A Californian Paradiso.
A correspondent of the Washington
Republican, writing from Los Angeles,
California, describes thohomoof Colonel
Hollister, near Santa Barbara : Colonel
Holistor has about 4,COO acres in this
tract, most of it used for sheep an.l
cattle grazing. His residence is largo,
elegantly furnished, with billiard-room,
library, etc., situated in a glen at the
Inso of tho coast range, facing the sea.
The colonel settled hero about ten years
ago, and ho has an earthly paradiso suro
enough. Fifteen thousand almond trees
will this year yield about ilfty tons of
fruit; twelvo acres of orange trees will
produce about 2,000 boxes of fruit ready
for the market, although but eight years
of ago. You would enjoy tho privilege
of a walk through his well-tilled orange
grove with its rich dark-greon foliage
and great clusters of green fruit, sur
rounded by a great hedge of eucalyptus
and evergreen trees liko a wall
soventy feet high. Ho has also
largo walnut and persimmon and olive
orchards, tho yield of which I did not
learn, About thirty men are employed
on the ranch, and they carry on wagon
making, brick making, blacksmithing,
farming, hording, butter making, ole.
About his residence is an exquisite
(lower garden filled with raro plants,
and over tho vorandas twino jassamines,
roses and other vines in overblooming
fragrance, the wholo liko a gem in a
setting of date palms of largo size,
while in front is an open vista down tho
long carriage-drivo to tho ocean. The
houso is charmingly located in the
mouth of a canon, sheltered from winds
and fogs, at the base of mountains near
ly lour thousand feet high. Almost
every variety of fruits and vegetables
aio giown upon the ranch, and game,
large and small, abounds. Deer, wild
hogs, wildcats, coyotes, quail, rabbits,
squirrels, etc., are found without diili-
culty on parts of the plantation, aud at
nearly every meal some of those are
served upon the tablo.
A Cracked Volcano.
M ithin lho space of ten months
Mount Ltna had live abundant erup
tions of smoko and sand, without any
subsequent flow of lava. In ono in
stance, after profound subterranean
rumblings and numerous earthquako
shocks, there appeared on tho eastern
side of tho mountain a great cloud of
vapors and ashes, which escaped by a
crevice nearly three miles long. The
snows melted suddenly around tho sum
mit of the mountain, jets of hot vapor
escaped at many places, and the small
muddy craters of the western declivity
became very active, as is usually tho
ease on tho approach of a great erup
tion. But to tho surprise of all observ
ers, within thirty-six hours afterward
the volcano had returned to a state of
perfect calm. Such a phenomenon has
never before occurred within tho mem-
oiy of man. Yiconzo Tedeschi di
lircole attributes it to tho existence of
an immense opening which appeared
upon tho mountain at the time of tho
eruption of May 20, 187‘J. He concludes
that a very strong pressure is required
for tho formation of lava, and that a
great tension of gas is indispensable in
order to raise the lava to tho surface of
a mountain. It appears probable, there
fore, that there will be no reason to fear
any further eruption in tho cone of
Ltna as long us the presont crevice is
open.
Owing to the severity of the past
winter in Japan tho deer in some parts
descended from the mountains to the
neighborhood of tho seashore, where
they have been slaughtered by thousands
without any apparent effect upon their
numbers. Venison is, of course, at a
discount under such circumstances, and
a deer’s carcass, worth from twelve to
fifteen yen ns an ordinary rulo, may
now bo purchased in Hakodate for
yon and a half -equal to $1.5(5

RELIGIOUS NEWS AND NOTES.
—
A Notable ('linoluin.
Ed ward .Eggleston, who has a keen
eye for originality of character or hu
manity of soul, recalled some time since
in his vivid way a tignre worth remem
bering amid the throng of actors in the
troubled war time:
Dear Chaplain Joe Little, wlicro are
vou ? It is years since I met you, filled
as you were with philanthropic schemes
for educating tho poor whites of the
South. There may be men more capa
ble of carrying through a practical en
terprise, but there never was a more en
thusiastic, unselfish and hardy spirit.
A college, a theological seminary and
a musical academy all graduated Chap
lain Little, but not all together could
tako tho freshness and tho oddity of his
genius out of him.
