ELOQUENT AND TELLING SPEECHES BY MAJ. JAMES F. WADDELL AND JUDGE FERN M. WOOD. Opelika, Ala., Nov. 7, 1876. Editors of the Columbus Times: On last ovening our city wag.abioze with patriotic enthusiasm, and therejwas an unusually large turn out of our people to hoar Maj. James F. Waddell discuss tho great polit ical lssuos of tho day, and nobly did he sustain the splendid reputation he has so justly acquired .as' an accomplished orator. Hon. F. M. Wood, by request, opened the fire on the enemy In an oloquont Im promptu speech, which was well received and heartily cheered. Maj. Waddell's spoech was able, eloquent and Interesting, and In vigor of thought, eloganco of ex pression patriotic fervor has rarely boen surpassed. Wo have never seen a more appreciative audience than that which for nearly two hours was enchained by tho eloquence that fell from tho lips of Maj. James F. Waddell, one of Alabama's most gifted speakers. Nobly are our poople battling In behalf of the great cause of reform, and may a beneflcient Providence crown their otforts with success.

Tito town of Gheel, situated In the pro vinoo of Antworp, has been for six centu ries an abode of madmen, and tradition oven takes tho story back elovon centu ries. There wo elovon thousand people In the place, and they havo charge of thir teen hundred lunatics from abroad, who are boarded around in the families and treated witli great consideration. The chlldron from youth are familiarized with the business, and all the peoplo know how to munago those committed to their care. Tho inhabitants are all, so to speak, en gaged in tho surveillance of the lunatics. Ono of the greatest social punishments that can bo Inflicted on a family is to de clare that it is unlit to receive such board ers. The lunatics are disposed of among tho inhabitants according to their wealth or station, wealthy patients being sent Into the better families and poor ones to the poorer. The euros average from sixty to seventy-five to the hundred. Gheel is divided Into four districts, each with its overseer and physician. Large sums of money are spent in the place by the pa tients, and families generally are always desirous of having one or more lunatics on their hands.— Arcade Times. Choice Seed and Feed Oats ®(6•.

A small quantity of either sulphato of Iron, tannin, or chlorate of potash, put dry upon tho tongue, and allowed to dis solve there, once in every hour, have been found most efficient remedies in tho early ages of diphtheria. This terrible disease appears under throe varieties of forms: Ist, There is a fever, sovoro pains in tho back, bones and limbs, and very great prostration. There may be no soreness of the throat, but, on oxarnlnlng It, small white specks will bo noticed on the ton sils, but fow or none on tho rest of the throat. These cases will recover under any and every variety of treatment in four to six days. The groat, but false, reputa tion of many physicians and remedies is based upon necessarily favorable result of those causes. 2nd, Largo patches of false morabrane will bo observed, both on tho tonsils and back of the throat; but the glandsot the nock do not become swollen. The majority of theso c.isos will also re cover under very simple treatment, un less tho diseaso extends down to tho wind pipe, which it rarely does. 3rd, Truo ma lignant diphtheria, with swelling of the glands of the neck under the jaw; pro fuse and often offensive exudations in tho mouth and throat; moro or less discharge from the nostrils. Chlorate of potash is a disinfectant as well as a curativo remedy, and it given pure and dry upon the tongue, every hour, night und day, will rarely dis appoint tho practitioner. A small dose, every night, may act as a preventive rem edy. Sometimes tannin may be given more readily than tho clorate of potash. The sulphate of iron is rather more irri tant, snd must be given in smaller quan tities. Tho main points in tho use of these remedies are to give them dry upon the tonge, and frequently and regularly, botli night and day. The Creeds of Turkey. Two statements from tho East of u very doubtful character—that a general massa cre of all tho Christians in Bulgaria has been agreed upon, witli tho sanction of tho Government in Constantinople, ond that tiie Mohamraodans are secretly be ing organized for tho purpose of destroy ing all the Christians in the Old World. Apparently tho inventors of such reports take it for granted that tho Christians will submit, in both cases—which, to say the least of it, is rather doubtful. It is curious that tho statistics, in various works of reference, differ very materially as to tho number of Mohammedans. Chambers’ Encyclopedia, published in 1863, informs us that "'there are counted about 130,000,000 this day all over the globe who profess Islam.” Frederick Mar tin’s Statesman’s Year-Book estimates all tho world's creeds, with theso Ugures: Mohammedans, 204,000,000; Buddhists, 405,000,000; Christians, 399,000,000; Brali manists, 174,000,000; nondescript “heath ens,” 111,000,000, and Jews, 5,000,000. the Mohammedans there are 40,000,000 un der British rule in India, Mr. Martin tells us, and 17,000,000 under Turkish rule in Europe, Asia and Africa. Thus it appears the followers of tho prophet by no means preponderate, being fewer than the Budd hists and Christians, and very little more numerous titan tho Brahmanists in India. A writer in Fraser’s Magazine for the pres ent month says: “If Christendom seems to tho Asiatio Turks to be making a cru sade against tho orescent, no moral power will remain in the Sultan to restrain the fanatical hatred of Christians which may be aroused in Asia.” New Crop New Orleans Molasses. The first auction salt of importance of the new crop Louisiana molasses took place yesterday, 800 barrels being dispos ed of at 60c to 05 l-2c per gallon, being from the cargoes of the Steamers “Al giers” and “Knickerbockeo,” which ar rived from New Orleans yesterday morn ing. These prices are considerably lower than those ruling at this time last year, when the prices were 80c to 85c. The first installment of the new crop arrived here earlier than usual this season, a lit tle over a week ago, and though the open ing prices wore about the same as those obtained at this time in 1875, there has since been a rapid decline. The crop is expected to be much larger than last year, it it will not exceed the yield of any j'ear since the war.—JV. Y. Bulletin, ith. - ♦ ■—i Go to the Grand Central Hotel, New York.

