* ^msmmmm FARM, GARDEN AND HOUSEHOLD. | Seasonable Farm Not??. . Many farmers are unaware that corn may bo husked by machinery, and where a largt> orop in to be handled, will be found a great help. Other helps for | smaller growers will be found in some i greatly improved husking gloves that are now mado. They are a protection j against cold, and effective. In many places, in the Middlo and Southern States for instanoe, a winter ] pasture is very convenient, if not neces- j sary. Rye is generally sown for this j purpose on fields intended for a spring i crop, or the crop is left to grow after j having been pastured. Three bushels ! of ^ed should be sown, and the earlier ' the bettor. Winter oats are ooming into favor in j Southern States, and are being tested in 1 the Middle States. It furnishes fall and | winter pasture, or a heavier crop of grain than spring oats. Two bushels per acre should be sown. The earlier it! im ar\xsm fVto f Ar Rye is the flrst crop that can be used ; in the spring for soiling purposes. Those > farmers or dairymen who intend to soil | any of their stock, can best begin now ! by sowing a piece of rye for early green j feed. The ground is cleared in time for j oats and peas mixed, or fodder corn. ; To make soiling crops pay they must be j richly manured, ai much labor is in- i volved in this method of feeding stock, j and only heavy crops will pay for the j labor. Forward crops of mangels or beets may be thinned now to help out the fall feed. Tbe more room the leaves have | to spread, the riper and more nutritious the roots will be. The whole flock should now be looked after. Sneep intended for market should ! be pushed forward as rapidly as possible.

They may now be coupled i with the ram. For market lambs the ' Merino ewe crossed with a Cotswold i ram, is perhaps the best choice, giving ; large and rapidly growing lambs, which j are easily fed and fatted. Experienced j breeders have found no difficulty on account of the ram, nevertheless, a moderate sized, compact, heavy bodied ram is preferable to a lanky, rangy animal. Young stock of all kinds should be prepared for winter. Get them in good condition before the oold weather arrives, or all is lost now that has been ! gained by the summer's feed. To keep j them steadily growing at all seasons is j the secret of raising profitable animals, i More improvement is noticable in swine than in any other stock, but un* x _ 1 L I less improvement is up uy uio u?o of thoroughbred males, the stock will go back. As a primary principle in breeding, it may be said that a half-bred or grado male shouid never be used to produce stock. .For a sow that produces ten young at once, it is the very poorest economy to breed her to a poor male; no stock pays better to improve than swine, on account of the rapid increase. Formers' Club Questions. Can hams be kept during hot weather free from insects or taint without the protection of a smokehouse or perfectly dark room ? Sew each ham up in a canvas bag and whitewash it, or rub them in wood ashes, and pack them in barrels, covering them with wood ashes. I Is there an effective preventive of fire j blight ? An experienced cultivator states that, when properly performed, root pruning is a preventive of fire blight; for medium sized trees ho cuts about two feet off, and goes deep enoagh to sever the principal roots. If cut too far from the ba*e cf the trunk the pruning will not check the disease. Enrly spring i3 the best time Everybody knows that old pork barrels should be thoroughly cleaned before being used for new pork; but how can it bo done, that is the question ? A lye composed of strong wood ashes and water applied with a stiff broom is all that is required. The lye takes hold of the greasy partioles, and will, with a rigorous scouring, leave the barrels aweet and clean. Thoroughly rinse in oold wator to remove the ashos. Wash again with boiling water, then rinse once more with cold water, and the barrels will be ready for use. What recipe makes the best whitewash for outside work ? A whitewash that serves nearly as well as oil paint on wood, brick and stone is made by the following recipe, which has been advised lately in several agricultural journals: Slack one peck of new lime with boiling water, cover dnring the process to keep in the steam. Strain the liquid and add a peck of salt, pre viously dissolved in warm water, one | and one-half pounds of rice paste and I half a pound of finely ground whiting. Add two and one-half gallons of hot water; stir well and apply quite hot; half a pound of glue, dissolved and stirred in, will be a groat improvement; mix well together, and let stand for several days. Dried Tom&toea. Housekeepers in the country, who have many tomatoes and few cans, can easily preserve a largo quantity of this very easily raised fruit by drying it. This method requires little outlay, and comparatively little trouble. Scald and peel the tomatoes, as for canting. Boil them slowly in a porcelain kettle or store jar until the original quantity is reduced one-half. Then season them in the proportion of a teaspoonful of salt and Violf