Bleeding (lie Farmers. •Grinding Rocks at the Guano Reds and j Selling the Sand for a Fertilizer. (From the Philadelphia Timeß.) 'Sir. A. L. Phillips, one of the offi cers of the Riceborongh grange, in Newport, Bucks county, was coil mis sioned by his grange, a few weeks ago, to purchase twenty tons of ■Peruvian guano for the use of its members. Mr. Phillips came to Phil adelphia and ordered the guano •through a commission house, who bought it direct from Hobson, Hor nando & Cos., the agents of the Peru vian government in New York. The guano reached Mr. Phillips in the original packages, not having been opeued or handled by the commission house. In Newport, it was bought by the grangers, Mr. Phillips keeping only a few bags for his own use. When he opened the bags and began to spread if over his land he noticed that it was lumpy, and apparently •contained sand and gravel. So he •measured out a half pound and wash ed it carefully. The guano dissolves in water, but in the bottom of the pan was a heavy sediment, which, 'when separated and dried, proved to he coarse browr sand and fine gravel. This sediment was sent to the agency •of tlie New Jersey State Grange, at 102 Arch street, yesterday, and on a druggist’s scales it weighed one and a half ounces, or 15 per cent, of the guano, for which the grange paid $55 a ton. The sediment is of course useless as a manure, being just such sand as any farmer can find on his land; and iu the same ratio purchas ers of a ton of guano at $55 pay $25 'for brown sand and gravel. The cap •tain of a schooner running from this port to the Peruvian islands for guano wrote to a friend a short time ago ’that when he reached the islands he was afraid to load his vessel, the adul teration being so great that he feared he could not get enough for the gu auo to pay for transportation. A stone breaker had been put up near the : guano beds, be said, and it was evi •dent for what purpose the stand was used. He sailed to another island ! fifty miles away, and there he found the adulteration even worse; so he <came home without any load. “A few years ago,” said an old farmer to a Times reporter, yesterday, “we •could not sow more than two hundred •pounds of guano to the acre, for it would make the grain so heavy and thick that it would break and tangle. But now a man can sow half a ton to the acre, and he don’t get a much better crop than if lie didn’t sow any at all. It’s all owing to the adulter ntiop. I bought a hundred and fif teen dollars worth of guano last year, and it did not do me a hundred ana fifteen cents worth of good. This .year it seems to be worse than ever, and I think it is getting poorer every year. Last year tlmy charged eighty • dollars a ton, iu gold, for it. This spring they made a great fuss about reducing the price, and now we buy it for fifty-five dollars a ton, in currency. But it has been reduced in quality as much as in price. We farmers lose not only what we pay for the worth less sand, but we lose the value of the crops that we would raise if we used good fertilizers.” She was an elderly lady, and as she seated herself on one of the stools in Wiilluch’s store and asked to be shown some “caliker,” she remarked that when she was a “gal” she thought she was powerful lucky if she got sixteen yards in a dress, and she thought it a “singful” waste of stuff •■?) put in more; but she had just “heern” that Mrs. X. was agoiu’ to hev forty-two yards ill her new cali ker, and she hoped that there might be a cloud burst in seventeen uiiniit o if that air woman should stare round at her iu church and make remrxTs about her clothes. “You kin jist cut me off forty-three yards, and I’ll have it made pin-back fashion, with an over dress and a mainsal, and Ilyin jib and a back-action; then I’d jist like to see that stuck-up Mi's. X. put on