The following table shows the quantity

The shipments in November and De

ments of 1870, those of November and
December, 1870, to the shipments of
1871, and so on, inasmuch as these be
long to the business season iu which they
are included.
The above is taken from a recent num
ber of the Charleston News. It shows
the increase this year over last of the
quantity of fertilizers shipped from
Charleston over the South Carolina Rail
road up to date. From all the informa
tion which we have received, the same
ratio of increase has been noticed in the
shipments of other railroads, anti the
sales by dealers. The planters all over
the South are using large quantities of
fertilizers, and planting a great deal of
cotton. Whether this policy will pay re
mains to be seen. The planters are per
haps the best judges, as they have had
ample experience since the surrender.

GYMNASTICS IN THE CLOUDS.
A Foolhardy Feat,
The Reading (Pa.) Eagle gives the
following account of the exploits of one
of those demented idiots who do the
sensational on a grand style :
“ After several feints on the part of
Prof. Donaldson to make his first Spring
balloon ascension, the inclemency of the
weather having been the sole cause of the
postponement, the asronaut., Tuesday,
determined to have no more disappoint
ments, filled up his veteran cambric bal
loon, the Magenta, and with it, made
his twenty-ninth journey to the clouds.
“ It was his original intention to as
cend in a paper balloon, but owing to
the cold weather and the stiffness of the
varnish on its surface he was compelled
to postpone it until some time during
the warmer months. The Magenta is a
cambric balloon, with a capacity of
about 10,000 cubic feet of gas, and capa
ble of raising about 350 pounds, inde
pendent of its own weight.
“The inflation commenced before
noon, and in a short time the customary
throng of sight-seers arrived on Penn
Sou are and congregated about Misliler’s
Globe Building, in front of which the
main gas pipe was attached to the bal
loon. By one o'clock Penn street was
lined with anxious people from Fourth
to Eighth streets, and notwitstanding
the raw and chilly state of the atmos
phere, the housetops, porticoes, win
dows, balconies, and every available spot
was filled with men, women and chil
dren to witness a repetition of the fright
ful work that so astounded them one
short year ago,
‘ ‘The wind was blowing a gentle breeze
froul the Northeast, and the heavy
clouds that hung over the city indicated
rain. It became more chilly, and the
predictions were ‘Donaldson won’t go.
but liis inflation continued, and at half
past two o’clock the gas was turned ofi',
ual the balloon wa* prepared to leave.
In order to have a clear.*.# space, the air
i fiiip was removed to the op*-„ square,
* ■md at twenty minute?*, before tiri'cc
I o'ci. „i, the serial gymnast and accom
pUs'acil twopaut, without basket or any
thing save a fragile looking trupreze bar
fastened by two slemUfJ’ ropes to the bal
mon ring, appeared beforetim multitude
in silk tights. Examining e
thing properly, fie clutched the bar with
his left lsS£d, gave the word ‘let her go,’
and away iutp the air darted the
‘Magenta’ with tfie faring Donaldson
hanging with one hand to tli* 'oar,
“While ascending, the Aeronaut waved
his handkerchief to the multitude, and
upon reaching an altitude of several
hundred feet lie revolved ’round and
round, and gracefully took Liz seat upon
the bar. After a short rest, the aeronaut
proceeded to go through the niost fright
ful gymnastic feats. White the balloon
was making its way to the cloud*, pud
Yp u a thousand feet in the air, Don
mason placed the bar under his back,
and with ha*4a qnd feet extended, pre
"'■nted a picture frightful in the ex
-1 '" n . le - few moment* later, and he

mood curdling feats ever attempted <y
man. from the position of laying on
trapeze lie dropped backward, head
fu-st, gud caught himself by his toes,
and thus hanging, head downward, lie
ascended high in {ne air still waving his
mxtmkerchief to the horfOi'-Atnckeu B?ul
btude below.
"1 pon reaching an gUitude of’ u half
Donaldson was seen mounting the
ri ggiug of liis balloon, when he pro-
Ct led to dress himself. His actions
yr plainly visible through a strong
; i 1 glass, fir? balloon took a soutli
■’•'esterly course, and when seen en-
a heavy rain cloud it lgu) eucouu

Emperior William’s Birthday.
