Does Gold Grows

Years ago I wrote and published in a

undertook to prove that gold grows.
grows the same as grain or anything else.
reckon / did my work crudely, not
knowing anything about chemistry or
even the ordinary terms of expression
about such matters, and so my earnest
and entirely correct sketch was torn all
to pieces and laughed to scorn.
Well, have at last found positive
proof of my general statement right here
in these mountains by the Pacific sea.
Briefly and simply, have found piece
of petri6ed wood with little vein or
thread of gold in it. How did that gold
get into this piece of wood? Was it
placed there by the finger of God on the
morning of creation, as men have claimed
was the case with gold found in the veins
of the mountains? Nonsense
Gold grows! Certain conditions of the
air, or certain combinations of the earth
and air and water, and whatever chemi.
calls may be requied, and then rock or
piece of quartz or petrifed tree, for the
gold to grow in, and there is young gold
cropl Of course gold grows slowly.
Centuries upon centuries it may he, are
required to make the least sign of growth.
But it grows just as asserted years ago !:
and here at last I hold in my hand such
testimony as no man in this world will
be rash enough to question a portion of
a petrifed tree with o thread of gold in
it.-Joaquia Miller.

A Strange Story.

CHATTANOOGA, August TO- A ro-
nance almost without parallel came to
light in this city to-day, and so intricate.
" is the plot interviewer that it would
make truth appear stranger than fiction.
Thirty years ago there resided near this
city, then a struggling village, James
Starns, a sturdy young farmer, with his
wife and two little boys. In 1854 Starns
concluded to try his fortune in the West;
and went to California. A month after,
having found settlement, he sent his
wife money with which to join him.
Mrs. Starns wrote, saying she would
start in two months, but at the end of
that time she had received no reply.
Starns wrote letter after letter to his wife
and relatives, and she wrote to him, but
neither ever received word of the
other.
Ten years afterwards Starns sent his
wife $500, but the money went back to
him, as no one called for it. By this
time both the husband and wife supposed
each other were dead. Mr.. Starns went
to Michigan, and from thence to Wiscon-
sin, where, six years ago, he married the
daught of wealthy farmer. By some
strange fate he drifted to Chattanooga
last week. Not even the oldest inhabi.
tant remembered him, and he could find
no trace Of any of his relatives. :,
To- day he learned that family named
Starns resided near the city, and pro.
curing carriage, took bis wife 10 ascer.
tain whether or not they were his rela.
tives. Arriving at the house Starns was
horrifed to find the aged, white haired
lady who received him was no other than
his first wife, and he realized the fact
that be had two wives. An explanation
followed and the two wives we're intro
duced, but each exhibited marked cold.
ness. The parties refused to talk, and it
is not known what they will do.

WONDERFUL ULCERS.

ATLANTA, ga, June 8, 1850.
In 1878 there came on my hand what
was thought to bs carbuncle, which ran
its course several months, broke, and
finally healed. The next spring knots,
or nodes, came on my arms, which were
thought to be rheumatic, and took gal.
Ions of medicine from the best physicians
in Cuthbert, Ga, where then resided.
About this time my left limb below the
knee commenced swelling at fearful
rate, and finally came to a head and
broke. Both arms were sore, and I could
hardly bear my weight standing, and
hardly know how / managed to I've
through it all. About this time we
moved from Cuthbert to Atlanta. I
began to despair of ever getting we'll
the sore on my limb was regular eating

two inches In width, seeming to be down

In short time I got my son to get me

He Defled the Deity.

The Midaletoscn (M ~ Argus says
A gentleman residing in Middletown,
who was visited in Sullivan County last
week, was attracted by eight headstones
in little grass grown cemetery, near
Fallsburgh, all of which stood in row
and were exactly alike. He got out of
his wagon to look at them, and found
that they were all children of a we'll
known physician, and that all were
grown when stricken down, and that the
dates on the headstones showed that the
first one died November %, 1856, and the
other seven between that date and Del
cember Is, following, or that the entire
family of eight children had died within
eight weeks.
When speaking of the matter to friends
that day, he was told the history of the
case, which is regarded in that neighbor-
hood as visitation of Providence in
punishment for defiance OF the, Deity.
The story as told is that in 1861 there
was scourge Of diptheria in that neigh
borhood, and the physician was kept busy
treating patients suffering from that dis.
ease. He was very successful, and gained
such confidence in his skill that he began
to boast that he could cure any case, and
went so far that he "defied God Almighty
to produce case of diptheria he could
not cure." In less than week bis
youngest child was seized with the dis.
ease, and although he exercised his skill
to the utmost, having not only profession
al pride but fathers love to urge him
to do his best, his boy grew worse and
died. One after another his children
sickened and died, until all were gone
and laid side by side in the little grave.
yard near Fallsburgh. But one child
was left, married daughter, but in q
few weeks she, too, was stricken down and
became a victim to the dread disease.

Tobacco and Its Virtues.

In spite of all that has been said
against 1t by fervid auti-tobacconists,
pure tobacco is an excellent remedial
agent; but it must be absolutely pure
No ppispnous decoctions must eat into
it's substance or change its nature. Used
in proper way, to relieve neuralgia
pains, or applied in various affections
under the advice Of skilled physician,
it is n valuable medicine. Care, however,
is TO be taken that the patient is not
nicotized. Tobacco also acts, when pure,
as among the best of sedatives; and the
Indian weed, in spite of the diatribes
against it, fornis a valuable addition to
the pharmacore. It has the authority
OF great names. Milton solaced himself
on going to bed, with pipe and q glass
of water. Sir Isaac Newton smoked.
Burton, in his Anatomy of Melancholy
pronounces the weed 20 sovereign remedy
to all diseases-a virtnous herb, if it be
well qualified, opportuuely taken and
incidentally used"
