The Great Cancn Of the Yellowstone

The Great Falls are at the head of one
Of the most remarkable canons in the
world--a gorge through volcanic rocks
fifty miles long, and varying from one
thousand to nearly five thousand feet in
| depth. In its descent through this won
derful chasm the river falls almost three
thousand feet. AT one point, where the
passage has been Worn through 4 noun
tain range, our hunters assured us it was
more than vertical mile in depth, and
the river, broken Into rapids and cascades,
appeared no wider than 4 ribbon The
brain reels rs we gaze into this profound
and solemn solitude. We shrink from the
dizzy verge appalled,, glad to see the sol
id earth under our feet, and venture no
more, except with forms extended, and
faces barely protruding over the edge OF
the precipicc The stiffness is horrible.
Down, down, down, we see the river at
tenuated to thread, tossing its miniature
waves, and dashing, with puny strength,
the massive walls which imprison it All
access to its margin is denied, and the
! dark gray rocks hold it in dismal shadow.

cheered by plant or shrub, obstructcd
with massive boulders and by iutting
points, it rushes madly on its solitary
course, deeper and deeper into the bowels
of the rocky armament. The solemn
grandeur of the scene surpasses descrip-

sense Of danger with which it impresses
you is narrowing in the extreme. You
| feel the absence of sound, the oppression
of absolute silence. If you could only
hear that gurgling river, if you could see
living tree in the depth beneath you, if
bird would fly past, if the wind would
move any object in the awful chasm, to
break for q moment the solemn silence
that reigns there, it would relieve that
tension Of the nerves which the scene has

Surface and Mulch Manurinq.

For the reason that Nature applies her
fertilizer upon the surface and does not
plough them under, it is about time that an
agriculturist should consider whether they
or Nature are right when they differ SO
radically in their practice.
Does Dame Nature make 4 mistake when
she sets out to enrich Il continent by
spreading dead leaves, and twigs, and
trunks, and grasses and weeds over the
whole surface for years and years and thou
sands of years. Does Nature mistake
when She interposes a leaf before the beat
ing rain drops, and saves the earth from be-
ing pounded into the semblance of brick
keeps the soil light and porous that the air
carrying its ammonia and its CarbOnic acid
may penetrate to the waiting roots below
Is She going wrong when She lays a mat
of decaylng humuS over the soil, and only
allows the searching June sun 10 get to the
earth as Il gentle heat, incapable of drying
up the moisture held there by the mulch
Or are we wrong when we hide away our
fertilizer at the bottom of 4 furroW, and
leave the surface bleak and bare, to be
beaten down with the rain, and baked with
the sun, and i'll no condition to refuse the
good gifts which the air is willing to yield
up to Il moist and porous soil. Western

CUNDITION OF FARM ANIMALS. The in
VeStigation Of the condition of farm ami
mails Of the United States, recently made
BY the department of Agriculture, shows
that fewer losses, either from disease or
wintcl exposure, have resulted during the
past season than for several years previous
ly. Losses amounting to millions OF dol
lars have been heretofore reported, but no
epilootic has prevailed lately in any portion
Of the country The restrictive laws, and
the practice of gathering Texas herds in
the frontier depots have reduced the raw
ages of the brine fever. The foot and
mouth disease, which spread through por-
tions of New York and New England is not
fatal, and has nearly disappeared. Pleuro
pneumonia has been reduced to Il few cases
near the cities of the Middle States. Horses
have been comparatively healthy. Swine
have exhibited the greatest comparative
mortality, but less than in former years.
Sheep have suffered slightly from disease.
Farm stock of all kinds are almost uniform
ly i'll good condition. The hay crop was
short last season, but of excellent quality.
The corn crop was very large, and fed
literally. Better care than usual was be-
slowed upon farm animals, and their i'm
proved condition is attributed to abundant
feed, more humane treatment and the mild
ness of the past winter.

Who is he in youth or in maturity, or
even in old age, who does not like to
hear Of those sensibilities which turn curl
ed heads at church, and send wonderful
eyebeams across assemblies from one to
one, never missing in the thickest crowd !?
The keen statist reckons by tens and hun
dreds; the genial man is interested in
every slipper that comes into the assem-
bly,. The passion, alike everywhere,
creeps under the SHOWS of scandinavia,
under the fires of the equator, and swlms
in the seas of Polynesia. Love is As
puissant divinity in the Morse Edda, as
Camadeva in the red vault India Eros in
the Greek, or Cupid in the Latin heaven.
And what is especially true of love is that
it is a state of extreme impressionability
the lover has more sense and finer senses
than others; his eye and ear are tele-
graphs; he reads omens on the flower,
the cloud and face, and form and gesture.
and reads them Alright. In his surprise
at the sudden and entire understanding
that is between him and the loved per-
son, it occurs to him that they might some
how meet independently of time and place.
How delicious the belief that he could
elude all guards, precautions, ceremonies,
means and delays, and hold instant and
sempiternal communication In solitude,
in Punishment, the hope returned, and the
experiment was eagerly tried. The super
nal powers seem to take his part. What
was on his lips to say was uttered by his
friend. When he went abroad, he met,
by wonderful casualties, the one person
he sought. If in his walk he chanced to
look back, his friend was walking behind
him. And it has happened that the ar
tist has often drawn in his pictures, the
face of the future wife he has not yet
seen. Emerson.

