lnstruments Of Torture,


It is stated that tho renowned collec-
ton Of medieval instruments OF torture
ut Nuremberg has been sold to London
company. Prima facio we should doubt
that the municipality of town so ia
nous for its antique relics would be will
ing-or. indeed, would he permitted-to
dispose Of collection unique. SO far as
We know. Nor do tho projects of tho
London company. as described, incline
w to faith. But the report is circum-
stantial. Our enterprising fellow citi-
zens propose to exhibit their treasures in
the chief towns Of Europe, and then to
put them up for auction. Furthermore,
it is asserted that tho authorities of Ber-
lin already look forward to tho sale, and
mediate buying the lot in bulk.
Doubtless an exhibition OF appliances
for torture. authenticated by at least the
belief of generations, would draw pro.
digiously. 1t is strange how few instru-
ments Of the sort survive possessing Sc
rious claims to confidence. Our own
specimens in the Tower are just as au-
thentic as the block OH which, as the
worthy beef eater declares, Anne Boleyn
lost her head. 1t is easy to understand
that the governor or officials in charge
Of AZ old state prison would destroy such
terribly irritating objects if they had
time. when threatened by events that
might lead to an exposure. Thus we are
not surprised to learn that no machinery
for torture was discovered in any of the
Inquisition buildings that have been
seized. But there are SO many cases
where it seems improbable that they
that ono is led to suspect the executioncl
may have kept his smaller instruments
at least, in his own quarters. London

CHOLERA IN ITS WAKE.
Well.0rounded Dread that II viii

Virginia tNev.) Chfonicle.l
The statement published in the
Chronicle made by DR.. Bronson when
the first symptoms Of the grippe ap,
pesred on the Coms,ock, that Rus
sian influenza or grippe has invariably
been the advance courier Of the chol
er1 or other fatal epilemics, is cor
robor.sed by the following extract
from the London Lancet in its issue
Of January 4. 1889:
The t. rr,Lle Asix,io cholera seems
to be following fast in the wake of
tn, grippe. There is, unfortunately.
hut too good reason for believing
that the epidemic of cholera, which
has for 80 many months hung abou,
the rigris. Euphrates valley aud the
interior of Mesopotamia has made
considerable inroads Into Persia.
News OF its having crossed the
western boundary OF that Empire has
been received from time to time, but
it is now announced in the Faculty OF
Medicine Of Paris that there has be-,
an alarming increase of the disease it,
Central Persia and in the Turco- Per
sian fronticr;sssnd that the inhahit.
ants are fleeing northwards. Those
who can afford the journey are en-.
deavoring to reach Russian ports OH
the Ca.pi~",and remembering that this
is the route into Europe which ohol.
era his so often taken before, the an.
nouncement must be regarded Ms Of
no little gravity. This is the more Sc
because the Caspian port towns and
fishing villages have a bad reputation
in regard to those sanitary circum
stances which are known to favor the
diffusion Of cholera.

The front of the cage has an adjustable

Grapes After = Wet Spring.

The year 1887 was quite similar in
some localities to the present season,
in the abundant rains through the first
half. In the Report Of the University
of Illinois for that year, Prof. }. j..
Burrill states that the results were the
most marked On grapes. They ceased
to grow early, during the dry mids s'l1
mer, and then started again after the
September rains, this month continuing
warm with not enough frost to kill the
leaves and stop the growth. But the
latter half of October had some quite
cold weather, in one instant as. low as
is degrees, and all the young wood Of
unprotected vines was killed, doing
more damage than is usually done in
winter. Before this time the grapes
had ripened we'll. Should the vines in
future be threatened under similar con-
ditiors, especially those which are part
