Farm, Garten and Household. Hot Cholera and the Kidney Worm. | I have noticed frequent reference to kidney worm and its cure in the Journal, an well as hog cholera and its cure1 and prevention. Do the eminent breedera who advertise in the Journal ever have either among their stock ? If they do not, how do they manage their hogs ao as to prevent it ? Do any of them keep a continuous supply of salt and ashes before their hogs ? If they do, with what result ? I write this, hoping it may draw out some of the gentlemen who carried on such an interesting discussion in the { Journal a short time since. I had only been farming three years last January, when I bought twenty* two hogs, ana lost either ten or twelve . (I have forgotten which) in a short time with wbat was called bog cboiera; since which time I have had remarkable success. having had no disease of any sort among them. I have killed for mv own use and sold, np to last fall, 171, and have abont 100 that I shall feed this fall. For a 250 acre'farm, the number I have had and now have, 1 should think, would be a fair test; but farmers who have raised hogs for forty years do net endorse my plan of a continuous supply of salt, about tbree parts, and one part ashes, because it pukes them when they have not had it for a time, and eat too muoh when they get it. To Srevent this I put in a little slack lime te drat time, and only once, to prevent them from taking too much. I nought kegs Of copperas, sulphur, turpentine (coal oil on hand), ana Sander s Hog Cholera Remedy all of which 1 have on hand without using, from having read (before I commenced) an extract .taken from some high medical authority on the " saline properties of the blood," and the absolute necessity of furnishing an adequate supply to all domestic animals ; and since that time I have kept a supply of salt and ashes before my horses, cattle, hogs, and sheep, with the best results. If you fail to elicit from breeders corroborative testimony, could yott not get some eminent physician to write you an article on the valine properties of the blood, which Would probably embody the same idea of the extract I saw, which determined my plan of keeping it before the stock. fttrni. A writer in the Dutchess Farmer, among other things said concerning the advantages of good barns, remarks that j he believes it is safe to sey that money ! invested in well-constructed barns pays from 20 to 50 pet cent, every year, and that all will agree to the statement when we take into consideration the full advantages.

By providing suitable barns and stables, one can avoid all these losses, cares and troubles, and feel confident security as every load of hay is committed to their keeping, and every animal is thriving under their kind prot-Oction, during ths cold winter. Chicken Broth. This is generally made for invalids, | for whom beef broth is too rich; although chicken broth can be made rich also by putting several old chickens in the kettle with a comparatively small amount of water. Process: To make an ordinary chicken broth, neither rich nor weak, put in the soup kettle an old chicken, the bones of which you crack in several places, or half a chicken, with about a quart of water to a pennd of meat; add a little salt, and set on a good fire. When commencing to boil push the kettle back, add a gill of cold water, and skim off the scum that gathers on the surface. "When no more scum oomes up, add a carrot, a stiok of celery, and two leeks : simmer for two hours, strain, an<J use.

A special despatch from London announces the death of the celebrated painter, Sir Edwin Landseer, at the age of seventy-one years. Sir Edwin was the third and youngest son of the lute John Landseer, A. R. A. and F. S. A., born in London in 1802. He excelled in painting animals whilo a boy, and became a Btudent of the Royal Academy in 1816. He began to exhibit his pictures when but little over fourteen years of age, und his earliest productions attracted attention and gave great prom ise of future excellence. The majority of his compositions have become popular engravings. His bronze figure of the "Stag at Bay" was in the Royal Academy Exhibition of 1866, and the four lions iu bronze for the base of the Nelson column, Trafalgar square,- for which he received the commission from the British government in 1859, were placed on the pedestals and uncovered January 81, 1867. He became an associate of the Royal Academy in 1827; became a Royal Academican in 1830. He was knighted by the Queen of Great Britain in 1850. As a member of the Athenreum Club he was greatly sought after, being of a cheerful and communicative disposition. T - M T jucssohs oi juue. Of the lessons that humanity has to learn, the hardest is to learn to wait. Not to wait with