Eagle Shut. —The Albany (Ga.) Pat
riot sny6: OiiJSatmdiiy last, Mr. Mont
gomery, ol this city, while hunting near
the month of “Kinchafooncc,” a few miles
above this city, shot a young Grey Eagle,
<*u thcjjwing. It measured five feet eight
inches from tip to tip of wings. It was
presented to us, and next morning prepared
for break fast. Wo found it quite tender,
rind its flavor very similar to that of the
ordinary barn yard fowl. The difference
which we perceived was tiro wild taste of
the Eagle, which does not belong - to the
fowl. —Albany Patriot. *

The people of Savannah have great
cause to be thankful for the excellent

the result of casualties, and the remainder
from causes wholly independent of climat

I'tlolj.ho HoHc and the Liquor Trade.
This merchant is a public benefactor.
There is one spot in the land, where a man
can go and purchase pure liquors of any
kind or description. We do not intend to
give an elaborate description of Mr. Wolfe's
extensive warehouse, or the details of his
enormous business, although it will repay
any stranger in town to visit Nos. IS. 20
&-.21 Beaver street. There we saw Li
quors and Wines in quantities quite start
ling. A stock of Brandies, purb nnd
choice, valued at ($ i.-39,000) one hundred
and fifty thousand dollars. Wines of nil
the choicest vintage, Port, Madcria, Sher
ry’, valued at ($130,000) one hundred and
thirty thousand doll.us, imported by Mr.
Wolfe direct from Maueria, Portugal and
Spain, and also from the London docks.
Mr. Wolfe is now doing in Wines-and
Liquors, what be has been doing in Gin
for several years past.
His Schnapps business has increased,
until now his sales amount to (180,000 doz.)
one hundred and eighty thousand dozen
of bottles of Schnapps annually. In five
years he will be equally successful with
his Brandies nnd Wines. Heaven grant it
may be so, for he is doing a world of good.
How many’ thousands of our most clever
men are cut off annually by the poisonous
bad liquors! How many thousands of
valuable lives would have been saved, had
Mr. Wolfe commenced importing and bot
tling pure Liquors and Wines years ago?
But it is not too late now. His business
merits the partonage of every lover of his
species. If he only succeeds in preven
ting the sale of one-tenth ofthe bad liquors
now sold, by replacing it with bis pure
importations, bo will deserve the gratitude
of mankind.— New York Courier.
Faskinablc Women.
Fashion kills more women than toil and
sorrow. Obedience to fashions is a greater
trangression of tho laws of woman’s nature,
a greater.injury to her physical and
mental constitution, than the hardships of
poverty and neglect. The slave woman
at her task will live and glow old, and
see two or three generations of her mis
tresses fade and pass away . The washer
woman with scarce a ray of hope to cheer
her in her labors, will live to see all her
fashionable sisters die around lier. The
kitchen maid is hearty and strong, while
her lady lias to be nursed like.a sick baby.
It is a sod truth that fashion pampered
women are almost worthless for all the
great ends of human life. They have
but little force of character; they have
still less power of moral will, and quite as
little physical energy. They live for no
great purpose in life ; they accomplish no
worthy ends. They are only doll-forms
in the hands of Milliners and servants, to
be dressed and fed to order. They dress
nobody, bless nobody, and sa\ e nobody.
They’ write no books and set no example
of virtue and womanly- life. If they rear
children, servants and nurses do all, save
to conceive and give them birth. And
when reared, what are they 1 What do
they- amount to hut weaker scior.s of the
stock? Who ever heard of a fashionable’
woman's child exhibiting any virtue or
power of mind for which it became emin
ent ? Read the biographies of our great
and women. Not one of
them had a fashionable mother. They
nearly all sprang from strong minded wo
men who had about as little to do with
fashion as with the changing clouds.
iUckens and Flowtrs*
Mr. Charles Dickens lias been discours
ing very eloquently about flowers, at the
ninth anniversary of the Gardeners’ Royal
Benevolent Institution. Ws give a short
extract from bis beautiful address: “Gar
dening,” he said, “was invariably con nec
ted with peace and happiness. Gardens
are associated in our minds witli all coun
tries, all degrees of men and all periods of
time. We know that painters, and sculp
tors, and statesmen, and men of war, and
men who have agreed to nothing else,
have agreed in all ages, to delight in
gardens. We know that the most ancient
people of the earth had gardens; and that
where nothing but heaps of sand are now
found, and arid desolation now reigns,
gardens once smiled, and the gorgeous
blossoms of the East once shed theirlrag
rance on races which would have long
ago been forgotten but for the ruined tem
ples. which in those distant ages stood in
the gardens. We know that the ancients
wore crowns of flow ers; and the laurel and
the boys have stimulated many a noble
heart to deeds of heroism and viitue. We.
know that in China hundreds of acres of
gardens float about the rivers; and, indeed
in all countries, gardening is the favorite
recreation of the people. In this countiy
its love is deeply implanted in the breasts
of every body ; we see the weaver stri
