RARRY AND A MUSTANG MARE-In New
York on Saturday evening, Mr.. Rarey, the
horse tanner, delivered another lecture, and,
during the evening exhibited a Mustang mare.
When brought IN she took survey of The
house, and then as Rarey approached in front,
rose on her hind legs, and quick rs lightning
struck at him with her fore feet. For several
minutes she thus met his every advance, aud
showed a desperate malice, and agility Of the
most extraordinary nature. The audience
snnddered with apprehension lest Mr. Rarey
might be killed, aud breathed freer he
capped unhalmed. 1t was really a danger
Gus thing 10 take up. the leg of such
an animal, and all of Mr.. L irey's motions
were made in the most deli berate and caut. S
manner. The mare finally, in strikina ut.
caught her left fore foot in the bride, al fell
TO her knees. When she rose, Mr. Parey by
an adroit motion managed to get her foot in
his hand, and holding 1T gently, he had the
strap buckled and the leg confined in Il mo.
ment. The other leg was then secured. and
the struggle commenced. The Mustang fought
long and well, but her exertions only exhaust
ed her the soonei; and at the end of q quarter
of IN hour she gave up the contest, and suf-
fered herself 10 be mounted and ridden all
around the ring.

THE WINTER IN FRANCE in France the
weather appears 10 have been not less severe
and its effects seem to have been more disas-
trous. 1t was accompanied also by heavy
snow, which lay 10 the depth Of not less than
sixteen inches, IN the ives tern part of France,
HI d IN Paris TO the depth Of TWO feet. A
piercing wind blew. which interfered seri-
ously with the work of the laborers employed
TO clean the streets; for they do not allow
snow 10 remain on the ground In the French
cities. The day after this great fall Of snow
in Paris, the Project of the Seine adopted the
most vigorous measures to prevent the pas
sage through the streets from being inter
rupted. For that purpose several hundred
stTeet-sWeepers with carts We're collected in
the Place Fendome, whence they were de-
hched 10 the various quarters of Paris. The
snow was then carefully removed from the
fagways and collected in heaps, so that il
might melt gradually into the shores and pre-
vent an inundatlon. The high roads in the
neighb borhood OF Paris were So thickly covered
with snow that the market carts which sup
ply Paris with provisions-milk, vegetables,
nsh, and poultry--were delay ed several hours
beyond their usual time. The proprietors OF
the booths erected on the boulevards for the
sale of new years gifts had not been able 10

der the authority OF South Carolina, are

Best Time to Cut 1Imbcr, /1' Tcnc
1ug.-Late autumn is the best time
for telling timber tor almost any pur-
pose, and it is particularly y SO when
the timber is to be worked up into
.ails or stakes, or posts toy fencing.
AT that season ct the year the lew
wood has arrived ut its complete
maturity, and there is less sap or al
sumen in timber than there Is at any
other season of the year, which alhu
men, when exposed to the influence Of
the weather, hastens the decay Of
timber. 1t timber be cut and spiit
out, in the latter part Of autumn, the
seasoning process is much more gr;t-
dual and pretect because the grain nt'
timber contracts more equally and
uniformly, rendering the timber fir
,ner, and less porus, and less cracked. .
than when cut ut other seasons of the
wear. Besides, timber that is cut in
late autumn and split out, or sawed
cut before spring. will not ''p"x,dcr
post nor be injured by the worms
working in it, nor be injured by dry
rot, as is the case with timber, many
times which has been cut at some other
seasons Of the year. Fence post and
stakes, particularly. no matter what
the kind Of timber may be, when fel-
led and split out ia Late autumn, will
out last other post sand stakes, of the
same kind of timber which may be
cut at different season of the year,
by several years, according to the
time it may be cut. Reason teaches
US that this is so, and the experience
of the most successful expcrimenters
in timber, furnish the most indubita-
bic testimony to substantiate the
TACT.
