THE INoOME TAX.

SEVERAL important cases were argued before
Judge Strong, presiding in the United States
Circuit Court at Philadelphia, on Saturday
last, which involve the constitutionality Of
the income tax. The principal ground taken
by the opponents of the tax is that it is
necessarily direct tax, and that it must
therefore be apportioned among the respect
i've States (if it is imposed at alD according to
their representation, instead of being col
lected from individual citizens in such man.
ner that some sections of the Union pay much
more than their proportionate share. This
point was well sustained in the argu-
ments made on Saturday, and it is difficult to
see how they can be completely answered.
The income tax is unjust in principle, unfair
and unequal in practice, and liable to so
many objections, that it would be very
satisfactory, even at this late day, if it was
condemned by the highest legal tribunal of
the country on the grounds advanced. Con-
gress should have abrogated it, absolutely, at
the last session, but, since demagoguism
on the one hand and pretended national ne
cessities on the other prevented repeal, it
is to be hoped the courts will put their seal
of condemnation on this iniquitous mode of
raising revenue.

SeasOnable Hints about Swine.

1t is said that the hogs that have been
marketed during the recent packing sea-
son were of better quality than those of
any former season. Farmers are begin
ming to pay more attention to the breed
ing and management of swine, but there
is still room for improvement in the selec-
ton of the most improved breeding ami
mails, the construction Of pens, and the
preparation Of food. Sufficient attention
is not paid to the wants of the animals in
summer they are in many places left to
depend entirely on clover and grass, get
no grain and have no defence from the
heat of the sun, or from rain. When a
hog is roaming at large, he is his own
physician, and selects such plants, etc,
as are remedies for his diseases. Swine
are particularly fond of plants which con-
tain large proportion of sulphur. Com
mon mustard, or few plants ofwild mus
tard, will supply this. Radishes and the
top rind Of the rutabage contain sulpher,
and may be used with good effect The
peculiar smell Of horse radish arises from
the sulphurous volatile oil in it. When
hogs are shut up in yard or pen, they
should be supplied with preventives of
the diseases to which they are subject
A mixture of earth and chalk should al
ways be within reach. Coal ashes OR
powdered charcoal are essential. Salt
should be given daily in small quantities.
A few grains of nitre are beneficial in
warm weather. Sulphur in some shape
should always be available. Perfect clean
illness should be observed, and regularity
in feeding, etc. Now that cheese fac
tories are becoming so general, it is i'm
portant for farmers to know that when
and barley meal make excellent fattening
food for swine Western Rural.

Man or Woman 4?

The authorities of ST. Louis are Just
now in quandary over some sort of "a be-
ing that is capable Of transforming itself
into both man and woman (to all outward
appearance), at pleasure. This remark
able parsonage represents both man and
woman, as occasion or convenience may
require. His Cor herr advent in st. Louis
began with renting elegant apartments
for himself and sister. The next day the
sister was found in the room, but was not
seen to enter. She said her brother had
gone out, and would be in towards even
ing and pay the rent. Watch was kept
for the coming of the brother, but he
came not. During the vigil of the land
lady the brother was seen to go out, who
informed her that he had given the money
to his sister, but upon repairing to the
room no sister could be found Still Ia
ter the brother came in, and the sister
was seen to 90 out, she telling the same
story of her brother, but no brother could
be found in the rooms, neither could the
parties be found together. This kind of
farce was enacted for several days, when
the lady Of the house thinking she had
been bewitched applied to the police for
succor, but they could not fnd the broth
er in, and falling in getting her rent, the
landlady caused the removal Of her mys-
terious tenant She next turned up at a
hotel where she "sponged" dinners one
|. day as a young man, and next day as
woman. He, she, or rather it, was then
arrested and subjected to a medical ex-
animation, but even that failed to solve
the mystery. The doctors looked wise,
and shook their heads, declaring their
inability to give correct information in
regard to its sex. The matter is still be-
ing investigated in the meantime he is
allowed to don such apParelas she chooses,
license being given it to that effect,

Chalk for Stock.

