A Rich Case.

Some years ago an Irishman was knocked
down and robbed He accused man of
having committed the robbery In due time
the case came up for trial. The lrishman
being on the stand was crosS-examined, al
ter having sworn positively to the guilt of
the prisoner, by one of the keenest lawyers.
and something like the following was the
result:

"Was it starIight?'

"Was there any light shining from any
house near by?'
"Devil bit Of house was there any.

well then, 1t there was no moon, no
starlight, no light from any house, and so
very dark that you couldn't even see your
hand before you, how are you able to swear
that the prisoner is the man ? How did you
see him2'
"Why, yer homer, when the spalpeen

him,-the fire flew out iv me eyes so bright

The court, jury. counsel and spectators
exploded with shouts at this quaint idea,

BEeaARs OUrwIrrGD.-Many years ago
an ingenius plan was adopted by the Grand
Duke to rid Florence of beggars, 1t was
proclaimed that every beggar who would
appear in the grand plaza at certain mem
toned lime, would be provided by the
Duke with new suit of clothes, free OF
cost. At the appointed time, the beggars
of the city all assembled, and the Grand
Duke, causing all the avenues to the square
to be closed, compelled the beggnrs to strip
off their old clothes, and gave each one, ac-
cording to promise, new suit. In the old
clothes thus collected, enough money was
found concealed to build beautiful bridge
over the Arno, still called "the beggars'
BRIDGE" and the city for the time being,
was relieved of the beggars by which it had
been previously overrun. as none would give
to the well-dressed individuals who ilnplor.
ed charity, not believing their tale of dis
tress.

SALT FOR HoRsEs-A person who kept
sixteen horses, made the following expert
ment with seven of them, which had been
accustomed to eat salt with their feed -
Lulnps of rock salt were laid in their mang-
ers. These Jumps previously weighed,
were examined regularly, to ascertain what
quantity weekly had been consumed, and
it was repeatedly found, that whenever
these horses we're fed on hay or corn, they
CONSUMED only two and half or three oun-
ces per day. and when they were led with
new hay, they took six ounces per day
This fact should convince us of the expe-
dlence of permitting our cattle the free use
of salt at all times; and it cannot be given
in so convenient form as rock salt, it be.
ing mnch more paatabIe than the other in
a refined state, and by far cheaper. A good
lump should always be kept in box by the
side OF the animal, without fear that it will
ever be taken to excess-Cuhiuator.

BARK BOUND Trees. Some over.wise
people have an idea that when a tree gets
messy and bark bound--the latter but an
other term for want of growth, and weak
ness consequent upon elected cultivation
1T is only necessary to slit the bark up
and down the stem with a ack.knife, and it
will at once spread out aud grow. This is
sheer nonsense. Dig and cultivate the roots
and the bark will take care of itself; with
scraplng off the moss, and washing the
stem with ley or soap suds, or chamber sops
which is quite as good The increased flow
of the sap induced by liberal feeding of
the roofs, will do its bursting of the Glide.
bound'' bark, which is simply its enfeebled
condition as a consequence of its poverty
of root
No one thinks of turning out bony,
starved calf,in the spring, into a clover field
with its sides all split through with knife
in order to add to its growth. And this last
precau,ion is quite as sensible and philoso.
ohical as the other. Nature takes care Of
itself in these particulars. Sap in plenty is
what blood is to animals. Its vigorous flow
reaches every part of its composition, and
gives to each It's proper play and function.
We can show frequent instances of a deere

and manuring the roots and a thorough

For the Freeman.
Rural Occupation.

There is, perhaps, no one thing which
has greater influence on young mans
character, than his occupation. 1t shapes
his manners, his morals, and his intellect
Nothing can have greater tendency to
elevate or degrade young mans progress
in society, than the business he pursues.
Whether he be farmer, mechanic, or a
Observation-Disclosures business he follows,
it has its influence on the mind of the
public. Therefore it is that young men
can be drones or sluggards, continually re-
tardlng the healthy growth of society, or
they can rise, by frugal and industrious ef-
forts, to position in which they may be
helpers, both intellectually and morally, to
every great and glorious cause.
Agriculture, in this country, is the prin-
cipal occupation of man and as it is the
first, so it Is the most important. There is
no class of people more needfnl for the
support of a nation than agricultursts.
Without them, what would nation become
IN course of few years? | answer, our
expectations would cease, and all business
would lie dormant The fact is, we canno,
thrive without them, l ask, then, why il is

and forming complete lining to it. Into
this are fitted as many lamina belonging to
the coffin bone, which sets are elastic and
adherent The edges of qure of paper
inserted leaf by leaf one into another, will
convey asufficient idea of this arrangement
Thus the weight of the animal is supported
by as many elastic springs as there are la
nina in all the feet, amounting to about
four thousand, distributed in the most Sc.
cure manner, since every spring is acted
upon ia an oblique direction. Such is the
continuance of an animal destined to carry
greater weight than that of its own body,
and to carry those, also, under the hazard
of heavy shocks.--M Cn!!oQgb,
