' There's nobody here for him to marry?only fac- j P. tory cirls, and Colonel Copley's six j g' daughters, tii? youngest of whom is three-and twenty, to select from.' p The green eyes scintillated sharply. ' 4>Why shouldn't he marry either you |. or me, Felicia Foxe?' a#ed Mrs. Brush-1 f. by. | g Miss Foxe gave a sort of gasp, as if [ k, she had attempted to ^wallow some j " morsel too large for her. j tc ' Why, he ain't thirty!' said she. j ' \eitlier am I,' said Mrs. Brushby. I 4 Now, Cornelia Brush by, t J iere ain't j no sort of use coming that ; ameover . me,' said Miss Foxe, f:.irly aroused at ' last into antagonism. ' Tou was eight-1 and-twenty when yon married Brushby, ; and he's been dead and buried these ten ; good years!' Mrs. Brushby laughed. ' Felica,' said she,' you're worse than n, an old family record. Don't you see. tin re's people older than their years, and p people younger? I'm one of the latter; p and I don't see why I can't marry Mr. " Selwyn, if once I make up my mind to i r do it.' ! g So Mrs. Brushby took up the three a pounds of brown stocking yarn that she 0 liad been buy ing at Felicia Foxe's thread- 'u and-needlc store, and went home. r Her niece, a tall, pale girl, with lus- j tor!ess yoilow hair, like braids of dead p uold. a transparently pale skin and sad y hazel eyes, was setting the table. n 4 How slow you are, Clara!' said Mrs. b Brusliby, s lapriish'y. 41 supposed, of f< course, tea wo ild be all ready by the g time 1 came b:u:k.' b 41 am sorry for the delay, aunt,' said Clara, timidly: 4 but I was detained at fi the factory.

( Cone had arrived, a homeless orphan ir with all her worjdjy belongings packed a * in a shabby little leather traveling bag at Mrs. Brush hy's door, when the even- o ing stage rolled up the street. -w * Aunt,' she saia, trying to repress the > rising sob in her throat, 'will you give f< me a home ? I am your sister's orphan p daughter.' tl Mrs. Rrushby had received her as d cordially as a tish might have done. c 41 suppose you'll have to stay,' said p Mrs. Brushly, surlily. * But 1 didn't j die and leave a swarm of orphans for v my sisters to take care of. Oh, yes, you s can stAy, and per Laps I can find you a v situatio.n as dressmaker's apprentice or b shop girl, somewhere! Bedause. of 41 course, no one can expect me to keep a great girl iike you for nothing.' f Upon which Clara bestirred herself a actively, and had been heartily thank- t ful to obtain n place in the pin factory, r in the glen below the village, where s half a Jiundred other Dale-faced opera- t< tives worked for a scanty livelihood t and Mrs. Brush by charged her a high tprice for board, and got a servant-maid's d work out of her before and after hours l into the bargain. * ' I should like to go to church, aunt,' 1 Clara had ventured to say one Sunday fi morning, when the maples in the glen d were all biazing in their autumn colors, il and tLo crisp autumn sunshine turned a the village spires to gold. ij 'That's just like your sel6shnejs, ? Clara Cone!' said Mrs. Brushby, acidly. t< 'And let me stay at Home; for, of course. one of us must remain, to see that we're f< no: by tramps, and to cook the h <linn?-r.' # il ' But couldn't I go in the evening, | s aunt?' 'Certainly not!'said Mrs. Brushby,, with emphasis. I belong to the " Re-' becca Band." which always meets in the ! ^ chapel of Sunday evenings, and Deacon j y Halstead call for me in his box-wagon. I p II you feel so piously inclined,' with a I j ::overt sneer, 'you can read your prayer-1 ^ book at home.' | a And so ClaraCcne found herself grad- j ^ uaily degenerating into the merest I a household drudge, under heraunt's iron j o rul?. She went nowhere and saw no- I h bodv.- ; d .VrMtjT Mrs. Brushby would scorn- j h fuily remark, when a neighbor chanced i s to hazard an opinion concerning her j fi niece. 'Nonsense! Just exactly like | r a colorless celery-sprout that has grown ! b in the cellar?and never a word to say j <? forherseh!' a And if. by any chance, Clara was in- j c! vited to join in any of the neighborhood tl festivities, Mrs. Brushby m.u.v haste to j r deiine for her. i p 'Clara never goes out,'said she. 'She j t h:is no taste for such things, poor dear.' | r Until people bc?an actuall5to believe I p that Clara Cone was either a recluse or i '1 nn idiot. c The pale factorv-girl had just taken t thb tea-pot off the Ptove. upon this j i ospeoial evening, when Mj*s.

