The Exeter Times, 1884-12-4, Page 7In the hack yard hln*se nest
door but one to my abode (here are
stored at the present tinie no less than
nineteen casks full Of tortoises. This
morning co?npleiut was made to me of
the mai tit were making, and ae-
laglet
'e*mioed the Basks, One
head e.ed nod I removed the
beerit
Bocci inside. The cask was;
mplyyaai of tortoises thrown in any
how. 0 . poor ereaturo at the top had
its seen crushed in, which speaks vol-
times about what they must havo . un-,
dergoue. And the smell—.well. we are
usoa to smells here in the East End,
and do not mind them very much, bu
the smell of these poor creatures was
too much for even our practiced nos•
trils; many of the tortoises had evident -
1 died,some of them, perhaps icing ago.
Now these casks were brought into the
yard last Tuesday, and no attempt has
been made even to sort out the living
from the dead, From a rough calcine -
time 'should say that there were at
least 15,000 tortoises packed into the li
-nineteen casks. Tho owner does not
reside upon the premises; but he rents
the hoes° and lets it out to tenants,
and every year About this tilde Wallis
yyard to store tortoises ie. alms he is
himself free from the nuisanoo they
cause. I have complained to the lned-
ilial officer, and the result will doubt-
less be that the casks will be removed,
and. as far as we are concerned, the
nuisance will be At An end. The tore
toisos will undoubtedly ho taken to an-
other yard, and then as tilcy aro want-
ed each cask will be unpacked and the
contents exposed for sale upon the cos-
terinonger5i carts. The casks ought to
be unpacked at once and the contents.
sorted, the dying dispatched without
delay, and the Hying at least allowed
some place whore they can stretch their

Otte of the most curious traits of tete
Ayala Indians, recounted by Lieut. F.
Schwa,tka in a late number of Sasses,
Is their power of aoeiug the motion of
a fish in water. The Yukon is very
muddy, so much so that whoa an ordin-
ary pint cup is filled with it nothing
can be seen until the sediment has
settled. The water is ten or twelve
feet deep and the river wide, Yet
when a solitary salmon comes up this
river des coming is notified, its position
identified, and it is often caught in a
hand -net. Some person, generally an
old squaw, is oa the lookout in front of
the huts on Wo bank. At her call a
man runs to the beach, picks up his
canoe, paddle, and not. and guided at
first chiefly by the advice o1 other In-
dians who gather on the shom but as
he approaches relying more on himself,
shoots the canoe into the proper posi-
tion, and, while he regulates its movo-
meets with his left hand, plunges the
not to the bottom with the right. When
it is remembered that the mouth of the
not has an area of only about two
square feat tho power to catch a soli-
tary salmon by thrusting it directly
into its course seems almost miracu-
lous. No white man could see any
ovideaco of the motion of the fish, yet
the natives assort that motion is com-
municated from the bottom to the top.
Out of seven attempts watched by
Lieut. Sehwatka two were successful,
though tho fish were swimming from
250 to 800 yards from tho bank. Sev-
eral hundred fishes caught in this way
ore in their houses and on their
ffoldings.
ZI. Gounod on Blindness,
If I hen to choose (says M. Gounod)
one of these two terrible calamities,
deafness or blindness, I do not think I
should hesitate an instant. The deaf
are generally said to be less cheerful
than the blind; but notwithstanding
that, and notwithstanding the fact
that loss of hearing would affect me in
regard to that which has always been
the source of my very keenest and
deepest feeling—I mean music—yet,
between being deaf and never main
seeing anything one loves, there is in
my opinion so vast a gulf as to make
that one consideration sufficient to
decide the question. One must not
forget that a musician can enjoy music
to a great degree by merely reading it;
and though the actual sensation of the
sounds is necessary to make the im-
pression absolutely complete, yet it is
sufficiently strong to convey melody,
harmony, rhythm, quality, and all the
other elements of music—in a word, to
give a real mental hearing of the piece
so as to stamp it on the mind without
the aid of the external sounds. it is
well known that Beethoven wrote
many of his masterpieces after he was
completely deaf; but he cannot have
written them without hearing them in
Himself, and it therefore follows that
the converse can take place, and that
music can be heard by merely reading
it. Deafness, thelrefore, does not en-
tirely destroy musical enjoyment. In
fact, as far as the sense of hearing
goes, every composer, when ho writes
down his ideas, is virtually on the,
same footing as a deaf person; for
what he writes is the product of his
mind alone. But blindness! the priva-
tions it implies; the sacrifices it impos-
es! the virtual imprisonment of not
being able to walk alone! the dismal
darkness of never beholding the face of
Nature! the silence and solitude of
being unabhf to read or write! As
long as, he mitt read a book, a deaf man
remains in close communication with
the whole circle of human thought.
