THE CORYALLIS GAZETTE, ; FRIDAY, s DEO. 2v 1 890. , THE WIFE OF PRINCE BISMARCK. Ph Is th Model, of it Practical Meth odical Oerman Matron. If little is known in England ol Prince Bismarck's private life, still less, says Mrs. Pereipa. is known of the lad j who for more than forty-twc years has shared his home. The Prin cess Bismarck is described as the very model of a practical, methodical Ger man matron, with an eye for. every de tail household arrangement and econ omy and a heart for, the comfort and well-being of : each housemate, from the highest to the lowest . Weddings, it has bee ft observed, not seldom give rise to other weddings. - It was at the--wedding of a friend that Bismarck first met Fraulein Johan na von Puttkamer. She was one ol the bridemaids, and the stately lady made then and there an impression on the young Baron, which culminated in an offer of marriage three years later. The key to the' Princess1 character is to be found, says the same biographer, in her words: '.'That . my husband is a public character is a fact to which I often find it painful enough to resign myself. But as for me. fiis wife, what have I to do with publicity? I do not exist for publicity, but wholly and solely lor him.' This perfect union of souls, however, Jlrs. Pereira confesses, has not pre vented the Princess1 husband from posing, occasionally as . a victim to family claims.: In one letter he says, refering to a projected excursion to the seaside, '"I have held out against it or a long time; but as all the mothers and aunts are unanimous in declaring that nothing but sea water and sea ait can do poor Mariechen any good, I know that if I still refuse every cold in the head which may befall her to the 70th year of her age will be set down to my avarice and paternal barbarity." Again he writes: '"Yesterday I was reduced to such a state of despair by all these plan nings that I was posi tively deter miued to give up the whole journey; and I went to bed with t he firm resolution at all events to travel straight through withoutstopping any where on the way. But Johanna at tacked me in the night, with the young ster in her arms, and, by dint of all the arts which drove man out of Paradise, a he of course carried her point, and the original scheme is to be carried out." It is only fair to the Princess after this to quote her husband's loving let ter from Biarritz: "I have a bad con science, because I am seeing so much that is beaut if nl without you. If you could only be carried hither through the air. I would go with you this very moment back to Saa Sebastian, Jjoudou News. Mr. Lang's Typical American.' But, if try we must, here goes for the typical American of the educated class es. He ih not very like an English man; he is ratlwr more like a French--man. bulstiil in fire like an American. You can i say wliwe lie differs in $ippi-ar:ue m;u a Briton; it may be iu his necktie, his hunts, or in the way which he brushes Ids hair. He seldom looks as if lie lived much in the open air or was fond of field sports. He is much more vivacious thau an English man, more orijriual in manner, more fertile iu ideas, more modern in every way. He is almost too good company; too effervescent for some natives of a low, foggy climate. He is enviably detached from our infernal politics and (social confusions. These are all pretty indifferent to the native of a country which has elbow room, a militia which shoots and practically'no neighbors. He is usually fond of the Irish and their cause, but he never goes to Ireland, lie does not mind explaining to 3-011 the niceties of base ball; but I have known . .an elderly Frenchman take more in terest than - he does in cricket. He ! eems to me to know a great deal about cookery and de icacies of strange names, American or French; but he has, perhaps.no very high opinion of t our poor culinary efforts, lie is not; curious, however,- in strange mixed juleps and cocktails, and so forth, like the representative American of the stage. He very seldom talks with an nglish accent, and even when he -does, his idioms betray him. He takes a Platonic interest in poker, but is no f ambler. He is much too familiar with nglish life to be very keenly cur ious about it, and he never dreams of (going to see the lions. He is rather fond of the play, 1 knowing and caring very much more about our authors, actors, pieces, and so forth, than I do. for one. He is kind, courteous, ingenious, oblig ing, a good fellow, and welcome be cause he is infinitely more alive than most of us. To bring him into a room full of dejected Britons is like pouring fresh water among fish in a pail. He js patriotic, but no Chauviniste, and is aware that Bunker Hill was but a British defeat He does not talk about the war and Mr. Abraham Lincoln. We are sorry when he goes away and glad when he comes back again, with a new budget of good stories, for, if he has a national trait, it is the swopping of anecdotes. He is not a man that anybody would, think of trying to im pose on, but be is not demonstratively acute. Never have I seen a robustious American 'nor an American who preached, nor an American who told tointless stories. North Anterican Re view. Marble FInid. The Austrian sculptor Friedrich Beer, fa Paris, has discovered a process for making marble -fluid and -molding it a bronze is molded. - The name of the marble thus treated is beryt. The new product costs little more ' thau plaster, and is especially well adapted to the ornamentation of houses and the con struction 'of floors, baths,- and small pillars. ' A stock company has been organized in' Paris to place beryt on the market.': A Potato in the Batter. v A lady went' to one' of the ' groceries Jn WUawood;,Fla.,:,and bought two pounds of batter Jtbaj, bad been" bought in the country by the merchant When the.nice yejlpw Jump was cut jn '-. two there ,wi fpwd in tbe",.cea ter. , 'of',, ft.

