so doing, make a great deal of excellent
manure.
Curing Com /udder. ? The proper time
to cut drilled fodder. is w hen all the via L?
are failly tatreled out or in full bloom. It
may bo cut clone to the ground, wiih a
J JUg, sharp knife or aick'e. Select a dry
day, commencing early in the morning
and cutting until dinner time. As fast as
it is cut, spread it lliin along the row,
ami let it lie and take the sun until after
dinner, when the upper fide will he |?ret

fully, and leave it. on the ground until 6

hiae (fay a foot through at the! and) and
f>?L up on the but end, in stocks < f 4 .,r U
bundles each?turning one bundle upside
down, over the others, as a "capsheat."?
The next day aftar sunrise, these bundles
must be untied and the fodder spread out
again until noon, and then turned and
aiiiincd until night, as before. This may
be repotted the third day, w hich will gen

to an ordinary 2 lmrse wagon load, it
will be more highly relished by stock, and
all danger of heating obviated. Many
persons make a great mystery of curing
drill or broadcast corn fodder; but we
have always found this simple method
sure and effectual. The same plan, of
course, applies to the Chinese Sugar
Cane fodder.
Cutting up Com in the field, and using
ihe stalk and leaf for the winter feeding

Soiuo one of the Boston Kvening Tran- Jj
script's corps of reminiscences has la on ,,
telling some anecdotes about members of jj
lhe MHMachtisetts bar, and among them t(
the PicavunQ tinvls this goes I one : A
jocky once consulted Harrison f?rav Otis
in a horse case, the latter sent him a bill
of twenty dollars, for advice. The client I
expostulated, but Mr. Otis explained t<> u
him so hilly and so blandly the reason of S
such a charge?how >;o had spent years n
and ) ears in studv, an?l thousands on K
thousands in ft 11 i n himself to Ail vise on m
such mutters, that the jocky was obliged ti
to capitulate and pay the hill. Not long 1
Afterwards, Mr. Ol .? was standing in the ti
street, examining a horso that lie thought ti
of purchasing, nnd seeing his client pass- p
ing, called liiin up and arked him what n
he thought of the animal. 'I ho j?kv A
set his iAt aslant, examined him on all is
sides, pronounced his opinion on him dog- j |,
maticAllv, and then held out his hand for
a f.'f. it was Mr. Otis'* turn now to ex- h
postulate, hut it was all in vain ; our h
jockey recounted to him at what cost of ti
time and money ! c had fitted himself for si
judging horse liesh, and ended hy saying;
'Come, come, Mr. Otis, wo profi-minnal J
men must he paid ; my charge is only \
twenty dollars.' Mr. Utis appreciated the n
j< ke, and paid the till. g

WJIEN A MAN MAY KILL HIS
ASSAILANT.
A case was decided on Wednest lay |
last, bv the (JourI of Appeals til I'rank- i :
Ibrt, Kv., which settles the question as to ;
when a man who is ntlacked in the State i
of Kentucky is justified in killing his as? '
saiianU The case was from (iraysoti (Jir- i
cuit, in which Meredith had been convio- s
ted of manslaughter for the killing of one '
Ireland who attacked him, and the lower
court, charged the jury, "it Ireland as- I
sanltcd the defendant, and he had re a- ,
s< liable grounds to believe he was ill dan- 1 j
gi-r <>! sustaining great bodily htirm, or |
the lo.-x of life from such assault, if nee- .
essary to protect his life or person from ' ,
great hodilv harm, lie might kill Ireland,
it he hud no safe means of escaping.? i
1 'lit if the defendant could have safely
retreated Irom the dancer and hv that

is not excusable for I lie killing of Ireland, j
"I!.? higher c >urt however decided that
tins charge was wrong. 'J'hat the jtiiy

whether, "the defendant Ceil! 1 have safely
re!realed," that being a question to be
settled by the judgment ot the defendant
himself, ' In tin? exercise of this judgment 1
he tiiiii't aet rationally. hciiier an ae- '
lilal necessity to kilt existed or not, was a 1
o'lestion to be deci*l'd by Meredith at :