When an animal is found licking its
fellow, it is proof that uneasiness is pres
ent in the stomach, and the licking of his
neighbor is habit contracted by instinct,
with view to removing the unpleasant
ness. Unfortunately, instinct is not suf-
Gcent at all times to avoid dangerous
practices, and if we take for granted that
the stomach is at all times charged with
acrid matter, we shall, without hesitation,
find remedy. 1t is only necessary to
place within their reach shallow troughs,
in which is kept a supply of common
chalk If an animals has a supcrabund-
ance of acrid matter, it will most certain
ly neutralize the excess OF acid. Il an
animals has not acid in excess, aud par
takes of chalk, it will do no harm. 1t is
often too late to administer remedies to
young stock, and the placing of chalk
within their reach cannot be made too
early.

Green Color in Pickles.

It is said that to impart an excellent
green color to pickles they must be first
covered with boiling hot saltwater, and
after a short time the water poured off
and the pickles drained They are then
to be placed in an earthen pot and cover
ed with boiling vinegar, the top put on,
and the whole kept at lukewarm tempera-
ture for long time, the vinegar being
poured off every day, heated to boiling,
and turned again upon the pickles. This
is to be continued until the color is a
beautiful green. The vinegar used in
this process is then to be poured off aud
replaced by fresh, and the jar closed
tightly. This method of coloring is per-
fectly harmless, although the result is as
bright green as that of verdigris.

Tricks of n Juggaer.

The fair-famed Robert Heller OCCASION
ally does a neat thing for his own amuse-
nent, very much to the surprise of those
who happen to be present.
Recently while passing colored vend-
er of provisions, MIR. Heller suddenly
paused, and inquired. "How do you sell
eggs. auntie?'
'.Dem eggs" was the response "dey
am worth pieayune apeace; fresh, too
de last one of 'em; billed 'em myself, and
know dey's fust rate.''
"Well, I'll try onc," said the magician,
laying down bit of fractional currency.
Have you pepper and saltY'
Yes, sir, dere dey is" said the sable
saleswoman, watching her customer with
intense interest.
Leisurely drawing out little penknife
Mr.. Heller proceeded very quietly to cut
the egg exactly in half, when suddenly a
bright new twenty-five cent piece was dis
covered lying Embedded in the yolk, ap-
parently as bright as when it came from
the mint. Very cody the great magician
transferred the coin to his pocket, and tax
ing up another egg, inquired. '-and how
much dc you ask for this egg?'
''De fact am, boss, dis egg am worth a
dime. shuah."
"All right" was the response; "here's
the dime. Now give me the egg"
Separating it with an exact precision
that the colored lady watched eagerly, a
quarter eagle was most carefully picked
out of the egg. and placed in the vest
pocket of the operator as before. The old
woman was thunder struck, as well she
might have been, and her customer had to
ask this price of the third egg two or three
times before he could obtain a reply.
Oars no use talkin', mars, said the
bewildered old darkey. 81 can't let you
hab dat egg no how for less than quar-
ter; declare 1 can't"
.Very good" said Heller. whose fea-
lures were as sober as an undertaker's ;
''there is your quarter, and here isthe egg.
All right"
As he opened tho last egg brace of
five dollar gold peices were discovered
snugly deposited in the heart of the yolk.
Jingling the m merrlly together in his lit
tie palm, he remarked !:
'Very good eggs, indeed. 1 like them !;
and while l am about it, will buy a
dozen. What is the price?'
81 say, price % exclaimed the astonish-
ed daughter of Ham. You couldn't buy
dem eggs, mars for all de money you's
got. No that you couldn't. Psc gwine
to take dem eggs all home-I is; an dat
money IN item all belongs to me. Itdoes
dat. Couldn't sell TO more of dem eggs,
nowhow."
Amid the roar of tie spectators, the be-
nighted African started home, to 'smash
dem eggs" but with what success, we
cannot say.
