through the bones m the face and brought
him to the g,nund In the instant that pre-
ccdtd stup,lHctiun, he was able to form the
notion that the ceiling Of tie room had fallen
and crushed him. The cannon shot which
plunged into the brain OF Chall.Ss VII. did
not prevent him from Scizing his sword by lhe

for defense was pressed on him by blow
which we would have supposed too trtmcu-
dous to leave an interval for thought. But

Curing Hay.

The following extracts are from the pub

existing IN this matter. ii is an old adagc,

seem to rhlrk that the more sun shcy get
upon their hay the better. Here is the
mistake TO which we aude
BY this process Of over drying in the sun,

hurnrc Of the sun is partly that Of dsill,tion,
and has the power to eXprl not only the
watcry elements contained il plants Tut the
real substance of the plant itself. which goes
to form fat and muscular fibre of all rumnat-

plants. that to produce the most oil. they
tust r0 he dried IN the sun, as it not only
lessons the quantity of oil but also dminishcs
the flavor. Now, grass may be exposed to
the influence Of the sun S rays. until there
remains but the woody tihlc, until there is 40
more nouri>hmrnt in it than there ia in Il nile
Of wood.

A Coon TEST. Tile rule of the road is
very good test Of the difference between
gentleman and a hlackguard. Whenever we
meet man, whether IN carriage or with an
OK team, who gives us more than half the
read, we respect him as a gentleman. But
whenever we meet a young man who drives
rapidly on, without giving an inch Of the road :,
we pity him as poor miserable fellow. The
