The sermon of the morning was preached by Rev, C. W. Brad lee of Augusta. Text: Acts, xx xxiv. “But none of these things moved me.** To be a Christian one must be a man of veil abandonment; his only business is to follow his master. Two things are com prehended in the text, namely, self for^et i fulness and heroic service for God. First put I down over sensitiveness and all manner of jealousy and be consistent in all things. In little things as well as in great things Be sunny in the home as well as pious in the prayer meeting. A good man though he waik the vale of sorrow need not have an un happy hour. In the heroic service of God a Christian moves on undaunted by the fiercest dangers. Think of the many forgetful of self and full of holy zeal who have endured sorrow, pain and death. As Christians we have opportunities to build stone upon vtooe that structure which the eternities will adorn ami not destroy. At 2 o’clock Rev. W. M. Sterling of Waterville, preached from II.

People in search of a nice cool summer resort, and who have no objection to going to Australia, will please take notice. It is rumored that Lord Salisbury is to have an interview in the Vosges Mountains with the Italian Premier, Signor Depretis. Of course, they will talk about Egypt and the Italian occupation of Massowah. But the report that an arrangement will be made providing for the despatch of 20,000 Italian troops to the Red Sea shore to se cure the coast from Suakim to Assab Bay, sounds exceedingly like pure guesswork. If it should prove true that the accident Monday on the steamer “Felton” was caused by an infernal machine, and if the miscreant who carried the explosive aboard the vessel should be apprehended, he ought to be arrayed in a life-preserver tilled with lead and made to jump off the wlmrf. Or he might be punished by being compelled to stand on Market Street with out food, water, sleep or shelter until the cable cars began to run.—Exchange. Tim report of the South American urn mission concerning its visit to Uruguay ami the Argentine Republic recites sonic significant facts. The share of the United States in the commerce ot those countries is less than it was half a century ago. j Twenty-one lines of steamships connect these countries with Europe, while there is no regular steamship connection what ever with the United States. The people are anxious to trade with the United States, hut without steam communication they cannot do so. Unfortunately, tiio present Administration, judging from the course of Postmaster General Vilas, seems to lie determined not to assist in remedying this state of affair. It prefers to send mails to South America !>v way of Liverpool. The Woman’s Journal has a bright and a sensiblo idoa—reciprocity of favors be tween city and country in tho matter ot summer "outings.” The farmers’ wives, as our contemporary truly says,do a grand work of benevolence every year in re ceiving poor children from the city, thus giving thousands of Boston's little ones the splendid annual treat known as “the country week.” Now why, it justly asks, should not some return in kind be made to women who thus give homes to such little ones. The committee who have charge of sending out the children should, the Journal thinks, complete the circle of their generosity by preparing a “city week” for ail women who give children a "country week.” This would be to those women a change,an outing, equal in value to the "countrv week” for the children. There Is, singularly, little said in the English press about the occupation of Port Hamilton, a position which includes a group of small islands situated near the Southern extremity of Corea. It appears, nevertheless, to be a fact, though when re ported to have taken place some months ago the rumor was denied from London. It seems probable that at that time this occupation was contemplated merely and that the appearance ot a Russian cruiser precipitated the English admiral's action. The station is extremely valuable as a coaling place or arsenal, either for Rus sia or tor any enemy ot Russia. The oc cupation was probably due to direct orders from the Admiralty Office, and may be an instance of Lord Salisbury’s "vigorous” foreign policy. The British Ministers to China and Japan were in ignorance of it at ail events until its accomplishment. How England defends the correctness of what seems on its face an arbitrary pro ceeding, is a mystery. There has been some talk of a cession of Port Hamilton by China in return for friendly medita. tion by Great Britian between the Celestial Empire and Japan. But China is only suzerain of Corea, to whom the post clear ly belongs, and has, except by Corean assent, no sovereign) rights in the matter whatever. Corano’s Madonna. A remarkable outbreak of religioua hallu cination