Brave Gen. Cheatham, who un buckled life's hacked and battered blade at Nashville the other day. dreamt of hii battles to the very last. The rattle of the wagons in the street he mistook for musketry, and his talk was of charges, bayoneting and the double-quick. I Before the American social science association Dr. H. Holbrook Curtis, of New York, chairman of the department, read a paper, "Concerning the Nose." He said the nose has four important functions. First, it is the olfactory or gan; second, it is the channel of respira tion; third, it makes up the sounding, board of the voice and modulates -its reflonanoe; fourth, it is the organ of se cretion and excretion: A person should never acquire the habit of mouth- breathing. Carefully watch the child as it matures, and see that the nasal passages are always free. In lease per? sons have become mouth-breathers, dk not lose a moment before the source, of difficulty is removed. Breathing pro perly prolongs life and renders One ex empt from disease. I Alluding to the fact that as the temperance question resolves into a question of domestic police aijd juries, the opriogneld republican gives this note of warning: "It comes to the test at the very first effort to enforce the law, and black will be the day for American institutions which sees the effort to enforce national temperance legislation through the Unied States courts, juries and marshals. The city of Springfield can deal with its own police force ply and summarily, but when an excise constabulary u created large enough to watch a prohibitory law and placed in the hands of an appointing polrer at Washington, we shall have on triil an imperialist system which has no parallel in despotism among the present empire- of the world." A special from Akron, .Ohio, says: The people living in the coal-mining regions, embracing four towns and quite a' large range of country, were awakened t four o'clock Sunday mor ning by low, rumbling sounds, accom panied by shocks of earthquake so dis tinct that Muses were shaken: and ar ticles on mantels were thrown to the floor. ; Several years ago the earth set tled several fee) without apparent cause in thia region, and people are new badly frightened, fearing they will he swal lowed up.

The re sults have proved quite marvellous, and our markets are now crowded with these exquisitate productions, which, while not many sense real laces, as the term has been for years-aceepted, 'are vet so dainty and beautiful in their way that but few persons have the slightest hesitation in wearing them even for fine use. These laces are called imitations, but thia is a mistake. They are a dis tinct class by themselves, and should properly be called "fancy laces." U The last bulletin of the Missouri State agricultural college is devoted mainly to the value of corn-fodder and the manner of harvesting in order to se cure the best results. This is a matter of much more importance, from an ceo nomical Doint of view, than most far mers are in the habit of regarding it Referring to the common notion among farmers that they cannot afford to cut up their corn and save the fodder at sUoh times as will make it make it most valuable, Prof. Sanborn f remarks: After years of somewhat exact work I feel that I am fully justified In saying authoritatively that our oorn-fodder can thus be secured at much profit." lie farther states that: "A good acre of corn fodder will keep ten-fold the stock now averaged to be fed upon j it," and that "every aore saved of good oorn fodder will add a steer to the number now kept." Basing their estimates of value upon the practice of leaving the fullv-rioened stalks standinging in the field to be ranged and trampled by the cattle during the fall and Winter, by a . . 1 MM -a - which very litue of feeding value is realiied, very tew farmers appreciate the worth of this fodder when rightly managed. BOND CALLS, THE LAST ONE HAS A NEW FEATURE. OTHIK G1NKRAL NKW8 VKOM WASHINGTON. Washington, D. C, Sept: 15. The acting seoretaryTof the treasury this afternoon issued the 142d call for the redemption of bonds. Notice is given that the principal and accrued interest of the bonds designated will be paid at the United States treasury, in the city f Washington, D. C, October 16, 1886, and that the interest on said bonds will oease that day, viz., three per cent bonds issued under the act of Congress approved Julv 12, 1882. : A paragraph of this call, authorizing the immediate payment of bonds upon presentation before the date mentioned, is a new feature, and will be incorpor ated in all succeeding calls. What is oommonly known as the "voluntary Wnd call" or the circular of August 30, Issued by acting secretary Fairchild, offering to redeem uncalled 3 per cent .bonds to the amount of 810, 000,000 if f resented before September 10 (today), as been so modified as to offer to re deem "until further notice" all 3 per cent bonds presented at the treasury at par and with accrued interest up to the day of redemption. The modification extends indefinitely the amount of bonds that may be presented and the date within which they will be redeemed. Tit Apache on Tbelr Way to I'lerld. ; Las Vkgas, New Mexico. Sept. 15. Four hundred and