[From the Fortnightly Review.] The visitor to Chili naturally goes first all to Valparaiso, the chief port and commercial centre of the country. The city built on hills sloping down to the edge the sea, and every inch of flat ground tween hills and sea is covered with house. This is the business portion, and extends two or three miles along the shores of bay, whilst the residential portion is built the hills behind, with suburbs extending land. It is a pleasant place; and what p would not be attractive when blessed so heavenly a climate? Situated very near in the center of Chili, Valparaiso is adably adapted for being the chief port of west coast trade; from San Francisco in north to Cape Hern in the south it has rival; and here all the great business houses, mining and other companies, and firms that control the trade of the county in nitrate of soda, copper, guano, wheat and other exports, etc., are to be found. In nothing is the progress of Chili strikingly displayed than in the advance which has been made in the wine industry. Ten years ago hardly any native wine was drunk by the wealthier classes; now it is drunk by all classes. At present the wine production has not overtaken the consumption in Chili itself; but with the enormous extension of vineyard-planting through the country, prices of wine will certainly before long to a level that will enable profitable shipments abroad to be made. Last sums of money are now being invested in the wealthy landowners in vineyard-planting and wine-making apparatus. Frenchmen high salaries are being brought to the country from the claret-producing districts. NEW No. 8 WHEELER & WILSON, With Straight, Self-Setting Needle and Back-Feed. ABSOLUTEGY NEW!

At present the wine production has not overtaken the consumption in Chili itself; but with the enormous extension of vineyard-planting through the country, prices of wine will certainly before long to a level that will enable shipments abroad to be made. La suma of money are now being invested in the wealthy landowners in vineyard-planting and wine-making apparatus. Frenchmen high salaries are being brought to the country from the claret-producing districts of France, and no paints are being spared to make the business of wine-making an encore with whom I have conversed, we have studied the subject, are of opinion in another two years the export of wine may be expected to take place. The wine industry in 1881 in Chili produced the large stock of $2,961,900. By 1885 this amount will probably doubled. The fact that at the recent International Exhibition of Wines, Bordeaux, Chili obtained four gold, seven silver, and seven bronze medals in addition to five honorable meditions, speaks for the quality of her winery. It has been said that Chili is the county whose competition France will have no reckon with in the future. To describe Santiago is to describe its heart of Chili. It is to the Chilians who Paris is to the French, and those who acquired wealth in other parts of the republic invariably come to Santiago to spend The town is situated on the river Mapocho in the center of a large plain surrounded hills, with the giant peaks of the Andes the background to the east, magnificently visible in the clear atmosphere, though they may be a hundred miles or more distant. Town was founded about three and a centuria ago by Valdivia. It is laid out quadras (squares of about four acres), with the streets running uniformly at right angles to each other. There are several plaza-larges squares, the most striking being round which are grouped the cathedral, municipal and other buildings, all of which and Parisian appearance. Notwithstanding its age, the town does not possess an antiquity. The land around Santiago is entirely pendent on irrigation, and produces magnificent crops. Many successive crops are taken off the same land within the year. Much of the irrigated land around Santiago is played for the fattening of cattle, either home consumption or for export from Paraiso to the northern mineral district of the deserts of Atacama and Tarapaca. From Santiago one naturally proceeds down the great central valley to Angola, capital of the southern province of Arica cania, a district some three hundred sixty miles south of Santiago, inhabited Indians, who for three centuries held their own against the Spaniards, and were subdued within the last two or three yeas. The valley through which the railway lies between the coast range of hills alies three thousand to four thousand feet high and the giant Andes.

