of the first fonr minutes he arrives nt tho hands
of the “shavers,” who hand him np on a table
in'eigbt seconds, and all his bristles and hair
worth shaving are off and deposited in a barrel,
and he is slang along to the ‘‘scrapers.” A few
quick passes and one side is scraped perfectly
dean, and with an overturn he goes into the
hands of the next to hero the other side cleaned.
Then he passes down to the “gutter,” who.
with a twist, elevates him by the bind legs, and
before I can write it his entrails are Bang on a
table, and our porker swings on to the next op
erator, who, with the pipe of a rubber hose,
washes him outside and in. Then he receives
another swing and fetches up in the “hanging
room,” where he remains a few hours to cool
At this establishment the common rate of
slaughter is thirteen hundred per day. From
the time a hog first reaches the establishment
until he is barreled up for market, he passes
through forty-eight different hands. I have
merely described the killing, gutting and hang
ing np; were I to follow the head, feet and en
trails, which all take different directions from
the table of the “gutter,” this would prove a
wearisome article indeed. Escorted by W. W.
Beresford, the young and gentlemanly* clerk of
this establishment, I consumed about one hour
in making the round of the house, tarrying but
a moment before each object of interest. Of
course all the animals slaughtered here are not
the property of the proprietors, and consequent
ly are not packed. Every house keeps an agent
at the various depots, and when a train of hogs
arrives he searches ont their owner, and offers
from fifty to seventy-five cents per head for the
privilege of slaughtering them—the house to re
tain nothing but the fat on the intestines and the
hair and bristles, and to deliver the carcass at
any of the city packing-houses. I expressed
some surprise at this statement, but was told
that it was looked upon as a profitable '‘lay,” and
excited considerable competition between the
various houses.
At the “ Cincinnati Slaughter-House ” the an
imals are knocked on the head with a hammer.
Hanging them up and cutting their throats is
but a recent invention, and it is claimed that it
adds to the whiteness and purity of the meat.

tion, its it has become better known. Its uniform
character and power to cure the various aJTectic ns
of the lungs and throat, have made it known as a re
liable protector against them- While adapted to
milder forms of disease and to young children, it is
at the same time the most effectual remedy that can
be given for incipient consumption, and the dan
gerous affections of the throat and lungs. * As a pro
vision against sudden attacks of Croup, it should
be kept on hand in every family, and indeed as .ill
are sometimes subject to colds and coughs, .ill
should be provided with this antidote for them. 7 .
Although settled Consumption is thought in
curable, still great numbers or cases where the dis
ease seemed settled, have been completely cured,

Asthma is always relieved and often wholly

A Noble Act.—"When the crown prince of
Prussia was recently with his wife at Pihnitz,
the palace of the King of Saxony, he met, dur
ing a walk in the park, a young couple, a lady
of 22 or 23, leading a young officer by the
hand. The officer, who wore the uniform of a
Saxon lieutenant, was blind. The crown
prince entered into a conversation with the
two, and learned that the poor young man bad

and lost his eyesight in consequence. The
young lady who accompanied him was his wife,
and had been noble-hearted enough to marry
her betrothed even after he had become entire
ly blind. The lieutenant said he would, even
as it was. be quite happy, but for the small pen
sion which he received, and which made it very
difficult for them to make both ends meet “Never
mind that,” said the prince, to the great surprise
of the young couple, who did not know who he
was, “ I will see to it that you shall henceforth
