. . . . A ' ' cSaperstltion In Hifii SCOUT LORD, chief counsel for the anderbilt will contestants, is trying to e out that the tough old Coramo- re, as hard-hearted.a man as ever ved, believed in the moonshine of clairvoyance, and was consequently _ .toon compos. It will probably be de­ cidedly difficult to convince the jury on ; ?^f|he latter point, and as to the first, if .belief in the power of so-called clair- W^oyants to see and know things that are "lidden from all others is evidence of m _ Insanity, then an immense number of v- Jllwellers in Gotham need sharp watch- " Ing. For the clairvoyants have a very „JTT. large clientage, as the lawyers say, and • . Vflo a thriving business. Twenty jrcars jigo or more, Q. K. Philander Doesticks, A B., raked 'em up in a way that gave j*. em a good deal of notoriety, but if his .^bbject was to break up their business he •y"^tertainly did not succeed. They are jnore numerous now than they were in %hos« times, auu Iheir business is as §rofitable as it ever was. The whole umber of professional clairvoyants in Tew York is probably about forty, ome of them keep standing advertise- before the public, but the major­ ity do not need to solicit custom in this wav, their business being almost as well established as that ofa first-class physician. Men and women who de­ sire to consult them know just where to find them, so the cost of advertising is saved, and this, at forty cents a line in the Herald, is no small "item. Two-thirds, or more, of the clairvoy­ ants are women, and most of their patrons are also women. The most profitable patrons of the clairvoyants -«re the wives and daughters of rich , men, who always have plenty Of pocket -money and very little to ao. There ?are many fashionable matrons and ^belles who visit them almost as often "as they give orders to their dress­ makers. It may seem strange, but it is a recognized truth that scores oi educated, intelligent, wide-awake ladies have as firm a faith in the reality of clairvoyance as they have in their re­ ligion. There are some in Fifth avenue who would not do any important act, without first ascertaining from some clairvoyant or fortune-telling source its probable result. It is not uncommon for such persons to disguise themselves as servants or workingmen, and thus visit the purveyor of mystic knowledge to have solved some matter that, may­ hap, has worried them day and night. The clairvoyants patronized by this class are the elite of the profession, so to speak. They have a private and se­ lect line of business, occupy handsome­ ly-furnished apartments, generally in J? rench flats, and require a reference or an introduction from all persons soliciting their service. They make a good deal of money and can afford to' live very comfortably, as they usually do. One woman, whoBe residence is not far from the Stewart mansion on Fifth avenue, charges five dollars for every consultation, and has as much business, it is said, as she can attend to. A few others also live in that neighborhood and enjoy a liberal pat­ ronage from the fashionable world, but this particular one has the cream of ,the trade. The business men of New York are - noted for shrewdness and hard sense, and would be the last persons to be sus- .pected qf superstitious weakness; yet, unless they are wrongly accused, many .of them consult the fortune-tellers and clairvoyants quite regularly. If such a man as Commodore Vanderbilt had even the smallest particle of faith in the fe­ male seer, there need be but little diffi­ culty in accepting the talk that puts many less noted men in the same cate­ gory. At all events, it is frequently said of this man or that one that he habitually calls upon one or another of bur weird sisters for information and fidviee about his business. Also, that 4here are tradesmen and others of that Mass among us who never begin an en­ terprise till it has been approved by some one who pretends that he or she can read the future. Not long since I was a listener to a conversation that bore directly on this subject. The per­ sons between wl\om it passed were two gentlemen of considerable shrewdness. " I wonder," remarked one, 44 if Williams has been to%ee n fortune-teller lately?" " That is a singular question. Why do you ask?11 44 Well, I hear he is making prepara- . ions to enlarge his business. 44 And what of that?11 "Why don't you know that he never does anything of the sort without inter­ viewing some old woman before he be­ gins?11 " You don't mean that Williams is fool enough to believe in the nonsense of the fortune-tellers?1' 44 Certainly he is, and I supposed that, everyone knew it." 44 Does he follow their advice?" 