Hit* Ibr Shape of Ihe Ortaa aoy Musi cal Mlpnt Menace I A wri'er in the London Musical KorW •ay: A recent cursoiy deicription of the well-known Mozartcum, from the pen of an intelligent correspondent of a daily paper, mentions the fact that amongst the intercut ing relics of the divine composer exhibited to the public gaze at Zalzburg, is a drawing of liis ear, showing an abnormally large bell, as though nature intended him to be a gifted listener. It is noteworthy that in all porlraita, except those painted by the un it self, next to the boots, the ear seems to pre sent to the painter the greatest difficulty. It is rarely one sees a shoe beautifully drawn —perhaps it is still rarer that the ordinary covering lor the feet presents anything that can he made beautiful, even by a skillful draftsman. With the ear the observer can not help remarking the same absence ol in dividuality. Anything will do for an car, and a daub or two, that would with equal proprielPhrepreseiit a dried fig or an oyster, would Jo duty for the above organ. In call ing attention to this matter, I venture to sub mit the results of some of my own observa tions, in the hope that something more may be elicited on this, as I believe, most inter ing question. And I shall he extremely glad if any person who is of opinion that my conclusions are premature or erratic will kindly contribute the result of his or her individual experience. Small ears are inva riably under great disadvantage. Large ears are usually indicative of a more com prenensive taste. A narrow harp orbai p like opening always denotes a good car for music. If the harp is very regular you may safely prognosticate a- correct intonation. For a singer, the rim must be very even, and the circle unbroken. Any protuber ance of the rim of the ear will occasion a slight discrepancy of detonation; the singer will not he at all times alike. Some have a double harp; this is dangerous to the success of the singer. A perfect double rim is, on the other hand, highly advantageous. This is, however, open to the weakness of being satisfied with sweet sounds of any kind. The ear without a rim is the most dainty and difficult to please. It appears to receive, almost, as it wete by selection, only the best sounds; ordinary sounds have no at traction of the car. Seeing that we have casts of pianists'hands, would it not be as instructive to have casts of composers’ ears? Surely the one is as important to tha musical student as the other. The Cause of the 'Nploslon. From the Keokuk Constitution.) ‘I would invite you to my house, brudder Jackson,’ said Deacon Johnson, as he emerg ed from church last Sunday evening, ‘but I dunno as well get any supper dis night, the cook stove am so drcffully out ob repair.’ ‘What’s the matter wid de stove?’ ‘Why, you see cold vvedder am cornin’ on and wood’s gettin’ skese an’ high, an’ I’ve ’Btructed de folks to be berry eknomical in de usin’ ob it, Wes’e bin buyin’ in small lots, an’ last night bein’ out ob luel I sent one of my boys ober to a neighbor’s to bor row a few sticks. De man or his family had gone to bed owin to the lateness ob de hour, an’ dat boy, who would ’spise to do a unhonest transaction, wrote out his note for de value ob de wood, an’ droppin' it in a prominent place in de woodshed, shouldered an armful an’ brought it home.’ ‘Jess so.’ ‘Well, a file was kindled, de tea kittle put on, de old woman she is gittin de supper. All ob a sudden’ puff went the stove, zoom; keswish, kusiush went something, and as I tumbled over I saw de ole woman matin’ for de roof wid de tea kittle and the stove plates followin’ her, while de boys an de gals was as black wid smut as de ace ob spades. De stove's goose was cooked for a fact.' ‘What was de cause ob de sploahun?' ‘l’m strongly ’dined to believe dat dar was powuler in dat wood, an' dat de powder was done put dar by dat white man to ketch some thievin’ darkeys wat nebber buys no wood, an’ bressed el I don't think dat man specls me, kase he eouldn't find dat note, and won’t make any ’pologies.’ ‘l)at am an outrage.’ ‘Fora fact, an' de chillen'a supper was spileJ, too.’ Watered Lard ;atid How .to Detect It. Now York Grocer.] There is considerable complaint in some quarters of adulterated lard being crowded upon customers, and circulars have been issued recently by Chicago houses charging this fraud upon Eastern refiners. 1 here are doubtless some of the small refiners engaged in the production of adulterated lard, but the most ot this sort of wash that is put upon the market comes from the Southwestern refineries. In order that dealers may know how to test this spurious article, we subjoin directions for making a simple test for wa ter: Take a clear glass bottle, fill it with the lard to be tested (leaving out the cork); place this bottle about six inches from the stove or fire, and let the lard slowly melt, being very careful not to get it up to the boiling point, as the water would then evaporate; most of the water will slowly fall to the bot tom of the bottle, and the lard now’ melted williiseto the top. By glancing at the amount of water now deposited at the bot tom of the bottle, as compared with the amount of oil (or lard) above it, you can easily tell about how much water there is in the fraudulent article. Should the lard not settle clear, nor precipitate much water, it is an evidence that it is also adulterated with alkali, which serves to combine a part of the water with the lard, making a soap of it, which does not precipitate readily with the water.