' Oh, Clara,' said Mrs. Brushby, simering?'Clara wishes to be excused, j zlarasees no company.

'Leave the j I Duse, Miss Cone, and I will see that a j] ;fuge is provided for you at the home " f Miss Foxe.' * Mrs. Brushby stood startled and dis- 1 laved. Clara Cone, pale and silent, 1 tid her hand upon the minister's 9 ffered arm, and left the room and the J8 ouse. ? Honest Miss Foxe was amazed when 1 lara Cone took refuge with her. J Well,' she declared. 'I always knew ' J ri li. TJ ? 11 j<it v/urntnin, uiusiiuj mto <* i . rinder, but I did suppose she had some 11 hristian decency about her.

Mr. Selwyn had become a ?eply interested in the pale, clear-eyed r ctory girl, and, before the wild roses c tossomed along the verge of the woods, f ie parsonage had a mistress, and Mr. ? ;lwyn no longer came under the head j f ' unmarried clergymen.' j t Mrs. Brushby's tender aspirations i <3 ere blighted in the bud; but a bald- 8 jaded old bachelor bought the fao- c >ry just about that time, and Mrs. j rushby transferred her attentions to -] ip nnweomer?and. with many nods t id winks, sb" gives the eeneral public | i understand that Mr. Selwyn is her j jected lover.

Frayne combination were laying in a sensational piece called Mardo, the Hunter." In tbe fifth not lardo is accused in the presence of the Irard I)uke Alexis of being a Nihilist, nd he offers to produce from the collar fa lion a paper whioh will prove hip inocence. To make the play more ealistic and sensational a lion named <Tero has been procured from Foreaugh's menagerie, and during the rhole play up to the time of his appear - nee in the scene he was kept in his cage ehind the scenery. He remained per. ?ctly quiet at first, but as firearms bean to be discharged on the stage he eeame excited and growled angrily. When the curtain was raised for act fth the center of the stage was occuied by a sloping platform about six ;et high. There was no protection on ither side, but in the front a wooden liling ran up about four feet above the oards. Daring the first part of the act 11 this was hidden from view by a curlin, but when the <-urtain was dropped !ero bounded from behind the scenes rith a swift movemfnt and laid down rith his nose between the wooden bars, 'he animal was securely fastened by iree heavy chains which communicated rith his cage behind the scene, but iese were invisible to the audience, rho, supposing that Nero was loose, beered vehemently. The lion " sniffed " t the noisp. but lay quiet, while Mardo Frank I. Frayne} advance" to the un- f lclosed side, took off his leather collar j nd unfolded the paper it contained. g The curtain went down amid vocifer-1 us applause. The stage at this moment' ras crowded with actors and actresses, j Tero was led quietlv to his cage, ten I c ?et behind, by W. Thompson, ot Fore- j ( angles, who had him in charge during ! 1 he day. Just at this moment Frayne's | i og Jack, a large and ferocious-looking ; s reature, came upon the stage and ap-1 c roached the lion's cage. As soon as ! i Jero beheld Jack.he rose to his feet and ' i rith a roar bit at one of the bars, which j i napped as though it had been made of | c rooa. Almost immediately a second ' j iar was broken, and Frayne cried out: j t 'My God! the lion's getting out!" 1 1 Instantly there was a general rush J ( rom the stage. Several of the actors ! t nd actresses rushed into the street in i l heir stage costumes, and two women < an upstairs, opened the window and 1 creamed for help. One of the men fled i [> the box office in the lobby of the 1 L J *V* A /3/\/\n twif K r> I i UniUT Itnu u;u uu.1lliu IUU UWVS1 nr Uii (+ | | able. The dot; himself stood on the 11 efensive, hut before the lion had had ! i ime to snap the third bar, which I j rould have given him liberty, Keeper ! ] 'hompson secured the chain which was j; istened around the animal's neck, ana. | ' assise it through one of the bars at j s he end, drew it toward himself with \ 11 bis might, at the same time winding |' ; around his arm. By this^ means ; < lero's head was held so tight that his < anguc protruded from his mouth. A ;w moments in this position was enough >r Nero, who laid down and permitted is cage and himself to be removed to ;s proper position in the rear of the tage. A Wonderful Dinner. A magnificent dinner was that which i ras given on February 16, 1476. in laples, by Benedetto Silutati, of Flornce, to the sons of the Neapolitan Kine ; ] 'erante. As a preliminarc course there 1 fere little gilded cakes of pine kernels, 11 nd small mnjolica bowls, with some 1 ind of fancy preparation of milk. Then 11 Fimeeight silver platters, with gelatine ; f capon's breast, ornamented with