A correspondent of the Americaa Field tells this; 1 was stopping at the house ofa young planter, who owned a very fine hound, but as he was not @ hunter he had no affection for his hound, which was over-tond of spending his time in the woods, instead of remaining at home to lease his master. An old darkey on the plan- tation owned four eur dogs, and the young planter, thinking he would be better pleased with a big, bob-tailed “yaller” dog than he was with his fine hound, decided to go down to “Uncle” Heury’s cabin and make a trade, being fully convinced that “Uncle” Henry, who was quite a hunter, would jump at the chance of setting @ genuine hunting dog for oue of hls curs. Taccepted an invitation to go along and witness the trade. We found “Uncle” Henry in his “truck patch,” adjoining the house, leaning on his hoe w see whut bis dogs were barking at when we ved, le Henry,” said the owner of the hound, come down to give you a good dog trade,” ana as one of the dogs, a simon pure ¢ur,came up wagging his styb tail, be added, “I will give you my fine hound tor tists dog, as I don’t ‘need a hunting dog, and only Want a dog to lay around the yard and irighten tramps, “Weil, Mar’s Hilly; T'se alerese ready for a trade; and willin’ to oblige you,” said Uncle Henry, ‘but I’se gwine to tell yer poin'’dly dat it wil be many a day betore Uncle Henry and dat dog parts, unless some one knocks one of us on de head.

RAISINE” CONVERTED INTO THE AMER- ICAN “WHEEL” BY YANKEE INGENUITY. From the Chicago Inter-Ocean, In the year 1516 Baron von Drafs constructed curious vehicle, consisting of two wheels of ‘equal «ize, placed one in front of the other and connected by a bar on which was a small seat. The rider sat astride the bar and propelled the vehicle by striking his feet against the ground. This machine, very simple in mechan- ism, was named the Draisine, and was the pro- genitor of the modern bicycle. In 1818 his contrivance was introduced to use In England, and the year following made its appearance in New York, Philadelphia, and Boston, and was for a time guite popular. Yankee ingenuity, however, set to work to overcome the chief ‘inconvenience of this, and the three and tour wheel velocipedes ‘with treadie attachments came into vogue. In 1863. @ Frenchtnan applied cranks to the fore wheel of the Draisine, having discovered that «certain speed would maintain the equilibrium of the two-wheeler, and in 1866 further improve- ments were effected, the new machine being introduced into New York. It received little or no attention until 1 when @ sudden popularity honored it, an everybody begun to use it. ‘The “bone-shaker, as It was called, raged for something more than @ year, when it was as summarily abandoned, as it had been enthusiastiealy taken up. Some English mechantes continued to work upon the plan, however, and in 1376 the first approved bicycle was Imported and put on exhibition at our Centennial fair. In 1578 the first American company for the munutacture of bicycles was organized, and the traific in these articles has since increased so steadily that no less than 6,000 were manu- «tured and sold inthis country last year, and it was estimated that there were then in use in the United States, exclusive of boys’ chines, The manufacture this year will much larger, the constantly growing popularity of tbe bicycle aunually increasing the di see Digital Tenotomy tor Pianists.

Thirteen cigarettes will make a yard, and as there ure 1,760 yards ina mile, it will take 22,- 880 bits of bleached paper containing a little tobacco to measure out the distance of one mile, Tosmokers who use twenty cigarettes a day it will take them 1.144 days to accom- Plish the task, st acost of 114.40.

