THE HARVEST IN EURoPE.-Some facts
have been published by the European
Journals regarding the harvest pros
poets in the grain-growing countries
of Europe. In Prussia the prospects are
not at all favorable, especially for the ear
ly crops, and the late ones have suffered
severely for the want of warm sun. AS is
the case in this country, there has been
little or no summer in Prussia, and this
has had its effect on the crops. In Saxony,
however, matters are different, and the
prospect of good healthy yield has glad
dened the hearts of the farmers. The
wheat and barley crops of France, espec-
tally in the west and southwest, have
greatly improved, and promise productive
and bOuntiful yield. Russia will, accord
ing to all accounts he up to the average OF
last year. The promise of an abundant
harvest in Hungary is gratifying, and in
Roumania, Bulgaria and Besarabia the
promises are flattering.

Mode Of Managing . Festive Horse.

A groom, mounted on a high melted
hunter, entered the High street of Cold
stream, and when opposite Sir John Ma
joribanks' monument the horse began to
plunge and rear to fearful extent, swerv-
ing to the right and then to the left, but
go forward he would not, nor could all the
exertion of the groom overcome his obsti-
macy. The street was filed with people ex-
pecting to see the animal destroy himself
on the spikes of the iron railing round the
monument, when Mr.. McDougall, saddler,
walked up to the groom and said: 81 think,
my man, you are not taking the proper me-
thod to make the horse go; allow me, if
you please. to show you trick worth know
ing" "Well," said the groom, eff you can
make him go, it's more than 1 can; when
MI McDougall took piece ofwhip cord,
which he tied with firm knot on the end
of the animals ear, which he bent gently
down, fastening the end of the string to the
check buckle of the bride; this done, he
patted the horses neck once or twice, and
said: SNOW let me see you go quietly
home, like good horse" Astonishing to
relate, the horse moved off as gently as if
nothing had happened. Mr.. McDougall
says he has seen in London horses which
no manner of force could make go, while
this mild treatment was always successful

AN ITEM FOR BoYs.-It is not necessary
that boy who learns trade is compelled
to follow it all his life. Governor Palmer
of Illinois, was II country blacksmith once
and began his political career as consta-
BILE in Macoupin county. A circuit judge
in the central part of Illinois was once u
tailor. Thomas Hoyne, a rich and eminent
lawyer of Illinois, was once book-binder.
Erastus Corning, of New York, too lame to
do hard labor, commenced as shop boy in
Albany. When he applied for employ
ment first he was asked Why, my little
boy, what can you do9" Can do what l
am bid" was the answer. That secured
him place. Senator Wilson, of Massa-
chusetts, was shoemaker. Thurlow Weed
a canal-boat driver. Ex-Governor Stone,
of Iowa, was cabinet maker, which trade
the late Hon. Stephen A. Douglass also
worked at in his youth. Large numbers
Appointment men now living have arisen
from humble life by dint of industry, with
out which talent is as useless as a gold coin
on q barren island. Work alone makes
men bright and it does not alone depend
on the kind of work you have to do wheth-
er you rise or not, 1t depends on how you
do it.

ARTIFICIAL LEATHER.-A process has
lately been brought out in England for
working up scrap leather and such parts
of old boots and shoes as have not been
burned, or the fibre of the leather other
wise destroyed, into sort of artificial leath-
er, which is claimed to be nearly or quite
equal to any in point of wear. The scraps
are first reduced to pulp. To do this the
thicker and harder pieces are put into
suitable disintegrating or crushing mill,
where they are broken up, care being taken
that the fibre is not injured. They are
then put with the thinner pieces which did
not require crushing, and the whole
thrown into powerful rag engine and con-
verified into pulp with water ora thin So
luton of gelatine, after which it is convert
ed into sheets. These sheets are next in
closed between other sheets of thin but per-
feet leather. A sort of compound sheet is
thus obtained, which, after being subject
ed to pressure is ready for use.