has been spreading during the past month near i’larenas, where the mountain village of Corano has. it is alleged, been the scene of a miraculous appearance of the Madonna To this lonely spot, destitute of railway and telegraphic communication, thou sands are now flocking front all directions. Men as well as women are falling upon the ground in a delirium of supplication, kissing the stones, weeping, laughing, singing, and many fainting or falling into convulsions, and some lying in a state of ecstatic trance. The particulars that have hitherto reached us bar* been vague and imperfect, bat tbe Stamps baa now published the following from a correspondent whom it bad tent to tbe »pot Be writea: “Just a month ago a little girl 11 yeara old, Deaolina Latent!, grandchild of tbe Corano bell-ringer, declared that ehe bad aeen on the mountain road of the Boacone a moat beaati ful lady, funa signora bella, bella.') dressed in blue, coming out of the wood, who aaid, •My child, I am the Madonna. Christ, my Son. baa allowed me to come once more on earth. He ia weary of the iniquity of man. and T am weary of their incredulity. I will stay in this place for a while among you, and you ahall come and adore me here, and re build the oratory which was once on tbia •pot.’ She then disappeared, but a few hoars afterward all Corano knew what the girl bad seen. Some were incredulous, but the greater number did not for a moment discuss the ve racity of the girl’s statement. Desolina was hailed as the favorite child of Madonna, and the whole population went out in prceasion to the spot at the entrance of the wood. From that moment there commenced a literal epidemic of ecstasies and visions. While I write more than 30 little girls declare that they have seen and are id direct communica tion with the Madonna. To these are added men and women, young and old, married and single. I had scarcely put ray foot outside the walls of Piacenza before I found that nothing was spoken of by the people but the Madonna of Corano. I can only compare the frenzy of enthusiasm with which all rush to Corano to that of the Crusaders when about to behold Jerusalem for the first time For miles round this village the country has the appearance of the Tuscan Maremma at the time of the unfortunate prophet of Arci doaaa, David Lazaretti. Hanging from the branches of the trees and on the hedges on all sides are offerings presented by the peas ants to tbe miraculous shrine, which at present consists of a basket, draped with three or four cloths, on the roadside, to the right, as you proceed toward Corano. “Hundreds and hundreds of persons are seen laboring up the steep ascent under the burning rays of the July sun. Some girls scramble up the bare rocks, supplicating the Virgin with loud cries to appear, until they faint with fatigue. Recovering their senses, they sav that they hear the voice of the Ma donna, while all present fail on the ground, kissing the earth, with convulsive sobs and floods of tears. A profound impression is produced. To aggravate matters, women known to be hysterical sing, laugh, Hnd cry, causing others to imitate them. While I write tliis thousands are thronging hither from the valleys of the old duchies, from Piedmont, from Liguria, from Lombardy. Tlie number is estimated at 16,000 The au thorities are now interfering, and it is high time Several doctors who have visited the place declare that the spread of this hallu cination is likely to assume very alarming! proportions An Anecdote of Gen. Oliver. The notice of the death of Gen. 11. K. Oliver, of Salem, brought to mind an inter view with him at a picnic near Salem while he wav mayor of the city. After discussing various subjects music was alluded to. I remarked that there was one tune which was a particular favorite of mine. “And pray what is that?” inquired the General. I re plied “Mertog." “Ah, said he, “that is my favorite, too, and I will give you its history. When I was organist and leader of a quartet choir in Salem the minister had selected for the third or closing hymn the first line of which is 'Ye golden lamps of heaven, fare well.’ I could find no tune to suit me. Hav ing some music paper by me, while the min ister was preaching 1 composed and wrote out four copies and distributed them to my choir, which we sang to the closing hymn. The next day I met the minister, who in quired, ‘What tune was it that you sung at the close of the service yesterday. It was beautiful. I never heard it before.’ ‘Nor I either,’ I replied ‘If vou will not be offend ed I will tell you jts author. I composed it while you were preaching.’ ‘Well,’ he re plied, ‘by the appearance of the congregation and remarks I have heard to-dav I think the singing was more effective than the preach ing ”’—IIaeerhill Mass Bulletin.

