Longevity Aided by Salt.

In a recent work by Professor Burg
graeve. of Client. the prominent theory
maintained is that salt is the great reg
ulating agent of life, and on the proper
use of which human longevity largely
depends, it being at any rate a great
preventive OF certain malidies-if the
blood IL too rich. salt will render it less
cbarged;or il it is poor. salt will reco n
sttute it and restore to it the necessary
elements Among the interesting facts
cited by Professor Burggraeve in elab-
Grating his subject is that about the end
Of the last century a terrible epidemic,
bearing some analogy to scurvy
broke out in Saxony, making
such rapid progress among the poorer
classes that the government ordered
an inquiry into its nature and course.
The result was the establishment Of a
singular fact. viz. that miners. although
reduced TO the same misery as other
workmcn. remained. with their iami-
lies. completely exempt from the mala-
DIV; the diet Of the miners differed from
the others only In one point viz. that
being employed by the state. they were
supplied with salt gratutiously, the de-
duction being that the absence of salt
in the diet OF the other workmen
was the cause of the malady. Salt was
then prescribed as a curative measure,
and the epidemic disappeared as II by
enchantMoRt.

Jack and I.
} tired Of Jack, poor boy,

] was so tired Of Jack, poor boy,
And Jack was tired OF me
Most longedfor sweets will soonest cloy;
Fate had been kind, and we,
Two foolish spendthrlft hearts. made waste
OF life's best gifts with eager haste.
Oh tired we were. Time seems so long
When everything goes well
The walls OF home rose grim and strong
Like prisoners In cell
We clanked our marriage chain, and pined
For freedom We had left behind.
Tired, tired OF love and pc ace were we,
OF every days calm bliss
We had no goal TO reach since he
Was mine and 1 was his
And SO we sighed In mute despair,
And wished each other anywhere.
But sorrow came one day-the pain
OF deaths dark, awful fear:
oh, then our hearts beat warm again
Then each to each was dear.
1t seemed that life could nothing lack
While Jack had me and / had Jack

Child-Catchers Instead Of Cow
CatcherS.

A Birmingham contemporary re-
ports trial of child -catchers. This
is startling title, but it neither refers
TO kidnapping nor to any other form OF
crime; and the trial was not judicial
proce eding. 1t was an experiment
with new appliances which had been
fitted to a steam-tramway engine to
prevent if possible any dangerous con-
sequences to children straying on the
rails. This humane purpose seems to
have occupied the attention of quite a
number of inventors; but the result of
the experiments with their various in :
ventions is not entirely satisfactory.
Whether the appliance consists of
arms to seize the child and lift 1t off
the track, of mouth to suck the child
in TO place of safety in hollow at
the back of the engine, Of an India
rubber shovel sheeting TO catch and
hold the child, or of "a spring. cushion
triangular projection" to push the
child aside, or of brushes TO sweep it
away. confidence in the gentleness of

THE NAYAJOE SHOOTING.

Oorreot Report OF ths Aha
NAvAJoB, 1. T., Feb. "a, lsss.
To the Editor Of the Gazette.
AS there seems to be several fslse re-
ports gone out in regard to the shooting,
which occurred In this reighborhood re-
Gently, take it upon myself to state the
facts in the csse: One day last week
Messrs. Hood, Ford and Speaks went to
what Is known as the post oaks for wood,
about four miles from town. The timber
where they went to get wood is
principally claimed by Mr.. Coulter and
Mr.. Smith, who are living there. Mr..
Smith forbade the parties getting wood
on land he claimed, and when they came
GU. of the timber with their wagons
loaded he fred Winchester riff at one
of the men, after ordering them to throw
of the wood, which they refused to do.
Warrants were Immediately issued for
Smiths arrest and handed to Consta-
BILE Weaver, who deputized Mr.. Davis
to assist in making the arrest.
They went to Smiths house and found
him gone. They then went to old
man Coulter's, Smiths fsther-in-lsw,
where they found him with gun in hand,
refusing to be arrested. After great
deal OF parleying Davis managed to gel
into the house where Smith had taken
refuge, who stu refusing to surrender,
caused general fight to ensue, in which
Smiths wife was 81 OF through the thigh
and seriously wounded. The officers
managed to drag Smith out into the
yard, but old man Coulter and wife and
two or three boys made 1t so warm for
them that they were glad to get of with
out Smith, who gave himself up the fol-
lowing morning, and WAS bound over to
court, as WAS also the old man Coulter
and some of his family.
The officers have also been arrested,
and Constable Weaver had preliminary
examination before Squire Weekly this
morning and was acquitted. Davis will
be examined tomorrow. 1t seems some
reports have gone abroad that Mr.. Coul-
ter's family were set upon by mob, whe
shot into his house, wounding and killing
some of his family without cause other
than that they wanted them out OF the
country. All such reports are false.

Business in way Of orders for mems
wear goods for the next fall delivery has
shown some Improvement, and excepting
in some styles Of fabrics the contracts
placed have been larger than in the pre-
vlous week, still the aggregate of
sales has not been as large as de-
sired, nor is the market as active as 1t
should be st this period Of the season.
Some few notifications have been made
in the prices Of some makes Of cassimeres,
but the market otherwise shows very
steady tone. Prices are low, and upon
some goods unusually SO, and this fact
begins to be realized by the buyers, and
is inducing some increased sales. The
demand for light weight goods for the
spring season is still good, and If stocks
were larger more business in them could
be done. The supply is, however, small,
and the stocks of desirable goods in this
