FARM, GARDEN AND HOUSEHOLD. Sonxlble Farm Notcn. The use of three-horse teams is often a great saving of labor. Three horses with a double furrow plow, or a wide harrow, will often dtvas much as two two-horse teams separately, and save the wages of ono man. There is often disappointment caused by a falling off in the milk when cows are turned^ upon the new grass and other fer-d stopped. The young grass is defi cient ia nutriment and too watery. A good feed of cut hay and mixed bran and meal given once a day will avoid this. The value of the fleece is increased by in ulioorinf* All filfliv fnir lnrrlrs should bo taken off before tlie sheep is shorn and thrown into a basket by them selves. Never roll these np in the fleece. If auy cuts are made upon the skin of the sheep, rub a little pijie tar upon them. After shearing, guard against cold rain storms. Much trouble in gagging the sheep will be saved if tli"j are kept from the fresh grass or clover after they are washed, and fed hay until sheared. To keep the farm animals in good condition just now wheu the fresh feed is coming in, requires judgment and watchfulness. A sudden change of feed is generally hurtful. When an animal i* found to be ailing, it may be taken for granted that something is wrong with its food or management, and these should be at once looked to for the cause, and the mischief averted. It will be well not to turn the stock out until they have been fed upon their usual fod der, and accustom them to green food gradually. # Young stock should be kept growing from their birth. The science of feed ing ici Vi<w->mir)rr mnr>h nnilflrstnn^ than it has been, and the mixing of dif ferent kinds to make the food more palatable and nutritions should be a matter of close study. Food is the raw material from which we make flesh, milk, and wool, and much may be saved by using this material in the most profitable manner. The mother's milk is the best food for young animals, but to this some additional food may be added by degrees, as soon as the diges tive powers are capable of assimilating it. t .. ., v. Hints to Prepare Meats. Lobscouse.?Cut into dice some cold roast meat, and break up the bones with a chopper or ax. Put the latter into a saucepan with three pints of boiling water; six potatoes, pared and cut very 1 ' -it- *_ 3 _ turn; one onion, sucea mm, uua <i utuu salt and pepper. Boil until the potatoes aro perfectly soft; take out the bones, put in the meat, and stew it slowly for half an hour. Hashed Mutton.?Cut cold mutton into very thin slices, and make a gravy by boiling the bones for two hours with a little onion, pepper an^palt. Strain this gravy and thicken it with a little flour, adding a small amount of tomato or mushroom gravy'to flavor it, and a small piece of butter. When the gravy is of a proper consistency, put in the slices of mutton, and let it simmer slowly for ten minues. Serve on a platter with parsley and sippets of bread. Cold Teal Dressed with "White Sauce.?Boil a pint of milk, and thicken it a little wi'li one teaspoonful of flour wet up with cold water; when well boil ed, put in very thin slices of veal, and simmer slowly fyr fifteen minutes. Have the yolk of an egg well beaten up and add to the meat, also a piece of butter. Let it boil up once, stirring all the time, and serve it on toasted slices of bread. A few slices of bacon cut thin and fried to a crisp make a good relish with this dish. Minced Veal.?Cut some slices of c )ld veal into small bits or dice; take th6 cold gravy ai;d add to it half a pint of boiling water, one tablespoonful of to mato or walr.Tit catsup, the grated peel of one lemon, pepper and salt. Simmer it with the meat slowly for half an hour; then add half a tablespoonful of flour nado into a thin batter, and pour it .nto the gravy, stirring it rapidly. Boil for ten minutes; turn in half a cupful of cream, or the same quantity of milk, with a small piece of butter; let it boil up. Serve on a hot platter garnished with sippets of fried bread. To Make a Corn .llarker. A correspondent of the Ohio Farmer gives the following method of making a pircnle corn marker: Take a plank seven feet long, sixteen inches wide, and one and one-half inches thiok. Pin this on three blocks, five by eight inches thick and sixteen inches long, putting one block at cacli end and one in the mid dle. With this length the marker is easily turned at the ends. For a tongue, get a smooth, tough pole, and fasten it to the center of the plank in such a way that, when the team is hitched up, the n^arker will stand level. Now take a lath; ttae by two inches thick' and ten and one-half feet long. Drive