Ofcourse he has tobe accommodated, or else, through his influence, ‘we may lose the custom of twenty men. Now ‘as to the increase. In the month of September Just passed, 51,625,780 pounds of tobacco were made into cigarettes in New York city alone, against 40,210,140 pounds in the same month 01 1884. For the year ending October 1, 1884, 341,935,750 pounds of tobacco were manufac- tured into c! ttes, and the total number of pounds used in the same way the past year was 393,376,069. During the same periods the to- bacco turned into cigars was 606,434,451 pounds for 1884 and 601,041,150 pounds tor the year ending October i, 1885. It will thus seen that whil cigars have decreased 5,393,301 pounds cigarettes have Increased during the year 51,410,490 pounds “W bat is the cause of this wonderful Increase and decrease?” “Cigarette smoking has th same effect on boys and young men as opium has on grown people. ‘The tobacco which the cigarettes are made of is so mild in taste that the smoke from them can be drawn on the lungs or in- haled, which, in time, will have an injurious effect upon’ the smoker. The inveterate cigarette smoker will reject a fine imported cigar for a clgarette, preferring the latter, which, in bundles, cost only « half a cent apiece. The price of the article ought in itself be a sufficient proof that cigar- ettes are made out of common material, and cheap things are always bad. Som ople imagine that gum opium is used in cigureties, but this is u misiake, as that drug costs $6 a pound, which would be wo expensive to the cigarette manipulator.

Beaver Farms. From the Hamilton Spectator. So far as we know, thee fs not a creature of any kind that files in the air, or walks on the earth, that {s now kept in subjection by man, for the sake of companionship, pleasure or Profit, which was not so kept by our savage or semi-savage forefathers before wistory had be- tun to be inscribed on Egyptian temples or bylonian Dricks, or had even impressed itself upon the language of races whose spee has descended to us. But Mr. E. B. Barron, stipendiary magistrate for the district of Nipissing, suggests that there are new animals to conquer. He thinks the beaver is one. Mr. Barron thinks the beaver would be quite as useful and much more valuable economically. than even the ox. “The flesh of the beaver,” says that gentleman, “is wholesome, moder- ately nutritious, and much liked by those who have been in the habitof using it.” Anold Indian, who had had large experience of both, referred it to rabbit, A full-grown beaver will furnish from thirty to forty pounds of meat, ‘and, by careful selection, no doubt his size can be increased. The price of a full-size beaver skin fs about $3.50. The animal gets his full growth in from two and @ half Yo three years, So that the beaver ralser would from each ani: mal get at least ten pounds of meat and a dol- lar's worth of furs annually. The owner of 1,000 head would have an assured income of say $2,000 annually, and the natural increase ofthe herd. By the way, would a lot of beave bea herd, or a drove, or ‘a flock, or a shoal, or a school? Perhaps colony would be the best word, And what would be the cost? Nothing. Ab- solutely nothing. The beaver farmer has only to turn his beaver intoa swamp and let them shift for themselves. Mr. Barron tells us that “the raising of beaver may prove one of the most pleasant and profitable occupations in which the future inhabitants of our northern ‘and western tefritories can possibly engage.” It was not without reason that the beaver was chosen as the totem of Canadians From the Wine and Fruit Grower. There are no professional wine-tasters in this country. Here every dealer is his own taster. In France there are wine-tasters, called brok- ers, who regularly test the wines in the cellars there, and classify them according to their qualities, The dictum of these gentlemen 1s the law ofthe trade. To become an expert a man must add yeurs of experience to a natu: rally fine sense of smelland taste. He must also be able tosee weil. There & certain routine through which experts pass in tasting wines, but a knowledge of the routine will not make/an expert by any means, When alist of wines is to be submitted to a dealer he will usually select thin glass goblets to hold the samples. It is asserted by some that the taste of the wine varies with the thick- ness of the glass, The glass should be perfectly pure and the lines of the goblet parallel. Inagoblet it is impossible for the color of the standon which the goblet is placed to affect the color of the wine. The French usea silver saucer in test- jing the colorofwine. In using the goblet we hold it before acandle inadark room to de- termine the brightest of the wine. ‘Good wine of the proper age ls called candle bright. If the wine ts cloudy or druggy it is out of condition, but may be clarified. Then the goblet of wine is held between the eye and the window in daylight to determine the de- gree