of the war he was the wealthiest citizen
of Tuscaloosa county. He owned three
hundred and sixty slaves, and large
tracts of land. He had large sums OF
money out at interest, secured by NOR

was a homcspuu and economical coun-

some forty head of horses and mules,

A TORREADoR GORED TO DEATH
A fatal accident at bull fight J. Is
p0gsaoL occurred in the old Roman circus,
at NismeS, on the 2nd. A torreador,
named Mateo Cabrear, was run through
the chest by one of the bulls, and killed
on the spot. The Nomiteau du iSoir
gives the following account of the oc-
currence =" 1t was evident when the
very first bull appeared that the preten-
ded Spanish torreadors, or at least some
of them, either knew nothing of their
dangerous business, or were in such a
state of excitement as to lose their
heads. They irritated the bulls in most
unnecessary ways, and their rashness
wasonly equalled by their awkwardness.
the bulls, which, though good enough
for our amateurs, were tame creatures
indeed when compared with the genuine
furious Spanish animals, knocked over
several of the torreadors, though with
out hurting them. With the fourth bull
the unfortunate Cabrea attempted the
hoop game. But instead of watching
the bulls movements, and holding the
hoop on one side SO as to avoid the rush,
he held it in both hands exactly before
his breast, and the bull after running
his horns through the paper, transit xed
the man. The other torreadors in the
circus rushed to their comrade and
picked him up. They opened his waist
coat to see where he was hurt. Sup
ported by them he walked two or three
steps, then slipped from their hands and
ftll heavily. A torrent of blood gushed
from his breast and he was quite dead.
Inc sight of the blood caused great
emotion among the audience, and sever

A BEE-TAMER.-Th following is a des-
cription of bee-charmer who has been ex-
citing great interest at the State fair at Sara
toga:
=" One of the greatest attractions on the
ground was great honey-bee monger, whose
hat, while on his head was covered with bees,
which appeared like a small swarm on a
bush. He handled bees as if they were harm
less flies. They crawled all over his person,
in his hair, and on his face, and he put some
of them in his mouth and blew them out,
and handled them at pleasure. And what
was most remarkable is, they were strange
bees, attracted from the woods or from col
onies in the country. Immense crowds of
people hung around him, continually asking
questions and purchasing the secret of col
lecting bees from the forest or robbing their
neighbors of their busy workers by remain
ing quietly at home. When every bee was
shaken from his hat and it was returned to
his head. the buzzing swarm about him
would quickly return, completely covering
his hat. The superintendent interfered, as
he affirmed that such an exhibition drew
away too many people.

EMANCIPATION OF THE DANISH SERFs-
1t is seldom that the pen of history can in
dite praises of royalty or of regard ofa mon
arch for the happiness of his people. Among
the few names in bright record is that of
Frederick VI of Denmark, in whose reign
the abolition of sertdom was brought about
Everybody and everything were against the
royal reformer and two or three wise coun-
selors who cordially co-opcrated with him.
Public protests, intrigues, clamor, nothing
affected him. He overcame all without a
single explosion of vivacIty, leaving the law
to act, and never putting himself forward
more than the emergency required. Few
victories have been so memorable as the
tranquil enfranchisment of an unhappy peo-
pie fl ON the most degrading bonds to which
man can be subjected. Proof was given at
the same time to the entire nation that the
proprietors, their former landlords, lost none
of their real advantages ; nay, they gained
in the end by an arrangement at once just
and satisfactory for the master and his de-
pendents. To Denmark, under the rule of
Frederick vi, must he awarded the honor
of being the first Power to prohibit the slave
trade in 1892, and to abolish slavery in 1903

Corn AND CABBAGE FOR SoIL1NG.-
There are two periods in the season
ofpasturing on grass, through which
dairymen find it difficult to carry
their stock without falling off In
the flow of milk and in condition.
These are mid summer-when the
first growth Of grass is finished-and
the latter part autumn when the
frost has arrested the second growth
of herbage, and rendered. it less
nutritious. The ordinary method of
providing sufficient supply of food
for these periods of scarcity is to
stock the pastures through the whole
season much lighter than is neces-
sary in time of vigorous growth of
feed, thus producing a quantity of
grass in the beginning of the season
to be consumed in the latter part,
when, frequently, it is sun burnt and
dried up.
These disadvantages might be
overcome, in great measure, and a
larger herd of cattle grazed ON a
given number of acres, by providing
food from other sources, during the
mid summer and latter part of au-
tumn. For this purpose we advise
the sowing OF corn IN drills. for soil-
ing in midsummer, and the planting
of cabbages for late fall feed. These
crops are very well adapted for soil
ing at the special periods mentioned.
The corn fodder may be fed in
stables, night and morning, or car
ried to the pastures and scattered
over them. The cabbages, should
be led in the same manner. Cut
them off close to the ground with an
ak or stiff brush scythe, throw them
into wagon box, and take them in
to the fields to be eaten.
The greatest labor and perplexity
usually incurred in growing these
crops-that of harvesting and secur-
ing properly for winter-are not
necessary by this method of feeding.
Dairymen, give these hints thought
full attention! Figure carefully on
it and experiment some. With the
time at your command for raising
these crops they cannot fail of prov.
ing highly remnnerative. Over ten
thousand cabbage plants can be
grown on one acre. All of them
would produce food for the COWS.
Allow each one twenty heads per
day, snd one acre would feed ten
cows for fifty days-[Rural New