When spiritual adviser to a regiment
of wild West Virginians ho told them
stories, sang them funny songs, adopted
their dialect, and won their open hearts
by manly open-heartedness.
When Mosey captured Little it wns
in an unlucky time. Orders had been is
sued on tho Federal sido by General
Pope, I believe, that bushwhackers
should have no quarter, and Mosliy pre
pared to retaliate by shooting prisoners.
“ It looked pretty solemn,” said tho
chaplnin, “when they cast lots to see
who should inherit my horse.”
But he took his little nondescript
harmonium and began to sing for dear
life. All tho droll songs that ever were
invented this doomed eaptivo sang to
tho bushwhackers there in tho moun
tains.
“ I think I ought to shoot you,” said
Mosby at length. " A fellow that keeps
up men’s spirits as you do is loo valu
able to the Yankees for mo to let off.”
Bu t let him off he did. Nobody could
shoot such a combination of goodness
and drollery as Chaplain Little. Once
after a battle a certain church was
turned into a hospital, and wounded
and dying lay all up and down tho
floor. It was n blue time, when men
were dying not of wounds alone, but of
despair, which was liko an epidemic in
the atmosphere. A sevoro chaplain
added to tho terror by passing about ex
horting the poor groaning fellows to
prepare for death. Chaplnin Littlo,
seeing how fatal this despondency must
prove, walked up into tho pulpit, plant
ed his little molodoon on his knees aud
struck up a ridiculous song known as
“ Tho Ohio Girl.” Sunlight enmo in
with tho rich melody of tho chaplain’s
voice and tho humor of his song. Tho
surgeons took henrt, and lifo scorned to
como bnck to battered and homesick
men. But tho austere chnplain in tho
middle of tho houso called out: “Chnp
lain Little, you ought to bo ashamed of
yourself to sing such stuff’ to men who
ought to bo preparing for death."
Whereupon a colonel, who had just had
a leg amputated, raised his head, and
addressed tho last speaker: “Chaplain
Blank, I wish I had two logs, so that I
could kick you out of doors."
ftrllulou* News nml Nolen.
There aro twenty-six Protestant Epis
copal churches in Colorado and not one
is in debt.
In tho United States and Canuda
I hero aro 339 Unitarian churches and
101 ministers, four of them women.
Tho stipends paid to English curatos
vary from next to nothing to $1,500 a
year. Thirty-two receive $400; sev
enty-eight, $500; twenty-two, $1,000.
Four assistant curates recoivo $50 a
year, and 211a nominal sum.
Tho clergy list of tho Church of Eng
land contains upward of 25,000 names.
Those in pastoral sdlvico number only
17,070. Of tlioso 11,180 aro incum
bents resident, 1,500 incumbents non
resident, 387 curates in charge and
1,888 assistant curates.
The oilicial returns of tho Irish Pres
byterian church, recently issued, con
tain much interesting information con
cerning that body. There nre now 032
ministers, 558 congregations, 2,007 oi
lers, (5,083 deacons and 104,7(50 commu
nicants. There are also 1,052 Sunday-
schools, with 8,840 teachers and an aver
age attendance of (it), 8(5(5 scholars.
Tho Religious Herald thinks that tho
little girl who thought that John llall
did not preach, but ouly talked, paid
the great preacher ono of tho best com
pliments ho has ever had; and adds:
“ And yet next Sunday how mauy of us
will be bawling and screaming and
throwing our arms about and stamping
and striking the Bible !”
There aro nine principal Baptist mis
sion stations in China. Tho board of
tho Southern Baptist convention has
three—Canton, Shanghai and Swatow.
The Amorican Baptist Missionary Union
has three—Ningpo, Zoahying and
Swatow. The English Baptists
have two—Taiyuenfu and Tsinge-
howfoo. Tho Soventh-Day Baptists of
the United States have ono—Shanghai.
At these stations there aro something
over 2,000 communicants.
The large quantity of milk used in
manufacturing establishments is re
marked upon by the London Times. In
certain classes of pigmont-printing
work, which is indeed a species of paint
ing—tho colors being laid on the face
in an insoluble condition—so as to pre
sent a full, brilliant face—milk has
been found a convenient and econom
ical vehicle for effecting tho process.
Woolen manufacturers also have long
mado great use of a mixture of olive oil
and milk.
