Kelly Says

AoAJ Suo.
 The resolution offered by our city Attor- ney before the general assembly a week ago, that We could issue bonds to the amount of 5000 900 at per cent and be payable in gold thirty and fifty years from date, if this is sample of the new city charter it is about time that every one should holler Murder" It is & cr'me for any man to borrow money for his own I ers sonal benefit that he knows he will nev, T live 10 pay. History tells us that every generation have all they can do to take care of themselves. It is poor policy 10 issue bonds and borrow money to cen struct plant that will be worn out te fore the bonds become due.
 Let me give you little illustration What would you think of a man who buys a horse for $io0 and gives you his note to be paid in gold fifty :years ifron date at per cent and gives for security any r-Al es- tate or personal property found in the DO. session of his children at the end of that time? II al the end of fifty years gold is so scarce and so high that it is inn possible to buy it, you could turn his children onto the streets and take posses sion of the homestead, according to agree ment. This is the position that the city authorities are trying to place future gen. t4aiions in this city in, issuing fifty year bonds and paying them in gold.

How to Ascertain the Weight of Cat,

Measure the girth close behind the shoulder and the length from the fore part of the shoulder blade along the back to the bono at the tail, which is in Q vertical line with the, buttock, both in feet. Multiply the square of the girth, expressed in feet, by five times the length, and divide the product by 21. The quotient is the weight nearly for the four quarters, in imperial stone of II pound avoirdupois. It is to be ob- served. however, that in very fat cattle the four quarters will be about one twentieth more, and in those in O very lean state they will be less in the same proportion to the weight obtained by the rule. The four quarters are little more than half the weight of the living animal. the skin weighing about the eighteenth part and the tallow about the twelfth part of the whole.

HOW VACCINATION WAS DIscoveREn
Accident Brought About One of the Great
 est Blessings Known to Man.

Accident Brought About One of the Great
 est Blessings Known to Man.
 When Dr. Jenner, the celebrated phy- sician, was at Sudbury once, he was surprised one day at hearing a country woman say that she W ould not take the smallpox because she had had the cow pox, and upon inquiry he learned that it was a popular notion in that district that milkers who had been infected with n peculiar eruption, which sometimes occurred on the udder of the COW, were completely secure against the smallpox. It occurred to Jenner in 17S0 that it might be possible to propagate the cow pox, and with it the security from smallpox first from the COW to the hu- man body and then from one person to another. Many experiments were tried successfully, but there was much oppo- sition to the new practice, and its suc- cess seemed uncertain till a year had passed. when 70 leading physicians and surgeons signed a declaration of their entire confidence in it. Till the last day of Dr. Jenner's life he was using untir ing efforts to diffuse the knowledge of his wonderful discovery, and he had the satisfaction of knowing even then of the widely spread practice of vaccination.
