YaY LOVE. .

MY love Is pale. but in her cheeks
Faint rosy iushes come and go,
That gather slightly when she speaks,
Ana Sometimes deepen to glow

Within whose heart blush Is set,
Softly unfoldiug as 1t grows
Bat ah, have not found her yeti;
Her eyes are blue-such sweet blue eyes
But now and then = smile will rise.
And an them suddenly with light;
And when abe hears OF some distress,
And on the lashes tears are wet,
Thsy look with such pained tenderness-
Bat ah, have not found her yeti
Across her brow In even braids
Is smcothlyl AID her glossy hair:
Ny love has need OF no false aids.
Or tricks OF dress. to make her fair.
Jhe does not need from silken trains
gorgeous dignity to get;
In her soft homely dress she reigns-
But al. have not found her yet
She wins your heart a hundred ways
Laying . light hand on Jour arm,
Showing in all she does and says
native deferential charm.
Moving about with quiet grace;
Such little things You soon forget.
Although they steal your love apace-
But ah, I have not found her yet
Her image in my heart wear;
Ny love, my faith. are ali her own;
Ileep my life prepared for her
when she shall come and take her throne.

Sheen Talk.

The nervous system of sheep is compar-
atively feeble, and we find that though not
exempt from diseases of the brain and
nerves, they are nearly always of debili-
tating character. such as palsy; and those
of Irritation, as tetanus, spasns, DC are ex-
tremely rare. Thus we find that most of
the severe diseases of the sheep are distin-
g-is'e6 ~ want of tone, and in general
this animal quickly sinks under the attack
of morbid agents. The digestive apparatus
forms so very important and pre-eminent
q feature in the animal economy
of sheep, consisting as it does, of
variety of complex parts for the
elaboration of the food, which do not
exist in any other animals, that We cannot
be surprised that its groans should be
those most susceptible to disease. Ac-
cordingly we find that such is the case
that the diseases of the digestive organs
are frequent, and both of a mechanical
and chemical nature. We have both these
arising from a superabundance and de-
ficiency of aliment, from its too great dry
ness or too great moisture, from its being
too young and iuxuriaut, or from being too
old and witbered, from containing un-
wholesome or poisonous principles. or the
minute and invisible eggs of innumerable
insects. Thus we find that diseases CON-
nected with the digestive organs are more
numerous or more frequent than all the
others to which sheep are liable.
Sheep are exposed throughout the year
to the vicissitudes of the weather, from
the effects of which they are in q great
measure protected by their wooily cover
ings; but standing sometimes on cold
and wet soil, and anon on q dry and warm
surface, they are subject to the injuries
arising from these alterations, from the
effects of standing for long time on q
wet surface, and the reaction which after
wards succeeds from evaporation; diseases
of the feet are therefore not unfrequent.
Again, from the Same exposure they are
subject to the attack of flies and other
vermin, which, particularly in the summer
months, prove source of great annoy
ance, and require constant vigilace on the
part of the shepherd. To these morbid
causes may be added the circumstance of
sheep being kept together often in large
fiocks, and thus more exposed to the In
fiuence of infectious diseases than animals
that are kept in a more isolated state.
Such are the principal circumstances to
which these animals are subjected, and
which form the causes of their principal
diseases: and it is useful to keep in mind
the nature of these causes, and the pc
culiarities and constitutionalid idiosyncrasles
of these animals, when treating them for
their different diseases.

Eyes as blue as bonnie blue bells.

A Nut that Burglars Cannot Crack.