folded hands that claim life's prizes without previous efforts, but have struggled and crowded the slow years with trial, see no result as efforts seem to . warrant*?nay, perhaps, disaster instead. To 6tand firm at such a crisis of existence, to preserve one's self-poise and self-respect, not to lose, hold or relax effort, this is greatness, whether achieved by man or woman?whether the eye of the world notes it, or it ip recorded in the book, which the light of eternity shall alone make clear to vision. Those who stand on the high places of the earth understand not what necessity, what suffering means. They know not what it is to a noble mind to be obliged, like the worms, to crawl upon the earth for nourishment, because it has not the . strength to endure famine. Life moves around them with so much grace,splendor and beauty; they drink life's sweetest wine, and dance to a charming intoxiqation. They find nothing within them which can enable them to understand the real suffering of. the poor ; they love only themselves, and look at mankind only in their own narrow circle. I Exciting: Scene in a Menagerie* A terrible scene took place in Zanders' Menagerie, at Whitby, in England, on Sept. i<k 'there were several hundred people in the show when heart-, rending cries, as from one in mortal agony, went through the air. A panic ensued. "The people, terribly excited, ran en masse to the narrow outlet, and endeavored to escape by other means. A cry was raised outside that (me of j the beasts had burst through the bars of its oage, and the e&citemeht Atiidhg the crowd without W4s Scarcely less intense than that within. In the ru$h to the door many people, particularly the weaker sex, were injured, and the con* fusion was increased fare the circumstance of a couple of camels blocking up the doorway. Meanwhile the cries continued, and it was discovered that a poor boy named Langley was the victim of the viciousness of a big tiger, placed alongside another ,Ue*t tb tlie cage containing the lioh that worried to death pbot McCarthy, the lion-tamer, at Bolton last year. The tiger was infuriated, and was making strenuous ef-1 forts to draw the lad through the bars of the cage. The bett5t prowled fright-; fully* and what with the pitiful cries of j the boy, the shouts of the men, and the i screams of half-fainting women, the j scene was one of the most terrible de-! 8criptiou. Borne men ran for hot irons* | while others beat the beast with their : sticks and umbrellas, and did all they could to draw the brute from its helpless vieMm TTltimatelv. after a severe mauliog, the animal relinquished its | prey, and the boy, helpless and faint j through loss of blood from the injuries | he had received, was borne away through the crowd. His wounds, upon being dressed, appeared to be of a serious nature, though they are not likely to prove fatal. The brute seems to have Caught its victim just below the : elbow, and tore a deep lump of flesh right down the fotfeafm to "the wrist. There in also a deep gash in the palm of the left hand, from which the hemor- j rhage is great. The patient lien in great pain, and it is feared that ne will not recover the perfect use of his arm. One of the keepers has also been se- j terelv injured. He was struck by one : of the elephants, and his ribs were smashed in. The man was taken to the I workhouse in a helpless condition. Something about Beef. Two kinds of fluid are used besides broth, says Pierre Blot, to make soups ?milk and wafer f but, although gObd, they are light soUpU in comparison with those made with broth. Butter is added when water is used, Bones alone make a gelatinous broth, but not as nutritions as when used with meat. A pound of meat and bones makes a pint and a half of good broth ; two pounds make a quart of rich broth. The more meat used With a certain amount of water, the richer the broth. The pieces of beef generally used to make broth are the leg, the shin, the neck, the round, and the chuck.; other Sieoes are just as good, but they are e&rer, and do not make more or better broth. Besides beef, the trimmings of Vv/v/vf t%*\A trool r\t piCUCD U1 UCCl iiuu IV(IJ| vr* vu*vhvuu( . turkeys, and Guinea-birds, are excellent to make brotb.5 e!so the bones and what has beiih left of the same pieces after having been served as roasted pieces, and after having cracked the bones with a chopper. Any kind of meat or bones used to make broth must be fresh ; the piece of meat or bird, the bones of which are used for broth, must have been roasted when very fresh. The least taint spoils the broth. Many epicures use every kind of^game, biped , or quadruped, with beef to make broth. | either raw or the boneBNof such after! havihg been served as roast pieces, especially such gable as partridges