Last Saturday Berlin gave herself a
holiday. All the public and private
buildings were dressed in festive bunt
ing ; arches bearing appropriate mot
toes spanned the principal thorough
fares ; the air reverberated with the
thunder of joyous artillery ; strains of
inspiring music mingled their sweetness
with the hoarse voice of Krupp’s death
dealing guns ; the people, clad in their
best attire, thronged the streets and
avenues, gathered in dense masses
around the palace, and shouted until
the stout walls of the imperial dwelling
rung again. In response to this im
promptu greeting a window was flung
up, and there stepped out upon t.lie
broad balcony an old man, whose erect
form, flashing eyes and vigorous move
ments showed that, although the snows
of seventy-six Winters whitened his
venerable head, age had not withered
nor time decayed his physical strength
or intellectual energy. The uniform he
wore sat easily upon one who was liter
ally cradled in the army of which he is
so proud ; the stars and crosses and
medals shining upon his breast were fit
ting ornaments of the veteran of so
many wars, and spoke of honors given
and received; the heavy sword swinging
at his side was no plaything of parade,
but a stout weapon which had been
wielded by a stout arm in many a des
perate fray, and the xvliole bearing and
demeanor of its owner betokened the
soldier rather than the monarch. As he
bowed liis grateful recognition of the
plaudits of the multitude, and saw in
their eager, happy faces the evidence of
high* respect and ardent affection ; as
lie looked around upon the monu
ments of that transcendent glory which
has been achieved under liis auspices ;
as he thought of the past, so dark, the
> present, so bright, the future, so full of
promise—we can easily believe that the
heart of Emperior William throbbed
with honest exultation, and he felt that
his long and eventful life had been
crowned with grander and more com
plete success than usually falls to mor
tal lot.
What a vast amount of history is
crowded into the seventy-six years which
lio between March 22, 1797, and March
22, 1873 ! When the gallant old chief,
lyhope natal anniversary has just lyepn
celebrated, was launched upon the stage
where he has just played so distinguish
ed a part, Europe had not yet ‘recovered
from the shock of the French revolu
tion. The throne of the Bourbons was
broken into fragments; fho very frag
ments were drenched with tka blood of
royal Louis and liis more royal wife, the
political machinery of France, torn from
its original grooves, was running at
lightning speed toward an anarchy in
finitely worse than the tyranny it sup
planted; liberty had degenerated into
unbridled license, and the nation, es
caped from its ancient bondage, was
looking vainly for some master sjiirit
j Avho could bring order out of confusion,
j peace and safety out of ‘chaos. The
J master spirit had arrived, but was not
! yet recognized. While baby William
i was whimpering •in his nurse’s arms, a
I pale-faced, hollow-eyed young man of
twenty-eight was reducing war to a
{ science on the plains of Italy. When
j baby William had gone through the
I perils of teeth-cutting, this young man
j had grown to be first consul of France.
; When urchin William had attained to
the dignity of boots and breeches, the
first consul had blossomed into an Em
peror, and, before boots and breech
es had time to soil, the Emperor
j and his hosts were camped in Berlin,
and Prussia grovelled at the feet of
! the relentless invader. The scenes
which marked that era of his country’s
disaster and* humiliation were literally
j burned into the soul of the child; he
never forgot them, never will forget
1 them while memory lasts. Os boyhood,
William had none. At an age when
most youths are thinking of nothing
beyond the drudgery of study and the
delights of play, he was musing over
the misfortunes of liis native land,
praying and waiting for the hour of
redemption. At an age when striplings
are coining sonnets to their mistress’
eyebrow, or diving deep into the myste
ries of the tailor’s and hairdresser’s art,
William was seeking the bubble reputa
tion at the cannon’s mouth, and con
fronting L*ppje.cjn in those terrible
campaigns which (<•* luinust-d the career
of the modern Gmsar. lie the
victor of Jena and Auerstadt crushed
into nothingness by Prussia’s timely
aid at Waterloo; lie saw Blucher’s
triumphant legions marching through
tW oG\c,o.t£ of Paris—he may have
hoped, but did not dream,
that his own legions tvouiu, o.n the
ruins of another Bonaparte dynasty,
march through the same streets and
enjoy a far more magnificent renown.