The Prince of Wales will go in a few days on a yachting trip to Drontheim, where he will visit the famous cathedral at that place, which, despite the ravages of time and of early barbarians, is undoubtedly the most re markable ecclesiastical structure in all Nor way. He will next join a grand hunting party, now Deing organized by King Oscar II. of Sweden and Norway. Meanwhile the Princess of Wales will proceed to her father's court at Copenhagen, and the prince will re join her there, in time to attend the grand reunion of all the descendants of King Chris tian IX, which is to be held next month.

Clark Whittier has bought 60.000 acres of land in North Carolina, and proposes to divide it into 1000 farms of 60 acres each, on which he hopes to settle 1000 families. In India inoculation for smallpox haa been practised from time immemorial in certain regions—as a religious rite—but not univer sally. Vaccination of the natives was intro duced in 1864. It is a curious fact, says the Ithaca Journal, that wasps' nests often take fire, as is sup posed, by tbe chemical action of the wax upon the material of which the nest is com posed. Many of the fires of unknown origin in haystacks and farm buildings may thus be accounted for. We have some of the laziest negroes in tbe world right here in Palatka. and in summer they live on catfish and melons. We saw one of these lazy creatures the other day. He had his fishing line tied to his dog’s hind leg. and when a fish would bite he would give his dog a kick.—Palatka, (Fla Herald. A curious tale of feminine credulity, says a Vera Cruz letter to the Sacramento Record Union, is told by a battered stone image which stands in the rear of a tumbledown old church on the water front of Vera Cruz. From time immemorial it has been believed that if a marriageable woman bit* this image squarely in the face with a (tone she will im mediately obtain a husband and advantageous settlement for life. Recently a Chinese store-keeper who Kept silk handkerchiefs for sale was induced to sell one for 90 cents which he had asked $2 50 for at first. “How much do yon make on this sale?” was asked after the trade was made. “Oh, 90 cents.” was replied. “But how can yon make 90 cents when that is all yon get for it?” “Oh. roe steal nm,” coolly said the Chinaman, as he threw the money into the drawer—Butte City Inter-Mountain. An entirely new kind of bank note, printed ill colors, instead of the black and white of the Bank of England notes, is being pre pared for issue by the Bank of Scotland. The chief novelty of the new note is in its colors, which will, of course, make reproduc tion by photography impossible, and, it is believed, will prevent forgery. The paper on which the bank note is printed is made by the same firm that produces the Bank of England note.

CANCER OF TONBUEI A Cm— ftcsewbliac that affieB. €SnuU. Some ten years ago I bad a scrofulous sore on my right hand which gave me great trouble, aad under tbe old-time treatment waa Beal* d up, and 1 st ppoaed I was well. I found, bower* r, It bad only been driven into tbe system by be use of potash and mercury, aad In March, 1882, it broke out lo my throat, and concentrate d in what some of the doctor denominated cancer. I was placed under treatment for this disease. Some six or seven of tbe best phy sicians in the ooontry bad me a' different times under their charge, an ong them three specialist- in this line; but one after another woo d exhaust their skill and drop me, for I grew worse continually. The caBoer had eaten through my cheek, d‘ stroylng the roof of m mouth and upper lip tbeo attacked my tongue, r>alate and lower lip, d stroyind the palate and under lip entirely and half my P. ague, eating out to the top ot my left cheek bone and up to the left eye. From a hearty robust woman of 150 pounds, I was reduced to a mere frame of -kin and bones, al most unable to turn myself in bed. f could not eat any solid food, bnt subsisted on liquids, and mv tongue was so tar gone I could not talk The anguish of mind and the horrible sufferings of body w hich 1 experienced never can be revealed. Given op by phv stein ns to die, with no hope of recovery npon the part of friends who sat around my bedside expecting every moment to be my last; in fact, my hu-band won d place his band on me every now and then to see whether I wa* alive or not, and at one time all de cided that life wa- extinct, and my death was report- j ed all over the country. Such was my wretched and helpless condition the first of last October (1-84), when mv friends com menced giving me bwi't’s hpeci c. In less than a month the e ting plac*-* stopped and healing com menced, and the Parful aperture in my cheek ha been closed and firmly knitted together, a process of a new under Up is progressing finely, and the tongue which waa almost de-trojed is being recov ered, and it seem* that nature is -upphirig a new tongue. I can talk so that my frlenus can readby understand me. and can eat solid food again. 1 am able to walk about wherever I phase without the assistance oi any one, and have gained fifty pounds of flesh. Ail this under the ble«-lrg of a mercifully Heavenly Father, is due to rtwift’s specific I am a wonder and a marvel to all my friend* hundreds of whom have known my inP ne sufferings, and have i v!*lted me in my wffli tlons. While I am not entirely Well, yet my gmtitade i* none the less devout, and I am confident that a pertect recovery is now in sight. If any doubt these fact*, I would refer them to Hon. John H.

