| city were summoned to his aid Everything
seemed imbued with the deepest sorrow and
dismay in apprehension of his speedy death.
No lie than fourteen champions of the
healing art attended him in consultation, a
council in whom was vested the most exalted
talent, reputed skill, and renowned character
oil that age. In such combination of pow
ers we should naturally expect something
really miraculous. And it was so, for such
miraculous contradiction and confusion never
was heard Of In the blending of SO much
skill, wisdom, anxiety, and terror, there was
the utmost contradiction Of each other and
themselves. Their opinions were almost as
varied as their numbers They seemed not
to be guided by any fixed rules of inquiry
Reason and judgement gave the reign to fan.

of epilepsy, others apoplexy, others fever, ant
some, in the rage of fancy founded upon pas
occurrences opposed that he was poisoned
The majority decided that it was stroke o.
apoplexy; to which opinion we are inclined
Judging from the few symptoms related in tn,

Now for the treatment, which deserves es
pecial notice. :" He was bled largely. Ho
iron was applied to his head. A loathsom
volatile SALT extracted from human skulls, wa
forced into his mouth. These are some Q

ART OF MILKING,

The art of milking we'll is not taught in
hurry. 1t requires long practice to milk
properly, and therefore all the young people
on farm ought to be shown how the labor
should be done. 1t is quite important that
this branch Of the dairy should be particular.
ly attended to, for good mixer obtains at
least quart more from the same COW than a
poor nilker. ..-
The first lesson to be taught to young pso-
pie is gentleness and kindness to the, COWS.
They never need be treated harshly, in case
business is properly commenced. Cows that
have been caressed and uniformity we'll treated
are fond of having the milk drawn from the
udder at the regular time Of milking. for it
gives them relief from the distension Of the
milk ducts. lgs
Let young people be put to milking the far
row COWS FIST, or such as are to DO soon dried
and then the loss from bad milking will be
less injurious the hand should ex, tend to the
extremity Of the teats, for the milk is then
drawn easier.., They should be taught to milk
as fast as possible More milk is always oh.
tanned by rapid mixer than by slow one
They should therefore be taught to think Of
nothing else while milking, and no conysrsa.
ton must be permitted in the milk yard.

FALL TREATMENT OF TREES.

Mr.. FREAs Many who attempt the cul-
tivation of fruit and ornamental trees, fail
from not paying sufficient attention to them in
the fall. The tall Of the leaf is often criti-
cal time with most trees, and they consequent
y require more attention than at any other
times. Trees that have been recently set, and
which have not had time to radicatc, or send
out vigorous laterals for their support, gener-
ally receive considerable injury from the au-
tumn winds, the swaying to which they are
exposed, causing laceration OF the radicals
which not unfrcquently operates fatally, and
is always to a greater or less extent injurious
even where the effect is not clearly apparent
All trees should be secured from this evil by
stakes fixed in the soil, as soon as they are set
out. This precaution will often be the means
of saving much expense, and the loss of many
valuable trees. In the spring, as soon as the
frost is fairly out of the soil, the sward should
be removed, and manure dug in around the
roots. Compost, formed Of forest scrapings
stable manure, chip manure, wood ashes, old
lime and gypsum, constitutes most excellent
stimulant for young trees. In setting apple
trees, l have found that few quarts Of lime
deposited in the holes before the trees arr
placed in position, causes rapid and vigor
GUS start, and secures healthy development
through the subsequent periods of growth
After filling in, which should be done Will
great care, generally, in the case of young
trees, cover the surface with spent tan, fine
chips, saw-dust, or straw. A good mulchins
article for plum trees, is found in salt hay, tn
iuvigorating and sanatory effects of which
upon most species of the plum, which is o
marine origin, is remarkable. When it can
not be easily obtained, ordinary fresh hay
wet with solution Of salt, may be used as
substitute. But Of all articles used, chi
manure, when fine, is probably the most valu
able; it lasts for long period, acts as an Ell
fcent non-conductor, keeping the soil mois
and warm, and prevents the growth of weeds
AS it decomposes, it supplies healthfu an
invigoratiug pabulum to the roots, aad re
stores to the soil portion of the alimentar

tai trees are rarely transplaated as they Shout
be. The work is generally performed BY me
who have no Interest in the labor, and VIII,
feeling themselves perfectly irresponsible, al
of course Indifferent to the result. No wor

