Military Pig.

During the last war with England, a
company of volunteer soldiers, destined to
Join Shelby's army for the invasion Of Can
ada, had their rendezvous at Harrodoburg, in
Kentucky, and remained there some time,
while others were gathering there to pre-.
pare for their march to CanAdl When
the troops had started on their march to-
wards the Ohio River, they saw i've pigs
fighting each other, and halted to see the
battle ended. When they resumed their
marc the victorious pig was seen following
the soldiers, and at night when the troops
bivouackcd the pig found shelter near by,
and halted also. The next day the wg
marched on again with the troops, and con-
iinued to accompany them to The river oppo-
site Cincinnati, where they crossed on a
ferry boat. The pig, on getting to the
waters edge, plunged in and swan across
and waited on the other SIDE ill the tr ops
were again prepared TO march. In The same
way the pig kept m with the troops until
they came to Lake Erie As the men had
their attention turned tn the pig, il became
the pet, and they gave it a fail shaie OF the
ralions which they received and although
the ,rops themselves were often almost des-
tltute of TODD they never thought of put
ting the knife To the throat Of their fellow
soldier, the pig. And t tunes, though the
pig Jared rather s%cantlly, it still gruuted
onward, aud manifested as much paIrinlism
i'll its way as its biped comrades whom ii
acc mpanIed. AT the Like the pig EN-
barked with the soldiers aud went as FAR as
Bass Island. Some of the horses were left
at that place, aud although the pig was of

they were aStonlshed to see the pig ON the
right of the line, ready tn resume the march
with the rest. 1t however reached MAYS

HAY, on account Of the drouth in the
last OF spring and first of summer, is rath-
er light and ther efore The farmers should
consult economy and f%rugaIity in feeding
it ont but You may take your fodder, and
intermIX meal with it, and thus make it
hold out. If you feed your hay out first,
without the meal, and then towards spring
Introduce the meal, your cattle will not be
in SO good order, when spring opens, as
they would have been had you fel them
both out together, and regularly. Never
stint your cattle on account Of scarcity of
hay, but keep them nell, and they will re-
pay You during the following season. Feed
them fully, but not too copiously, for if
they are fed too much at a time, they be-
come cIied aud waste their food. Shut
your cattle up, all that you can, for a
warmly stabbed beast requires less food
than one that is kept in a cold and snowy
place, Shelter your sheep from the wet
SHOWS and rains, and feed them often, but
little at a time.
Apples are very plenty, and command a
fair price considering their abundance

joy a social repast Of this most delicious

Eorses--.CareIul usage of, &C.

An acquaintance lost his horse, a few
days ago in a manner which would suggest
a habItual caution in driving. The horse
a valuable one. well kept, in good spirits
and IN perfect health, was taken from the
stable aud driven. He had assembled a
long hard hill within the first mile of driv.
my. and as soon as the summit was reached.
the driver, as is the habit ofmany, touched
him tn the whip he spraug, stopped,
staggered, and fell and by the time the driv-
er could allght from the carriage, he wa
dead. An examination showed that a large
blood vessel near the heart had been rup-
tured. No appearance Of disease could be
detected
Now there would be in the same circum-
stances always a danger Of a similar occur
renee Especially it The stomach should
happen to be filled, as it would be directly
after a full meal.
Every Increase OF the muscular action of
any animal produces an increase in the ra-
pIdlty OF the circulation of the blood
Green-Mountain freeman. [volume] (Montpelier, Vt.) 1844-1884, 1852-12-02

This arises from two causes, one mechan.
ical, as the compression of the blood YES
seIa by the muscular contraction and
one physical, as the necessity Tor the more
rapid publication OF the blood in a period
OF exercise.
Physiology teaches that every muscular
action is attended with a waste of material
of the body, as in a %gaIvanic action when
zinc is used in the circuit, at each period
Of action portions Of the zinc are destroyed.
This waste portion of the animal solid goes
into the blood and must be discharged
mainly from the blood in the lungs. The
more violent the muscular action the more
Of this waste matter is given to the blood,
and this once loaded with it is useless un-
til it has been purified in the lungs. Con-
sequently the blood is sent to the lungs in
a vastly increased current, and the breath
ing becomes more rapid to introduce larger
portions of air to the blood in the lungs
Here, then, are increased quantities Of air
in the lungs at the same time, producing a
state of ~iulIness if the lungs have good
plhJ' Dul " LbC OlOllidOu 10 lull anu p'Coo-
ing upon The cavity ofthe lungs, it is easy
to see that a great pressare Of blood in the
lungs and the great cavities of the heart
must fake place. Almost every person has
experienced the sharp pain and distress
produced by this state Of ltnngs after hav-
ing run a little way sh@psy, not being ac-
c%ustomed to the exercise. 1t is not diff
cult to see howSin this crowded state of
vessels, a sudden and powerful muscular
e~xertion should cause rupture Of come of
the distended vessels of the system.
When a rupture Of a blood vessel does
not result oIjentimes so much injury is
done to the delicate membrane of the air
cells as q produce an incurabIe heaves.
We were early taught this lesson OF care
in driving, by an old stage proprietor of
whom we once had a pair of horses for a
journey. "The only caution," said he, 81
care to give you about driving, is never to
start quick from the top of a hill you have
just ascended. If you do you may spoil
the horses wind."-Granitc Farmer.