airs over me.” She Got the Dress. [Viel'Bburg Herald. ] One day not long ago an old chap from the interior, accompanied by his wife, entered a Nicksburg dry goods store, and after looking around for a moment said to the clerk: “Pile yer best kaliker down here afore me, for Mirandy wants a dress.” As the pieces were tumbled down he continued: “Mirandy’s been purty good this summer, and she can have her pick of the best kaliker in the store.” The old man felt of the different pieces, and his wife tossed them over, and finally they settled on a particu lar piece, and he said: “Cut her off nine ysrds o’ that.” “What! Nine yards 1” echoed the wife. “I can’t get a kaliker dress with a loop-up behind to it out’n nine yards !” “Who said anything about loops?" he inquired. “Haven't you always got a kaliker dress out’u nine yards ?” “Yes, but the fashion has changed. I’ve got to have fourteen yards now.” “Have, eh ! I’d like to see myself buying any fourteen yards !” “Then you wou’t ?” “Not if I die for it 1” “You are an old miser!” she hotly exclaimed. “Don’t fool with the alligator - , Mir andy !” he warned. “Oh, I guess you’d better buy her the dress,” put in the clerk, hoping to make peace. “Dam’f I do!” growled the man. Tlie woman walked down the store, looked into the back yard, and turned and called out: “Come here a minute, William.” “What yer want ?" he inquired. ‘ Come here, darling, I wan’t to whisper to you,” she continued. He followed her out among the boxes. Her face wore a smile, and be suspected nothing. When he was clear of the door she turned and seiz ing him by the windpipe, rushed him backwards, and Hopped him over a pile of boxes. “Mirandy, I’ll pound blazes out’u you for this,” hoarsely whispered the man. “William, it don't lay iu your back bone !” she replied. “Take that!” he gasped trying to kick her. He made a heavy struggle, but she clung to bis throat, and flopped him as ol'iea as he partially rose. After realizing i Hat he was foul, he faintly inquired: ‘Mintidy, what’s yer object?” “A kaliker dress!” she promptly responded. “Nine yards?” he asked. “Plump fourteen !” she responded. “Hay twelve, Mirandy.” “Straight fourteen and no goug ing !” she answered. He made a grand effort to throw her off, but she banged him down and landed a blow on his nose in addi tion. “Mirandy,” he gasped. “Well, William ?” “Tell that you.'g man to cut off that kaliker.” “That’s right William; that’s put ty !” she said, loosening her grip and extending her hand. “You won’t say anything, Miran dy ?” “Not a whoop.” He scrambled over fhe back fence, and she went in and had the full nuiubei of yards cut off. When ready to go the ohl man was at the door with the mules, a shade of sadness upon his brow, blit still willing to ad mit to tbe clerk: “Mirandy took me by surprise, but it’s all rigid; charge that kaliker to rov account.” John Chinaman Gives llis Views on Politics. —Probably the most curious pair of human beings that have yet bee a seen at the Exposition witness ed tlie show on Monday night. They were Chinamen, clad in flowing robes and sandals, with the inevitable pig tail done up in a double bow-not at the back of their heads. A represen tative of the Trade List, after follow ing them around for some time, came up to them while they were at a stand still on the bridge in Floral Hall. The following valuable and iutei estiog conversation took place: Reporter—Hey John. What do you think of the show ? (Chinaman grins and shows his teeth.) Reporter (in a louder voice) —I say, John, it’s a big show, isn’t it ? C'liuaman—Chow Hi likee Melican man show heap big. Reporter—Good for yon, Chow Hi. Did you ever see anything as big as this in China ? Chinaman —Chow Hi likee Melican man show. Chow Hi likee Melican man Billallen. Melicau man dollee heap good Chinaman. Billallen brick.

