Hygienic Rules.?Never eat when much fatigued ; wait until rested. Never trAn ZJVr\/v>f fa A?rvnr*A in c?y y vu va^vv w iu any severe mental or physical exercise. ' m Never eat while in a passion, or when under a great mental excitement, depressing or elevatiog. Never eat just before taxing a bath of any kind, or just n before re iring at night. Never eat be- 0 " ft* een regular meals. mm. . r Mantre.-H. H. Porter, of Mississippi, 0 states that when only a small quantity of highly coneentrated manure is avail- c able tne most economical way of using it h is to steep it a few days in just enough wat^i* to work it into such a consistency u that the greatest possible quantity wiil s] stick, and roll the seeds in it and plant mhila -u-af. In -i.ho .South, an acre uf Y * cotton thus treated will be improved in a ^he yield aoout as much as the same treated, with commercial fertilizers in the ordinary way. Training a Hlifer to Milk.?Cows a usually become addicted to kicking when heifers, from being milked by abusive M milkers. I have never seen an old cow a become a kicker unless abused. Instead h 'of cows being averse to being milked t] when giving a large quantity, I have . found it the reverse. When pasturage 1 is good, and cows come home at night ^ with udders distended with milk, they w seem grateful to have it removed. Milk- t< ins a lieifer for the first time requires patience^ for they will almost inevitably ^ lack. In such a ease put a broad strap t< around her body, just in front of the udder, and buckle it up moderately tight. a ftcdae sdonns she gets quiet (for she may aanee around a little at first), take your * % pail, sit down and go to milking, for she c is as helpless as a kitten. Do not at- t< tempt to use a rope instead of a strap, r, for it will not answer. This is a much better method than tying the legs, etc., as it does not hurt the annimal in the least. A few applications of the strap, p with plenty of patience and kindness, will c cure the most obstinate case. -T.vj'5 a s Scallawag Stock.?It is not at all j uncommon to hear a farmer declare that . there is no profit in keeping fine cattle ; 15 that it would not pay him to purchase a t( gjoodadibrti-hipru bull at say $500 where- c; witn 10 Improve his herd. Let us s?e p how this thing figures np. He raises ten steers of what the drover denominates the scallawng sort, and sells them at tl three or four years old, or possibly he n feeds them six years, when they realize n four cents per pound on 800 pounds weight which is equal to 332 per head or 1 $320. It is safe to say that the cost of b these cattle will not be less than the a price received, so that there will be no ^ profit to the leeder, if there is no loss, Another farmer raises ten grade short- a horn steers, which at three years old are sold at eight cents a pound, and weigh o 1,600 pounds. Their money value is p . #tjl,280?. .They may have gost $640 to ^ . ?.*feed, which is double the cost of the sctdlawags, and then there is a profit of ^ 8g40. This will represent a small part w only of the gain made by the use of a ^ thoroughbred bull; for at least he may bo expected to sire 25 calves per annum s( duriug six or seven years, and his ser- S vicrtft will thus bo fmmd worth Jit ativ <t rate not less than S3,000 to $4,000 on {} tlwtf fcasis. Here is nothing counted to his credit but the simple profit on beef a alone, and this is based on the tangible P and stable foundation of a market report, b There is naught extenuated and naught p set down in hopes which may or may not ^ be realized. Some farmers have said that this result is hopeless for them, ei that they can not expect to gain one tl ceut per pottnd extra from a drover for d " "-T* better quality of stock. It is true that 0, there are such farmers, and that they say th?s, but it is strange if this is not a prejudice boru of a want of energy and ? business tact. How can beef differ in this respect from wool or pork, butter . or cheese, or corn or wheat, all of which 11 bring prices exactly in a ratio with their d several qualities Drovers who come a across such men will "fool them to the . top of their bent," undoubtedly, and will persuade them that good stock has sl t no more value than poor, if possible ; tl but it is hard to believe that in this age a of newspapers such a farmer couF be found. "It is naught, it is naught, aaith the buyer, but when he has gone " his way, then he boasteth and drovers p are often such buyers, but it is a farm- v er's own fault if such a bnver ever had a chance to boast over a bargain of this sort made with him. u t] Fruits.?A walk through our market b shows at a glance how prolific our fruit 1 crop