sixty Apaches, from the ( San Carlos reservation, passed through, here today on their way to Florida. ; The Indians are guarded by three companies of United States infantry, under command of t!ol. Wade and Maj Dickey. Although none of them have been, on the war path since Geronimo broke loose, it was well understood that they were furnishing his band with am munition and there was no telling what moment they might break out. For this reason the government decided to ship them off to Florida, where they could; do no harm. More than half of the Indians are squaws and their chil dren and a more repulsion and hideous mrss of humanity was never crowded in emigrant sleeping can before. The car doors were clogely guarded by sol driers and the crowds that surged about the coaches were not allowed to enter them,, but the buoks and squaws kindly placed themselvetPn exhibition at the windows, where they could be fully ob served. A SSUavoarl jssbm Fmlln. St. Louis. Sept. 15. Late vesterdav afternoon the Howard County bank, at Glasgow, closed its doors and placed it i i . .1 i i . . DUBines in tue nanas 01 a trustee, ior the benefit of its creditors. James S. Thompson, president of the bank, makes the following statement: The assets of the bank are ample to pay all depositors and stockholders in full. Bard times and the extreme difficulty in collecting induced the directors to turn oyer the business to a trustee, who will collect and pay off first the depositors and' then the stockholders. The assets amount to about $00,000. The liabili ties do not quite amount to that sum. One of the largest creditors of the bank is the Laclede bank, of St, Louis. It, however, will not be seriously affected by the failure. A Doable) rire. Cincinnati, September 15. Last night fire broke out in Ezekiel & Bern helm's auction and Btorage ware-rooms, 134- Main stree.t and caused damage amounting to bout $10,000. Four watchmen, employees of the firm, and one J from the fire department, were left in charge, but must have fallen asleep,: as the building was again seen to be on fire this morning. This time the loss was more severe and will aggregate $20,000 or $25,000. Most of it is to furniture of citizens stored during their absence. i : Arbutbnot a Crank. ' St. Louis, September 15. Chief of police Hatteran, of East St. Louis, sent for further inquiries to the sheriff of Covington, Tenn., where Arthur Ar buthnot, the confessed murderer of the late ex-mayor Bowman, is confined. The matter has been placed in the hands of Frank Bowman, the murdered man's son, and he will probably demand Arhuthnot's return to East 8t. Louis in order that the latter may be person alty examined by the authorities there. The general opinion prevails here that Arbuthnot is a crank. ' . Baseball Yesterday.

The Work of tbe I'laine. Das Moists, Iowa, Sept. 15 The mayor of Brooklyn, Iowa, has wired here for assistance. He says the entire business portion of the town is burning up, The fire has consumed everything from the elevator to the Downing hotel, including the postoffioe, and is sweeping westward. A Mew Enterprise. Chattanooga, Tenn., Sept. 15. A company has been formed here, with a oi7& nnn hn;ii inn.tn blast furnaoe at once. Late Hews From Charleston, Tuesday's News and Courier gives evidences of the renewal of enterprise of all kinds at Charleston, The heavy blow of Sunday afternoon and the rain, as well as the absenee of any appreciable vibrations, shocks or detonations for the past two or three days, has had the ef fect of breaking up camp life very effect ually. The abolition of the Washing ton square encampment contributed very largely to this end. Not only has the encampment been abolished, but the square has been thoroughly cleaned up and now looks very much as it did be fore the earthquake, save that the flowc beds and the wire fence around them have disappeared. At Marion square the last tent has disappeared ana the people are housed in the sheds provided by the relief committee. Most of the colored people who were encamped on Washington square -hate returned H their homes and are better off for it. "Camp Duffy" js almost deserted, and the camp on the battery has also lost some of its inhabitants. The people are recovering confidence and are returning to the houses, which are being strength ened and fitted up as rapidly as possi ble. The work of repairing the hundreds of buildings so rudely shaken vp by the earthquake is being pushed ia a con spicuously rapid manner all along the line east of the bay- There are per haps, more ruined houses in that Bection of the oity, considering the area, than in any other part of Charleston. The wharves themselves escaped uninjured, but the warehouses, many of them, show the ill effects of the encounter with the great quake. Perhaps the most numerous evidences of the visitation are to be found along the narrow streets, the approaches to the wharves, which are now little better than avenues of ruins. The activity along the water front is not of the accustomed character at this season of the year, but it indi cates that when the season fairly opens there will be nothing to impede or em barrass the progress of business. Wednesday morning there were