Loading the Camel. In India, the camel is used fully at much as the elephant as a beast of bur, den. IIe Is not so powerful as the ele phant, but he can carry an enormoui load on his back. le does not do s4 willinglf, however, and Is by no meani the patIent, docile servant that the ele phanitsoon becomes under proper train lg. When I first went to India as i young man I was connected with i mercantile firm in the northwest po vinces, and while there I had abundan opportunity of studying the camel, foi tieans of carriage in that part of th( country In those days was confined t< elephants, camels, bullocks and men Ilorses were not used as beast of bur. den. Every day camels and elephantf were driven up to our oluce door and loaded with wine and beer cases loi far away customers. The eleplhani would go clumsily down on his great knees and allow himself to be loaded without an indication of discontent. ] have no doubt that he would have per mitted himself to be loaded until ie was crushed to the earth beneath the woight of lils load, had his driver seen lit to pile on the boxes. But the camels receiving their burdens was i 8pectacle never to be forgotten. They niever varied in their behavior, and every one that I ever saw loaded-and I have seen thousands-acted in pre elsely the same mainner. The camel, wheiin loaded, is invariably chewing the cud. Ills long, crooked Jaw is in per pettial motion, ai.d when he is told to ie down to receive lits burden lie doeE so without varying this Inic.ssait mas ticatory process. le awkwardly bends his fore knees, drags his hind legs un der him, and comes to the ground with a curlous kind of flop. All this time his Iong, melancholy face shows not the slightest indication that le knowp what lhe Is lying down for; and this nmistakable hypocrisy, I think staiImps ihe camel as an animal of a very high order of intellect. But in a few secondF the expression o tie camel's face ul dergoes a striking alteration. As le sees the driver approaching him with a box on lis, shoulder he seems at last to uIderstands the lldign)itV and torture to whlleh lie is about to be submitted, aiad Ile as(on10ishm In lit, viritilouls 1id1g. alittlon, anld distnaiy Oin tlie ill-used animal's countenance ought certaingly to iake some impression oi the stony heart of th(. d iver. They never hav the siigliest Ollect. The man bids the 1i rst box oii the w retelied anlnmal's baik, aild goes away to get another. 'T'len tie camel, wisely abandomng lils efforts to move man to eomupassion, I)OiIts hh hIairy nose upward, and howls lis wrongs to the skies. "Never in circus, pantonime or show have I seen any lug half so ludicrous as the camel qppearance at that moment. Il Is tipperi li) is curled back tromn the teeth, hi uinder liy doubles up and drols downi as though le had no further Iuse for it, his great iiouth opeis so wide that one enn see about half yard down his throat, and out of the caver'n thus revealed camne a series of' the moist astonishming howls that ever' startled the air--howl, of such subject misery that it is dil cult to avoid the conclusion that the camel's heart Is breakinig, and this inm priessionl is strengthened b)y the tears t.hat now copiously downm the wailing anine's olonigated cheeks amnd tdrip: from the endu of his nose. in the utter aniee of each note cof woe the camel seems to be exertling the ultmost power of his lunigs, buit, lie is all the time hold. lug a large force ini reserve., and, as the~ driver adds box after box to the pmle on lisk back, a howl mor'e rcsonant, and heartiiding than the last, testihles to each addition to the creatuire's misery, antd never', except whelin lie is aibsolute'. ly enigaged in trumpeting his agoniex into space, are the great watery eyem of the camel removed from t,he person 01' his persecutoir; they follow lhin' wherever lie goes, anmd express thrzougli their tears conltemp)t, lud ignmations, as toisahmient and dismiay.

