The husband of Mrs. Oates says her temper Is like a buzz saw ripping into a flour barrel. - The natatory performances of the nuditory Boyton are attracting laud atory comments from the London press. The honest payment of our debts and the sacred preservation of the national credit is the “gist” of Ihe platform of the Maryland Democrats. "My onthankful hearers,” said a backwoods preacher, "you air like onto hogs eatin’ acorns. They uever look up to see where the acorns come from.” "Your dress,” said a husband to his fashionable wife, "will never please the men,” "I don’t dress to please the men,” was the reply," but to worry other women.” Stephen Girard left in his bequest a legacy providing for the destruc tion of all frame houses in the origi nal plat of the city.

And old —old as the hills; and wise —wise as the serpent; and harmless —harmless as the adder. When Arthur was a very small boy, his mother reprimanded him for some misdemeanor. Not knowing it, ids fa ther began talking to him on the same subject. Looking up in his face, Arthur said solemnly: “Mother has ’tended to me.” In playful allusion to the visual peculiarities of the great Massachu setts statesman the Utica Observer says : “The Bagocrats will hold a con vention at Detroit next month, and listen to the addresses from I’ig Iron Kelley and Cast Eye-ron Btiller. Bristow and New are at logger heads. Bristow tried to teach Skin ner new tricks, but the old dog quit in disgust. Now Mr. New Is at Spin ner’s old game of naming his own subordinates. The question is: Will the old policy triumph over the new, or will New give to Bristow u new light or an old issue ? Colonel Forney, in a letter from London, says: "I have secured for the Centennial the loau of one of the original stamps for the collection of the celebrated tax on tea that led to the uprising in Boston over a hun dred years ago.” The renornination of L. G. C. La mar, of Mississippi, for re-election to Congress, is a pleasing vindication by his own constituents of one of the most patriotic and able men contrib uted by the South to the councils of the nation since the war. - Baltimore Sun. To us it seems apparent from the results in this trial, the Beeeher-Til ton, as well as in a thousand other in stances which have occurred and are constantly occurring, that some new plan is needed, some substitute for our jury system, has become, or is fast becoming, a necessity. The civ ilization of a century or two clings to this system, which for so long a time was considered the great bulwark of freedom, and it may take a long while to work out the cure for the faults which it is so easy to see exists in it at the present time. The question is worthy the attention and earnest thought and labor of our best and most earnest and philosophic states men. There is need of a great im provement, and the subject cannot long rest without exciting discussion. ■—Alta California. —Mr. Jesse Perry, of Morgan coun ty, made seven hundred and sixty bushels of oats on forty acres of land. THE DAILY TIMES. I Wlirnt Nurture Growth In the Fall 1m wliat !m Wanted Winter wheat is most apt to he iujured by alternate freezing and thuwiug, to a great depth. When the ground is frozen deeply, |the wheat plant does not, and cannot, “heave out.” When wo have a deep frost, then a few days of mild er weather thaws the surface, ami a very slight frost following, this will snap the wheat roots and leave them on the surface and tills occurs alike on drained or undrained soil. There is no absolute remedy for this evil, but it can be palliated by encouraging a different habit of growth of wheat roots. Here comes in the advantage of a rich, mellow and shallow sect! bod for wheat, with a hard underpan, repell ing rather than inviting fall growth of wheat roots downwards. There is no use trying to get long, deep roots on the wheat plant in the fall. Ton chances to one, if we do, the freezing and thawing of winter will break the roots and injure, if not distroy, the plant. Better far, in fall, encourage a strong growth of roots near the surface, forming a mat through tho soil which, when frozen, shall rise and fall together. This is not mere theory, but a fact I have often noticed ou tho laud once plowed, with a rich and shallow seed bed. The advantage of surface manur ing for wheat, as also of superphos phate and other commercial fertil izers drilled in with the seed, seems to lie largely in promoting a large surface growth of wheat routs. This, with the leaves of the plant, prevents deep freezing, and keeps the wheat roots under a mulch, which makes tho soil light and promotes rapid growth in early spring. Avery small quantity of any rich fertilizer will thus adu immensely to the yield—not entirely by its direct effect, but in preventing winter-killing and heav ing out of the plant. In no other way can I explain the extraordinary results I have known from a small application of superphosphate—often ten and fifteen bushels of wheat, or 600 and 900 pounds, from 200 pounds of superphosphate. [Cor. Country Gentleman. A I'romlftliiK liras*. A correspondent of the Department writes from Jefferson county, Ala. and sends a description of a grass which made its appearance In that county, on the Little Cupuba river, and "is new to all who have seen it.” It was discovered two years ago. It spreads rapidly on bottom lands, but. not on upland. Last year, T. K. Truss sow ed one acre in wheat on rich bottom land in Cupuba valley. After the wheat was gathered, the land not be ing plowed, this grass came up spon taneously. In the autumn hecutund baled il, and sent it to a commission merchant in Birmingham. The bill of sale was as follows: Twenty bales of hay, s,466pounds, $101.7(1, expenses, $12.55; net profit $92.21. As to the quality of the hay, it, is pronounced by livery stable men equal to timothy. He forwarded with this reporta spe cimen of tlie seed and a stalk of tho grass, measuring nine feet in length; but those have not been received. An Irish girl employed in a Phila delphia kitchen, received the follow ing letter: “San Francisco, July 1(1. My Dear Sister: l have just received a letter from (lie parish priest of St. Bridget Abbey, who Informs mo that our uncle Patrick is dead, and lias left, ail estate of £69,000. We are his nearest of kin and consequently we are as rich as blazes. I'll write yc agin.