And as Chow Hi began to unwring his pigtail at this interesting juncture and indulge iu a series of evolutions (hat were strikingly suggestive of fa miliarity with the sports of the prize ring, the reporter concluded that it was wrong to further molest the son of Confucius, and accordingly depart ed. —Cincinnati Trade List. QUITMAN, OA., THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 30, 1875. How a Snake Charmed a Boy. [From the Reading Eagle. For the last two weeks a son of Al len Rogers, aged eleven years, a wood cutter on the Blue Mountains, about three miles from Hamburg, has been in tbe habit of leaving his father’s house every morning about 9 o’clock, and not returning till noon. The pa rents of tho boy have questioned him several times as to where lie went, and tho boy would reply, to play with a neighboring boy named Springer. On Friday last the father watched his son, and followed at a short distance, and when about a half mile from the house, the boy entered a piece of thick sprout laud, in from tho road some two hundred yards, where he seated himself upon a large rock, and in less than ten minutes the father was horrified on seeing a monster black snake crawl upon the rock and put its head on the boy’s lap. Tlie father states that the snake was the largest he ever saw on the hills. He states that it was easily fifteen feet long, and as thick as his arm, which is well developed. The boy had taken bread with him, and was feeding the snake, which at intervals would s! : ck a large tongue out as if hissing for more to eat. Then it would coil it self around tho neck and body of the boy, and play with its mouth and neck with the boy’s bands. The fath er had often heard of snakes charm ing children, and that if they were disturbed while in the act, they would kill the child. As the father turned to leave his boy with his deadly companion, he turned hack, and the snake hearing a noise, at once uncoiled itself and rais ed its body at least four feet from the rock and looked in all directions, and then it returned to the boy’s lap, and the father returned home and await ed the boy’s return, which was, as us ual, at noon. When told that he had been playing with the snake, the boy said the first morning be met the snake he liked to plav with it; then he look it food, and he was so much pleased with his companion that something iold him that he must meet the snake every morning. One morn ing he said he was late, and when he reached the place the snake was standing up, and it came out to meet him, then followed him to the rock. There is something very strange about a snake charming not only children, but I have read of adults coming under their charm. There is certainly some truth in the fascinat ing poweis of snakes. Oa Saturday morning tho father and two of his neighbors went to the place with guns, and at the usual time the snake made its appearance when all filed at one time, killing the charmer. CheattnO an Innocent Old Man.— One day last month when trade j was dull a Vicksburg grocery clerk | procured a piece of sole leather from ! a shoemaker, painted it black, and : laid it aside for future use. Williin a ; few days an old chap from back in j the country came in and inquired for j a plug of chewing tobacco. The! piece of sole leather was tied up, paid for, and the purchaser started for home. At tbe end of tho sixth day he returned, looking downcast and dejected, and walking into tlie store be inquired of the clerk: “ ’Member that terbacker I got here the other day.” “Yes.” “Well, was that anew brand ?” “No—same old brand.” “Regular plug terbacker, was it ?” “Yes.” “Well, then, it’s me; it’s right here in my jaws,” sadly replied the man. “I knowed I was gittin party old, hut I was alius handy on bitin plug. I never seed a plug afore this one that I couldn’t tear to pieces at oue cliaw. I sot my teeth on to this one, and bit and pulled and twisted like a dog at a root, and I’ve kept biting and pull ing for six days, and thar slie am now, the same as the day you sold her to me.” “Seems to be good plug,” remark ed tbe clerk, as he smelled of the counterfeit. “She’s all right; it’s me that’s fail ing !” exclaimed the old man. “Pass me out some finecut, and I'll go home and deed the farm to the boys, aud git ready for the grave !”—Vicksburg Herald. Atlanta Constitution : “ Tears ter me, Pete,” remarked Si, as the two stood in front of the shop dividing a nickle’s worth of tobaco, “’pears ter me dat de bottom rail is ridiu’ de fence now! 'Tain’t like t’iugs uster wuz when Bullick and all de udder Tublikins was sh assay iu’ Tonn hyar!” “I wuz pesterin’ of myself las’ nite ’bout dat, 100, Pete !

