefactor to the community.
In the decrepitude of age, he became re-
duced to positive want, and must have suf-
fered for the very necessaries of life had
not few thoughtful friends looked after
him in his distress. But the great public

Within the last year the women of the
United States have given the magnificent
sum of 100000 for the spread of the
GOSPEL in heather lands. OF this amount
the Presbyterians gave nearly $2O0,00O;
the Baptists, $156,000; the Congregation
alists, 100000; the Northern Methodists,

church South, $25,110.
The number of foreign mission stations
of the Protestant Episcopal church is 148,
thirty-four of which are in Western Africa,
thirty one in China, fifteen in Japan, one
IN Greece, fourteen in Hayti and fifty

the members of the church for $128, 376.40

A philanthropic quack has just died in
Cincinnati. He was an educated physi-
clan named Kerr, but his only medicine
was a cure-all which he called "the Reno
vator." He made it in vast quantities,
but only sold enough to afford him bare
living, giving the most of 1t away to the
poor. 1t is said to have been harmless
and beneficial tonic and did injury only
when relied upon in dangerous diseases.

Babies Welded.

One of the most youthful couples that
were ever married in Kenton County,
KY, were joined in wedlOck recently
The groom is George F. KYLE. ared
fourteen years, son Of George f. KYLE,
and Lizzie May Hollingshead, aged thir-
teen years. They were married at the
residence of the grOOm's parents, near
South COvingtOn. in the presence Of a
few of their most intimate friends The
bride is an orphan, and in order to OBJ
tain a license to wed, the grOom's faith
er qualified as her guardian and he then
consented to the issuing of the license
and gave his assent to the marriage
The combined ages of the twain Is only
a few years more than the lawful matri-
mOnial age in the grand old common
wealth. The bride is not a vOluptuous
looking girl, and, in fact, resembled a
child that had not passed the spanking
age, and the groom IS not much her
superior in this respect. The bride was
mOdeStlv and neatly attired. and re-
sembled little girl that was dressing
for her first attendance at a children
party. The twain were evidently quite
fond of each other. There was none of
that style of love there is generally dis

ister pronounced them man and wife
they faced each other for moment,
and suddenly the childish groom bash

was a rather strange sight, and looked
more like a children's mock marriage
than a solemn reality. The couple are
not wealthy. and their parents are only

USEFUL AND SUGGESTIVE.

Kerosene will make your tea-kettle
as bright as new. Saturate a wooden
rag and rub with it. 1t viii also re-
move stains from the clean vanished
furniture.
1t is well to give horses a double
amount of feed on the evening preced-
ing long journey, and only half ra-
tons of grain or little hay on the
morning of starting.
Remember to give the pigs little
charcoal occasionally. 1t corrects acid
ity of the stomach and insures a healthy
condition. If it is not easy to procure
charcoal give charred cinders of stove
coal.
The cooking and canning of rab-
bits IS one of the industries of Austria
liza. Here is hint which should be
acted upon in those sections of country
where rabbits are so plentiful as to be-
come 3 nuisance. A can of cooked
rabbit in the summer time would alter
nate very nicely with picked pork and
corned beef
The staining of bricks red is effect
ed by melting one ounce of glue in a
gallon of water, then adding a piece of
alum as large as an egg, one-half pound

creased by using more red or brown.
For coloring black, heat the bricks and
dip in fluid asphaltum or in a hot mix

Beat together the yelks Of three eggs,
one cup of sugar, juice of one lemon;
stir it into the gela tine and milk and
let 1t just come to a boil, in a farina

set near the ice to cool. Flavor with

"A good way to cover a straight
backed chair which is in use in the
common sitting-room is to cut piece
of cretonne the exact size of the back;
hem it with a narrow hem, and then
with a sharp steel crochet needle put on
a narrow border of worsted; pin this to
the chair-back with long black-headed
pins. This is useful and pretty COW
ering, and is easily removed and kept
in place also.
Here is a suggestion of value for a
small family, say of two persons. Bake
a cake in long tin, cut it in two parts,
and put in any filling you choose. You
will have two nice layers, and the cake
will probably all be eaten before it is
too dry to be enjoyed. A good recipe
for this cake is: the whites of two eggs,
one cup of white sugar, half a cup Of
milk or water, one cup and half of
flour, half teaspoonful of baking pow
der. If made with care, the butter and
sugar beaten to a cream, and as much
pains taken as if it were an expensive
cake, this will be delicious.

How to Feed Stock.

The Massachusetts, Plougbn7an says
that some farmers have an idea that
any boy can feed stock as well as a
man. but the more observing believe
that to feed stock so as to secure the
best condition on the smallest amount
of fodder, requires quite as much skill
as any operation on the farm, and il Is a
work which requires both study and
practice; study to learn the nature and
requirements of each class Of animals.
and the nutritiye qualities Of each kind
Of food; practical experience so that the
particular wants Of each animal in ev-
cry class may be thoroughly understood.
While the farmer should endeavor to
have his boys feed the stock a portion
of the time, he should always be with
them to give directions and to see that
the work is properly done. The knowl-
edge Of how to make cattle eat up the
coarser fodder without waste, is fully
possessed by some farmers, while 9th
ers do not even know how 10 make
them eat up clean the best of hay, but
keep large quantities before them the
most Of the time. For economy there
IS nothing ike keeping a clean crib,
giving cattle only as much as they will
at once eat up clean. This Will apply to
all farm animals IS well rs cattle.

Hunting With a Cannon in AIgiers.

The Courier de Bo75e gives the de-
tails of an extraordinary hunt with a
cannon which has taken place upon
Lake Fezzara. Having resolved to hunt
waterfowl with a breech-lOading cannon
carrying four thousand yards, Lord
Paget, Lieutenant-General and gentle
man groom to her Majesty Queen Vic
toria," had transported by about eighty
Arabs a steam-launch, which was
launched in the lake. Once in the
water, the cannon turned on pivot in
stalled in the bow Of the launch, loaded
with small shot, and worked by two
gunners from the noble Lords yacht
Santa Maria, the modern Nimrods pre-
pared to kill the large flOcks of birds
which abound in that region. Here is
the account as given by the Courier de
Bone: Soon, says that journal, - after
having let pass bands of small water
fowl, such as teal, grebe, plongers, gea
ducks etc, we saw a large flock of wild
geese. The launch having eased up a
little, the cannon was pointed to the
center OF the flock, at signal given by
Lord Paget. A loud defamation. which
made the mountain echo, was heard.
and the air was Obscured bv the flight Of
these large birds. who for the first time
found themselves troubled in their re-
treat. The surface of the lake was COW
cred with geese, famingo, etc, Tapping
about. pIunging and irving in all haste
to escape Unfortunately the spOrtsmen
had left their dogs on board the Santa
Maria, and it was with difficulty that
they could gather one-tenth Of the vic
Tins. They got sufficient, nevertheless,
to fill the boat.
