The New England Journal of Educa
tion propounds the following peetic
problem :
A landed man two daughters had,
And both were very fair;
To each he gave a piece of land—
One round, the other square ;
At forty dollars the acre just,
Each piece its value had,
The dollars That encompassed each,
For each exactly paid.
If’ cross a dollar be an inch
And ju i t a half inch more,
IVhich did the better portion have,
That had the round or square ?
To avoid exciting false hopes in the
breasts of youthful male readers, it is
well to state that both the daughters of
this wealthy landed gent are now mar
ried.
The Editor of an Exchange, Oho no
doubt has more delinquent patrons
than he ought to have, appeals to them
in the following touching strain :
“When other bill.smnd other.duns
Their tale of woe shall tell,
Of notes in bank without the funds,
And cotton hard to sell;
There may, perhaps, in such a scene,
Some recollection be
Of bills that longer due have been,
And youTl reiftCmber me !”
If they don’t they ought to be asham
ed of themselves.
Signs. —The popular superstitution
regarding the days on which it is lucky
or unlucky to trim the finger nails is
expressed in an old rhyme thus:
Cut them on Monday, cut them for wealth;
Cut them on Tuesday, cut, them for .health ;
Cut them on Wednesday, cut them for news;
Cut them on Thursday, anew pair of shoes;
Cut them on Friday, you’ll cut them for woe;
Cut them on Saturday, a journey to go;
Cut them on Sunday, you’ll out them for evil,
For all the next week you’ll be ruled by the
devil.

CRAWFORD, GEORGIA, FRIDAY MORNING, FEBRUARY 25, 1875.
The Bank Note,
The following amusing scene, which
occurred recently in an American fami
ly, will be found not uninteresting to
our readers. The chief role is played by
money, the prime movers in such affairs.
An eye witness recited to us the occur
rence in the following words:
One evening that I took tea with an
intimate friend of mine, while we were
seated at the table, Mr. Baker, my friend’s
husband, while absently feeling in his
vest pocket, found a five dollar note
which he had no recallectitn of putting
there.
“Halloa!” he exclaimed, “ that is no
place for you. I should have put you in
my pocket-book. Here wife, don’t you
wan’t some ready money? ” and he threw
the note across the table to her.
“Many thanks,” she replied ; “money
is always acceptable, although I have no
present use of it.” She folded the note
and put it under the edge of the tea tray,
and then proceeded to pour out the tea
and attend to the wants of her guests.
At her right sat Mrs. Easton, or Aunt
Susan, Whom We all knew as an acquaint
ance, who, from time to time, spent a
week with Mrs. Baker. Her visit j at
an end, and she was about to return
home that evening. As Mrs. Baker was
pouring out her tea it occurred to her
that she was in her aunt’s debt for certain
small matters, ari£ when she had the op
portunity, she pushed the note under her
plate, saying:
Here, aunty, take this five dollars in
part payment of my debt.”
“Verywell,” she replied, “but the
money does not belong to me. I owe
you fifteen dollar’s, my dear Grace,
which you lent me last Saturday. I had
to pay the taxes on my little house and
had not the ready money, and Grace lent
it to me,” exclaimed Aunt Susan.
Grace, an orphant, was a cousin to
Mrs. Baker. She and her brother Frank
boarded with her, aud made a very pleas
ant addition to the family circle. She
was studying music, and her brother
was a clerk in a mercantile establish
ment.
As soon as Aunt receiver! 'thb note,
she handed it to Grace saying:
“I will give you this now on account,
and the rest as soon as I get it.”
All right,” answered Grace, laugh
ing, “ and since we all seenx in the hu
mor to pay your debts, I will follow suit.
Frank. I owe you something for music
you bought me ; here is part of it;” and
she threw the bank note across the table
to her brother, who sat opposite.
We were all highly amused*to see bow
the note wandered around the table.
“ This is a wonderful note,” said Mr.
Baker, “I only wish somebody owed me
something and I owed somebody some
thing, so that I could come into the ring.”
“ You can,” said Frank. “I owe Mrs.
Baker, or you. it’s all the same, for my
board ; I herewith pay you part of it.”
Amid general laughter, Mr. Baker
took the note ahd playfully thre'tv it
again to his wife saying, “It’s yours again,
Lucy, because what belongs to me belongs
to you. It has completed the round, and
we have all had the benefit of it.”
“ And now it must go around again.”
replied she gaily. “I like to see money
circulate; it should never lie idle. Aunt
Susan, you take it'; now I have paid you
ten dollars.”
