that he started to run. The road was very
steep, and in holding the horse one rein

wall and her neck was broken instantly.
She was OF more than fifteen rods from
the house. Mr.. Cheney held on to the
horse and was not seriously injured. Mrs.

Co-Operatiye Building,

We hear of q new cooperative building
association, which was started by Mr. Albert
Allingham, who was formerly the Secretary
of two similar associations in London, and
who was the originator of smother in Mon
treal Mr. John W. Farmer, the Ludlow street
Philanthropist is President of the new socie-
ty, and the Rev.. W. W. Hicks, of Brooklyn
is Vice President. A board, consisting of the
officers, three trustees and eleven directors,
has the general management ofmatters and
the society, which now numbers about
ninety members, meets twice week. Each
member 'conditionally pledges himself to
take $4,000 worth of stock, paying thereto
81 weekly, and ten per cent. per annum in
addition, the payments to commence when
the society numbers $50 members. The
shares are $500 each, every member must
take ten shares and may, if he is able and
pleases, become a stockholder to the amount
of $4,000. @ae'' j i.. -rs+-t
This plan is based upon the principle that
if the society numbers five hundred mem
bers, paying dollar eacIr per week, the ag-
gregate of the monthly payments, $4,000,
will build house, to be drawn by lot among
the members not already supplied. The
person drawing it then pays $500 per an
mum, or ten per cent. on the valuation of The
property This is virtually rent, only, with
the weekly dollar payments, which are still
continued, it goes towsrds the payment for
the house. In other words the tenant psys
the rent into the society, Of which he is an
associate, in place Of paying it to the land
lord. The society expects when it has its
complement Of members, to build and allot
twelve houses the first year, fourteen the
second year seventeen the third year, twenty
four the fourth year, and so on in increasing
ratio till every msmber is supplied with Z
house.-N. Y. Exchange. = IL

On Banking.

If you have baplky horses, it is your fault
and not the. horses, for if they do not pull
true there is some cause for it, and if you
will remove the cause the effect will cease
When your horse .baulks he is excited, and
does not know what you want him to do
When he gets little excited, stop him five
or ten minutes; let him become calm; go to
the baulky horse, pat him and speak gently
to him; and as soon as he is oyer his excite
ment he will, in nine cases out often, pull at
the word. Whipping and siashing and
swearing only make the matter worse. After
YOU have gentled him awhile, and his ex-
citement has cooled down, take him by the
bits; turn him each way a few times as far as
you can; pull out his tongue; gentle him a
little; unfein him; then step before the
baulEy horse and let the other Start first;
then you can take him any way you wish.
A baulky horse is always high spirited and
starts quick; half the pull is out before the
| others start; by standing before him the
others start too By. close application TO this
rule you can make any baulky horse pull.
If horse has been badly spoiled, you
should hitch him TO an empty wagon, and
let him pull it around awhile on level ground
then put on a little load, and increase it grad
| ually, caressipg IS before, arnd in short time
you can have good working horse

The Fenian Condemned.

The sentence of death passed on the
condemned Fenian prisoners in Ireland
has been commuted to imprisonment
for life. The English Government has
for once shown itself wissHand capable
of an act of clemency, and its course
will tend to allay the revolutionary fe-
yer in Ireland. The consistent and
manly demeanor of the prisoners dur
ing the trial, has excited universal SYM
pathy and admiration, and recalled to
mind the Irish patriots of former .reVo-
lutions, and the news of the commuta-
ton of their sentences will be welcomed
everywhere in this country.

Coon TEMPLARs IN OHIo.-This Order
originated in an obscure town In Western
New York, in 1851, and for several years
thereafter its progress was not rapid, but
within the past two or three years 1t mas
rapidly advanced. 1t was introduced IN
Ohio in 1854, the first Lodge being ipstitu-
ted at Conneaut, Ashtabula county, There
are now in the State over l65 Lodges IN 81
counties, and over 10000 members. There
are six Lodges in Morgan county, one at Nc
Gonnelsville numbering over 200 members.
In Pennsylvania, as we learn fromthe Pitts
burgh Commercial, there are 800 Lodges
against less than 30 in 1869. The order is
rapidly spreading, and its Principlfs are
taking fast hold upon the public mind.

Deodorizers and Disinfeotants-
The following cheap disinfectants may be
of service at this season of the year-if scat
tered in low places and where filth and gar,
base has been depOsited-and free use Of
them may do much to prevent the cholera
from visiting US: FL.
Two pounds of splphate of iron (copperas)
dissolved in pailfu1 of water, and poured
into vault, will prevent the formation Of
sulphurated hydrogen gas for some time, and
will generally be sufficient toremove all nui-
sance.
A layer of charcoal dust will prevent the
escape ofal offensive odor from any decom-
posing substances.
One pound of nitrate of lead dissolved in a
, psilful OF water, is excellent for sinks, sink
drains and vaults.
If the other things fail, chloride of lime is
always effectual, and may be freely used in
vaults and upon collections of fhh, but is
considered unhealthy to be used in dwell
ingswhere its odors are inhaled during sleep.
