The Little Garman story.

a eountryman one day, returning from
the citys took home with him five of. the
finest peaches one could possibly desire
to see, and as his children never bsheld
the fruit before, they reioiced over them
exceedingly. calling them ine apples
with. rosy cheeks. and soft plumslihe
skins. The father divided them amona
his four children and retained one for
their mother. In the evening. ere tile
children retired to bed, their father
questioned them by asking, Howgdid
you like the soft rosy apples 2" Very
much indeed, dear father, said the eldest
boy. 1t is beautiful fruit--so acid and
yet so nice and soft to the taste, have
carefully preserved the stone, that I
might cultivate tree {" Right, and
brayely done" said the fathers and
that speaks we'll for regarding the future
with care, and is becoming in young
husbandman." "1 have eaten mine and
thrown the stone away said the young
est. besides which mother gave me half
of hers. Oh it tasted so sweet. aud
so melting in my mouth Indeed, an
swerd, the father, thou hast not been pru,
dent. However it was very natural and
and shows wisdom enough for
your years." 81 have picked up. the
stone which my brother threw away"
said the second son, /" cracked it and eat
en- the kernel-it was as sweet as a nut
to the taste-but my peach have sold
for much money, and when l go to the
city can buy twelve of them" Tho
parent shook his head reproachingly,
saying, " Be ware. my boy, OF avarice.
Prudence is all very well. but such con-
duct as yours is unnatural and unchild-
like. Heaven guard thee, my child, from
the fate of miser. And you, Edmund?"
asked the father, turning to his third son;
he frankly and openly replied, have
given my peach to the son Of our neigh
bOr-the sick George, who had fever, he
would not take it, SO left it on his bed,
l have just come away" Now" said
the father, "who has done the best with
his peach % Brother Edmund" the
three exclaimed aloud /" Brother Eds
mund !" Edmond was still and silent,
the mother kissed him with tears in her
eyes.

Gen. 1yoshington,s Last Vote.

A correspondent of the Charleston
Courier relates the following interesting
circumstance
81 was present when Gen. Washington
gave his last vote. 1t was in the spring
Of 1893, in the town of Alexandria. He
died the 1Ith Of December following
The court House of Fairfax county was
then over the market house, and immedi-
ately fronting Gadsby's tavern. The en-
trance into it was by a slight flight of
crazy steps on the outside. The election
was progreSsing-several thousands Of
persons in the court house yard and iIn>
mediate neighboring streets !; and l was
standing on Gadsby's steps when the
Father of his Country drove up, and im~
mediately approached the court house
steps and when within yard or two of
them, saw eight or ten good looking
men, from different directions, certainly
without the least concert, spring slmul~
taneously, and place themselves in posi-
tions to uphold and support the steps
should they fall in the Generals ascent
of them. 1 was Immediately at his back,
and in that position entered the court
house with him-followed in his wake
through a dense crowd TO the polls
heard him vote-returned with him to
the outward crowd-heard him cheered
by more than two thousand persons as
he entered his carriage-and saw his de-
parture. There were five or six candi~
dates on the bench sitting; and as the
General approached them, they rose in a
body and bowed smilingly =; and the salu>
tation having been returned very grace
fully, the General Immediately cast his
eyes towards the registry of the polls,
when Col. Deneal I think it was) said ;
" Well, General, how do you vote ?''-
The General looked at the candidates,
and said" Gentlemen, 1 vote for meas
ures, not for men - and turning to the
recording table, audibly pronounced his
vote-saw it entered-made a graceful
bow and retired"

long as things 60 on by the prescribed
regulation, alI.is we'll. But when an un-
ruly monster like Sebastopo1 stands across
the path, and will not be trodden down to
order, the country cries and the press
thunders for head, preferriug even the
rude Pelissier before Raglan.
The Morning Post says of Gen. Simp-
son, Lord Raglan's successor
Gen. Simpson has seen considerable
service and enjoys high professional re-
putation. During the Peninsular war he
was present at the defence of Cadj and
the attack on Seville. He served and
was wounded at Quatre Bras in 1915 /;
was engaged in 1845 as second in CONS
mand to the late Sir Charles Napier in
Scinde. Sir G. Napier considered him
his best officer, and he believed that Lord
Ellenborough, when Governors General,
had the highest opinion of him, and in
the event Of any accident happening to
Sir Charles. would have charged Gen.
Simpson with the conduct of the war
The high official position Gen. Simpson
has filed since the present Government
sent him to the Crimea, has necessarily
placed him in constant communication
with the French commander, with whom
we are confident he will maintain the COR
dial relations that have existed without
between the chiefs of the ex-
pediatory forces.

Enstern Horses.

Most European horses like to teaze their
riders +; the Eastern horses would as soon
think of flying. Nine out of ten English
horses, if an accident happens to your
saddle or bride, will select that very mo
ment for some display of energy or temper.
l have known many AnatolIan horses
whom you could stop in full career simply
by taking your foot out of one of the STIR
rups. Not that they are tame and spirit
less ; far from it. Let the AnatoIian
horse know that his rider sits firm in the
saddle, that his feet presses equally in
either stirrup, that the bride is all right
and that prancing and curvelting are de-
sired, and he will play at that game with
spirit enough, to satisfy even the most
fsstidious hOrseman. If the rider is up
for a neck or nothing race, his horse is
the horse to dash forward at all risks
But if his master is faint and weak, the
same horse feels for him, and will carry
him carefully and tenderly, as a good
nurse does sick child. If you ride him
over broken ground he will take the great
est care and if he falls you may be sure
ne Will taIl in such manner as to hurt
himself and not you. Our young officers
are rather reckless riders. l have heard
Of scores of falls in full gallop, during this
campaign. never knew any one to
come to harm that had fall with an
Eastern horse. In July last, an hour af-
ter sunset, racing it hard over the dark
ened plain Of Devna. with young officer
OF the Light Division, who since died a
hero's death at Alama, his horse fell in
full career. Horse and rider rolled in the
dust and it was altogether fearful fall
The rider got up bewildered. astonished,
and perfectly sound. The animals knees
and lace were cut; he had put down his
head to break the fall If that accident
had happened with European horse, the
officer would hardly have died in battle