He has chills promptly at ten o’clock ev ery morning, aud several physiciaus are watching the progress of the dis ease upon the canine patient. STONEWALL JACKSON. England Presents Virginia a Statue of the Hero. Richmond, Va., September 23. Fo ley’s statue of General Stonewall Jackson, presented to Virginia by Hon. Beresford Hope, M. P., and oth er English gentlemen, which arrived here last evening from Baltimore, was formally received to-day by Governor Kemper. The people turned out en masse to witness the reception, the streets presenting a holliday appear ance. At 3:30 p. m. the first regiment of Virginia Volunteers and the vet erans of the old First Virginia, and tho Richmond Howitzers proceeded to the wharfs of the Fowhattan steam boat Company where the case con taining the statue awaited transporta tion to the Capitol. It bad been placed upon a wagon and was cover- j ed with flags of Great Britain and i Virginia. Long ropes were attached to the wagon and at the word of com mand tho veterans of tho Old First, together with a largo number of citi- i zens took hold, and, with a portion of the present first regiment at the bead of tho column, took up the line of march, the remainder of the regi ment and Ilowitizers bringing up the rear. Upon reaching the Capitol square, the wagon was drawn to the foot of the steps of the Capitol, where Col. Bradley T. Johnson, commandant of j the first, formally delivered the stat ue to Governor Kemper in a brief speech, referring iu feeling terms to the time, twelve years ago, when he commanded the funeral escort of the true and gallant soldier who was now being honored by the people of Great Britain. Gov. Kemper responded, receiving j (lie statue iu tho name of the people of Virginia, and thanking the soldiers and citizens for the spontaneous hon or which had been done to as true a patriot as ever trod the earth. In do ing this they had done much also to testify the gratitude of fhe Virginians to the noble friends on the other side , of the world, who had sent this great : tribute of admiration and sympathy from the old world to the new- —from Great Britain to Virgiuia. Gov. Kemper, in the name of Virginia, took passession of the gift, receiving it not more as a great sculptor's work of art than a work of English affection for Virginia and her immortal son. In response to loud calls from tbe immense throng present, Mayor Kee lj’ also made a beautiful and stirring speech. Tho case was then placed iu the basement of the Capitol, where i. will remain until the pedestal being prepared iu Capitol square is ready. The statue will be unveiled during the latter part of October, during the State Fair week. The Sort of Revival That is Needed. [From Dr. Cuyler’s article in the Inde pendent.] The revival we need is not only a revival of sounder scriptural preach ing, but a revival of true Christian living. We have had quite a surfeit of the religion which luxuriates in the devout fervors of the prayer meetings and the camp ground, which siugs sweet hymns and applauds sweet ser mons and then goes straight off to its money-grasping and its pleasure seeking, and its panderings to self aud sin. God forbid that we speak lightly of true spiritual emotion. But the Christianity which Christ de mands is something deeper than a ~oug or a sermon or a sacrament It, is the holy and humble imitation of Himself. The revival, then, which we need is a revival of tbe religion which keeps God’s commandments; which tells the truth and sticks to its promises; which pays twenty shillings to the pound ;which cares more for a good character than n flue coat; which votes at tho ballot box in the same di rection that it prays; which denies ungodly lusts, aud which can be trusted iu every stress of temptation. A revival which will sweeten our homes and chasten our press acd pu rify our politics and cleanse our bus iness and commerce from roguery and rottonness would be a boon from heaven. A revival which will bring not only a Bible knowledge but Bible conscience to all is what the land is dying for. The world’s sorest want to-day is more Christ-like men and women. The preaching it needs—is more sermons in shoes. Tubtle-ology.— Mr. M. A. Parsons and his son Everett some time iu (he spring captured a turtle which con tamed fifty-four eggs. These eggs were carefully hurried iu the sand, in a secure spot, and a few weeks ago hatched out, fifty little turtles. These were placed iu a large tub, partly filled with water and mud. Every cool night tho little ones bury them selves in the mud, but in the morning as soon as Master Everett appears with his minnows to feed them, they promptly make their appearance and eat with avidity. —Satisourg ( Md ) Ad vertiser. The fine old Arkansas gentleman is being deprived of his nearest and dearest rights. Because be landed a load of shot in the person of a sheriff recently, who was making some seiz ures, thereby compelling that official to take his meals off’ the mantle piece until he gets well, old Colonel Thomp son was fined fifty dollars by an in sensate and heartless