She saw the bacchantes try to shake off their torpor at the sight oil their stricken leader, and one rose to bis feet to fall as soon as he needed sup? port.

On her way to the swamp she had en? countered the partisans who had captured one of the flying horses, and were follow? ing the trail. The conflict between .patriot and tory was brief and almogt bloodless,' ' The.five avengers were made prisoners, and sued like cowards for the mercy they bad never granted to a living being. 11 need not describe the scene that fol? lowed. Suffice it to say that the trees in front of Alice Beauchampe's home bore the strangest (fruit that ever hung from Jiving, limb. The vengeance of the patriots was as complete as it was terrible, and when the ?glorious sun rose, again, the dreaded men of the'lofely district had ceased fo' fright? en people .with thefr name. j Alice Beauchampe, whose courage had led.to the extermination of the avenging band, became the heroine of the day, and after the termination of the hostilities , wedded a lieutenant of Marion's men.

But all efforts of the medical men were unavailing, their, visits ceased unless specially urged t? call, and while not wholly abandoning the case, yet theV. very broadly intimated that it was hopeless to expect any perma? nent benefit from the'physician's skill. So matters stood when the articles on !lue grass "appeared iuV Htieseicolumns: little attention was at first given to the matter..but-as reiterated statements were | made of the beneficial effects' derived from blue glass sunbaths it was deemed of sufficient importance to -give the mat? ter-a trial. If no geod effects followed, ce^ftiyjP?Jnjur^'.could result from so harmless an"experiment, while the theo? ry of thejafficacy- of - blue glass ?ould be satisfactorily- tested: Accordingly the. husband of the sick* lady had 'the lower sash of two of the parlor windows glazed with blue glass in the manner recom? mended- by General Pleasonton. The parlor fronts south on Transit street, and in the morning the sunlight streams through the south blue glass window.? The other is a side window looking to the west, and along in the afternoon the sunlight pours through the blue glass window, so that for several hours ot the 'day.,the patient can sit and receive the sunlight. The husband had not a par? ticle of confidence in the blue glass theo? ry/but cheerfully acquiesced in the ex? periment, being willing to go to any ex? pense or inconvenience to have bis wife's health' restored. About ten days ago the blue glass arrangement was completed, and' toe next succeeding pleasant day,' when the sun was shining, the experi? ment commenced. The lady was carried to'the p?Tl?r and left sitting in her chair, the,other members of the family with drkwJngJi In'the > course of an hour. or. twotfie family was startled by a noise in the parlor, learning that a lady had fall? en from her chair. '"On entering the par? lor, what was their astonishment to find that she had actually arisen and walked across the floor. Strength had returned to her limbs, she was able to move her feeVaiid immediately incredulity in the efficacy.of blue glass was banished from that house. This was the first day's ex? perience, but subsequent experiments Only confirmed the confidence of the household, and the husband who at first "pooh-poohed" the whole thing, is'now one of the firmest believers. It has done great good,- and- .wbiio a cure has. not been by any me?n? effected, yet very good results are looked for. j Cabbage Leaves and Blue Glass. From the Neiv York World. ' The uses of the segregated cabbage-leaf are comparatively few and unimportant. It enters into competition with American epic poetry as an euvelope for pats of butter and steaks ; it is the base of those best Havana cigars in town which toxi Cological tobacconists Bell eight for a quarter; it serves to baffle too curious infant inquirers into the question of the origin of man. In medicine it figures fa Btirns, if w* remember aright?as a rude but ready aid to scientific diagnosis. Of late, however, it has aspired to a much more pretentious part, since Mr. Blane, an eminent physician of Paris, has just published a book on the cabbage cure, Showing that the leaves of the ordinary cabbage are for the healing of all nations Afflicted with ulcers, sores, boils, rheu? matism, gangrene, .'fever and erysipelas. Ifhese numerous uses in conjunction with he excitement over the discoveries of General Pleasonton, convey a whole host of suggestions even to the scientific mind. It stands to reason that if blue glass be so good and green cabbage leaf be so good, the curative purposes of glass and cabbage leaf must result in boundless benefit. All that will remain to be done will be .to grow the cabbage under blue glass fTamesJ^tntis happily oombihing dual excellencies in the single product. In the bright lexicon of eternal youth there will in the future be inscribed but two words. Man shall sit Ander his blue glass vault, munching his savery messes of the leaves of the hassica, death and 'disease not daring to molest him, neither making him afraid. To insure that sur? vival of one's powers, acquaintances, aff lections and usefulness which men affect to consider desirable, one will but need at sunrise to repair to his blue glass house (abstaining carefully from the throwing of stones du-ing his occupancy thereof,) there to bask in. the actinic rays of the 'sun' till twilight, draws on, fore-telling I the night wherein' he shall draw the drapery of his cabbage leaves around him and lie down to pleasant dreams of the next centennial. The-prospect is a most, flattering one, though it may look blue1; ;Lef us;'?therefore, consider the slugs of the cabbage leaf; they toil hot,: , -neither do they 'spiff, yeffor all sanitary ' purposes they are more favorably situated thau the modern benefactor of humanity who patents a panacea, grows rich by its sale, and either perishes miserably, i. ?..

