How a JioY Wakes Up. There he
lies in his crib, a nutbrowo cub of four
years. He sleeps the sleep of healthy
childhood. In the same position he lay
when he dropped into unconsciousness,
oue arm under his head, one leg kicked
out from under the coverlet, lie is per
fectly motionless. Ilia round cheek
pillows itself on the extended arm, pnd
his leg seems to have been arrested in
the middle of the last restless kick, as
the curtain fell over his blue eyes, and he
was fast asleep. You can scarcely per
ceive his regular respiration. A train
of cars thunder by without noise he
might be carried across the street without
awakening. It is morning ; ; daylight
streams into the windows ; the sun shines'
on the hill-tops. The sounds of stirring
life are beginning to be heard about the
house. Watch the boy. " Still and mo
tionless as a figure of marble. As v you
look, the gates of sleep are suddenly un
locked. ' lie is awake in a twinkling
awake all over. Ilia blue eyes are wide
open and bright- his lips part with a
shout his legs fly out in different direc
tions his arms are in rapid motion he
flops over with a spring in ten seconds
be has turned a couple of somersaults,
and presents before you a living illustra
tion of perpetual motion. There is ho
deliberate yawning, no slow stretching of
indolent limbs, no lazy rubbing of sleepy
eyes, no gradual becoming awake about
it With a snap like a pistol shot he is
thoroughly awake and .kicking wide
awake to the top end of each particular
hair. The wonderfull thing about it is its
suddenness and completeness.
The Scientific American gives an ac
count of a family of gigautic Turks. The
father and mother live near ; Damascus,
90 and 67 years old, and weigh respec
tively 520 and 560 pounds. They have
ten sons and five daughters, all living.
The oldest weighs 630 and the youngest,
who liveB in Illinois, 650 and, none of
them weigh less than 500 pounds, nor
under seven feet high the Sucker, the
youngest, being 7 feet 8 iuches. They
arc all well proportioned. ' , :
Murder Run Riot.. i '
It is no use for any political party,
either in or out of power, to attempt to
conceal the fact that a condition of things
approaching to absolute anarchy prevails
at the present moment in many of the
Southern States. A generous desire to
s.often the hardships of defeat, a patriotic
desire to see the Union once again re-,
stored to its pristine splendor, have
hitherto induced loyal Northern men to
overlook certain manifestations of a tur
bulent spirit and to pardon a certain
amount of opposition to the supremacy
of Government. It was hoped that a lit
tle time would soothe , the exasperated
feelings of the vanquished; rebels, and
show them the advantages of returning
to habits of law and order. But these
natural expectations have all been disap
pointed, the leniency of the Government
has been foully abused, and the quondam
Confederates have actually rioted in mur
der and outrage.' In many Southern dis
tricts the Federal authority is ignored
altogether, legally-appointed officers arc
compelled to fly for their lives, justice is
impeded in its action, and the Courts arc
practically closed; criminals of the deep
est dye, whose lives are forfeit to the land
over and over again, defy apprehension
and scoff at judge and jury. Worse than
all this Frecdmen are daily murdered in
cold blood for no other reason than be
cause they are Republican in politics !
It is asserted, on authority that scarcely
admits of a doubt, that five thousand oe
groes have been assassinated in the South
ern States since the election of General i
Grant, and that for these five thousand'
murders not a single criminal has been
brouaht4o justice. This is a horribly ;
startling statement, and necessitates the j
conclusiou that an organized effort is be
ing made to exterminate the blacks. Nor
do the Kuklux miscreants confine their :
operations to the colored race white men i
have repeatedly been killed because they I
were, loyal to the Government, and there j
fore obnoxious to the "chivalrous" South- j
erners. Now these facts suggest some i
very pertinent queries : Are the Fede
ral authorities prepared to forego all pow- I
er or jurisdiction in the feouth r Arc the
murderous conspirators of the Ku-KIux
I to be supreme masters there, and to lay
II .11 f 1, a. .
aown tne law ior an comers i Are loyal
aud law abiding citizens to carry their j
lives in their hands from day to day, and
receive no protection ? The answer to
these questions which will be thunder
ed forth throughout the Union, from sea
to sea, wherever a faithful citizen is to be
found is an emphatic and decisive 'No !'
Then tbre is only one course to be taken.
The Government must restore order and
swoop ,wy terrorism , With a Strong
hand. To do this, every soldier in the
Union, horse, foot and artillery, must be
employed, if necessary. There must be
no faltei jng in the task ; no half meas
ures must be tolerated Ku-Kluxism must
be stamped out, burnt out, shot out, bay
oneted out, no matter at what cost. The
American Government would not be
worthy of existence if it permitted its
authority to be thus set at defiance, its
officials maltreated, and its citizens mur
dered by infamous rebels, whom a mis
taken clemency has saved from tho gal
lows. The necessity of Government in
terference in the disturbed districts is so
patent that we cannot understand how
any man living under the shadow of
the American flag can raise l is voice
against it. We should eertainly lie dis
posed to regard any individual opposing
the measures which alone can re-establish
tranquility as accomplices in the murders
and outrages that disgrace the South.
The thing is altogether beyond the sphere
of party politics, ; and is a question of
loyalty .or rebellion. S. F. Chronicle, o
Died of a Frting Pan. "Died of a
frying pan," is the v epithet which the
Columbus, Ga., Enqtiirer says appropri
ately belongs to the grave yards of thous
ands of Southern people, oa account of
the manner of preparing food in that
part of the country. The editor says of
the Southern man ; .
His standard food is a piece of bacon
fried ; the fat taken, and with flour or
meal mixed int ) a heavy mass and con
signed to the inevitable frying pan, and
outcomes a lump of leathery-looking
sometlung which the stomach : f an
ostrich could not digest. Give him a
chicken, and what does he do with itf
Cuts it up, and into the ' frying pan it
goes. After being slowly simmered un
til hard, it is put into a deep : dish l and
grease poured over it, and what is not
soaked up in the chicken is made way
with by soaking his leathery bread in it.
Give him a rich, jucy fctsak, and ' into
tbe frying pan it goes, and it is slowly
simmered and simmered until no koife
will cut it, and thea eaten with heavy
bread, soaked in the remaining fat ; and
thus good wholesome food in quantity
sufficient to afford a wholesome meal for
a French artisan's lamily, is by the fry
ing pan process rendered not only barely
enough for one man, but converted into
a slow poison anda frightful source of
disease. 1 Scarcely a day passes but some
poor sufferer applies to me for reliet irons
tie "frying pan dieeasc," which relief I
am unable to give without an entire
change in his or her habits, and, unless
such change is effected, whose appropriate
epitaph will be, "Hied ot a trying i u.