MARRY THE WoMAx.-Some young men
marry dimples, some ears; the mouth, too
is occasionally married, the chin not SO often.
The other day young follow was head over
heels and ears in love with braid, braid,

hair which, descending from the forehead,
forms sort Of mouse's nest over the car. lie
was SO far gone in his nfatuation, that he be.
came engaged to his braid; but the Eugene
mode of hair-dressing coming in just then, the
charm was dissolved, and there is no present
appearance of its being renewed? What dc
young men marry? Why they marry these
and many other bits of scraps of wife, in
stead of the true thing; and then, after the
wedding they are surprised to find that, al
though married, they have no wives. He that
would have wife, must marry woman.

SNEEINa IN CouRr.-Some time ago, dur

bly,, a slight sprinkliug Of cowhage about the

By this time the epidemic had extended to

House Of Representatives during a prosy

Soil OF FRANcE.-Frauce has naturally a
magnificent soil. l prefer it, all things con-
sdered, to that OF our own Western States.
We have much land that is richer at the out
set, but very little that will hold its own in
defiance Of maltreatmeut so well as this does.
Lime abounds hero in every form; the rail-
roads are often cut through hills of loose
chalk-and very much of the suhsoil in this
vicinity appears to be a rotten limestone or
gypsum, but is said to be marine deposit
proved such by the in6pity of shells there
Embedded. There is not a particle of stone
in the surface soil the rotten gypsum is, for
the most part, easily traversed by the pillow,
though at depth of ten or twenty feet the
same original formation may be found hard
enough to quarry into building stone. To re-
enforce such soil, after the exhaustion pro-
duced by hundred grain crops in succession,
it is only requisite to run the pillow two inches
deeper than it has hitherto gone--a process
urgently desirable on other grounds than this.

UsE OF SALT IN COOKING VEGETABLES
Here is something everybody ought to have
known long ago, and that everybody should
now read and remember:
If one portion Of vegetables be boiled in
pure distilled or rain water, and another in
water to which little salt has been added, a
decided differences is perceptble in the ten
derness of the two. Vegetables boiled in pnre
water are vastly interior. This inferiority
may go so tar, in the case of onions, that they
are almost entirely destitute of either taste or
odor, though when cooked in salted water, in
addition to the pleasant salt taste, peculiar
sweetness and strong aroma. They also
contain more solublematter than when cooked
in pure water. Water which contains l-420th
of its weight of salt is far better for cooking
vegetables than pure water, because the salt
hinders the solution and evaporation Of the
soluble and flavoring principles of the veget-
ables.-,Sci Am

JACKS L1BERALITY.-Not long since, man.
of-war's man stepped into Post Office, and,
addressing the Postmaster, asked:
DO you know Jim jenkins
Not T. replied the Postmaster why did
you ask 2
Because I want you to give letter to
him., replied the sailor; saying which he pro-
cured an epistle.
Very WE'LL said the Postmaster, the let.
ter will be sent to him; but you must put a
stamp on it,
How the duce can you send a letter to
Jim jenkins unless yon know him 2, inquired
the tar.
'Oh, that does not matter answered the
Postmaster, { can send the letter, but it will
cost you stamp
'Stampr cried the sailor, show me one.
A stamp was accordingly shown to him
when he exclaimed:
No, SILVER me if I put Jim jenkins off
with penny, for he often spent crown upon
me-havent you got anything handsomor
than this 2
The Postmaster replied in the affirmative
and showed him twopenny stamp.
We'll, cried Jack, this looks more decent
but haven't you got anything better?'
The Postmaster showed him a shilling
stamp, which Jack inspected with an expires
sion of approval, saying:
All right-put five of them on the letter
SILVER my timbers! I will never send jim
jenkins less than five shillings worth
Saying this, he threw down five shillings Of
the counter took up the five shllings' stamps
and stuck them on the letter, which he the
threw into the letter box with an expressio
of satisfaction having spent crown on Jir
jenkins.