A census of Ireland, just taken, shows a total population of 5,412,377, a decrease in ten years of 386,590, or 6.C7 percent. Total area of Ireland is 20,819,917 statute acres, of which 10,071,317 acres are under cultivation, 5,581,990 under pasture, 321,993 under plantation, and 4,213,886 acres are waste, bog and mountain. In Idle decennial period ending March, 1871, Ireland lost 768,859 inhabitants by emigration. - —•- Investigation of A licked Fraud*. New Orleans, August s.—Special Treasury Agent, T. G. ICingella, has been employed all this week in inves tigating the charges made against tho superintendent of labor in the Arehitectoral Department of the Custom-house, by the laborers re cently discharged. They allege that they were to receive three dollars per day and were paid only two and a half to one arid a quarter. The in vestigation is aimed particularly at Col. Morse, who has been in this de partment of the government many years. It is far from complete, and will be rigidly pressed by Mr. Kin sella, and the result reported to tho Treasury Department at Washing ton. So far the payrolls as signed by the complainants do not sustain tho charges. On the other hand, they were shown to have been dis charged for neglecting their work. j. . More Whiskey seizure*. Chicago, August 5. - One of Wash burns’secret service detectives yes terday made a seizure of about four hundred barrels <■[ whiskey, which he found Hi the Chicago Canal and Dock Company’s warehouse, near tho corner of Taylor and Canal streets. He discovered the whereabouts of the stuff some time last week, but de ferred making the seizure for reasons best known to himself until it was observed that some freight ears were standing suspiciously near tho place, wheD he preferred to wait no longer. On looking the barrels all over he came to the conclusion that they con tained whiskey. This key, and on comparing stamps, his suspicions were confirmed. The stuff belonged, for the most part, to the firm of Ool sen & Cos. It is estimated to be worth between $30,000 and $35,000. Revenue. Washington, August s.— The re ceipts to-day were: from internal revenue, $337,621 29; from customs, $896,435 90; the amount of national bank note currency received at the Treasury to-day for redemption ag gregated $780,565. COLUMBUS, GA., ‘FRIDAY, AUGUST <0 1875. Parker Unraprs from Jail. Columbia,. B. 0., August s.—Parker, the South Carolina defaulter, Is out !of jail. The jailor reports that he I was In jail at 10 o’clock last night, | and must have left between that hour and 11. Just before 10 a bottle of I brandy was sent to him from Hardy j Solomon, part of which was found in his room afterwards. It is said that he climbed out through the scuttle hole ami down the lightning-rod. Upon the lower {insulator of tho lat ter was found a piece of his mosqui to-net, which he had wrapped around his hands to protect them, and at the foot of it was his pistol. Alexander Mattison and Parker’s colored driver have been arrested and arc now in jail on the charge of assisting him by bringing his two horses to meet him at the Jews' burying ground. The horses were brought back to their stable last night. Tho above is the statement received at tho Sheriff’s office. Siltiqiftisloit lit tironklyn. New York, August s.—The Foster Brothers, carpet dealers, in Brook lyn, have suspended. Their liabili ties are estimated at $265,000 and their assets at $200,000. All tho cred itors are New York merchants; none of them will suffer by the suspension. It is expected by the firm that in a few days satisfactory arrangements will bo reached in the meantime business will go on as usual. Arrival of Kimnlarant*. New York, August 5. The steamer State of Nevada, from Antwerp,which arrived at Castle Garden to-day, brought over 544 Mennonites, who at once departed for the Monnonito col onies in Nebraska, Texas and Dakota. The Freshet*. Cairo, 111., August 5.--The Ohio river here lust evening was at 44 feet and 5 inches ou the gauge. The news about the river is very discouraging. A big rise is coming out of the Ten nessee and Cumberland rivers, also out of the Wabash, consequently at Evansville and Paducah the water is coming up fast. <Tho rise horo dur ing tho past twenty-four hours is nine inches against eleven inches tho pre vious day. If tho Ohio continues ris ing here at. the same rate for tho next twenty-four hours it will bo from four to six miles wide from Columbus, Ivy., up towards Paducah, Ky., for a long distance-the depth at present, as indicated on the gauge, being forty-seven feet at Cairo. The Mis sissippi river will overflow the Mis souri shore, and the Cairo levees will be in danger. It is Impossible to estimate the un easiness felt and the damage done in tho Ohio and Mississippi valleys. It looks now as if there was to boa rep etition of dangerous floods of other years, which destroyed tho Mississip pi levees and millions of acres of crops. Tho weather to-day is warm and a little cloudy. The oldest river men hero say they never saw such floods in July or August. There is danger all around us. Memrhis, Tenn., Augusts.