ft mirifnl nncrar fn a fyallnn r\f stewed tomatoes. Spread on the plates and dry qnickly, without scorching. As the moisture dries away and the stewed fruit takes shape, scrape it up so that both sides may dry, and let the contents of several plates, heaped up lightly, stand in bright sunshine a little while before putting away. Store in bags and keep dry. When wanted for use, put a small quantity soaking in considerable water several hours, or over night. Stew in the same water long and slowly?three or four hours?keeping boiling water at hand to add if it grows thick, and so is in danger of burning. It should be i quite" thin whetf done, and may be thickened with bread crumbs, and seasoned with a little sugar, salt, and butter?of course tomatoes should not be made sweet. A Pica for the Crow. The crow is quite as fond of bugs and worms and little field mice and young snakes as he is of the farmer's corn. He 1 is a good policeman about the farmhouse and drives away the hawk, who j can do twice the amount of mischief he I is guilty of. He hunts the grassfields I tmrl r?nlln nnf. fho MbrnillsTo ?ll ! V"W w-wf ?UU Ckll manner of pests, and probably saves ; many other crops, if he is hard on the ' oorn. A gentleman had a tame crow who ' trotted out after him as ne went out to j wage his annual war on tho squash j bugs. His sable attendant put his head | on one side and watched him for a few ! minutes, as if to see how he did it. Comprehending the business at last, he j went for those bugs with a will, and I cleared the patch in fine style. He took it for a business the remainder of the ! season, insuring a fine crop. To Determine the Axe ot Egg*. An egg is generally called freah I when it has been laid only one or two j days in summer, and two to six days in I winter.^ The shell being porous, the; water in the interior evaporates, and ! leaves a civity of greater or less extent. ! The yolk of the ejrg sinks, too, as may | be easily seen 1 y holding it toward "a canile or the sun; and, when shaken, a slight shock is felt if the egg is not' fresh. To determine the precise age of eggs, dissolve about four ounces of1 common salt in a quart of pme water, i and then immerse the egg. If it is one day old, it will descend to the bottom of i the vessel; but if three days, it will i float in the liquid. If more than tivo j day3 old, it will come to the snrface and ; projeot above in proportion to its increased nge.

A Standing Bock letter says: An Indian arrived from the hostile camps with a message from seven of the hostile chiefs. Ho is known to have left this agency abont three weeks ago for the hostile camps. While he does not claim to have been with Sitting Bull, he says he was with another much larger camp, where the lodges and Indians covered all the praiiie. He reports these Indians as abundantly supplied with fresh meat, buffalo and antelope being in great abundance. They are also reported to have more arms and ammunition than they know what to do with. They daily watch the men who are engaged in building the new post on Tongue river, and say at one time they could have destroyed another body of troops as they did the lamented Custer and his band, but they thought they were going home, and for that reason did not care to disturb them. This is supposed to have been General Miles and his regiment when they started back for the Yellowstone They are anxious to treat for peace, and do not care to fight the soldiers if they are let alono, but if they are not, will fight for years if necessary. The writer says several of the bands refused to be counted, and rations were accordingly withheld fiom them. One chief who submitted to ihe count refused to receive his rations, and scattered them on the ground. It is claimed that the count, though not completed, win not show more than half the number of Indians which the agent claimed to have been issuing tc Though the new supplies have not arrived, fnll rations of flour, and half rations of sugar, coffee, tobacco and bacon were issued. The correspondent claims the Indians received full as much under this issue as they had formerly received for double the number of lodges. Captain Collins has been detailed to assist Lieutenant Roach in the count of refractory lodges. Advices received from Fort Pierre, and subsequently confirmed, report that a party of five men were killed by Indiana near the Wakpa Sica, on their way to the Black Hills. The massacre took place near the head of the Sica, and it is thought that some of the party must have got away and penetrated the foot hills as far as Crook City, from which place a force of fifty miners came out to open the road to the Missouri. It is reported that these were attacked and surrounded, and held corralled on a hill for a whole day, when a messenger escaped and went to the hills for re-enforcements. Twenty others came out to the nnnininnAn /"if 1-ViO VlQOl"O(TO/"} mOTl V>T1 fc VlA oooiovauw Ui wuw MWWVQVW WM. fore being able to co-operate with tlaem they were attacked and overpowered by the Indiana, and all massacred. Thists the last report, which bas not yet been confirmed, bnt