judge. A Woman's First Bean. You knew tho girl of long ngo when she had her first beau at once by her general appearance, says a writer in the Rochester Chronicle, and tho man ner in which she smiled, and the gig gle she giggled, and the way that she talked, that this was the first time she ever had a bean. She was in fact very much excited; and liken person stricken with the first shock of numb palsy, didn’t know exactly how to use her tongue. The blood rushed to her head until there was a tremendous buzzing in her ears, and she recognized all her acquaintances, old and young, and called them by namo iu a loud tone of voice, and wore at the very same time a very triumphant expression of countenance It was a moment of intense eestaey (to her) —a moment looked and long ed for ever since she got into her teens: and all the heroes and hero esses of all the dime novels she had ever road went trooping across her mind like a row of bees in swarming time. Apples and peaches, and hol lyhocks, and mush rooms, and pum kins, and hedge fence, as they hung on trees, or blossomed on stalks, or grew in the grass, or tore her new dress as she swept by them, borne al most from her feet by an electric force, all passed on an accessory pan orama of bliss on her way to the cir cus, that glorious, grand, never-to-be forgotten noonday of her experience. Did she enjoy the show ? Did she remember how the elephant stood on his hind feet? Did she follow tlie flight of the great, unsurpassed, un rivaled wonderful, astonishing, most j daring horseback rider in tbe world, as he dived in a doubled up way through two hoops, and alighted on the horse again right side up ? Was the music the most delightful she had ever heard ? Of course ! Eut seme liow these things got all mixed up in one glorious whirl of delight, in the one glorious fact that she had a beau —a nice beau in black cloth, and a red nectie, and ft stove-pipe hat, and who smoked ft cigar, and bought pea nuts and candy and lemonade every time the man who sold it came around and whispered his goods so softly that the noise of the band and the best ten year old joke of the clown was drowned out of hearing entirely. O, how her little heart went pit-a-pat, and thvobbyty-throp, and bobbyty bob on her way home that glorious afternoon. Extent of the Universe. Since the beginning of this ceu- j tury, our idea of the universe has un dergone a complete metamorphosis, though but few persons appear to recognize the fact. Less than a century ago, the savans who admitted the earth’s motion (some still rejected it) pictured to themselves the system of the universe as being bounded by tho frontier of j Saturn’s orbit, at a distance from the central sun equal to 109,000 times diameter of the earth, or about 800, 000,000 of miles. The stars were fixed, spherically disributed, at a dis tance but a little greater than that of Saturn. Beyond this limit a vacant space was supposed to surround the universe. Tlie discovery of Ura nus in 1875, did away at once with the belt, consisting of Satprn’s orbit, and the frontier of solar domination was pushed out to a distance of 1,900, 000,000 miles from tho center of the system, that is to say, beyond the space that was vaguely supposed to be occupied by the stars. The dis covery of Neptune, in 184(5, again re moved these limits to a distance that would have appalled our fathers, the orbit described by this planet being 2,862,000,000 miles from tbe sun. But the attractive force of tho sun exists still. Beyond the orbit of Uranus, beyond the dark rout slowly traversed by Neptune, the frigid wastes of space are traveled over by the comets in their ernt.ic courses. Of these, some being controled by the sun, do not leap from system to sys tem, but move in close curves, though at a distance far greater than those of Neptune and Uranus. Thus Halley’s comet recedes to a distance of over 3,200,000,000 miles from the i sun ; the comet of 1711,36,000,000,- | 000, and that of 1860, 75,000,000,000. ! The period of the last named comets is 8,800 years. —Popular Sviece Month 'll- An Elephant Story. — Tell my grand-children that an elephant had disease in his eyes. For three days he had been completely blind. His owner, an engineer officer, asked my dear Dr. Webb if he could do any thing to relieve the poor animal. The doctor said ho would try the nitrate of silver, which was a remedy com monly applied to similar diseases iu the human eye. Tbe large animal was ordered to lie down, aud at first, on the application of tbe remedy, raised a most extraordinary roar at the acute pain which it occasioned. The effect, however, was wonderful. The eye was in a manner restored, and the animal could partially see. The next day, when he was brought and heard the doctor’s voice, he lay down of himself, placed bis enor mous head on one side, curled up his Bunk, drew in bis breath, just like a man about to endure an operation, gave a sigh of relief when it was over, and then, by his trunk and gesture, evidently wished to express his grat itude.— Letter from Bishop Wilson.