is. For the last ten years peaches a have not been so plentiful or of such fine tl quality. The plumbs also are of the h finest flavor, and will compare with any a in the world. Our pears from Jersey t and onr own State equal any grown in c France. Grapes are in abundance, and t will be more plentiful in a few weeks, s A man who has sold grapes for years o says that he shipped S~5 worth of grapes 1 to a dealer in the southern part of New Jersey, not twenty five miles from where they were grown. The explanation of this anomaly is that the grape crop is v bought up by speculators in the winter, c and that consequently sometimes the s ' fhiti can be bought in this city twenty j n per cent, cheaper than where it is grown. ^ Watermelons and muskmelons are a drug c in the market.?X Y. Paper. v American Farmers. ? The Artisan -] says: \v e nazara tne assertion tnat no ], class of equal average means live so c well as American farmers. One of these possessing a farm and buildings worth say ten thousand dollars, will gather about him and enjoy more real comfort than could bo obtained from the income of a hundred thousand dollars in New York. He may live in a more commodious dwelling than a metropolitan citizen having ten thousand dollars annual income. He may have his carriage and horses. His table may be supplied with everything fresh in its season. His labor is less wearing than the toil of ' Counting-rooms and offices, and he has more leisure. * I On the Porch at Put-in-Bay. A correspondent at Put-in-Bay writes: 5ut to return to the long front porch, s a great many do in real life after the tops or the regular evening dances, that * just, as pleasant and don't cost anyhing. A great amount of flirting is lone. If a man never had any predis>osition to be "spoony" he certainly rould have a bad attack after a short ojourn in this atmosphere. Although he man who keeps the fancy store says his is "a bad season for engagements," till there are and have been many a deslerate case here this year. As I have ratched I have thought how well. the; ines of Praed fill the picture : " Oar love wag like most other loves? A little glow, a little shiver, A roe >rid and a pair of gloves, And ' Fly not yet' upon the river; Some jealousy of some one's hoir, Some hopes of dying broken hearted, A miniature, a lock of hair. The usual vows?and then we parted." An amusing case of this kind happneed iot long ago. A lawyer who had his ffice in the Masonic Temple, had a fbA crrmnd floor, with a window n the porth. Soon after retiring, iiairs were moved on the porth outside is window, and directly he heard voices -low, but earnest voices?principally a lan's voice, and as he warmed to his abject it grew so loud that our friend as not only kept awake but could not void hearing what was said. ~ ?The young man was pouring forth the lie of his admiration?his ardeDt love, s steadfast as the polar star, as fixed as damaut. She seemed to like it very -ell, but didn't say yea or nay. So the dorer went on to the same train?he appy that she would listen, she happy bathe would speak. This continued rom twelve till two in the wee hours^ rhen the fair one made a move. The 'retched si>oon begged that she would 3II him his fate then and there, but she rould not. At last she said, UI will sll you in the morning." Imagine their horror and surprise as wild cry came from the sleepless lawer's room: "For God's sake don'fr ame back before ten ! Come back at en, and I will be be here to hear the est." Suggestive Idiots.?The earnest and ersevering works' of those who have harge of the children in some of our intitutes for idiots is not only wonderful a its results, but it is suggestive. Here 1 a child six or seven years old, unable o walk, stand, talk, or taste, and hardly apable of noticing what happens around er. The superintendent of an institu iou for the instruction of idiots takes iiis girl, and spends days and weeks and lontlis teaching her to stand in a corer. After five months constant and aily labor he is rejoiced to see that she as moved, of her own accord, one foot, half and an inch forward! Therefore iiis patient teacher announces triumplintlv that the child may be cured. And be is cured, for in time she became one f the best dancers in the institution j iesides this, her mind and body imroves satisfactorily in other respects, fow if men and women can be found ho will thus labor and toil for years, ith unremitting attention and care and fiicitude, to awaken tho dormant eneries of poor little idiots, who at first ive about as much encouragement to leir teachers as might be expected from lot of clams or oysters, and such surrising and happy results are thereby