Historians, poets, philosophers, critics
--all are stil1,l s comp anions; the
world of Paintin sand sculpture is still
opento'hitu: The ,blind man, on the
other hand, is dependent on others for,
all he wants; he has to ask for ever'
thing; he is the prisoner of ,rasone

The pectin tree is found in a wild
state in the woods of the various sec-
tions of the South and, West. It grows
to a very large size, and bears. yearly
many bushels of fine -flavored nuts.
Though little or 110 attention has been
lid to these valuable trees, cultiva-
tion greatly improves them, the nut
growing touch larger aud.improving in
flavor. The paean tree.lilwes to a great
age, and continues long in bearing.
`ere is no good Teasel* why it should
not be grown extensively in all parts of
the United States. It is well adapted
to almost any kind of soil, doing well
even on rocky hills and waste land.
There is no nut or fruit tree more
valuable and requiring so little atten-
tion. Every farmer, in my opiuicn,
should have his nut orchard, and culti-
vate especially the pecan for home use
or sale. The nuts always tind ready
sale at fancy prices. In planting the
trees the only object is to obtain good
feels nuts, and of a geed early variety,
of large size, from which to grow the
trees. If it is nrefe-red to set out the
plants. get healthy trees of a good va-
riety 1 to 2 years old.
Playing With, a Gree nbora.
At the Michigan Central depot the
other day, says the Detroit Free Press,
three or four citizens, who happened
to be waiting for the sari° traits to
come in got to talking about confidence
been And their victims, and one of theist
pointed to a particularly verdant spec -
*M013, of the young-ban-froni-tilo-noun•
try and said:
"That fellow would be A ripe added
for the fraternity; The chums are
that he could be bamboozled as easy as
rolling off a log"
"I dunno." replied another: "Sup-
pose you work ole him a little as an ex
periment. Here is a check that I will
611 out, and then I will come in at the
right time as your pal."
The idea was entered into, and in a
Zeta m=Wonts No. 1 put himself in the
way of the greenhorn and lunde souse
inquiries about the trains, and a asoer.
talned that the stranger was going to
Michigan City.
"Sot Why, I am going right there
myself. I own a saw -mill there."
"Yew dew, eh?"
"Yes, and I'm here looking for a
foreman. Uwe a bees placefor a bran
at $60 a month."
'That's me to a huckleberry. I've
worked in saw -mills all my life"
"You can havo tiro place. and 1'm.
gladto got hold of such a man. Con-
sider yourself engaged for a year at $60
a month.
"Snakes and ton. cats but, ain't that
luck," chuckled greeny. "Stranger
you must bo nn awful goad man."
"Well, I run a Sunday school and
try to load an upright life. Maybe au
want a month's salary in advance?'
"Woogh! you don't say so! No, 1
guess I kin git along, es I havo $43 in.
my pocket."
At this moment the pal came up with
the usual bill, which must he paid at
once or the now saws for the mill would
not bo shipped, No. 1 had only $3 or
$4 in bills, but offered a check for $200.
Following out the usual programme
greenhorn was asked to hand over his
$45 and take the cheek for security.
The words wore hardly out of tho
man's lips whop greeny spit on both
hands at once, shot out his right and
loft in chorus„ and there was a thump!
thump! which knocked two mon flatter
than pancakes.
"Softly, gentlemen --softly," com-
manded greeny as half a dozen men
rushed up. "I look like a last year's
pumpkin saved over in the basement
of a canning factory, but after travel-
ing for eleven years with Forepaugh I
ought to know buckwheat from gos-
lings. Pick 'em up and sponge off
the blood and turn lom loose. 'They'll
feel tired all the rest of the day."
All Sorts or Flavoring.
"We manufactuie most of the flavor-
ings you see here," said a merchant to a
reporter of the New York Mail and Ex-
press. "Some little is imported from
Italy, France and Germany, but the
duty is so heavy -$2.50 a pound—that
it does not pay."
"What kind of extracts do you use
principally, and who buys theme"
"Fruit -syrups, oils, perfumes, bottled
extracts, colorings and' tobacco flavors.
They aro used by confectioners, soda -
water bottlers, perfumers, druggists,
brewers, and cigar and tobacco manu-
facturers."
"Can you explain the manufacture
and use?"
"The manufacture is a secret, xnd it
would not do to give it away. They
are principally extracts from pure fruit
but in some instances chemicals are
used, but never so as to be injurious.
The uses they aro applied to are many;
all the nice confectionery is flavored
with some fruit syrup, extract of oil of
almonds.being very popular, and cost-
ing about $12 a pint, free from prussic
acid. You may be surprised to know
that as a rule the. various brands of to-
bacco are formed through the,;use of
some flavor. See. here we have Hav-
ana cigar flavor, Santiago smokin4 to-
bacco flavor, and even cigar colorings;
here are the directions: Dissolve one
pint of this flavor is four gallons of
water, or•in one gallon of alcohol and
three gallons of water."
"Are not some of these flavors very.
expensive? •
'They vary in price from 50 cents a
pound to $1.50. Oil of attar of roses
is $12 an ounce: Oil . of cinnamon,
used in confectionery 10 12 an ounce.
