The Clerotand (Ohio,) Herald tells the follow ing horrible story A few tiny* ago its Miss Helen McGuire, n voting, handsome tint) accomplished lady, living in the family of William Higitby, of Solon, wns walking leisurely along the railway track, she discovered that a negro was dogging her steps, and, fearing he contemplated mischief, increased her gait to one ol more rapid pace. Seeing that he also governed his movements by her speed, she boca me frightened, commenced running and fear lent her such powerful wiogs that she would have reached a place ot safely had he not led the track and gained upon her by making a "short cut” while she lollowcd the curve of the road. Surprised at his sudden ap pearance In trout, he haviug boldly leaped out of the bushes, she seized a club as a means of pro tection and commenced running in the opposite direction. He followed, and when about to grasp bis victim her foot caught upon something which brought her to the ground violently, but before bis arrival sbe was up iqpin and turned upon hor her power to wield theclub. Her blows were so well directed for a time that lie feared to venture beneath the shadow ot the weapon, but by a se ries of manoeuvres lie gradually approached, eva ding all the heaviest blows, until she, being scarcely able to stand through fright and exces sive self-defense, could not wield the stick any longer when he gave her a blow on the head that sent her reeling and staggering to the earth. Pouncing upon her prostrate and helpless form like a demon In darkness, he proceeded to ac complish a foarfhl crime, but her resistance was so stubborn that, in the struggle, her hair was disheveled, her person badly bruised, her cloth ing lorn to shreds, and blood ran from wounds inflicted on her face and neck until the poor girl looked almost like any object except a woman. In the meantime, when his flat was not battering her mouth she cried (or help, and help came in time to alarm the villain before his awful work was accomplished. They were some distance from any habitation, and the monster would pro bably have been successful had not her cry been heard by a farmer who chanced to be in a neigh boring field, which was hid from view by an in tervening piece of timber. Upon the farmer's uppearanco the negro fled, and the farmer would have given chase but tho lady pleaded with him to remain with her. Ho carried her to a house, aroused the neighborhood, and by measures formed for the Capture of the criminal, they were successful in effecting his arrest soon alter. A Question ok Mountains.—Has California or Oregon the highest mountain in the United States is a question which is now occupying the attention ot scientific men of the coast. The questiou lies between Mount Hood in Oregon, and Mount Whitney in California. The former is 15,000 feet high, and the latter, up to last Au gust, has been reputed to be 12,000. At that time Prof. Wood ascended Mount Hood and reported its heighlto be 17,600feet. The report lias excited no little astonishment. The latitude snd longitude are easily ascertained, and are probably correctly stated on the maps of the United Slates coast survey. It seems a little strange that if the mountain was 17,600 feet high, that it has not been discovered before this, and it is the general opinion among scientific men that Prof Wood has made a mistake.— Prof. Whitney made some remarks upon this question at the February meeting of the Califor nia Academy of Natural Sciences, and he called attention to tho fuel that a correct calculation of Prof. Wood’s observations would make Mount flood, not 17,000 feet, blit 34,000 leet high ! Dr. Newberry, who is considered good authority, says that forest trees arc not found more than <>,50© feet above the sea at Mount Hood, where, us Prof Wood says, they grow to 0,000 feet. An investigation to he made this summer will probably deprive Mount Hood of the honor of being ilia highest mountain in the United States. Encounter Between an Elephant and a Hat.—A very extraordinary encounter between a rat and an elephant has recently taken place in the Garden of Plants, London, which was wit nessed with interest by hundreds of persons.-r The keepers wore engaged in destroying a great number of rats, when one of them escaped, and ran to the spot allotted to the elephant. Seeing no other reluge, in the twinkling of an eye the rat snugly ensconsed himself in the trunk of the elephant, very much to the elephant’s dissatis faction. He stamped his foot and twisted his trunk around like the sail of a windmill. After these revolutions he stood suddenly still, evi dently reflecting ou what was best to do. He ran to the trough wliero lie is accustomed to drink, plunged his trunk into the water, then re turned to his den, ami raising his trunk, witli the water he absorbed, lie dashed out the unfortu- uute rat, which was iu a sheet ol water like tlint issuing from a lire engine. When the rat fell to the ground the elephant seized him and made him undergo the immersion and projection four times. At the fourth throw it fell dead. The clphant, with a majestic air, but cool and placid, crushed his annoying enemy with his foot, and then turned round to the spectators to make his usual collection of cakes, sugar and other dain ties. The feat was received with vociferous ap plause, which the elephant seemed fully to un derstand and appreciate. A DnKADKUL Death.