of color, whether itis taint or deep, and also the quality of the color. ‘Thus pure port wine when held up to the light shows a bronze red color, Ifit be pink it indicates bad gtapes or fuscine, or adulterants of some kind. If claret shows a blue color or the ‘color of blackberry juice, objection is made to it. There is one kind of grape, the Lenoir, that makes very excellent cl st except for this blush color, Having found the color all right, the expert next smells ofthe wine, Itis im, ible to describe the peculiar aromas of different wines, but by many comparisons the nose be- comes 80 well educated that some experta can tell very nearly the age of the wine submitted to them, the kind of grapes from which it was made, and, whether It isa pure sample of one kind of wineor of one wino blended with an- other, Last of all the expert takes a sip of the wine, retains ita moment in his mouth to get the first taste, and then ejects it and holds his mouth open for a moment: oF, the after-taste or what {s technical:y called the “farewell.” ‘The farewell taste is the crucial test, Wine may be bright, it Inay have the right quantity and quality of color, it may have the smell it may even have a rich, lus cous taste when taken in the mouth, and yet the farewell be unpleasant, Wines may be doctored unt!l the ordinary purchaser may think he has an ancient brand of the purest Vintage, but they have never yet been blended or ‘0 nicely that the rt cannot tell that they are not pure, nor an‘inferior wine ex! that cannot be properly classified by an expert, ————* oo Tax Fursy TH1xo about the bogus Conkling interview, and it was a funny one, was that the man who got out of politics in orderto make money should be quoted as saying, in Gold- smith’s words: ‘Til fares the land to hast'ning ills. . ‘Where wealth accumulates aud men decay.” Certainly this was a queer thing for a man to quote who is avowedly devoting himself to ‘wealth’s accumulation, no matter what decays, —Boston Herald, 7 —_§-se0—___ A Wenderfal Fish.

Relic of Ante-Bellum Days. From the Atlanta (Ga.) Constitution. One of the most amusing and yet pathetic figures sometimes met in our dafly walks is the colonel, He requires no introduction to the reader. The colonel was in full bloom in the height of our ante-bellum civilization, and he lingers with us yet, in the sere and yellow leaf, Perhaps, but still martial-looking, dignified, and courteous as ever. In these degenerate days the colonel is not at his best in the hurly- burly of a large city. He is too oldjto rise superior toan unfavorable environment, The flippant youngsters who control affairs in the cities confuse him. He knows that he is far ahead of them in wisdom and experience, but he Knows, too, that they regard himas an old fossil, @ relic of the Silurian period, a man who has lost his frip. Sometimes thé old gentie- man shakes his head sadly and is half inclined to admit that the younger men are right. But this feeling of depression soon passes away, and his selfconsclousuess reasserts 1tsel The best way tostudy the colonel 13 to get scquainted with him in the country town where he lives, and where his father and grand- father lived ‘before him. The good people around him do not sneer ai him asan old fosy, Thoy know him to be fully as wide-awake and enterprising s his two friends, the judge and the squire, and what more could be desired? In his big white house with the colonade around it, he dispenses a hearty hospitality, Umited only by circumstances over which he has no control. The negroes on the plice are devoled to him, and the ebildren for miles around, and all the women in the country, loole up to him with enthusiastic admiration. He | has no enemies, and itis generally admitted tiat his proper ‘place is In C | these loyal constituents are a 7 | not send him, the invariable reply is, “ you see he is hot an available man.” cisely the same state of feeling seems to exist throughout the district, the stranger cannot help wondering what constitutes an available mun, It is violating no confidence to say that the colonel is in debt, Every were of his land is mortgaged,and he pays a high interest. He buys his household and plantation supplies on time, St fabulous prices. When the cotton season Tolls round he squares up his Indebtedness as Well as he can, for he Is the soul of honor, but there is alway’ a heavy balance left still owing. Tae creditors cheeriully agree to wait until next year. But the next yeur brings a like re- suit, "In fact, it bas been $0 ever since the war, and there is’ no prospect of a change, Iu his brighter moments the colonel says that he will pull through all right. Extensive farming, peach orchards, and a new railroad cutting through his plantation, will soon bring him even with the world, Inthe meantime, Ifthe has no money, he still has sufficient credit, So the outlook is'not altogether dark, AU times, however, the old’ fellow is. down- right blue. ’ A couple’of