j i eraldic devices, the dish lor the mast j1 istinguislied guest, the Duke of Cala- {: ria, having a fountain in the middle j (lowering a spray of orange water. The !, rst part ol the m^al consisted of twelve | ourses of meats, including venison,veal, | iam. pheasants, partridges, eapons, hiekens and bJanc-mangtf; at the close {Treat silver dish was placed before the I uke, and when the cover was raised, a lock of birds flew up. On two enor-; nous platters ?tood two peacocks, ap- j laivntlv alivp. and with tails spread; in j heir oeaks they held burning periumcd | isence, and <m their breasts, were i :ii-n? i-iKWino wit.h thr> duke's arms. ! i ncu , ...... ^ - ?J The second division consisted of nine ourses,various sweet dishes, tarts, mar;ipan. and litflit ornamental cakes, with lippokras, a kind of spiced wine. There vere fifteen kinds of wine, mostly native Italian and Sicilian. At the close of the neal the guests washed their hands in jerfumed water, and, after the removal >f the cloth, a mound of preen twigs with costly essences was placed on the able, the perfume of which filled the oom. Daring and after the meal there I vas music and a pantomime. After an | liour's pause there wa? a dessert of confectionery, served in dishes of silver, with ornamented covers of sugar and wax. . * I I II !! ! III - -T FARM, (xAlil)EN AND HOUSEHOLD nrlntcs for the Siok. In speaking of the annoying thirs for fever patients, Dr. H. H. Kane ii liis "Sick Room," says: Thirst is : rery prominent and annoying sympton af fever, and one that requires a littl ;onsideration. Plain water, when takei seyond a certain amount, is ver; ipt to disor der the stomach and bowels ?specially in fevers where much fluii md but little solid food is taken Enough water to quench the thirs tvoula certainly be enough in mos ases to disorder the digestion,or rather 7urther disorder it, and so important i lie little that remains of this functioi .hat we cannot afford to abuse it. Smal - ieces of ice held in the mouth, and al owed to dissolve, sometimes answe he purpose, but not in the majority o ases. Up to a certain point, the actioi >f water taken internally, in fevers, i: ;xcellent; aside from allaying irritatioi jy quenching thirst, it flushes the kid \eys, carrying off much of the effeti nateri.-fl produced by the high tempera ure. It has been found that the addi ion of certain substances to watei rreatly increases its power to quencl hirst. This is especially the ease witl One HroMim r>F lixrHrnnhlnrir tciri added to a quart ot water will giv< t sufficient acidity to accomplish the lesired purpose, while at the same time t adds to its pleasantness, and some' imes relieves nausea. The uss of acids n fevers is highly commended by some LUthors, and this is, I think, the best ray in which to administer them, rhe same amount of sulphurous acid nay be added to a quart of water wher he bowels are loose or there is a tenancy that way. In these cases acidu? HU'U ouriuy Win.tr is piL'iisimu auu uum< 3hing. The same may be said of toasl rater.' In constipation, oatmeal watei aay be used in the same manner. A ew tamarinds addea to a glass of watei rill often fissauee thirst and open th< lowels gently. Dr. Rineer, speaking on this subject, ays: Although, perhaps,not strictlj elevant to our present subject, a fe^ emarks may be made here convenient^ n the drinks best suited to fever pa ients. To them, thirst is most impor ant and distressing, often causing mucl estlessness and irritability, these ir heir turn often increasing the fever ["he urgent thirst must therefore be al ayed, but if left to themselves to sati ite tlieir craving, patients will alway Irink to excess, which is very liable t( lisarrange the stomach, impair diges ion, produce flatulence and even diar hea. Theory and experience botl how that drinks, made slightly bitte: uid somewhat acid, slake thirst moB iffectually. A weak infusion of cascar 11a or orange peel, acidulated slighth vith hydrochloric acid, was, witf graves, of Dublin, a favorite thirst-al aying drink for fever patients. Suck ng ice is very grateful. Sweet fruits iltnoueh at first agreeable and refresh ng, must be taken with c: re and mod iration, for they often give rise to i lisaffreeable taste, and are apt to pro luce flatulence and diarrhea. Currants and Their Cultivation. The first requisite is, not wetness, bu .bundant and continuous moisture. Soi laturally deficient in this, and whicl annot be made drouth-resisting by deep lowing and cultivation, is not aduptec o the currant. Because the currant ii ound wild in bogs it does not follow hat it can be grown successfully in un Irained swamps. It will do better ir uch places than on cry, gravelly knolls ir on thin light soils, but our fine civil zed varieties need civilized conditions die well-drained swamp may becom< he very best of currant fields; an( lamp, heavy land that is capable o leep. thorough cultivation should' b< elected if possible.