A CLERICAL ANrCpoTE -Somc thr-
ty-ivc or forty years ago, Il Mr.. Viii
liamS, Il clergyman of the old school,
somewhat eccentric, came to Salem from

Of the brethren in the ministry. Daring

his daughter:
Il am GOING to lie down. Ii 81 Paul
himself comes, don't disturb me"
MIR. i5cntly, who preached in the East
church, and who had been very intimate
with Mr.. Williams, but had not seen him
for several years, hearing that he was in
town, hurried oil, after dinner, to make
his old friend a call.
''Where is brother Williams 1'' he in
qnired, as he met the daughter.

rcjoinder, in tie inimitahlc manner pc.
culiar to Mr. Bcntly.
Resistance to such "mu-t' was out
Of the question. The room of the sleep,
cr was invaded, and with no GENTLE shake
and a corresponding voice, Mr.. William,
was aroused. lie was delighted to sec

FEEDING lIoRsEs.-Wc find that but
few farmers have any system about feed
ing their horses, or if they pretend To
have any, 1t is not very strictly adhered
to, 10y either themselves or their employ
crs. Ali OF us admit the advantages Of
regularity in meals for mankind, even
though We wholly NEGLECT it with orr
animals. Aud not only do we believe
in meals at REGULAR hours, but in uniform
quantities "r portions. Man, endowed
with reason, seldom cats more than he
wants ; the animal, without reason, will
eat far more than is GOOD for it, and in
some cases enough 10 cause death. Much
food is wasted by such irrcgularity Of
feeding, and the horses are not kept in
near as GOOD condition as those that re-
ccive less food in proper way, and at
proper intervals. Horses should never
be allowed TO become cloycd with any
food. II too much hay is fed to them,
they will blow upon it, pail il down, and
trample it under their feet. As gen.
cral rule, about one half the hay that is
fed is wasted. Oats are better for driv-
ing horses. When considerable grain is
given, only small amount of hay
should be fed II those who feed large
ly of hay will look carefully after the
feeding, they will make a great saving
thereby. What is true of the waste in
feeding horses, is TO Il great extent true
in the management Of horned cattle.
In brief, feed moderately and regularly,
and always keep the animals in good
condition. D. f. C. Hyde.

CORRESPONDENCE
Death in the state House.

CoLUMBUs, O, Jan. q, 1871.
At about a quarter after this P

ing its afternoon business, members,
were observed to whisper each other
from the outward circle of seats to-
wards the center,-foIlowing the low
whisper was seen a wave of sadness
expressed in the face of each mem
Der as he received the words, "Col.
Young Of the House is dead, an the
ComptroUer's Office. Presently Sen
ator Woodwork rose, announced
the event to the President of the Sen
ate, moved the appointment of a
committee to report what action
should be taken, and then moved an
adjournment, which was carried by
the solemn response of every mem
ber present.
One by one, and in groups, the
members descended to the Comp
troller's room. There, on a lounge,
in the gentleman's Gress of every

The pale face, fixed and still, but
natural as life, connasted beautifully

breath each beholder retired, with
another and. most impressive lesson
Of mortality.

old, died of bleeding of the lungs.
