PICS AS A MARRIAGE PoRTION.-Our An
glo-Saxon forcfathers especially desired do
mestication of hogs, bees, and eels. Pigs
are specially bequeathcd by will, and the
marriage portion of noble lady consisted
sometimes only of pigs. A noblcman nam
ed Alfred, gave to each of his daughters,
as IA provision in life, 1900 pigs, and noth-i
ing else. The Anglo-Saxons had no saul
dle-horses till the middle of the seventh
century, when the foreign bishops intro
duced the use of palfreys. Saint CuthbcIt
rode on horseback, and insisted that the
angels did SO, giving as Scriptural author:
ity reference to those angels who came
to the aid Of Judas Maccabees. In King
Alfred time, and after it. kings hunted on
foot hunting on horseback and fighting
ON horseback only came into fashion-andi
that suddenly-in the time of Edward the,
Confessor. Bookkeeping was much encour-.
aged by the clergy, who said bees were sent
from Heaven because mass could not be
celebrated without wax. But the special
energy of the clergy themselves was spent,
upon the rearing of cells. Nearly every
monastery had its vivarum for the supply
of good victuals on fast days, but the cells
We're apt to steal away, and so it was found
cheaper to let meres and marshes to fisher
men, who caught cells and paid rent in
them. Among pet animals Of the Anglo
Saxons, says MIR. John Thrurp, who writes
on this subject of domestication, were fox
es, wolves and offers, but their owners
were not answerable for the damage they
did, because they never did anything but
damage.

Then mud Now.

Then and Now.
In 1864 pressure was brought to bear
upon president Lincoln for the removal of
Montgomery Blair from the cabinet. Mr..
Blair had ycntured to differ from some of
his cabinet associates upon question of
administrative policy, and perhaps from
the executive himself. Twenty-six radi-
cal senators therefore petitioned the prcsi-
dent to remove Blair from the cabinet.
Among other things this petition said
"The theory of our government, and the
early and uniform practical construction
thereof is that the president should be al
dcd by a cabinet council agreeing with him
in political principle and general policy,
and that all important measures and APP
pointments should be the result of t. cir
wisdom and delibcration.'
AS we have said this was signed by
twenty-six of the leading republican sena-
tors, of whom there were Summer, Will
son. Chandler. Wade, Trumbull and IIar-
Ian and Grimes of this state. In response
Mr.. Blair very promptly rendered his res
ignation. .rfls1
Now mark. 1t was just at this time
that the purpose was manifested to perma-
nently make the war and its results Sec
tional, and not as had all along been pre-
tended for the Union. Montgomery Blair
opposed this purpose, and was therefore a
dangerous mans.in the cabinet. 1t was right
for Abraham Lincoln to request his resig-
nation, if he desired it, and Mr.. Blair
would properly have Ecen kicked out if he
had refused to resign. Here there will be
no dispute with the radicals. But three
years later president johnson has ocsasion
to dispense with the official services of Ed
win Nj. Slant r.. There q &c ious differ
ence of opinion on questions of administra-
ton policy. More than that. Stanton stands
