" l do this for the South for the benefit OF
the whole country
Mr.. Peabody is known to be charitable on
principle, to recognize his obligations to
God as having prospered him above others,
and to consider himself merely steward of
his bounty. He says that he gives accord
ing to his means; that he does no more,
therefore, than many others, and that he
could not do less. Great, however, as is his
lberality, he Meier entertdinS applications
for aid from strangers, and hnbitually de-
clineS to read or dnSorer letters containing
them. On one occasion he committed to the
flames as many as 4 1000 such letters. One
of his most striking Observation-Disclosures
or less illustrated in every gift he has
made-is n freedom from sectional or secta
rian prejudice and bigotry; catholicity of
spirit and large-hcarted benevolence. He
declares that he never has bestowed bene-
fits upon any particular religious denomi-
nation as such, and that he never will do
so, and he has distinctly expressed the wish
that this policy should obtain in the appor-
tionment of the fund for education in the
South. He is not member of any church,
though educated Presbyterian.
The tota, amount he has given away in
the last seventeen years is but little short
of ten millions of dollars. His splendid
gifts to the poor of London-about two mil
lions of dollars in the aggregate-are still
fresh in the minds of all, and the letter and
miniature of herself sent him by the Queen
everywhere remembered. A well-written
and most interesting account of the manner
in which this money has been bestowed is
found in Appleton's Journal for July 81,
1869. The city of Baltimore, for twenty
years his home, has received for education
al purposes not less than million of
dollars, and the cause Of southern edu-
cation double as much. Most Of his other
donations in the United States have been in
the North. chiefly New England, and are
too numerous to detail here. He has dis

Insults to General Grant.

Mr.. Andrew Johnson, if the report of a
conversation with him be correct-and
the World publishes the matter as II 1t
were of Importance to somebody's OF
opinion that General Grant is farce, :
and /" a little fellow" and treacherous,
and that he " lied fagrantly," and that his
presence in the White House is "degrad-
ing" to the Presidency. In the words OF
the Declaration, which are very familiar
to us all at this season, it would seem that
I" a decent respect for the opinions of man
kind would make Mr.. Andrew johnson
extremely careful of illusions to treachery
and degradation in connection with the
Presidency of the United States.

of their country to be subject to Islander,
The old Aurora said as foul things Oh

Andrew johnson and the World can say
of General Grant. But somehow the peo'
pie thought that the Atr0rG's ribaldry OF
the Copperhead hiss could hardly lessen
the lustre of the inestimable national ser
vices of Washington and Lincoln and
when they read the feeble insults OF MIR
Andrew johnson and the World upon 8

has been, in the words of the amusing

the suppression of the rebellion, as a series

Mixed Stock i'm Pasture.

Noticed, some time ago, good deal writ
ten about keeping mixed stock in pasture
AS have been keeper of stock from
very early youth until now, venture
to give my opinion. And first, have
found that sheep do very well amongst
cattle, but cattle do badly amongst sheep.
To prove it, let the farmer take the foo-
der left by the cattle, even when part OF 1t
has been trodden under their feet, and ii
the sheep are not fully fed, they will see
the sheep eat it up very greedily and
then let him take what his sheep leave
and offer it to his cattle, and he will find
they won't taste it if they can get any
thing else or let him turn his milch COWS
into a sheep pasture, and he will fino
them to fail in milk.
Cattle do very well where horses pas
ture. In proof OF this, every farmer must
have seen that cattle will eat the ittel
of horses, even if fully fed, but horses
won't eat what cattle leave, unless com
PEELED to do so. But horses and sheer
will do well in the same pasture, especial
| ly the horses. To prove this, let the farm
er turn out the sheep from their yard anc
turn in his horses, and they will eat al
the sheep have left, even the litter around
the racks, john johnson.

bands and wives of those stricken with
leprosy frequently live with them, and
often for long time without contracting
the disease. The sick are generally quite
cheerful, for, although they, are aware
that their cases are hopeless, leprosy is a
painless disease, and all their senses be-
come so benumbed that they lose the feel
ing of self-loathing, which one would sup
pose they must have in their horrible con-
dition. The correspondent describes the
scene in the hospital for the worst cases
with almost nauseating particularly, but
it is only necessary to imagine the most
loathsome condition of the human body
to understand what their condition is