- When such is no o be had, then by deep plowing, sub lotting, by abundant mulch around tin >lants throughout the summer, and b] >ccasional waterings in the garden :ounteracting the effects of lightness an< irvness of the soil, skill can go far it naking good nature's deficiencies. Next to depth of soil and moisture thi :urrant requires fertility. It is justh railed one of the " gross feeders," am s not particular as to the quality of it ood so that it is abundant. I woulc (till suggest, however, that it be fed ac jording to its nature with heavy com josts in which muck, leaf-mold, am ;he cleanings of the cow-stable an argely present. Wood-ashes and bone rical are also most excellent. If stabL >r other light manures must bt> used, 1 would suggest that they be scatterec iberally on the surface in the fall 01 ?arly spring, and gradually worked ii ajicultivation. Thus used, their ligh leating qualities will do no harm, am ;hey will keep the surface mellow and iherefore, moist. The shadowy northern haunts of th< vjld currant also suggest that it wil alter and fail under the southern sun ind this is true. As we pass througi ,he Middle States we find it difii :ult to make even the hardy white am ed Dutch varieties thrive, and a poin s at last reached where the bushes losi heir leaves in the hot season and die from the latitude of New York south ;herefore, increasing effort should b( nade to supply the currants' constitu ional need by giving partial sliad' imong pear or widely set apple trees >r, better still, by planting on th lorthern side of fences, buildings, etc iy giving cool, half-shady exposures ii noist land, the culture of the curran :an be extended far to the South 'specially in the high mountain regions 2ven well to the North it is unprofit ihle when grown on light, thin, poo and. unless it receives liberal am killful culture.?E. P. Roe, in Bcribner Fertilizer* fSr Potatoes. As a general thing I try to avoid th lirect application of either manures o :ommercial fertilizers for potatoes, be ieving they have a tendency to caus ust or blight on the tops or vines, am ire more or less the. cause of either ro >r scab on the tuoers. If a piece of lam s not rich enough I would manure i .vith previous crops to get its conditio] id to the desired standard. If a turf o jlover lot were to be followed witl jotatoes I would spread manure on th ;urf in the fall before; or, if it was fal ow or stubble ground, I would sow ry jr oats in August or first of September :o plow under as green manuring; o nanunng in tne spring mucn as on ;hooses. and plant to corn one yern Allowed with potatoes the next, whic] nakes a very pood seed-bed for them [f manure is to be used directly for tb ootato crop, care should be taken tba it is well rotted before using, whic] makes it safer. As for using nshes o phosphates in the hill when plantin potatoes, one might about as well, a your correspondent, ?T. D. Tate, sayj "put them before hungry swine.1' seldom use them: preferring, as above i previous enricmne of the land; bu when used cover the seed lightly, the scatter the ashes over the hill, the :over all with shovel plow.?&. Ivei /"Vv.,*,/.. at v l/OffrOC't/ i-i' * Old-Time Superstitions. In 1174 the May bug became ver; trouoiesome in the neighborhood c Berne, Switzerland, and the people, afte trying in vain all other means, calle upon the bishop of Lausanna, wh solemnly excommunicated the insect a "an irrational, imperfect creatuw whose kind was never inclosed i: Noah's ark." The bugs were warned t disappear in six days, or if they did nol to apoear for trial at Wivelsburg o: the'sixth day at one o'clock. Neithe command was oheyed, as a contcra porary chronicle ?nys, "because ot ou 3ins." In the Tyrol, in 1510-20, a civi 3uit was actually begun against th Beld-rats! One Simon Fliss, a peasant entered a formal complaint before th judge. William of Hasslingcn, that sai field-rats were doing great damage i his parish. Fliss chose Schwarz Mini as his attorney, and the court showe its fine sense of" justice by naming Han Gririebner to defend the cause of th rats. But the witnesses were all on tb side of the plaintiff, and the decisio was rendered as follows: " After ac eusation and defense, after statemer ond nffpr flnp rnr sicleration of ail that pertains to justici it is by this sentence determined Iht those noxious animals called iield-rai must, wituin two weeks after