sciroely a dozen gable ends standing in Charles ton a lesson that should not - be lost. Gable end houses should hereafter not be a popnlar style of architecture in the city. Those who have tin roofs have some trouble. A gentleman who examined his roof states that he found the nails half drawn by the effects of the earthquake. Rtlmmtr'i Fatal Cramp and Brother' Ueroliu. II la Littli Rock, Sept 15. The 12-year-old son of Joseph Morse was bathing in a pond near his home yesterday When he was attacked with the cramp. Hit brother jumped in to save him and both were drowned. Mrs. Morse1 had run from the house when the first -warning was given and witnessed the death of her two sons. She fainted at the sight and when re stored to consciousness it was found that she had become a raving maniac. Fledge Demanded. Londoh, September 15. The Mora ing Post says : .

TUB RKXIir COMMITTU TAKKS A VSKT FR0PXB 8TIP. Charleston, Sept. ' 15. There is no particular change in the situation today, but the work of rough reparation is go ing on over every part of the oity. It is impossible to restore the buildings to their former condition, but ibey are putting on a better appear an oe, and the very hum of labor tends to lighten the situation. There is a scarcity of brick layers and plasterers, but numerous ap plications for work oome in daily. The relief committee today considered the condition of Sammerville and villages along the line of the South Carolina railway, and of the town of Mt. Pleas ant, opposite Charleston, on Cooper river, and resolved unanimously that the losses in these places should be pro vided for in the ratio of their amount, on tne same Das is as tne losses in Charleston. The feeling of the com mittee is that while most of the funds were sent in the name of Charleston, the intention of the donors was to furnish relief to the whole earthquake district in this vicinity. A oommitteo on im mediate relief has been organized, and is issuing Bmair sums of money to per sons in great distress for want of cloth ing, e to. Most of the tents and shel ters provided for refuge in the city have been removed, and it is the intention to have all cleared away by the end of the month. In tHia the government en gineers have greatly assisted by their reports on the condition of dwellings. Board of Aldermen. Yesterday evening the board of alder men met at' a called session, to receive report from the committc -i f the coun ty board of health. 1 his was read, as follows : The following ' preamble and resolu tion will explain themselves: "Whereas, The .mayor and board of aldermen of the city of Raleigh have requested the Wake county board of health to give them an expression of opinion as tthe present purity and possible future contamination of the dif ferent waters proposed as sources of supply to the city of Raleigh; "Whereas, At a meet ing of the said board Friday night last a special com mittee of five of its members was ap pointed to investigate all the facts bear ing unon the oointa submitted for their consideration and to report to the board the results of their labor; "Whereas, The said committee, fully appreciating the importance of the mat ters entrusted to their care and the gravity of the responsibility resting upon them, unanimously decided at a meeting held Saturday afternoon last "First. That one of the most important elements in the determination of the present purity of the proposed waters is careful chemical and microscopical analysis. "Second. That if this important ohemioal ' and microscopical ele ment were added to their medical knowledge and the careful personal in vestigation and inspection they intend to bestow upon the possibilities of fu ture contamination, it would give them complete and scientino basis upon which to form a positive and accurate opinion: "Therefore it was resolved that the . e O A - M mayor and the board of aldermen ot the city of Raleigh be requested to au thorize the said eommittee appointed by the Wake oounty board of health to havejohemioal and microscopical analyses of the waters, from the different pro posed sources of water supply, made at suoh times as the committee think proper, by experts selected by the said committee, all expenses being borne by the oity of Raleigh. ' A long debate followed, which con sumed an hour and a half. Remarks were made by aldermen Moring, W. N. Jones, Wynne, Engelhard, Latta, Bowes, dwards, J. i. Jones and Uunston. Alderman W. N. Jones finally offered resolution referring the whole mat ter, including the' communication from the academy of medioine, to the special oommittee on water-works, with power to have the analy- i made and to expend not to ex ceed $100 therefor. The oommittee and the board of health will confer together and consider all matters relative to the purity of water supply. The board took up the matter of re pairing sidewalks in front of a store on t ayetteville street, where the owner is unable to pay the costs of the repairs so greatly needed and the place is heavily mortgaged. It is a aenoate point ana hence was left to the street oommittee which has taken appropriate action. Help for the Charloaton Sufferer. Special Cor. of the Nxws and Obskkvkb. Oxford, N. C.,Sept. 14.