it seems probable, as the Indians have reoently appeared in large numbers from the hostile camps in the neighborhood of the Black Hills, and even at the Cheyenne river ^genoy. The troops having been withdrawn from Fort Pierre, the miners are no longer detained till sufficiently large companies are formed for protection, but prooeed to the hills in small parties, and thus fall an easy prey to the savages. General Custer's Remington rifle and a black horse he used to ride at Lincoln have been captured by some Black Hillers from a young warrior killod on the route to the Black Hills. He'd Suffered Enough. Capt. Bob Shaftoe concluded to run for Congress. He had been in the wars ?he had fought and bled?and his record as a soldier was of the very best. Of coarse, having consented to run, he had to take the stump. Bob could be eloquent upon occasion, especially -when picturing battles scenes; and he indulged rather freely in this style, for be knew more about war than he did about politics.' His opponent was a politician, and not a soldier. One day Bob addressed an assembled multitude in frout of a cross-road grocery. He told tho story of his hardships in the field eloquently and touchingly. He told how he had led a forlorn hope; how he had been stricken down under the very muzzle of the enemy's battery; and how he had lain two nights and one day suffering where he fell before succor came. And other things he told ueqally as thrilling. When he had concluded, one of tho sovereigns approached him with sympathy in every look. " Oap'n Bob, was all that true you told us ?" "True as gospel, my friend." "And vou raillv fit richt unto the month of*the enemy's cannon?" "Yes." " And got knocked over ?" "Yes." 'And como nigh dyin??two whole nights in misery ?" "Yes, my friend, it is all trne as I have told yon. I was wonnded four | tim<.s after that?" " Well," said the interrogator, with visible emotion. "I'm blamed if you haint suffered enough for the country. I don't see why we should send you out among them Congress fellows. They're a hard lot. T'other man is younger 'n you, and aint of much account anyway. I say, let bim suffer awhile ; so I guess I'll vote for him !" Poisoned by Eating Toadstools. Mr. Flint, of Louisville, Ky., gathered what he thought wa? a flue lot of mushrooms, and ordered them cooked for dinner. They were placed on the table at dinner, hot and steaming, Mr. Flint, his sister, and his three children, two boys and one girl, eating of them, Mr. Flint and his daughter eating more heartily than the other members of the family. Not long after dinner all five were taken with violent vomiting and other signs of poisoning, and a physician was summoned, when it was ascertained that the supposed mushrooms were toadstools. The proper remedies and restoratives were used, and in an hour or two all were out of danger. The father and daughter, who ate moro freely than the others, were more seriously affected. When Men are at their Best. Dr. Beard states that from an analysis of the lives of a thousand representative I men in all the great branches of the I * i *1? T- _ Ai. _ J: I oamau iamiiy, ne maue mo iubuuvuij that the golden decade was between forty and fifty; the brazen between twenty and thirty; the iron between fifty and sixty. The superiority of youth and middle life over old age in original work appear" all the greater when we consider the fact that all the positions of honor anil prestige?professorships and public stations?are in the hands of the old. Reputation, like money and position, is mainly confined to the old. Men are not widely known until long after they have done the work that gave them their fame. Portraits of great men are delusions ; statues are lies ! Tbey are taken when men have become famous, which, on the average, is at least twentyfive years after they did the work which gave them their fame. Original work requires enthusiasm. If all the original work done by men under forty-five was annihilated, thev would bo reduced to barbarism. Men are at their best at that time when enthusiasm and experience ar<e almost evenly balanced. This period, on the average, is from thirtyeight to forty. After this the law is that experience increases, but enthusiasm decreases. A Painter's "Whim. The house in which Turner, the painter, lived was eo dirty and disorderly that it was known as "Turner's den." He was very untidy, and in this dwelling his peculiarity had full Bway. The windows were never cleaned, and had in them breaches patched with paper; the door was black and blistered; the iron palisades were rusty for lack of paint. If a would-be visitor knocked or rung, it was long before the summons was replied to by a wizened, meager old man, who would unfasten the chain sufficiently to see who knocked or rung, and the almost invariable answer was : " You cau't come in." It was here that be kept for many years the greater part of his store of pictures, shrewdly calculating upon the time when they should be worth thousands of pounds. The Fearful Little Maid. She stands within the daiaied.fleld, A little maiden all alone ; And bending down she takes