rought about, what might not u' elected if our intelligent and sane iilren' were treated with something of that irnest, thoughtful, untiring care which aese poor idiots receive? We will not iscnss the subject, but merely throw ut the suggestion. What Smokers go Through, and Thy.?There is a youth before us smokig a cigar with keen enjoyment. Howid he acquire the habit? Was he always smoker? Assuredly not. He associaid with friends who indulged in the uperfluous habit, and was induced by iiern to follow their example; nor did be fter a few tentative efforts overcome the ifliciilties which the task involves. He ad to persevere dilhgently step by step; romptly desisting the moment he was arned of a revolutionary tendency rithin his stomach. Pleasure there is one during the period of initiation, and lie amount derived when perfection has een attained is frequently questionable, .'o some the difficultly ? to be overcome re insuperable. We have not illustrated be foregoing to exemplify the habit as ieing a pernicious one. We indulge in weed occasionally and have no objec ion to smoking when not carried to exess. We sinmly intended to point out liat whatever disagreeable impediments tood in the way, the example, desirable f imitation or the contrary, would be ollowed. ? Tinsley's Magazine. Strict Letter of the Law.?A young roman recently appeared before the ourt at Lieges, with a demaud for a eparation or divorce from her husband, in the ground that her husband had lired a suite of apartments which she ould not occupy. She was informed hat this simple disregard of her wishes ras not sufficient ground for a divorce. l he law demanded that she should folow her husband. " What! the law ompels me to follow my husband ?'' 'Certainly." "We shall see, then.'' ^he lady disappeared, and at once atached herself to her husband, and folowed him every step that he took for wo day8. This was sufficient to attract he whole city, for the poor husband xnild no more escape her than he could lis shadow. Finally the police interered, and she was arrested for causing he gathering of a crowd in the streets.

A Queenly Matchmaker. ? When Edward the Fourth was on the throne of England, he was so desirious to secure every letter or dispatch written by Margaret of Anjou, that heroic wife of an unheroic king, that the penalty of death was awarded against any 'persoD who, receiving a letter, or being in possession of a letter from Queen Margaret, delayed in surrendering the same to the government. One would suppose that such a penalty would lead every individual holding such documents, if not to surrender at least to destroy them. But human nature is perverse ; also bold, courageous, defiant. Many of Margaret's correspondents hid away the letters she had written to them ; some of these have lately been published by the Camden Society. The volume is one of the most interesting of the series published by that society, and the letters themselves are credible to the writer. They show her less as a fiercely struggling, deeply sorrowing, terribly avenging queen, than as a sympathising woman, not so busy in her own affairs as to lack time for.being interested in the afiairs of others. She is ever ready to say a good word for a worthy man seeking advancement, and her heart responds to appeals from young maidens with whom the course of true love does not run smooth. For them, Queen Margaret writes with affectionate urgercv to that sort of sire who is apt to say of a suitor to his daughter, who is unwelcome to himself, " I can't imagine what the girls can see in such a fellow, to like him!" To such stern fathers .Margaret of Anjou writes like a wise and affectionate woman. She may be called a " matchmaker," for she seems to have gone to the work of_ coupling with great alacrity, but we are sure that many a young couple, in those turbulent times, owed to her happiness and a harmony in their married life which poor Margaret never enjoyed in her own. Temple. Bar. The Little Girl and thk Bears.? It is dangerous to be a little girl in some parts of the country, even now : At New Sweden, Aroostook. Co., Mp>.: a little girl, fourteen years old, wei.t for a pail of water for her father, who was at work in the woods. After she had filled her pail and was returning, she met a bear and three nnLc in tVio mtli Thp Wilis nnnrrtflplipH her as if in play. She was afraid, and, swinging her pail to keep them oft, backed and ran into the woods, they followed. She tried to get away from them, hut they liked her company so well that they followed her for several hours. She called to her father, and he heard her and went for her, but ?oon her voice could not be heard, and he was