Injection In the Heart.

DR.. Engram, of Buenavista. Ca. vis-
tied negro woman who had a conges-
tive chill. He thought she would die
very soon, but prepared some brandy and
ammonia to inject hypodermically for
temporary relief. When he returned to
the patient she was pulseless, her heart
had ceased beating, she was dead. As
an experiment, he says, with no expec-
tation of the results that followed he
inserted the syringe directly over the
heart, aud pressed it slowly until he
thought that it touched that organ, AMI
injected the brandy and ammonia.
Very soon the heart began beating
feebly, before long the pulse was per-
ceptible. and at last accounts the
woman was getting well.--New York

BY smoking some of the strongest to-
baccos to excess, and so bringing on that
deadly nausea so well known to the
schoolboy with his first cigar, an an
tipathy may be created against tobacco
in the most inveterate smoker. Re-
peated two or three times, tobacco be-
comes intolerable, and the weed is shud-
dered at instead of smoked. If the
smoker is so used to the stronger kinds
Of tobaccos that he can not upset" him

drops Of rum to weed will do wonders

ANNAPOLIS, MD, FRIDAY EVENING NOVEMBER g. 1855


After June "a. and until March 90,
next year-nearly nine months-we
were reduced to the dime novel stand
ard thirteen times; or, in short, there
were thirteen times when we were with
ont anything to eat in our camp Yet.
ia this number of times, so good a
hunter was Toolooah, that we can not
say we lost meal. although several
times we had to wait pretty late for it,
coupled with no small anxiety as to be-
ing able 70 get it at all.
There was one conspicuous example
OF the thirteen which / shall briefly de-
scribe. We were in Erebus bay, off
King Williams land. late in July. with
out scrap of meat to eat for the next
meal. As soon as Toolooah got in with
the sledge from Off the bay ice from our
last camp left in the morning. it was
intended that we should seek some game
inland for our next meal. When he
reached the shore where we were to
camp there was proverbial fog that
could not be cut with knife hanging
over the country. and / thought surely
our next meal was good long ways off.

his Winchester magazine gun over his
shoulders and disappeared in the dense
white clouds hugging the earth, l
thought he would do well If he sue
ceeded in finding his way back, even
without any game. In about three
hours he came into camp with the sad
die of a reindeer on his shoulder, and
reporting that he had killed three, whose
carcassses were brought into camp next
morning. He had used the dogs nose
to find the deer, making wide detour
and cutting across, the wind blowing
from the best grazing ground. where he
expected the animals might be. if in the
country at all. When the dogs nose
went up in the air, shifting and smelling,
he turned squarely against the wind. and
his score of animals told too well how
true his conjectures were. Lient.

The Quickest way.

Mr.. Brown wanted a boy. Charlie Jones
wanted the place. lie was told to put a
screw in the gate hinge.
'Oh, yes, can do that = And he
seized hammer and gave the screw two
or three hard whacks.
"Stopl stop that is not the way.
THAT is the quickest way
But the quickest way is not always the
right way. l want no boy who puts, in
with hammer" Il
There are great many boys who drive
screws with hammer. and great many
places that do not want them for that
reason. There are Charles and Marys
who will learn their lessons the quickest
way instead Of the right way. And il
every thing, whether it is running an er-
rand, sewing q seam, Or as they become
older, doing more important things, they
are not content with the slower but surer
way Of one patient turn after another.