a staple into the plank at each end of the marker and one in the middle. Pass the lath through one outside staple and tho end just through the center staple. Fasten a chain to the outer end, and the marker i3 completed. The chain marks wnere tne miacue oiocjk or marner musi follow the next time across. The lath must be shifted at each end so as to keep the chain on the unmarked land. When using it, stund on the middle of the plank and keep the tongue directly over tiie chain mark. If the first mark was made straight, all the rest will be so, and equally distant apart. If desired, the lath may be fastened to the middle of the plank with a bolt, so that it can be turned from side to side without lift ing. Secure it in position by another bolt, passed threegh the lath and phnk, aear tho ends of the latter. * . Orchard and Nursery. All ground in which young trees are set should be cultivated, so that they may have a chance to grow vigorously and ripen their wood properly. If any trees set last fallare found to be bent by winds, these should be straightened up and tho soil pressed down firmly around the base of the tree. A few large stones placed over the roots <vill keep trees in their proper positions, and this is often a good way to dispose of surplus stones; but care must be used in cultivating around the trees, else the wtrcus wili giuw mpiury umuii^ tut? stones and rob the trees of much nutri ment. Grafting may be done this month at any time provided thecioas wore cut be fore their buds started, and well kept. Trees bearing only inferior fruit may be grafted, and made valuable. Transplanting seedling trees from the seed bed to nur3ery rows should be done early, so that they will be well estab lished by the time droughts come on. S'jme means of shading should be used for all young evergreens and other ten der trees. Set root-drafts at once in nursery rows at a sufficient distance to allow of hor3e cultivation.

A Washington letter to the Cincinnati Commtrcial says : About a week or ten days ago two politicians of national reputation, a member of a great bank ing house in London, and John Cham lwriain, the well known turfman, who makes his winter quarters in this city, sat down to a quite seance at draw in one of our leading hotels. The play grew heavy as time passed, and the in terest become so intense that the sitting, lasted thirty-six hours, at the close of which Chamberlain was winner to the amount of ?140,000. He celebrated his victory by a grand dinner a few nights afterward. Precautions were taken to keep the affair secret; but it leaked out, not* Ithstanding, and has been the lead ing topic in certain circles. Mrs. Mella Dodd, of Bowling Green, Ky., 116 years old, is going to the Cen tennial to see if she can keep her daugh ters?two girls of eighty-three and ninety-four?out of mischief. THE BRITISH SECTION. Metald. Arms, Cutlery, Paper nnd Book*. One of the very few disappointing features in the British section of the Centennial, says the Tribune, is the group of metallurgical products. It contains only nineteen exhibits, and sev eral of these are so small as to escape attention. Of iron in the form of ores, pig metal, rails and steel, there is but a single noticeable collection. Tin plates, even, make a better appearance than the great foundation staple of English in dustry. Wire ropes are prominently shown, and there is a grand display of work in galvanized iron. An inventor exhibits a number of models of regen erating gas furnaces for iron and glass. Monumental granite of two kinds is shown?the familiar Aberdeen granite, and a mottled gray stone, of almost equal beauty, from Bessbrook quarries, roof tiles, and many specimens of con crete blocks made from Portland cement, fire-clay retorts, chalk, whiting, emery, etc. A single exhibit of coal appears in the catalogue, bnt it must be Very small, for I failed to encounter it. A good display is made of shotguns and rifles by seventeen exhibitors, one of whom adds to his show of shooting apparatus a curious contrivance called the regis tered flyer, which flies in the air like a bird, for amateur sportsmen to bang away at. In the group of hardware, cutlery and edge tools there is only a moderately large display. Two of the great Sheffield cutlery lirms do them selves credit, and there are three or four cases of tools and hardware. It is evi dent from the slenderness of this group, and from the scanty display of iron and steel in all forms, that our own manu facturers have conquered their home' field, and that their ohief foreign rivals have practically retired from competi tion with them. Some cases of writing and