Fine Potatoes of a New Species.

The Philadelphia Ledger has been shown
by MIR E. Walker, some species of a new
KIND Of potato, which he has raised on his
country seat at WOODBURY., about half a
mule from the falls Of the Sch4yIklIl. The
seed is from Nova Scotia, and the potatoe
attracting the attention of Mr.. W. by It's

twelve rows, OF the same length, of the Mer-
Ger potato, from New Jersey, doing moth

Twelve rows Of Mercer yielded two-and a.
half barrels of potatoes from the four
rows Of Nova Scotia potato he obtained
sin barrels. The weight of one Of the po-
latoes which Mr.. w. showed US was two
pounds nlne ounces; the weight of four
potatoes, eight pounds six ounces and
there were hundreds Of others, of the same
extraordinary size, in the yield. The APP

the great yield he obtained from this potato
To the fact that the rows were planted suffi-
clenIly wide apart to give light, air and
room to the foliage The distance between
the rows was five feet. This was purely
accidental, as bis ground had been occu-
pied by straw5ury beds planted that dis.

strawberries he planted his potatoes. The

growth, pronounced them Il failure, as they

A Good One.

Lndicrous plumbers sometimes o%ccnt2fn
cases where ignorant PERSONS attempt the
use of language about The meaning of which
they know nothing.
Not long since, while travelling from
Pittsburg TO Cincinnati, two rather verdant
s%pecimens Of The female sex came on board
the boat at one of the landings, who, for
the sake of distinction we will call Mary
and Jane. Now, Mary had cut her eve
teeth, or in other words, was acquainted
with the rules and regulations which govern
penteeI society. Jane, the younger, had
never mixed in society to any great extent,
and was therefore in bllssful ignorance as
to any of The rules which govern refined
people. Her language, too, was only such
as she had heard among her rustic associates.
Mary was aware of the fact, and had there
fore cautioned her to observe how she
(Mary) acted, aud to govern herself accor.
dinghy. Jane promised implicit obedience.
Shortly after, while seated at the dIuner ia.
Bile, the waiter asked Mary what part OF the
fowl she would have.
She informed him, i'll a very polite way,
that it was "perIeclly immateriaI" He
accordingly gave her IA piece and then en-.
CURED Of Jane what part she preferred
The simple minded girl replied with all the
seli.assnrauce imaginable
II believe I'll take a piece of the imma-
terial, too"
The scene that followed this declaration
is bevOpd the power of the pen to describe.
The assembled company were compelled TO
give vent to their surcbarged feelings in
peaIs of boiSterous Laughter whilst the
poor girl, her face sniused with crimson
bushes, left the table, declaring as she fed

A New BoNNET.-The ladies should be
ON the lookout for a new style Of bonnet.
The London Moraing Chronicle ola recent
date announces "A new chapeau, called "the
Dipthera," a Partisan invention, the mate
rial of which is leather. 1t is announced
as foIIows:-
Madame Duhay D'GoIberg, whose name
is known throughout civilized Eur, pc as
the presiding Goddess Of Fashion, has Just
aslonIshed her %votaries by a production of "a
chapcau. The hlstoryoflhis novelty is some
what curious, and peculiarly marks the
character Of the Partisan. Madame d.
Goldberg, about to retire fall of honors, was
struck with the desire to leave a something
which should attach a%"glory to her name"
Fired with the notion, and in the pure spir-
1t of "a French woman, she seized upon a
kin Of polished patent-Ieather and in an
Instant converted it into a bonnet. Yes, a
bonnet-charn ing as ever claimed Paris as
It's birthplace! Madame has secured "A pa
tent for her ingenuity, and has conferred
upon Messts. Jay, of Regent street, the
exclusive right Of tile sale in this country
Of those made in black and violet. The
possession OF these bounets has already be-
come a perfect .turOr in Paris and the
really beautiful way in which the material
is made suhservient TO every style of wearer,
from the truly coqnetlish to the sombre OF
demure, fully justified this distinction.