Bras, dnd'd. September 29, 1836. THIS PAPER NEW YORK. From Santiago one naturally procured down the great central valley to Angola, capital of the southern province of Alicania, a district some three hundred sixty miles south of Santiago, inhabited Indians, who for three centuries held their own against the Spaniards, and were subdued within the last two or three years. The valley through which the railway lies between the coast range of hills and three thousand to four thousand feet high and the giant Andean. The valley is fertile but comparatively treeless, and unattractive in appearance. At the stations passed one could not fail to be struck by contented appearance and fine physique the peasantry; broad shouldered, good tured looking fellows, whose one great thing is the Old-World love of drink. The Araucanians are, or were, divided into six tribes, and governed by chiefs or ciques, under whom are sub-chiefs; and, till lately, these tribes could place more thousand fighting men in the field. I set out to pay a visit to one of the chieftains and on arrival at his hut was informed that he was presiding at a meeting of chiefs some distance off. Thither we rode, and last come in sight of the assembly, where was held on an open space of grassland at the size of Hyde Park, studded with l trees. The president, who was the most powerful chief present, was mounted on a grey horse with silver stirrups and a silver bit, and in the centre of the group. Every now then a murmur of applause or disapprehension arose, but beyond this there was no word spoken by any one but the Indian woman addressing the assembly. He was counting how his hindred had been elastened in a neighboring State—how his car had been taken, his man separated from their wives, and children torn from their mothers (terrible retaliation for some bad raid). The speaker went on to say that had fled to Chili, and that if the Chilian diana would let him live there, with remnants of his people, they would be thankful. This Indian was still speaking when I left; he never failed or hesitated for a word. I was told that some of the Indians will speak for over four hours without interruption. One of our party, I say, made himself rather complacent his levity of manner and the loud tone voice in which he carried on conversation during this harangue. But the Indians did seem to be disturbed by it; they listened to CONOERNING CHILL. From the Fortnightly Review.] Refer to Chili naturally goes first of paranase, the chief port and commune of the country. The city is hills sloping down to the edge of and every inch of flat ground besides sea is covered with houses. The business portion, and extends for three miles along the shores of the at the residential portion is built on behind, with suburbs extending inside a pleasant place; and what place be attractive when blessed with only a climate? Situated very nearly center of Chili, Valparaiso is admirated for being the chief port of the trade; from San Francisco in the Cape Horn in the south it has no here all the great business houses, mining and other companies, and the control of the trade of the country of soda, copper, guano, wheat and ports, etc., are to be found. Being is the progress of Chili more displayed than in the advance been made in the wine industry. Ago hardly any native wine was the wealthier classes; now it is all classes. At present the wine has not overtaken the consumptil itself; but with the enormous of vineyard-planting throughout story, prices of wine will certainly fall to a level that will enable profitments abroad to be made. Large money are now being invested by ny landowners in vineyard-planting making apparatus. Frenchmen atties are being brought to the country the claret-producing districts of center addressing them with rapt attention, and taking no notice of incidents which would have irritated an English audience past endurance. I was particularly streak by the quiet dignity of manner and gentlemanly bearing of these Indians. A Chilian gentleman near me very justly observed, "Is it not curious how extremes meet? How much the bearing of these poor Indians resembles that of what we call the highest civilized society!" The faces of the Indians by whom we were surrounded impressed me favorably. Some few were fair, and must have had European blood in their veins. They were broad-chested, finely-built men, intelligent-looking, with well-formed heads, and I could not but be struck by one feature—the extraordinary brilliancy of their eyes, which gleamed like fire. They were all well mounted, the horses for the most part being adorned with silver bits and ornaments, the stirrups also in many cases being of silver. A piece of timber about twenty feet high, with a man's face carved on it, was imbedded in the ground in the center of the circle of Indians, and I understood it was their custom to swear by this. They believe in a God, Creator of the universe; in inferior gods of good and evil, war, etc.; in the immortality of the soul; in polygamy and in the purchase system as applied to matrimony. They possess many good qualities—are faithful, courageous, and have extraordinary memories. One of their characteristics is inordinate laziness. I never saw them out of their huts until eleven o'clock in the morning, and then they would saunter forth and stretch themselves on the ground, with the chin supported on the hands. In this position they talk together for hours. I have already mentioned