A BUZZARD WITH A BELL ON.

The belled buzzard, whose Aight over
western counties of Georgia has aroused
80 much superstitious fear among the
igorant whites and blacks, passed over
field on the 9th ultimo at Taylorsville,
where four men were blowing. One of
them, negro, quit work at once, and
said the bird was warning the people Of
another cyclone to which hundreds Of
people would be killed.
The story Of the celebrated bird is an
interesting one. Nearly two years ago it
was . pet in barnyard Of farmer
named Freeman in Pauldiug county.
One of his children one day attached
sheep bell to the birds foot and the tink-
ling sound so scared it that it immedi'
ately few away. The first night out it
alighted on the roof Of negro cabin in
Heard county. One Of the inmates went
out to ascertain the cause Of the bell.
ringing, and immediately the buzzard
rose from its perch and few away. The
night was clear and cold, and as the in.
mates rushed out and beheld great
black object and heard the tinkling Of the
belle hundreds Of feet in the air, great
fear seized them. They all took to their
knees under the impression that the end
of the world was at hand. Ever since
then the bird has pursued its migratious
way through the State, arousing the fears
Of the superstitious, who regard its visits
as omens Of evil. The negroes and many
whites, too, along the tracks of the late
storm insist that they heard the fateful
bell before the terrible wrath Of the wind
had come upon them.
In 1867 q buzsard was similarly bellet
in Putnam county, and up till 1880
when his presence was last reported II
Greene county, he was vouched for .
having visited points ~ far west ~ Me
ridian, Mississippi, and several northern
counties Of Tennessee.

THE INN OF THE BRASS BULL.

The old inn known as the Brass
Bull at Thompson, was burned last
week. 1t was the Oldest house in Wind
ham county, large, wood-colored edihce
Of the "lean.to" period, which greatly
antedated the Revolution, having been
built in ITO. Over the door was min.
iature bull Of old.fashioned hammered
brass. which was also swallowed up in
the flames. In the days Of the then
great New York, Hartford and Boston
turnpike it was change station for the
stage horses, and when the stage-route
vanished at the approach Of the railroads
it feebly held its own as asummer resort.
1t had little diamond window-panes.
wide freplaces and outer doors cut in
halves, after the original New England
style, which suffered the lower part Of
the door to be used as breastwork
against the onslaught of the Indians.
From its situation, on the apex Of Wash.

view in the different States Of Massachu.
sets, Rhode Island, and even across
Connecticut to the blue line made on the
southern horizon by Long Island, in New
York State, was to be gained.
The most famous of local traditions
have sprung from this old house. II
was cut up in all sorts and numbers Of
odd.shaped rooms, and the fire on the
kitchen hearth burned for more than one
hundred years. In fact, this was thu
source Of the old buildings ruin, for thu
continual heating Of the stone.work il

burst out and consumed the structure

Tilden says he don't want it.

The tendency Of the wives Of crippled
men to have twins is very curious
physiological fact. The late General j.
b. Hood had = leg of nearly at the joint,
and An arm 80 shattered a. to be useless.
In Ave years he was the father Of twins
three times, and left nine children.
General and Ex-Governor Francis T,
Nichols, who in the late war lost an arm
and leg, both cut off near the body,
has had the same luck of twins, and

same sort. There must be- something

accompanied him on points, and as
they left the hotel the stranger asked:
"By the way, who owns this hotel?'
"Why, the Standard Oil Company
was the reply.
The same question was asked about
the opera-house, toll bridge, a week
ly newspaper, and a market house,
and the same replies were received.
''ls there anything in this town on
which the Standard Gil Company
hasn't got it's clutch?" finally asked
the stranger.
t,Why, yes; there's the Baptist
Church."
And how does it happen that the
company missed it?"

AN Eastern paper says that from
Their injurious effects on furniture,
kerosene and hot brine should not be
used except where one is driven to
desperation. Bed-cords can be scald-
eo IN brine and also hot brine applied
where 1t will not injure the varnish.
Elsewhere, dry salt can be used with
good effect. Salt is very effectual
remedy, and as far as it can be appli-
ea may be relied on. The bedding
should be inspected during the clear
ing process, but the wood of the bed
stead and building is the natural hab-
,'a'ion OF the bugs, and they will not
,ong remain in the bedding when the
'"'i'iture and finis are free from them.