still, of his glorious bounty. We are to

case % cool the ardor Of our compositions

Nay, my brethren. shall we violate the
decencies of humanity by retiring from
the bedside of the dying man when the
physician has said he must die? Do ne
not wet his lips? Do we not bend the
ear to his feeble articulation? Do we
not close bis eyes when his breath has
left him? Do we not decently and
mournfully inter him? What compass
ions, what profound and constant and
unwcaried attentions shall not be render
ed to a sick and sinking soul What
mournful obsequies shall be accounted
too expensive or too arduous to be done
at the grave of an immortal mind?
Who could recount to you the effect and
the nature of that thrill Of emotion
which waves through the heavenly host
when being that bears the very image
of Jehovah has sunk down into endless
night! What lamentations would be
commensurate to calamity in which a
being almost diuine in its powers and
properties Of development, had died?
Shall we forsake such being while he
yet breathes? Shall we give up our
brother in his last extremity?
My brethren, you have been ardent in
temperance reform. Many fine speeches
have been made, many noble efforts have
been put forth to get State help. AS the
State has declined to give you the help
you wanted, why stand ye hero all the
day idle? Where is Christian ardor and
Christian compassion? Where are those
sublime good works that eclipse the fame
of rhetoric, Of eloquence and of the
forum? Where is the Christian heroism
that not only breaches, but goes down
into the tug and warfare of saving men !?
Speeches, resolutions and laws only map
out good work? My brethren, let us
not lean upon the arm of neighbcr to
do good works or wait for slow-moving
governments, nor even for the incest op.
portuuities. Let us seize every offer Of
divine providence. The highest happi-
ness and glory are achieved by saving
fellow men from sin, death aud hell.
Let the Church spring to the task Of
redeeming men, to the high and holy
pleasure of sacrificing pleasure to good
works. Let her soldiers man the breach
against the three great evils of the pres
eut time: Sabbath. breaking, intemper'
ance and covetousness. Let every man
be brave. Our cause is not weak if We
be courageous. Our Captain is Christ,
who, when his cause WAS very weak and
his men few, never asked help from
Cesar. Glorious contest to win, "not by
might nor by power" but by the grace
and the spirit of our Leader.

TEACHERS READING CIRCLES.

Mr.. EDITOR: In many of the educa.
tional journals, notices have lately been
given of the great benefit derived from
the formation of Teachers Reading
Circles" in different States. Some of
these have State organization, and
others have only local circles. In the
Carolina Teacher for Dec, 1885, directions
we're given for forming these local unions.
In various other journals we see notices
of such organizations in Illinois, Indiana,
Ohio, Wisconsin, Iowa, Virginia, Ten
nessee, Kentucky, New York and New
Jersey, where thousands of teachers are
united in pursuing prescribed course of
home study under direction of State
or local Committee. Why may not the
teachers of Anderson County unite N
such all effort? We know that in our
County are many teachers who are de,
sirous Of using all possible means for
self.improvement, aud are anxious to
use all their leisure for this purpose; but
amid the multitude of books for teachers
published, it is puzzling to select the
most useful. With a competent commit
tee to recommend course of home read
ing, or study, much may be accomplished
in leisure moments. It would certainly
be pleasanter and more stimulating to be
united in such an attempt than to work
alone. Let the teachers of our County
think of this, and if the thinking leads
to a wish to try this plan, when we meet
again as Teachers Institute" we may
prepare to begin work in this direction.
Respectfully,
LENoRA HUBBARD.
There is no reason why we may not
have an organization Of this kind in
Anderson County. Let our teachers
think of it. We will submit plans for
completing the organization, at the next
meeting of the Teachers Association.
In this "day of many books" it is in
deed troublesome, as Miss Hubbard sug-
gests, to decide which to read. We cam
not read them ALL let us read the best.
Let competent committee select for US.

tions very excellent for school-room
purposes. Appleton's Reader is very
good for beginners. Few will beat it.
Sainton's is excellent. We are partial
to McGufie's. However, it matters not
very much what Reader you use. AS TO
the merits of the different series of
Readers there is very little difference.
AS soon as child knows one letter from
another, put him to writing. Let him
take any book, or newspaper, and
print the letters until he is perfectly
familiar with the shape of every one.
Let him use his slate, or the black board,
or piece of paper. Teach him to pro.
nounce distinctly and correctly every
syllable he utters. Many children are
allowed to chew up the syllables until
they grind out volume of unintelligible
sounds, aud thus they 60 on through
school days, and in some instances,
through life, without knowing how to
give correct accent, or intelligent ex'
preston. Insist upon precision at the
beginning. Help the child to form the
habit of doing every thing, as nearly as
possible, exactly as it ought to be done.
Succeed in that, and you not only teach
him how to read, but you make man of
the boy. Of course you will attend the
Institute. The Browns stand about first

among the first in the appreciation of