441 guess he does, about as closely as he can. He has full faith in what they tell hjm." 4 4 And how does it generally come out?" 44 Well, he gets along pretty much as others do; none the better for the for­ tune-tellers, of course, and possibly none the worse. Why, there are scores of fellows in New York who would not {>ut ten dollars in a new venture till they iad first consulted some clairvoyant or fortune-teller about it." The enlightened nineteenth century has some dark spots, after all. But so, the scientists say, has the sun. The same bcientlsts, though, would proba­ bly smile very significantly, if one asked their opinion of clairvoyants.-- J5T. T, (Jar. Hartford Times. • 1 A Talk to Farmers. "Winter Has really come, and every goott farmer has finished the labors of the season. Of course there is enough to do on every farm at all seasons. In­ deed, the labors of the husbandman are never concluded. But during the win­ ter the days are short, much of the time the weather is unfavorable for work, and the farmer considers himself more at leisure than during spring, summer and fall. What we have now to say is a matter of exhortation. What do you, and es­ pecially the young men on the farm, propose to do during the Stormy days and the long evenings of winter? To work, eat and sleep is not all of life. ie; We would not agree with others when they say that the cultivation of intelli­ gence is a nobler service than to labor, because we believe physical work to be as much a duty as it is a necessity. It is the first and fundamental duty, and should not be disparaged by an unfa­ vorable contrast with mental work. But we cannot get rid of the fact that the avocation of an individual is elevated and honored in proportion to his intelligence, and we hope that very many of our faraiers%re anticipating a good time this winter in efforts for per­ sonal improvement. We once visited a farmer who was past sixty years of age, ant! shall never forget "the lesson he impressed upon us. On finding that he did all his chores and got his break­ fast before daylight, worked at chop­ ping in his woodland all day, and took his sunper and did his evening chores after dark, we asked him if he did not become greatly fatigued in such labors at his time of life. "Oh, yes," he plieu, '• * I often feel tired, but tucu comfort myself by anticipating the good time I shall have reading after nine o'clock at night." Of course such a life demands great hardihood, and it is what no human be­ ing should be forced to. Still this man was a hero of toil, and yet his highest enjoyment was found in reading, which afforded him comfort during his long days of work. If this man could find time for increasing his intelligence amid such early ana late labors, there is certainly no excuse for those w ho 44 take it easy" during the winter, and yet scarcely read their newspaper. We are anxious for the elevation of agriculture. We see the most talented sons of farmers becoming early dis­ gusted with their occupation, and leav­ ing for some pursuit in town. We see the daughters of the richer farmers who reside within easy reach of the town early taking in the aristocratic spirit and taking on such airs as show that they despise the occupation of their parents, and are earnestly praying for husbands who are lawyers, doctors, merchants or clerks. These high-flying sons and daughters of the farm should be made to listen to the Son of Sirach, who says: 44 Despise not honest, labo­ rious work and husbandry, which the Most High hath ordained." The country, the farm, is the place for strong men and healthy women; and all that is needed to place agriculture in the highest esteem of all classes is the increase of knowledge among the farmers. This would not only increase country enjoyment, but it would give our farmers a stronger spirit of inde­ pendence, and secure to them their fair share of social and political power. We may hereafter show how the agri- culturists of this country, who consti­ tute the main body of the middle class, have relatively lost both Social and po­ litical po&er during the last thirty years. This loss has been in conse­ quence of the wonderful growth of our cities and towns, and the very small comparative increase of our rural pop­ ulation. To preserve what power they have remaining, and to recover some­ thing of what they have lost, it is nec­ essary for them to cultivate more so­ ciality among themselves, and improve their knowledge of public affairs. To this end they should associate in literary societies, and devote as much attention as possible to their exercises and to reading. Especially should