Hot Cholera and the Kidney Worm. |
I have noticed frequent reference to
kidney worm and its cure in the Journal,
an well as hog cholera and its cure1
and prevention. Do the eminent breedera
who advertise in the Journal ever
have either among their stock ? If they
do not, how do they manage their hogs
ao as to prevent it ? Do any of them
keep a continuous supply of salt and
ashes before their hogs ? If they do,
with what result ?
I write this, hoping it may draw out
some of the gentlemen who carried on
such an interesting discussion in the {
Journal a short time since.
I had only been farming three years
last January, when I bought twenty*
two hogs, ana lost either ten or twelve .

which time I have had remarkable success.
having had no disease of any sort
among them. I have killed for mv own
use and sold, np to last fall, 171, and
have abont 100 that I shall feed this
fall. For a 250 acre'farm, the number
I have had and now have, 1 should
think, would be a fair test; but farmers
who have raised hogs for forty years do
net endorse my plan of a continuous
supply of salt, about tbree parts, and
one part ashes, because it pukes them
when they have not had it for a time,
and eat too muoh when they get it. To
Srevent this I put in a little slack lime
te drat time, and only once, to prevent
them from taking too much. I nought

A writer in the Dutchess Farmer,
among other things said concerning the
advantages of good barns, remarks that j
he believes it is safe to sey that money !
invested in well-constructed barns pays
from 20 to 50 pet cent, every year, and
that all will agree to the statement
when we take into consideration the full

oost of doing chores ; the advantages
of having stock fixings constantly
in yonr way, the continual exposure
of all your stocks to all the
wind6 and storms, and all of them

built or fed out. By providing suitable
barns and stables, one can avoid
all these losses, cares and troubles, and
feel confident security as every load of
hay is committed to their keeping, and
every animal is thriving under their
kind prot-Oction, during ths cold winter.
Chicken Broth.
This is generally made for invalids, |
for whom beef broth is too rich; although
chicken broth can be made rich
also by putting several old chickens in
the kettle with a comparatively small
amount of water. Process: To make
an ordinary chicken broth, neither rich
nor weak, put in the soup kettle an old
chicken, the bones of which you crack
in several places, or half a chicken, with
about a quart of water to a pennd of
meat; add a little salt, and set
on a good fire. When commencing
to boil push the kettle back, add a gill
of cold water, and skim off the scum
that gathers on the surface. "When no
more scum oomes up, add a carrot, a
stiok of celery, and two leeks : simmer
for two hours, strain, an<J use. If

Mir Edwin Landseer.
A special despatch from London announces
the death of the celebrated
painter, Sir Edwin Landseer, at the age
of seventy-one years. Sir Edwin was
the third and youngest son of the lute
John Landseer, A. R. A. and F. S. A.,
born in London in 1802. He excelled
in painting animals whilo a boy, and
became a Btudent of the Royal Academy
in 1816. He began to exhibit his pictures
when but little over fourteen years
of age, und his earliest productions attracted
attention and gave great prom
ise of future excellence.
The majority of his compositions
have become popular engravings. His
bronze figure of the "Stag at Bay"
was in the Royal Academy Exhibition
of 1866, and the four lions iu bronze
for the base of the Nelson column,
Trafalgar square,- for which he received
the commission from the British government
in 1859, were placed on the
pedestals and uncovered January 81,
1867.
He became an associate of the Royal
Academy in 1827; became a Royal
Academican in 1830. He was knighted
by the Queen of Great Britain in 1850.
As a member of the Athenreum Club he
was greatly sought after, being of a
cheerful and communicative disposition.

