NEW Diszese.--A new malady has
lately broken out in Detroit, of such a
peculiar character that both doctors and
patients have until lately been puz-
zled to account for it. Its symptoms
are eausea, headache and other indica-
tions of a disordered stomach. The
cause has been discovered by a cheraist
who drew from a hydrant, opposite the
residence of a lady who was sick with

A 'Kilmarnock Carrier's Dream.
IP the golden days of stage coaches
and carrier's, over half a century ago, a
party of carriers from the south were
rendezvoused in their usual " hostel"
in Rilmarnoek. The landlady, garrul-
ous, inquisitive and superstitious, was
considered an adept in the then popu-
lar practice of reading dreams, One of
the party, a wag named Gordon,
thought to puzzle ' the landlady and
amuse himself and his companions by
creating the dream which follows. On
Mrs. Boniface inquiring one morning
how her guest; had slept, Gordon an-
swered "that he had been troubled by
a terrible dreala, but that otherwise
they had been quite comfortable." Her
curiosity was at once aroused, as he had
expected, and she exclaimed:
" A dream! let me heaft, man ;
mayhe I can make something oot o't."
" Wed, then," quoth Gordon, "1
dreamed I was in Nilraiirnock, as is noo
the case, an' I thooht ht !ere was a man
i
paradin' the streets wi' he biggest car
fu' o' the biggest barrels I ever saw, an'
Johnnie Tinglura, the ceier, gaun afore
him wi' his bell, annoencin' that the
man wad buy wives, sell wives, or swap
wives wi' onybody. Weel, thinks I,
I'll swap wives wi' ye; an' sae I thocht
I did. 1 Sae, I got ane o' the barrels wi'
my new wife int hoisted on my ain
cart, an' took the road hame. At the
first toll -bar dot cam' the queerest
bleert-lookin' creature ever I saw, and
in a stern yoice demanded what had I
in the barrel.
'My -wife," quoth I.
“ Na, na, nae wife," said lied "it's
gunpowder; but I'll eune prove that
Sae he geed in an' fetched'oot e, het

there was a repeat terrific explosion,
sendi4 horse and cart, wife, toll -keeper,
an' your servant, mem, Lord only knows
where. So I awoke, and behold it was
a, dream." .
It would be tedious to follow all the
labyrinthine windings, ra,vellings, and
unravellings with which she endeavor-
ed to give cohesioii and meaning to his
nonsense; but her ultimate deductions
were:
" Troth, gudeman, I leer there is nal
ewer guid. an agreement between you
an' your wife."
The party roared with laughter, for
it was a fact notorious to them that such
domestic discord was indeed the case.
Gordon was thoroughly worsted, and
though, no doubt, he had many a
dream after that one, it was the last
he got read by the ale -wife of Kilmar-
nock.

Love Only.
Never marry a man who has only hie
love for you to recommend him. It is
very fascinating, but it does not make
the man. If he is not otherwise what
he should be, you will never be happy.
The most perfect man who never did
love you should never be your
husband. But, though marriage
without , love ' is terrible, love
only will not do. If the man is dishon-
orable to other men, or mean, or given
to any vice, the time will come when
you will either loath him or sink to his
level. It is hard to remenaber amidst
kisses and praises that there is anything
else in the world to be done or thought
of but love -making; but the days of
life are many, and the husband must
be a guide to be trusted—a companion,
a friend as well as a lover. Many a giri
has married a man whom she knew to
be anything but good, “ beceuse he loeed
her so." And the flame has died out
on the hearthstone of home before long,
and. beside it she has been sitting with
one that she could never hope would
lead her heavenward—or who, if she
followed him as a wife should, would
guide her steps to perdition. Marriage