ving for a pigmy garden on bis housetop;
we see the poor man wrestling with the
smoke for his little bower of scarlet run
ners; we know liow very many who have
no scraps of land to call then- own, and
never will have, until they lie in their
length in the ground, and have passed for
ever the portals of life, still cultivate their
favorite flowers or shrubs in jugs, bottles
or basins; we know that in factories and
workshops we may find plants; and J Lave
seen the poor prisoner; condemned to lin
ger year after year within ‘tlie narrow
limits of his place of confinement, garden
ing in his cell. Os the expoue. ts of a
language so universal; of the patient fol
lowers of Nature in their efforts to produce
the finest forms and the richest colors of
her most lovely creations, which we enjoy
alike at all times of life, and which, wheth
er on the bosom of beauty or the breast of
old age, re alike beautiful, surely it is
not too much to say that such men have a
bold upon our remembrance, when they
theftiselvcß need comfort.”
Hern an Chali.inged.-A Georgia plan
tor who signs himself “Joel Belview, has
forwarded the following challenge to Por
ter's Spirit of the Times:
“1 purpose to match a negro boy named
Shadrick, belonging to me, against John
C. Ileonan. in a ring fight, for any sain of
money ranging from one to ten thou
sand dollars, the fight to cotna off in twelve
months from tbis date. The boy weighs
1924 pounds, six fret two inches high, and
27 years old.
If Mr. Ilfenan sees fit to accept the
above challenge, 1 propose that it be left to
you, the precise time, place, and terms, on I
which the fight shall take place,
1 will ifrpnait with you a eberk for the I
amount, if Mr. H. consents to wager, pro*
vided that amount is over one thousand
dollars.”
The editor of the Spirit in reply says—
"lf you will send twenty-five hunc:cd dol
lars to bind tie match for ten thousand, we
think we can promise you a chance with
the renouned Champion ”
‘Tomato v* as Food for Cows. —The fol
lowing from the Ohio Farinei is in point:
Not being a farmer, in the true senseof
the term, though somewhat given to the
use of the hoe, the spade, and the pruning
knife. I am led to notice with some atten
tion the various processes and results of
vegetation. Though my domainbe small,
and hence my observations limited in
point of space, they may perchance be
none the less accurate, and they- fruits, if
not marked hv great results, may tend to
induce thought on the part of others.
Among other things that have assumed
to me the form of facts, one is that as feed
for stock, and especially for milk cows,
there is no vegetable superior to the
tomato, The evidence of this was mani
fested during the past fall. Having in
my garden a surplus of these, I resolved to
try their efficiency as feed, and according
ly gave them to my cow, (the only kind
of animal I had to feed them to,) and
found that they not only caused her to
give a fy>od supply, but a rich quality of
milk. They were fed in all their various
conditions, from the green to the ripe state,
and many of them after having been fro
zen. The results did not seem to be
changed by the condition in which they
were fed. Not having the proper facili
ties, therefore, 1 did not cook them, though
I believe their value would be much im
proved thereby.
These arc plain and simple statements,
and I trust the readers ot the Farmer will
test their value iu a practical way during
the coming season, and let us hear from
them.
A New Mystery—A House that will
Burn Aiyhow. —The Taylor Falls (Wis.)
Rcportc i tells the following :
We Jearn from Mr. Joseph F. Corey,
who resides at East Lake, Polk county,
Wis., the following facts, which we givo
our readers, and, strange as they may ap
pear, we doubt not their truth in any par
ticular, as they were authenticated by
many witnesses upon whose veracity, as
upon Mr. Corey’s, we place implicit con
fidence.
On Tuesday, June 26, while Mr. Corey
and his two sons were at work in a field
near his house, their attention was arrest
ed by smoke, which appeared to rise from
his stable. They hurried to the barn as
quickly as possible, and di: covered a pile
of stjiiw near by on fire, “'his was im
mediately extinguished, and as they were,
returning to the field, the stablo caught in
different places, which by considerable
exertion, was put out. Before, however,
they had left the premises, another fire
was discovered underneath the granary,
in a pile of beards. The bottom board
was burned nearly through, but the oth
ers were not even scorched. After this
was put out, Mr. Corey sent one of the
hoys into the house to ascertain whether
all was safe there. He immediately came
out nnd told his father that the house was
on fire, Mr. Corey immediately rail up
stairs, where he found some clothes that
his wife had laid away the day before
were burning. They were thrown out ol
the window, and from that time until late
at midnight the fire 1 roke out'all over the
house. First, a paper would catch, then
a.mosquito bar, then a straw lied.
ana it was only by the utmost ( xertions of
Mr. Corey, aided by two gentlemen, Mr.
Hale and Mr. Treadwell, that the build
ing was saved. Tho flic contained at in
tervals until Sunday, the Ist inst., and at
tracted many visitors. Wo shall not at
tempt to give any cause for this wonder