Of the lessons that humanity has to
learn, the hardest is to learn to wait.
Not to wait with folded hands that
claim life's prizes without previous
efforts, but have struggled and crowded
the slow years with trial, see no result
as efforts seem to . warrant*?nay, perhaps,
disaster instead. To 6tand firm
at such a crisis of existence, to preserve
one's self-poise and self-respect, not to
lose, hold or relax effort, this is greatness,
whether achieved by man or woman?whether
the eye of the world
notes it, or it ip recorded in the book,
which the light of eternity shall alone
make clear to vision. Those who stand
on the high places of the earth understand
not what necessity, what suffering
means. They know not what it is
to a noble mind to be obliged, like the
worms, to crawl upon the earth for
nourishment, because it has not the
. strength to endure famine. Life moves
around them with so much grace,splendor
and beauty; they drink life's
sweetest wine, and dance to a charming
intoxiqation. They find nothing within
them which can enable them to understand
the real suffering of. the poor ;
they love only themselves, and look at
mankind only in their own narrow
circle.
I
Exciting: Scene in a Menagerie*
A terrible scene took place in Zanders'
Menagerie, at Whitby, in England,
on Sept. i<k 'there were several hundred
people in the show when heart-,
rending cries, as from one in mortal
agony, went through the air. A panic
ensued. "The people, terribly excited,
ran en masse to the narrow outlet, and
endeavored to escape by other means.
A cry was raised outside that (me of j
the beasts had burst through the bars
of its oage, and the e&citemeht Atiidhg
the crowd without W4s Scarcely less intense
than that within. In the ru$h to
the door many people, particularly the
weaker sex, were injured, and the con*
fusion was increased fare the circumstance
of a couple of camels blocking
up the doorway. Meanwhile the cries
continued, and it was discovered that a
poor boy named Langley was the victim
of the viciousness of a big tiger,
placed alongside another ,Ue*t tb tlie
cage containing the lioh that worried
to death pbot McCarthy, the lion-tamer,
at Bolton last year. The tiger was infuriated,
and was making strenuous ef-1
forts to draw the lad through the bars
of the cage. The bett5t prowled fright-;
fully* and what with the pitiful cries of j
the boy, the shouts of the men, and the i
screams of half-fainting women, the j
scene was one of the most terrible de-!
8criptiou. Borne men ran for hot irons* |
while others beat the beast with their :
sticks and umbrellas, and did all they
could to draw the brute from its helpless
vieMm TTltimatelv. after a severe
mauliog, the animal relinquished its |
prey, and the boy, helpless and faint j
through loss of blood from the injuries |
he had received, was borne away
through the crowd. His wounds, upon
being dressed, appeared to be of a serious
nature, though they are not likely
to prove fatal. The brute seems to
have Caught its victim just below the :
elbow, and tore a deep lump of flesh
right down the fotfeafm to "the wrist.
There in also a deep gash in the palm
of the left hand, from which the hemor- j
rhage is great. The patient lien in
great pain, and it is feared that ne will
not recover the perfect use of his arm.
One of the keepers has also been se- j
terelv injured. He was struck by one :
of the elephants, and his ribs were
smashed in. The man was taken to the I
workhouse in a helpless condition.
Something about Beef.
Two kinds of fluid are used besides
broth, says Pierre Blot, to make soups
?milk and wafer f but, although gObd,
they are light soUpU in comparison with
those made with broth. Butter is added
when water is used,
Bones alone make a gelatinous broth,
but not as nutritions as when used with
meat. A pound of meat and bones
makes a pint and a half of good broth ;
two pounds make a quart of rich broth.
The more meat used With a certain
amount of water, the richer the broth.
The pieces of beef generally used to
make broth are the leg, the shin, the
neck, the round, and the chuck.; other
Sieoes are just as good, but they are
e&rer, and do not make more or better
broth. Besides beef, the trimmings of
Vv/v/vf t%*\A trool r\t
piCUCD U1 UCCl iiuu IV(IJ| vr* vu*vhvuu( .
turkeys, and Guinea-birds, are excellent
to make brotb.5 e!so the bones and what
has beiih left of the same pieces after
having been served as roasted pieces,
and after having cracked the bones
with a chopper. Any kind of meat or
bones used to make broth must be
fresh ; the piece of meat or bird, the
bones of which are used for broth, must
have been roasted when very fresh.
The least taint spoils the broth. Many
epicures use every kind of^game, biped ,
or quadruped, with beef to make broth. |
either raw or the boneBNof such after!
havihg been served as roast pieces, especially
such gable as partridges and
like birds) rabbits, hares, etc.; such
broth has a gamy taste. Some go further
; when they have made rich beef