the pr< mulgation of this judgment, depart an forever remain far aloof from the fielc and the meadows of Stilf. But if ot or several of the animala are in dclical health, or unable on account of the youth to follow them, then they sha enjoy, during further two weeks, safel and protection from everybody, ar after these two weeks depart." Wheth ihe rats recognized the authority Judge William, and emigrated obedunce to his orderB, is not statei but the probabilities are that they gai "straw bond"and appealed the caae as a great many rats do nowadays. bmhumMHI I FOB THE FATE Hit X? Fashion note*. Wh\te will be more worn than evei 1 this summer. J Soft millinery silks are used to trim e India muslins. i Narrow gathered ruffles may be used y to trim thin dresses this summer with i, good effect. i Seersucker ginghams are trimmed with open patterns of white Hamburg t embroidery. The lace cravat or "Merveilleuse ' bow " is one of the features of the dre?s | 3 of the present day. j The beads on new cut jet trimmings are hollow, which makes their weight r light and their cost heavy. I Some of the new ribbons have the 1 colors and designs of old tapestries and 3 are called Gobelin ribbons. : Only very costly fabrics, such as vel- ' . tret and brocage, can be used for dresses 2 with plain corsages, sleeves and skirts. The favorite cap for small girls is - made of bands of tucked muslin alterf nating with needle-wrought insertion, i and finished with a full lace fraise. ( J Cambric dresses for gay young girls 5 doers' or horses' heads in blue or ; brown over white grounds, and are ' trimmed with cambric Hamburg work, ; in which the prevailing color is used in i " the scallops. j New wrappers of percale or calico are i made with a yoke in the back, from which the fullness hangs in a Watteau i plait; a deep collar, square cufts and t square pockets, with a Spanish flounce . at the foot, complete these neat morning | , gowns. Handsome traveling dresses for brides ; are made of chevoit cloth in small pin* head checks, or dashes, or in stripes. . The style is the plain surtout with stitched edges, and a full round skirt, i also stitched for a border, but without a flounce. Harper's Bazar advises that brunettes J and all ladies with sallow complexions r use the ecru-tinted muslins and laces r that look as if they had been dipped in " cotfee, or else that they confine them" selves to the black neckwear, which is ! 1 always stylish and nearly always be1 coming. The bonnets from the best milliners - this year are distinguished by their quiet ] 3 appearance. Heliotrope silk, trimmed > with heliotrope, pale-tinted violets or : - lilacs, and made in the simplest, closest : - shapes, is mora fashionable than anyi thing else. Shaded ribbons are liked i r for these bonnets. t Plaited wool skirt3 of most delicate - shades are laid in clusters 01 mree:1 7 lengthwise plaits that are lapped closely i upon each other in the same space taken " usually by a single kilt plait; then peep- 1 ing from beneath this full plaiting, just ? at the edge, is a knife-plaiting of pale ! blue or red silk, of which scarcely more - than the edge is seen. 1 For girls eight or ten yars of age suits of two pieces are most used, while for very little people the French use what they call "miniatures," viz., the print cesse dress or English coat, all in one 1 piece, very slightly altered from that ! worn last season, and suitable either , for a dress for the house, or else a long } coat to be worn over a white muslin 5 dress. r An elegant French novelty for evening - dress is the Veronese; cuirass, made in l light colors and in fle?u tints, with a , white lace scarf round the hips. The - white cuirass should be trimmed with . galons of white, jet or chenille and silk 3 embroidery. These cuirasses are also 1 made in gold and silver cloth to be i worn over tulle and lace 9kirts for ball 3 dresses. t Sashes are greatly used on the chil" dren's dresses, and though not arranged 5 twice alike in front, they invariably 7 end in a very large bow quite low down ' on the back. The onds of the sash are ! caught together anil made into one or 1 two great tassels either of the fabric raveled out, with shirring at the top, 5 or els? some shirred silk passementerie ^ tassels are added. 