Laws Relating to Newspaper Subscrip
tions and Arrearages.
1. Subscribers who do not (jive express notice to
the contrary, arc considered wishing to con
tinue their subscription.
If subscribers order the discontinuance of
their periodicals,, the publishers may continue
to send them until all arrearages are paid.
8. If subscribers neglect or refuse to take their
periodicals from the office to which they are di
rected, they are held responsible until they have
settled their bills and ordered them discontin
ued.
4. If subscribers move to other places without
notifying publishers, and the papers arc sen/
to the former direction, they are held responsi
ble.
0. The Courts have decided that “ refusing to
take periodicals from the affine, or removing
and leaving them uncalled for, is prima facie
evidence of intentional fraud."
4. Any person who receives a newspaper and
makes use of it whether he has ordered it or
not, is held in law to be a subscriber.
R If subscribers pay in advance, they are bound
to give notice to the publisher., at the end of
their time, if they do not wish to continue tak
ing it; otherwise the publisher is authorized to
send it on, and the subscribers will be respon
sible until an express notice, with payment of
all arrearages, is sent to the publisher.

Wheat crops ia Great Britain du
ring the last nine years have yielded on

From June Ist to July 15th, will be
an exception to the general rule. The
air will he charged with electricity,
thunder showers will be frequent, very
high winds will prevail, and hurricanes,
tornadoes and cyclones may be expect
ed —so says “ Probabilities.”
Hearth and Home for May 22,
which has reached our table, and pre
sents an array of contents remarkably
varied, brilliant, and attractive.
The leading serial, “ For a Woman’s
Sake ; or, The Mastery of the Cas
tle,” besrun in this issue, is described
by the editor as being a romance prop
er —not what is known as a “ novel,”
bat a picturesque, dramatic, really
thrilling talc of startling adventure,
love, and chivalry, having the zest of
stirring novelty, after the years of real
istic liction with which the popular fan
cy has been jaded. The chapters given
this week certain’y indicate something
peculiarly refreshing and interesting.—
We notice that in connection with the
story, and based upon its quality o‘ rare
“ mystery,” the publishers make a curi
ous offer of “ SIOO reward ” to the per
son first solving the pivotal mystery of
the plot. This added stimulus will
doubtless cause great activity of the
guessing powers of the lovers of ro
mance.
Another unique attraction of the is,,
sue is “ Bonnet de Nuit,” a rare, racy
ballad, edited from “ Ancient Manu
scripts ” by “ Another Fellow,” and i!
lustrated in the most grotesque manner
by Hopkins, whose humorous power as
an artist is hardly equalled in th : s coun
try.
“ Fated Cos bo Free,” Jean Ingelow’s
story, is continued in her richly artistic,
poetic style, the interest greatly in
creasing as the narrative advances. —
Other miscellaneous attractions of pic
ture, poem, and prose arc very credita
ble to a paper of first class and origi
nal character for popular reading.—
Terms of subscription, $2.50 per year,
or $1 50 to the end of the present year,
or six cents per copy at news stands —
very low prices for an illustrated week
ly paper of high merit.
Gen Frank 1\ Blair, Jr., is kept
alive at St. Louis, and may be made to
recover by tjransfusing of blood. Afout
two years he was attacked by a
slow disease of the brain and nervous
prostration, induced by hard mental la
bor, and too much tobacco and alcohol.
Entire rest was recommended by the
physicians, and he went for quietude
and cold water treatment to Clifton
Springs, in this State. Six weeks ago
it was decided to try the experiment of
injecting into his veins blood taken
from other persons. A robust work
man was hired to contribute three ounces
of blood, and it was taken from his arm
and injected into one of Blair’s veins.
The effect was very satisfactory, and
the operation has been repeated several
times. Great care has to be taken, as
the introduction of air into the veins
would cause instant death. A tube is
inserted from which the air is with
drawn and then the blood is forced
through the tube with a syringe. The
immediate result is exhilaration and
there is danger of transfusing too much
blood at a time, if the patient is very
weak.