the younger men and women be diligent and zeal­ ous in this important business--of more consequence to them than any other business whatsoever. With Carlyle we would say, 44 Don't wear a hat with an empt}' effigy of a head in it." He is not a worth}' farmer who has not sufficient pride in his profession to make himself, and to assist in making others, worthy of it. All should know that intelligence is the govering power --a power mightier than money--and by knowledge and culture alone can they even protect their own interests against the ever-active passions of avarice and ambition. All should strive to prove the truth of Jefferson's estimate of the farmer's character. He says: 44 Those who labor on the earth are the chosen people of God, if He ever had a chosen people, whose breasts He has made His peculiar deposit for sub­ stantial and genuine virtue. It is the focus in which to keep alive that sacred fire which might otherwise escape from the earth. Corruption of morals in the mass of cultivators is a phenomenon of which no age or Nation has furnished an example. It is the mark set on those who, not looking up to heaven, to their own soil and industry, as does the husbandman, for their subsistance, depend for it on the casualties and caprice of customers. Dependence be­ gets subservience and venality, suffo­ cates the germ of virtue and prepares fit tools for the designs of ambition."-- Cincinnati Enquirer. Watching a RifleBall's Flight. Three gentlemen, members of the Amateur Rifle Club, yesterday after­ noon were in the Town*of Brighton tar- get-shooting. The distance was 200 yards; all three were shooting Creed- moor rifles. From the firing point to the target the ground gradually as­ cended, so that a small telescope, but a good one, firmly fixed in true bounds on a tree, at a distance of perhaps thir­ ty feet, made a fine point for observa­ tion. One of the shooters, while look­ ing through a glass to mark a shot of one of his companions, exclaimed that he saw the ball as it sped on its mis­ sion. The announcement was received with incredulity; but one of the other shooters went to the glass, and he also saw the ball almost as it left the gun, and through its whole flight, nearly the whole line of its trajectory, until it struck the target. So interesting and beautiful was the sight that every shot was watched by one or the other of the gt ntlemen; ana it is an actual fact that the point at which the ball would strike the target could be seen before the ball struck. It was even insisted upon that the rotary motion of the ball could be observed.--Rochester (N. Y.) Herald. ..d Rid path'* School History. Recently, In these columns, reference wga made to Rid path's History of the United States, for schools. Tliose who have examined it, crit­ ically, pronounce It an incomparable text-book for the young, and accord it a grade of superi­ ority which no author of a similar work has attained. It is most cordially recommended to the attention of everybody interested in the cause of education. JONES BKOTHKBS & Co., Cincinnati, are the publishers. USEFUL AND SUGGESTIVE. NEVES go to bed at night until you know that all your dumb animals are comfortable.--Iowa State Register. A SENSIBLE farmer writes as follows to an exchange: 44 Now is the time when farmers should be careful. If you have a few dollars to invest do not spend it for something to look at and admire, but buy a calf or two and you will find it a good investment.*1 CORN-MEAL MUFFINS.--Three eggs well behten, whites and yolks separate­ ly; two heaping eupfuls of Indian meal and one of flour; sift into the flour one teaspoonful of soda and two of cream- tartar: then one tablespoonful of lard, melted, three eupfuls of milk, one tea- spoonful of salt; beat well and thorough­ ly; bake in rings or small patty-pans; bake quickly and serve hot. CORNING BEEF.--For 100 pounds of beef take seven pounds of salt, two pounds of sugar, two ounces of saltpe­ ter, two ounces of pepper, two ounces of soda: dissolve in two and a half gal­ lons of water, boil, skim and let it cool; when a scum rises after a few weeks, scald the brine over, and by so doing and keeping meat entirely covered witn brine, it will keep a year and more. HARD SOAP.--Pour four gallons of boiling water on to four pounds of washing soda and three pounds of un- slacked lime; let it stand until clear, then drain off; place it on the fire in an iron pot; put in six pouuds of good clean fat; boil two hours--stir most of the time; pour one gallon of cold water on to the mixture of soda and lime that has been once used; let it settle clear, and add this cold solution to the boiling soap whenever it is in danger of boiling over; add only a pint or so at a time; try the soap by cooling a little in a saucer; about thirty min­ utes before removing from the fire, add four ounces of borax; wet a tub to pre­ vent sticking; turn in the soap, ana let it stand until solid; cut into bars. THE FOWLS' DUST-BATII.