"There are good bonds and good stocks of all
kinds, whose interest will be paid as certainly
as that of government bonds but be careful
when you buy that you get such. Let safety
be the first consideration, and do not be
tempted by the promise of large dividends to
precarious investments, where the princi-
pal may soon melt away as the morning dew"

ing to cut a new channel around Bloody is
land. The river banks, as high up as the
mouth Of the Missouri, are in state of
serious dilspidation. At one point thousand
feet Of ground has been washed away within
ten years. The soil thus loosened is carried
down by the current and forms sandbars,
blockading the harbor of the city. The stu
aten is a novel one, and justifes all the anx-

the ablest engineering talent to solve the

atory, and for this reason he favored the
motion to strike out.
Mr.. PERRY of Oxford favored the amend
ment. AS he understood it, the Portland,
Saco and Portsmouth railroad company ask
for leave to alter their travel running from
kittery to Bddeford, and the main reason
they urged before the committee was that
they wanted double track. They wished it
for the accommodation of the public, and
there was no opposition to it, except by the
people along the line as it is located now.
They feared that if new track was built, the
old track would be taken up. lie agreed to
the proposition that railroad company has
no right to discontinue a road, except by au-
thority of the Legislature, but it would be
well enough to have this provision that future
Legislatures may, if call for discrimination
of this track is made, turn back to the act of
~, and see what The design of that Legisla-
ture was. He did not regard this provision
as a scarecrow, but as safeguard to protect
the people who live along the line of this
track.
MIR. CARLETON again spoke in favor of the
motion to strike out the provision.
Mr. Snow said his constituents had taken
stock in that road, and have helped make it
what 1t is to day Many have their all in
vested along its line, and if this track should
De taken up their property would not be
worm twenty-five cents on dollar. lie
hoped the provision would be retained in the
Dill, for the protection of his constituents and
the people along the line of this road.
MT. PERKINS of Pennington argued in ia
'cr ol 'he amenement. If the provision was
OF no earthly consequence, as had been stat
Gu, ne ald not see why it could not remain.
MT HOLDEN remarked that there wasIa
gooa oeai OF force in the facts stated, that the
people along the line of this road have put
their fortunes in it, and if bv anv chance
this track should be withdrawn thew would be
ruined. This was the common sense view of

ers, with their first calves, which gave for
some three months after caying, on pasture

Swarms Leaving their Hives.

One of the most vacations things the bee
keeper has to submit to. is that of swarms
leaving their hives. After being called from
the field to hive a swarm of bees. and losing
an hour or so in hiying them, it is very pro.
voking to find, day or two after, that the
swarm has gone, and the hive empty. forci.

they were gone" By questioning him n lin.

saved enough clover seed for his own sowing,
sold enough to pay for all the dry goods used
in his family, and received s25 cash in add
ton. This is the way in which he did it,.

he fed his stock-the wire being two or three
inches above the close bottom of the trough.