Long after William had reached man
hood AmpWi was nothing better than a
third-rate living upon
the deeds of dead Frederick. yif :
managed to survive the awful ordeal ot
the Napoleonic wars, but was scarcely
more i*;>n the ghost of her former self
—a ghost So PQo” and wretched that the
occupant of trie tomb at Pgfsdam would
have wept at the dismal plight of bis
beloved Prussia. William may speak of
Prussian regeneration as something “all
of which ) ;iw and part of which I was”
Tor Prussian regeneration, bpyuu ip his—
presepce? was assisted by lus efiorts, and
has been consummated during his reigp.
It is twelve years nincc he suepeeged to
the crown, ‘ but the glittering orb of
sovereignty which he put upon his head
at Konigsberg has a more dazzling lustre
than in, 1861. Pare jewels have been
adduct «.q i‘ smee then—Sadowa, Grave
lotte and Sedan ,ao there ; but
these precious rubies, plucked iimm jibe
red lingers of battle, are outshone an
hundred fold bv the priceless diamond
of German unity. It would have been
glory enough for William to have shat
tered the ‘military prestige of Austria
and destroyed the military prestige of
France; but when the same blows v Inch
accomplished these results welded the
golden chain which binds together
united Germany, he surely lias a right
to claim a richer chaplet of laurels than
ever twined about the brows of a prince
of the house of Hohenzollern.
Dmperer William, like many who
have gone betory many who will
come after hint, has “bunded wiser
than he knew.” Standing ori that balco
ny I*4 Saturday, listening to the wild
! applause of the imperial capital, lie
I probably saw nothing beyond the splen
did empire constructed under his super
vision by men of larger brain than him
self. But the real architects of this em
pire, those who have watched it most
closely and studied its pith and mean
ing most carefully, see in its possibili
ties which William never guessed and is
totality * liable even to comprehend. The
German empire embodies German unity
and German glory now; it is the forerun
ner of German republicanism ana Ger
man democracy in the broadest and best
sense of those much-abused words, re

The Port Royal Railroad.
The following relates to an erroneous
statement made in our columns, by a
correspondent, respecting the Port
Royal Railroad Company-, which de
serves a very different classification
from that given it by ‘‘Deutschland,”
the writer alluded to :
Editor New York Daily Bullitin :
In your edition of the 24th inst.,l
notice a communication from ‘'Deutsch
land,” relative to American securities
negotiated in Germany, in which he
states, among other tilings, that, the in
terest on the first mortgage bonds of the
Port Royal Railroad Company had not
been paid. In a subsequent communi
cation, under date of the 27th lust., he
retracts this statement, and I am only
at a loss to understand how it ever came
to be made, as nothing in the history of
road or of its securities warrant it.
I he present owner* took possession of
the property when some thirty miles
were finished, since which time
the work lias been steadily pushed
to completion, and the road to-day is
operated throughout its entire length
(horn Augusta, Ga., to Port Royal, S.
C., with a controlling interest in the Sa
vannah and Charleston Railroad), and
with more business offering than can be
accommodated. The equipment j.s large
and being steadily added to, and the
company has no floating debt, which is
more than can be said of most new
roads.
lljo parties interested are wealthy
capitalists of New York and Boston,
who hold, as investments, the larger
part of the securities ot tne company,
knowing that the road must, from its
position, become of great value iu the
future; and I think they- are fully justi
fied in this belief from the fact tiiat it
opens up to the products of the West
and Southwest another avenue to the
Atlantic, through the ports of Charles
ton, Savannah and Port Royal, and
makes, with its oouQgc.tions, the Geor
gia, Western and Atlantic, Nashville
and Chattanooga, and the St, Louis and
Southeastern Consolidated Railroads—
the shortest possible route from St.
Louis to the ports above named.
Negotiations are now on foot to es
tablish sLam.-Lip lines from the ports of
the North and ot Uiiwpo to Port
Royal, with flattering prospect* of suc
cess; all of which must necessarily con
tribute to the prosperity of the Port
Royal Railroad Company and to the
Value us its securities.
A u Gated in the retraction of ‘ ‘Deutsch
land,'’ nr, I'niefvsf has ever been passed
on any bond of tnii> yornpany, and I
think I am justified in saying, Mr.
Editor, none ever will be, as long as the
present responsible parties retain a con
trolling interest in its management.

A Dead Man’s Brain Transferred to a
Living Subject.
[New York World's Paris Letter.]