3 New skirted polonaises have the skirt 1 sewed on at the waist line (as in skirted . coats) in all the parts except the two . middle back breadths; these remain ini tact their full length, are very slightly ? draped, and are trimmed up their side . seams by a border. Two large buttons e define the waist in the back, and the [ fronts are buttoned their entire length, i or else are drawn back somewhat in : panier fashion. i Among summer wraps are small t round pelerine capes made of many rows 1 of plaited black thread lacs, with jet ? insertion between the rows and jet fringe on the edge. A stylish novelty is the black siik scarf mantle, with its 1 Medicis ruffs of lace around the neck ? and about the shoulders; deep jet fringe 1 edges the scarf and the fronts terminate | in long pointed ends. t The new feather fan is in Spanish e style, and consists of three very long and full ostrich feathers mounted in a ' slender fan and fastened by satin ribbon ' bows. Two pale blue plumes with one ' of rose color between them make a e beautiful fan, and others are composed of two black feathers with a yellow one e in the middle. Tiiey.are worn suspended from the waist by a chatelaine i of satin ribbon of the most, conspicuous t color in the fan. ? Dresses fastened behind are made with six or eight box plaits in front from the " nesk down, though they are not sewed v further than just below the waist line. 1 The back is also box-plaited as far as | the taper of the waist, w here it is cut off, and a skirt with double or triple box e plaits is added; this skirt is merely r across the back. Wide embroidered edging is sewed to the bottom of the e plaits and up each side. Strings or white muslin are sewed in the side seame at t the waist line, aDd tied behind in a large 3 bow. t Muslin dresses are still made with a box-plaited sack shapes in front, r ami back finished with a Spanish h flounce; but others are also merely e gathered and shirred at the neck - and jusc above the deep flounce, give ing an easy, loose appearance that is '? graceful for slender children. Another r pretty feature is that of putting on a false e yoke" just above the Spanish flounce; this is trimmed on the lower edge and h up each side of the front with lace or i. edeing, and allowed to fall over the e flounce like a little basque.

The roads finally united into one, and reaching the point of junction at the same time, they walked on together. The man was carrying a large iron kettle on his back; in one hand he held the legs ot a live chicken; in the other, a cane; and he was leading a goat. They neared a dark ravine. Said the woman: " I am afraid to go through that ravine with you: it is a lonely place, and you might overpower me and kiss me by force." Said the man: "How can 1 possibly overpower you and kiss you by force, when I have this great iron kettle on my back, a cane in one hand, a live chicken in the other, and am leading this coat? I might as well be tied hand and foot." " Yes," replied the woman. " But if you should stick your cane in tVin rrrminH onH tip tmilT- irnaf. tn it. and turn the kettle bottomsicfe up and put the chicken under it, then you might wickedly kiss me in spite of my resistance." " Success to tuy ingenuity. Oh woman!" said the rejoicing man to himBelf. " I should never have thought of this or similar expedient." And when they came to the ravine, he stuck his cane into the ground and tied the goat to it, gave the chicken to the woman, saying: "Hold it while I cut some grass for the goat;" ana tnen?so runs the legend?lowering the kettle from his shoulders, he put the fowl under it, and wickedly kissed the woman, as she was afraid he would.?Chambers' Journal. A Huntsman's Tongh Yarn. James Pine, a veteran fox hunter, 3ixty-six years old, residing in Marbletown, has killed this season fourteen red foxes, one cross-bar and one gray fox. He is probably the best fox hunter in the country. He has two dogs and hunts over long stretchefl of country, ranging all over the hills of Marbletown, across the country to High Falls and up Shawangunk mountain as far as Lake Minnewaski?in fact, he shot the cross-bar fox near Paltz Point on that mountain. Mr. Pine has hunted for forty years, a portion of the time in Greene county, and for twenty-three seasons he has hunted in this county. The first year he came to Ulster county he killed forty-three foxes, though at that time,''of course, this kind of animal was more numerous than at present. Last New Year's day he killed three foxes. Mr. Pine hunts for pleasure and recreation, as he owns a nice little farm !n H-fo-rKlotvi-am Vmt. honplln hiq fm skins and in that way pays for his powder and shot. Apropos to fox hunting, there is a fox hunter in this county who tells a good story in regard to the tenacity with which foxes will cling to their lives, they in fact haying more lives than a cat. This gentleman says, and he. affirms with both hands that it is true, that one day while he was out hunting be shot a fine fox, and, as he supposed, the animal dropped dead. He went to him, and