Elephant's Revenge and Gratitude, The elephant, with a sort of hu morous jumtice, is given to rourn in juries or insults in kind. In Mala gascar, an elephan t's cornae, happen ;ing to have a cocoa nut in his band thought Ilt, out,of bravado, to break it on the animal's head. The ele. phant made no protest at tle, t'me I )ut next day, pasaing a fruit-stand, lie took a coco-nut in Isis trunk nd returned the cornao's compliment so vigorously on:the head that he kill ad him on the spot. If vindictive, tho elephant is also grateful. At Pond iohorry, a soliier who treated an elephant to a draw Af arrack every time he received his pay, found himself the worst for liquor. Whnen the guard were about to carry him off to prison, he took refuge un. Jer the elephant and fell asleep. H1is pmtector would let no one appear, md watched him carefully all night. In the mnorning, after caressing with 6is trunk, he dismissed him to settle wis h the authorities as be. lie could. Buth revenge un'd gratitude imply intelligvrce ; still more does the ap Fliotion of an unforacen expedient. X train of artiulery going to Seringa. ')itam had to cross to the ahingly bud, ,f'a river. A man who was sitting m a gun-earriage fell ; in another see aIId the wheel would have passed over iis body. An elephant walking by hte side if the carriage saw the danger 1u1d instautly, without any order fro n. is keeper, lifted the wheel fron the. Prounud, leavitg the mani uniojured.

There has been a-very long and (disasutrous season of wet weathers ip tha.t r'qgion, but bsponud tilat, the report ki fero otta - how to Keep Sweet Potatoes. On the 276h day of July, being on a visit to the mountain districts of this State, we stopped for dinner at the house of a friend and found a large dish of sweet potatoes, rich, juioy and well-flavored, on the table, It being an unusual time of year for this sueoulent vegetable, we inquired whether they were old or now, and could soaroely believe our host that they were one year old until he told us of his method of keeping thew. le has i. dry cellar, and in the suma mer months prepares a large quantity of sand, by having it thoroughly dried and put away for use. He digs his potatoes after the first frot, however slight it may be, and takes them im mediately to his cellar after epera ting the out and broken ones from the others. A layer of sand a few Inches in thickness is put in the bottom of the cellar, then a layer of potatoes a foot in thickness. Sand is thrown on. this layer, till all the interstices are illed up and it rests five inches thick on the upper surface. Then come alternate layers of potatoes and sand in regular order until the cellar is filled. A vacant place should be left on the eide of the cellnr so that the po tatoes may be taken out without bursting the m. Care should be taken never to tramp on them, as the least bruise may Induce some one to rot, which by heating will communicate the rot to the whole layer. Freezes should be guarded, against by throw ing something over the top of the cel lar in very cold weather.--A-ashville Union and Anrerican. Watering Horses. On watering teams. Mr. Joseph Harris, an agricultural writer, advo eates frequent watering of work horses as a renewer of the vigor of the atimuals. We disagree with him. We think man and beast are gener. ally watered too much. Men and horses at hard work in warm weath er perspire just in proportion to the quantity of fluids taken into the sto nauch. Frequent drinsking in warm weather, aecording to our experi ence, emasculates instead of refreshes. Some years ago, being at Cape Is land, in driving out In one of the stand-coaches of the place, on a very hot day, we asked the driver how ft was that the horses perspired so little, iille the horses of private carriages, going at a slower speed, were covered with foam, lie replied that he wa tered his horses three times a day only, though he sponged their nioutL1 frequAntly ; while the private drivers watered their horses whenever they stopped. He said, and it seemed to us very sensible, that the frequent watering of horses effected no good purposes, while it made them very uncomfortable, and lethargic. ,oran, no matter what their work was, did not iteed watering oftener than three times a day. Our experience with horses all our life is to the same ef cot.-Germantown TlJlegraph. A Hint to Parents. Nervous children suffer untold ago nies from fdar, when put to bed alone. No tongue can toll the horrors of a lonesome room 'to such children. A little, delicate boy, whom his parents was drilling to sleep alone, used to cry violently every night and his fath er would come in and whip him. Hie mistook his pertinacity for oh. stinacy, and he thought it his duty to conquer the child's will. One night lie said: , "Why do you always scream so, when you know you shall be punish' ed T' "0, father, father !" said the little fellow, "I don't miqd your whip. ping meo, if you only stny with me." The father's eyes were opened from that moment. Hie saw that a human being cannot be governed by dea4 rules, like a plant or an animnal.