“ Dear Grace, here is another five dol
lars on my account,” said Aunt Susan,
handing it to Grace.
“ And yofi, Frank, have received ten
dollars for the the music you bought me,”
said Grace, handing it to her brother.
“ And I pay you ten dollars for my
board,” continued he, and the note once
more rested in Mr. Baker’s hands. The
exchanges were as quick as thought, and
we were convulsed with laughter.
“Was there ever so wonderful an ex
change ?” exclaimed Grace.
“ It’s all nonsense,” cried Mr. Baker.
“ Not in the least,” answered his wife.
“It’s all quite right.”
“ Certainly,” said Frank, “when the
money belongs to you, you could dispose
i>f it as you would; I have the same right.
It is -a fair kind of exchange, although
very uncommon.”
“It shows the use 6f ifioney,” said
Aunt Susan; “it makes the circuit of
the world, and brings its value to every
one who touches it.”
“And this note has not finished its work
yet, as I will show you, my dear husband,
if you will give it to me again,” said Mrs.
Baker.
■* I present you with this five dollar
note,” said Mr. Baker.
“And I give it to you, Aunt Susan—
I owed you fifteen dollars, and I have
paid my debt.”
“ You have, my dear friend, without
doubt; and now, dear Grace, I pay you
my indebtedness, with my thanks for
your assistance.”
“I take it with thanks. Aunt Susan.”
replied Grace ; “and now the time has
come when this wonder working, this in
exnaustibly rich bank note must be divi
ded, because I don’t owe ’Frank five dol
lars rtiore. How much have I to pay
yet?”
“ Two dollars and sixtv-two cents,” re
plied Frank.
“ Can you change it ?”
“ Let me see; two thirty-eight; yes,
there is the change, the spell is broken,
Grace, and you and I divide the spoils.”
“This bank note beats all I ever saw.
How much paid? Let us count
up,” said Grace.
“Mrs. Baker gave Aunt Susan fifteen
dollars, which Aunt Susan gave me —I
gave Frank twelve dollars and sixty-two
cents—Frank gave Mr. Baker ten dollars,
altogether fifty-two dollars ad sixty
two debts.”
“It’s all nonsense I tell you,” cried Mr.
Baker, again, “you all owe each other
what you owed before.”
“You are deceived, my dear, by the
rapid, unbroken race this little sum has
made ; to me it is as clear as daylight,”
replied Mrs. Baker.
“If it is all nonsense, how coulo the
note which you gave Mrs. Baker, if noth
ing to me or to you, be divided between
us two ?” asked Grace.
Mr. Baker didn’t seem to see it very
clearly, but the others did, and they of
ten relate this little history for the
amusement of their frierids.
Funeral of an Indiaoußing.
Sir Samuel Baker has a horrible sto
ry to tell respecting the mode of suc
cession to the throne of Unyoro, in Af
rica. When a king of this'territory dies,
the body is exposed on a framework of
green wood, like a gigantic gridiron,
over a slow fire. It is thus gradually
dried until it resembles an over-roasted
hare. Thus mummified, it is wrapped
in new black cloths, and the body lies
in state within a large house built spe
cially for its reception. The sons fight
for the throne. The civil war may last
for many years, but during this period
of anarchy the late king’s body stil: lies
unburied. At length, when victory is
decided in favor of one of his sons, the
conqueror visits the hut in which his
father’s body lies in state.
He approaches the corpse, and stand
ing by its side he sticks the butt end of
his spear in the ground, and leaves it
thus fixed near tlie right hand of the
dead king. This is symbolic of victory.
The son now ascends the throne, and
the funeral of his father must be his first
duty. An immense pit or trench is
dug. This pit is neatly lined with
new bark cloth. Several wives of the
late king are seated together near the
bottom, to bear upon their knees the
body 6f tlieir departed lord. The night
previous to the funeral the king’s own
regiment, or body-guard, surround many
dwellings and villages and seize the
people indiscriminately as they issue
from their doors in the early morning.
Three captives are brought to the
pit’s mouth. Their legs and arms are
now broken with clubs, and they are
pushed into the pit on top of the king’s
body and his wives. An immense din of
horns, drums, flageolets, whistles, ming
led with the vel s of a frantic crowd
drown the shrieks of the sufferers upon
whom the earth is shoveled and stamp
ed down by thousands of cruel fanatics,
who dance and jump upon the loose
mould so as to force it into a compact
mass, through which the victims of this
horrid sacrifice caunot grope their way,
the precaution having been taken o
break the bones of their arms afid legs.
