The common practice on this point i pretty generally wrong. It is not unusual tofind colts put to harnessat two. years; and at three, many consider them fit foi steady work. A colt is not fitted for thiu at four; and his strength should never e tasked at three. 'The breaking proces. should be commenced efore he isw n ed, by accustoming. him to the 'hal tcr, and to handling. This should neve be mtermitted; but-the animal should al ways know and be accustomed to his master. If this is attended to, ho will nev er be otherwi~e than gentle, and wvill new. er give trouble in breaking. If lhe is not put to work too young, wvitl fair usage, the horse will be as good ia twenty years of age as le is commonl y a fibeen. One year's delay of work wl her a colt will be compensated by three oi four when a horse.---Prairi Farmer. ScRATcHKES AND COLIC IN IHORSES. --I have never failed to eurk the worst cases ofcolic, by drenching the horse with hall a pint. of good hop yeast.

I have applied it as a poultice, by tying on with a strip of cloth. ' Germantown Telegraph. POND MUD.-the "deposite at the hot. torn of millponds' is generally similar tc what is called "iuck,'-' and which is foun in various situations. The best maei of using it as manure, would c be to lay ui exposed to frost one winter, and ther make it ito compost, as has ofen beer described for m-uck or peat. DtAniNoG.-To ascerain whether t subsoil can be benefitted by under.drain ing, remove the surface soil for a sna extent, then dig a hole into the subsoil; in this hole iater soon collects, then the subsoil will be benefitted by draining. 0i o C C II a it BEAUTIFUL INCIDENT. We have been very pleasantly impres sed by the following beautiful little artick from Douglas Jerrold. We like its tone r-d the fresh, simple, and grateful char acter which it reveals; BLESSED BE THlE HAND WHICH PREPAIIE! A PLEASURE FOR A CHILD, for there is n< saying where and when it nmay bloorr forth. Does not almost everybody re member some kind-hearted man wh< shiowecd him a kindness in the quiet days of his chilhood? VTe wvriter of this re. collec's himself at this moment, as a bare footed lad, standing at thme wooden fenco a poor little garden in his native village with longing eyes lhe gazed on the flowv ers which were blooming in the bright ness of a Sunday morning. The posses sor of the garden caime forth fronm his littha cottage-he wvas a wood-cutter by trad< --and spent the whole wveek at his wvorl in the wcodis, Ho came into his garden t< gather a flower to stick in his coat wher he went to church. lie saw the boy, am breaking oflf the most beautiful of his car nations,-it was streaked with red an< white-gave it to him. Neither the give or the receiver spoke one word; and wvitl bounding steps the boy ran home; and now~ here at a vast distance from that home after so many years, the feeling of grati tude wvhich agitated the breast of that boa expresses itself on. paper. The carnatimn is long since wvithered, but It nowv bloom afresh.

STATISTICS OF THE FamiNCI NATIONAL AssnrLa.r.-The Corsaire-Satan gives the following statistical account of the Tjow. Na. tional Assembl:--"It consists of 1. depu. ties, or old deputies, almost all lawyers; 87 now lawyers, exercising their profession; 62 magistrates or ex-magistrates; 30- proprie. tors; 89 commissioners or sub-commission era of the Government; 33 military men of all ranks; 20 medical men; 20 operatives; 21 cultivators; 7 public writers; 83 of -ari. ous professions, including merchants, notari es, manufacturers, teachers, and eml loyers; and 217 representatives whose profession is in no wisu indicated. The number of eccle. siastics is from 10 to 15." There are now no 'ess than three mom bers of the Bonaparte family in the Nation al Assembly. Besides Lucien Murat, the son o' the unfortunate King of Naples, who has been elected for one of the departments of the south, Pierre Bonaparte, the son of Lucien, and Pierre Napoleon Bonaparte, thA son of Jerome, have been elected repre sentatives for Corsica.

We are awaiting anxiously for the denouement. Mexican Pills.-Trhere was a curious scene yesterday at the Bank of Missouri. it seems that about two hundred little boys are employed at the Arsenal in the filling of cartridges, and yesterday, having re. ceived the proper documents, they march. ed upin a body to the Bank to make a draw on Uncle Sam. The whole neigh. borhood was lively as a bee-hive, and the jingle of silver made music of the merre. ist kind. There were half-dollars in hats, half-dollars in handkerchicfs-pantaloons pockets were ripped, and coat tails were torn of by the wei ht of the treasure. The floor of the Ba k'vithin, wais coin. pletely covered by squads of urchins who were busily counting over their piles. Such a run on the Batik has been un. known since the grand smash which in. troduced shin-plasters. 'How much do you make a day?' de. manded a bystander of a cute looking ur. chin. 'Oh, sbmetimes, more, sometimes less,' was the reply. 'Pends a good deal upon how hard you work.' 'Can you make a dollar a day?' 'Dollar a day! wuss'n that I reckon.' 'A dollar and a half?' 'And a quarter better, I kin.' 'What do you call your work?' 'Makin' Me.rican Pill,!' 'And Uncle Sam is a good paymaster, chi?' 'Well, lie aint any thing else, hoss!' and off ran the little rascal, jingling all over with dollars.-St Louis Rerceil/c. HoWo to Tell a Yankee.-Any of omt readers w~ho may be puizzled to' find out what is the distinguishing characteristic of a 'gintoowine,' live Yankee-a thing the searching wvhereof has cost naturalists and philosophers, a wvorld of research and con. jecture, and 'calculation'. -may find a so.

It matters not Iwhat door it is, nor how many people want to pass in and out-there he'll stand and talk-and most like, holloa to some one across the street to come over, if two ol 'em-get together in a door they'll contrive to stand 'skewv fashioned, with their el. bows a-sticking out like a shivcr-defreezc, so that one can't get through 'em without starting oifhlis buttons, or loosing his coat tail.

A certain lawyer had his portrait tak. en in his favorite attitude-standing -with one hand in his pocket.- His friends and clients all went to see it, and eveiy bod exclaimed, '0, how like; it is the. very' ieture 'r f him.' A a old farmer only dlssentedc-taint like!' exclaimed every body, 'jdst' show wherein taint like.'

'Because you could hook your nose on a limb and pick wvith both hands.' A rch.deacon Fisher, having preached an old sermon once, which hpe ,was not aware that Constable had heard before, asked him how he liked it. 'Yery. much indeed, Fisher," replied Constable: 'I alwvays liked that sermon!' Several gentlemen wore assembled op. posite a tavern in Augusta, view ij a ye. ry small horse. One of the coria} 'ny ob serving, that lhe never had seeni so small a one before; an Irishman present declar ed that he did not think him a small horse at all, "for,said Pat, I have seen one as small as Iwo of him." 'WVhat do you call an imnpression?' ask ed a young lady of a typo. 'This,' saidl he, kissing her, 'beautiful. ly registered too.' 'Then talke that as a token of thanks,' she replied, slapping him in the face. 'Pray don't batter my form,' begged the poor typo. 'Then keep it locked up,' retorted the miss. As the sun, in all his splendor, was peeping over the eastern hills, a newly. married man exclaimed, "The glory of the wvorld is rising!"