A Horse Eaten Alive by Hogs.
Horton, a tin peddler, last week put
up for the night at James Ballard's,
Peeksville, in the town of East Fish -
kill. His horse, which was somewhat
the -worse for old age and hard work,
wiai taken to the stable, his Manger fill-
ed with provender, a good bed made for
him, and then he was left for the night.
en
nunabee of hogs which had been ac-
customed to feed on the refuse of a
slaughter house dose by, got access by
some 'means during the night to the
stable. Finding the poor nag quietly
reposing inhis stall, they attacked him,
and commenced gnawing away at his
flesh. The horse was unable to get up,
and was forced to submit to the terrible
ordeal of beieg eaten alive. The next
meriting the peddler went to look for
his horse, to find only a portion of him
there, -with but a spark of life left. The
poor beast was soon afterward despatqh-
ed to relieve him hare his misery.--

Tam. Irvine.
Long before the iron-horae found its iji
ward course through. the bogs of Strath -
alien; there lived in that locality a.
worthy named Tam Irvine, a weaver
,by trade;and hard drinker by custom.
It was customary with Tam when he
got on the sprole, as he ternaed his
drunken orgies, to ma,ke great detours
through the strath, that is to say if no
person would accompany him home.
On one occasion while being - catered
home by a , cronie, he lay down beside
the river Allan, and to all the entreaties
and persuasions of his companion, he
lent a deaf ear. All his coaxing being
in vain he resorted. to another expedient.
Filling Iris hat with water, he emptied
the contents with no small velocity on
Tom's face, exclaiming at the same
time, "Rise, rise, Tam. There's the
Allan doon on ye." This had the de-
sired effect. Tam took to his heels, and
ne'er halted till he reached his own
door. On another occasion, when re-
turning home half=seas over, each time
he lost his equilibrium and fell, he was
heard audibly Tto quote the text—"It is
not in man to direct his own footsteps."
A Singular Man.
A gentleman gave a letter of intro-
duction to a student of raesic about to
visit Leipsic, who wished to put him-
self under the instru6tions of Professor
X., a famous teacher in that city. Upon
the student's return home the gentle-
man asked :
"How did you like the professor ?"
"Oh, wonderfully! He gave mo fine
lassos; but he is a ver,y singular man.
He kept praying all the time he was
teaching/ me."
"Praying? What do you mean?"
Well, while Ievas playing, he clasp-
ed his hands, lifted his eyes to the ceil-
ing, a,nd kept sayietg, Great Heaven,
what sin have I comenitted to deserve
this punishment?'"

meetings; tb.ere have -glee been three
. Inoonday meetings, and three evening
temperance meetings, at Which the
evaegelists were not present, about s,
dozen prayer -meetings for young men
and as many for women. Daily union
prayer meetings were held for three
weeks before their advent. The total
attendance at the public meetings elm- ,
ingithe last four weeks is estirciat,ed at
145,000, whicb probably does not ree
present more than 50,000 or 60,000 in-
dividuals. All estimates of the num-
ber of converts are conjectural, and
alley range from 200 to 1,000. One pas-
tor has a list of 50 names of those who
ishould by their social connections Unit
\Vial his church, although not all of
these IntAre been converted. since Mr,:
lloody's arrival. Others have similar
lists of varying length, and there -axe
probablet300 or 400 on 'these lists. Te
" these are to be added those on whom
no church has any special claim, and
the large number of converts who be,
long out of the city. All the pastori
- are of the opinion. that the greates1
fruits of the work will appear in th
next four weeks through the meeting
of the churches and ;the private wor
of the members, many of whom hav
been awakened to activity by this moe-
ment. Mr. Moody encourages tin
-view, and the young men's meeting, c
tablished at his suggestion, will doub
less prove an important factor in th
work. The expenses of the work w
foot up about $2,000, most of which h
been raised by subscription. T
evane.elists themselves receive no pa
fromthe conamittee, their support col
ing from private SoUrCOS. They alwa
stipulate that they shall not recei
any pay from the eommittee, end
ways object to any public subscriptio,
for their benefit. This puts them in I
perfectly independent position, and,
the public is not asked. to eontribu
they do not feel obliged. to publisb t
particulars of their incomes.
