A MILLIONAIRE IN SACKCLOTH.-A Sara

"Apopg the recent arrlva Is at Saratoga Is a
Young gentleman of great fortune, who Is
regular summer visitor here, and who has ln-
yariably made a great display. This season he
proposes to do the place on quleter scale, on
account of his mothers recent death. This !:
how he goes about it: He has suit of rooms
at the Congress that, under his supervision
have been 50 arranged as to present rather
sombre appearance, for, out OF respect tor his
mothers memory, they have been put IL
mourning. A deep black border runs around
the ceilings, while the wall paper is o.! very
gloomy color; the furniture which arrived TO
day, is from Egypt, and is exceedingly gro
rc:uue in appearance and mysterious 10 style
nothing like it has ever before appeared at car,
atoga. The gentleman announces that ne VIII
not enter the ballroom this summer. but Will
entertain his friends in his rooms-ln an ele-
cant and costly manner Of course-no evIty;
lie is to drive four inland, his groom and
coachman arc to be attired in mourning and
mourning lap robes, like funeral pals, arc to
be spread over the seats Of his carriages, which
will be painted in keeping with the habilllnentS;
of woe. For these embems Of sackcIoth and
ashes he pays $500 per week. Shoddy society
calls this ''filial devotion" and speaks OF him
as such good SOD, y "but so odd and eccen,
trio :" while common sense people are uukind
enough to call him snob, and one Of the most

OFFICE ALEXANDRIA WATER CO.,
" May 18th, 1872.
The unprecedented early commencement of a
general and severe drought has excited the APP
prehenson of short supply of water, and calls
for preventive measures on the part of its Off
GERS to provide against all unnecessary waste by
consumers.
1t is the earnest request of the President and
Directors to heads Of families that unneces-
ssry waste shall be permitted, and that servants
ard children shall shut off hydrants as soon as
possible when used.
Especial attention is called to the use of wash
pans and bath tubs both fruitful sources ofwaste.
The rules and regulations of the Company,
under its charter, provide fines and penalties for
any and all unnecessary aoaste, and it becomes
the imperative duty of the officers, especially
under the condition of scant SUPPLY to enforce
these wholesome regulations upon all offenders.
a deficiency of this indispensable article to
housekeepers induces us to hope that We shall
be sustained in our efforts to prevent all acaste,
while furnishing all parties with q necessary

BUYTNG A HORSE.

First, acquire knowledge of horses,
s. as to know a good horse when you see
one that is model. There is more mo-
ney lost, and more honest men defraud-
ed, in buying and selling of horses, than
in any other product of the farm. For
the last twenty years I have had all sorts
and shapes of horses, from the poney to
the Shanghai, and the greatest weight i'll
the least bulk is the animal for service.
4 horse weighing from HOO to 400
pounds is large enough for farm work
You must understand what you want an
animal for before you go to buy. One
minute is long time enough to examine
the standing points of a horse. These
are good lively eye, inclined to hazel,
and pleasant countenance fiat leg
and open foot; shoulders set rather
back, and thin at the withers; a short
back, and no objection if it is slightly
arched; the proper shape of the hinder
parts depends on what you wish horse
to perform.
The pr yailing blemishes are blind
ness or We k eyes, ringbone, SPAWN,
hoof bound, crbed or thorough pinned,
stihed, etc, all of which an expert OBJ
server will detect III one minutes time.
The heaves is the most difficult to de-
tect, as that depends upon the treatment
the animal has had for the week previ-
Gus. The thumps, or palpitating of the
baort NOV 10 1aEactoI aogiI1- H., ,,,r,-,,,
and exciting the horse, and stopping him
suddenly. As TO the age of the horse
hurting him, it depends on how he has
been used until he is six years old, il
sound then, he is good for twelve OF
twenty years service yet. Judging the
age of a horse by his mouth is very IN
certain. You can tell to certainty
within one year until he is six years old;
then you must judge from general APP
pearance. Some judges rely on the
tusk, but some horses never have any
tusk; about the same number of mares
have tusks as horses that have none.
Some men will tell you that they know
the age of a horse by the jaw, or the
wrinkles about the eye, or by the joints
of the tail. You might as well say that
you know the age of a man by the wrin-
kles IN his face, The wearing of the
teeth depends upon the general health
and lungs of the Animal Bad teeth
follow diseased lungs
In purchasing horse rely upon yom
Judgment, and when you trade, do not
ask a neighbor-every man ought t,
know his own business. If there Is
much talking 20 be done let the other
do it. What you say let it he to the
oint. and stand to it.-Obio Farmer

NJ. Leven, being in charge of one OF
the hospitals of Paris during the siege,
made7a study of scurvy, and concludes
that it is not produced by a want of veg

for its cure, but that it is the result of
bad hygienio conditions in those who
contract it. Cold, dampness, excessive
work depression and insufficient alimen-
t,tion. he thinks are the principal causes