and like birds) rabbits, hares, etc.; such broth has a gamy taste. Some go further ; when they have made rich beef broth, they boil game in it to make it richer, and then make consomme with it. It is then real asBenCe of meat, and very rich food. The best utensil for making broth is an earthen pot; next is a copper or iron digester Or kettle, well lined with tin. An iron pan lined with porcelain is excellent if the porcelain is not cracked. Any kind of fire is good as long as it is not too sharp, and will keep the pot simmering; it does not matter whether it is on a stove or range, in a grate or furnace, or whether it is a hard coal, charooal, or wood fire. It is not necessary to be a thorough cook to make excellent broth, for care and watchfulness are the only two qualities ' required. A Marvel Outdone. Mr. Finlayson, town-clerk of Stirling, Scotland, in the latter part of the sevI enteenth century, was noted for the j marvelous in conversation. He was on | a visit to the Earl of Menteith and Airth I in his castle of Taha, in the Loch of Menteith ; and was about taking leave, j when he was asked by the earl whether j he had seen the nailing cherry-tree. " No," said Finlayson ; " what sort I of a thing is it ? " " It is," replied the earl, "a tree that has grown out at a goose's mouth from a stone the bird had Bwallowed, and which she bears about with her in her voyages round the loch. It is now in full fruit of the most exquisite flavor, i Now, Finlayson," he added, " can you, ! with all your powers of memory and fancy, match the story of the cherrytree? " " Perhaps I can," said Finlayson, clearing his throat, and adding: "When Oliver Cromwell was at Airth, one of the cannon sent a ball to Stirling, and lodged it in the mouth of a trumpet which one of the troops in the castle was in the act of sounding." 44 Was the trumpeter killed ? " said the earl. " No, my lord," replied Finlayson ; 41 he blew the ball back, and killed the artileryman who had fired it." The Deadly Effects of Absinthe. During the session of the Medical Congress at Lyons, one day was set apart for the study of alcoholic stimulants. On that occasion the physician of the St. Anne Asylum, Dr. Magnan, comparing the chemical action of alcohol and absinthe on man, drew the conclusion that the former acts more slowly, gradually provoking delirium and digestive derangement, while absinthe rapidly results in epilepsy. Then, producing a couple of dogs, he treated one with alcohol and the other with the essence of absinthe, this latter being the activo principle of the absinthe liquor which is commonly drunk. The alcohollaed brute oould not stand up, became sleepy and stupid, and, when set on his legs, trembled in an inert mass ; the other dog experienced at once frightful attacks of epilepsy. Analogous effects are produced in mankind. the AshantVe WAr? The English reverse met in the Ashantee war was as follows: Five tl boats manned find armed, started for tl Chamah to hold a palaver with the o King and chiefs of the Chamah people, q The object songht was to obtain the tl assistance of this tribe against the c< Ashantees. The interview was vcrv p unsatisfactory, however as the Shaman ii chiefs said th% fajtlHi atJt heither for h tidi against the British Government, I: and refused to send chiefs to accompany ft the expedition into the river Prah. E The demeanor of the Chamah tided} not- ,v withstanding', wis So peaceful that si Commodore Commerell apprehended o no danger from them, and deoided to a proceed up the river, keeping near the ti Chamah side of the stream. s< The Commodore says t " The river is it aDout seventy or eignty yaras Droau, c and iVte tveire proceeding satisfactorily v until abont a mile and a half up the e: river, when, without any warning or g without seeing any natives, we were ri fired noon from the dbhsb bush on the Chcfltau side, and found that we had p passed an ambuscade of the natives, b who were pouring a heavy and murder- ci ous fire upon our boats. d " I immediately gave orders to open u fire with the Bmail-arm men. but the tl rockets could not be fired, aS the steam k Cutter was towing the boats. o' " At the first discharge I was shot down, severely wounded in the right r< side, and at the same moment Com- u mander Lnxmore'and Capt. Heldenwere h severely hit. I then ordered the boats U to repair to mid-stream, and, finding b a number of otir mett wounded, I gave tl orders for the expedition to return to tl the Rattlesnake. b " We reached the Rattlesnake about ai 6 p. m., where the wounded were at E once attended Id. 0 u The Rattlesnake was cleared for y action, and in less than two hours time u the town of Chamah was a heap of tl burning ruins, and every etettion had ol been made td Avenge treachery so foul.