Hardly has the excitement and fierce
incredulity of the Paris savans respect
ing the experiments of Professor Muller,
of Weissnicht, on revivification had time
to cool before another series of experi
ments by the same physiologist, and no
less respectably authenticated, startles
the world of science. It is necessary to
premise that the views of physiologists
respecting the mode of'activity of the
brain have recently undergone great
modification, and the correctness of the
modern ideas is fully supported by the
experiments to which we refer. It was
formerly imagined, and is still largely
taught that the activity of the brain de
pended upon the forces liberated by cer
tain cells iu the gray matter of that
organ, which were supposed to be the
seat of very active changes demanding
an abundant supply of blood. Nerve
force was supposed to be set at liberty
in these cells, its liberation being at
tended with the production of heat.
But these views have not been abl“ to
endure the close scrutiny to which the
brain has recently been subjected. The
microscope has shown that these cells,
these supposed nerve-force producers,
are only a means of interchange of ner
vous filaments, a provision for the dis
tribution of telegraph wires, as it were,
not active centers, not batteries liber
ating vital force of any kind. It has
been proved that in death from star
vation, when the stomach has been
unable to receive, retain or digest
food, while all the rest of the body
loses weight, such is not the case
with the brain substance proper.—
Iu cases of sudden death the muscles
have been found producing heat long
after life is extinct, while in the brain
no heat is liberated after death, al
though the brain may be gorged with
blood. The inference drawn from these
facts, as well as from the integrity of
the brain in all manner of disease, is
that the organ is one of sluggish nutri
tive changes, an inert instrument, play
ed upon by forces which have their ori
gin elsewhere than in the brain-matter.
Furthermore, nerves and brain-sub
stance, when divided; reunite us readily
as tendon, or skin, or mucus membranes,
and the nervous phenomena interrupted
by the wound or section are re-establish
ed when the wound has healed. All
physiologists agree on this point. And
as skin, or pesiostfor mucus mem
brane can be transpiafed, as surgeons
well know and constantly demonstrate
in practice, can not nervous tissue, be
subjected to the same process'? So
reasoned our experimenter, and these
preliminaries vill show that Professor
Muller’s experinjouts were legitimated
by strict scientific reasoning and re
search. Professor Muller, after having
transplanted or transferred the hemis
pheres of the brain from one animal to
another of the same species in the high
er animals (mammals —dogs, cats, Ac.),
and having engrafted the brain so as to
produce the manifestations of cerebral
activity, secured at length the opportu
nity of performing the same experiment
in man, and with the results which it is
the objects of this letter to detail. I
give the facts as recorded in the Gazette
Jlembdomadaire, taken from Virchow's
Arc/iives, a medical journal published
at Beilin.
It was at Leipzig that Lnc
was performed. A soldier who had
killed the colonel of his regiment in cold
blood, and whom the severity of Prus
sian military discipline would have
caused to die a hundred deaths, had it
been possible, was deliberately handed
: over to the surgeons, by sentence of
j court JhurffeL and was confined in a
j strong room iii the miiLary hospital, en
i tirely in the dark as to the fate which
awaited him. He was kept there ready
for an emergency, which did not fail to
occur, A keeper of a beer cellar in
i Leipzig, a man resembling in many re
| spepts the condemned soldier, and who
j had heou ZQige/l with acute inflamma
tion of the heart, o* lathe* in u,. invest
ing membrane, was brought to the hos
pital to die of that incurable and
promptly fatal malady. No sooner had
the anticipated death taken place than
; the dead saloon keeper was placed on a
table by the side of another operating
table, Q n ylueli was the chloroformed
but living body ot to* fcuidfer Two
surgeons, with assistants, proceeded
alike in both cases, to divide the scalp
over the summit of t-lie skull from ear to
ear, turn back the divisions and remove
the scull-cap by incisions passing around
the sgiil 1 like if ciown. |hp gol
dier, whose carotid arteries had been
prepared for compression, these ves
sels were clamped, sy as to ju’event
hemorrhage, and but few drops of blood
were lost during the entire operation. In
each the dura matter was incised, and
the hemispheres of the brain w-ere re
moved by an incision with a sharp, thin
bladed knife passing above the cerebel
lum, or a narrow portion of about tw-o
inches in diameter called the crura cere
bri. The brain of the saloon keeper,
w-liicli was sound, the heart disease hav
ing left it intact, lie having been sensi
ble to the last was transferred to the
skull of tli e soldier by an ingenious con
trivance, fully detailed in the Gazette,
Hie continuity of the arterial and venous
tubes was established. The greatest
care was taken in securing the natural
adaptation of tne pm is to g laction of
a line, and the skull, having been re
placed simply, was held down and in
position by the scalp, which was drawn
over, and its edges confined by strips of
adhesive plaster, and over all was placed
a bandage. It nut tnnu bisyetatuays
had passed that the pressure upon the
carotid arteries was entirely relaxed, al
though before the skull was replaced
flie flow-of blood in the vessels of the
brain was Droved to be vrsfe"':’ fhp
chief fear nvas from the 'reSirltir of in
flammation and suppuration, but fortu
nately neither ensued, and the wounded
parts healed kindly. There was from
the first no difficulty in feeding the pa
tient, mu wiis difficulty anticipated, for
it is well known that in puppies and kit- j
tens in which the entire brain has been !