As Mcmcdter ot the Court of Inoolvency for lid Countj ofJEouMbee. w*wB Gallo Bntnrtrc Journal. The Chemistry of Food. There is no reason why every house keeper and cook should not have a knowl edge of the chemistry of cooking, and of the healthtulness of different articles of food. At this particular season of the year, nature bountifully supplies ns with much that is cooling in the way of fruit and summer vegetables, which are not on ly delicious articles of food, but are really health-preserving, for often a slight indis position of children, or oldfer persons, can be readily cured by the tree use of those culinary remedies. Spinach has a direct effect upon complaints, of the kidneys, the common dandelion, used as greens, is excellent for the game trouble, asparagus purifies tbe blood, celery acts admirably upon the nervous system and is a cure for rheumatism and neuralgia, tomatoes act upon tbe liver, beets and turnips are ex cellent appetizers, leituce and cucumbers are cooling in their effects upon the sys tem. beans are a very nutmuous and strengthening vegetable, while onions, garlic, leeks, chives and shallots, all of which are similar, possess medical virtues of a marked character, stimulating the cir culatory system and i he consequent increase of the salvia and the gastic juice promoting digestion. Red onions are an excellent diuretic and the white ones are recom mended eaten raw as a remedy for insom nia. They are tonic and nutritious. A soup made from onions is regarded by the French as an excellent restorative in de bility of the digestive organs. We might go through the entire list and find each vegetable possessing its especial mission of cure, and it will be plain to every housekeeper that a vegetable diet should be partlv adopted at this period of the year, and will prove of great advantage to the health of the family. With vege tables. as with evenlhing else, much de pends upon the cooking and the care and preparation beforehand. Washing in sev eral waters is absolutely necessary to pre pare nearly all kinds of green vegetables lor the table, and great care must be given in examining spinach, lettuce, greens and cauliflower, as often very minute insects are lurking in, or under the leaves of these. It will be found a good plan to wash them in weak salt and water, after which they should be put in ice water for a tew minutes to prevent their becoming tough and wilted.—Good Housekeeping. To Drink in Summer. During the heated term of the year many persons suffer greatly from thirst which ice water fails to allay. In such cases, nature craves cooling beverages that re Ircsh the system and, in many eases, are invaluable'in preventing fever and bilious diseases. But judgment and moderation should be used in selecting them. Various drinks, mineral waters, fruit and acids can he purchased already prepared, but as there i- always a doubt as to tiieir purity freshness, and the nature of the ingredients used in compounding them, those prepared at home are be-t. and as there are a great number of excellent and delicious receipts for home-madesummerdrinks, any house keeper can always have them at hand it so desired. Many of these are particularly acceptable to the sick, leehle and ailing members of the family, to whom refresh ing, nourishing drinks, by which thirst js allayed without too free indulgence in water drinking, is very important. With no one is the taste so capricious as with invalids, and every mode of pleasing them should be carelully studied. It is a source of great comfort that physicians and nurses are learning to Counteract disease by build ing up—sustaining the system by nourish ing food and drink. As a remedy for rheumatic affections and billions ess. lemon juice,in anyway, is excellent, but discretion must be ob served in its use. It should only be taken in moderation, and never used by persons suffering from dyspepsia, as the mueuous membrane is usually more or less sensi tive and the coating of the stomach has a tendency to an inflamed and irritable con dition, which is increased by the use ol an acid. Buttermilk is a wholesome sum mer beverage and CXerts both a local and general aetion.oper&ting locally by means of its acid, and on the general economy by stimulating the nervous centers and the muscular system. Koumiss was brought into every general notice, as a healthful summer drink, because ot its free and beneficial use with President (iarfield. It is is said to be excellent for dyspepsia and all eases of debility.— Mrs. Eliza R. Parker in Good Housekeeping. A Saratogo Belle A newspaper man, describing men and things at Saratoga, says: I.adies seem to vie with the gentlemen in their enthusiasm over the great events of the track. One lady who is especially prominent in this respect is a moat charming widow,with two tall, stately, and lovely daughters, and to great ia her luck or her familiarity with the merit of the horses—1 know not which it ia—that she hat lost but one wager since the opening of the races. The result is that a great many ladies and gentleman follow her lead in betting; and this charming queen of the track, as she is called, is said to have made a neat little pile already. She has hosts of admirers, and one gentleman prominent on Wall street in New York seems likely to be the fortunate winner of her hand, if she decids again to enter the matrimonial harness.