Loudon Lancet.] Not to be behind more mundane personages, the suppositious spirits which are so successfully befooling weak-minded mortals have deemed It necessary to Issue diplomas for tho distinguishing, in tho interests of tho human race,true from false mediums. But here Is tv difficulty; the spirits undertake to guarantee tho mediums, but who will guarantee the spirits? We do not know whether any Eng lish mediums have ns yet been hon ored by diplomas. Our information is from ltussiun sources, und espe cially relates to a certain Russian medium, M. Sidoroff, who died not long ago. Among his pupers his execu tors found the diploma, of which tho following is a translation: “Re-iucatnation and evocation of spirits: No. 11. Continuity of life from age to age and world to world. Diploma: The legion of spirits, re cognizing your uniont and unlimited zeal for tho science which reveals tho mysteries of the supernatural power of spirits, consecrate you a medium, in order that you may serve as a link of union between tho material world and the immaterial world, and may transmit to the profane manifesta tions from the spirit world. In token whereof the presentdiploma is conferred upon you. Paris, Jan. 1, 1876. Renurd, Great Pontiff. Gizo, Secretary. Conferred upon Apollon Sidoroff.” How it comes to pass that a Paris inediumistic circle should have been inspired to constitute itself a univer sity for the issuing of spiritual diplo mas will be no mystery to those wno are futnilliur with the progress of mystical studies and speculation in Frunco of late years. Two Notalilc Letters. Senator Gordon, of Georgia, writes a letter to the New York Tribune ex posing the misstatements or igno rance of a Soflth Carolina correspon dent of tho Tribune. Ho shows that instead of Wade Hampton being art original secessionist and lire-ea’er he was almost the only prominent Union man working and voting in the State Convention against the ordi nance of secession; that he was de manding the enfranchisement of the negro and his investiture with citi zenship when Morton was denying that be was capable of exercising the one or of properly enjoying the other. From an able, representative Southern man, it i8 a cairn, dignified statement of the situation from a man who is recognized us truthful and honest by nil who know him. He shows how false and baseless are the accusations ugainst the Demo crats of South Carolina, and how necessary it is for the interest of all the people, white and black, that the Republican government shall be de feated, It is an earnest and effectiive appeal to the Northern people. In the same issue we find a pitiful appeal front ex-Senator Brownlow, idealess, empty and garrulous, with an old'man’s gaze backward toward dangers that environed him lifteen years ago.

A Montana squatter built a small frame shanty on another man’s land, and, when he was requested to move, positively declined to do so. One night a small company of settlers gathered around his cabin while he and his wife were asleep, and, lifting the whole concern, occupants and shanty, with great deliberation and ease, carried it to the river and se' it on a small ralt. Then they pushed the raft out into the stream and cast it adrift. When the squatter got up in the morning he found himself many miles down stream. ■— l 1 • ♦ > Table Damask, Towels anil Napkins The best stock in tho city at octs -eodtf Kirven’s NO NAME! 11 Marietta, Atlanta, Oa. iun2o 4m PIANO AND ORGAN DEPOT.

HUtn and county election*, and which will undoubtedly be the west active and hotly contested of any wince the memorable canvass of 1860, ia now fairly opened. The Na tional Democratic Party will this year make a Wold, vigorous, and doubtless successful strug gle for the* maintenance and supremacy of those principles which are vital to the prosperity of the Republic and essential t r tho well-being of the people.