removed, sucking and swallowing go on ;
as well as before the operation, and in
this cn.'O tiie nervea which preside over
deglutition and digestion wove farjbelow j
the point of suetidh. The patient re- |
maiued in a sound sleep for two weeks, !
as in a case of apoplexy, the circula- j
tion, digestion and all the vegetative '
functions of life being uninterrupted. !
The gradual union of the parts was I
showp ny fax lit but- gradually iimreasing j
movements of the limba, cf the jaws and j
of the muscles of expression in the face, j
Speech did not become possible until j
the close of the third week, and then it I
was hesitating, stammering, as a child j
learns. Although it was evident that |
the patient tried to utter words and sen- j
fences, it very gradually tnat the j
power of intelligible articulation re- j
turned.
The Gazette c ntains the report, in a
tabular form, of the increasing voluntary
power over the arms and hands, as
measured from day to day by the dyna
mometer, the measurements given in
kilogrammes; also the daily temperature
of the limbs, as shown by" the thermo
meter in degrees of centigrade; also the
returning spnsibjljtjf of tipp fjngprs and
lips, as given by an instrument called
aisthesiometer; but I omit these, as your
readers will be interested in the main
facts only.
When speech became intelligible, it
was found that the soldier, as lie seemed,
had forgotten entirely Lis military train
ing and discipline; on the other hand,
lie told at a formal examination, in the
presence of witnesses, the price's of all
the wines and beers, such as the saloon
keeper had been in the habit of buying
and selling, manifesting the unimpaired
cerebral activity of the latter. His
memory recalletl the saloon-keeper’s
relatives, friends and customers, whom
he called by name. The soldier had
been ugly, taciture, revengeful; he now
had the saloon-keeper’s frankness and
even garrulity, in spite of his stammer
ing utterance. He was totally blind.—
Although the nerves of smell and sight
had been approximated in the operation,
they failed to unite. It was both sad
and strange to see and hear the soldier
groping hi hia infirmity of blindness
and giving proof of all the patient en
durance and goodness of heart

THEY HAVE NO RIVAL.
HURLEY’S POPULAR WORM CANDY IS REALLY
all it claims to be—a specific, removing all kinds and
varieties of worms from the human viscera of young
and old. No harmful effect from its use. No dan
ger from an overdose ; children love it.
Messrs. J. W. Seaton 4: Cos.;
Gentlemen—lt gives mo grout pleasure to say,
after using all the other worm remedies known to
me, with but partial snore.--.• to my children, I was
advised to try l)r. T. A. Hurley's, and since using it
tny children have become quite well and healthy.
The children would eat it all the time—it is so pleas
ant—if we would let them. 1 believe it is one of the
best and safest remedies known, and as such recom
mend it to one and all.
Jos. Travis, Louisville, Ky.
Messrs. J. W. Seaton k Cos,:
Gentlemen— ln conioquence of the benefit I have
received from tho use of Dr. Hurley’s Worm Candy
in my family, I send you this, hoping you will make
it public for the good of oilier parents. My wife and
self are satislied that but for the use of Hurley’s
Worm Candy at least one of onr children would
have died. Both of our children are now well and
hearty ; they passed worms seven inches long. Any
one doubting this can call and see me at corner 10th
and Chestnut streets, and I will give them proof of
thiß and more. Yours, with respect, *