a flower, And plucks its petals one by one. " He lo**^aie woll; he does not love" ; Trembling, weeping, now is she. " lib, does lie love ? or loves he not ? I cannot try ! I dero not see !" Her heart is beating loud and fast, Her blinding tears arc like a pall : She does not hear the eager step, She does not see the shadow fall. The flower iB taken from her hand, Swiftly the petals he removes. " He loves?lovoa not?he lovee?loves not. See, darling!?'tis the last?he loves 1" A SPECIAL CONSTABLE. Two women, sisters, kept the toll-bar at. ? villace in Yorkshire. It stood apart from the village, and they often felt uneasy at night, being lone women. One day they received a considerable sum of money, bequeathed them by a relation, and that set the simple souls all in a flutter. They had a friend in the Tillage, the blacksmith's wife; so they went and told her their fears. She admitted that theirs was a lonesome plaoe, and she would not live there, for one, without a man. Her discourse sent them home downright miserable. The blacksmith's wife told her husband all about it when he came in for his dinner. " The fools 1" said he; " how is anybody to know they have got brass in the house ?" * " Well," said the wife, "they made no secret about it to me; you need not go for to tell it to all the town?poor souls I" "Not I,"said the man; "but they will publish it, never fear; leave women folks alone for making their own trouble with their tongues." There the subject dropped, as man and wife have things to talk about besides their neighbors. The old women at the toll-bar, what with their own fears and their Job's * 1 X- -1-2 T4.U comiorcer, ueguu wj wuym wim apprehension as night came on. However, at sunset the carrier passed through the gate, and at the sight of his friendly faoe they brightened up. They told him their care, and begged him to sleep in the house that night. " Why, how can I?" 6aid hb. "I am due at ; but I will leave you my dog." The dog was a powerful mastiff. The women looked at each other expressively. " He won't hurt us, will he ?" sighed one of them, taintly. " Not he," said the carrier, cheerfully. Then he called the dog into the house, and told them to lock the door, and went away whistl ng. The women were left contemplating the dog with that tender interest apprehension is sure to excite. At first he seemed staggered at this off-hand proceeding of his master; it confused him, tVinn hA snnfTWl ftfc the door: then, as the -wheels retreated, he began to see plainly that ho was an abandoned dog; %e delivered a fearful howl and flew at the door, scratching and barking furiously. The old women fled the apartmf at, and were next seen at an upper window screaming to the carrier : " Come back I come back, John ! He is tearing the house down!" " Drat the varmint!" said John, and came back. On the road he thought what was best to be done. The good naturod fellow took his greatcoat out of the cart and laid it down on the floor. The mastiff instantly laid himself on it. "Now," said John, sternly, "let us have no more nonsense; you take charge of that till I come back, and don't ye let nobody steal that there, nor yet t' wives' brass. There now," said he kindly to the women, "I^hall be back this way breakfast time, and he won't budge till then." " And he won't hurt us, John ?" " Lord, no ! Bless your heart, he is as sensible as any Christian; only, Lord sake, woman! don't ye go to take the coat from him, or you'll be wanting a new gown yourself, and maybe a petticoat and all." He retired, and the old women kept at a respectful distance from their proteotor. Ho never molested them; and, indeed, when they spoke cajolingly to him he even wagged his tail in a dubious way; but still, as they moved about, he squinted at tliem out of his bloodshot eye in a way that checked all desire on their part to try on the carrier's coat. Thus protected, they went to bed earlier than usual; they did not undress; they were too much afraid of everything, especially their protector. The night wore on, and presently their pharpened souses let them know that the dog was getting restless; he suuffed and then he growled, and then he got up and pattered about, mutteriDg to himself. Straightway with furniture they barricaded tho door through which their protector must pass to devour them. But, by-aud-bvo, listening acutely, they heard a scraping and a grating outside thfl window of the room where the dog was, and he continued growling low. This was enough; they slipped out at tho back door, and left their money to save their lives; they got into the village. It was pitch dark, and all the hnnxpfl hlook hnt two; ono was the rmb lie house, casting a triangular gfeam across the road a long way off, and the other was the blacksmith's house. Here was a piece of fortune for the terrified women. They burst into their friend's house. "Oh I Jane, the thieves have come I" and they told her in a few words all that had happened. "Nay, Jane, we heard the scraping outside the window. Oh, woman, call your man, and let him go with us." "My man?he is not here." " Where is he then ?" " I suppose he is