Capt. Keller Harris of the steamboat St.
Paul, died recently, On the upper Mississippi.
He was generally known on the rivers, and
was universally respected and beloved for his
social virtues aud admired for his oxtraordina-
nv ability in his calling as boatman. In the
year 1850, he ascended the Minnesota river, in
command of the steamer Yankee, to a higher
point on that then unexplored stream than any
boat had yentured before or since.

ANECDorE OF DR.. YoUEG.-As the Doctor
was one day walking in his garden at Melvin,
in company with two ladies, one of whom he
afterwards married, a servant came to tell him
that gentleman wished to speak with him
"Tell him." said the Doctor, "that | ain too
happily employed to change my situa'lon.'-
The ladies insisted that he should 60, as his
visitor was man of rank, his patron and his
friend. As persuasion, however, bad no effect,
one tsok him by the right arm, the other by
the left, and led him to the garden gate, when,
finding resistance was in vain, he bowed, laid
his hand upon bis heart, and in that expressive
manner for which he was so remarkable, spoke
the following lines:
.sThus Adam looked when from the garden driven,
And thus disputed orders sent from heaven,
Like him 60, but yet to go am 10th;
Like him 20 for angels drove Us b tn:
Hard was his fate, but mine still more unkind
His Eve went with him, bus mine stays behind

planters generally have commenced harvesting
their Rice. The crop is universally good one.
The exceptions to this general rule ure owing
almost entirely to aome defect or mistake in the
culture. The weather thus far has not been
propi.ious for saving the crop; nor does it
promise much better for the future. II, howev.

as the woman passed him, be fired at her three
times, and then discharged his two remaining
shots in his own body, one on the right and
the other on the left side, just below the heart.
AT the first fire at the woman the cap oply ex
ploded. The second shot took effect in the
aeshy part of the arm, which caused her to
scream with pain, and to fee for life. The
third shot missed it's aim, and the remaining
shots were turned upon himself. He was
seated in chair in the porch Of the White

exhibited his own wounds to the bystanders
with evident satisfaction. The whole affair was
deliberately planned and executed by Peters.

TO ASCERTAIN HoRsEs' AGE. Every
horse has six teeth above ard below
Before three he sheds one or more on
each side of the central teeth. Between
four and five, the horse cuts his under
tusks, at which time his mouth will be
complete. AT six, the grooves and hol-
lows will begin TO ill up a little; at seven
the groove will be nigh filed up, excerpts
the corner teeth, leaving little brown spots
where the dark brown spots formely were.
At eight, the whole of the holows and
grooves are filed up. At nine, there is
very often seen small bill 10 the corner
teeth-ihe point of TIE tusk is worn off,
and the part that is concave begins to
fill up and become rounding-thc square
ness of the central teeth begins to disap-
pear, and the gums leave them small and
narrow at the top.