their expertness in horsemanship. In riding it is their custom only to place the big toe in the WONDERS FOR GIRLS AND BOYS. Toys That Will Make a Fairyland of the Nursery Next Winter The opening of the fall season where in the toys. The old styles have been put aside to make way for new marvels of invention and skill. Heretofore most toys have been dumb and insane. But this season the human figures all walk and make gestures, and the animals utter their nonstomped sounds, use their limbs, and move no naturally that one imagines himself transported to the farmyard, the jungle, or the recesses of the forest. The birds sing from their perches or flit about the room. The vehicles are fitted automatically with electric or steam motors, and require no string or hands to propel them. An afternoon in a toy shop now means hours in a museum of moving, noise-making and quasi animate creatures. Some articles, classed as musical toys, are enumerated with an interrogation point. For instance, the first thing one is shown is a cigar case. A spring is touched and an interior music box plays the latest popular air, while a revolving cylinder turns inside out exposing an array of cigars. Next is a vase with a ballet dancer who keeps time to interior air, and finally kisses her hand to the audience and retires. A negro in a musical vase dances a clog. A ship in the next vase rides on the waves to a tune, while on a cliff near by a lighthouse flashes and a windmill spins. You are invited to be seated in a cane-bottomed chair, which responds with music as the cane is pressed. A beer glass evolves a tune when the amber-colored beverage is introduced. Decantors have airs to emit as well as liquids. The wax angel hanging from the ceiling plays a harp-like air when requested, or, if a Gabrieli vessel passing down the E THE ST. ELMO PARK Electricians are agreed that into everywhere, on the curvy air. They have divided kinds, via, negative and earth is charged with the form with the latter kind. Elmo kinds will attract the other thing charged like itself. When bodies are at rest there is a state of equilibrium; that are present in equal quantities are in motion this equilibrium and an interchange takes place stored. It is supposed that motion everywhere and always are but seldom aware of its manifests itself in many Lightning and the aurora bore the process of a restoration equilibrium on a grand scale. Another instance of this being about are the St. Elmo first to be lights roasting on the steeples, and other prominent in stormy weather, and are escape of the negative electricity earth into the atmosphere. Usually accompanied by a histories entirely without heat. It is related that when a Piper saw those lights at the masts of his ship one wild Mediterranean he became veered for its safety, believing that set on fire. He had the masts removed, but the light she wood as steadily as from in a short time he became cried was no danger. A few years ago the cap vessel passing down the E been made in the wine industry. A large amount of wine hardly any native wine was used in the wealthier classes; now it is all classics. At present the wine has not overtaken the consumption itself; but with the enormous variety of vineyard-planting throughout the city, prices of wine will certainly fall to a level that will enable profitable abroad to be made. Large money are now being invested by many landowners in vineyard-planting making apparatus. Frenchmen at sites are being brought to the countryside claret-producing districts and no paints are being spared to business of wine-making succeeded. Whom I have conversed, who asked the subject, are of opinion that two years the export of wine may end to take place. The wine industry in Chili produced the large total 900. By 1855 this amount will be doubled. The fact that at the regional Exhibition of Wines, at Chili obtained four gold, seven silver and seven bronze medals,ction to five honorable men-skins for the quality of her wines. When said that Chili is the country competition France will have most with in the future. Describe Santiago is to describe the Chili. It is to the Chilians what is the French, and those who have wealth in other parts of the republicly come to Santiago to spend it. It is situated on the river Mapocho, at a large peaks of the Andes in ground to the east, magnificently clear atmosphere, though they hundred miles or more distant. The town is founded about three and a half kilobyte by Valdivia. It is laid out in squares of about four acres), with a running uniformly at right angles either. There are several plazas or parks, the most striking being that which are grouped the cathedral, the other buildings, all of showy appearance. Notwithstanding the town does not possess an air of ardour around Santiago is entirely dependent on irrigation, and produces magnificent crops are taken some land within the year. Much of land around Santiago is emerald the fattening of cattle, either for assumption or for export from Valdivia to the northern mineral districts in areas of Atacama and Tarapaca. Santiago one naturally proceeds great central valley to Angel, the of the southern province of Aran-district some three hundred and south of Santiago, inhabited by who for three centuries held their last Spaniards, and were only within the last two or three years, by through which the railway runs even the coast range of hills about thousand to four thousand feet high, giant Andes.