where other workingwomen's husband's are, at the public house," she said, rather bitterly, for she had her experience. The old women wanted to go to the publio house for him ; but the blacksmith's wife was a courageous woman, and, besides, she thought it was most likely a raise alarm. my, nay, saia she, " last time I went in for him there I got a fine affront. "I'll come with you," said she. "I'll take the poker, and we have got our tongues to raise the town with, I suppose." So they marched to the toll-bar. When they got near it, they saw something that staggered this heroine. There was actually a man half in and half out of the window. This brought the blacksmith's wife to a standstill, and the timid pair implored her to go back to the village. " Nay," said see, " what for ? I see but one?and?hark I" it is my belief that the dog is holding of him." However, she thought it safest to be on the same side with the dog, lest the man might turn on her. She made her way into the kitchen, followed by the other two, and there a sight met her eyes that changed all her feelings, both toward the robber and toward each other. The great mastiff had pinned a man by the throat, and was pulling at Lim, to draw him through the window, with fieroe but muffled snarls. The man's weight alone prevented it. The window was like a picture frame, and in that frame there glared, with lolling tongue and starting eyes, the white face of the village blacksmith, their courageous friend's villainous husband. She uttered an appalling scream or>/I flow iinr?n th? rfner unrl f'hokfid him ' with her two hands. Ho held, and j (growled, and tore until he was all but; throttled himself, then he let go and the man fell. Bat what struck the ground outside, like a lump of lead, was, in truth, a lump of clay; the man was quite dead, and fearfully torn about the throat. So did a comedy end in an appalling and most piteous tragedy; not that the Booundrel himself deserved any pity, but his poor, brave, honest wife, to whom he had not dared confide the villainy he had meditated. The outlines of this true story were in several journals. I have put the disjointed particulars together as well as I oonld. 1 have tried hard to learn the name of the village, and what became of this poor widow, bnt have failed Htherto. Should these lines meet the t d of any one who can tell me, I hope Ld will, and without delay. The Fatal Prize Fight. In the following article the Christian Alliance is the spokesman for the greater part of the nation: At a prize fight, near Philadelphia, one of the pugilists died on the field. When the master of ceremonies called " time " there was oue who did not respond for the simple reason that lie had done with " time " and was p&siug over the solemn river. The next scene was that of carrying the body home to the father. And what a I body it was! The face that had onco been a sweet child's face, that had cheered the father and mother, that had even in a humble home been the home's light, lay now without semblance of the human form divine. It had been pounded into a formless mass. Than that prize fight nothing could be more humiliating it would seem to the whole length and breadth of the land. The poor little fellow who died in the oontest was so humble in property that when he put up ten dollars that he would win he put up all the property he i-i _ ii. 1 3 mi i. _ j a\_ _ naa m ine worm. xuuh tie suowea me condition of a simple idler, of a man willingly poor. Had he staked what common sense or nobleness he possessed, the showing would have been smaller still. To hail snch a hero came a crowd of devils from all the purlieus of vice. These howled around the rope, and the harder the blows the more exquisite their delight. The presence of these rendered the scene more infernal. In the distance appeared a few policemen representing the United States aneChristianity and the centennial yeard and having nttered a childish shont, ran, back to a place of safety. This cast a blush of shame over the aflair, recalling as it did the weakness of the great republic in dealing with criminals. There has been no event for a long while in which might be fonnd so many painfnl and sickening particulars. Such an exhibition could not occur among savages, for in those tribes blows pass only between angry enemies, not between friends; snch a spectacle never occurred at tho old Roman amphitheaters, for there the pugilists fought unflor fwninnlnirvn. It would at first thought seem that a law should bo passed making such sport punishable in a most severe manner, and inoluding in the penalty all who even acted as spectators; but this longing for a law is only the result of a simplomindodness that forgets how powerless our nation is to enforce what criminal law it has already placed on its statute books. Any one who marks the utter weakness of the State as to swindlers, thieves, and murderers, will find his desire for a stringent law against fighting very muob weakened. The daily press views a legal remedy as hopeless and in the case under notice has been compelled to find a little satisfaction in tffe fact * ?