decades ago he was sat- istied that when he got trough the reconstruc- tion period he would be ali right, Next he joked toa democratic state government to bring flush ‘times. Then he decided that it would take a national democratic administra tion to make him prosperous, Occasionally he thinks his misfortunes are due toa demoralized labor system. Sitting in-the shade of the trees around the court house, he frequently says: “As soon us the nizgér gets an education he wants lo go to preaching, “He won't split rails, He wants to live in town, [tell you, gentie- men, this blanked Yankee tree school system. hus robbed us of our laborers and turned a horde of educated vagrants upon the country to live without work and eat up our substance.” [tis useless to argue with the colonel on this polut, He hus decided views and stands up for thera: In regard to other matters he has Ideas, plenty of them, but tuey are mixed. He oc: eupies an anotnalous position, stunding be- tween the past and the present, without being fully identified with either. He has seen the south’s old civilization go down in the shock of battle, but he has been too bewildered and too d to ruck the cradie of the new civilization, bo you believe In state's rights, colonel?? asked a young lawyer one day. “Well, sir, I before the “and you doi them now?” “Not by @ blank sight,” was the emphatic reply. During the first decade after the war the colonel irequently told his tellow- citizens that they need not, fear certain federal legislation, as It was clearly unconstitutional. The objectionable bills passed, neverttel and were quietly enforced. Gradually: the old gentleman ceased his constitutional” lectures. onstitutional !” he said one day to a rurai Politician, “Ob, anything is constitutional When there Is @ majority In fayor of It. A piece of parchment written ahundred years azois not going to stop men when they see their way cleur’ to securing a big appropria- tio: there @ hell?” was the question asked one day in @ theological discussion, “There was before the war,” suld the colonel, “but uow Thelieve It is sheol, watever that mlgnt be. And yet the old man ts, in the main, sweet- tempered under reverses and disappoldtment, The newmen who have pushed their way to the front he would like to advise ind instruct, ifthey would only listen to him. Not long ago he wrote an elaborate article, entitled “A Voice from the Sentinel on the Watchtower.” It was five columns long and -igned “Pro Bono Pub- lico.” It would doubtless have created an im. mense sensation and purified the politics of the country, but, unfortunately, the editor to whom. itwas sent lost it, and thie colonel bas never found time to rewrite it. In various other ways he shows that he is not hostile to the progress of the age. But he keeps out of the swim. He is more of a spectator than an actor in the busy life of the period. As the years flit by the colonel’s head grows whiter, aud bis eyes are dim, but as indly as of yore. He cannot be with ds much longer, and when he leaves us he will be missed, Icwl'then be recollected that he bore bimself mantully in the most tremendous period of our history. ‘The shock and the utter wreck of de- feat came upon him atan age when he no longer had the elasticity of youth, New condl- tous, some of them unjust and monstrous, con- fronted him. He could not unléarn the lessons and habits ofa lifetime and begiu anew. After all, it would be a cruel judgment to write him down asa iaiiure. Let us think of him as a sol- dier slain alter the battle. ———+e+— Strange Sights in Guatemala. ©. 5. Victor in Harper for November. The country is densely wooded. No North American forest can give any idea of what the wood wilderness Is in Central America, Soim- passable are these vast stretches of commingled trees, vines, and undergrowth that to this day whole regions are absolutely unexplored. The trees include mahogany, ebony, campeche, and cinchona, which, owing to their inaccessibility, are yearly rotting and being smothered in vast numbers by the stupendous parasitic flora One species, called by the Spaniards the mata alos (tree-killer), begins as a slender vine to wind its way up some monarch of the fores and in time Its growth becomes so strong that it has squeezed and smotnered the very life out of the tree. This dying, rapidly decays, and leaves the now powerful vine to its own develop- ment, It then assumes most wonderful shapes, not unlike the intricate stone-work of a Moorish stulrway or Gothic window. ‘Thee forests are also the native homes of the orchids, whose variety seems absolutely end- less, and whose perfume is oppressive. Not the least anomaly of this immediate re- jon is a race of Indians wholly dissimilar in habits, physical characteristics, and intelligence from any tribe in the whole Cordilleras range In either continent, ‘The only race to associate them with isthe Papuan, and their existence here is an ethnographic problem of exceeding interest.