The London correspondent of the Bos-
ton Commonwealth narrates the following:
Astranger in Threadneedle street. stand
ing in the narrow thoroughfare, shortly be-
fore ten o'clock in the morning, would have
his curiosity aroused by the number Of
well dressed men whom he would see en-
tering silversmith's shop, and in few
minutes reappearing with small Japan
boxes under their arms. If by further
chance it so happened he was at the same
spot between five and six o'clock in the
evening, he would probably observe the
same young men return to deposit the
sane Japan boxes on the counter of the
same shop. The explanation is siple-the
boxes, which contain the Inbanked Sc
curities and cash of merchants and bro
kers, are locked up for the night in the
silversmith's 8 strong room, built in an exca-
vation of sand rock far below the surface Of
the street, and upon which falls, when
closed up for the night, o considerable
fiow of water. The merchants and bro
kers pay q rent for the use of this secure
depository; and, acting no doubt upon
this idea, Mr.. Streeter, an extensive jew
eler, intends to give the wealthy posses
sors of costly jewels the opportunity of u.s.
ing his "Chatwood safe, with its hydro
pneumatic envelope and patent water
level guage. This safe stands on the
floor of his shop. and is open to day.
light. It rests upon q foundation of many
details, and of sufficient solidity to support
more than ten times sixty tons, the weight
of the safe itself, which is encased in con-
crete, embedded in which is water cham
Der connected with an apparatus and air
tubes to give timely warning of sinister
assaults. Besides this security, the safe
is burglar-pr0of. e1gineer-proof, gun-pow-
der-proof. chemical-proof, miner-proof,
and expert-proof. 1t cannot be fused, melt
ed, wedged, or bored, nor can the lock
of the door, which weighs six
tons, be picked or tampered with by the
most skilful manipulation without bringing
dc wn on himself detector. The key con-
sists of four parts, each in the posses
sion of differsn. persons, 30 that danger is
avsrted in that direction; while, suppos-
ing that the whole key be lost. the wards
Of the lock admit OF no fewer
than two thousand variations, and
new key could be made that
would render the old one perfectly useless.
Granting. however, the possibility Of sue.
cessfuIly breaking into the safe, it would
require sixty hours 70 accomplish the feat
and, as before stated, the first blow, nay
the merest .eratch of the operator, would
at once be shown by the index of q patent
water-guage lever. The inventor Is re
lieved Of Z good deal of anxiety in the pro
| lection the safe affords for his own valua
BILE stock, and already many wealthy CHI
ents have secured space in it for the saf'
keeping Of their jewels and title deeds.

Admixture Of Races in South America.

Nowhere, perhaps, says Prof. Agassiz, is
the physical and moral deterioration OF
pure races so clearly shown as in Brazil.
The hybrid between the Indian and the
negro, called cafuzo, has none Of the deli
cacy of the mulatto; his complexion Is
dark, his hair long, wavy and curling and
his character, instead OF being confiding,
but indolent is described by Agassiz as ex-
hibiting happy combination between the
Jolly disposition of the negro and the ener-
getic, enduring powers of the Indian. The
hybrid between the white and half-breed is
called mameluco, and is described as being
pallid, effeminats, feeble, lazy and rather
obstinate, the Indian influence having
apparently oblitsrated the higher charac-
teristics of the white, without imparting
its own energies to the offspring. Notice
able exceptions to this picture may be
found in the half-breeds of the semi-civil-
lied communities of our Southern Indians.
1t is very remarkable that the Indian,
crossing with either q negro or white,
makes q deeper impress ON his progeny
than the other races, and, in accordance
with this fact, it is observed that in fur
ther crossings, the pure Indian character
acteristics ard resumed and those of the
other races thrown of. Let any one,
says Professor Agassiz, "who doubts the
evil of the mixture of races, and is in
clinsd, from o mistaken philanthropy to
break down all barriers between them,
visit Brazil"

A ConntrY Without lireenbacks.

The Overland Monthly tells how the
Mormons manage to get along without
greenbacks.
Hundreds of farmers, living in reasona-
bly, comfortable circumstances, and having
large families to clothe and educate, viii
not see dollar in money for years. Such
a farmer wishes to purchase q pair of
shoes for his wife. He consults the shoe
maker, who AYERS his willingness to furnish
the same for one load of WOOD. he has
no wood, but sells a calf for q quantity of
ddobes, the adobes for an order on the mer-
chant. payable in goods. and the order for
a load of wood, and straiehtway the ma
tron is shod. Seven watermelons purchas-
ed ticket of admission to the theatre. he
pays for the tuition of his children seventy
FIVE cabbages per quarter. The dressmak-
or receives for her services four squashes
per day. He settles his church dues in
sorghum molasses. Two loads of pump
kins pay his annual subscription to the
newspaper. He buys Treaties on Co
lesial Marriage" for load of gravel, and q
bottle of soothing sirup for the baby for q
bushel Of string beans. In this primitive
method, until the advent of the railroad,
nine-tenths of the business of the Territory
was conducted. And even now in the
more remote settlements, majority of all
transactions are of this character.