The Chicago Times has a few. truthful paragraphs describing fancy farmers, , which read as follows: ? No class of men . have bfeen ridiculed so much, and none have done so much good, as those who are denominated fan? cy farmers.. They have been, in all times . and countries, the benefactors of the men. who have treated them with' derision.? They have been to farmers what inven? tors have been to manufacturers. They have experimented for the good of the world, while others have simply worked for their own good. They tested theo? ries, while others have raised crops for market. They have given a dignity and glory to the occupation of farming it never had before. Fancy farmers have changed the wild boar into the Suffolk and Berkshire ; the - wild bull of Britain into the short horn ; tlrepiountain sheep, with its lean body and hair fleece, into the Southdown and the Merino. They broupht up the milk . cows from pints to gallons. They have lengthened the sirloin of the bullock, deepened the udder of the cow, enlarged 'the ham-of the hog, given strength to the , shoulder of the ox, rendered finer the wool of the sheep, added fleetness to the speed of the horse, and made beautiful every animal that is kept in the service of man. . They bare improved and has? tened the development of all domestic animals, till they hardly resemble the creatures from which they sprang. Fancy, farmers introduced irrigation and nnder-draining, grindiugs and cook? ing food for stock. They brought guano from Peru, and nitrate of soda from Chili. They introduced and domesticated all the brants we .have of foreign origin. They .brought, out the theory, of rotation of .crops as a natural means of keeping up ana increasing the fertility of the soil. They first ground up gypsum and bones, and treated the latter with acid to make manures ot .a peculiar, value.? The first analyzed soils, as a means of- determin? ing what,was wanted .to increase their fertility. They introduced the most im? proved methods of raising and distribu? ting water. Fancy farmers, or fancy horticulturists, have given us all our varieties of fruits, vegetables and flowers. A fancy farmer in Vermont, a few years ago, originated the Early Rose potato, which added millions of dollars to the wealth of our country and proved to be a most impor? tant accession in every part of the world where it was introduced. Another of these fancy, men originated the Wilson strawberry, ) and .another,- the i Concord grape. It was a fancy farmer who brought the Osage orange from Texas to the, Northern States. 4 Among the men in this country who were classed as fancy farmers at an early day, were Washington, Jefferson, Frank? lin and Livingston: I The: first introduced mules; the second, the cultivation of im? proved rice ;"the th'ird,'thsruse Of landpras*" ter, and the fourth, the raising of lucerne. More than any -men of their time did they add to the wealth of the country, j After them came another race Of fancy farmers, who introduced Arabian horses, Spanish sheep, and the improved breeds of cattle and swine. These fancy far? mers added immensely to the. wealth of the practical farmers of the country. * The Pig for the South.?Black'or slate-colored pigs are freest from skin diseases in hot climates. The choice is practically between the Essex and Berk? shire for males with which to improve the native stock of hardy grubbers of the root-or-die ?variety., KTho8e .who have tried the former have -been, delighted at first, but after a few yeafs^egin to recall with longing the lean hams and thin but solid and flavorous bacon of the old race horse breed.. The trouble with .the Essex -pigs for the South is that they are not ac? tive enough. They are of the eat-and sleep, ana sjeep-and-wake-to-eat kind, and their grades are, of course, like them. The side fat is superb, and so is the leaf lard, and so far the breed is all that could be desired; but the- .hams and shoulders, are too fat for profit,.and the ham is. not marbled with dat like, the Berkshires. These (the Berks) are much more enter? prising, more wide awake, less easily con? trolled, but good foragers. TJieir grades are a wonderful improvement upon the original stock, mayTie .made vSry fat. and.yet the proportion-hetween fat ana lean in the hams, shoulders and side pork or bacon is such as to develop and pre? serve the excellencies of the meat. The hams are large and rich, and juicy with diffused fat. Berkshires are not quite so easily fattened when penned and system? atically fed' as the Esses, grade, but they will take much better care of themselves in the ivoods, and whenpenned for fat? tening may he finished Oft with half the feed the original "land pikes" would re-, quire. With many Northern and Western breeders the Essex is a more profitable pig than the Berkshire, because his ma? ture leads him to take little exercise1, so that all he eats goes to flesh and fat. Respiration, which, if rapid, reduces fat greatly, is with him never accelerated by moving^ about,- and, with plenty of feed, the sole burden of life is to digest it This breed is pre-eminent among the ?black breeds,- and excelled by none as fat producers.?American Agriculturist.