AGRIOULTURAJ. CHAM Cnsti.s-Xhe easiest cheese t4 make, and one which is most apprecla ted with salad, is cream cheese. Th best time for them is when the g'ass I so rich in early Summer. Let a t1 pai of milk stand thirty-six hou:s; take th cream off as thick as possible, and sti Into it about a teaspoonful of salt hay, two saucers ready, with any old diane napkin or linen cloth folded doubli over them; pour half the cream Inti each, and let them stand twenty-fou hours. By that time the water wil have run away Into the cloths. leavinj the cream solid. If not quite firm lai another linen cloth over them, and le them stand a few hours longer. Thei take a saucer in each hand, and put twi shades of cream together; with thi cloth mould the cheese into a rouni form, about an inch thick; wrap it ul in a clean cloth, leave it for twenty four hours when if the cloth is verj damp, put on a fresh one.. In four o live days it is ieady. If attended ti daily, and the cloth changed occasion ally, they will keep good a fortnight o more, putting on a wet one when thi cheese Is getting too dry. Another kind of cream cheese, ani preferred by some as not being quite si rich, is to take about a pint of' fresh riel cream, stand It in a warm place undis Curbed for two or three days until It be comes cardled; pour off the whey, sal the curd slightly, place a folded clotl in a soup iplate, pour In the curd let it stand1 twenty-four hours, thei change into a fresh cloth. If the lin t becomes very wet the second or thir day, change it again ; in a % e -k tb cheese is ripe. When cheeses are beilnj made, many young people enjoy a plau of curds, and whey with a little suga or fruit; the time to take it out Is jus before breaking up the curd. Use saucer to cut out a large slice, as itIs s much nicer to break up while.eating It When curds are to be had cheese-cakei are so easily made that I will add m: receip) for making them: In makinj cheese, when the curd is well drained before salting It, take two or thre breakfast cups of curds, and beat I through a colander or line sieve, add t, It a slice of butter, beaten smooth, tw eggs well beaten, a dust of salt, a litti nuitmeg, thiee tablespoonsful of creati some fine)y cut canned lemon-peel, small tea-cup of currants, with mols sugar to taste ; beatall up well and lin some pattypans with puir paste; put I the cheese cake, but do not quite fIl the tins. SALT Foin ANIMALS.-Many farmer are very stingy in the matter of supl)ly Ing animals with salt. They seem t, think that the money invested In sal for alilials is virtually thrown away and they study how to avoid this loss a far as possible. Occasionally a farime. will flnd thait some sheep will live si: moniths without eating salt, and hI lo3es no time in inliig his discover; known to the world. A large propoi tioii of farmrs furnish salt to thei ainimls but once a week. On these oc casions they eat so much of it thitat the: feel uncomfortable during the follow lug day. Stock of all kinds should hav salt constantly withinl their reach whether they are li the yard or pasture It ia very easy to keep a supply of sal in an open box in a shied where cattl call have free tcess to it. It reqire but little ingenuity to erect a salt-bo: in i pasture so that its coitents wil not be wasted. All that is required I a langinig roof, that can be moved b: tAie ieads of cattle and sheep. Wici cattle have a sup)ly of salt alway within their reach they will never ea so mnuch at any time as to render theoi uncomfortabie. Salt ls not a luxury but a nlecessity, and it should be suli plied without stint. Animals knios better L,uan their owners (10 how oftel they require salt. Any stoek ewne would object to being alioweti to tast sait but oncLe a week.

The Canadian Indiam. Between the Canada Indians and our own there is all the difference between wid and tame, beslded the vast dis parity of numbers. When the Conti nent was first colonized by the French and Euklish, two distinct lines of pol loy were observed In,dealing with the Indians. The French *olonists were more adaptable than the English, and look proud and exacting. They made but little show of taking hold of the coun try. They came as missionaries and traders, and gave theik forts the ap pearance of temporary lodgments. They entered Immediately upon trade In the principal article the Indians could offer in traffic-furs and peltry; To profit by this article of trade it was necessary to preserve the Indians hi the country, with as little change of habits and pur suits as possible, and maintain at least the friendship of trade. Trading-posts were rapidly established, which be came the points of contact between the colonists and Indians; and the settle ments of Quebec and Montreal were scarcely begun -before the whole extent of Canada was dotted with trading posts, frc ielle Isle to Lake Superior, where renohmen, attached to the posts as factors, clerks, laborers, and voyagers, lived from year to year. These posts became the homes of the Indians and-traders, and points of set tlement, where a semi-cIvilization was established; and the French mind, led by the zealoas missionaries whoalways accompanied the traders, molded the ciVilization and religion after the French idea. The short term of a generation sufficed to establish a race of half-breeds, of no mean proportion to 1he native population, 'born to the use of a common languge and com mou faith with the colonists, and trained to a civilIzation advanced to*the requirements of their condition, who naturally yielded fealty to the colony and loyalty to France. They were adapted to the country as it was, and did not require it to be changed for their accommodation; while they con stituted a link between the new and old races, and a natural bond of peace. This too was an open and safe field for missionary operations, where the eVer-. zealous Jesuits did not fall to sow seed that has taken deep root nnd spread far beyond this race. From the H ub.

Mo difientions of the arrangement give va rying results, according to the initial timperature of the water; but in all oases the temperature of the current of air is 'reduced by the apparatus to within seven degrees of that of the water. Steam power is required for blower, and, for the best result, the supply of water must be -abundant and its temperature low. NEVADA is the p'ace for cOwslip)s.