Many a true heart that would have
come back like tho dove to the ark, af
ter the first transgression, has been
frightened beyond recall by tho angry
look and menacing taunt—the savage
charity of an unforgiving soul.
FARM, GARDEN AND HOME.
Vermin on Cattle.
Those troublesome pests attack young
animals in the winter months to a
greater extent than is generally be
lieved. Many of tho remedies are ap
plied so injudiciously as to bo worse
than the complaint itself. Tobacco
water and kerosene and lard aro both
excellent remedies, but it is unsafo to
thoroughly wash an nnimal in cold
weather, and one whose coat is smeared
with tho latter mixture will suffer
greatly with tho cold. The snfest,
surest and cheapest remedy, says tho
American Cultivator, is tobacco smoko,
to bo used in tho following manner:
Tho best instrument for applying tho
smoke is an ordinary hand bellows, such
as may bo found at any hardwaro store,
nud a tube of llussia iron some nine
inches in length and two inches in di
ameter. This can be made by any tin
smith and should consist of two com
partments, one about eight inches in
length to receive the tobacco, the other
about ono inch in length, separated
from tho tobacco compartment by a per
forated piece of strong Bussia iron
nicely fitted in tho tube. Tho end of
this small compartment furthest from
tho tobacco should bo closely stopped
by a thick pieeo of strong metal, cither
copper, brass or iron, fitted with solder,
so as to prevent tho escapo of smoke.
The stopper should have a holo in the
center about one-eighth of nn inch in
diameter, into which should bo inserted
n copper tube about four inches long.
Tho end inserted in tho stopper should
bo about one-eighth of nn inch in di
ameter, while the other should bo only
about tho size of nn ordinary pipestem.
Tho other end of the tobacco compart
ment of tho lnrgo tubo should bo pro
vided with a strong metal stopper, fitted
with a thread, like a nut, so as to re
ceive the stopper. A holo should then
lie made in tho stopper of sufficient size
to admit the end of the bellows nozzle,
to which it should also be fitted by a
thread, and the instrument is ready for
use. Get some cheap tobacco and cut
enough to fill the tube, packing it in
pretty closely, beingcareful that a small
portion of that which is next tho bel
lows is sufficiently dry to burn readily.
Screw the stopple firmly to the nose of
the bellows; take a live, hard wood coal
the size of n small hazel nut and place
it on tho tobacco; screw in the stopper,
with tho bellows attached, working the
elbows gently at tho same time, so as to
keep the coal alive; keep tho bellows
working until smoke comes frooly from
tho small copper tube before leaving tho
fireplace, or you may bo obliged to re
turn and apply a second coat. If tho
animals to lie smoked are cattlo or
horses have them tied in the barn. Be
ginning at tho lower part of tho nook of
the animal, placo the ond of tho small
tube about two inches from tho skin
and blow gently with tho bellows, at the
sumo timo raising the tubo and bellows
so as to drive tho smoko uj> under the
hair as much ns possible. Ono good
blast in a placo is sufficient, and will
cover a strip from one-fourth to ono-lialf
an inch in width. Each timo that tho
bellows is filled tho smoke-tube should
bo placed at tho lower part of tho neck
and about one-fourth of an inch farthe
trom tho head than tho previous blast
was given. It will bo necessary to
smoko tho neck, brisket, ears and roots
of the horns much more thoroughly
than the body, as tlioso parts are gener
ally much more thickly infested with
lice than any other portions of tho ani
mal. After becoming accustomed to tho
use of tho bellows a porson can smoke
four full-grown animals with a single
tubeful of tobacco. If tho tubo clogs
so as to prevent a free discharge of
smoko insert a strong steel knitting
needle through tho small one, and pres
it up through tho tobacco till it reaches
the part that is burning, when it should
bo withdrawn and smoko will follow
To destroy ticks tho assistance of an
extra hand is required in holding the
sheep, and, beginning at the neck, open
the wool a little, then insert tho tube
and blow tho smoke down to the skin of
the animal. It requires hard work and
a strong stomach to smoke a flock of
hundred sheep, but if they are covered
with ticks it will pay to go over them
thoroughly. It will bo much easier to
fight tho ticks at shearing time, but th
farmer who neglected to do so last
spring cannot afford to wait. Colts
should be exumined very carefully by
those who have good eyesight, as they
are not unfrequoutly covered with vory
small, light-colored lice, that cling so
closely to the skin as not to be noticed
at first sight; but an application of the
smoko will bring them to the ends of
the hair and make them sick of life,
will require two or three smokings, at
intervals of a few days, in order to
effectually exterminate lice, as nits are
not affected by smoke, and should be
destroyed so soon after hatching as to
prevent an increase. *
IIOUNCllolll IlilltB,
Dishes should always be rinsed in
clear, hot water after having been washed
in soapsuds.
