Mrs. Sanders is much better but is look
ing very pale. We believe she does not
yetknow that her husbands brother is dead,
supposing he has been saved as she was.
She is so far recovered that she will be re-
moved to Springfield to day.
And thus ends wicked affair, and one of
the most startling which has ever occurred
in Bellows Falls. May the like never oc-
cur again.

FELT HATS. The editor Of the Central
Presbyterian, in speaking of felt hats, dis
courses in the following style Of good sense /:
" Indeed this is the only sensible hat now
worn. Instead Of the shiny hard and Stiff
fur or silk hat, so lately universal-a perpet-
nal annoyance to the owner !; in his way in
every conveyance, and in every crowd ; never
protecting him from sun or rain, but keeping
him anXiously trying to protect it; very
much in the shape, and abont as pleasant to
the head as a section of Stove pipe woud he !;
always getting blowcd off, or mashed, or
weatherstained instead of all this we now
have the broad -brimmed, flexible bodied,
easy fitting hat, without fir on it, or stiienng
init; never binding the brow, or causing
headache: never injured by rough handling !:
always in shape, if shape it light be called,
which shape has none; always shading the
face from the sun, and shchering it from
storm ; and last though least the prettiest
hat. if beauty is associated with utility, and
the fitness of things this is one of the hats
which constitutes one Of the most to- be lallded
inventions of the present day. one which
should universally supplant it absurd prele-
ecssor, and be worn by u Il classes, cl.rgymen
included"

In vain the balmy breath of Spring
In waited DER the land,
in vain the joyous MATHIS ring
From Natures vocal band;
The blessed breeze no longer brings
Its gladnrss to our home,
But Il wall of sadlcncd pity springs
Nherc'rr its brrathings come;
For onr blessed one. cur beautiful,
Still, pale and cold doth lie.
And the sonl that lit her lovely life
Is waited to the sky.

We know she trralS the crystal courts

We know her happy Shouts Of praise
Are Joined with angels songs,
And Il heavenly harp # harmony
Now unto her belongs
But alas! our hearts will not unlearn
This cold and anguiShed ache,
Nor will our eyes inrbcar the tears
That are flowing for her sake.
Omr bnrdcacd hearts arc sinking low
Beneath this weight of grief;
Our faltering footsteps scarcely seek
The fountain Of relief:
But Faith lifts up our droopmr souls,
\ :. still small voice - we hear.
We know the One that dealt the" blow,
In pity now stands near.
Oh! Father, Father, teach us how
To spare our blessed one;
Aud in our stricken anguish bow
And say, " Thy will be done"

WHY SowS DESTROY THEIR YoUNG.-.A
writer in the Homestead gives an article on
this subject, in which he argues very concl,l-
sivcly, that "costiveness and its accompany
ing evils are the main causes of sows destroy
ing their young and proper food is the pre-
yen'ive and cure" This causes extreme rest
lessncss, often almost frenzy, and the pains
of labor increase it until they destroy their
young, or any other living thing within their
power. "Green food is the cure" If sows
are confined in pens at any season. and espec-
ially in early spring, they should have q
daily supply of green food for sone weeks
before ltterirg Potatoes, sugar, beets. car
rots parsnips, and such like are excellent

TIE TuRcos.-Mr. Williams, the Travelled

not kabylcs, but All aggregation of Arabs,
Negroes and Spanards. A more motley and
savagc-looking set Of fellows one never laid
eyes on. They delight in setting all the pro-
prctIcs at defiance. Their manners are
coarse to brutality, and their morals execra-
bic. Brave, but reckless, hardy but unprin-
cipled, war hecomesa a pastime to them, and
peace bore. In Algeria, where they have
been trained and reared, they are the terror
OF honest citizens in times of peace. Loung-

MANAGEMENT OF HORSES. Never attempt
to clean or otherwise disturb your horse VIII lie
eating his meals, unless you want him to bite
and kick. But when you clean take him ont
of stall, and make business of it. Tic your
horse in the centre of the stall, unless you
want him to do, as most horses. do drive

that are liable TO cast themselves in their

CHANGING SEED.-A writer in the Neu

remembered by all practical cntivators. =
Corn, pumpkins beans, and garden seeds, do
better by frequently changing the seed and

SOMETHING WORTH Knowing One day
last week, while purchasing lot of dried
fruit, we discovered small pieces of sassarras
bark mixed amongst 1t. and upon inquiry,
were informed that it was preventative e
against the worm. 1t is said that dried fruit
put away with little bark, (say'a large
handful to the bushcl,) will save for years,
unmolested by these troublesome little insect,
which often destroys hundreds of bushels in
a single season. The remedy is cheap and
simple, and we venture to say good one.
