DEATH IN RAW HAM.--It is strange that people will eat raw ham after the many warnings which they hare received that all pork, smoked or not, is liable to contain mcluuee. When pork is proper­ ly oooked, the germ of the parasite is destroyed, and no danger need be appre­ hended. When uncooked and eaten, the eggs, which are lying dormant, become aotive and the parasites multiply with amazing rapidity, and aoon the entire muscular ay.' tern is invaded by them, and the agony of the sufferer is intense, A WRITER in the nineteenth Century says that contagion oonsists of minute solid particles and not gaseous disseminations. If this is true we can readily understand that a person who breathes only through the nose will be much less likely to eatch a contagions disease in a sick-room than would a mouth-breather. Free ventilation, perfect cleanliness and fre­ quent changes of clothing afford the best means of removing the contagious particles given off by the sick persons. IOB FOB TEETHING CHILDREN.--The pain of teething may be almost done away, and the health of the child bene­ fited by giving it fine splinters of ice, picked off with a pin, to melt in its mouth. The fragment is go small that it is but a drop of warm water lief ore it oan be swallowed, and the child has all the coolness for its feverish gums with­ out the slightest injury. The avidity with which the little things taste the oooliog morsel; the instant quiet which suooeeds hours of fretfulness, and the sleep which follows the relief, are the best witnesses to the magic remedy. Ice may be fed to a 3-months' child in this way, each splinter being BO longer than a common pin, for five or sen minutes, the result being that it has swaUowea in that time » teaspoouful of warm lara- tor, which, so far from being a harm, is fftadforit, nod tfcefwoces* peated hourly as often as the fretting fits Irpm teething begin. ™-;. Cruelty to Animals. *- The cruelty of man to the animals that labor for him, afford him pleasure, food, and the materials for his clothing, is of­ ten such as to render it questionable, which is, after all, the inferior beast. The establishment of humane societies in different States, cities and towns, however, is a step toward the protection of dumb animals from human barbarity. The shame is, that these are at all neces­ sary in this boasted century of religious teaching and general intelligence. It is a fact, however, that the invocation of stern law is yet needed to bring many a •human tiger to a sense of what is due even to the brutes he slaughters. The most flagrant outrage . that we have to note in this direction, is afforded at the stock-yards, sear this city. It is the practice of those whose business it is to kill the cattle at the slaughter houses, to spear them with a knife in the neck, just back of the horns. It has been discov­ ered by the offloen of the humane a®- oiety that when the animals era restless and seek to evade the kmfe, ihe mid- dened batohem pierce the «gree*>f *he victims that they may not see tfce ap­ proach of the death-dealing knife. Ar­ rests of these inhuman monsters are be­ ing made, aud the proprietors of the packing houses, to their oredit be it said, are seconding the society in its efforts to put a stop to the horrid practioe.

The quantity of beer consumed in 2801 was 564 gallons, the value of which is 1 shilling 6 pence a gallon, ia £72,809,142, against £68,881,673 in 1880. The con­ sumption of British wines and spirits was 28,730,719 gallons, which at W shilliBga a galion, amounts to £2ftJ80/T19, against £28,457,486. In foreign spirits figarea are 8,295,- 265 gallocs at 24 shillings, amounting to £9,954,318, against £10,173,014 in 1880. For wine the figures are 16,644,- 757 'gallons at 18 shillings, amounting to £14,000^281, against £14,267,109 in 1880 ; while the eonsumpton of British wines is estimated at 15,000,00$) gallons, amounting; wk 2 shillings per gallon, to £1,500,000, the same sum as in 1880. The total for 1881 is £127,074,460, again at £122,279,275--an increase of £4,795,185. The consumption of beer shows an increase of 7.3 per oent., and British spirits 0.96 per oent., while for­ eign spirits show a decrease of 2.1 per fcent., and wine 1.8 per cent Taking the percentage of the total, it gives an aggregate increase of 3.9 per cent. Wit3fc regard to the consumption of beer, however, Mr. Hoyle finds, by the avow­ al of the brewing interest itself, that the old computation of its liabilities to the excise for the malt it used waa de­ lusive. Malt waa taxed as if quantity produced fifty-five barrels whieh in truth produced sixty, and, accordingly, the fe&l increase in the drink bilrta only 0.8, instead of 3.9 per cent. • (%U( aad Eif. .

They were connected together by a patent ooupler, which entered the tody of eatfh in the region of the vest- pocket, This connecting arrangement necessarily threw them a great deal in each other's society. When they were boys their lives were tendered more or less unhappy by their widely different tastes. Eng was very fond Of sour ap- tia youth, and when-at nig|tt he t bia abuoh witb a large stock of oolic on hand, Chang' had to lie awake and get the benefit. Later in life Ch*ng developed a strange long­ ing for a flowing bowl, while Eng waa a Go< d Templar. When Eng went to the lodge, the worthy outside guard would refnse to let Chang in, because he couldn't give the pass-word, and as Eng couldn't go in and leave Chang in the ante-room, he had to go home and wait till anotheir meeting. Eng was a Mason and Chang was a Knight of Pythias, and they used to give each other away sometimes, and have lots of fun. Eng was a Half-Breed and Chang was a Stal­ wart and that made it bad about attend­ ing caucuHses. Chang joined the Epis­ copal Church and believed in sprinkling, while Eng was a Baptist, and not only got immersed himself, but fixed it so that CUang had Ma sins • washed at the same time. Once in & while Chang would get' an invitation to a private party in a set to which Eng did not be­ long, and then they had to settle the question'by patting.

The story of the intrigues against Thurman has re­ cently been told by a Oolumbus corre- npondent of the New Jork limes. Thurman was slaughtered in the bouse of his frieada. The people ot Ohio were for him. The Ohio State Convention in­ structed its delegation to the National Convention to support him, an3> the unit rule has never been disputed in the Democratic party. Popular sentiment in Ohio, party discipline, and every con­ sideration of good faith aad honor re- 3aired that Mr. Thurman should have ie united, hearty aud uncompromising support of the Ohio delegation. He counted upon it and hia Ohio constit­ uents counted upon it confidently. Some waiks before the Cincinnati Con­ vention met some of MR Thormaa'atrue ; friends advised him that intrigues, orig- ! mating in part in GramercyPark, where j Tilden livee, aad in p«t at Onya- <hoga, whieh is P*yners hom«, were organizing to bring divisuHi aad diasen- sios into tiie Ohio WjPtesorttetinn la the cwvention, Mr. TEimaaa woold not credit these reports. He bad too much faith in human nature aad too exalted an opinion of the obligation of friend­ ship to believe them. But they were true, us the result proved. Even before the the Cincinnati Convention assembled the Ohio delegation tietrayed the influ­ ences whieh had been at work upon it, and au angry altercation took place whiehdeeboyed its unity of purpose and rendered it impotent as a feotor in the nomination of rDemocratio candidate for Presid^nti Certain cf the Ohio pot- WhsatiM 8enstseMrr«e4 flathcTUi Inst., ttw BoQas sppropttatkm bQb irtsiah had bssa adtanoad to ii>ate «( SECEOD; J m> | ET^FAGILFT .̂ oTjmSw '̂ aawa, li«s wntowd to thl y*4y MW*|f tbs wont oatlawknown «a thauMOKyNBOI' thusa, and.whilsya Oet ii onShe that otSnt ICtsoa, save to the tact jhat he is a ba&r toat Wonuu% SUs. •OQH. •pp- of Mason: is thesan î of Oov.