broth, they boil game in it to make it
richer, and then make consomme with
it. It is then real asBenCe of meat, and
very rich food.
The best utensil for making broth is
an earthen pot; next is a copper or
iron digester Or kettle, well lined with
tin. An iron pan lined with porcelain
is excellent if the porcelain is not
cracked. Any kind of fire is good as
long as it is not too sharp, and will
keep the pot simmering; it does not
matter whether it is on a stove or range,
in a grate or furnace, or whether it is a
hard coal, charooal, or wood fire. It is
not necessary to be a thorough cook to
make excellent broth, for care and
watchfulness are the only two qualities
' required.
A Marvel Outdone.
Mr. Finlayson, town-clerk of Stirling,
Scotland, in the latter part of the sevI
enteenth century, was noted for the
j marvelous in conversation. He was on
| a visit to the Earl of Menteith and Airth
I in his castle of Taha, in the Loch of
Menteith ; and was about taking leave,
j when he was asked by the earl whether
j he had seen the nailing cherry-tree.
" No," said Finlayson ; " what sort
I of a thing is it ? "
" It is," replied the earl, "a tree that
has grown out at a goose's mouth from
a stone the bird had Bwallowed, and
which she bears about with her in her
voyages round the loch. It is now in
full fruit of the most exquisite flavor,
i Now, Finlayson," he added, " can you,
! with all your powers of memory and
fancy, match the story of the cherrytree?
"
" Perhaps I can," said Finlayson,
clearing his throat, and adding: "When
Oliver Cromwell was at Airth, one of the
cannon sent a ball to Stirling, and lodged
it in the mouth of a trumpet which
one of the troops in the castle was in
the act of sounding."
44 Was the trumpeter killed ? " said
the earl.
" No, my lord," replied Finlayson ;
41 he blew the ball back, and killed the
artileryman who had fired it."
The Deadly Effects of Absinthe.
During the session of the Medical
Congress at Lyons, one day was set
apart for the study of alcoholic stimulants.
On that occasion the physician
of the St. Anne Asylum, Dr. Magnan,
comparing the chemical action of alcohol
and absinthe on man, drew the conclusion
that the former acts more slowly,
gradually provoking delirium and
digestive derangement, while absinthe
rapidly results in epilepsy. Then, producing
a couple of dogs, he treated one
with alcohol and the other with the essence
of absinthe, this latter being the
activo principle of the absinthe liquor
which is commonly drunk. The alcohollaed
brute oould not stand up, became
sleepy and stupid, and, when set
on his legs, trembled in an inert mass ;
the other dog experienced at once
frightful attacks of epilepsy. Analogous
effects are produced in mankind.
the AshantVe WAr?
The English reverse met in the
Ashantee war was as follows: Five tl
boats manned find armed, started for tl
Chamah to hold a palaver with the o
King and chiefs of the Chamah people, q
The object songht was to obtain the tl
assistance of this tribe against the c<
Ashantees. The interview was vcrv p
unsatisfactory, however as the Shaman ii
chiefs said th% fajtlHi atJt heither for h
tidi against the British Government, I:
and refused to send chiefs to accompany ft
the expedition into the river Prah. E
The demeanor of the Chamah tided} not- ,v
withstanding', wis So peaceful that si
Commodore Commerell apprehended o
no danger from them, and deoided to a
proceed up the river, keeping near the ti
Chamah side of the stream. s<
The Commodore says t " The river is it
aDout seventy or eignty yaras Droau, c
and iVte tveire proceeding satisfactorily v
until abont a mile and a half up the e:
river, when, without any warning or g
without seeing any natives, we were ri
fired noon from the dbhsb bush on the
Chcfltau side, and found that we had p
passed an ambuscade of the natives, b
who were pouring a heavy and murder- ci
ous fire upon our boats. d
" I immediately gave orders to open u
fire with the Bmail-arm men. but the tl
rockets could not be fired, aS the steam k
Cutter was towing the boats. o'
" At the first discharge I was shot
down, severely wounded in the right r<
side, and at the same moment Com- u
mander Lnxmore'and Capt. Heldenwere h
severely hit. I then ordered the boats U
to repair to mid-stream, and, finding b
a number of otir mett wounded, I gave tl
orders for the expedition to return to tl
the Rattlesnake. b
" We reached the Rattlesnake about ai
6 p. m., where the wounded were at E
once attended Id. 0
u The Rattlesnake was cleared for y
action, and in less than two hours time u
the town of Chamah was a heap of tl
burning ruins, and every etettion had ol
been made td Avenge treachery so foul. U.
"It is not possible many natives ol
were killed by these measures but the tl
lesson will be severely felt, and those 01
who have gone to the bush will spread
far and wide the punishment their dis- w
loyalty and treacnery have so deeply e:
merited. The English lost four killed ei
and twenty wounded in the action. fi:

The Winter Hut Described by One of

the Polaris Crew? w
A Seatiiah thus describes the hut ci
where the party wintered :?The hut m
was twenty-two feet by fourteen, the ^

the bulkheads of the staterooms of the fa
vessel. The roof was covered with sails bi
aud was perfectly watertight} a Are a{
was placed in ope end of the hut with a tr
stovepipe as a Chimney. A gallery and 0<
staterOom were also provided. The w
hut was simply one apartment with
berths around the sides. When
thoroughly banked up with snow all
around and supplied with the stoves
of the Polaris, the explorers found
themselves in possession of a very com- o<
fortable lodging for winter, and{ making ^
up their minds to wait in patience for
the spring, each Man seemed to be com- w
paratively happy. At this time the 11
weather was always dark and the hut ai
was kept cheerfully lighted by oil 01
lamps which had been got out of the
vessel, the oil used being from seals
and walras; the time was beguiled with "
reading and games at chess, and a good b
fire was kept constantly burning, the G
unused coal on board the Polaris having s<
been launched and used for the purpose. f(
On the 1st of February the coal was s;
consumed, and the ship was made to w
supply wood?instead. Till the 1st of si
April the time was spent in much the n
same manner, when the party began to tl
consider the propriety of leaving to f<
seek their way to some spot where they s
might be picked up by some vessel. To t<
enable them to do this Mr. Chester, the h
chief matfy with the assistance of the ti
carpenters and Mr. John Booth, set to f:
work to build two boats, the necessary b
materials being got from the vessel, j c
Each of the boats were twenty-five feet q
long, with five beam, square at each p
end, boat turned, up and capable of
carrying seven men, with stores for two li
months. The middle of May arrived t
before the boats were completed, owing f
to the great difficulty there was in get- c
ting materials for construction. c
A Frightful Fall. t
Au accident, which took place at Wa- !
pello, Iowa, resulted in death, under r
, circumstances of unexampled horror, j
! " Professor" J. W. Bailey ascended f
from the Fair grounds at that place in r
' a balloon inflated with hot air. The t
i mishap followed which so often occurs (
with this Bpecie of balloon. As it left j
the ground, the mouth of the bag was
seen to be on fire, but this was appar- ^
ently not observed by the aeronaut t
until he had reached too great a height T
to drop with safety. Higher and higher
I he ascended, dinging to a horizontal f
bar, which formed his sole support, and ~
which he had designed to make the
scene of the gymnastic tumblings and
turnings usual in such exhibitions. It
may well be conceived that his mind
during that awful flight was set upon
other things than acrobatic posturings;
but no stretcli of imagination can picture
the feelings of the doomed wretch
as he was thus wafted helplessly and
hopelessly upward, further and further
away from life and safety, clinging, or
rather bound fast, as it were, to the
skirts of inevitable death. In most situations
of the sort there is a chance, i
however slight and desperate, of event- .
ual escape. Here, from the very first .
almost, tnere could have been none. To
the crowd below, watching in an agony 1
of apprehension for the final moment, (
the coutrast between the spangled and '
tawdry splendor of tho poor tumbler <
and his terrible fate must have been ex- '
quisitely painful. One after another 1
the ropes that upheld the frail support <
nf Hia misArable man burned awav, and, 1
! at last, when he was a quarter of a mile j
! high, he fell,?striking the ground with
such force that his body was driven
into it up to the knees. Of course he
was instantly killed, if, as one prefers
to hope, he was not already dead from
suffocation or terror before reaching
the earth.
Wrought Iron Story.?The story of
the shipment of one hundred tons of
wrought iron from New York to Liverpool,
to be sold at a ptofit for a less
1 price than the corresponding quality of
English make, turns out to be a myth.