Protect the Sparrows. —The lit
tle sparrows which hop about the trees
aud extend their visits to the streets to
pick up food do much good in demol
ishing insects. Sometimes they wan
der in gardens, but they do scarcely any
damage. The sparrows feed chiefly on
insects, and they demolish them, cer
tainly in the chrysalis state as well as
the moth and the eggs, and probably in
the caterpillar form also. The folly,
therefore, of destroying them and the
ignorance that exists about them are
equally to be condemned.

An im-ident of General Breck
inridge’* Career.
Perhaps the most dramatic scene that
ever took place in the Senate Chamber,
old or new, was that between Breckin
ridge and Colonel E. D. Baker, of Or
egon, on August 1, ISGI, five days be
fore the adjournment sine die, in the
darkest period of the war, when the re
hellion was most defiant and hopeful.—
The last week of that Ju’y Was full of
excitement in Congress and the coun
try, and I know how much labor and
patience it required to keep alive the
hopes of our people. The course of
Powell and Breckinridge, of Kentucky,
and Bright, of Indiana, in opposing the
government, had nearly obliterated par
ty feeling in the Senate. McDougall,
of California j Rice, of Minnesota;
Thompson, of New Jersey, all Demo
crats, had declared for force to crush
the rebellion. These men were espec
ially emphatic, though closely endeared
to Breckinridge. Thompson, of New
Jersey, spoke loud and firm from his
seat : “ I shall vo*e for the bill as a
war measure ; I am in favor of carry
irig on the war to crush out the rebel
lion.” The same day McDonald ques
tioned the right of Powell, of Ken
tucky, to his seat in the Senate. An
drew Johnson reiterated his determina
tion to stand by the flag to the last.—
Carlile, of West Virginia, would vote
for force to put down the rebel foe.—
It was in the midst of this feeling Bat
Breckinridge rose to make his last
formal indictment against the govern
ment. Never shall I forget the scene.
Baker was a Senator and a soldier.—
He alternated between his seat in the
Capitol and his tent in the field. He
came in at the eastern door (while
Breckinridge was speaking) in his blue
coat and fatigue cap, riding whip in
hand. lie paused and listened to the
“ polished treason,” as he afterward
called it, of the Senator from Ken
tucky, and when he sat down, he repli
ed with a fervor never to be forgotten.
* * * An amusing episode follow
ed the debate. Breckinridge thought
it was Sumner who answered Baker’s
interrogatory, “ What would have been
done with a Roman Senator guilty of
such treason ?” by exclaiming that
“ He would have been hurled from the
Tarpeian Rock.” And lie denounced
the Massachusetts Senator irl severe
and angry Saxon. When Breckin
ridge discovered it was Fessenden, and
not Sumner, who had given this re
sponse, he did not complain of the first
nor apologize to the second.
The Agusta Chronicle of a recent
date says : “ Father Leckuer visited
Ike Hooper, the condemned murderer,
early yesterday morning, and informed
him of the refusal of Governor Smith
to grant executive clemency. Hooper
was at first much agitated, and trembled
like a leaf shaken by the wind, but
soou became composed, and during the
day seemed to have become more recon
ciled to his fate. A remarkable fact in
connection with this case is an exempli
fication of the oft-told story that men’s
hair sometimes turns gray in a single
night. When Hooper was sentenced
by Jutbje Pottle last month his hair
was perfectly black. The morning af
ter the senteuce was imposed, Mr.
Bridges, keeper of the jail, noticed, on
entering the condemned man’s cell, that
a portion of his lnad was perfectly
white. He immediately asked him
where he had obtained flour to-put on
his head. Hooper was surprised and
said he knew nothing about it. Mr.
Bridges then went up to him and dis
coveied that a large part of his hair,
immediately on the crown of his head,
had actually changed from a deeo black
to a-snowy white during the night.—
The agony of a few hours bad done
what years generally accomplish.”
