Yesterday waawhat might be termed a
"Regular Mongrel" a little rain, slight
hail, occasional auuBhino, frequently cloudy
with considerable wind at times during tho
days.
There seems to be a regular mania in tho
last 12 uiontha for steamboats breaking
their shafts. We could cite to at least ten
or twelve boats within tho last six months
that have broken their shafts. There is a
great deal of expense attached to such
accidents, and we attribute tho frequent
occurrence to the material used in making
them. Aa ia former yeara we rarely ever
heard of these accidents. We hope that
steamboat owners will possibly be prompt
ed in future by tho. frequent recent ac
cidents to have the very best material used
in making shafts.
Mr. James Surtees, chiof clerk of the Jas.
W. Gaff, was a passenger on the Shinklc
from Memphis yesterday'. Ho left her hero
and took rail for Cincinnati at 4:20 last
evening. UeinformcdusthattheGaff would
have her shaft repaited at Memphis, and
would be ready to leave there by the last of
next week for Cincinnati.
Two of tho larpest shafts ever forged are
boing made in the cast at Chester, Pa.,
whose beam engines wilt have cylinders
110 inches in diameter and 11 feet stroke.
The material used in making these shafts
consists of scraps of wrought iron, which
are run into barst wo or more feet long,
and tho bars are then welded together at
the ends and put under a powerful steam
hammer. This process will continue until
the shafts are completed. Etch will be 40
fact long and 27 to 30 inches in diameter,
and will weigh moo than 40 tons.
The elegant passenger steamer Andy
Baum, Capt. II. J. Vinton master, is due
here early to-morrow morning from Cin
cinnati for Memphis. Tho Baum has ex
cellent accommodations. For passage rutes
see W. P. Lambdiu, agent; office at the

THE FARMERS AND THE LITERARY
REVOLUTION.
A, recent issuu of the "American Agricul
turist" coutuius some insinuations reflecting
upon the character of tho Useful Knowl
edge Publishing Company, of New York.
They are insinuations ouly, no direct alle
gations being made. Their only fouuda
tiou is malice aud fear, on tho part of tho
Agriculturist publisher. The avoriujo cost
ol hooks published by tho Useful Knowl
edge Publishing Company, in proportion to
tlieir real value ia less Hum one tilth of the
Hvenij;e cmt of the agricultural bonks pub
lished by tho Orange Judd Co. Within
less thau three yeurs tho "Literary Revolu
tion' g:ivu tho American people over ono
million dollars' worth of the choicest books
the country ever Keen; more in bulk and in
real vuluo than Judd has given them in a
third of a century, and more than he would
Imvu givun them for live million dollars.
No class is abused more abominably by the
book publishers than tho farmers. 1 was a
farmer buy before I was a publisher, and
-know souitithiugof both sides. Twenty-five
I oars ago 1 was a uarolooted boy, driving
an ox breaking team through the huzol
brush and prairie grass of Iowa, and read
ing Grimshaw's "England," and "Tho New
York Tribunu" betweeu times nnd by tho
firelight at night, aud I got there a little too
much of "Useful Knowledge" und of
strength to allow baseless slander to over
throw tho enterprise to which I have given
my life. Judd shall realize his fenr that
tho Useful Knowledgo Publishing Com
puuy will publish agricultural hooks as well
us other books, aud it will notch aro, o $1.30
for a book that does not cost 1 Sets, to
manufacture. Iu rosponsu to pressing aud
almost distressing culls Irom all over tho
country, from farmers, farmers' boys and
toHcheis, it will also enter thu field of school
book publishing presently, and wo shall
sea what will become of the high prices of
tho rich and grasping publishers in that
fluid. Tho Useful Knowledge Publishing
Company does what Judd. and no other of
tho old line publishers do, its sends its books
to any part or the Unitod States, and allows
ptivifege of examination before payment is
required. It supplies Its agents with cop
ies of its cheap and beautiful publications
for distribution Mnong their customers, for
examination U their leisure, and allows tho
return of any books not wauled. Specimen
pages of its publications, catalogues, and
terms to club agents, booksellers, and can
vassers will be sent free upon request. Ad

Traveling in Europe,
Senator Thunnan, of Ohio, thus ex
pressed hinisolf to a friend regarding his
recent visit to Europe; "I enjoyed my
self very much, sir, very much, indeed;
but I have ono serious regret. I am
very sorry that I did not have an oppor
tunity of seeing Prince Bismarck and
tho Queen of England." "And why do
you wish so particularly to sec them?"
a.sked tho friend, in surprise. To which
the Senator, with a sly twinlilo in his
eye. but till with his utmost severity of
manner, answered: "Because, sir, after
seeing them, I might have been able to
tay that I had met two people in Europo
who did not want a sixpence from me!"
Dr. Lcnz, after having journeyed
through Morocco and Timbuotoo, Africa,
declares the great Sahara is not.a desert
at all; at no point is there a depression
below tho level of tho sea, as shown on
the map of certain geographers, and
which led to wild schemes of converting
the so-called desert into a great inland
sea.
A Popular Tunic
FOR WEAK LUNG a AND CONSUMPTION.
No preparation ever introduced to tha
American public, for the relief and cure of
cougns, uUis, sore Throat, Debilitated
Constitutions, Weakness of tho Lungs or
Consumption in the incipient or advanced
stages of tho disease, has ever met with tho
indorsements of phyncians or patients as
the celebrated "Tolu, Rock and Ryo." Tho
repeated and continued sales of the article
everywhere aro the best evidence of its real
merits. Letters and testimonals fromeverv
