An Aneriean Miner in Atutraline We had dug our shaft at the base of a ten-foot hill at McAllister's store, and had driven a tunnel right through into the hill, following a ledge that yielded some rich washing. The drive was very narrow, be ing'only large enough to give adilission to one n1111n. 1 descended the Shaft one0 mor ing and enltered the0 tunnlel. Just as 1 Wats about to drive lin miy pick at monstrous snakei rose upl lin fronit of mie; he had descended the shaft during the night, and worked his way into the end of the drive. By the light of nmy candle I saw it was a black snake, one of the most venomous of Atus tralian reptiles. I saw lie was about to strike, and so I drew back, but in the act stine miy head against thie roofr oft ihe drive, hitting myself such a severe blow that for a imiomieit I lost imly senses, and falling, I overturn3(ed the light and felt Illyself inl total darkness.

I Ilay for some time listen ing, and feeling certaiii that I had%(] not been bitten, I became possessed of anl irresistible longinig to) get olit. of the hole.

InI sonie wI ilbe round old brine, with pieces of decay d mett, sonding forth ain odor, when to cover of the barrel is tako ofi, vile motgi to wrench the stomach of a p1g. Itin othors there w ilI be iusty cilder bar rels, posibly vinegar casks, In which le vinegar ha11s passed oi to the plctre fative stage, dIssominating the spores if deicay antid death, not only through ite utpper part of' tihe house, but oven mescapitg throughm the cellar windows tnd polluting the outdoor air. Decay ng wood generates one of time most sub Le of poisons, because the odor Is not p)artileularly ol'ensive. Rotten timbers i the -collait and niouldy wood or chips in the woodhouse 1ill the air with spores whleh breathed by a person In the full vigor of health may be throwi off with imipunity but inhaled by one whose blood Is low may ilnd a congenial seed bed and generate disease. Utder the iiWer anl vinegmr barrels, and potato ilns, may be fomid old timbers tudi f boards that are full of dry rot, ready to p)ropagate itsolt wherever the rotten artlicles may 11mnd a lodgnomt. In the well, rotten wood Is a subtle poison, nor'e dangerous .hamn a dleomposing ond, as tile latter imakes its presence know n, while few tastes are so keen ts odeteet the presence o'decaying wood. Lrobably the inost prolille source of di masete arouid the fatrmihouse is the cess ool into which pass the kitchen and -lhammiber slips. lin the cities and large villages these are carried oi' imn the ;ewers, but seldomi does a fartimouse mayo any ' system of sewerage. The dlops aro too o'en thirown oumt of the idtchen door, and left to generate vile )dors on tihe surfaceo ot the ground. To iep tihe air of thie cellar and around the ouse sweet and pure, we have never outd any thing more economlical, plets tit and elliceiousm, thani a free sprink ing, ts ocetasioni may demand, 01 dry dr-slacked lime. Chloride of lime is it rimeater absorbeit ol'vile odors, but this a itself ofl'ensive to most olfactory erves, ind is also quite expemisive. Jomminon lime is cheap, and if scattered Freely im the cellar and wherever there tre Impurities, will render the air sweet Ind wlolesome,even itI the imost decomm Josing dog-days. SA:nixa STOCK.-One of the most I importait things to attend to In the ,are of farm stock of every kind, Is that they have access at all times to salt. mi this oonnetion we would again call mttentonm to the practice In vogtie with ninny farmer's, in that they salt irre gulairly, and at such times with too li beral a hanid T1hus anilmals will gorge themelves, amid this oftenm results in sever'e purgiing. Again, wheni salt Is thrown about on the ground to be licked uip, the lat'ger animals get more than thney shmoukli, amid the smialler ones little or' none. Besides, injutry to weak ant nmals Is oftLenm the m'esumlt of this strug gle. Thme proper way to salt stock 18 to have stilt lamced uinder cover, where they may got it every (lay if thmey wish. Inm this way they take just what they wvamnt amid nio more, and while eating what is necessary f'or them, they never take enough to do thetm injury. Th'lus ettle wili seldom take more than anm ordnlmar'y tablespoonful per day, amid Lhmle Is about what they require in sumi mer as ani akid to proper digestomn. SAND FOR S'rABL.5.-No0r thme past two years I have' used - consideraible sand to good advanitage, bothm to my ci'ops amid amid, as an a bsor'benmt. For this pur' pose 1 conmstructed otn the back side of the stable two boxes, one at each end of thme stale, aboumt five feet in wIdth, ten feect imn lemngth and six in hieighit, tilling theum thi'oughi time suimmr and ftill withm dr'y sand using it with little trouble or labor f'or the cows thr'oughi time winter. The use of samd keeps thmo stable dr'y andl sweet, and also absorbs most of the lmqutid manure, Saind also cuts time nman ure, sothamt it is more easily wvorked and spread.