A curious instance of the contag
iousness of fear was shown on a largo
scale in Strauss’s corset factory at New
Haven, Tuesday. A number of the
girls employed begaD talking about the
freqency of sudden deaths, and became
quite sober in their conversation, when
oue of them, more lively than the rest,
to change the subject, placed a small
land turtle, wdiich she had found some
where, upon the bench of her neighbor,
who, seing it, was so startled that she
fainted away. This circumstance, eou
pled with their former conversation, had
such an effort upon the girls that, one
after another, they fell into a deathlike
stupor, until seven of them were stretch
ed upon the floor. One of the men, too,
though evidently struggling against the
contagion, also succumbed, and the
foreman, becoming alarmed, sent all
hands from the room and shut down
work for the day.
The Press says : It is said that ev
ery time a Spaniard eats any sort of
fruit, whether at home or by the way
side, he never fails to plant the seeds
for the benefit of posterity. The effect
has been that no country has enjoyed
such a bountiful surply of cheap and
wholesome fruits as Spain. This cus
tom has unfortunately never been ob
tained in America, but? the thriving
young city of Topeka, Kansas, lias set
an example in the planting which is
worthy of imitation. At the request
of the Mayor of the town, one day last
week all business was suspended in the
afternoon, and the whole population
flockc-l to the State-house ground to
engage in planting trees. Three bands
were in attendance, and to the strains of
music about 1,000 shade trees of every
variety were put in the ground. How
would “ tree-planting bees ” do for the
next popular mania ?
“Belle Boyd” and a Negro
Preacher. —A feature not contempla
ted in the civil rights bill was witness
ed in Opelika on Tuesday. A negro
entered the ladies’ car for Atlanta and
seated himself among the white people.
The so-called Belle Boyd, who had been
lecturing in Opelika, drew a pistol on
him and ordered him to leave. He
left that coach at once, nor did he tar
ry in his going. There were other
cars equally as good. ’Twas a laugha
ble scene. The darkey was terribly
frightened. Belle Boyd, so-called, put
up her little weapon and proceeded to
lead a paper. — Columbus Enquirer.
Lyach^Eaw.
A correspondent of the Cincinnati
Commercial say ? s : Your paper a few
days ago contained tile following : In
the Lynchburg (Va.,) News there is an
obituary notice of Mr. Charles Henry
Lynch, the originator of the famous
“ Lynch law.” The old tree is still
standing in the yard of the family
homestead from which Judge Lynch’s
victims were suspended. This state
ment is confirmed by the authority of
Webster, who says the term is derived
from a Virginia farmer named Lynch,
who thus took the law into his own
hands.
Since the subject is up, if- may be
well to state the facts more fully. —
Howe’s “Historical Collections” of
Virginia has the following notice: Col
onel George Lynch, a brother of the
founder of Lynchburg, was an officer
of the American revolution. His resi
dence was on the Staunton river, in the
southwest part of this county, (Camp
bell), now the seat of his grandson,
Charles Henry Lynch, Esq. At that
time this county was very thinly set
tled, and infested by a lawless Land of
tories and desperadues. The necessity
of the case involved desperate meas
ures, and Colonel Lynch, then a leading
whig, apprehended and had them pun
ished without any superfluous legal cer
emony. lienee the origin of the “lynch
law.” At the battle of Guilford Court
House a regiment of riflemen, raised
in this part of the State, under com
mand of Colonel Lynch, behaved with
much gallantry. The Colonel died soon
after the close of the war. Charles
Lynch, a Governor of Louisiana, wds
his son.
This account of Mr. Howe corres
ponds with the tradition of the Lynch
family. It 13 an interesting fact that
Colonel Lynch was a member of the
society of Friends, and a man of great
benevolence and humanity. lie re
maieed connected with the society until
he became a soldier, when ho either
withdrew or was disowned. Thus the
system of jurisprudence, which has
been the most brutal in its result, had
its origin, as at present designated, in
patriotism and the necessity of self
protection, and he from whom it deri
ved a name, was a man of humane dis
position, and of respectable and con
servative surroundings, and had been
educated in the tenets of the society
which above all others taught “on earth,
peace, and good will toward men.”