To remove grease from wall paper,
lay several folds of blotting paper on the
spot, aud hold a hot iron near it till the
grease is absorbed.
Lot the sun have free access to the in
side of tho whole house at some time
during the day, and keep shutters,
blinds and windows open except when it
is necessary to exclude it. Never mind
faded carpets; they are not so bad as
faded cheeks, and these cannot be
avoided without fresh air and ample
daylight.
Emery powder rubbed on to white
.ivory knife handles will effectually re
move any ordinary stain. Should the
stain bo very deop nib first with fine
emery cloth and afterward polish with
emery powder.
A Novel Ready-Made.
Truth may not be stranger than fiction,
but it is often quite as strange, as wit
ness the following story of real life
which, according to the Austrian papers,
will soon be told in one of the courts
of Buda-Pcsth, before which a suit is
now pending which involves tho large
fortune mentioned at the end of this
“novel ready-miulo : ”
In 185- a merchant had a son whoso
extravagance giving him great trouble
he thought it best to obtain him a com
mission in tho Austrian army. The
young man had risen to tho rank of
lieutenant when tho war of 1859 broke
out. Being sent against the Piedmon
tese ho thought proper to desert to the
enemy, but on tho first engagement
ho was captured by the Austrians, and
would have at once been brought before
a court-martial had he not fallen danger
ously ill of a fever. On tho day of the
battle of Magenta ho lay in tho military
hospital there. The hospital was hastily
evacuated by tho Austrians after the
battle, tho patients who were sufficiently
recovered were hurriedly removed, and
tho rest abandoned to the mercy of the
French. There were thus left behind
in ono room tho young S and a
lientonant-colonel of Spanish origin,
Count Rodriguez by name. Between
tho departure of tho Austrians and the
arrival of the French tho latter died,
and young S— .felt himself strong
enough to make such alterations in tho
arrangements of the room that should
indicate that ho himself was tho Count
Rodriguez. The peaco of Villanfranco
found him restored to health and liberty
and in possession of Count Rodriguez’s
papers, cash and name. With this stock-
in-trade our horo Eot up as a man of
fashion in St. Petersburg, where ho
gained tho heart of tho daughter of a
Russian Rear Admiral —, whom, with
her father’s consont, ho married. When
tho young wife was about to become a
mothor the false count proposed that
they should visit his ancestral home.
Ho did not, however, tako her any
farther than Hamburg, whence ho wrote to
his father-in-law to the effect that the
home of his ancestors was, in the French
sense of tho word, a chateau en Espac/ne,
that his real namo was S—, and that ho
was in urgont want of funds. Tho admi
ral at once started for Hamburg ; but
on his arrival found liis son-in-law had
died of thesmallpox. From tho papers
left behind him by tho deceased it ap
peared that ho was the son of a merchant
at Buda-Pesth—a fact which became more
interesting to his father-in-law from his
accidentally reading an official adver
tisement calling upon tho long-lost S-
to appear nnd claim a largo inheritance
left him by his uncle, as in caso of his
not appearing it would be distributed
among tho collateral relatives.

„ „ „ r Washington, D. C., Jan. 0, 1881.
Dn. II. R. Stevens:
Tho great sympathy I have for others who are suf-
lerors trom Cancer and Cancerous Humors impresses
me that it is my sacred duty to write you, although a
stranger to me. For two long years I suffered and
endured the most paiuful torments, from a Cancer,
ot the Breast. My case defied the efforts of the best
physicians. I tried many remedies, when a gentle
man m the office with my husband advised him to
try vour priceless Vegetine ; ho brought home a
hot tie. Before taking half of the first bottle I slept
well nights. I continued taking the Vegetine, gain
ing every day : have taken eighteen bottles, and am