- A boat that came up last night, reports two foot to spare on the leveo. Iu Bolivar county, Mississippi, they think them selves safe. Tlioy arc patrolling the leveo constantly. The Arkansas shore is overflowed iu several places. Here tho water is one foot below the high water mark of last Spring, and 28 inches of that of 1867. It has risen two inches since yesterday. .—_— • *- • Illinium. Sherman A Cos, New York, August s.—ln answer to inquiries this afternoon, Judge Ship man, the assignee in bankruptcy for Duncan, Sherman & Cos., stated that there was no truth whatever in the cable dispatch published in the after noon papers stating that no arrange ments had been made with the Union Bank, of London, for the redemption of the firm’s letters of credit iu the hands of travelers. Ho says the firm will make good all their letters of credit. San Francisco, Aug. 5. —It is stated that Dion Bouceicault is about to commence suit, against Duncan, Sherman & Cos. for tho recovery of his funds in their hands at tho time of their failure.

APPLETONS’ American Cyclopedia. New Revised Edition. Entirely rewritten by the ablest writers ou every subject. Printed from now typo, and Illus trated with Several Thousand Engravings and Maps. The work originally published under the title of The New American Cyclopadia was com pleted in 1863, since which time the wide circula tion which it liKH attained iu all parts of the United .States, and the signal developments which have taken place in every branch of science, lit erature and art, have induced tho editors aud publishers to submit it to an exact and thorough revision, and to issue anew edition entitled The AMKUI<'AN CYCLOI’.KDI A, Within the lust ten years the progress of dis covery in every department of knowledge has made anew work of reference an imperative want. The movement of political affairs has kept pace with the discoveries of science, and their lruitfu application to the industrial and useful arts and tho convenience aud refinement of social life. Great wars ami consequent revolutions have oc curred, involving national changes of peculiar moment. The civil war of our own country, which was at its height when the last volume ol the old work appeared, has happily been ended, and anew course of commercial aud industrial activity has been commenced. Largo accessions to our geographical kuowl edge have been made by the indefatigable ex plorers of Africa. Tho great political revolutions of the last de cade, witli the uutural result of the lapse of time, have brought into public view a multitude of new men, whose names are iu every one's mouth, and of whose lives every oue is curious to know the particulars. Great battles have been fought and important sieges maintained, of which the de tails are as yet preserved only in the newspapers or iu the transient publications of the day, but which ought now to take their place iu perma nent and authentic history. In preparing the present edition for the press, it has accordingly been the aim of the editors to bring down the information to the latest possi ble dates, and to furnish an uccurato account of the most recent discoveries in science, of overy fresh production in literature, ami of tho newest inventions in the practical arts, as well as to give a succinct and original record of the progress of political and historical events. The work has been begun after long and care ful preliminary labor, aud with the most ample resources lor carrying it on to a successful term ination. None of the original stereotype plates havo been used, but every page has been printed ou new type, forming in fact a now Cyclopiedia, with the same plan and compass us its predecessor, but with a far greater pecuniary expenditure, and with such improvements iu its composition as have been suggested by longer experience and enlarged knowledge. The illustrations which aro introduced for the first time in the present edition have been added not for the sake of pictorial effect, but to give greater lucidity and force to the explanations in the text. They embrace all branches of science and of natural history, and depict the most famous and remarkable features of scenery, architecture and art, as well as the various pro cesses of mechanics and manufactures. Although Intended for Instruction rather than embelishment, no jjains have been spared to in sure their artistic excellence; the cost of their execution is enormous, and it is believed they will find a welcome reception as an admirable feature of the Cyclopnidia, and worthy of its high character. This work is Bold to Subscribers only, payable, on delivery of each volume. It will be completed in sixteen large octavo volumes, each containing about 800 pages, fully illustrated with several thousand Wood Engravings, and with numerous colored Lithographic Maps.