unable to find her. The darkness of the night came on without discovering bis child. It was 3 o'clock p. m., when she went tor the water. The next morning a large company turned out, and, after a long search, they found her several miles from home. She had carried her pail of water all this time, and her hand was bleeding trom the effects of holding to her pail. V The Nathan Case.?Notwithstanding the moral certainty expiessed by the police of New York of Forrester's guilt, the prosecution of that gentleman has Koon flicnrmtinnpd as the technicalities of its evidence will not bear the test of cross-examination. So ends the dozenth fiasco in this famous case. Forrester himselt, it appears, is in a fair way to escape his thirteen veer's imprisonment in Illinois owing to some reported flaw in the requisition from the Government of that State. '.cyjoli tv.- r-. The H&than Murder. The murder of Nathan, that mystery of horror and darkness, which more than two years ago thrilled the nerves of humanity with a terror more dreadful than ^ that inspired by any former deed in the ^ annals of crime, has recently been raised like some ill omened ghost from the shadows of oblivion in which it was almost lost to public view, and is once more the ^ subject of tragical conjectures among all ^ classes of people. The story of the bloody butchery of the ^ wealthy Jewish banker is vividly imprint- ^ ed on almost every mind, and its impression can scarcely be dissipated until at ^ length the assassin shall be brought to justice and its strange mystery explained, aS if that may ever be. On the morning of the 29th of July, 1870, Benjamin Nathan ^ was fouly murdered near his bed, being found derobe and cruelly battered on the 07 head and face until his venerable features ^ were scarcely recognizably to his own sons. At half past six o'clock the cry of ^ murder was raised at the door of hi3 ^ princely mansion in Twenty-third street, and young Washington Nathan rushed ^ upon the sidewalk in his night dress, gi] frantic with terror. He had come home at half past twelve, and gone to his couch m to sleep. At the hour of the alarm he ^ had arisen and gone to his father's room pj to awake him, when he entered upon a aj scene of horror which no pan haa yet been ar able to picture. The gray haired banker ra lay stretched upon the floor, between his 0j library and private drawing room, covered with clotted gore from head to foot, but cold and stiff, with the rich carpet m under him saturated with the red torrent ^ of his life blood, which had spattered eveiy piece of furniture and every wall W) and door of the room. There were evidences of a most fearful struggle, ^id it ^ seemed that the first blow must have been ^ struck by the desperate murderer while ra his victim was quietly sitting at his desk or in the library. The desk was covered jn with streaks and miniature pools of blood ^ir and on the floor beneath the chair, which pr had been overturned in the terrible con- su flict that ensued, was a mass of gore. ba Then there were traces of blood and con- jj, flict from the desk to the door of the th drawing room, near which the body was m( found, and here the dreadful deed was a { finished; the murderer then burst open the safe, took out papers and valuables and escaped. All he left behind him that could throw any light upon the man- ar' ner in which the deed was done was a heavy iron " dog"?the tool of a ship 1 carpenter?which was found in the vestibale of the mansion, covered with blood. 'Ul hair and pieces of flesh. During that ^ night of crime, not a sound of danger was heard by the inmates of that fated house, m' and all seemed to repose in peace and perfect quietude. The servant who slept ca in the room next to that occupied by the 0 1 banker was ignorant of the tragedy until aroused by the cries of the son of his c'? master. The policeman who had passed an the house shortly after one o'clock, had to then tried the door and found it locked 1111 T1 and secure. He had done the same at . half past four and with the same result. A six o'clock, when Washington Nathan came down stairs to give the alarm of ^ie murder the door was open. The deed ^ must have been done between the hours ot half past four and half past six in the t|1< morning, when slumbers areheavieft and Slt life before arousing grows motionless and quiet as death. In the adjoining house ro' on Fifth Avenue Dr. Peckham and his S^1 wife, about the same hour heard through mi the thick walls a heavy sound repeated several times, and this is supposed to have wr wc, been occasioned by the blows inflicted by ^ the murderer on his helpless victim. *A Wholesome Medicike.?Are you m an trouble ?