--Use a shal­ low box--say six to eight incfees in depth and at least two or three feet wide by as many long. The exact di­ mensions are of no importance; the larger the better; and on no account should the width be less than two or three feet, as the fowls must have an opportunity to flutter their wings with­ out striking the sides of the box. Fill the receptacle with dry loam or fine sand, free from stones or gravel, as these hurt the fowls when they are going through with their violent mo­ tions. Pulverized clay makes an ex­ cellent bath. In summer dry road-dust may be collected for the purpose; and if nothing better oilers, use coal ashes. Keep under cover in a dry place, and if where the sun shines all the better. --Poultry World. Winter Farm Economies. THERE are so many things that the farmer may do at home, in his own workshop, as well as another can do it for him, that it is surprising that so few are without a kit of wood working tools, a shoeing hammer, some horse nails, pinchers for iron, copper, rivets, screws and other necessary articles as will enable him to complete many a handy job without the intervention of the carpenter. The time required to do the work will often be found to be less than that spent in going to and from the taiechanic's place of business. Thus with a few tools the wood work of harrows, plows, cultivators and other tools about the farm may be repaired. By having a few extra handles of forks and other implements on hand, these may be cheaply repaired and made as good as hew. Wagon toi.gues, and many other du­ plicates for farm vehicles and machines, are now prepared so as to require but little fitting. In the case of machines, all that is necessary, as a rule, is simply to fasten them in place. In doing this the farmer not only renders himself handy with tools, but at the same time he becomes thoroughly conversant With the working parts of each individual machine--no small matter to the prac­ tical man. In fact every farmer ought to be able to take apart, and put to­ gether intelligently, any machine on the farm, Unless this be the case, they cannot be worked 'as economically as they should be. While the farmer is thus educating himself, he will come to see the neces­ sity and economy of having everything in its place, and a place for everything, when not in use, and when in use they will be just in place. So he will come to occupy his leisure hours in repairs of various kinds. Barn and stable doors that are getting shaky on their hinges will be repaired at once. M he burn wood, and a large proportion of the farm­ ers of the West still do so, it will be pre­ pared and piled secure from rain, and with proper ventilation, so it ma}' dry perfeetlv. If he burn coal, a proper shed will be built to keep it-dry. The pumps about the place will always draw. Water troughs will never have sloughs of mud about them in soft weather to mire stock, rfor«glare ice in bad weather, to maim them. Sheds will be made comfortable. The best facilities will gradually be accumulated for ac­ complishing the work of tha farm, and a general air of thrift will be observa­ ble, not only about the homestead, but over the farm. In this, we do not mean to assert that the simple possession of the tools necessary to do odd jobs, will accom­ plish all\his; but the handling of tools soon gets a common-sense man con­ versant with their use, and the inves­ tigations necessary to enable a man to do the work intelligently, broadens the mind, and one soon comes to see where money may be saved in many direc­ tions, and "how easy it is to make all things tidy about the Jiouse and place, and also, where tLq, profit comes in, in rendering the stock about the farm comfortable. These may seem like small econo­ mies. In truth they are; but it is these small economies that go to swell the profits of the farm, just as in any other, industry in life. It is, in fact, attention to small economies that make the pros­ ecution of business successful in its best sense.--Prairie Farmer. --Victoria Woodhull is a failure -iti England as a lecturer, andintends to lay the stage. „. -- -- r ̂ - ' . . • ^ i ^ _ •--A man in Stockton, Cal., was sur- priped, the other day, to learn, on questioning his twelve-year-old boy, of the alarming prevalence of opium- smoking among school-boys of tender years.