printing papers will attract ^he notice i)f dealers in those articles. The playing cards, covering large screens, will receive more attention. In the group of education and science there is next to nothing in the way of school books, apparatus or furniture, the few,exhibits, with the ex ception of a single case of school books. being illustrated publications, standard literary works, music books, and speci mens of the art of the engraver and chromo-lithographer. The Illustrated London News sends a large screen covered with engravings. The London Graphic haB an office partitioned off for the use of its artist and correspondent. In the center is a small press run by a gas engine on circulars for distribution. The walls inside and out are hung with <$he original sketches of hundreds of the "best Graphic pictures, among which are sketches taken in Paris during the siege and sent by balloon or pigeon post. There are perhaps half a dozen exhibits of books. One firm has a tasteful pavilion of glass and wood filled with their publications. Around the cornioe, in giidea cnurcn-text letters, is tnis apt quotation from Shakespeare : " Oome and take choice of all my library, and so beguile thy sorrow." A hexaglot Bible in six quarto volumes will excite the en thusiasm of bibliomaniacs. The kindred group of scientific and philosophical in struments is tolerably full, many of the best London makers being represented. Tirre is also a good collection of objects mounted for the microscope. In carpets the display is exceedingly fine, and in the way of Axminsters woVen in a single piece, much the best in the entire exhibition. A series of inclosures under the gallery on the north side of the portion of the building occupied by tiie British section are covered on walls and floors with these beautiful fabrics. In the line of floor oilcloths the display is remarkable for the immense size of the cloths made in a single piec?. Under these useful articles is hung an object which, though classed with them, is in tended solely for decorative purposes. It is a painting of the "Last Supper," on a material which, if not the oilcloth of commerce, closely resembles it. The piece is about nine feet long by four feet wide, and the price is ?150. Where is the American Sailor? At a mooting of the New York board of aldermen to discuss the question of the East river bridge, a ship captain stated that it would cost $150 and requite a whole day's work to send down the topgallant masts of his ship, so thftt she could pass under the bridge. Vessel captains agree in asserting that the ser vices. of. professional riggers would be required in order to pedpm that intri cate feat, and allege that only on board naval vessels would it be possible to find crews that could manage so abstruse an affair without external^aid. Comment nig on tne above tne 'rimes says: va rious persons have been, in the habit of daily remarking during the last twenty years that the sailor is becoming ex tinct The remark ha3 thus lost some of its novelty, but that the sailor has finally and totally vanished has been made suddenly apparent by the evidence given before the aldermen. Not only do captains of clipper ships confess their inability to p3rform a simple task which every able seaman ought to thoroughly understand, but they actually refer (o the superior seamanship of the navy as an admitted and notorious fact. It is enough to make "Bully Waterman" turn in his grave, and to wring, even without the aid of a spiritual medium, indignant protests from the ancient ' shell-backs " and wild "packetarians" who sleep in the Potter's Field. When the Young America made her first voyage ?was it twenty-two or twenty-three ye^rs ago ??there was, perhaps, a lib eral minded mariner in the forecastle who would have admitted that a sporadic "sailor-man" might occasionally be p "? XI t^-l. AT :j XI J. i.1 iouiia m une navy, uut uio mut tno average crew of a California clipper or a Black Ball " slaughter-house " was not superior in practical seamanship to the entire United States navy would have been resented as a orazy insult. Yet here come the captains of our surviving merchant marine and unblushingly an nounce that oniy in the navy can be found sailors who can send down a top gallant mast. There is now no room for doubt as to the extinction of the sailor. He is absolutely and completely gone, and it is a pity that Mr. Sterne is now in a situation where ho cannot " drop the tear of sensibility" over the grave of the last sailor man. A Romantic Incident. A rather romantic incident occurred recently in Boston, which has atJ least the merit of novelty and is