The famous Regent itself was once stolen from the Tuileries. On the morning of September 17, 1791, Monsieur Sargent t and the two other Commissioners of the > Paris Commune perceived that some time [& during the night robbers had made their p way in by scaling the colonnade from the 5 6ide of the Place Louis XV. aud through ^ a window in that direction. Having by this means obtained access to the great halls of the Garde Meuble, they had torn off the seals without forcing the lock, carried away the enormous treasures contained in the cabinets aud vanished without leaving any other trace of their presence. Several suspects were arrested, but were released after a protracted inquiry. An anonymous letter was addressed to the Commune, stating that t some of the stolen jewels would be found in a ditch ia the Allee des Veuves, Charaps-Elysces. M.

A curious observation regarding hailstorms has been brought before the Swiss Geographical Society at Geneva by Ilerr Hiniker, the Chief Forester of Aargau , Cauton. lie maintains that hail-storms do not occur where there are forests, and citcs the case of a small chain of mountains in the south of Aaragau, known as ths "Lindenberge," which, in their normal state, are completely covered with trees. About twenty-five years ago the forest was felled in two places, leaving wide gaps across the valleys and over the range, and immediately afterwards the valleys were visited by L devastating hail-storms. Five or six | years later the larger of the two gaps jf was planted with firs, and since that I time not a siugle hail-storm has been re- j ported in that portion of the range, or in me vaitev ucrjw, wane luriuer uii, in the vicinity of the other gap in the forest, they still occur every year.

GOOD MODE Fori KILLING POULTRY.

POST MORTEM EXAMINATION OF ANIMALS. In makiug a post mortem examination of an animal the greatest care should be exercised. No one should attempt this work who has the slightest sore, 01 abrasion of the skin, on his hands, and care must be taken by the operator not to inflict any wound upon himself while cuiudl, me carcass. lueseruics nre ijui only to be observed in cases of animals which have died of virulent diseases, but also where the causes of death have been obscure. Neglcct of these precautions has sometimes caused violent inflammations, and in not a few cases has cost the life of the operator. A recent case, which resulted fatally, was that of a Mr. "Webster, a noted breeder of Galloway cattle in Scotland, who examined the body of a calf which had died from anthrax, or ''blackleg."

FIELD PEAS FOR ORCHARDS. The experiments related by Professoi Caldwell, of Cornell University, showing that common peas absorb nitrogen from the air, suggest the advisability of sowing peas rather than other and more exhaustive grains in orchards. It has long been known that a pea stubble made an excellert preparation for wheat, particularly if fed down and the vines after the peas are eaten are plowed under. The soil is undoubtedly made richer by such a proccss, and if sowr with some winter grain the fertility is prevented from being washed away bj vo?r*p on Aire T?ai' a o a wnr ;aiuo tiuu ouuno. xvi VIVUCUUQ wit ptu has great advantages over clover, as il requires the soil to be plowed in th< spring and kept pliable all summer.

Asparagus for a domestic garden maj be planted as soon as the ground can be wnrlcprl nnrl in <hi? xrnr In i< well covered with manure, which i{ turned uuder as deeply as possible by the plow or spade. Spade cultivation is preferable for all garden work. After raking the surface smooth, the ground i: marked out three feet apart, and trenches are dug eighteen iuches deep and wide. The eai th dug out is returned with plentj of manure or rich compost well mixed with it for a foot, when the roots, one year old, to be proem ed of the seed stores, are spread out eighteen inches part and ccrered with soil. This will leave a slight ridge where the plants arc set. The land is to be kept clear ol weeds, but may be planted between the rows with dwarf peas or beans or onions the first year. The second year a few forward shoots may be cut, the third year some be taken, and after that the ground will bear a full crop. About fifty plants can thus be set in a square rod, and four square rods will afford c fair supply for a 6mall family.

