ADoG SToRY.-A friend ofours owns noble
great New foundland dog, about which he tells
good many funny stories, among which is the fol-
lowing espent several weeks during the last
summer in farming village. accompanied by his
dog Boney, an abbrevaton of Bonaparte, his true
NAME Now Boney is an educated gentlemanly
dog, conscious of his own strength, and from very
magnaminity pays no attention to small animals
that bark and snarl at, or even bite him. He
had been taught to fetch and carry, and it was
only necessary to point out any article to him
that he could lift, and order him to bring il a
long, and Boney would bring it. small Span
lei about the size ola cat was in the daily habit
Of imposing upon the good nature of Boney, inn
pndently attacking him, seizing HIM by the long
hair or hind legs shaking and growing away as
if he were really somebody, all Of which Boney
bore with christian forbearance, never even show
ing his ivory, but trotting away with dignitied
contempt from his puny assailent.
One day our friend was walking out with his
dog, when the little spaniel, full of importance,
made his usual attack upon Boney.-"Fetch him
along,'' said our friend, pointing TO the spaniel.
No sooner said than done, Boney bounced upon
him, and rolling him ever and over without hurt
ing him, took him by the nape Of the neck, and
trotted along after his master with all the dignity
ofbeing in the performance ola pleasant duty.
The little dog Yelled and howled, and struggled,
but there was no use in talking. Boney trolted
round his master, with the spaniel in his mouth,
as a cat may sometimes be seen carrying one Of
her little ones, greatly to the amusement Of all
The boys in the village. At length his master
ordered the prisoner TO be released, when the
little animal, thoroughly humbled, drew bee
line for home He gave Boney wide berth af-
ter that.--.dLbGny Register

FsYThe following, which we copy from the
Springfield Republican, carries the more authori-
ty whit as coming from one of the medical pro-
fessioD.
BEARDs.-Theoretically we go for boards
Nothing but lack of hair and moral courage
keeps the tuft from our upper lip, and luxuri-
GUS crop from the expensive semi-circle of our
lower jaw. We believe thatnature made nothing
in vain, and that she never planted hair on the
face of mau to be shaved off, daily or tri-weekly
with the usual tortues that accompany the
process. Especially do we believe the growth
and preservation of hair upon the face conducive
to health in this severe climate, where the deli
cate organs of the throrr, some of the most deli
cate in the human organism, are exposed lying
near the surface they do to daily chills and
and changes of temperature. The mustache is
natural 'respirator, softening the temperature of
the air as it passes to the lungs, while the beard
below protects the throat.
Every barber well knows that those who have
the most delicate skin are those whose beard is
the heaviest while those whose skin is the thick
est, and is kept soft by the well effected Office of
the appropriate glands, have but little hair We
cannot see how the indications of nature, in this
mistaken. Besides, it is the appropriate distinc-
tlon of physical manhood, and decided addition
to muscular dignity and beauty.
The best painters all understand this. Think
of representation of one of the old patriarcha
with smoothly shaver chin and upper lip =
Think of painting of the Savior of mankind,
whose physical chara cteristics we have reason to
believe, we're not less faultless than his moral,
thus mutilitedl The idea is repulsive and ridc-
ulous. We rejoice that boards are coming into
fashion, and give it as a well considered opinion
that if they were universally adopted, the mortal
ity by tracheal, bronchial and general pulmonary
disease, would be reduced by large per centage.

NEBRAsKA.-The New York Evening Post,
speaking IN regard TO public opinion in the city
and State OF New York, upon this subject, says
In this great city, and this great State, public
opinions is nearly unanimous in its condemnation
Of the bad faith, shameless msconsruction of
existing laws, and total disregard Of The peace of
the Union, which make up this proceeding. The
more it is considered in its various aspects, the
more detestabe it appears After all the con-
cessons which have been made for the sake
Of peace-after all that the North has done in
submitting TO conditions most ungrateful and od-
ious when first presented-aiter the example it
had set Of iorbearance, endurance, acquescence
in measures which were regarded by large
part of them as a surrender of their righs--this
last attempt TO force them from ground fairly
theirs, soemny guaranteed TO them, made over
to them for consideration, which the South has
received awakens general establishment and in
dignalion.

desirous of thus publicly expressing their oppose

Pondeut of the N. Y Tribune says;
The whole people here, irrespective Of party,

DEEP PLowlNG.-H. E. Foote. Secretary
fthe ST. Lawrence IN. W Agriculture Socie-
ty, writes as follows 10 the editors Of the Coun"
Try Gentleman, as embracing his experience in
deep culture: (@l
Three years ago this spring purchased q
worn-out farm, as 1t was termed, and in the au-
tumn plowed twenty four acres Of meadow with
Michigan sub-soil pillow, from ten TO twelve in
ches deep-sowed eighteen acres with spring
wheat, and stocked. The balance was planted
TO corn, well-manured with yard and special
manures.-A strip rod in width, by the side OF
this corn, was plowed with an ordinary pillow and
common depih-both treated alike; the latter
yielded from forty to fifty bushels per acre--the
former double those amounts. The meadows
produced this season, second moving, two and
hall tons and upwards per acre, good timothy
hay.-Thls land was tolerably MANFRED and well
drained. | took another old meadow Of seven
acres, two years since, alter cutting less than
ton per acre-plowed as before, rolled thorough
y, drained completely, and, as could not spare
manure fol it, srwed winter wheat and stocked
without manures and in a few days since Ketch-
um's moving machine cut from that seven acres,
inside of three hours lime, twenty large loads of
hay, over two and half tons per acre, being the
first crop.
With this pillow no summer faow Is necessary
the pow may follow The rake-and hereafter
shall raise no crops on meadows, but manure
and stock forthwith. intend to turn about forty
acres next season, and to follow the Michigan
pillow with sub-soH pillow, to cultivate fourteen
inches in depth, and have no doubt that my
neighbors who are complaining Of the drought
will see that my farm is no" altogether spoiled
by deep blowing, and that three ions per acre
will be produced, drought or no drought.

The Rain that Caused Insanity

Once on May morning fell shower
All whom it wetted turned insane;
One man alone, in lucky hour,
~ Gas then he thought escaped the rain.
1t chancc'd amid the springing wheat
He stood, the fair fields gazing over;
But saw black clouds above him meet
Ran fast, and gat him under cover.
Next day the nadmen seorned the wise;
One Struck him fillips on the nose
One pok'd his fingers at his eyes
One gave him kicks, another blows
One, laughing, cried "That idiot see !"
Our martyr, now completely fretted,
Exclaimed, 'tNo peace remains for me,
'TillI, too, like the rest am wetted'
A pool, made by the rain, he found
Bath'd, and was cur'd of common sense,
The neighbors ran, few, rush'd around,
To greet him with due Difference
Some bowling low, some fattering loud,
Some gifts with eager kindness handing,
He march'd off with the joyous crowd,
Now match'd with them in understanding

IMPURE CASA gentleman in this city has
directed his attention for some time past, to the
quality of the gas which we burn, and has come
to the conclusion that we could have the
pare article, at less expense to the company, and
with more comfort and advantage to the commu-
nifty, if there was some improvement made in the
mode Of manufacturing it. The gas we burn is
grossly impure, hence the dim fame, and dis
agreeable odour, and the smoke which accoDpa-
MES its consumption.
Our correspondent has frequently taken a
wire, wound round with cotton thread and pass
ed it horizontally through the glass chimney of
his argand. In half an hour ball of lamp black,
as large as common ounce ball, would be col
lected on the wire. If any one doubts, let him
try the experiment for himself.
Could the gas company not remedy this evil.
