A Doc SroRY.-We were touched
by simple statement Of the loss of a
boy and the fidelity of a dog in last
weeks Caledonia. The boy fell into
the river in Barton unseen by any one
but girl. A large dog, owned near
by, heard the splash, ran to the spot
and leaped into the stream. 1t was
just dark. and boy and dog disappear
ed before any help arrived at the spot.
Next day the bodies Of the two we're
taken from the water together, the dog
grasping the boys coat and vest collar
in bis mouth, and the arms Of the boy
c'asped around the dogs body. So
firmly were they united in the struggle
of death, that it was with no little
difficulty they were separated. The
grasp Of the boy around the dog was
such as to prevent him from using his
legs. Otherwise he would doubtless
have rescued the boy.-Burl;ngton

equivalent lost in the mails, is refund

moneys carried off by Kupper we're

estate of the defaulter in St. Louis to
recover it back.
The court held that the petition Of
his Majesty dose not show good cause

To PREVENT HoRsEs BEING TEAsED
BY FLIEs.-Take two or three small
handfuls of walnut leaves, upon which
pour two or three.quarts ofcold water !;
let it infuse one night, and pour the
whole. next morning, into a kettle,
and boil for quarter of hour when
cold it is fit for use. Moisten a sponge
With it, and before the horse goes out
Of the stable, let those parts which are
most irritable, be smeared over with
the liquor. Every merciful man who
uses horse during the hot months,
should promote his comfort by this
simple measure.