Let it be remembered that the best ocokery of the best viands in the world is comparatively thrown away, in its health giving and nourishing qualities, if the food be swallowed hastily and in lumps. From the sesthetical side of the question, too, a grave mistake is this haste and imperfect mastication. If to eat be a necessity, and if the satisfaction of this necessity be pleasant, as nature intends it to be; if a sensitive palate be given us to embrace our pleasure, and to enable us to enjoy the goods the gods provide?why, in the name of all that is rational, should there be anything grosser in enjoying the fine flavor of a well cooked dish than in enjoying the scent of a full blown rose, particularly when the former in some shape is a necessity, while the latter is merely a luxury. Therefore, philosophically, it is a grave error and an ungrateful deed to swallow well cooked, palatable food at such a pace as prevents your getting the full amount of pleasure oat of the act of eating aud which renders yon indifferent to your cook's skill. There are some who condemn epicurism as something horrible and as likely to lead to murder, petit larceny and other objectionable crimes; but they cften confound refinement and discrimination in feeding with gluttony, and, in their desire to avoid this and set a high example of indifference to the fle?h, adopt a scornful disregard of what and how they eat and drink, and, pretonding to be above such mundane considerations, bring themselves to a chronic state of ill health, which it takes years of strict regimen to recover from. No; you must finger over the taste of yoar food as you linger over the swell of a flower. Nature demands of you this concession to health, and there can bo nothing more sinful in indulging the sense of taste than the senee of smell. Having swallowed your dinner iu lumps, the usual oustom ia to endeavor to counteract the discomfort produced by washing it down, and rendering it soluble by huge draughts of fluid. This is merely adding insult to the injury you have done your stomach, and is resented accordingly. Copious draughts are just as injurious as large, quickly devoured mouthfuls, and drink should be taken as cautiously and slowly as food. Thirst is really more effectually assuaged by swallowing slowly a moderate quantity than by takiug a large one at a gulp, aud a little thus goes further than much. The best check upon immoderate draughts is never to drink out of too large a tumbler. Taking it in moderation, the fluid assists in dissolving the solids, instead of setting them floating, and sluicing them all before it, as is inevitably the case when a so-called hearty draught is taken. Effect of Tea on the Skin. If you drop a few drops of strong tea upon a piece of iron, a knife blade, for instance, the tannate of iron is formed, which is black. If you mix with iron filings or pulverized iron, you can make a fair article of ink. If you mix it with fresh human blood it forms with the iron of the blood the tannate of iron. Take human skin and let it soak for a time in strong tea, and it will become leather. Now, when W6 remember that the liquids which enter the stomach are rapidly absorbed by the veins and absorbents of the stomach, and enter into the circulation aud are thrown out in the system by the skin, respiration and kidneys, it is probable that a drink so common as tea, and so abundantly used, will have somo effect. Can it be possible that tannin, introduced with eo much liquid producing perspiration, will have no effect upon the skin ? Look at the tea drinkers of Russia, the Chinese, and the old women of America, who have so long continued the habit of drinking strong tea. Are they not dark colored and leather skinned ? When J U Ullg VUDJ VT Ui rj x ttll cuui H?w he Changed his Subject. A new minister who arrived in one of the circuits of Illinois, the other Sunday, announced as the subject of his first discourse: " Woman, her history and sphere." " Eve was a most beautiful woman," he proceeded, " aud doubtless as tender and helpful to her husband as any of the good wives of to day." " Yes," called out a grizzly backwoodsman, getting up" and going out, " we all know how she helped him 'boat the fall work!" The preacher immediately dropped the subject of " woman and Uer sphere," but being an Englishman, was enabled to proceed with one much more adapted to the locality, namely: "Agar in the wilderness."