not lacking the poetic element. A stranger entered a horse car, when a lady with a bright eyed little girl of three years entered and took a seat next to him. The child, wishing to watch the stroet sights, stood np between the two. Mr. A., noticing that the child was playful, in dulged in a little quiet familiarity, and at length remarked, as the car passed round a curve : " Don't fall, baby, papa would be sorry." The lady's face, which had worn rather a smiling expres sion, changed at once, but before he recovered his senses, seeing the faux pas he had made, the little girl exclaim ed : "Papa's dead." The position was embarrassing, but he changed the con versation by a casual remark. The child, however, turned her blue eyes upon him, and said, in the most artless manner: "You dot any little girls?" " No," replied 4he gentleman; "I had a little girl once, but she and her moth er are both dead." The mother of the child was now more confused than ever, but when her eyes met those of the gen tleman thero was a sympathetic expres sion percc prime. The lady left tlio car, and though no word had been exchanged between them, the fcict that one was a widower aud the other a widow'was known to both. The favorable impression created was mutnal, for a chance meeting a few days after was availed of by the gentle man to ofter an apology for what might be considered rudeness on his part in speaking to the child, and the lady's ex cuses for the forwardness of her little girl led to an acquaintance which will in a few weeks, if report speaks the 'truth, result in an alliance which will unite the mother and child to a most excellent husband and fond father, who holds an honorable position in a Western city. MORBID IMPULSES. Hunting Murderers with Dogs--A British Barber Commits a Terri ble Crime?A Detective's Story. We condense the following story from our latest foreign tiles, as a most inter esting though painful contribution to the psychology of crime. William Fish, the criminal, was a married man, aged twenty-six, and Emily Holland, the vic tim, a child of seven. Suspicion attach ed to Fish from the commencement. The prosecuting officer thus recited the story in court: " We searohed his house several times over without being able to find any traces of blood, and we had no further evidence to justify us in arresting him. On Sunday morning a man named Peter Taylor, a painter, of Nelson street, Preston, volunteered hifl services with a dog, in fact with two dogs. One is a Springer spaniel, and n K1/ %/->/111rvnnrl nnrl nnintfir llJULV V I'll OX JJD a WiVVuuvu**v? w-v. Jf- ? bred. I arranged with some of my offi cers, Police Detectives Holden and Livesey, to go with the owner of the dogs where the body was found, near Bastwell, and endeavored to trace the scent, for, according to one witness, a man visited the place on Thursday morning about ten o'clock. They went in the direction of Boysham plantation, but the dogs were unable to make any scent. It was arranged further that they bhould go to Lower Cunliffe, where the legs had been discovered in a oon duit. They hunted the fields as best they could, but without success. They hunted the fields and woods in all direc tions, but without finding anything, and they returned to Blackburn. . I had ar ranged previously that the man with the dogs should remain till night to make a further experiment. We arranged to visit two barber shops, one kept by Denis Whitehead, who resided in Birley street, and the other kept by the prisoner. I may men tion that we arranged it private, so that there would not be a crowd about to ob struct Us, and .vre managed to get into both houses unobserved by the inhabit ants. In the first house, that of Denis Whitehead, the bloodhound did not pay auy particular attention, nor did it appear to soent anything. We had pos session of the prisoner's house at that time, and the prisoner was in, and also his wife, and of course we bqgun in the prisoner's shop. The d?g? on entering the house, begun to scent all round the rooms in which the. prisoner carries on his business. He entered the closets, and weqt to all the corners and crevices of the house. It further went into tne VxinV rnnm. seen tin or all round SOUndlv. and evidently scented something,, nJt also jumped upon the sink stone, and appeared to scent something there. "At this time the door -which leads to the upper room was shut, and when De tective Officer Holden opened the door and went up stairs, the dog immediately rushed after him. The dog scented round the back room, whioh is a room where there is no fireplace, and really scented something. "Jt then passed in the front room, and firially sc6iited in the. fireplace. Now, this fireplapi3:had nothing in the fire-grate nor appearance of a fire in any shape or form* Mr. Tay lor, observing the scent, knew what it meant, and he immediately rushed to the chimney, and found, what shall be ?