Rooms 15, 17 and 19 Nathan Block, Los Angeles, May 10 A HINDOO SPIRITUALIST. In Western countries spiritualism has taken the place of witchcraft as a profession; but in the East, all over Asia, the exercise of witchcraft, pure and simple, a very popular—indeed, an overcrowded—calling. The native doctors all dabble more or less in occult sciences, and necromancy itself is a flourishing trade. A case has very recently occurred in Bombay in which a doctor conjured up a large assortment of "djinns" (spirits) for the purpose of imposing upon a rich patient, and pretended to have mortal combats with the aid of magic cardamoms and enchanted musk, as many wonders as any Allaïlin of the Arabian Nights. Yet, after all, there is very little cause for surprise in the fact of India being a land of easy beliefs, for the very air is charged with legends, and every object in the landscape, living or inanimate, is the center of a group of superstitions. The supernatural hardly exists for the Hindoo, for to his liberal credulity everything seems natural. The ghosts and spirits which frequent his hamlet are to him almost as material as his own flesh and blood kinsman, and he would as soon think of running counter to the caprices of the particular djinns which preside over the fortunes of his house as he would of opposing the decisions of the village council. That his oxen should die from the breath of a malicious gnome whose palace roof he had inadvertently broken in while plowing seems to him quite as plausible an explanation of their death as the poisonous weed on which he has found the oxen feeding; and when the women of the village carry round the infected houses a dead chicken tied to a pole, to propitiate Sectla, the goddess of small-pox, the handlet looks on with all the comfortable assurance of protection that we in the West attach to vaccination. In the particular case I refer to the doctor's victim was even more than usually complacent, and the swindler more than usually audacious. It commenced with his having an unpleasant skin affection, and going to a doctor for someointment. The doctor, however, saw at a glance that it was no ordinary cutaneous disorder, but a malicious species of enchantment practiced upon his client by certain evil ones of the air, over whom fortunately he, the doctor, had private control. A hundred rupees make one dollar) was all that was needed for the preliminaries of disenchantment, and, the cash forth-coming, the doctor at once took the genii in hand. Yet, do what he could in the matter of exorcism, the malady continued. It appears that at this stage a foreign demon of exceptional malignity had overpowered the ordinary one—"the common or garden" demon, so to speak—which had hitherto troubled the sufferer, and to rout the foreigner not less than twenty pounds worth of "ammonia" was needed. Having secured the money, the doctor disappeared. In fact he went on a pilgrimage on the private account of his own soul, leaving his client in Bombay under vows of inviolable secrecy. came to life again, and quipped the king of the mask and bangles, and wicked queen of the great brobidity and rings, and wonderful sights on them was duly recounted in police courts the other necromancy, howler at last decamped, and all his original skin damage and bound by terrible incantations two hundre day for two months and while not to breathe any soul about what had occurred. These facts, gravely justice, sound incredulous recent disclosures in cases, it is not easy to tell we ought to fix the credibility. But in this humorous and intriguing delusion that the victim among his acquaintances led to a friend that he confidants did not question abundantly on record verse with men, and then them do live by the sea this gentleman he speaks he had given away mankind and many pounds' worth was equally beyond doubt more properly have been expenditure than the whole lives of woven with and surroung ligible and the mystic oceans impossible; and the victim's money had might have continued on intimate terms within er worlds. Eventually might have found out making gold, and then German legend, have spirits as their slave, and beyond human ken. In India the open rooftop ribly convenient for "a man known to have ghosts were found lying one, there would be no neighbors. Snakes, too opportunely, and even returning the death as evident knowledge of these djinns to trace the cobra's victims. Snaps, for the doctor's son was exhausted before cured by death. - Philly Weekly.