At length the mangled mass is buried
and trodden dowff beneath a tumultu
ous earth, and all is still. The funeral
is over.
An Actress Dying of Starvation.
—The New York Sun says that during
a recent rehearsal at “Henry V” at
Booth’s Theatre, in that city, one of the
supernumeraries, a delicate, pale faced
woman, fell to the floor in a fainting con
dition. When raised up and asked if
she was ill, she replied ‘‘l am starving.
It has been three days sirfee I tasted
food.” Mr. H. C. Jarrett, one of the
proprietors, was informed of the incident,
and in a mbfhent he was in a neighbor
ing restaurant giving an order for a
hearty meal for the famishing supernum
ary. When the girl bad appeased her
hunger Miss Wells, an actress, went
among the actors and actresses and col
lected forty dollars for the sufferer.
She took her to her lodgings and found
the girl’s husband dying of consumption,
and her mother and four little children
all suffering from the want of food. The
actress, who had not been on the stage
before, was the sole support of the
family.

Fright and Contagion.
The Fort Wayne Sentinel, speaking of
the foolishness of a sinall-poxseure, illus
trates the effect of the imagnation by the
following: You have heard of per
sons havingtheir imagination so wrought
upon as to cause their death from some
suppose disease or illness. Now, no
one has, so far as heard from, been
frightened to that extent on account of
the small-pox scare of yesterday, but a
ease in this point happened here twenty
two years ago, that will serve to point a
moral, if not adorn a tale. The cholera
was then raging pretty generally, aud
numbers of people had left Fort Wayne,
fearing to be attacked by the seourge.
Three doctors were conversing about tho
plague—the effect fear and imagination
had upon people, etc. One of them (now
dead for the last ten years or more) pro
posed a test of this. He named a strong,
robust man, a butcher by occupation, ’
namedJDolman, who then kept his shop
on the canal, directly back of Columbia
street. Of the many strong and healthy
men, probably not one could be found
who was so nearly a perfect man physi
cally. He was also at that time iu
superb health, of full habit aud good
weight. So the trio agreed to subject
Dolman to the above mentioned test.
Eacli of the three diseiples of Eseulapius
was to go into the shop on pretence of
purchasing meat, and then lead the butch
er to talk on the subject of cholera, or in
some way to Impress him with the belief
that be was about to become its victim.
The first doctor entered the shop, and
after passing the compliments of the day
with the proprietor, ordered a ponneb of
steak. It was cut and the unsuspecting
man of meat began to weigh it.
“Why,” said the doctor, “ how badly
you look ! What is the matter with you,
Dolman ?”
“Nothing at all,” said Dolman ; “nev-"
er felt heartier or better in my life.”
“But surely something ails you ; you
are looking ill.”
“Well,” said the victim, “I’m very
well; nothing at all is the matter with
ine.”
After looking at Dolman a minute, the
doctor passed out.
Entered then the second of the trio,
who also ordered some meat He like
wise looked searchingly at the butcher,
and then said :
“Why, Dolman, what is the matter with
you? You are looking ill. You’re go
ing to be sick, I’m afraid.”
The poor man replied that he was not
ill,and felt as well as ever he did in his
life.
The doctor looked dubiously at him
and went out.
The last of the three who had “put up
the job” on Dolman came in after awhile.
He requested the butcher to cut him off
a nice piece of steak. As this request
was about to be complied with, the doc
tor examined the meat and remarked in
an earnest way, “No, I won’t take it,
that meat has cholera in it.”
This was the last straw. The poor
wretch began to think he was in a bad
way. The doctor, as soon as he had gut
tered the rash words, walked and left
Dolman to his own reflections, which
were none of the pleasantest.
Dolman immediately “ shut up shop”
and went home. He fell sick and had,
it is said, as genuine a case of cholera as
was ever seen. The artifice of the medi
cal trio had succeeded too well. Fortu
nately, the man’s splendid constitution
carried him through, and he recovered.
Had he been a man of little strength,
highly susceptible to disease, and all
that, the result very likely would have
been death.
„ But that was not all. The doctor who
had proposed the trial attended Dolman
while he was sick, and presented a bill
‘or his services. The butcher, having no
money, couldn’t pay it. To satisfy his
laim the doctor took Dolman’s horse
and cart and sold them to pay the bill,
though he himself was the principal
cause of the poor fellow’s illness.
The circumstances are doubtless re
membered by many in this city.
