In 18.58 the rich alluvial lands of Ash

of Arkansas, readily commanded from
$25 to $50 per acre, and the uplands
from $5 to $10 per acre, but now these

acre in the lowlands and the lull lands
can be bought for from $1 to $5. The
excessive cultivation of cotton is the
cause.

A few days since, while a party of
loggers were felling trees on Salmon
ureeK, forest county, one or them, a
Swede, accidentally found himself in the
way of a falling tree, which he was un
able to avoid. His fellow-workmen
rushed forward as the tree struck
the ground, and found the man quite
dead, witn a nmD of the tree sticking
through hit body, the limb having evi
dently passed through the iieart and
killed him instantly. ' It was impossible
to withdraw it without mutilating the
body, and so the limb was sawed off on
each side and the remains, buried with
a stick of wood running through his
vitals.
A story is told of how Barnum once
succeeded in emptying his big show at
a time when it was densely crowded and
thousands were waiting outside to ob
tain admission. He tnew that a start
was all that was needed to effect this
purpose, but how to manage that was
the rub. At length a bright idea occur
red to him. Painting up in large let

other body making for the corner where

in a few minutes the show was emptied,

that it was quite impossible to torn

Old Clocks.
The old irass clocks went only thirty
hours, and were set in motion by
weight attached to a chain which passed
over a sheave having spikes in tht
groove which caught in the links of the
chain and required to be drawn up ev
ery day. There was a counterpoise at
the other end of the chain, and some
times a single weight was contrived to
serve both the going and the striking
parts, and there was occasionally an
alarm. On the introduction of the lono
pendulum, clockssecm to have assumed
a different character. Catgut was sub
stituted for the chain, and barrels were
introduced, on which the catgut was
wound up, and, a greater length of line
being employed, clocks were made toe
for eight days instead of thirty hours,
and a chime of bells playing every quar
ter of an hour was often added; the
weights and long pendulum hung down,
and as there was danger of their action
being interfered with, tall wooden case
were made to protect them, on the tot
of which the movement was. placed.
This was, I believe, the origin and date
of the tall, upright clock cases, which
were f ten made of ornamental woods,
and enriched with fine marquetry. 1
have otto myself in an early marquctrj
case, made by 1 nomas Tompion, with a
beautiful set of chimes, about 1690, and
it is an admirable timekeeper, thougl
it has only the original iron wire forth
pendulum rod; and similar instances
are numerous. The earlier cases art
made of oak and walnut, the mahogany
cases being of the following century,
when that wood was introduced. The
brass "bntton and pillar clocks" seem
to have gone out of use about this time,
and probably few were made at the end
of the seventeenth century; but that
will appear more clearly if I roseivc
many communications from the owners
of dated examples. With regard to the
name of brass clocks, I have heard them
called very many .years ago "button
and pillar clocks." The meaning and
origin of the name I cannot tell, unless
it is derived from the pillars at the cor
ners and the hook or bntton on which
the clock may be hung up against the
wall. Notes and Queries.
Emperor William's Dream.
A Berlin correspondent of the London
Daily Acws relates thefollowingcpisode
of the German Emperor's recent visit tc
the hygienic exhibition: While inspect
ing the pavilion of the City of Carlsbad
his majesty noticed a small china cup,
bearing the dale 1865, and decorated
with a blue silk ribbon. Ou inquiry he
was informed that this was the enp
from which he had taken the waters at
Carlsbad in 18(53, preserved in memory
of his visit. Taking the cup in his
hand, the emperor said with a smile:
"Yes, I remember that time very well.
It's twenty years ago. and yet it nearly
seems as if only months had passed
since then, my recolIeetions.are so viv
id. They remind me of a small episode
which, perhaps. 1 may tell you. One
night I dreamt I stood by the Kur-sprini,
and a man handed me a cup containing
poison. When 1 awoke I laughed at
this dream, for every morning at the
spring I received my cup from the hands
ot a charming gin, and that she had no
desire to take my life 1 felt positive.
that morning, 1 went to the spring at
the usual hour; but when I found a man
present this time, waiting to hand me
the cup, instead of the girl, who was
prevented from coming by illness, or
some other reason, then the memory of
my dream made mo feel quite uneasy
aud shivery for a moment 1 remained
uncertain for some instants, but then
suppressed my suspicions, saying tomy
self : The good Carlsbaders cannot have
any thoughts of murder. And then
looked once more at the kind-looking
man and at all the pleasant surround
ings, and 1 emptied the cup at a draught!
Of course it did not harm me. On the
contrary, my stav at Carlsbad was very
beneficial to me.

It occupied about three seats by throw
ing its loug coat-tail at full length on
either side, and crossing its legs, it oc
cupied a large portion of the center of
the car. It was about medium bight,
dark complexion, and what purported
to be a mustache adorned its upper lip,
and on either side of its face about ;
dozen hairs, stiff with cosnietique, were
combed towards its nose. On its left
hand it had a laroe seal ring, aud the
thumb and forefinger of a light yellow
glove were pulled on m such a manner,
however, that the ring showed to great
advantage. lis pantaloons were so tight
that it was with difficulty it could as
sume a sitting posil ion, and after hav
ing once gamed that position it was
obliged to rise and lav its long coat-tails
out evenly ou either side. Then having

DROPS OP WATER.
Mr. Joseph Bicknell, No. 642 Main street, Cam
bridgeport, Mass., writes. April 87, 1885; ' I have
been tejribly afflcted for a number of years wiih
gravel and kidney disease. Hy urine wnuinod
bnck-dnst deposits, and at times 1 could not pass
my water except in drops and with great pain;
and have had to get tip as many as fifteen timet
daring the night. I tried feveral physicians but
they dote me no good, but a friend of mine, who
had nsed Hunt's Remedy t Id me to get a bottle
and try it. He h id been cured of a severe case
similar to mine, aud that others had nsed llnnt's
Remedy in Cambridge tnd pronounced it a medi
cine of real merit. After being repeatedly urged
purchased a bottle, and before I had used all of
it I passed a atone as large as a pea, followed by
smaller ones. I have nsed in all ten bottles, and
it has completely cwed me. My kidneys are in
excellent condition, and for one of my aire, (ft1)
sixty-eight years, I can truly say I feel like a
yonng man with strength and vitality. My family
use the remedy, and would not be without it, and
never fail to recommend it to our friends and
neighbors in Canibridgt and Boston. Yon arc at
liberty to use my nume in praise of the best ki-i-ney
and liver medicine. Hunt's Remedy."
' Did Wonders for Ele."
The above words are from Mr. Lewis Keen, No
9 Highland Avenue, Maiden, Mass., April, 2th,
18S3. Hesavs: ' I have been troubled for years

gravel, wi n severe pains in my back and groins '
I h d great trouble in parsing water, it being j
scanty, and accompanied by ;errille burning, the i
vessel being coated will, biick-dust deposit I was ;
recommended to i.tc Hunt's Kemcdy by a friend
who had been conipl tely cured of a similar j
troubie 1 purchased a b..tlle at the dmgisls, ;
and commenced to improve at once. 1 have used j
but two bottles, and it has done wonders forme;
ho more kidney trooblp, no more paiu. It has :
given me new life, and I would not be without ;
Hunt's Remedy at any price. It is all that It is .
recommehded to be, and I cbeerf nlly give this tes- !
