A NOTABLE CHARIVARI.
Exact Mnke-Ip of the Extraordinary
Orchestra Given by
Pefgnet.

You read occasionally Of a charivari
given in honor of newly welded cou-
pie whose marriage is regarded as in
cOngruous. or is for some reason un-
popular, says the Musical Record. At
the "skimmington. described in
Thomas Hardys THE Mayor Of Cas-
terbridpe" the music was furnished
by "cleayers, kits, crowos, humstrums,
serpents, rams horns and other his
torical kind of music" But Gabriel
Peienot. in his "Histoire Morale,
Ciyile Poitique, ct Literataire du

an orchestra for such celebrations in
a town Of from $4,000 10 10000 inhab-
itants: Twelve copper kettles. ten
saucepans. four big boilers. three drip
ping pans, u shovels and II tongues,
" dish covers for cymbals. six frying
pans and pipkins. four warming pans,
eight basins, six watering pots, ten
hand bells and mule bells, four strings
of bells, two tambourines. one gong,
one or two empty casks. three cornets
bouquins, three big hunting horns,
three little trumpets. four clarinets
(badly keyed, two oboes (ditto), two

OLD HOUSE; AN OLDER TRAIL.
Two Peaceful Things of Which the
People of Kentucky Feel
Proud.

Within a half mile of Gethsemane
is an old brick house, which is with
out doubt the oldest brick house in
kentucky. 1t was edected in l7ss by
Capt. Samuel Potthnger, says the Bos-
ton Transcript. Capt. Pottinger came
from Maryland and built the above
mentioned house where it now stands,
near what was known then as Pot
fingers fork. The lumber for the in
terror is made of solid walnut. worked
up by hand. The doors and frames
are made of solid walnut and are very
heavy. The locks. nails and hinges
came from Virginia and were made
by hand and brought on horseback
over the old Wilderness road Tho
plastering was mixed with buffalo
hair. The old house is still in the pos
session of the Pottinger family and 1t
stands just as it did over hundred
years ago, without any change what
ever.
But few persons are aware of the
fact that near Balltown is a path
which was the old buffalo track lead
ing from Louisville to Nashville and
was the old trail followed by the first
pioneers into the unbroken wilds Of
Kentucky. This old trail was used
as road to Louisville until the build
ing Of the turnpike. The old trail is
now a rough, unused path.

Interesting Subject for the
Amateur MicrOscOpist.

We have all observed the sage-green
"mildew" on a decayed orange or on
jam, and many other domestic sub
stances. This is in reality produced
by minute fungus; ii is commonly
designated the green mold"
When first the surface Of the sage
green mass is examined with 'loup'
or hand lens, increasing the area eX-
amincd about 300 or 400 times, we dis
cover that the green appearance is due
20 a countless accumulation of fine.
globular, dustlike particles covering
the entire surface. and more of which
is constantly detached by the slightest
touch or movement Of the surface. Tn
der the powder" lies a compleXity Of
interlaced filaments, or extremely deli
cate tubes. forming a kind of tissue of
fine cottonlike material. From the
upper surface of this arise innumerAble
stemlike projections into the air, and
on the tops of these are seen to be seat
ed the gLobules of green powder.
These stemlike projections. called hy-
phae, if examined with a microscope
and suitable illuminations. present the
appearance of cells arranged as the
beads of a necklace; while the entire
termination of each hypha or aerial
branch gives the brushlike appearance
from which the name of the fungus
C"Penicillium') is derived. Each Of tis
minute beads, or cells, whose string"
form together the brushlike appear
ance is extremely minute.
In an ordinary way We estimate the
relative size Of all we look upon by
the surface area il presents; and if We
consider these cells that form She
strings of bcadlike form that combine
at the end of each hypha to proc nee
the pencllike appearance, their av-
erage size individually in area is the
nine-milionth Of n square inch. THESE

pendent organisms germinate like Il