WEBB,Clerk. A true copy of the Petition and Order of Court Attest: L. B. WEBB, Ckrk. late and JHftcbe*. Studying Tornadoes. Information from the Signal Service. The chief difficulty in studying these erratic visitors is in getting upon the track ot them soon enough, a week sometimes elapsing before the investigation can be made, during which interval much of the destruction wrought is covered up. Indi vidual testimony is the only report ob tainable in many cases and this can not always be relied unon for official purpos es. However, at the close of the vear of 1879, the first publication of “Tordado Studies,” by the then Sergeant Finlev.ap peared. In 1880. by special act of Con gress, a second edition was issued. Wher ever a storm appeared men and wagons were hired to collect particulars of its track and force. In 1861 another volume of “Tornado Studies” appeared, in which minute details of 600 tornadoes were re i corded. The work was assuming a mag nitude and importance previously un thought of. In .883 an organization ot a staff of “Tornado Reporters” was ordered and under direction of Lieut. Finley so successfully conducted that 1500 names are published in the annual report of tne Chief Signal Officer. This list compris es business men. physicians, professors and farmers in all parts of the United States, who render their services to the Government without salary. Each report er is furnished stationery, free copies of all tornado publications and allowed free use of the mails in forwarding official correspondence. Blanks specially pre pared with a full set of questions cover ing every conceivable detail of the storms are applied by the Signal Service, with a pamphlet of instructions to govern the re porter in obtaining all necessary and val uable points. The whole service, though purely voluntary, is most trustworthy and accurate; the appointments being eagerly sought for by men of prominence who in terest themselves in studying the phe nomena of tornadoes. The mode ot obtaining complete official informa tion ot each tornado reported by the Sig nal Service stations to the headquarters at Washington is most comprehensive and thorough. Immediately on the receipt of the announcement, the “Tornado Division” issues circulars addressed to men liviug in the direct path of the storm, and who are likely to be trustworthy sources of infor mation. These circulars, containing a full series of questions, go to postmasters, county clerks, railroad officers and other persons, requesting their assistance in pre paring a report tor all particulars. Cir culars arc also sent out to persons living upon each side of the track of destruction, where the phenomena are differing from the centre of the storm path. By this means the whole territory is covered and every interesting points obtained. These circulars are forwarded to Washington, where the local tornado reporters’ state ments have already been received, and the whole mass of facts is then compared with the official report of the chief signal officer stationed nearest the locality visited hy the storm, on« account serving as check upon another. A local or geographical chart is then prepared, showing the course from beginning to finish. This is fur nished free to the public in a week or two, by application to the Chief Signal Officer at Washington. Four other nieteoroligical charts are then prepared with the greatest care and attention to details. Three of these charts represent the United States, and show the direction of the wind, distri bution of barometric pressure and tempe rature record at 7 A. M., 8 P. M. and 11 P. M., 75th meridian time, all over the country. The fourth chart shows the track of the general storm centre and re lative position of tornadoes developed from the same disturbance. These charts are also furnished free to the public. The storms which lay waste our Western country are tornadoes every one of them. A cyclone was never seen as far West as the Mississippi. The cyclone is a produc tion of the West Indies, and is unknown during the summer months. During Sep tember and October the heated tropical currents develop vast rotary storms from 500 to 1500 miles in diameter, which sweep in a parabolic curve against the South Atlantic coast. The cool trade winds blowing down the cost