*11 ??.n_ produced, a nuxnau snuu, eviueuwy wnn of a child, with part of the hair on it. The hair has b^en saturated with blood. There are also; parts of the broken s^ull and parts of smidier bones. There are bones which appear to belong to the forearm, and bones:-that belong to the hands. There were, in addition, small pieces of garments?Bmall piiecesof gray calico and a chemise. The deceased child's clothing was of that description. There is one extraordinary feature in the case., Amongst the articles brought down from the chimney was a piece of paper, which appears to be a newspaper of some kind, and that appears to have some blood on it, together wjth clean wheat straw. There are no such pieces of straw In any other part of the house. While this process was going on Super intendent Eastwood had accompanied the man with the dogs tainform the prisoner of the purport or their visit, and that they had a bloodhound and were going to search the house. I be lieve then that his condition was very palpable,.and that he was extraordin arily affected by the announcement. When the skull was found his wife and he were both present, and I at once or dered him to be taken into custody on the charge of murder. He afterward said tnat ne was innocent, ana Knew nothing about it. We managed to have him removed from the place before there was any excitement and before the in habitants were aware of what was going on. If we had been three or four min utes more I don't believe we could have brought him to court. Under the cir cumstances, however, we managed to bring him without any interruption. This fs a human skull (pointing to it) with three teeth left in the lower jaw, and these plainly exhibited. This is the skull of a child, and we know of no other child missing, or having been murdered, than Emily Holland, and from all the circumstances we do believe this skull and the parts of the body form the head, hands and arms of the de oeased Emily Holland. I will simply give evidence that these were found in the prisoner's presence, and that he was charged and made no reply." . The details of the discovery were then brought out on the examination of the detective-in-chief: Q. Did you examine the chimney ? A. I did. I looked up the ohimney both down stairs and up stairs. My reason for looking up the chimney -was to see if I conld discover any recent marks in the chimney?marks of soot, being removed or disturbed?but there was not a single scratch or anything, and there did not appear to have been any Are in the grafe for some time. Had I seen a mark of any kind I should cer tainly have searched further. On Sun day, the sixteenth of April, we searched again. I was accompanied by Detective Officer Holden and Peter Taylor, of Nelson street, Preston," painter. He had two dogs with him. I went with Taylor to the prisoner's shop. One of the dogs was a bloodhound and pointer, and the other was a spaniel. "When they went into another barber's shop the dogs did not scent anything. We next went to the prisoner's shop. When we went into the place the prisoner had been brought to the shop by Detective JLavesey along witn ins wiie. uneri v Taylor and I and Holden got inside I g spoko to the prisoner, and I told him t that the dqg was a bloodhound and that r we were going to make a further search p of his premises. We did not speak, a The bloodhound began to scent the a place. This was in the first room on the o ground floor. There are two rooms below and two above. The room he was in was the one used as his shop. Then he went into the back kitchen, ? and about the slopstone in the kitchen . both the dogs commenced to bark, as if scenting something. Detective Wolden opened the stairs door which leads out j on the back kitchen, and the dog, with out being spoken to, made right up- * stairs. The bloodhound went into the ? back room, and then into the front. When it got beside the chimney it h "seemed to scent it, and Taylor, who ap- " peared to understand the movements of the dog, at once doubled himself up in the chimney. He got his head up and put his hand down a draft or recess on ^ the left hand side of the chimney. A * draft is about the width of a brick. First , he pulled out two cinders intermixed with a little bone or two. He then put his hand down the same placo and brought out part of the skull. The prisoner and his wife were present