I will send you an easy and quick waj of doing up a horse's tail in muddj weather, says a correspondent. First, take the tail in the left hand: with the riirlit hand take hold at the upper tnd of a small bunch of hair, aboul eight or ten inches long; then select another bunch of the very longest hair it the tail, about the size of a man's finger. "With both hands twist what is left in the left hand three or four times to the right: then with the right hand put it undei and catch it with the left hand, and hold it till you take the long bunch or braid with the right hand and twist around, 01 wind around once or twice, according tc the length of the hair, from the opposite direction. Then take the end of it, witb what you have in your left hand and the short bunch; twist all together in a hard twist, double it and find the band of-thc braid that you wound rouud the tail, aud stick it under twice. After a little practice any farmer, bj observing the above rule, can do up hi; horse's tail anywhere, on the road or it the stable, in two or three miuutes, with out strings or ribbons, aud it will staj till taken down. I have never seen 01 heard of a better and quicker way. I go: it from a French stage driver.?Fum and Fireside. EHEEDIXG MORE FOIi MUTTON. Oceof the advantages in keeping shec-f that should not be iost sight of, writes ai Oaio farmer, is that the farm on wh'cl they are kept will be constantly increas jug in fertility at a greater rate than an other, similiarly situated, without sheep By allowing sheep to run on poor grount where the pasturage is scant there will b( in a few years a quite marked improve meut in the quantity and luxuriance o: the gra?ses, arising lrom their 'distribu lion of manure, in which all portions o u field used by them will receive a lik< share. Care must be taken, however not to pasture too closely in a hot auc dry season. Then they are great wcei killers. But no farmer should allow hi; sheep to run in woods or pastures a; ; season wliQn their wool will gather burrs, unless be has first killed ail the burr bearing n eeds before the burrs have formed. I look for a constant improve merit in the sheep-raising industry when ever farmers breed for jjood carcasses am: a market from the butchers, rather that exclusively for wool. The demand foi mutton and lambs is constantly increas. ing and, by catering to it, we can compensate ourselves for the moderate prices received for wool.

At this season it is certainly a very acceptable relish with meat, if it is perfectly fresh and properly grated. A horseradish sauce is also delicious. Begin by making a cream or Bechamcl saucc by stirring two even tablespoonfnls of flour into two liberal tablcspoonfuls of butter melted in a saucepan and adding a pint and a half of milk. Stir the sauce till it boils, then draw it to the back of the stove, and season it with salt and let it simmer for tfn minutes. When it is ready add two tablcspoonfuls of pickled horseradish drained thoroughly Irom the vinegar, a saltspoonful of sugar, and half a saltspoonful of cayenne. Let the sauce cook slowly for ten minutes, and then serve it with a fine broiled beefsteak or a brace of mutton chops. If it is too thick, thin it with hot cream.?Neto York Tribune. DISH WASHING MADE XICE. While we are on this vulgar, but most highly respectable topic, let me say to those ladies who do themselves the honor of attending to their own housework, and consequently have it done by ladies as to ladies' taste, ttiat tnere is no neea of spoiling hands by ever so much dish washing if the right care is taken. It is tbe scalding water, the hard water, bad soap and hasty half drying which makes fcands coarse. A little soda, half a teaspoonful or less to a gallon of water warm enough to heat the china well, but not parboil the hands, and dccent soap, not the strong kitchen bar, which ruins skin wherever it touches, still less as some would-be refined women advise toilet soap for this operation. The notion of sccntcd soap in dishwashing would bar the use of it forever from most toilets. The white cotton oil soaps, in which we are sure of clean oil, and no more alkali than is needed and which sell as cheaply ar any, should be used for china and light washing. All stronger cleansing should be managed with a mop, with fift/mn tn /McrVifprm innhes lontr.

COLORING KEC1PE3. In using the following recipes, says Farm and Fireside, ren. ember that the goods should always be wet in hot soapsuds before they are put in the dye. The dyes should be thoroughly dissolved and hot. Constantly stir the goods, liftiDg them up to the air and turning them over. Brown?To five pounds of goods allow one pound of catechu and two ounces of alum dissolved in sufficient hot water to wet the goods. Put this in a tin boiler on the stove, and when it is boiling hot, put in the goods and remove it from the stove, nave reaay xour ounces of bi-chromate of potash dissolved in hot water in a wooden pail. Drain the goods from the catchu and dip them into the bi-chromate of potash, then b.ick into the catchu again. Proceed in this way, dipping into each alternately until the required shade is produced. This does equally well on cotton, wool or silk. Blue (on cotton)?Dissolve four ounces of copperas in three or four gallons of water. Soak the goods thoroughly in this and then drain and transfer to a solution of two ounces of prussiate of potash in the same quantity of water. Lift the goods from this and put them to drain; then add to the prussiate of potash solution one-half ounce of oil of vitricl, being careful to pour in a few drops only at a time; stir thoroughly, return the goods, and as soon as of the desired shade, rinse them in clear water and dry. Enough for five pounds. Yellow (on cotton)?Dissolve one pound of sugar of lead in enough water to thoroughly saturate the goods, and one-half pouud of bi-chromate of potash in the same quantity of water in a separate vessel. Dip the goods well and drain in each alternately until the desired shade is secured; then rinse and dry. If an orange color is desired, dip the yellow rugs in strong, hot lime water before rinsing. Green (on cotton)?First color blue, and then dip in the yellow coloring. Turkey-Ked (on cotton)?For four pounds of cloth take one pound of sumac in enough soft water to cover the cloth in a tub; soak over night, ring out and rinse in soit water, rase two ounces of muriate of tin in clear, soft water; putin the cloth and let it remain fifteen minutes. Put three pounds of bur-wood in cold, soft water iu a boiler, on the stove; when nearly to u boil, partly cool, then put in the cloih and boil one hour.