Mr. Peter Banta, a ship joiner, fifty- 1 one years of age, living in Brooklyn, N. : T., received a compound fracture of the leg July 3d, 1860. The leg is an inch and a quarter short. The day of the injury he took one ounce of elixir of opium to stop the intense pain. He gradnally increased the dose till he took three ounces a day. After the leg was well he oontinuod it for about three years and a half, when he commenced 1 taking sulphate of morphine, twenty- j six grains a day, one hundred and eighty grains a week, or six hundred grains a month. Has taken twenty grains at a dose, and frequently tlvV.y u day. ; Eight years ago he attended to reform, ; and stopped its use, which made him so delirious that his physicians and friends feared he would die if he continued to do without it. He then renewed the habit. with occasional seasons of nartial reformation, which were uniformly followed by great distress, delirium, and such dangerous indications that he soon relapsea into his old habit. When the special religious services were held at tho Hippodroma, in New York, last March, he attended, and went into tho inquiry-room, where he was urged to discontinue the habit and become a Christian. Wan made the subject of prayer, and great solicitude was manifested in his behalf by Mr. Moody and others. On the thirteenth of March he , took the last dose, and was taken to a . placo away from his family, whore he , could be properly cared for, and seen by thoso who had become so deeply interested in his welfare. From Monday, j the thirteenth, till Wednesday, ho was comfortable, the following three days he was delirious, more or less, anft*felt faint at times, then chilly, and had other , symptoms indicating nervous prostra- ' tion. After that he improved, and went home in three weeks. He ha* gained in flesh and strength, and has improved in every respect. During sixteen years he has spent $2,800 for opium. He has now lived without it nearly six months, i and has no desire to take it again ; and wishes it to be known that he believes he has been saved through the agency of divine grace. The case illlnstrates the tolerance which the system may acquire for this drng. One grain of morphine is equal to eight grains of opium. Twenty-five drops of elixir of opium is equal to one grain of opium. Four grains of opium has produced death. It is remarkable, and worthy of notice, as it may induce those who are addioted to the habit to reform. A Soldier of Fortune. A Scotch soldier of fortune, Henry Islop Mclvar, a native of Edinburgh, is serving with the Servians. He has i fought in four' continents in twenty 1 years, almost always on the side of the smallest numbers. He volunteered dur- , ing the* Indian mutiny and gained a I medal; f^b'ght under Garibaldi in 1859, under Lee in 1861, for tlie Mexicans at the close of the civil war, with a little Indian skirmishing in Texas; served in the Argentine republic, where he became : a colonel; was in the Cretan rebellion; \ served in Greece ngainst the brigands; ; got captured while filibustering in Onba, , Vmf. wanf. f.n P.mnif. xtIiata Via , y " ?oj r ~ j had a cavalry command; came back to fight tinder Faidherbe against, the Germans, and next turned up in Paris as a Communard; last of all, went to the Herzegovina as correspondent for the Hour, and volunteered as a leader of Servian irregulars. A Noted Family. Israel Washburn, who died in Livermore, Me., in the HuHy-secon.! yf,?r nf his age, was born in Rayn ham, Masa., November 18. 1783. In 1812 he married Martha Bt-njamin, of Livermoro, eleven children beiug born of tbo union. Of these the following nine still survive : Ex-Governor Washburn, of Portland ; Minister Washburn, of Pari*; Cadwalader 0. Washburn, ex-governor of Wisconsin; Charles Washburn, late minister to Paraguay; William D. Washburn, of Minnesota; Algernon 8. Washburn, of Hallowell; Captain Samuel B. Washburn, of Livermore; Mrs. Martha Stephenson, of tfalena, aud j Mrs. Caroline A. Holmes, of Minne- t apolis. t \ Presence of Mind. c At a fire in a provincial town fhe * goods in the burniug sht-p had to be i cast into tho street, and ns a matter of course, the night being dark, tho articles were disappearing rapidly. A police- ? man, observing a man in the act of pick- I ing np a fine cheese, madj his wny 1 through tho crowd aud stationed him- j, self behind so as to prevent any escipc. a The man rose with the cheese in his hands and was preparing to decamp, but 1 on beholding the policeman he suddenly changed his mind, and placed tho cheese in the policeman's arms, remark- J ing, as did so : " Tkf re, you had better (j take care of that, or some one will be a walking off with it." p H It was the wife of a ragged bummer who said, at midnight : " It is navortoo late to mend." A They Are Giants. There is now on exhibition perhaps the most remarkable conple in the 1 world?a man and woman who are 