taking out his jackknife commenced to take off the pelt so he wouldn't have to carry the carcass home with him. He sfcinned it down anJf then pulled it over and gave it a yand In order to free it from the body, when the skin came off, and to the great and inexpressible astonishment of the hunter, the fox ran off at full speed, the hunter being unable in his surprise to raise the eun and shoot him. The dogs however, were after him in a jiffy, and the remarkable sight of a fox without its pelt scooting along over the crust with three hounds yelping on his track was then seon. The fox, being in light marching order, soon distanced the dogs, ana in ten minutes whs out 01 sight. A few days after the man was out hunting again for loxes. The hounds run one pretty sharply, and he passed through a ravine, ana it being a peculiarity of the fox that when he coes through a ravine he will come back tc it again, no matter how wide the circuit may be, the hunter posted himsell at this place and waited until he heard the bay of the hounds following thti track up to near where he stood. He was on the qui vive, and got a glimpse of an animal running with great speed, that had all the resemblance to a lox, only his coat seemed glossy white. The hunter never thought of the skinned fox that ran away tne any Deiore, dui supposed the wnite fur would beagreal rarity in the market, so he fired, killing the animal, and with great expectations hurried up to where he lay, and there, lo and behold! found instead of a whit< furred fox the one that he had skinned the day before, the white flesh looking like white lur in the sunlight. Seemingly the fox had not minded the lacli of his skin very much, and the flesh had become by exposure in the air almost ol the consistency of leather.?Kingstor, (N. T.) Freeman. The Invention of Money. How were the men to be brought toother who wanted each other's articles! IIow was the farmer to find a tailor whr would give him a coat in exchange for n sheep or a pack of corn? How was he tc get furniture from an upholsterer with s calf or a load of hay? The progress ol human life would have been brought tc a dead-lock. Village lite on a pettj scale, upon the system of thinjop made tc order, would have been the inevitable fate of human beings. Some contrivancc wrno imnurinriqlv called fnr to clear awa\ tiie difficulty, and thus it happened thai money was invented. It made its appearance at the very origin of the human rnce; savage* bethought themselves ol furs 01 Bkinsto make trade, the exchange of goods, possible. Their instinct revealed to them the principle of money, the principle of all instruments of exchange. They saw that the only way tc get over the perplexity was to selecl some article which every one should be willing to take in exchange for the goods which be had to Bell, and then with it buy those particular things which he required for the supply of his wants. The path for trade was-instantlj cleared for the whole human race, Money was founch forever in the form oi shat primitive period?skins. Its estence and action were discovered for all time. Furs acted as ac interposed commodity, as a eo-between: between what a seller nartec with and what he obtained" ir return, and this has been the nature o: all money down to this very hour. The skins so employed were instruments foi exchanging goods and nothing else; anc so are sovereigns and dollars and even 4xxTKo mooliinort 1U1UI 1/1 UiUUCJt X uv UJIUUUJ mi?vi>iuw4 J of division of employments was at onc< brought within the reacli of the humat race. Progress in civilization was mad( possible. The hatter and the shoe maker could make hats and shoes foi the whole town. The grocer could pile up stores in his shop for all. The manu facturer could weave cloth for the wholi community. They all relied, and theii confidence was not deceived, on theit /joods being bought with money, what ever that money happened to be, and 01 their being able in return to procur. with it whatever they required. Anc here it was that consent came in foi money, and still continues to come in All the hunters took skins for theii money by agreement, no law or forci compelled them. The skins came nat urally into use as convenient for all And so it is now. No law forces anj shopkeeper to sell his goods for coin He may prefer barter. He may affix i leg of mutton as the price of one article a pair of boots as that of another. Bu he consents to take sovereigns ant shillines, and what he does every oni else does loo. So, also, dofs the govern ment of the nation. It selects its forn of money at its own pleasure, ana ever] laborer and merchant adopts it.?Bon amy Price, in Eraser's Magazine.