In winter the ground up here is covered with snow for days at a time, and as we did not meet with the trees lower down than thirty-five hundred feet above the sea, it would seem that an elevated and exposed situation suits them best. All the large pines have the appearance of gigantic umbrellas, having lost their branches, with the exception of those at the very top. Considerable business competition has arisen late, and this mainly from the large number of Germans who have come to the country and are now settled here. Many of these, no doubt, are only tillers of the soil. A German colony was established some few years ago at Valdivia, in the south of Chili, and though the climate is by no means so good as that of some other parts of the country, the settlers have thriven immensely, and will one day assuredly exercise an important influence in the country. But it is not as tillers of the soil that German competition is of importance. Without counting several great English houses now represented by Germans, the Teuton flood has already made great inroads on the best positions in every branch of Chillian commerce, with the result, pro tanto, of displacing the English element. The effect of this will be felt even more in the future than at the present time. Although Germans, like Englishmen, will not pay more for goods because they happen to be manufactured by their own countrymen, still, the prices being equal, human nature comes in, and the German orders from the German. The German, moreover, seems to possess greater power of adapting themselves to the requirements of the country than the Englishman. He usually knows two languages, English and French, in addition to his own, and with characteristic industry he manages very quickly to acquire Spanish as well. His superiority to the Englishman in this matter must be freely admitted by the latter. A line of steamships lately started between Hamburg Chili is proving already highly successful, and paying large dividends to the shareholders. But however much the German may compete with the Englishman in the merchant's office, the English or Scotch mechanic is everywhere a thriving individual and highly considered.

Killed by Eating Sorghum Leaves BEALLSVILLE, Ohio, Oct. 3.—For the past ten days a strange and fatal disease has afflicted cattle in several portions of Belmont county. The disease was fatal in from one to two hours, and rarely affected any stock except cows. The animals had all the symptoms of mineral poisoning. Yesterday morning John R. Switzer, a dairyman, fed his twelve Jersey and Durham cows with bundles of dried sorghum blades. In an hour fifteen were dead. This led to an examination and experiment, and it was found that sorghum blades were the cause of the disease. The long drought has dried up all grass, and the corn fodder is not yet ready to feed. In this emergency many farmers prepared sorghum leaves for food for their milch cows. This explains why cows only were attacked. Switzer's loss is $1,200. The loss in the county is estimated at from $600 to $7,000. The honoumon of a Chicago couple was spent in the romantic and picturesque competition of camping out on the shores of Lahoe Michigan; but the plan seemed to have failed, for they finally emerged from the woods at opposite sides, and are to be legally separated by a divorce.

ELMO FIRES Electricians are agreed that electricity exists everywhere, on the earth as well as in the air. They have divided it into two kinds, viz., negative and positive. The earth is charged with the former, and the air with the latter kind. Either of these two kinds will attract the other, but repel anything charged like itself. When bodies are at rest the electricity is in a state of equilibrium; that is, both kinds are present in equal quantity. When they are in motion this equilibrium is disturbed, and an interchange takes place until it is restored. It is supposed that electricity is in motion everywhere and always, although we are but seldom aware of its presence. It manifests itself in many different ways. Lightning and the aurora borealis represent the process of a restoration of an electrical equilibrium on a grand scale. Another instance of this continual shifting about are the St. Elmo fires. They seem to be lights resting on the tops of masts, steeples, and other prominent points at night in stormy weather, and are caused by the escape of the negative electricity from the earth into the atmosphere. These lights are usually accompanied by a hissing noise, and are entirely without heat. It is related that when a French naval officer saw these lights at the tops of the masts of his ship one wild night in the Mediterranean, he became very much alarmed for its safety, believing that it would be set on fire. He had the iron tips of the masts removed, but the light streamed from the wood as steadily as from the iron, and in a short time he became convinced there was no danger. A few years ago the captain of an iron vessel passing down the English Channel SLUMBROUS COMELINESS. [New York correspondence S. P. Call.] Speaking of behavior, teachers of deportment are common enough in the presence of dancing mature, but their instinctive relation entirely, so far as I have known, to give waking moments of their pupils. But I have come across a trainer of sleepsers. She is the principal of one of New York's many "Washing" schools, where girls are presumed to get the final teaches of polish to fit them exquisitely for society. Having been informed that she included in her course of lectures one on the art of slumbering presentably, I begged her to tell me about it. "I dear ma, sir," she exclaimed, "I really couldn't allow a man to be present at a lecture to my girls." "That was beyond my wildest thoughts," I hastened to say. "The extent of my hope was that you would briefly inform me, in a general way, as to this peculiar portion of your curriculum." "I see no objection to that," she responded, "and it is simple enough. We try here to train our pupils that they will become thoroughly agreeable ladies. Did you ever consider that a third of your time is, or ought to be spent in sleep? And if you did, it is highly improbable that you have had a thought as to how you looked when sleeping. Well, it doesn't make so much difference in a man, perhaps, but a girl owes it to herself to be at all times as handsome as she can—irrespective of her natural expectation of becoming a wife. Therefore, I have introduced the study of slumbrous consciousness. The main fault to be corrected is that of sleeping with the mouth open. Very many girls do it. It is a habit carelessly acquired but often hard to eradicate. Dreadfully unfeminine enoris is a consequence. I teach my girls EVERYTHING.

