n Farm.

Collector David Henshaw was a kind
hearted man as well as able but as
smart as he was. on one occasion in
doing a generous act. he was badly
taken in. An old custimer doing
business in Eaton, N. H. had failed
owing Mr.. HIS firm about $4,000.
After settling with his other creditors
he came to Mr.. H..
well, SIR" said the latter, what
can you do for US"
Have saved my farm for you sir,
replied the unfortunate man."
Your farm hey" said Mr.. II, "and
what have you left ?"
"Well, sir a horse, pig and COW, an d
altogether 1 think they may bring me
in about seventy-ive dollars-suficient
| hope, to get myself and family out
West, where l intend to settle. By
the way, here's the deed TO my farm
SIR" said the poor but honest debtor,
as he passed the document which GER
tilted Mr.. HIS legal right to two hundred
acres of land, more or less" and
known as "cold stream farm"
"Oh, that will never do" says Mr..
II. and drawing his check for $500, he
handed it to his old customer, re-
marking at the same time that he was
sorry for his misfortune, aud ~appreciat-
ing his integrity, it gave him great
pleasure to be able to afford him a
little help at starting again.
The poor fellow was greatly surpris-
ed, and reluctantly taking the check,
with a ear drop in his eye" heartily
thanked his ever generous creditor and
departed, but to be seer by Mr.. H. no
more.
About the LIST of April following,
Mr.. Henshsw thought he would go up
to Eaton and take a look at his real
estate there. Arriving there about
dusk, he put up" at his old friend
Marsh's, who, on hearing his guests
errand, said he would 60 out with him
the next morning and show him where
the farm lay.
Next day, soon after breakfast, they
sailed out to see it. After proceeding
a few rods, the tavern keeper halted,
and directed his companions attention
to a bare, but steep and rough looking
mountain, that stood a few miles of,
remarked that was called Bald Mount
ain.
That's a tough looking place, "
remarked the other.
well" continued the tavern keep
er, ''the location of your property
the cold spring farm-is on the top of
that mountain"
"Yes; but how do you get there"
"Why, you don't suppose anybody
was ever up there, do you, Mr.. Hen
shaw 2"
"Well, what's the good Of it-what
is done with it?" rufully inquired the
amazed merchant.
"The town sells it every year for the
taxes" replied the tavern keeper.
They do hey ?" said Mr.. Heashaw,
"and pray tell me who in these parts
is fool enough to buy that style oil
property"
why any of our chaps around here
who get into trouble and fail, buy it for
the purpose Of settling with Boston
creditors"
Mr.. Henshaw took the first oppor-
tunity TO return home, and perhaps
would not have told the story, had moi
a friend, in asking him as collector,
to give a man a place in the custom
house, for n reason, among and
above all others, that he was from New
Hsmpshire-when he gave this little
bit of experience with one of the
Granite State men.

Speaking of intellectual amusement
in Europe. an English paper says: The
rage for bird singing contests is on the
increase throughout the north of France
and Belgium, and considerable bets
change hands. The poor winged per-
formers in this brutal amusement are
first deprived of their sight by a red
hot iron passed over their eyes, and
then confined in diminutive cages, in
dark cellars, for fifteen days before the
trial. Their removal into the fresh air
and rays of the sun cause them to
give utterance to their Joy in song, on
which their proprietors bet some for
length of song, others for the various
melodies performed.

Inslnct OF Horses I'm Battle,

Kinglake, IN his last volume of the
Crimean war, says Of horses in battle /:
That extent to which q charger can
a%pprehend the perils of a battlefield
may be easily moderated by one who
confines his observations to horses still
carrying their riders for as long as a
troop horse in action feels the weight
and hand of a master, his deep trust IN
msn keeps him seemingly free from
great terror, and goes through the light,
unless wounded, as though it were a
field day at home; but the moment
that death, or q disabling wound de-
prives him of his rider, he seems all at
once to learn what q battle is-to per
eeive its real dangers with the clearness
of a human being, and to be agonized
with horror at the fate he may incur
for want of a hand to guide him. Care
less of the mere thunders of guns, he
shows plainly enough that he more or
less knows the dread accent that is US
ed by missiles of war whilst cutting
their way through the air, for as often
as these sounds disclose to him the
near passage of bullet or round shot,
he shriDks and cringes. His eyeballs
protrude; wild with fright, he still
does not most commonly gsllop home
into camp. His instinct seems rather
to tell him that what safety, if any,
there is for him must be found in the
ranks and he rushes at the first squad
ron he a find, urging %piteouslY, yet
violently, that he o by right is a
troop horse; that he too is willing to
charge, butnot to be left behind; that
he must and he will "fall in" Some.
times a restless charger thus bent on
aligning with his fellows will not be
content with ranging himself on the
flank of the line, but dart at some
point in the squadron which he SEEM
ingly judges to be his rightful
place, and strive to force himself in.
Riding as it isusual for the commander
of a regiment to do, somewhat in ad-
vance of his regiment Lord George
Poget was especially tormented and
pressed by the riderless horses which
chose to turn and align with him. At
one time there were three or four of
these horses advancing close abreast of
him on one side, and as many al five
the other. Impelled by terror, by
gregsrious instinct, and by their habit
of ranging in line, they so closed in
upon Lord George as to besmear his
oVeralls with blood from the CORY
TANKS of the nearest intruders, and OBJ
liged him to use his sword"

A German journal recommends the

The rats eat the sponge, and becoming
thirsty, drink the water, which swells
the sponge, aud in a short time kills
the animals.
