Failure of the Crops in Hungary.

From Hungary comes intelligence which
renders it probable that great demand
will be made upon the wheat crop of
America for this year in various portions
of the Monarchy. The prospect of crops
has been completely destroyed more than
four hundred thousand acres are now un-
der water. Somewhat similar has been
the experience of Bohemia. Toward the
end of May there were heavy falls of rain
accompanied with waterspouts so that the
Rivers Elbe, Moldace, Eyer and Beraun
have overlooked their banks and inundat-
ed the country with such fearful rapidly
that in the most of the flooded districts the
waters rose four and five feet in minute
Great disaster was the result; more than
two hundred persons We're drowned, and
an immense number of houses have been
destroyed. In some places whole villages
are in ruins, while millions of dollars
worth of property have been destroyed in
crops, houses, roads, bridges and stored
goods. A direct consequence of this fail
ure Of the markets which have supplied "a
great portion of Europe with grain would
appear to be the necessity of drawing large
supplies from other countries.-N. Y. Cor

Horn All, or Hollow Horn,

In reply to Thos. NIiller's inquiry page
279,) as to what allied his heifer, l had COW
that was taken sick, with the same symp-
toms as his. My COW was healthy, APP
parently, and in good order. Some time
the last of April she calved did WELL and
gave full mess of milk until the calf was
about week old, when she began to sick
en- and the water TO run out of her eyes.
She would stagger around in the yard as if
she was blind. / examined her horns to see
if they were hollow, and thought them all
right so did some of my neighbors who
examined them. Her droppings were hard
and black as tar. / put spirits of turpen-
tine on her horns and gave her about a
pint ofhogs' lard and about the same guam
tity of linseed oil then gave her pound
of EPSON salts, ali to no effect. l got two
pound more of salts, and put it down her,
without much change, except for the
worse. Next morning L took my gimlet
and bored into one horn, and found that
was hollow as drum the other had lit
tie blood and matter. My COW is all right
now; gives from twenty to twenty -four
quarts of milk per day at present 1t
may be that if Mr.. Miller had examined the
horns of his heifer, he would have found
the disease there.-Abraham Wilmer, Mia

Jat, DeIivery a, DandridGe.

Last night four of our sheriff boarders con-
cluded to change their location and leave for
parts unknown, without saying farewell or
giving the customary notice. The prisoners
were confined in strong cage and every pre-
caution has been used by our sheriff, Mr..
Walker and his deputy Mr. Webb, TO make
the Jail perfectly safe and secure, and to pre-
vent the escape of prisoners, but at some hour
in the dead of night these four men, having
previously cut the bars of their cage, made
their way into the main room of the Jail then,
pryng open the large iron door, entered the
front room where, tying their bed clothes,
which they had cut, twisted and knotted into
n rope, TO the Dars of another cage they went
through the front window and descended to the
ground and made their escape. They made no
noise in their work, as no one was awakened,
not even the prisoners in the adjoining cages.
Mr.. Webb was sleeping in the Jail and knew
nothing OF the affair until morning.
The cages are made of heavy cross bars of
iron securely bolted together, and the prisoners
cut eight of these bars and the heads of two
bolts. From all appearances the work must
have been done for some time as every cut was
very rusty. Our jail. under the supervision of
Sheriff Walker has been noted throughout the
country for its safety, and prisoners have been
sent from other counties here for safe keeping.
No blame can be attached to the Sheriff or his
deputy in this matter. Yours,
o. p. DLUoCK.

FARM AND GARDEN.
Prepare for the Turnlp Crop.