Los Angeles Street. : Anaheim. FROM THE PRESIDENT OF BAYLOR UNIVERSITY. "Independence, Texas, Sept. 20, 1882. Gentlemen: Ayer's Hair Vigor Has been used in my household for three reasons: — 1st. To prevent falling out of the hair. 2d. To prevent too rapid change of color. 2d. As a dressing. It has given entire satisfaction in every instance. Yours respectfully, Wm. Carey Crane." AYER'S HAIR VIGOR is entirely free A hundred tapestries (two pieces make one dollar) was all that was needed for the preliminaries of disenchment at, and the cash forth-coming, the doctor at once took the genii in hand. Yet, do what he could in the matter of exorcism, the malady continued. It appears that at this stage a foreign demon of exceptional malignity had overpowered the ordinary one—"the common or garden" demon, so to speak—which had hitherto troubled the sufferer, and to rout the foreigner not less than twenty pounds worth of "ammonia" was needed. Having secured the money, the doctor disappeared. In fact he went on a pilgrimage on the private account of his own soul, leaving his client in Bombay under vows of inviolable secrecy. Eventually he returned, and, as bad luck would have it, ran up against his patient one day in the street. The patient naturally reproached him with having neglected his cure. But the doctor's pathetic remonstrance against what he called the ingratitude of his patient brought tears to the eyes of the bystanders. "Had he not been on a pilgrimage for nearly four months simply and solely for the cure of his patient's skin disease!" And the doctor in his virtuous grief wept himself. "And where," said he, "shall I ever look for gratitude in the world after this?" And he offered to give back the "ammonia". But meanwhile he asked the loan of a small silver coin. It was at once lent, and the doctor having anointed it and wrapped it up, gave it back, telling the owner to put it in the fire without opening it, and then come back and report the result. Without opening the packet the client took the coin home, duly put it in the fire as prescribed, and to his astonishment out dropped among the ashes a good gold piece. He lost no time in returning to the good doctor, who begged him to keep it, and explaining in an offhand way that he had lately learned the art of making gold from a certain devil with whom he happened to be intimate, wished him good-day. The client, however, was not going to see the last of such a valuable acquaintance so easily, and therefore forced himself again upon the doctor, and begged to be allowed to share the gold-making secret. Incredible as it may seem, the doctor, after some demur, consented, for, as he said, what is the use of being happy if others are not happy around you, too? But the process of initiation into the mystery of metals was rather elaborate. It commenced with the client buying some incense, and then some gold bangles, and throwing them into a hole in the field as a present to the master of the fairies, and went on with more incense of a costly kind, and more gold bangles being thrown into another hole in another field to propitiate the auits and cousins of the master of the fairies. Some finger-rings for an outside demon or two (probably only connections by marriage with the fairies) was the next step, and then some more incense, and a hundred rupees in cash for miscellaneous gratuities to devilkins and such small folk. Everything was now in train for a fair commencement and the client was directed with a minute elaboracy of centenorial to roast a number of copper coins in an earthen jar. The result was only partially successful, for of all the copper coins only one changed into gold. Nevertheless,the doctor was not in the least discouraged. He saw his way through the difficulty at once. Some musk, a pound or so in weight, and a good handful of gold ornaments were all that was needed, and having obtained them, he took his victim out to the sea-shore,and told him to sit there and see what he should see. The doctor began his incantations, and there emerged from behind a heap of stones a female spirit, "the genius of gold," who demanded what was wanted. "The position of this street of late," said a man who has been an operatist some months,greatly tilted contending faction reminds me strongly oi I was a witness to our steamboat. A planter Orleans for a good time had been marketed sawing on in the cabin were three professional able but he didn't know in boldly. Inside of about $1,000 and found he was playing with a chap,and didn't think a shooting match,sothe some sport for his mono. "I see I can't play pait said,"but there's one tite and I'll show you what left. Twenty-five dollars until I see my cotton leans,and the other $2 louder than the whistle boat."

The reporter something about "candation,"but before he she Sage turned a dound informed the inter out of politics."May first choice?"show his excitement wrench rights from the stair first choice.The count a strong man."And loaken door a tremendo completely off the hinged added with a wink,"you reporter understood an office and informed an columnus of his newspap was a "complete write script."

Everything was now in train for a fair commencement and the client was directed with a minute elaboracy of ceremonial to reast a number of copper coins in an earthen jar. The result was only partially successful, for all the copper coins only one changed into gold. Nevertheless, the doctor was not in the least discouraged. He saw his way through the difficulty at once. Some musk, a pound or so in weight, and a good handful of gold ornaments were all that was needed, and having obtained them, he took his victim out to the sea-shore, and told him to sit there and see what he should see. The doctor began his incantations, and there emerged from behind a heap of stones a female spirit, "the genius of gold," who demanded what was wanted. On being told that the gentleman wanted to know how to make gold, she agreed to show him, provided he gave her some more musk and some more gold bangles. Several interviews followed, with the same result—handsome presents of spices and jewels to the female spirit, but without effect; and the doctor at last lost all patience, and prepared for a deadly struggle with the Evil One. First of all, however, it was necessary to hide under a stone certain quantities of silk and embroidered cloth, gold thread and lace, to propitiate a few genii who might otherwise, in the conflict which was about to ensue, take the side of the ghosts against the man. This done, they returned to the seashore, where the "djinn" appeared in the form of a religious mendicant holding a lighted torch, and at once refused point-blank to impart the secret of the gold. Upon this the enraged doctor knocked him down with an incautation, yet not so rapidly but that the Evil One in falling had time to launch a spell at the doctor, which felled him, too. To be left with two dead men on the seabeach, and one of them a devil, was, it must be confessed, a compromising position; but the client fortunately remembered that the doctor had told him that if by any chance he should have the misfortune to be killed, his friend could restore him to life by sprinkling cardamoms on his legs. Trembling, he fled from the scene of the tragedy, and returning with the cardamoms, scattered them as directed, upon the doctor's legs, and lo he stood up, shook himself as one who awakened from a deep trance, and then suddenly catching sight of the motionless demon, hurried away, whispering to his client, as he passed him, to make his escape from the beach in the opposite direction, and on no account to look behind him. And so the story goes on—how the djinn came to life again, and how the doctor vanquished the king of the genii with more mask and bangles, and got the better of the wicked queen of the gnomes with more embroidery and rings, and how they saw more wonderful sights on the sea shore; all this was duly recounted in one of the Bombay police courts the other day. The end of all the necromancy, however, was that the doctor at last decamped, leaving his client with all his original skin disease, but no money, and bound by terrible vows to repeat certain incantations two hundred and odd times a day for two months and a half, and meanwhile not to breathe a word to any living soul about what had occurred. These facts, gravely narrated in a court of justice, sound incredible enough. But after recent disclosures in European spiritualist cases, it is not easy to decide at what limit we ought to fix the possibilities of human credulity. But in this Indian case there is this humorous and interesting aspect of the delusion, that the victim had no skeptics among his acquaintances. When he confided to a friend that he had been seeing djinns and talking to them by the sea shore, his confidants did not question his word. It was abundantly on record that djinns do converse with men, and that certain classes of them do live by the sea, so why should not this gentleman be speaking the truth? That he had given away many golden ornaments and many pounds' weight of costly spices was equally beyond doubt, and what could more properly have been the object of such expenditure than the propitiation of spirits? The whole lives of Asiatics are so interwoven with and surrounded by the unintelligible and the mysterious that nothing seems impossible; and if in the present case the victim's money had not given out, he might have continued to the end of his life on intimate terms with the creatures of other worlds. Eventually—who knows?—he might have found out the great secret of making gold, and then, like the hero of the German legend, have been claimed by the spirits as their slave, and whisked away beyond human ken. In India the open road-side wells are terribly convenient for "spirits" work, and if a man known to have had commerce with ghosts were found lying at the bottom of one, there would be no surprise among his neighbors. Snakes, too, often kill men very opportunely, and even the native constable, returning the death as "snake bite," has sufficient knowledge of the manners and customs of djinns to trace their handiwork in the cobra's victims. So it was as well, perhaps, for the doctor's dupe that his money was exhausted before his skin disease was cured by death. — Phil Robinson in Harper's Weekly. Not Even a Chance to Toot.

