The SEWER ASSESSMENT Since the publiea-
ton of the sewer assessments there has been
great deal Of talk about town in regard TO the mat
ter, and some inquiries have been made as to the
exact wording of the law, by which the assess
mcnts were authorized The following is the
section of the ordinance passed March %, 1867,
and approved by the voters April 1G, 1867, which
refers to the subject
Section A. Every person owning real estate
upon any street in which any drain or sewer
NAV be laid under or by virtue of this actand
upon the line thereof or whose real estate may
be benefited thereby, shall pay 10 said city such
sum as the mayor and aldermen shall assess upon
him as his .prOportionate share of the eXpendi-
ture Of the city for drains and sewers; and the
sum so assessed upon him shah constitute &
lien upon said real estate for two years after it is
assessed, and if not paid within ninety days
after notice of said assessment served upon the
owner OF said land or his agent, may he levied
by a sale Of said real estate, to be conducted in
the same manner as a sale of real estate for the
non payment Of taxes.
And any person aggrieved by the doings OF
the mayor and aldermen under this section,
may, at any time within three mouths from re-
ceiying notice of any assessment apply for Il
Jury, in the manner provided in the sixth sec
ton OF the lorty-eighth chapter of the general

Foxes as SheepsHerders.

The Stockton (Cal.) Republican vouch-
es for the following story: "People of
ten wonder at the remarkable instinct
displayed by well-trained shepherd
dogs, but what will they say when we
tell them of band of sheep that is
guarded by foxes alone The story
seems improbable, but of its truth we
have the most undoubted proof. On
Whiskey Hill, four miles from Milton,
may be seen, almost any day, a large
flock Of sheep herded by foxes. These
guardians of the little lambs are three
in number-one a gray fox and the
other two of the species known as the
red fox. In point of intelligence these
novel shenSzerds are said to greatly sur
pass the best trained dogs. They per-
form their work well, and from morn
ing till night are ever on the alert. The
gray one seems to control, and in a
great measure direct, the actions of the
other two. a gentleman informs us
that he yesterday saw the gray fox
pursue and attack hog that had seized
lamb and was making off with it.
The contest was short and sharp, and
resulted in the hog dropping the lamb
and beating hasty retreat. The fox
picked up the apparently uninjured
lamb and carried it back to the flock.

But at last the man comes who tOW

soil gives up its fruit ami the mountains
their treasures, the sea its wealth and
the forests their innumerable virtues;
and he, patient and submissive, who
learns the rule of all and obeys it, be-
comes the ruler of all. AS the years go
on, he finds new forces around him and,
by obeyiug them, extends his dominion
into wider realms. His two hands, that
were his first and almost his only SER
| wants, are now promoted 10 do only the
finer work. The great forces that he has
called from their hiding. places have
built his palaces, bridged great rivers,
and bound together the remotest cor
ners of his kingdom. They run upon
his errands quickly as the lightning I;
they carry his wealth across the ocean
with great wings or steam; they make
him the omnipotent ruler of the world,
just in the degree that he perfectly
obeys their laws. If he infringcs their
rights but for a moment, any one of
them is ready to take his life.
AS yet, it must be said, our young
prince has only learned to call few of
his servants by their names, and often
fails in his efforts to give his commands
even to these, and enforce their obe-
dience. But he is improving year by
year,-his wealth increasing in exact
proportion to his diligence and obe-
dience; and no one can tell how great
will be his power, when the whole OF
his vast kingdom shall be reduced to
his control. Young Friends.

Agricultural.
Mules on the Farm.

There has always been a great deal of
prejudice in some parts of the country
in regard to using mules on the farm.
1t is true if they are not properly
handled and broken in the first place
they are apt to be unruly at times, but
not more so than some horses, and if
properly broken and kindly cared for,
they are not nearly so liable to run
away or frighten as horses. 1t is true
they do not look so well to carriage
as horses, but where economy is con.
suited there is certainly much to be
said in favor of the mule, as it does not
cost much over half the amount to feed
and shoes a pair Of mules for one year,
that it docs pair Of horses, and, TAX
ing the year through they will do
more work; besides this, they will last
twice as long.
These are all important considera-
tions in determining the most econom-
ical animal to use on a farm. Every
farmer, in moderate or straigtened
circumstances, is willing to forego some
thing in the matter of pleasure if there
by his gains are greater. Ifan animal
can be raised to the age ofusefulness,
for less expense, can be kept after that
time on cheaper food, if his sickness and
shoeing cost the owner less money, and
his working years are greater, q farmer
can well afford to accept some draw
backs in the matterof appearance ofease
of management. But there are many
purposes for which the mule is almost
universally regarded as the superior Of
the horse. One such employment is
plowing among corn, potatoes, and
other cultivated crops. For this pur
pose the mule has many advantages
His feet are small and his disposition
is to put them down very nearly in a
line. This being the case he seldom
Injuries ridges, hills or crops by tread
ing on them. The plowing of cultiva-
ted crops must be attended to during
the severest heat of summer. Horses
are rendered more impatient by in
sects, and are less able to endsre the
extreme heat of the weather than
mules; their skin is also easier chafed
and they are much more liable to be
laid up at the most important period |
of the year by various diseases then |

Better Feed, Better Manure,

Underthis heading the Maine Farmer
says:
Few truths in agricultural economy
are better established than this: that the
better and richer the feed given to ami.
mails, the better will be the manure
made. Animals kept on straw and
coarse, rough fodder, with little or no
provender, even if they have this sort
OF food in abundance, will produce
manure of very inferior quality to that
made from corn meal, Gotten seed, rape
cake or other articles rich in nitrogen.
It's custom with the best English far
mers-a custom as well as business
to feed for the purpose of obtaining the
manure. And while there is almost al.
ways a loss in feeding animals upon
purchased, food, leaving out of calcula-
ton the manure they make, when this
is considered, especially if one wishes to
restore or maintain the fertility of a
farm, all experiments show that feed
ing animals is the cheapest mode of OBJ.