If one grain of Vaccine Virus, taken from the cow’s udder and kept dry for years, then mois tened, and the keenest point of a Lancet dipped in it and drawn gently on tho arm, so as not to draw the blood, will so impregnate and change tho entire system as to prevent the party so vac cinated from taking the most loathsome of dis eases (small pox) for an entire life; again, if the Celebrated Eucalyptus tree will change au unin habitable malarial district into a healthy, salu brious cllmo, by simply absorbing from the at mosphere the x>oison malaria, why will not the proper remedy, properly applied, neutralize aud destroy the poißon, known as malaria, and thus enable parties to inhabit malarial districts with impunity? We claim that there is such a remedy, and that we have prepared it. and applied it, aud proved it iu our Anti-malarial or Euchymial Belt—aud that persons who will wear this Belt may inhabit the worst malarial districts without tho fear of having any diseases arising from malaria; such as Chills and Fever, Bllllous or Intermittent Fever, Yellow Fever, Jaundice, Enlarged Liver and Spleen, Indigestion, Constipation aud Hem orrhoids, aud that it will cure all the above dis eases, except the worst cases of Billious and Yel low Fever. This is called an Anti-malarial or Euchymial Belt, as it corrects the humors of the uody and produces a healthy action, invigorating the sys tem, and thus enabling it to per orm its various duties without fearing the effects of malaria in the least. It ha* been tried iu thousands of cases without a failure. They can bo obtained Irom tho proprietors iu any quantity at the Powell Building, Junction of Broad and Peaclitreo streets, Atlanta, Ga. Price for a single Belt $3, or $5 with a guaran tee that it will cuie or the money refunded. N. B.—None genuine without the trade mark is stamped upon them. Drs.

Love A Willson: Gentlemen—lu April last I was taken sick with regular Fever and Ague, having it every alternate day. After it had run on mo for two weeks, 1 was induced to try one of your Auti-malarial belts; so I discarded all medicine, and simply wore one of your Belts, as directed, and my Ague became lighter each suc cessive time thereafter for some three or four times, when it left mo entirely, with a good appe tite aud clear skin; aud in future, il I should ever have a Chill or Agile, I would want one of your Pads, aud no physic. Wishing everybody that may be so unfortunate as to have Chills and Fever may be fortunate enough to get one of your Belts, I am, respectfully, etc., W. J. WILSOS. Atlanta, Ga., June 3, 1875. Dus. Lovk A Willson: On the first (lay of December last I was taken with Chillß and Fever in ThomasviUe, Houthwes tern Ga., and was treated for the same by three eminent physicians who were able to stop it only for a few days at a time. It made such inroads ou iny constitution that my physician pronoun ced me to be iu tho first stages of consumption, wh en I accidentally met up with Drs. Love A Will sou’s Auti-malarial Belt, which has entirely cured me. I have had but one chill since, and that was the first day ufter putting it on. lam now in as good health as I ever was in my lile, and think this Belt a Uod-send to the afflicted. J. M. Mathews. Cannon House, Atlanta, Ga., June 4,1875. Borne nine years ago I contracted malaria in Savannah, Ga., from which I have suffered, at times, ever since, until I met up with Drs. Lovo A Willson’s Auti-malarial Belt some three months ago. I have worn it continually, and have had no chill since, and find my general health, which has been poor, much improved. I would recom mend it to others suffering with malaria. R. A. Wallace. Macon, Ga., Juno 4, 1876. Fiiiend Hodgson: I received your letter of the 26th ult., ou yesterday, I havo been off on a fish ing excursion and just returned. The people of this town don’t chill worth a cent yet. 1 have sold two of the pads, and that I did the very hour I first received them, ono to one of our conductors, anil to Mr. Vaughn, a Clerk in tho office. They both say that they tried Quinine aud other remedies, and that they failed till they put on tho pad; since then they have had no more Chills or Fever, and they recommend them to ev erybody. ***** Alex.