The uselessness of the torpedo bot hich was launched at the Navy Yard i rooklyn, was fully demonstrated by a scident which, had it not been in goo me discovered, wonld have resulted i le death by suffocation of thre lechanies. It appears that, after th oard of officers who had been exper tenting with the torpedo had adjourne >r the day, and while the men on th sat were a< ^ending to some work in th old, she suddenly sank and went to th ottora. It fortunately happened tha ie hatch was closed, and that the vess< as not filled with water.

The yar iver was summoned, and he immediate! jscended to the bottom, to ascertai ie state of affairs. It was discovers lat the torpedo was powerless to raisi self to the surface, and fears were for me entertained that the men would bi iffocated, as the vessel lay partly em idded in the mud.

It was fnlb :pected that the experiments on th< rpedo had resulted fatally, but afte 'O hours' hard work the vessel wa ised, and, to the great joy of ever te, the men were found alive, thougl a terrible state of fear.

It is 0 nearly half a century since this remarkable remedy was J introduced to the public, and yet the immediate and c 1 enviable reputation which it gained by ite worderful cures of coughs, colds, whooping cough, sore throat, in- _ . fluenza. consumption, and all bronchial complaints, is to this dav fully sustained.?Com. 1 The BROWNS and BLACKS produced by that ster- 0 P ling preparation, Cristadoro's Excelsior Hair Dye, cannot be excelled by Nature ; its tints challenge oompari8 son with Nature s most favored productions, and defy j? detection.?Own. 2 r I s FLAGG'8 INSTANT RELIEF.-Warranted to re- L lieve all Rhenmatic Afflictions, Sprains, Neuralgia, etc. - The besl, the mrest, and the quickest remedy for all N ' Bowel Complaints.

The heavy evening A ' dews and morning vapors and the great disparity in e ^ temperature between the night and day. give rise to ^ } many painful disturbances of th? bowels, such as colic, ? . cholera morbus, diarrhea and dysentery. The digestive V organs are also unfavorably affected by the change of season, and dyspeptics generally suffer most severely _ during the fall. Derangement* of the liver are likewise M ; common, and miasmatic fevers prevail in newly-settled districts and low-lying and marshy localities. These an- S pleasant contingencies of the season are not, however, unavoidable. By strengthening, toning and regulating ' the system with Hostetter's Stomach Bitters even the ^ ? most delicate may escape them. At the expiration of p summer all the bodily powers are in a somewhat ex- P hlasted state. They require the wholesome stimulation ' which this genial vegetable invigorant supplies. Under i | its renovating influence the nervous energy which the " wilting heat of July and August had kept in abeyauce ^ ' or partially extinguished, crops oqt afresh ; the flaccid ? t muscles recover their elasticity ; the appetite takes a | . sharper edge; the processes of digestion and assimilation become more rapid and perfect; the spirits rise, T and the whole organization acquires its maximum of ^ activity and resistant power. Even persons of compar"" atively feeble constitutions, when thus fortified against ' ) the perils of the season, will have little cause to fear a ? j visitation from any of the disorders to which we have $ referred. As a protection against miasmatic fevers and , all epidemics engendered by malaria, Hostetter's Bitters r may be justly pronounced not only unrivalled but unap' preached. Look well to the label and trade mark, as - there are many counterfeits and imitations in the market. ' TO CONSUMPTIVES.
