CALHOUN TIMES D. B. FREEMAN, Editor. 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. WEDNESDAY, MAY 20, 1575. —HU MW I w— I—II ■ i hbhiim 1 [TT -——lMA..am- —r snamatisr&.m ~-mt Wheat crops ia Great Britain du ring the last nine years have yielded on an .average twenty-nine and a hall bush els per acre. 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. The weather in Australia this win ter has been excessively hot. In Mel bourne on January 22, the thermorue* ter stood at 111 in the shade. A gen tleman on< Soldier’s Hill, near Ballarat, placed a school slate for awhile out of doors, then spread some butter upon it, and breaking an egg thereon, in a tew minutes the egg was perfectly cooked, •< 8 if done in the orthodox pau over a fire 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. §Atr SMlmlismenG.

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, Price and Style of Binding.