1 giants in stature. They are Mr. and ] Mrs. M. V. Bates, whose home is now 1 iu Seville, Medina oonnty, Ohio. They < are cach^even feet eleven and one ha.i inches in height, the hnsband weighing 1 478 pounds, while the wife weighs 413 pounds. The common sized visitor, when placed between them, feels very j much as Qnlliver must have felt when ho fell among the giants. j Mr., or Oapt. Bates, as he is oalled, is 1 a finely proportioned man, of ruddy, healthy looking complexion, straight and military looking in his regimentals. His immense stature is not so noticeable as that of his wife, who seems almost awkward somehow on aooonnt of ! her length, she being actually taller ror ' a woman than he is for a man. They are evidently people who, if not so wonderfully tall, would be considered commonplace. They are intelligent, however, and j the lady especially feels the awkwardness of her position as the object of the ouriosity and open mouthed wonder of ! the multitude. In an interesting con- ; versation with our reporter, she showed openly her dislike of the life she is leading, and her longing to return to her home in Ohio. Their home, by the j way, was one built and furnished especially for them. The oeilings are i twelve and one-half feet high, and no ! doorway is less than eight and one-half j feet high. 0/ oourse they find the hotel ; accommodations unsuitable to them wherever they go. as the doorways are so low and the beds so short. One of the strangest facts about their History is unao iney were me cuuareu ux : common people. Mrs. Bates' father was only five feet four inches in height, while her mother was only a common sized woman. Her brothers and sisters are of no remarkable height. Capt. Bates' father was six feet two inches in 1 height?a tall man, but a dwarf, compared with his son. Hates is now 1 twenty^ nine years of age. He is a native of Letcher oounty, Kentucky. His wife is a Nova Sootian, twenty-seven 1 vears of age. They were married in J London, England, while traveling in ] that country on exhibition. ' i Killed by Cannibals. The schooner Danoing Wave arrived ; it Sydney, Australia, from the Solomon ; group, July 4, with tho news of a massacre that had been perpetrated by the ! South sea natives, Capt. Harrison and ill hands, excepting one, on board the Danoing Wave, having been murdered. ; On the twenty-third of April last the ; Danoing Wave called at Florida island to ' ? i ? n ? 1 "VT_ Dorarn native laDor ior Domerset. natives were engaged and brought on board, and there were also others who liad reoeived tomahawks and other artioles from the captain in barter. Without warning, the natives rose upon the | crew, attacking them with tomahawks. Oapt. Harrison was almost instantly killed, together with some of his crew, while the chief officer and steward, after being wounded, reached the cabin, where they shot themselves. A seaman named Broad (or Board) jumped overboard and got to Sayau, forty miles off, in a boat, when the vessel was recovered by the orew of the bark Sydney, and it was then found that the natives had plundered her. It is said that the natives took two heads and one body ashore. Broad, before escaping, shot several of his assailants, and several natives from another island, engaged on board, were also killed. - , Subsequent to the receipt of this intelligence Commodore Hoskins received a communication from Consul Layard, at Noumea, dated June 17, to the effect that he had just heard from Capt. Lind, owner of the Laura Lind, that he fell in with the Bev. Mr. Inglis, in the missionary vessel Dayspring, who reported that an English vessel from Queensland had ran ashore at Tanna, at a place called Yagoos,' that the crew fired at the ra tives, who attacked them in torn, burned . the vessel, then killed and ate the crew. Capt. Lind had been in Port [Resolution, < and he says that all the natives who came in agreed as to the destruction of the vessel and her crew. The Eastern War. , Both the Turks and the Servians, says 1 the New York Sun, have displayed immense vigor, during the present war, in keeping newspaper correspondents away i from their armies. Both sides have ' tilled the world with contradictory falsehoods, through their official reports, , about the operations and successes of their troops in the field. These reports sent out from Constantinople and Belgrade have become the laughing stock of mankind. Though marked with the official D Willi JJ ill kJULU UiOCD, VU.UJ OlO U-UA T t lOUi" ly discredited.

" * N-^v So Old. \ Dobbs (who is a jolly old bachelor) and a bright young lady acquaintance were bantering each vother about marriage. "Oh," said she, "you'll get married one of these days, I know ; and you'd have me now if I would wait for you." "You'd have to wait until my H<vond childhood, then," said Dobbs. " Well, I shouldn't have loiig to wait," was the fuick repartee from the lady.