at the time, and the prisoner was very nervous, t I sent for the chief constable, and he i gave orders that the prisoner should f be taken into custody. He was taken t into custody by Detectives Holden and c LiveBey. Wo removed him by the back i door, and the house was loft in the t charge of two police officers during the night. Next morning I made a further t search with Mr. Potts, and took down c the bricks in the chimney piece. We found these portions of the skull (pro- ? i ducing small pieces of bones). The , pieces vary in size. We also found a e i piece of paper burnt, which was down in i the draft along with the bones. There s i had been no fire in the grate for some time. After the prisonor had been I iken into custody I charged him at the olice station with the wilful murder of Imily Holland, aged seven years, at loss street, on March 28, 1876. Coroner?What reply did he make to lat? Witness?He replied: "I am inno 3nt, and God knows I am." Xhe prisoner's detailed confession is abstautially to the following effect: 'hat, on the day when the tragedy was dacted, he sent Emily Holland for half a ounce of tobacco. When she return d he asked her to come in the house, [e got hold of her and carried her up airs, and in the front room committed ie outrage upon her. He took a razor nd coolly cut her throat. To prevent ie blood from covering the floor he Tapped her clothes around her. Next e battered her brains out and cut up ie bodv. outtincr the head and armB on le fire, which he had recently kindled 1 that room, and wrapped the trunk ad legs in newspapers, concealing the arce's till it would be convenient1 to jmove them. After this he went down ;airs and shaved some of' his customers ith the razor which had been used to it the girl's throat. The horrible work aving been finished, he locked the door E his' shop and went to the theater, reat smpathy is felt for the bereaved irents of fimily Holland. The mother in a desponding state. The father is little better now that the murderer is been found out.. - ;iw ; >vi THE NOTABLE BUILDINGS.

The points of greatest attraction ere where the printing presses were ;riking off the daily newspapers. A and scroll sawing machine attracted a rowd all the time. It is manipulated by very dexterous workman, who is a enius in his way, with a lively streak of umor running through him. From ttle square blocks of wood he sawed at the most intricate puzzles, made peglasses, toy chairs, and a hundred bher trinkets, to the astonishment, of il beholders. A loom at work weaving ispenders was a novelty to many, as &,e knitting machine, which ype 3gaged in knitting the body of an un ersturt a mile long. At least it would 0 a mile, long, if they didn't cut it up 1 shirts of the regulation shortness, and ossessing, in consequence, all the un jmfortableness which regulation un ershirts habitually pot&ess.

Machinery hall will equire some little time to give it com pleteness, but already it is far enough dvanced to assure the visitor that man, t least, can fix no limit to the capacity f intelligence. A Narrow Escape. The attention of Dr. Mowbray, as hat gentleman stated in a recent lec are, was first attracted to nitro gly orine in 1865, by several terrible explo ions which it caused. One occurred in Jew York city in Greenwich street, op losite the Wyoming Hotel. One of the ;uests of the hotel, on polishing his loots, had noticed a reddish vapor is nino frnm fVirt hnr nn hft rested lis fobt.1 The hotel clerk took the box iutside and threw it into the gutter. An xplosion instantly followed, by which very pane of glass within a hundred rards was shattered, pedestrians were hrown down, and the pavement broken tp. It tnrned out that the box con ained nitro-glycerine, left by a guest as ecurity for his board. Labor iii the Garden. A poor old man, having to use acrutch o help him along, sat down on the grass n Detroit, his back against a close board ence, to nibble at a hard biscuit. It rasn't long before he realized that the iwner of the place behind him was work g in ihe garden, assisted by his es imable wife. . > " That's no way to make an onion >edl" the old man heard tho husband all out. " Perhaps not; you know all about ;ardening!" mocked the wife. " I've made more onion beds than you iver heard of 1" he hoarsely said. "Made 'em sitting on a chair in a aloon, didn't you?" she squeaked. " Go to blazes with your old garden!" le yelled, throwing down his hoe.

In his right hand he holds a ff or spear that jingles harshly every le the ground is struck by it. The ne hand also holds a bow, which, :enthe strings are pulled or struok, its a dull, booming sound.