In answer to an inquiry for in
formation as to the best mode of clean
ing and oiling harness. &c, we republsh
the substance of an article given in the
Rural New Yorker:
Observing the good condition and fine
appearance Of the harness of Aid Baker,
proprietor of the most extensive livery
establishment in Rochester, we requested
him to impart to US, for publication, the
moduS operandi by which SO desirable an
object was achieved. In compliance
Herewith he stated the course adopt
ed as the best and most econom-
ical, after twenty years experience
which required considerable attention to
tackling apparatus. His process of OIL
ing and washing harness is substantially
as follows:
Take meats foot oil and ivory or patent
black-the latter we'll pulverized or to
be made so before using. Mix thorough>
ly until the oil is we'll colored or q ute
black. In cool weather the oil should
be warmed before mixing. With the
sponge apply light coat Of the mixture
only what the leather will readily absorb,
unless the harness is very dry, in which
case heavier coating may be necessary.
After the harness is dry-which will be
from two hours TO half or a whole day.
depending upon the weather and the pre-
vious condition Of the leather-wash
thoroughly with soap-suds. In making
the sudS use good CASTLE soap and cold rain
tcUter. Warm water should never be used
on harness leather. Apply the suds with
a sponge. Rub off with buckskin. This
will give your harness a nice glossy SUR
face, and the leather will retain good
color and continue pliablc for months. If
it becomes soied with mud or sweat an
application of soap and water as above
directed (without oiIing) will be sufficient
to give it bright appearance.
Two applications Of this oil and black
mixture Il year, or once every six
months will be sufficient to keep harness
as ordinarily used in good order. 1t may
be necessary for livery men and others
who use harness constantly, to apply the
oil oftener-but in most cases, two oiIings
a year, and washing with suds when soil
ed, will keep harness in good trim for
sight and service. This process will pay
large dividend in extra service and du-
rability-to say nothing of improved ap-
pearance.
Aid B. assures US that the same, or
a very similar application, isjust the thing
for carriage tops which are made of top
leather. The only difference in treat
ment is. that less oil should he used, or
rather lighter coating appIied-and it
should be washed off before drying in, top
leather, being thin and much more pene.
trable than harness. OF course this
mixture would not answer for cnameIed
leather, of which some carriage tops are
constructed.

WHERE MosQuyToEs COME FRoM.-A
writer on etomoIogy. discussing about
these summer pests, thus handles the
subject:
" The mosquito proceeds from the ami
malcule, commonly termed the wiggle-
tall took bowl of clean water and
set it in the sun. In a few days some
half-dozen wiggle>tails were visible
These continued to increase in size until
they were about 3-16ths of an inch in
length. AS they approached their ma
turity they remained longer at the sur
face, seeming to live in the two media
air and water. Finally they assumed a
chrysalis form. and, by an increased
specific gravity, sank to the bottom Of the
bowl. Here, in few hours, perceived
short black furze or hair, growing on
every side of each, until it assumed the
size of minute caterpillar And thus
its specific gravity being counteracted or
lightened, it rapidly foated to the sur
face, and the slightest breath of air watt.
ed it against the side of the bowl. In a
very brief space OF time afterwards, the
wcrm atmosphere hatched out the fy,
and it escaped, leaving its tiny house ups
on the water. How beautiful, yet how
simple
After the water had gone through this
process, found it perfectly free from an
imalcula. Therefore came to the con-
clusion that this wiggle-tail is species
of the shark, who having devoured whole
tribes of animalculae, takes to himself
wings and escapes into different medi,
um to torture mankind, and to deposit
eggs upon the water to produce Other
wiggle- tails, who in turn produce O:hel
mosquitoes.

SENTrMENTAL1sM.-M Swisshelm, ,oftho
Pittsburg Visitor, noticing the publication
of a new love story. says;
All that stuff about woman's love, has
been said over and over again fifty-thou-
sand times, to the great detriment Of the
best interest Of humanity. There is no
kind Of necessity for using the press to
persuade silly girls that it is very ro-
mantle and womanly to love scoundreI
Ito leave her affections unguardcd by
reason Of experience, and drift helpless
ly into shame, and despair, as an evil
dence of her unsuspecting womanhood.
1t is not true that woman's affections
are stronger or more durable than mans.
We think the very opposite is the case.
and that two thirds Of all the women
who pine and die for love. do so for want
Of something better to do. Everything
calculated to make love sickness a be.
coming feminine accomplishment is
great injury but to strcw the path Of
suicide with the flowers Of poesy and 70.
nance is in very high degree reprehen-
siblc.
The best motto TO guard young girl
through the maze of love, is :" Do right
and trust in God". A girl who has
done nothing wrong has little cause to
mourn over the fickleness Of pretended
lover. Better he should change his mind
before marriage than after.
