Cut this cuer io lue.supenor chairity of the people, or to thefactthatthey suibosed themselves able to overmatch the pitches witncountercharms. A witch was ffinera!- .j OUFtjucu 10 ue an out woman in league with the deviL, and able to do wonderful unngs uy satamc agency. The usual way to oecoiue a witch was to go down jto the spring at the dawn of dav. and looki at the image dimly outlined in the water, pledge the soul to Satan, uon condition of ms rendering tnem the help needed. After tnis compact the witches could do wonder fut things, such as riding on broomsticks .... iuD.au, nuusiui miu'T inemseives into black cats,-and rabbits, and other aui mals. Walking along the road late in tin evening, a man alleged that he saw! three women sitting on a lojrbeside the road. As he lookco at them, the women sud.tpnU- melted from Tie w, and three ant lered! deer galloped off in their stead. The witjeh or wizzard was supposed to have poyer to transfer com from the horse trough f his neighbor to his own horse, and while 1m neighbor s horses got poor and lean, life own were sleek and fat. To sec a rabbit hopping about a barn suggested the presence of a witch making arrangements to,abstrat the corn from the horses, or the milk from the cows. But an old fashioned shilling wit! its pillars ot Hercules nailed in the horse trough was supposed to break thespejl and keep the corn in the trough. Theonlirway of killing the witch rabbits and black cats, was by nslng a silver bullet. The rabbit Would vanish, but the witch at home would suddenly die of heart disease, or apoplexy. Ia the mean time the witches were supposed to use a peeuliar kind of a gun, which was simply a glass phial, open at both endi, and a bullet made of knotted and twisiedihair. This bullet possessed the wonderful proper ty of penetrating the flesh of an animal with out making any hole in the skin; R was alleged tint such bullets were four.d, and animals often being skinned would how tlie hole through which these ludlets jvcnt. It was believed that witches rode oil the neeks of horses at nijjit, anil their knotted stirrups were sometimes seen in the maues of the horses. In these cases thev assume i tlve form of rabbits. A story used to be re lated of the mistake of an inexperienced witch in trying to increase the amount of butter at a churning. She took her cream, and measured it into herchurn by the spoon ful, repeating at each dip, "a spoonful from that house." and "a spoonful from Ithat house." Unfortunately, speaking in German, she got the word for ladle instead of spoon, and so she said, -'a ladleful from that house." As a Consequence when she began to churn the cream began to swell up asjthe ladlefuls came in. until the churn was full, and it ran over and flooded the room. At that iuue- ture a neighbor. walked in. ami found; her tillable to account for- tbe abundance of cream,, an d"Tn her confusion, she divulged the embarrassing secret. SPELLS AND CIIAKMS. Intimately connected with this witch craft was the belief in spells and charms. This was very common among the negroes, and perhaps continnes to this day. Noth ing was more common than to account for certain obscure diseases as the ' result of a 'trick." The sick person was said to be "tricked." This was supposed to be done in various ways, but very frequently by mak ing some mixture of roots, hair, parings of tinge.- nails, and other ingredients, tying tlie compound up in a cloth, and laying it un der a doorstep, or piece of wood or stone where the victim had to tread or erhaps was put into the spring or well. In such emergencies the oily refuge was a ' trick doctor" or conjure?, who knew how to brew a medicine, or repeat a charm more potent tfian the spell laid'on. Such '-trick doctors" were to be found in the memory of perswns still living. They were generally meu jot a shrewd unscrupulous character," who man aged to delude the minds of the gullible victims of trickery. lie who was" weak enough to believe in the "trick,"- was not hard to be persuaded and imposed upon by the conjurer. Marvellous stories were told of the skill of '4hce conjurers. So Kitcnt was the skill of one of these, that he needed no lock to his crib and smoke house. All he did was to draw a circle in the dust rtr earth around his premises, and the thief who dared to enter that magic circle wonitl be found standmg3lierc next morning, with his bag of stolen m at or corn on his shoolder. One of these coigurers was believed to have the power of taking some straws and turn ing a thief's track upside down, and com pelling him to command stand on the rever sed track. The preimscs of a man with such a reputation were generally safe, without lock or kev. To do them justice the con jurers were generally very moderate injjscir : charges,, seeming to find their reward in the reputation which they achieved among their neighbors. And their countercharms ; and potions were generally innocent, and only calculated to work upon the imagination. Sometimes they used real remedies, supple menting them with certain passes and mo tions. For instance, ma .v years ago a bov cut his foot badly with a.i axe. The wound-; was loosely and awkwardly bound up, land the blood continued to flow, until the- lad likktrfdre. In this emergency a neigh bor 'was Vent for abjjut midnight to staunch the blood by using" . for it. Ho came promptly and carefully unbound the foot, washed off the clotted blood, adjusted; the lips of the wound, and bound on it the fleshy scrapings of sole! leather. 'After thisi he took another? sharp.; tol, a drawing- knife,? and madevvanous . passes over the foot, at the same time muttering spine' cabbalistic words perhaps a verse from the Bi bie. . The remedy as a - wholewas eminently . succesg-, ful, but the patient wa3 disposed to att ribute the cure to the careful adjnstm.en t, and .the astriut?ent properties of oafcr bark , absorbed in tsnning by the srrapinirs of the leather It was believed A 41,- - . : . . , M-u-rauuus SUCK I.UT3 COWS IC wnn .l it. .