deflect their course and send them sweeping inland. Passing northward they describe their curving flight as tar as Nova Scotia and New Brunswick and then rush with howling force across the Newfoundland Banks. Some of them reach England and Ireland. The same storm ravages the coast of Japan, and is called a typhoon. The tre mendous breadth of cyclones seldom gives local evidence of their circular sweep. Their calm centers are much dreaded by navigators. The Signal Service cautions mariners against sailing into a “cyclone center.” The atmosphere is always striv ing to attain its equilibrium, and so long as some parts of the earth get warmer than others storms will rage. Sweeping down from the snowy desolate wastes of British America across Dakota, Montana, Wyoming, and Minnesota is a cold wind, which often sends the mercury to 30 and 40 degrees as it crosses the bor der. From the Southern States and Gulf region, a hot wind, sometimes 100 degrees, flows np the Mississippi valley to meet it. The towering Rockies hem these currents in to the Westward, and they come togeth er with a mighty rush. The warm cur rent rises to escape, the cold air deflects downward, and with a whirl and roar a tornado cloud gathers. The resulant of the two forces is invariably Northeast and the track of death is cut through every ob«tacle. The tornado itself is invisible its fearful power is simply atmospheric pressure concentrated in a trunk-like form. Slathematical calculation will show that the air revolving within a tornado center develops the terri6e speed of 2000 miles per hour, exerting a force alike inconceiv able and irresistable. The rotary move ment of the whirl is upward, upon the principle of a chimney flue. Once started the tornado cloud becomes visible from the amount of dust it raises and the moist ure gathered within it. The rotary motion is invariably from right to left. Every hail storm would be a tornado if it reached the ground. The atmospheric conditions producing hail are precisely i similar to those generating tornado clouds. Professor King, the aeronaut, announced that discovery after passing through a hail cloud and Doting the phenomenen. Tor-j nadoes have always been a natural feature of the Missouri valleys and will continue as long as the world lasts. Through the vast forests of Minnesota and Wisconsin tracks are visible where the tempest of wind hewed its clear cat path a century ago. Even the legends and traditions ot Indians are fall of accounts of the mighty **orms which struck terror to the hearts ot tne aborigines and leveled their forests. The Signal Service at Washington is in constant receipt of letters from Canadians and Eastern people desiroas of going West, inquiring the portion* ot country unvisited by tornadoes.

It is a delightful dressing for the hair, arrests the tendency to baldness, is agreeably perfumed, and is an effective remedy for all diseases of the hair or scalp. Mrs. D. N. Parks, Clio, Mich., writes: One bottle of Ayer’s Hair Vigor has entirely restored my hair to its natural color, and given it a beautiful, soft, silky appear ance. I am fifty-seven years of age, and was quite gray. By the use of that one bottle of Ayer’s Hair Vigor, the original color was perfectly restored, and I now SB M i 9 S3 si S 5 ta a O 1 2 S "3 1 rSS, CO 1 g I S S £^i33 U s 1 3 §1 5? .2 2 3?{«8 Z S *3 O 2 o ©2 v» "i 1 s lit $2*ss O-3 BJ S a a g CO is Sit!

Speaking of hurricanes. Lieutenant Finley said that they were merely straight winds moving at a velocity of between 80 and 150 miles an hour. The Texas “Norther” is a cold trade wind, the Mon tana “Chinook” a warm current and the “blizzard” a hurricane with particles of ice and snow in its teeth. Tornadoes are known as “wind falls” in the West. Ser geant Dey, stationed at the Philadelphia Signal Service Officm is busily engaged in investigating the tornado’s track through Port Richmond and Camden, pre paratory to making his official report to Washington. According to Lieutenant Finley’s statement, the Philadelphia tor nado was comparatively mild. The study of tornadoes is a most important feature of the Signal Service Department, and the next publication of Lieutenant Finley’s, which will be issued next spring, will con tain the most minute statistics of all that have occurred this year.
