Shooting Stars.

The number of meteors which fall
to the earth is very great. and to those
unacquainted with the figures will ap-
pear astounding. The number which
may be seen upon an ordinary even
ing, when shooting stars are not nu-
merous, will vary from three to ten
per hour. But single observer sees
only a portion of the heavens, and it
has been estimated that a complete
circuit of the heavens visible from any
point would exhibit an average Of
thirty meteors an hour. For twenty.
four hours we should have 720. But
the porlicn of the earth's atmosphere
intercepted by the horizon of any place
is not large, so that the number of me-
teors which might lie seen over the
whole earth would be more than
10000 ines the number visible at
given point of it's surface. Calling this
mum er 10000, and multiplying by
720, the numuer visible from one Sta
tion in twenty-four hours, we get
100000 as the total number falling
to the earth in one day. But this esti-
mate only covers those which are WIS.,
lille to the naked eye. II is estimated
from the observations Of Pope and
Winnecke that the telescope used by
the latt,r showed iirty-three times as
many meters as are visible to the
naked eye. Multiplying by fifty-three,
we get upward Of 400,OO0,0OO meteors
as the number which the earth en-
counters every twenty four hours.
Great as this number is, it must be re-
m; mbare that an increase of optical
power would render it still greater,
and that the real number Of meteors
entering our atmosphere remains un-
cAlcu atel and perhaps incalculable.
notwithstanding their number, twill
be understood by the reasoning above
that one who looks for them cannot
expect to see very many within a given
time, even wh;n the earth is passing
through Il mtteoric stream.-Boston

Food for Pastures.
An English paper, in commenting
upon the subject, remarks that the
Cheshire dairy farmer, by free use OF
bona manure laid on grass lands,
makes his farm which at tne time, be-
fore the application Of bone manure,
fed only twenty heal of COWS, now
feed forty. In Cheshire two-thirds or
mo.e,. generally three-fourths, of a
dairy farm, are kept in perfect pasture,
thu, remainder in tillage. Its Gairy
farmers are commonly bound to lay
the whole of their manure not on the
arabic, but on the grass land, purchas-
ins. what may be necessary for the
arabic. The chief improvement be-
side drainage consists in the applica-
ton of bone manure. In the milk of
each cow, in its manure, in the bones
of ca h calf reared and sold off farm
parts with as much earthly phosphates
of lime as is contained in half hun
dred weight of bone. dust. Hence the
advantage of returning this mineral
manure by boning grass lands. The
quantity of bones now commonly
given in Cheshire to an imperial acre
of grass land is 1,290-to 1900 weight.
This dressing on pasture land will last
seven or eight years, and on moved
about half that period.
Bruisc.

charge of fetid. Gark-colored, purulent
matter, the strength of the animal
should be supporte lby generous feel
ing and the administration of tonic
remedies. Such stimulating topica,
applications as campho.atel sp rit may
be of eminent service. If Druise be
followed by hard, callous swelling
an embrocation composed of half an
ounce of camphor. one ounce of oil OF
turpentine, and one and half ounces
of soap liniment, should b. rubbe
well into the part twice day; and il
the swelling still continues blister
must be applied. If abscess forms,
proper vent should be male at the
most dependent part for the 'scape OF
the matter; but an abscess should not
be cut into before it has fully ma
tured, which may be known by pit
ting or soft place at some part of the
surface Of the swelling. When the
matter has been let out and the wound
properly cleans ed with warm water,
daily applications IF tincture aloes or
tincture of myrrh generally prove su!fi.