He had the iron tips of the masts removed, but the light streamed from the wood as steadily as from the iron, and in a short time he became convinced there was no danger. A few years ago the captain of an iron vessel passing down the English Channel noticed bright pencils of light shooting out from his masts, yards and bowsprit. He climbed out on the latter, and cautiously approaching his hand to the flame, was surprised to feel no heat. The St. Klmo fire was also noticed in ancient times, Cresar making mention of the fire that rested on the tips of the soldiers' weapons. It is seen at rare intervals in the United States. The Signal Service office stationed on Pike's Peak, reports a very interesting exhibition which took place in June of last year. The telegraph wire running up the mountain was seen surrounded by a bright light, from which small flames were darting from point to point. An attempt to touch them was not very successful. The moment a finger was brought near them they disappeared entirely, or skipped to another place. The weather-vane on the station looked like a fiery arrow, and the rapidly revolving anemometer presented the appearance of a globe of fire. The officer thrust his hand into the blaze surrounding it when it appeared to be on fire, but he felt no heat. He then opened his hand, and from the tip of every finger, one or more pencils of light shot forth with a hissing noise. After lasting about fifteen minutes all the lights suddenly disappeared. In the Mediterranean, seamen gave those lights the name of St. Erasmus. It was in the course of time shortened to St. Ermo, and finally to its present one of St. Klmo. A Horrible Crime. Evansville, Oct. 10.—A horrible crime was brought to light at Troy, Indiana, by the finding of the headless body of a woman in a cistern on the farm of Peter Backer. The body was nude and the head was found in a thicket a hundred yards from the cistern. This was late Wednesday evening. When the body was taken from the water it was yet warm, and blood gushed from the trunk. It was the body of a portly woman weighing about 160 pounds, about 40 years old. A deep gash was cut below the shoulder blade, as if with an axe. There was a wound on the forehead, as if done with a blunt instrument. The body was recognized as that of Mrs. Helwell Hendershot, who resided on a farm fourteen miles back of Troy. A neighbor of Hendershot, while in Tell City yesterday, saw the murdered woman's husband and also noticed a valise marked T. Hendershot. While the steamer Proilard was at Troy last night, a search warrant was procured, the valise was opened and found to contain the clothing of the vic- Devastation.

It is a habit carolically acquired but often hard to eradicate. Dreadfully unfeminine smoring is a consequence. I teach my girls to close their lips snugly before dropping salep, and to avoid throwing their heads too far back on the pillow, so that their mouths won't fall open as soon as the muscles are relaxed. I conjure them, too, to prepare a toilet for the bed as careful, though less elaborate, than that for the day. Their night clothes should be neat, well-fitting, and adapted to their individuality. They should regard a night-cap with horror. Their hair should not be unbecomingly done up in a tight knot, but adjusted with a view to both comfort and presentability. Their poses on the couch should no more be awkward than their waking hours, and I instruct them to so habituate themselves to gracefulness in bed that they will become instinctive.

