Hopeless Without Outside Aid.
From the New Haven Palladium. Dec. 2O.l
Mr.. Henderson, the HERALD commissioner 70
Cuba, tells very interesting and apparently trust
worthy story. His literary abilities are OF higher
order than those OF Mr.; Stanley, and he talks less
about himself and the journal he represents. he
gives us the first glimpse OF the patriot army OF the
Cuban Republic. He estimates the insurgent forces
at about twelve thousand men, poorly clad, but
wen armed aud supplied with abundant provisions.
He found the spirit OF the insurgents indomitaDle,
and they declared they would never surrender.
President Cespedes and his immediate followers
refused the terms OF surrender which Mr. Hen
derson was authorized to ofrer tnem. The war is
sanguinary In the extreme, neither side giving
quarter. Both the spaniards and Cubans admit
that even the wounded are massacred. The insur-
gents base their hopes Of success on tring out the
Spanish government. The loss Of life on the part
Of the Spanish troops more by disease than by the
bullets OF the insurgents, is enormous, and the re-
sources OF the island have fallen away so much that
1t is doubtful II it ever pays the cost OF the army
sent to reduce the rebels. But Mr.. HendersOn's
letters IN which he has evidently tried to be
strictly impartial leave the Impression that the in
surrection, without outside aid, is hopeless one
The insurgents are only able to maintain guerilla
warfare, and are being gradually pushed back
further into the interior.

ELECTION WAGERs.-What earthly
good can come of silly election bets pas
ses comprehension. A pair of champion
noodles in Indiana INDUCED in this spe-
cies of amusement lately, and covered
themselves with glory. One of them
wheeled the other from Valparaiso, Ind,
to Chicago, because Grant was elected.
1t is gratifying to learn that the loser
found his work the hardest he had ever
done in his life, and the happy winner
said his ride was the most uncomfortable
he had ever taken. Both were disguised
at the end of the clownish performance
Are there no asylums for idiots in Indi-
ana? Now, much more satisfactory
election bet was made by Bridgeport
lady and gentleman. If Grant should
be elected, the young man would win
the lady; and if Greeley was elected,
the lady was to have the young man.
The result shows that the young man
won the bet, and though the young lady
was the loser, she has not expressed the
slightest dissatisfaction or manifested
aught that approaches chagrin. 1t is
pleasing to see losses borne with such
commendable philosophy.

ovERwoRK AND WANT OF SLEEP

Overwork causes great deal of i'll
health in farming communities. Very
many farmers in their efforts to avoid
idleness, which they consider sin and
a shame, go to the other extreme and
lose both health and happiness thereby.
While industry tends to health, overwork
breaks down the constitution and short
ems life. 1t Injuries both the body and
mind, and if long continued results eth
er IN death or premature old age. For
this sin, and sin it is to overwork, there
is not nearly the excuse on the part of
farmers which there was twenty years
ago. Now one has machines to take, in
a great degree, the place of hand labor,
and the farmer who viii use them need
not break down his health by working
too hard But it is not the farmer who
is most liable to overwork. The farm
er's wife is generally the great sufferer.
Every day in the year, Sundays not ex-
cepted, she has much to do. Often there
is as much required of her as two women
ought to perform. AS the result of her
overwork health is lost and she either
dies long before her time or lives only to
suffer the penalties of the law she has
transgressed. For this course there is
no justification. No woman ought to
work herself to death, and no man is JUS
titled In requiring or allowing his wife
to do so. He ought to furnish her with
household machines, and if her health
is poor either help her himself or hire a
| girl to help her. This killing himself
and his wife, which so many farmers do,
for the sake of laying up few dollars
which they never expect to use, and
which they cannot carry with them when
they die. is a miserable speculation as
far as profit and loss are concerned, and
a sinful, shameful thing for any man to
do.
Want of sleep is one of the chief caus-
es of much of the physical and mental
trouble of farmers and their families
During the busy season, when the farm.
er rises at four in the morning and work:
until six or seven In the evening, ther

or mind in perfect health and vigor-

A good story is told of widow lady
whose husband died far away from no me,
and it took so long for his remains to
reach her that his relict had quite recov-

large lunch party when they finally ar
rived. A wagon drove up to the door,

''Epizootic Zomosis" is name the
invention of which reflects great credit
on the noble army Of horse doctors, and
no wonder it often proves fatal. Some
short, sweet name, such as "Hoss-air'
or Head bots" would be much more
pleasant and less dangerous. The pres
ent tendency, however, is to preserve
something of the grandeur of the origi-
nal name for the disease and call it
"Epizoozy."

ASHES ASA CATTLE FEED.-One of
our substantial subscribers, in recent
conversation, gave his experience in
training neat stock affected with the hab-
it of eating wood, chewing bones, &C.
His cattle were one spring affected this
way; they became thin in flesh, refused
to eat hay, and presented a sickly APP
pearance He had no impression that
their food lacked the constituents for
making bone, but his neighbors used
bone meal without noticing any good re-
suits whatever. At last, he put about
four bushels Of leached ashes in his barn
yard, and threw out to them about a
shovelful each day. They all ate as if
with evident relish. After turning them
out to pasture, he put one peck of dry
ashes per week en- the ground in the pas
ture. They ate all up, and gnawed off
the grass where it had been lying. The
cattle began to improve, gaining flesh
and looking better than they had done
for several years. He says this morbid
appearance was unnoticed years ago.
from the fact that the ground was ashy
from the burning of the wood and land
clearings. Latterly he gives one quart
of ashes mixed with the same quantity
of salt to twelve head of cattle, about
once week.-Lice Stock Journal.

By following this for very few years
very great increase in egg production
may be attained. My attention was
drawn to this subject by friend having
a Brahma pnllet, which laid nearly three
hundred eggs in one month, tho
valueless as fancy bird, and the quail
ty descended to several of her progeny;
and | have since found other instances
which prove conclusively that vast i'm
provement might easily be effected in
nearly all our breeds were that careful
selection of brood stocks made for this
purpose which the fancier bestows on
other objects. 1t is to be regretted more

room than had, L hope myself to make
some experiments in this direction short
ly. I will say now that l am perfectly
certain the number of two hundred eggs
per annum might be attained in few
years with perfect ease were the object
Systematically sought; and l trust these
few remarks may arouse general atten-

all that is necessary without any knowl-
