Mr. Lonnox lail his hand loving

A Remarkable firtOiin
In connection with te hi 'rible
Harper tradgedy, tlie lemington Ky.,
Press of Fridy tells a nt-remai ka,
ble dreani of one of di tiembers of
the Ilarper fumily. .I e Piese says:
"A circumsta nce ratbe'r startling inl
its xiature regaroditg t)jiai per Inur
der was inude kn-wn i . 3e' stertiny.
We weic itformod by Mr.: ra*nk lar
per that the wife of Wallace Harper
dreamed, the Saturday night Lefore
the mmider, that Jake and Miss
Butsy were both killed b) a negro
man ai.d boy, and that the man had
long whiskers. The deseription
given of the nan anSwers exactly to
that of Trn Baker, one of-tho negroes
arrested upon suspicion of complicity
in the murder. This is very btrange,
but what seems the i-tratngest is that,
the horrid picture ,hould have hauntit
ed the dreams of a b.dy relative of
the deceased only a daty before his
murder. We are not given tosuper
stition, or inclined to ht nab iu.por
tanoe to dreams, but, if this oTie was
niade known before the inurder, we
think it oie of the most remarkable.

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.

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

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.