"The position of the outsider in Wall street of late," said a Southern gentleman, who has been an operator in Wall street for some months, greatly to his cost, "between the contending factions of bulls and bears reminds me strongly of a little episode that I was a witness to on a Mississippi River steamboat. A planter on his way to New Orleans for a good time after the cotton crop had been marketed saw a game of poker going on in the cabin one evening. There were three professional gamblers at the table, but he didn't know it, and he chipped in boldly. Inside of an hour he had lost about $1,000 and found out the kind of man he was playing with. He was a cool kind of a chap, and didn't think $1,000 was worth a shooting match, so he determined to have some sport for his money. "I see I can't play poker, gentlemen," he said, "but there's one thing that I can do, and I'll show you what it is. I've got $50 left. Twenty-five dollars will buy the liquor until I see my cotton factors in New Orleans, and the other $25 says that I can toot louder than the whistle of this here steamboat." "Done," said one of the gamblers, winking at his pals. They went up to the hurricane deck, and the planter stood in front of the wheelhouse. "Mr. Pilot," he said, "when I say 'go,' to the whistle as hard as you—please." The signal was given and the whistle shrieked loud enough to wake the dead. The planter's feeble 'toot, toot,' was completely drowned. There was a rooftop laughter and the gambler claimed the stake. "All right," said the planter. "take the money, old fellow; I'm satisfied. This is the first square deal that I've had tonight," and he turned on his heel and went down stairs. "I don't think the outsiders in Wall street though, have been able to get even a chance to toot. They've had to keep quiet and lose their money." Hale and Hearty. "Is Mr. Tilden in?" asked the interviewer. Hardly had he got the words out of his mouth before Mr. Tilden, in a full suit of chain armor, leaped from the second-floor landing with the remark, in a voice like thunder: "Here I am, young man; what's wanted!" The reporter managed to murmur something about "candidacy" and "convention," but before he could proceed further the Sage turned a double back somersault and informed the interviewer that he was out of politics. "May I ask who is your first choice?" asked the interviewer, finally. "My first choice?" snouted Mr. Tilden, in his excitement wrenching three or four uprights from the stair railing. "I have no first choice. The country, however, wants a strong man." And he struck the heavy oaken door a tremendous blow, knocking it completely off the hinges. "However, he added with a wink, 'you understand.' The reporter understood and he returned to the office and informed the world through the columns of his newspaper that Mr. Tilden was a "complete wreck." — Boston Transcript.

Tobacco is a universal insecticide. It kills ticks upon sheep; the troublesome scab insect; its related species which produces mange and itch; lice, fleas and all other insect parasites which infest and annoy animals; and root lice, leaf lice and all other pests which injure plants. Just at this season an application of fine tobacco dust or snuff may be used effectively to relieve calves and fowls from the vermin which keeps them poor and wretched, and a decoction of tobacco, applied to house or greenhouse plants with a brush, will destroy the pestiferous green fly and all other insects which infest them. The same liquid may also be poured around the roots of house plants that are infested with the small white worms which are the larvae of a small black fly that may be found in the pots and upon the soil in them.
