The great audibility of souuds du ring the niirht Is a phenomenon of considerable interest, undone which has been observed even by the an cients. In crowded cities, or in their vicinity, the eli'ect was gener ally ascribed to the rest of animated beings, while in localities where such an explanation was inapplica ble, It was suppoaed to arise from a favorable direction of the prevailing wind. Home authors ascribe this fact to the cessation of the humming of Insects, the singing of birds, and and the action of the wind on the leaves of tho trees; but Huron Hum boldt Justly maintains that this can not be the cause of It on tho Orinoco where tho buzz of insects is much louder in the night than in the day, and where the breeze never rises until after sunset. Hence lie was led to ascribe the phenomenon to the perfect transparency and uni form density of the idr. Tlie Wayside Inn.

Tin: deceased David H. Terry was at nno thno chief Justice of tho su premo court of Callornla, and has always Ix'ou a prominent figure in tho political history of the state. Tho killing of l S.

He was married to Sarah Aithca Hill, who claimed to bo tho wife of ex-Senator Sharon, while prosecuting her claim against the Sliiuon eMato. Tills brought him into a ii vent fill atti tude toward Justice Filed, who last year rendered a decision In the I'liltod States circuit court denying her claim to 1st the wife of Sharon. M i-s.

They rallied and squandered, those men at arms, they searched tho country through; and another governor caino along and Joined the searchers, too. They looked in tho clock anil under the stairs, and un der the bed they peered, and out In tho kitchen and every where, but tlie Uaiiis had disappeared. They felt In their pockets and looked In their hats and lowered a man down hi tho well, but where all those sluggers had disappeared to, there wasn't nobody could tell. They asked a boy at Lowry's store, and the blind man down by the hall, ami the woman who keeps tho can dy shop, but they hadn't seen noth ing at all. They dragged the pond at Sawyer's mill, and they ques tioned the tollgatu man, mid all through tho let at tho back of hit house, tho governor raced and ran. Hut all In vain for wherever he looked, went, tho people lie sought were gone, and the only place where he didn't look, was where tlie light was on.

Many tiro they who have laughed at the story of tho green steamboat llreman who sat on the safety valve to prevent it leaking. Yes thousands are repeating his folly every day. They are troubled with blotches, pimples, eruptions, salt rheum, bolls carbuncles, ulcers and old sores, and tiro contenting themselves with sup pressing the symptoms without re moving the cause. They sit on these safety valves oy which nature is driving out blood inpurities, in stead of using Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery, which cures by removing the cause, which is in the blood. It is a wonderful blood pu rifier and invigorating tonic.
