FOUND DEAD.-About noon, yester-
day, two boys jumped tho enclosure of
what is known as Taylor's burying
ground, to give chase to rabbit, when
they stumbled over crocus bag, which
they opened and found to contain the
partially decomposed remains Of male
child-the offspring of colored parents.
Tho child had evidently been placed in
this unfrequented spot few hours after
its birth. When found, tho infants
mouth was stopped with piece of raw
meat. which horrible plan had evidently
been adopted with the double intention
OF causing its death and hushing it's
cries while in its death throes. The
fiends who could perpetrate an outrage
of this kind are fit only for nm abode in
torment and anguish. They may con-
ceal their crime for few days, but their
guilty consciences will inlict q punish
ment upon them which will only be ex-
ceeded by that OF an outraged law, when
they ore arrested, tried and convicted.
The proper authorities were notified Of
the discovery Of the dead body; where
upon the Coroner summoned q jury Of
inquest, who returned the following
verdict:
After herring the opinion OF oDf.

The Horse MaladY.

The Science of Health says: 'If any one
can understand how human being, suf-
fering of bad cold, with cough, nasal dis
charge, pain in the chest, and soreness OF
the throat, should be treated, he ought to
know how to manage horse affected with
the same symptoms. True, we can not
administer the warm foot-bath, the vapor
bath, nor the sweating pack, so conven-
iently to horses, nor is it necessary. AS
the horse is accustomed to more simple
habits, and can live without artificial heat,
more simple remedial measures will ans
wer. But any animal, when sick, can be
treated hygienically, and that is all that is
necessary.
We can at least follow the good advice
which Hippocrates gave more than two
thousand years ago: If you can not do any
good, you can at least avoid doing harm
We can refuse to bleed, withhold the
drugs and give nature chance. The sick
horse should have clean room away from
the miasma of theI stable, protected from
chilling winds, but with an abundant sup
ply of fresh air.
Once day the whole surface should be
sponged with tepid water, and rubbed
thoroughly dry with flannel cloths, and
afterwards covered with a warm blanket.
He may drink as much pure water, but
not very cold, as he will; do not force or
coax him to eat until he inclines to. Keep
few good carrots and apples before him
constantly. They are better medicine than
anything that can be found in the drug

How to Feed Corn.Stalks Probably.

The rearing and feeding of animals is
receiving, as it should, from farmers and
herkmen in all parts of the country
greater attention every year; and especial
~ is this true of dairymen, whose only
hope of gain rests in their success in OBJ
tanning paying yields from their cows.
Corn-stalks enter largely into the fall feed
of dairy COWS, and how to feed them is the
important question. The common prac-
tice is to feed in the bundle, as but few
farmers feel able or willing to use cutting
machine. This feeding in the bundle,
without any preparation, 1 am fully salts
fled is very wasteful, as not only are the
butts left, but frequently nearly the whole
stalk.
have learned by experience that little
brine sprinkled upon stalks once every
day, just before feeding, is of material adj
vantage in many respects. The weak
brine will cause the COWS to consume near
ly all, even when fed whole the flow OF
milk increases, the condition of the COWS
improves, and they show greater content
| ment especially is this last remark true
| on cold, windy and rainy days. find il
much better as general rule, when it can
be done, to feed salt on the food, instead o.
feeding it alone. In no case should more
| than one day be permitted to pass without
brining the mornings feed. The brine
should not be strong, only enough to fur
nish sufficient salt to the cows.
Of course the COWS should have access t.
plenty of water; this brine food will cause
| them to drink more, and thus increase the
flow of milk. Let my brother farmers try
this, and they will thereafter place greater
value upon corn-stalks.-Liue Stock, Farm

Apples for Sick Horses.

A correspondent of the Country Gentle
man says: "All my horses have been at.
tackled with the prevailing disease, and ny
main object has been to keep them warh,
clean and comfortable, and to give them
succulent food and such as will operate as
an expectorant. There was enough green
clover left of the second growth which
had moved as their principal food, and
gave them several quarters of fresh apples
three times Gaily. The consequence was
light-the one first attacked began t.
amend decidedly within a week. I found
that had large quantity of windfalls in
my orchard, which in this abundant sea
son had not been regarded as worth gath
ering, and these furnished about twenty
bushels of food for the horses. Apples are
wellknown expectorant, and they re-
lieve the cough materially"

features of the place. The view from the hOtei
is extensive, sweeping the horizon for miles, and
embracing almost every desirable feature in the
landscape. These hills and valleys during the
summer are aglOw with health, life, light, JOY
and love. MelOdiOusly rings the merry laughter
of bows and girls, young men and maidens, old
men and venerated mothers, as tempted by the
scenery, they lose themselves in ainbrosial val

EmbosOmed amid the rock-ribbed and everlast-

OBITUARY.

Mrs. MARY H. CRAIGHEAD, wife of the late
Hon. David Craighead, died at her residence in
this city on Friday morning, May "A, 1872, in the
eighty-third year of her age.
She was born in Warrenton, in the State Of
North Carolina, and passed the early years of
her life in the family of her paternal uncle, Hon.
Nathaniel Macon. Reared and educated with
such surroundings, it is no wonder if, in after
life, she was characterized by such eminent
practical sense, such high-tOned devotion to
duty, such conscientious regard for the rights OF
others, such enlightened judgment and steady
adherence to principle. For these were the
qualities for which Mr.. Macon was so remarks
bic. Of this great and good man, Mr. Benton,
in his "Thirty Years" thus SPEAKS; MILO
and governed in all his actions by reason and
Judgment, and deeply imbued with Bible images,
this virtu0us and patriotic man was called by
Mr.. Jefferson the East Of the Romans His firm
ness his patriotism his elf-denial, his devotion
to duty and disregard Of office and emOlument,
his mOdeSty, integrity, self-cOnuOl, and subjec-
ton of conduct tOthe convictions OF reason and
the dictates of virtue, all so steadily eKemplided
in a long life, were all shown from the early age
of eighteen, and only confirmed in the subse-
0uent public exhibitions of long, beautiful and
exalted career. Mr.. Macon was the real Cincin
natus of America, and the pride and ornament
of his native State of North Carolina" In such
a school was Mrs. CRAIGHEAD brought up, and
well did she profit by the lessons there taught.
Removing to Tenne see, she, in the year 1918,
intermarried with Mr.. David Craighead, who,
during long career, stood in the very front rank
of our ablest lawyers. For more than fifty wears
has Mrs. CRAISHEAD lived in Nashville. When
she came to it in 1918 it was a small village of
wooden structures. She lived to see it grow into
a beautiful city. What an eventful period has
she nOtlived through. Born in 1888, she saw the
foundation of the American Union. She saw
the rise and progress of the French Revolution,
the career Of Napoleon, the career OF our own
Andrew jackson, the war of 1872 the war with
Mexico, and the late terrible civil CONFUSION.
In early life Mrs. CRAIGHEAD connected her
self with the Protestant Episcopal Church, Of
which abe continued ever after faithful and
consistent member, She leaves two sons and
daughter, and a large circle Of relatives and
friends, who mourn her loss and revere her
memory, r.