The most skeptical person would be con-
WINGED of the utility of folding sheep upon
turnips, if he could see the corn now grow
ing upon the piece of ground on the far m
of the writer thus treated. The corn vas
rather late planted but the stalks are
from eight TO ten feet tall at this writing,
June oath, and some of them are so large
that they cannot be spanned with one
hand. In color, they are as dark as the
richest bottom land corn. Upon the rest
of the same field and same quality of land,
the corn will not average more than waist
high.
Now, the bringing this piece of ground
to this condition of fertility cost nothing.
The expense of the turnips was more than
betrayed by the benefit to the sheep dur
ing the winter. The corn on an acre of
naturally much richer land, MANFRED last
year with eight hundred pounds of Ober's
Manipulated, was not equal to the corn,
this year, on this folded land. This sheep
manure will be felt for term of years.
If any one will try this folding process
even on as small a scale as an acre or half
acre of turnips, it will not be necessary to
urge him to repeat it afterwards on larger
scale.
The farmer may say 81 have no port
able fence and cannot afford to by one
Very well. He will be in different con-
ditiOn from most of us, if he has not some
old and light pine rails. These will an
swer for an experiment, as the pen can be
easily moved.
Another may complain that he has no
suitable ground for turnips. He is under
the impression that he must do a. his
father did before him. That is, begin to
cow-pen the turnip patch in the winter,
continue it during the spring and summer,
and pillow it every time that corn is plow-
ed. But this is all unnecessary. There is
full time now to prepare turnip ground.
Take any land, it may be broomsedge, that
has good clay foundation. Turn it over
well with q two-horse pillow, subsoiling it,
if possible. Harrow it first the way it was
plowed; then cross-harrow and continue
to cross-harrow until the surface is per-
fectly pulverized. Lay off the rows two
and half feet apart with deep furrow :;
apply stable manure in the furrow if with
in reach, if not, three or four hundred
pounds of some reliable superphosphate to
the acre, cover with two burrows, level the
top of the ridge with a board and SOW the
seed. The roller will be of great use after
sowing. Thin out the turnips to ten inch
es distance; plow and hoe once, and the
work is completed. If the turnips come
well, and are carefully folded with sheep,
that farmer will see the finest cotton OF
corn next year that he ever saw grow Oh
upland, and the manure will not have ac
tually cost him cent.

Accident to u Horse.

Yesterday morning little after ten o'clock,
while Charles Saunders was driving an unbro-
ken horse in North Knoxville, the animal took
fright and ran away running into another horse
owned by Mr. Charles Christian, that was

the vehicle Saunders was driving penetrated

strange Stories COncerntnE Mexican hue
hnnnn's Death.


bnnnn's Death.
From the jackson tMich) Ciiizen.1 e.
Mr.. Kendall, Mexican Enohanan's BUSH
ness agent at the time of his death, passed
through this city the other day, ell route
for the Boston jubilee, and remained here
for day or two. He told q strange story
concerning the death of Buchanan, which
will be of interest to our citizens, inasmuch
rs one of the chief actors in this drama re-
sided in Jackson some two years ago. This
lady is Miss Gabrielle Mexican, who came
here from Toledo and resided one summer
with an uncle, j. Mabbitt Brown ESD.
and then accepted an engagement with
Mr.. Buchanan.
Mr. Kendall reports that previous to his
death he gave Mr.. buchanan some ten
thousand dollars in Government bonds,
but that upon his death, which witch was
very sudden, only five hundred dollars
could be found-the remainder having
mysteriously disappeared, without a trace
of its whereabouts. Miss Mexican was
very avaricious and ambitious and is re-
ported to have said that no mans life
should stand between her and her advance
ment in wealth as well as in position.
Suspicious circumstances transporting in adj
dition to the disappearance of his money,
led Mr. Buchanan's friends to believe that
he had been poisoned, and by Miss Nc
Kean. Buchanan's daughter, Mr.. kendall
says, has caused her fathers body to be
disinterred for the purpose of a chemical
analysis, and, if the suspicious prove true,
Miss Mexican will be arrested

GRAIN FOR GREAT BRITAIN.-Iti is posi-
lively asserted by those well informed that
up to the next harvest, will be fully one
million quarters OF grain, hence the lively
interest exhibited at the grain centres in

statement, there is only one source to
which Great Britain has to resort to obtain
the required amount Of grain, and that is
The new crop in England cannot possibly
be harvested in fit condition for use until

heat last week. Large tanks of water
were kept constantly filled, and i'll these
they lay, and, with lolling tongues and
bloOdshOt eyes, passed away the long and

staples on the green, tore up the sod with
their trunks and carpeted their backs with