Moses Jefferson looked gravely at his
daughter, who had stood listening in per-
feet silence.
"Take your mother into the house, my
DEAR" he said. "Tll 90 over and see
Hugh Darwin about this business"
Half an hour later, as Mrs. Jefferson
sat by the kitchen fire still wringing her
hands and bemoaning herself Moses
came in escorting figure in a along-skirted
coat, with NANCY fur cap tilted over its
eyes, and its mouth tied up in a red cot
ton pocket handkerchief.
''Why, it's the ragman - she cjaculat-
ed, springing to her feet with a little cry
And all of a sudden the disguise drop
ped off and Hugh Darwin stood laughing
before her
mo it amt the ragman Mrs Jefferson,
it's me-" he cried iovially. ''Agatha and
we thought it was Il shame to sell the
poor old mans boarded papers, and he
dyin' by inches, so turned ragman with
Squire Jones' hand-barrow and the sleigh
bells, and bought 'em myself, and they're
all safe in the garret chamber over home. :"
"And the money! gasped Mrs. Jeifer-
son.
The moneys all there-seven hundred
dollars" chimed in honest Moses, who
stood by, beaming with satisfaction
"And our little Aggie can get married
now whenever she likes. Hey, mother!
we outwitted you after all, didn't we?'

in all my born daysr' calculated Mrs.
Jefferson, clasping her hands and sink
ing back into the cushioned rocker.
Uncle Philemon died very peacefully
that same night; in fact, he never entire
ly walked from the sleep into which he
had fallen when Mrs. Jefferson sat by
his side; and consequently he never
knew that his beloved treasures, with
their precious inclosure Of bank bills, had
been bought and sold.
A plain, white headstone CLEANS above
his last resting place now. Hugh and
Agatha Darwin are keeping house, as
happy rs any crowned king and queen.
albeit their palace is nothing but q little
brown cottage under the hill, and their
royal robes are but Of calico and hodden-
gray. And Mrs. Jefferson, the autocrat,
is forced to admit that Just once in her
life She WAS wrong.

taking up the collection at one Of the
churches there, and succeeded in raising
a considerable sum. He approached the
door, and was about to go out with his

How Little Land Will Keep a Cow

On the first day of June last | commenced
cutting clover for one COW confined in Il
yard enclosed by a high tight board fence,
with Il stable attached in.whicn She had
been fed. She had no feed but freshly cut
clover from the first of June to the fifteenth
of October, and all taken from fourth
of an acre OF ground. She has averaged
eighteen quarts of strained milk per day,
from which my wife has made eight pounds
of butter per week, during the four and Il
half months. The COW is five years old,
and cross of the Ayrshire and Durham
She has given more milk, more butter, and
of Il better quality, than she had ever done
on pasture. On one e-eighth Of an acre |
have raised $50 bushels of sugar beets and
carrots, which with Two tons Of hay will
keep her handsomely the balance of the
year. The labor of cutting clover for the
COW is less than driving her three fourths
oil q mile to pasture; besides, the manure
saved is quite an item. In the dairy
districts, the usual estimate is four acres 10
the COW, on the hay and pasture system,
whereas by soiling and raising roots five
eights of an acre is found to be sufficient.
| will state further, what l believe from
nearly thirty years experience is, that
there is no crop SO valuable for soiline as
clover, no crop so many pounds of which,
and of equal value for milk and butter, can
be produced from an acre Of ground.
Sweet corn is good crop for late fee, ling,
where clover will not grow, but not profit
able for winter feeding. Exchange.
| HEAvEs IN HORSES. A 'Veterinaridn
writes in the Rural New Yorker: "Heaves
are caused by the enlargement, and often
rupture of the air cells of the lungs, and
are incurable; for no medical skill can re-
build or repair the broken down structure Of
the lungs Much can be done for the relic
of the animal, however, by the feed, which
should be nutritious, and lie in little com
pass as bulky feed dstends the stomach
and presses upon the lungs. Plenty o
grain and little hay, with the dust well
shaken out and little water sprinkled on
with steady work, or exercise, will do as
much to relieve the horse, and make hin
useful, as anything"

Twas Spring that danced along the hills,
And sung her old songs over; j.,
Twas Spring that touched the sleeping ri
And spread the fields with clover.
Across earth's bosom, brown and bare,
Her robe of beauty tlinging,
She hung her jewels every where,
And set her choirs TO singing.
But in my heart It's winter still,
Though fields are thick with clover.
And merry birds their music thrill

Shine through this mist of sorrow,
And LET the fields of Memory bloom

demonstrates this, and SAYS if any ordi-
nary pcnman wishes to test the necessity
for this doubt to his full satisfaction. he
can do so at little cost or trouble. The
letter in question goes on to say:
1t will not be denied that ordinarily,
every man is the best Judge of his own
signature. At all events, not one person
in Il thousand, who can write his own
name, will have the least doubt that out
of q hundred drafts Of his own signature,
only ohe being genuine. lie can select the
real autograph without possibility of mis-
take. Now | am not much of Il dabster