—A young French musi cian ol much promise, named Benoit Denis, met vi(h a terrible deatli near Vera Cruz last Decem ber. He had been performing at the country house of a wealthy American merchant residing near Vera Cruz, quitted the heated concert room i refresh himself in the pleasure grounds and enjoy the cool evening air. Feeling thirsty, he took up an alcaraza which he happened to see near a fountain, filled it with fresh water, and put it to his lips. Frightful screams instantly at tracted the company to tlio spot. Denis was lying on the earth, his hair on end, his features livid, the body and tail of a monster scolopender protruding from his guping mouth. The reptile, whose bile is more venomous than that of a scorpion, had taken shelter from the heat in the cool porcelain beaker. As Benoit npproached tlie vase to hi9 lips the scolopender had sprung at his open throat. In vain was the reptile s body cut away. Once its tangs close on their prey it is impossible to tear thorn open. A sur geon who chanced to be among the guests pro ceeded to cut them out of the flesh, piece by piece • hut by the time the operation was over, the poison had produced its fatal results, aud | after three hoars of agonizing convulsions, the | unfortunate young artist expired. Effect of an Ancient Relic.—In tlie ex cavations of the ancient cities many relics are disentombed which throw important light upon the history of music, showing that the ancients were a musical people. From this source we learn that Syria was tho birth-place of music. Stringed instruments were in use in tlie earliest [times. Among the ruins ol Thebes in Egypt, a harp has been found with tlie strings intol erable preservation, sufficiently so to vibrate at tlie touch though the time elapsed since the last touch was given it, is 3000 years. The same string that vibrated the strange tunes of that time gives its sound still, the taint sound as though it hail been sounded but yesterday. This | brings the old witli a terrible cliect to U9. 1 he »ime string with the same sound ! But how ditlerent the tune now and the hands that touch eil it! The tiarp is tho same, soundiug as it did in the ears ol those strange old Egyptians, pre served w till the harp; perhaps the hands (ol the mummies) touched string. So rEulmn sounds bring tbe ancients fresh to us. We hear the sound that the Greek heard in Ills day, us fresh | and just the same.—Cohnaa'i Rural H arid. A Massachusetts paper says that tlie case of trichinosis reported in Springfield is having a marked effect on tlie sale ol pork in that city. No wonder; nothing more likely. When we | are told that halt a dozen persons are killed by insects iu a 1mm they have eaten, and that similar insects inhabit pork iu all its forms, I notidng is more natural than that tlie sale ol iiork should be somewhat affected thereby. We should like to know how large a proportion of I these dreadltll stories are got up for the purpose of ufleeting the pork market. A few years ago a similar panic was got up about oysters, which were represented as killing of people who ate them, right and left; and the oyster market was I affected accordingly. Bad pork is unquestion ably unwholesome—and hams may undoubtedly i become fatally poisonous. But we put not a particle of faith in Hie sweeping stones fold about tlie deadly character ot pork in general. N. Y. Timet.

VOL. XIII. ATLANTA, GA., WEDNESDAY. APRIL 10, 1867. NO. 85. To Kmp Horses In Health. Horses to he kept healthy, need tho best enre, attention aud treatment. It is only when abus ed, ill-treated and improperly fed, that horses become Blck and die. If they aro fed on poor dusty hay, and musty oats, if tlioy are kept in low, illy-ventilated stables; if they are compelled to stand in thoir stalls fetlock deep iu the mud or their own filth; if they are worked hard and brought in at uiglil wet with sweat or rain, and their legs aud bellies covered with mud, and then a total neglect of cleaning, rubbing, aud rnukiug comfortable : is it wonderful that horses should deteriorate and sicken and die? To keep in flue health aud spirits; to have a shiny, glossy coat; to work willingly and cheer fully ; to win his affections—he must receive proper treatment At this season ol the year, salt and wood ashes mixed—say two parts of salt aud one of ash os- should be kept standing before all horses, it is, we believe, a sure preventive of hots, colic, worms, &c. A good big lump of rock salt al- ys lying iu the manger, will keep a horse in health. Carrots and parsuips, cooked or raw, and given to horse9, are an excellent alterative, and arc promotive of digestion, aud give tone to the stomach. Bran mashes should he given once or twice a week to all horses that are kept up.— They are made by using about five quarts ol bran for each horse, and pouring boiling water over it, and putting in a little salt and letting it stand till cool, and then feeding to tho horse.— Good bright hay and oats only should be fed. It is an outrage to mistreat so noble an animal us the horse.—Colman's Rural World. Atlanta Advertisement**. St RU CKE R, Whitehall Street. GROCERIES & PROVISIONS!