Rational Horse-Shoeing, ^
pnot-lnmAnfiHR in horses is an evil so <>
immon, and 'against which tLe horse- t

ie w >rld is waiting for some one who
ill teaoh a more excellent way of nail- n
ig iron to the organio structure of the ?
tiimal, to increase his usefulness with- t

It is claimed that this desired result
i obtained by the shoe, and the sys;m
of applying it, invented by Mr. ?
foodenougn, whioh has been in use in ?
)me parts of this country and Europe
)r several years. The object of this \
pstem is to protect the hoof from
earing away by attrition, but dt the
ime time to'; allow to the horse its i
fttural use and action. The mo(to of
his system is, "No frog, no foot; no J
jot, no horse," a say'ng abundantly i
igniflcant, and evidently the keynote {
3 the whole method. From his hrst to i
is last page, "Wildair" enforces the {
ruth, that without the action of the j
rog on the ground there can be no i
ealthful condition of the foot. We J
annot do better, perhaps, than to i
uoto from page 11 of the book on this
loint:
"The world is for the moot part (in
loree-shoeing) just where it was a
hoti8and years ago, possibly worse off, (
or the original purpose of shoeing was \
inly to protect the *oot from attrition i
ir chipping, and but little iron was '
ised; but, as the utility of the opera- i
ion bccamo apparent, the smith bold- 1
V took the responsibility of altering
lie form of the hoof to suit his own uneasoning
views, cutting away, as sn- J
>erfluous, the sole and bars, paring the j
rog to a Shapely smoothness, and then ,
iniTing on a broad, heavy piece of iron,
'overing not only the wall, bnt a porion
of the sole also, thus putting it out

lpward pressure, quickening the cirsulation,
and thereby stimulating the
latnral secretions?this all-important
iart of the organization, without which
here is no foot and no horse, becomes
lard, dry, and useless. Then follows
lie whole train of direful consequences.
Romance of a Young Man.
Not long ago, a young man of Springield,
Mass., had a most favorable oplortunity
to enter a business house in
lis State, at a large increase over his
present salary, with a prospect of soon
jetting a place in the firm. His recomuendations
were first-class, and the
jfficers of the institution were decidedly
pleased with his appearance. They,
liowever, made him no proposals, nor
lid tliey state their lavorauie impressions.
A gentleman was requested to
ascertain where tho young man spent
bis evenings, and what class of young
men were his associates. It was found
that he spent several nights of the week
in a billiard room, and on Sunday
afternoon drove a hired span into the
country,with three other young bloods.
He is wondering why he didn't hear
from tho house concerning that coveted
position. -

third son of Mr. John Landseer, an
artist of note in his day. Sir Edwin
was born in 1802, and in early manhood
became well known throughout
England, and onlv a few years later
was well-renowned as a painter and
sculptor. His most prominent work in
the latter art is the group of lions at
the Nelson monument,Trafalgar square,