More Metro? s Coming-A scientific cor
respondent of the Philadelphia Ledge?
says that the week beginning the 16th,
and ending the 23d of July, was favorable
to the production of electrical phenomena,
and on the 19tli and 20tli, the Aurora was
beautiful, quite unusual for July; the
meteor of the 20th was magnificent. Con
ditions will be again favorable during the
week from the 15th to the 22d of August,
and from the 12th to the 19th of Septem
ber; and those who have leisure will,in
all probability, bo highly entertained,
should they look heavenward on the
nights of those clays, particularly the 16th,
17th, and 18th of August: the 14th, 15th,
and lGth of September.
—Mrs. Hannah Church, who, with her
arged husband, is well known to all the
excursionists on the Baltimore and Ohio
Railroad, died on the morning of the 27th
ult., at her bumble borne near Littleton
Station, Wurtzel connty, Va., at the ad
vanced age of one hundred and live years.
Her husband, Henry Church, aged one
hundred and nine years, is still living, but
is in very feeble health.
The Word Zoua re.—The word “Eouave”
is generally and incorrectly pronounced
as a word of two syllables. It should be
spoker. as if writ Zwavc, the a having the
Italian sound as in “fau.”, The name is
derived from the Arabic Zouanna, a con
federacy of tbe.Kabyle tribe, who live on
the mountains back of AlgicrsJ The orig
inal Zouaves in the French service, were
composed of Arabs from the country near
Algiers.
The Oldest Man. —ls what Mr. Solomon
Pangborn, of Rising Sun. Ind., says, is
tine, lie may rightly claim to be the oldest
man iu the United Sfates. He says liat
lie was born in the City of New Yoik, a
small town of five or six hundred bouses,
in 1728. Heis consequently 135 years eld.
Corn in Illinois. —The Chicago Press,
speaking of the corn crop in that State,
says :
“We daro not repont the estimates, sc*
berly made by competent moti, outlie sur
plus corn which Illinois can spare out of
the crop now maturing; hut this year
exaggeration would ho difficult. Wc can
only say that there will be no famine in
this or any other land which our commerce
will reach.”

A Tribute to American Missionaries. —
At tlie late London anniversary, the Earl
f>f Shaftsbury paid thefolleving tribute to
the American missionaries :
“I do not believe that'in the whole his
tory of missions, I.do not believe that in
the history of diplomacy, or in the history
of any negotiations carried on between
man and man. we can find anything to
equal the wisdom, the soundness and the
pure evangelical truth ofthe body of men
who constitute, the American mission. I
have said it twenty times before, and I will
say it again, for the expression appropriate
ly conveys my meaning—that ‘they are a
marvellous combination of common sense
and piety.’ Every mar. who comes in
contact with those missionaries speaks in
praise of them. Personsin authority and
persons in subjection all speak in their
favor; travellers speak well of them ; and
I know of no man who has ever been able
to bring a single valid objection against,
that body. There they stand, tested by
years, tried by their works, and exempli
fied by their friends : ana I believe it w ill
be found that these American missionaries
have done more toward upholding truth
and spreading the. gospel of Christ in the
East than any other body of men in this
or any other age.”
Fire. —On Monday night, about one
o'clock, tlie house occupied by Mr. Salvage
and R. Y. Mooi eon one of the back streets
near the Court House, W’as discovered to
be on fire. The bouse was pretty well
fille 1 with smoke before the family awoke;
they were, consequent!}’, too late to res
cue much of their furniture. In fact, we
believe nothing was saved except a f. w
wearing clothes. Mr. Duncan occupied
bouse adjoining Mr. Salvage. He removed
every tiling from bis hot&e and quietly
waited until it burnt down.
We think tlie bouse could easily have
been saved bad there, been water on the
premises. We do not believe that there
was any insurance on either building.—
The bouse occupied by Mr. Salvage was
owned by a Mrs. Peck. Both houses were
small, but are a considerable loss to the
parties interested.
P. S. Mr. Duncan, we learn, had insur
ance of three hundred dollars.— Rome

been afflicted with Liver Complaint for six years, du
ring which I was never well, and much of the time
very sick. My liver was sore to the touch, and the
Doctor* said was congestion I suffered from severe
costiveness and Diarrhoea ultimately. My skin was
clammy and unhealthy; my eye* and skin often rel
low. Occasionally I had a’ voracious appetite, but
generally npne at'all. A dicadful sensation of op
pression on my stomach, with languor and a gloomy
sensation Os sickness all over, kept me in anguish.—
You cannot know how mnch I suffered from an inde
scribable feeling of distress. The long continuance of
this condition, without relief, had worn me out so