Punishment for Hog Stealing.
—Under the laws of Georgia it is made
the same as cattle stealing—not less
than two nor more than four years in
the penitentiary, unless the jury try-,
ing the case shall recommend the priso j
ner to mercy. In the latter ease the
punishment is a fine not to exceed sl,
000, imprisonment in the common jail
not exceeding six months, or labor in
the chain-gang not exceeding six
months—one or more of these punish
ments in the discretion of the court.—
If such laws as these were enforced, it
would be idle to say that hogs cannot
be raised in this State as well as cotton.
The fleecy staple can be stolen as well
as bacon.— Columbus Enquirer.
One day last week a smiling infant
toddled away from its home, near Vio
la, lowa, on the Dubuque Southwestern
Railroad, and lay down between the
rails to sleep. A few moments later a
train come along, and the engineer, see
ing he could not stop in time, pulled
her wide open and banged the whole
train over the sleeping cherub before it
woke, and never touched a hair of it.
Ilad the little one attempted to rise it
would have been killed instantly.

APPLETON’S
AMERICAN CYCLOPAEDIA.
New Revised Edition-
Entirely rewritten by the ablest writers on
every subject. Printed from new type
and illustrated with Several Engravings
and Maps.
The work originally published under the
title of The New American Cyclopaedia
was completed in 1863, since which time the
wide circulation which it has attained in all
parts of the United States, and the signal
developments which have taken place in
every branch of science, literature and art,
have induced the editors and publishers to
submit it to an exact and thorough revision,
and to issue anew edition eutitled The
Ait e ican Cyclopaedia.
Within the last ten years the progress of
discovery in every department of knowl
edge has made anew work of reference au
imperative want.
The movement of political affairs has
kept pace With the discoveries of science,
and their fruitful application to the indus
trial and useful arts and the convenience
and refinement of social life. Great wars
and consequently revolutions have occur
red, involving national changes of peculiar
moment. The civil war of our own coun
try, which was at its height when the last
volu us of the old work, appeared, has hap
pily been ended, and anew course of com
mercial and industrial activity has been
commenced.
Large accessions to our geographical
knowledge have been made by the indefati
gable explorers of Africa;
The great political revolutions of the last
decade, with the natural result of the lapse
of time, have brought into public view a
multitude of new men, whose names are m
every one’s mouth, and of whose lives evw
ery one is curious to know the particulars.
Great battles have been fought and impor
tant sieges maintained, of which the details
are as yet preserved only in the newspapers
or in the transient publications of the day,
but which ought now to take their place in
permanent and authentic history.
Ik preparing the present edition for the
press, it has accordingly been the aim of
the editors to bring down the information
to the latest possible dates, and to furnish
an accurate account of the most recent dis
coveries in science, of every fresh produc
tion in literature, and of the newest inven
tions 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
cat eful preliminary labor, and with the
most ample resources for carrying it on to
a successful termination.
None of the original stereotype plates
have been used, but every page has been
printed on new type, forming in fact anew
Cyclopaedia, with the same plan and com
pass as its predecessor, but with a far
great Jr pecuniary expenditure, and with
such improvements in its composition as
have been suggested by longer experience
and enlarged knowledge.
The illustrations which are introduced for
the first time in the present edition have
been added not for the sake of pictorial ef
fect, but to give greater lucidity and force
to the explanations in the text. * They em
brace all branches of science and of natu
rai history, and depict the most famous and
remarkable features of scenery, architect
ure, and art, as well as the various process
es of mechanics and manufactures. Al
though intended for instruction rather than
embellishment, no pains have been spared
to insure their artistic excellence; the cost
ol their execution is enormous, and it is
believed.they will find a welcome reception
as an admirable feature of the Cyclopaedia,
and worthy of its high character.
This work is sold to Subscribers onl}',
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 coloied Li
thographic Maps,
