The TALLow CANDLE THEoRY-Many
persons have heard it asserted that tallow
candle, when fred from an ordinary gun,
with the usual charge of powder, at a deal
board three-quurters of an inch thick, will
pass through the board, but very few who
have not seen it done believe it. On Mon
day party Of rIAeuen and other gentlemen,
for the purpose of deciding bet on the
subject, adjourned to the butts of the North
Middese1 Rifles, at Child's bill, where a
board of the thickness described having been
fixed in a upright position, a common half
penny dip was fred at it from a fowling>
piece, from a distance of about fifteen PAGES.
The candle struck the board with its full
length. and passed through, leaving a hole
exactly the shape of the candle The re-
mains Of the candle we're found scattered in
pieces resembling snow>Aakes on the high
mound Of earth in the rear Of the board. A
second candle, when Cred from the fowling-
piece, passed through the board, making a cir
cular hole, which was, however very Jagged
round the edges. A third candle carried
away large piece Of the board nine inches
long and three inches broad, breaking away
the boundary OF one side of the hole made
by the first shot. A candle fred from a rife
failed to pass through the board, the grooves
of the rife stripping the tallow from the
wick as it passed out. The smooth bore
foWling piece was loaded each time with
two and half drachms Of powder, a small
piece Of paper as a wad, and a common tai
low dip, which had not been specially pre-
pared In any manner Court Journal

A wife, (says Mr. Lofty, is q woman
that belongs to q man. Shea pretty little
creature made to tickle his fasey, his vanity
and his self.IoVe, and to kiBg, laugh, and
dance through bis otherwise dull habitation.
But upon her dance, mind you, she must
see that the,honse is kept in order that the
dinner is always well cooked that the but
tons and the hose are ell right, and that
nothing in the whole household economy
ever interferes With has comfort.
In short, a wife is pleasant sort of uni
Versal servant to her husbands will and
pleasure-a most agreeable provision made
BY the Creator for mans good. She is a
compound of flowers, music aud domestic
animal-very useful and very ornsmental-
all the more desirable for her lack of mental
powers because, we're she not in this res-
Pect so much inferior to her decreed lord
and master, she might become so presump-
tuous as to think that shoe which fits Que
foot ought to fit the other; that good rules
work both ways; aud that just SO much
comfort as she gives she has a right to de.
mand in return; and just SO much honor
and respect as she pays she should receive !;
ib short, that she is in number and imports
ance of rights and privileges the peer of
her husband.
Thus saith Mr.. Lofty. And now hear
the response of Mr.. Common Sense.
Nay; but wife is given-neither for
toy nor for a servant but for steadfast
friend.
She is, indeed, a fount of joy and pleasure,
such as, to a true heart, there is not else
where on earth
She is, indeed, the brighteuer of his house,
and the wise and careful manager of her
family-of her family-for whatever is bis
is hers; and between welded hearts the
words "miHe" and "hine" are impudence
and absurdity r--~
But she is more than all that-she is his
con6dante, his adviser, his ever 81 ympathizing
friend-his able and most tender consoler-
his sttength, even, when his courage droops.
She is the voice Of Gods love and cou>
fort to him as he tolls aud struggles through
this weary world.
All of this is what ,0ife is, if she an
swers to her Makers ideal. But she is
seldom found, alas because man is so un-
worthy

RAISING COLTs.-Never expect to have
a good horse, if you cram your colt it cam
not be done. The old adage in Vermont,
"a ragged colt makes the best horse" means
everything. Your colt then should run with
its dam until it has reached that condition
of the stomach which will enable it to digest
solid food. Then take your colt and let it
have abundance of free, cold air to begin
with, and in addition to that, avoid the feed
ing of grain until it is three years old, as
you would avoid feeding brandy aud water
to your children when they are little. 1t is
astonishing bow many nice colts are ruined
Oy the excessive use of stimulating grain
food, in their infancy, so to speak. Let
your colt mature slowly, its bone grow pro-
perly, lis digestive functions are properly
organized, and its flesh in the proper con
dition-neVer fat. Horse fat is the poorest
fat in the world. Keep it upon the be bay
IN winter, and good sweet pasture in the
summer, and you will make the best possible
horse of that colt.-Dr Lorino.