4 Slam.Bang Doctor Dead.

Death has Just carried off old Doctor
Newton, whose sensational cures OF
all sorts of ailments, from lumbago
down to a sore toe, made him a promi-
nent figure among the humbugs Of
Gotham several years ago. When the
doctor was in his glory he had an of
flee in st. Mark Place, near Cooper
Institute. The lame, the halt and the
blind gathered there in crowds every
day. They sometimes blocked the
sidewalk so much that policemen had
trouble clearing way for pedestrians.
The fame of Doctor Newton spread all
over the city and through the surround
ing country. There was nothing that
he could not cure. And he gave no
medicine. He cured everything by
touch. The touch was often a pretty
rough one, such as giving rheumatic
sufferer Il thump between the shoulders
and drive forward, and telling him to
step out. The thump and the drive
generally made the sufferer step out
in some way. In one corner of his Of
fee the doctor had a collection of old
walking-sticks and crutches. These
relics of decrepitude testified to his
skill They had been left behind by
people he had cured, who had no fur
ther use for them. Men and women
crawled into his office by the aid of
sticks and crutches, and came out as
spry as if nothing had ever been the
matter with them. So, at least, ran the
reports that were circulated every day.
And great many believed them. They
reached the newspapers, and reporters
were sent to witness the doctors opera
tons and write them up. The report
ers seemed to be skeptical, and their
reports of what they had seen were not
calculated to make the general public
believe very firmly in DR.. Newton. He
was finally complained of as anuisance
in the neighborhood on account of the
motley crowds he drew, and after a
while he moved away. That was some
twelve or fifteen years ago. He gradu-
ally passed out of notice, and many to
whom his name was once familiar had
forgotten him altogether when the an,
of his death was made a
couple of days ago. His, age was sew
enty-three. Newton called himself a
"healer.'' His whole method was Slam
bang. Any one who got thump from
him between the shoulders was sure to
it month any way.-M y.

stricken when Dorsey was invited to as
sumo the whole responsibility and al
most absolute powers in the conduct OF
that remarkable campaign. 1t is fact
that after the Fifth Avenue conference
there was sudden revival of confidence
on the part of leading Republicans with
out any apparent reason for it, and that
Immediately after, with as little appar-
ent reason, there was a sudden change
in the political complexion of Indiana.
1t is a fact that Garfield wrote to his
"dear Hubbell " that he hoped Brady
was doing well in the departments, and
looked to his unusual resources for
assistance in his embarrassment. 1t is
fact that dinner was given to Dor
SLY in New York, after the election, to
acknowledge his skill as a dispenser of
"soap," to admit that he saved Indiana
with money, and leading Republicans,
Garfield among the number, were either
present or sent their profound acknowl-
edgments of the worth and value OF
Mr.. Dorsey in the campaign. When
we refresh our minds with all these
facts we hardly need the testimony OF
Dorsey or any one else to fill out the
story. Instead of there being any i'm
probability about the latter's state
ment, it fits the established truth like it,
complement 1t is the missing half OF
torn leaf. The Jay Gould and STAN
ley Matthews incident is not dependent
upon Dorsey for SubstantiatiOn. Why
has not the Tribune something to say
about that part of it? Its editor knows
considerable about it, or is said to. at
least We believe now as we believed
at the time that the Republican cam
paign of 1880 was one of the blacklist,
most corrupt and most desperate con-
spiracies of the century. If new light
can be thrown upon the details history
demands the revelation, and the testi-
mony of the man who has turned peo-
pies evidence becomes valuable, like
all evidence of that kind, only as it
harmonizes with and strengthens facts
already known. Post.

The Dorsey Exposures.

The reception of the late expose of
the secrets of the Republican campaign
of 1880 is just about what we supposed
it would be on the part of the Repub-
lican journals. They are violently an
CRY and declare the whole thing tissue
of falsehoodS, fabricated by Dorsey's
well-known ingenuity in spirit of re-
venge and desperate malice. That is
one wing of their defense. or rather
apology for defense. The other is an
assumption ofgrief and Indignation that
any such charge or charges should now
be brought, when the man against whom
they are mainly directed is no longer
alive to defend himself. We are sorry
that they are so shocked by the bad
taste of those who give these charges to
the public, and if only the individual
was concerned we should join them in
their desire to throw the mantle of
charitable silence over the memory of
the dead. But that is not the point.
History never admits Il mol pros. What
ever the candidate of the Republican
party may have done in 1880 he did to
a considerable extent in the name of
that party and with the knowledge and
consent, if notapproval, of many of the
leading men in it. We will admit that
so far as Dorsey's statements stand
alone, they must be accepted with the
greatest caution, if not suspicion. But,
On the other hand, it will not do to say
that they are falsehoods simply because
Of a general impression that Dorsey is
entirely capable of falsehood. If it is
it is remarkably ingenious
and workmanlike. What Dorsey has
said merely supplies the connection to
certain detached facts with which the
public is acquainted Independently of
The recent Secretary of the Republican
Committee. 1t is fact that Dorsey
Knew more about the whole arrange
nent of WAYS and means in the cam
oaigp of 1880 than any other man. 1t