"You are mistaken if you take that advertisement as indicating that the girl wishes to put herself on display for immodest purposes. She is in quest of a husband. There is no place on earth where a pretty girl can so surely get a good matrimonial offer as at an industrial fair. The reasons are obvious. She is incidentally and properly on effective exhibition before thousands of men daily. She can, if deft and ladylike, impress every observer with her value for both use and ornament. I suppose that twenty marriages are the immediate result of this fair every year. That girl knows what she is about." Devastation.

While the steamer Proillard was at Troy last night, a search warrant was procured, the valise was opened and found to contain the clothing of the victim covered with blood. Warrants were made out for Helwell Hendershot, the husband, and F. H. and William Hendershot, sons of the old man. His son William was arrested and brought to Troy last night. The oldest son refused to come and defied arrest. An increased poison was sent after him and he was brought to Troy this morning and placed in jail. He acknowledges committing the crime himself, and says that his father and brother had nothing to do with it. The old man's testimony was to throw the weight of the crime upon himself and the older son. The murder of Mrs. Hendershot arose from her refusal to sign away a farm to which she had a deed, in fee simple, which the father and son wanted to dispose of. Several hundred people were present at the trial, and about now an effort was made to seize the criminals and mote out summary vengeance on them, but the officers succeeded in averting the attack. The result of the preliminary trial released William, and the other brother and father were remanded to jail. At 7 o'clock a mob at Troy took the oldest son out of jail and hung him to a beam in the barn where the crime was committed. He made a confession that his father shot his mother and that he cut her head off with an axe. A Polite Qualification He was polite, but difficult, and had got entangled in conversation with a couple of young ladies, and was struggling along the best he could. They were discussing the merits of different schemes. "Y-yes," he said, "Mrs. B—— is certainly a very clever person, but I—I think she is one of the乖贼 women I ever saw." That is," he added politely, under the vagueness that some qualification should be introduced here, "I—I—own of course, present company always example." Devastation This year's vintages in France are likely to be of quite exceptional excellence. All good vintage, however, does not unfortunately mean what it once did, the ravages of phylloxera during the past sixteen years having so largely diminished the number of the vines. A few figures will show what havoc has been made by this source in French vineyards. Fourteen years ago there were two milson four hundred thousand hectares of vineyards, and now there are not more than one million hectares under cultivation. The production has fallen within the same period from sixty-two millions of hectolitres to thirty millions of hectolitres. Not only has exportation been immensely reduced, but importation has had to be resorted to for the supply of this country. Within only the last four years wines have been brought into the country from Spain, Italy, and Greece to the amount of one milliard francs. Of the million and a half hectares devastated, not more than twenty thousand hectares have yet been replanted which is not to be wondered at, considering that it costs as much to replant as the soil itself is worth. Water Matters The Standard reports the following proceedings at the annual meeting of the S. A. V. L Co.: The Secretary read report showing the company to be in debt $12,923.43. Motion to amend by-laws by inserting "He may wish to irrigate" to the clause that requires every subscriber to the stock to purchase a share for each new owned. Motion lost. Twelve hours decided to be a day for using water in winter. An attempt was made to amend the by-laws to prevent any more company ditches from being made. The motion received 5,224 eyes and 424 men, but lacked a twelfth vote and was lost. A sense of the meeting was taken by personal vote upon the motion: Orange was almost unanimous in favor of it, leaving Tuatia and Santa Ana looking very luscious, grish their promises in their pockets. The amounts of the late City Treasurer of Newark, N. J., who died recently, are $70,000 short. 48 Needles Taken From a Woman Lockport, Oct. 2.-Mrs. Sooley living in the town of Sardinia, between the forces of the Cattaraugus and the foot of Lord Hill, some time ago complained of pain in her arm. Dr. George N. Kingman of Sardinia discovered that there were needles in the muscles. He made a sore, applied a pontice, and a few days afterward took out several needles. This he has repeated. The other arm was similarly affected and was treated with like results. At last accounts he had taken from the woman's arms forty-six needles or pieces. All were broken, some having five points and others broken at both ends, resembling pieces of wire. The case is mysterious. The woman says she be ignorant of how or when the needles were introduced into her system. Planty of Four-Lenved Glaven.
