TIE WAY TO KILL RATs.-A writer in
the Rochester Union proposes new meth
cd for killing rats. His own house being
overrun with the vermiu, the servant girl,
who had seen the effect of cold Bourbon
Whiskey" on bipeds, thought she would
try an experiment on the rats. Accordiny-
ly she took small quantity, made it very
sweet with sugar, crumbled in bread enough
for the crowd, and sat the dish in the eel
lar. A few hours after she went down and
found several rats gloriously s'fuddled." en-
gagged in throwing beanpods and hauling
one another up to drink. These were east
ly disposed of, and those not killed left the
premises Immediately after, suffering with
the headache. The writer adds that the
medicine is quite agreeable to take.

CHARCOAL FOR SwIEE.-It is not, per-
laps, generally known that one of the best
articles that can be given to swine while in
preparation for the tub, is common char
coal. The nutritive properties are SO great
that they have subsisted on it without other
food for weeks together. Geese, confined
80 as to deprive them of motion, and fat
tened on three grains of corn per day, and
as much coal as they can devour, have be-
come fat in eight days. The hog eats it
voraciously after little time, and is never
sick while he has good supply. 1t should
always be kept in the sty, and fed to the in
mates regularly like all other food.

SPRAINs.-A gentleman of Collinsville,
Illinois, writes that having a severely sprain-
ed ankle, he took teacup full of common
salt and pint of sweet milk, and boiled
them together till of the consistency of a
poultioe, then spread this On cloth, and
bound it round the ankle. The next NOR
ming there was little weakness. but the
soreness and lameness had all gone. Our
correspondent says that cider vinegar with
salt. is also good, and just as good for hor-
ses and cattle as for men, and should be ap-
piled in the same way.

HINT FOR FEVER AND AGUE FOLKS
The ,SeaLpel for October-Dr. Dixon's al
ways interesting medical review, has cor
respondent who insists that ''fever and
ague" has nothing to do with marsh mias-
ma, but is the result of solar evaporation.
He asserts that, If your residence be sur
rounded by trees, so as to admit no direct
rays of the sun, but yet sufficiently clear
of underground to allow of free ventilation,
+ intermittent fever of all kinds may be in
the vicinity. The idea is worth dissem-
ination.

.AeRIcULruRE AND REPUBLIc AssIsA.-
Hoh.sWm O. Rives delivered s ysrf elo-
quent address al the Agricultural Fan 10
Virginia. Among other things he said
.sWe sometimes hear that cotton Is king.
But the agriculture of America, as ats po-
htieal constitution, is republican. Towns
.In no dynasty of privilege or power. If any
one of those noble plants which constitute
the chosen vegetable races OF the new world
could fairly aspire to royalty, it would be
that prince of cereals, Indian corn, a proud
native soil, lifting high its imperial form
and tasslsd banner above all its compeers,
and on. the universality of its uses and It's
presence, founding a claim to universal
sway. But the genius of American agri-
culture, whose vital principle is freedom,
accords invidious prominence to none.'

Forest Hill--Junction of the Ne
osho and Cottonwood Rivers.

FOREST HILL, with its numerous advan-
Il tages, is now paramount to all other places.
as it Is situated the north side and to the
Junction of the Neosho and Cottonwood Rivers
The elevated position which the above named town
occupies, gives commanding view of the eeun-
try all around, confirming the many hattering re-
ports which have already been made by all trav-
elers, who are constantly coming this way to fill
up the fertile valleys of the NeOsho and Cotton
wood. The clear, cold water OF the streams tells
well for the health and prosperity of the country
The abundance of sand which the Neosho and
Cottonwood furnish, makes this location more de-
| sirable than any south of the Kanzas River.
Limestone and building stone of the very best
quality readily be obtained in unlimited guam
titles with little or no expense. Contracts are be
| ing made for lime at the kiln for 25 cents per
bushel.
Two brick kilns are in successful operation, the
first and only yards of the kind in this section of
country, and contracts are being made at six dol
lars per thousand. A steam mill, within q
stones throw of the town. is in active operation,
and contracts daily filled of the best quality of
| lumber for $25 and $40 per thousand feet. A sec
Ond Saw and Grist mill, on large and extensive
scale, will soon be completed by the Messrs Baker
| The BIacksmitling and Plow factory is being
carried on by Messrs. Stevenson & Bunnell, who
are supplying the country with home manufactur-
| ed articles, thus preparing the way for the hus-
bandman to turn over the soil in order that part
of the grassy plains may give way for the golden
grain which will soon cover this valley far and
wide.
The large number of buildings which are al
ready under contract give full assurance that a
large town must soon spring up. Two Stores are
now prepared for trade. The vanguard of Emil
grants who have not yet found home this
fertile soil are invited TO to the rich Valley
| the Neosho and share with those who are busy at
work building for themselves homes in the land OF
the west.
The most direct route and best road from Leav-
enworth and the Missouri river is by way of To-
peka where the emigrant can cross the Kanzas rv-
er by the elegant and substantial bridge just fin
ished. the first and only bridge that river:
thence by way of Brownville, Wilmington and
Wat rlOo TO Forest Hill, thus making direct and
good route to Eagle City, Shell Rock Falls, Verdi
girls and Walnut creek country.
The natural crossing which the Junction af
fOrds, is of the many reasons why the south
ern emigration crosses this way. Preparations arr
being made for the speedy construction of good
Bridge at the Junction, for the better aceommOda-
ton of the emigrant

tive to the above named Forest HILL direct to Col
