BUFFALoEs AND BRAD-AwLs.

The buffaloes found In the telegraph
poles of the overland line new source
of delight on the treeless prairie-that
of having something to scratch against,
But it was expensive scratching for the
telegraph company, and, there indeed,
was the rub, for the bisons shook down
miles of wire daily. A bright idea
struck somebody to send to st. Louis
and Chicago for all the brad-awls that
could be purchased, and these were
driven into the poles with view to
wound the animals aud chec , their rub
bing propensity. Never was a greater
mistake made. The butfaloes were de-
lighted. For the first time they came
to the scratch sure of sensation in
their thick hides that would thrill them
from horn to tail. They would go fif-
teen miles to find a brad-awl. They
fought btttles round the poles contain
ing them, and the victor would proud
ly climb up the mountainous heap &
the fallen and scratch himself into bliss
until the brad-awl broke, or the pole
came down. There has been no de-
mand for brad-awls from the Kansas
region since the first invoice.

ORANGE COURT HOUSE. MORNING JUNE Is, 1862

everything to make man and woman

airy, hate, and spite.

superior to the civil law, he must aDan-

place solely for human justice according
to human law.

cases of divorce the Chancellor has large

circumstances what lie thinks becomes
the law of the case. | have my views,
and, not now wholly fettered by mere

Throughout the civilized world great
temples have been erected and conse-

A TRILLIoN.

This is simple word, but it includ-
es good many units. A person who
had commenced counting at the crea-
tion and had been miracnlously allow
ed to continue his task, would no. have
reached the number yet by avery con-
siderable margin, becruse tiillon OF
seconds is about thirty-two thousand
y ears. A little calculation of this sort
sometimes renders man better able
to appreciate what short space OF
time he is allowed to live in this sub
lunary sphere, and an exceedingly long
period eternity is compared with it,.
He will also understand that a few
thousand dollars one way or the other
make very little difference to him. pro-
vided he is able to get enough sleep
and three melas regularly, and run up
a small account against mankind for
a number of kind services rendered
here and there along his brief journey.

NUMBER 32.
SIOUX COURTsHIP.

The Sioux are, perhaps, mentally,
morally and physically, the best ody
of Indians on the Plains. As wives,
their women are faithful and if wo-
man becomes lewd, they pass her on
the prairie. That is to say, they take
her out of the village, stake her down
on the ground, where she is left for
three mig its, subject to outrage by the
roughs of the tribe, who can kill her
If they wish. She is, after this, made
TO carry wood, water and do hard la
Dor in the tribe, and is disgraeed for
ever. Polyg gamy is practiced in the
tribe, but not extensively. A man
may have as many wives as he can
keep, but he must buy them. The uni
versal Price of a wife is a pony, or tor
a white man an American horse. A
squaw .once bought becomes the i'm
mediate property of the purchaser, but
he must catch her. Men have bought
wives and rever been able to catch
them. NJ ost of them, however, are
quite willing to be caught
An Indian, several years ago, took a
fancy to an officers horse, and tried ev-
cry way to purchase him, but the off,
Ger would not part with the ANIMAL
Finally the Indian offered bis sister, a
beautiful girl, in exchange for the
horse. Fearing he would steal or main
the animal, and not wishing to offend
him. the officer gave the Indian tile
horse, but declined to receive the girl
in return. The young lady however,
was informed that she was soldj and so
the matter stood. After waiting a long
time for her husband to come and claim
her, she one day, as he rode by the
camp, put herself in his way, when,
seeing he took no notice of her, she
nalvely asked: "Why don't you catch
me?" The officer, whe had seen her
before, inquired what she meant. when
she roundly told him she was his wife.
and not at all pleased that he had not
come for her. He never claimed her,
but she was regarded y her tribe as
the white mans squaw and, at last ac-
counts, she was still single and wait
ing for her husband.

STRAWBERRIES-sH TO PRESERVE
THEM.

"Pick ont the largest and best ber-
ries, stem or cap them. and to each
pound of strawberries put q pound of
loaf sugar and half glass of White
wine, let them stand tour or five hours;
take off the syrup so as not to mash the
fruit. and clarity it; then put in the
Strawberries, and to each pound put as
much fine alum as will lay on the blade
of penknife-too much alum will spoil
them; let them boil fifteen or twenty
minutes and shake them round in the
kettle, but do not stir them with q
spoon, as that will mash them, after
you take ont the fruit let the syrup boil
up, and then put up in jars air tight. -
Before putting the top on the jar, put
a piece of white paper over the berries,
and pour spoonful of brandy on it.
Whenever practicable the berries should
be gathered in mid day.

STRAWBERRY FERTILIZERS

The following recipe was first tried
years since with, apparently, high sat
isfaction; the growth was vigorous, the
crop abundant and the berries large :
1t twas, therefore, very highly COM
mended as fitted TO secure admirable
results. Old beds, under the treatment
suggested, are said to be even better
than new. The proportions are for a
bed thirty by forty feet. Commence
using the fertilizer when the new leaves
are being put forth, and apply it to-
wards night, three times, at intervals
of week between each application.-
It should be dissolvedliD thirty gallons
of rain or river water. Indeed, il any
thing be varied from this, let the pro-
portion of water be larger: Nit ate of
potash, sulphate of soda, Tor "Glauber's
salts, land sal soda of each one pound;
of muriate of ammonia, one quarter of a
pound. Keep the bed well weeded.-
Tried on old beds, even. the results, as
above hinted. are highly gratifying

DEoDoRIsING WASH.

The Scientific American says; The un-
pleasant odor produced by pei spiration
is frequently subject of vexation to
persons who are subject to it. Moth
ing is simpler than to remov this odor
much more efieetually than by the APP
plication OF such nnguents and per-
lumes as are now in use. 1t is only
necessary to. procure some compound
spirits of ammonia, and place about two
teaspoonsfuls in basin of water
Washing the face, hands and arms with
this leaves the skin as neat, clean and
fresh as one could wish. The wash is
perfectly harmless and very cheap: 1t
is recommended on the authority of all
experienced physician. and it ought to
be tried at least by all those whose per-
sons are offensive in this respect.