"It is not possible many natives ol were killed by these measures but the tl lesson will be severely felt, and those 01 who have gone to the bush will spread far and wide the punishment their dis- w loyalty and treacnery have so deeply e: merited. The English lost four killed ei and twenty wounded in the action. fi: w The Winter Hut Described by One of II the Polaris Crew? w A Seatiiah thus describes the hut ci where the party wintered :?The hut m was twenty-two feet by fourteen, the ^ MdA/1 liAivtsw nliiaflw onorc nrwl _. llitticntuo UDCU UCllig VU1VUJ D^/H4Q I?uv? m the bulkheads of the staterooms of the fa vessel. The roof was covered with sails bi aud was perfectly watertight} a Are a{ was placed in ope end of the hut with a tr stovepipe as a Chimney. A gallery and 0< staterOom were also provided. The w hut was simply one apartment with berths around the sides. When thoroughly banked up with snow all around and supplied with the stoves of the Polaris, the explorers found themselves in possession of a very com- o< fortable lodging for winter, and{ making ^ up their minds to wait in patience for the spring, each Man seemed to be com- w paratively happy. At this time the 11 weather was always dark and the hut ai was kept cheerfully lighted by oil 01 lamps which had been got out of the vessel, the oil used being from seals and walras; the time was beguiled with " reading and games at chess, and a good b fire was kept constantly burning, the G unused coal on board the Polaris having s< been launched and used for the purpose. f( On the 1st of February the coal was s; consumed, and the ship was made to w supply wood?instead. Till the 1st of si April the time was spent in much the n same manner, when the party began to tl consider the propriety of leaving to f< seek their way to some spot where they s might be picked up by some vessel. To t< enable them to do this Mr. Chester, the h chief matfy with the assistance of the ti carpenters and Mr. John Booth, set to f: work to build two boats, the necessary b materials being got from the vessel, j c Each of the boats were twenty-five feet q long, with five beam, square at each p end, boat turned, up and capable of carrying seven men, with stores for two li months. The middle of May arrived t before the boats were completed, owing f to the great difficulty there was in get- c ting materials for construction. c A Frightful Fall. t Au accident, which took place at Wa- ! pello, Iowa, resulted in death, under r , circumstances of unexampled horror, j ! " Professor" J. W. Bailey ascended f from the Fair grounds at that place in r ' a balloon inflated with hot air. The t i mishap followed which so often occurs ( with this Bpecie of balloon. As it left j the ground, the mouth of the bag was seen to be on fire, but this was appar- ^ ently not observed by the aeronaut t until he had reached too great a height T to drop with safety. Higher and higher I he ascended, dinging to a horizontal f bar, which formed his sole support, and ~ which he had designed to make the scene of the gymnastic tumblings and turnings usual in such exhibitions. It may well be conceived that his mind during that awful flight was set upon other things than acrobatic posturings; but no stretcli of imagination can picture the feelings of the doomed wretch as he was thus wafted helplessly and hopelessly upward, further and further away from life and safety, clinging, or rather bound fast, as it were, to the skirts of inevitable death. In most situations of the sort there is a chance, i however slight and desperate, of event- . ual escape. Here, from the very first . almost, tnere could have been none. To the crowd below, watching in an agony 1 of apprehension for the final moment, ( the coutrast between the spangled and ' tawdry splendor of tho poor tumbler < and his terrible fate must have been ex- ' quisitely painful.

Wrought Iron Story.?The story of the shipment of one hundred tons of wrought iron from New York to Liverpool, to be sold at a ptofit for a less 1 price than the corresponding quality of English make, turns out to be a myth. 1 An order for one hundred tons was eo' licited by the agent of an American [ house in New York city^ A Liverpool firm sent an order for- that quantity ' but the American house could not gll it ' without loss, and there the matter apj pears to have ended. , ? ?

Not long ago, a young man of Springield, Mass., had a most favorable oplortunity to enter a business house in lis State, at a large increase over his present salary, with a prospect of soon jetting a place in the firm. His recomuendations were first-class, and the jfficers of the institution were decidedly pleased with his appearance. They, liowever, made him no proposals, nor lid tliey state their lavorauie impressions. A gentleman was requested to ascertain where tho young man spent bis evenings, and what class of young men were his associates. It was found that he spent several nights of the week in a billiard room, and on Sunday afternoon drove a hired span into the country,with three other young bloods. He is wondering why he didn't hear from tho house concerning that coveted position. - Death of Sir Edwin Laxdbker.? The cable annonnces the death of this distinguished, painter.