C, of which Goldsboro is the county seat, many ol the inhabitants believe in witchcraft as firmly as they ever believed in States rights, and are as willing to sacrifice their lives on the altar of their supersti tion as they were to die on the plea oi a mistaken patriotism. The Carolinas, Georgia,Alabama, and other Southern States abound in so called "witch doctors," who will cure your ails and kill the, witch that is troubling you. Some of these doctor; actually believe in 'the personal exist ence of witches and in their supernat ural power, but many of them are frauds who make a living by imposing on the credulity of their neighbors. The negro race is naturally supersti tious, but the poor white "crackers1 are also ignorant, and for believing in spooks, spirits, hobgoblius, and othei natural phenomena they can give .the colored man cards, spades, and aces, and then beat him. The cracker is worse than the colored man because he fondly imagines that he is so much shrewder, and so he does not use what brains he has, nor does he try to learn anything. He has thousands of : signs, omens, cures, and beliefs that are a continual source of annoyauce to him, and perpetually keep him in a state oi dread. The simplest incident is one oi sinister and occult meaning to him, and he is ever in a tremor lest ill luck and misfortune overtake him. : The evil influences manifest them selves in various ways, and each one seems worse than the other. His gun occasionally hangs tirn and refuses to "go off" properly, and at times is so badly deranged that it ' cannot be dis charged at all. At other times hjs favorite coon dog is bewitched by some evil-minded and envious person, and then the woe of the cracker is some thing painful to witness. If his gun were not bewitched, why could he not kill a squirrel with it? And why should bis dog refuse to hunt coons, when to hunt coons was his business? These are questious that ho can answer only by assuming that a witch has been in fluencing him and his property. He employs a witch doctor, to whom he pours out his tale of woe and yields up his hard earned cash. The doctor cares little for the woe, but the cash is grateful and exhilaratiug. The doctor is sanguine, and declares that he has a method of killing that is strictly orig inal, copyrighted, and warranted to be effectual. In ono case that I came across the doctor learned that an old woman living several miles away was the suspected party, and he commenced a campaign against her. He told the victim too to her house some night and stretch a white cotton string around the building, and tie the ends together with a ''weaver's knot" Then he was to walk around the house seven times each way.recile a given sentence in front of each door while making mysterious marks on it and the cure would be completed. The directions were followed, and I am happy to say were effectual, as the next hunt result ed in tle death of three coons. Another time a small powder was given, which must be swallowed by the witch without her knowing it. The old lady was invited to dinner, the powder placed in her cup of coffee, and the cure was as complete as could be de sired. I'hilaUctpkia Time. Two Unbeliever. The following story is told of Littre, the great French savant: Lcgouve says that shortly after Littre's daughter was born he (Littre) said to his wife: "My dear, you are a good Christian. Briug up your daughter in the ways of re ligion and piety which yon have al ways followed; but ,1 must exact oue condition and that is that when she is fifteen years of age you will bring ber to me. I will then explain my views to her. and she can choose for herself." The mother accepted the condition, years rolled on. the 15th birthday of the child soou came, and the mother entered her husband's study. "You remember what you said to me and what I promised," she. "Your daughter is 15 vears old to-day. She is now ready to listen to you with all the respect and confidence due to the best of fathers. Shall I bring her in?" . "Why certainly," replied 'Littre. "But for what special reason? To ex plain to her my Views! Oh, no, my dear! no, no. You have made of her a good, affectionate, simple, straight forward, bright, and happy creature. Happy, yes; that is the word that in a pure being describes every virtue. And you fancy that I would cover all that happiness and purity with my ideas! Pshaw! my ideas are good enough for me. Who can say that they would be good for her? Who can say that they would not destroy, or at least damage your work? Bring her in so that I mav bless you in her pres ence for all that you have done for her, and so that she may love you more than ever." I, too," added Legouye, at the close of his little anecdote, "have around me believers whom I love, and. I would consider myself a criminal if I troubled their religious convictions with my doubts - and my objections, especially as I know that they find in those con victions nothing but joy, consolation, and virtue." 'Cannibalism Among Alligators. "Arkansaw," the alligator slayer of East Orange, Fla., recently killed one 1 or tne.- varmints ' that nau three of its legs bitten off, a portion of its jaw had . been eaten by a stronger kinsman, and ; holes were found in him where he had paid the penalty of a pound of flesh , simply because bis opponent was the stronger. "Arkansaw" states that 1 alligators feed upon each other to the exieiii mat regulates tne supply to tne demand, and that if they were to cease from their cannibalistic habits they would soon abound in sufficient num bers to pile alligators four deep all over the St John's river country. r' Marriage and the "Death Rate. ' Prof. A N. Kiaer, a Norwegian statis tician, has discovered and declared that the marriage state increases the death rate among women and decreases it among men.

When the scientific world laughed at the humble missionary. Rebmann, who reported over forty years ago that he had found a snow-crowned mountain under the equator, he. merely replied: "I was brought up in Switzerland, and I ought to know a snow-capped peak when I see oue." - That was the first event in the history of modern dis covery in Central Africa, and it is onlv within' the past few weeks that we 'have had the details of Dr. Hans Meyer's final triumph over Kilima njaro, whose snowy, Kibo dome had defeated the efforts of a number of ex plorers. v Reftmann would have felt repaid for all the ridicule that was showered up on him if he could - have seen Dr. Meyer's companion a practiced Alpine climber, with his ice ax and rope and snow spectacles cutting steps up the steep icy slope. Both climbers paused to rest every ten minutes, becauso the rarity of the air made continuous ef fort impossible. In . these periods of rest they could dimly see the far-distant plains through the openings in the clouds below them. Then, when on their secdnd attempt, three da s after their . first effort, they reached the highest point in Africa, about 19,680 feet above the sea, they found them selves on the edge of a great crater over a mile across and 650 feet deep, the icy mantle sinking in terraces from the edge of the crater to the floor, while through a great gap in the west wall a mighty .glacier, , about a mile and a half Jong, swept down the mountain side. J ' - -Seen from below,--the -top -of Kibo looks like s great snow. dome, and no one ever imagined that an abyssmal crater would be found 1 there until Meyer stood on its edge. ; A $10,000 ioss-hbuse was recently dedicated in San Jose Chinatown. -: - Twenty Best Solutions. small-boy spectators, started the rumor that clings to poor Tom to tins nay.