This, it would seem, is proved by tho fact that a young horse confined in a stable next to an old horse who is acribbcr, will soon acquire tlie habit. It is very common among horses that are constantly kept in a stable and may be caused by the animal seizing upon crib biting ns a solitary pastime, to while away the tiresome hours ol stable lite. Or the con stant diet of hay and oats may derange the di gestion, causing—as we ourselves well know- uneasiness. Or tlie long continued inhalation of close and impure air may disorder that part of the body which is tho most sympathetic of tlie entile system, and thus gives to the habit. Crib bing may he prevented if taken in hand during its early stages. First attend to the atmosphere of tlie stable, rendering it pure by careful venti lation. Place a lump of rock salt in the manger. This acts as a stimulant to tlie stomach, and will often enable tlie horse's digestion to recover its lost tone. It this does not eflect a cure add to it a large piece of chalk. Should this prove to do no good, damp the food, and at each time of feeding, sprinkle magnesia upon it. Mayhew also recommends a handful of ground oak bark to be given with each teed of grain. Should none ot the above measures prove of benefit, we should coma to tlie conclusion that tlie disease wu9 of more obstinate nature and treat as in chronic indigestion.—Maine Farmer. Talking Fine.—Ludicrous blunders sometimes occur in cases where ignorant persons attempt the use of language about tlie meaning of which they know nothing. Not long since, while traveling from Pittsburg to Cincinnati, two rather verdant specimens of the female sex came on board tlie boat at one ot the bindings, who, for tlie sake of distinction, we will call Jury and Jane. Now, Mary had her eye teeth cut, or, in other words, was acquainted with tlie rules and regu lations which govern genteel society. Jane, the younger, had never mixed in society to any ex tent. Her language wits sucli as she had heard among her rustic associates. Mary, was aware of this fact, and therefore cautioned her to observe how she (Mary) acted, and govern herself accor dingly. Shortly alter, while seated at the dinner table, the waiter asked Mary what part of the fowl site would have? She imformed him, in a very po lite manner, that it was “perfectly immaterial." He accordingly gave her a piece, and then in quired of Jane what part she would prefer? “I believe 1 will take a piece of the immaterial, too!” Tho scene that followed this declaration is be yond the power of the pen to describe. Tlie as sembled company were obliged to give a sponta neous vent to their surcharged feelings in peals of boisterous laughter; whilst the poor girl, her face suffused witli crimson blushes, left the table, declaring as she fled from the cabin: “They won’t catch me on one of these pesky steamboats agin 1” Smallness of Cob very Desirable in Seed Corn.—The selection of seed corn is one of the most important things which a larmer does at this season. Conrse cobs accompany late matu rity, as a rule; fine cobs, well tipped out, indi cate perfect maturity, adaptation to the season and soil, and a fixedness of character which it is important to maiutain. The curing of corn takes place to a great extent after husking, and the pre sence ol a great, soft, moist cob in each car gives a tendency to mold, which should be sedulously avoided. The old experiment ol fitting a paper cone to an ear of corn, then withdrawing the ear, shelling it and returning the kernels to the cone, is interesting and instructive. If the kernels will go easily into the cone, the cob is too large, ami we should say, tho coru unfit for seed. 1 lie cono should be made of brown paper, dampened, bound tightly around the car, coming no higher than the kernels, but covering all; the ends are trimmed off, and it is allowed to dry before the car is drawn out. One may easily judge by the eye which cars have tlie smallest cobs—those which aro best tipped out, which have the ker nels in the closest rows, and all the rows running unbroken from end to end. These ears will not be found among the biggost round, nor among tho longest, usually, but among those of medium size. A friend used to say, as he showed off Ids seed coru, “evory ear as solid and regular as a white oak pin. And so they were, ss nearly as corn ears could be—firm close, hard and solid. Scratches in Horses.—In reply to calls for a remedy lor scratches in horses, we give tlie following; Tako a heaping tablespoonful of powdered alum and burn it slowly. Fill a quart bottle with one part beef brine, one part alcohol, and one part urine—into which place tlie burned alum, and wait for the latter to dissolve thor oughly. • Wash the fetlock joint carefully with warm castile suds, and then bathe the parts with tlie above described decoction. We have tried it oflen, and it never fails to effect a cure. Bacon, flour, LAUD OOHN, OATS, SUGARS, COFFEE, CHEESE, NEW ORLEANS SYRUP, MEAL.

A few days ago a young woman named Mi nerva Liugefeltcr, daughter of John Liugefelter, in Lewis county, Missouri, killed a catamount with un axe. Tlie dogs first treed the cal on a suppling, and the young lady cut the suppling down. One of tho dogs caught and clinched the cat, when both rolled Into a ditcli seven or eight leet deep. The cat was about to get the best of the tight, when Miss Minerva bravely jumped in to tlie ditch and struck the cat witli the handle of the ax, and killed it. It wasol enormous size, measuring three leet iu length and two leet in height. ^ M.
