Now that Boston has given the south an illustration of physical cul- ture in the recent prize fight between Sullivan and kilrain, it is in order to remark that such exhibitions are too expensive and brutal, and we therefore respectfully give notice that our people will not tolerate the repetition of such vandal scenes in our sunny Southland. We hope Governor Lowry, of Mississippi, will yet arrest and punish the pugihsts who fought on her soil.

It is not true. that Germeteur is being returned to us, but the empty jugs are being returned, as we pay l5 cents a piece for them, and refill them to go out again on their healing mission. The number of empty jugs brought back only proves that Germ eteur is doing a lively business. It is here to stay and is bound to grow. for all who take it bring in a good report of it; in fact are delighted with it, and recommend it to their friends and neighbors.

Alden's Manifold Cyclopedia.

The splendid speed of about one volume q month marks the progress of Alden's great popular cNclopcdla, the Manifold. The Sixteenth vol ume, now ready. extends from Gal vanized Iron to Cog and Magog. This odd beginning and ending illus trates the magnificent scope of the work, taking in as it does the very latest discoveries of science and the remotest traditions of antiquity, and all between. including an unabridged dictionary of language as well as a cvclopedia of universal knowledge. The small handy volumes, contrast ing so remarkably with the usual unwieldy quarto or ociavo volumes of other cyclopedias the large hand- some type, the numerous lllustra- tions, the excellent printing and the neat strong binding, are features which everyone can appreciate; and not less will the ma jOrity of readers appreciate the wonderfully low price |; 60 cents volume for cloth binding, or . cents for half morocco. or, if ordered immediately, the publisher offers the sixteen volumes now ready for the reduced price of $500 for cloth binding, or s10.iO for half morocco. At these prices it is sent prepaid, by mail or express, or may be ordered through booksellers or agents. A sample volume may be ordered and returned if not satisfac- tory. JoHN B. ALDEN, Publisher.

The Sugar Tree of India.

Every part of the tree, in fact, is of use. The
timber, being hard and strong, close and even
grained, is used for the wheels of carriages,
railway sleepers etc. The flowers when dried
have somewhat the odor and appearance Of
sultana raisins. They are produced in enor-
nous quantities in March and April after the
old leaves have fallen and before the new
leaves have appeared. The crop rarely fails
The feshy flowers fall off and cover the
ground beneath the trees, and are gathered
eagerly by the natives every morning during
the Towering season.
A single tree yields, from 200 to 400 pounds
weight of flowers They are very rich in
sugar and yield when fermented a large
quantity of spirit, as much as six and one
sixteenth gallons of proof spirit per hundred
weight having been obtained from them.
The spirit is manufactured to great extent
in India, and it is said that the government
receives quite large amount for duty on the
spirits distilled The flowers have from time
to time been placed before important distil-
lers in England, but owing to peculiar fla
vor being developed-caused, it is thought,
by the persistent stamens, which it is difficult
to remove from the fowers-the spirit dis
titled has never been brought into consump-
tom in the British market.-ChamberS Jour

The Boarding School Miss.

The boarding school miss-the sweet and
rather soft young creature in white muslin
whom Lord Byron SO ungallantly described
as smelling of bread and butter"-where,
oh, where can we hope to find her in these
days Of high schools and Girton girlsf She
blushed whenever she was spoken to; she
knew nothing on any useful subject under
the sun; she fed from before the face of a
young man, and in society she never spoke
or wished to- speak.
Literature, art, science were sealed books
to her; albeit she painted on velvet and
played the harp. She hid her pretty face in
the depths of an enormous bonnet, and she
never dreamed of maintaining her opinions
in opposition to those of her father and
mother Slang she never used, because she
never heard any, but expressed herself on all
occasions in polite letter writer English. AS
to hunting, or playing cricket, or learning
to swim, or studying Latin and Greek, such
fearful visions Of improperly never visited
her even in nightmare. She had no other
wish than, in due time, to marry and JOG
serenely along the highway of life untrpubled
by lofty aspirations and unfulfilled aims

No New Sentiment.

A number of Benjamin Franklin's letters,
not included in the old collection of his writ
ings, have recently been brought to light,
and are printed in new edition of his works.
One of them, addressed from London the
18th of February, l76S, to Mr.. Thomas Cush-
ing, gives evidence of the interesting fact
that American sympathy with Ireland was
active as far back as the times Of our colonial
history, years before the Declaration OF indie
pendence In the letter referred to Franklin
gives his American correspondent an account
of his visit to Ireland, referring to the vari-
Gus features of English policy in that coun-
try, and then he writes these words concern
ing his hope of political cooperation between
America and Ireland
Before leaving Ireland | must mention
that, being DESTROYS of seeing the principal
patriots there, | stayed until the opening OF
their parliament. l found them disposed to
be friends of America, in which endeavored
to confirm them, with the expectation that
our growing weight might in time be thrown
into the scale, and by joining our interests
with others, a more equitable treatment from
this nation England might be obtained for
them as well as for us. There are many brave
spirits among them. Their parlia-
ment makes a good, respectable figure. with
a number of good speakers in both parties,
and able men of business"