Oxford, Sept. 14; 1886. ; Today at this-place Hon. James W. Reld, democratic candidate for Con gress, and Jacob A. Long, Esq., demo cratic candidate for solioitor, addressed the people of Granville. The court house was crowded with an enthusiastic audiehee. Mr. Long led off in a strong, forcible and telling speech on State issues. He drew a comparison between Democratic and Republican rule in North Carolina and showed how pros perous the State had been under j her ohangod conditions. Mr. Long made a fine impression.- He was followed, by Mr. Reid, who was handsomely in troduced by A. W. Allen, Esq1, in at few eloquent remarks. Mr. Reid came forward amid great. applause, and delivered a thorough and exhaustive oration on national politics. Ilia tl erne Was : "How has tne democratic party kept its pledges to the people?" He took up the planks in the party plat: orm and showed by the record that th ad ministration and the demooratio Huse had fulfilled every promise made the people; that full justice had been done the South in the elevation of Southern men to high official position at home and abroad; that the reign of the office holder had ceased and the reign of the people had been restored; that the the promised economy and reform in collection and disbursement of govern ment revenues had been accomplished, securing a saving of about thirty millions during the first year of democratic administration; thai the books were being opened and that al ready over twelve millions of defalca tion had been discovered and the amount would run to twenty millions. He then showed how 70,000,000 acres of land had been returned to the public domain, the Pacific mail subsidy defeated,! the reckless and extravagant pension legis lation 'checked; how the democratic party had dealt wisely with the financial questions of the day, passed the bill settling the succession to the Presidency and enacted the inter-btate commerce bill. He then took up the internal rev- enue question, the educational bill the labor question and discussed and the action and record of the party, on these questions, showing conclusively that the democratic party had fully kept faith with the people on these subjects. Mr. licid spoke for nearly two hours and was listened to with profound atton- tion throughout. He will receive an increased vote from this oounty and Person, tie has won the hearts of our people by his matehlesd oratory together with bis hard common sense. :: The Sorthern Settler Convention Ravannah Newa. This North Carolina idea is a good one, and will, doubtless, be productive of excellent results to the State.! It will help to make the State known, and will place before the public not ojnl resources and tbe character of its and climate, but, also, the fact there is a progressive spirit among North Carolina people, which, in 1 is an inducement for immigrants to that State. i In some of the Southern States there is altogether too conservative a spirit re spec ting immigration. There is a position to let well enough alone. ' want the land for our children," dis- We y some, and "we don't care to have strangers come among us," say others. : The strangers are coming some time, however, and why not have them come now when the best of them can be selected? - What is the use of permitting millions of acres to remain unoccupied and un cultivated while those who. could culti vate them and make them productive are seeking the West, building it up and making it rich and populous? Im migration has made the West what it is, and it oan make the South as great. ; North Carolina is starting right in this matter, and her October convention will produce good results. If immi grants in considerable numbers begin to look for homes there it will noil be long before her lands will rise in value and her towns and cities will pulsate with renewed life. j. CURRENCY.
