A CAT ADOPTS A BROOD OF CHICKENS.
"A few weeks since, hen belonging
to DR.. Whiting of Hyde Park hatched
out brood of chickens, and, contrary
to the rule generally adopted by hens
under like circumstances, biddy forsook
her brood, and would have nothing to
do with them. A favorite cat also be-
longing to the Doctor, taking in the sit
uation of affairs, kindly stepped in and
became the protector of the chickens,
and has since watched over and guarded
them with jealous care. If puss sees
them in danger, she exhibits the great
est alarm, and never consents to partake
of food unless the chickens are with her
to enjoy the feast. So attached has she
become to her adopted children that she
will not permit any of the hen tribe to
show them any attention, and at night
is very careful to have them under her
protecting care. Strange as this may
seem, says the Norfolk County Journal,
it is an absolute fact

Poor Stokes! Arrested as an assas-
sin, when he feels conscious that he is
innocent, he held his peace and did not
denounce the outrage pronounced upon
his personal liberty. Spoken against
in the newspapers, his enemies all, he
listened silently and painfully to their
accusations. Condemned to luxurious
confinement in papered, carpeted and
gorgeously furnished cell, he suffered
physically from that unnecessarily
close confinement without murmur
But the proud spirit rebels against be-
ing hbeled on the stage. That is 'pros-
tituting the DRAMA and Mr.. Stokes
cannot brook the insult to the public
and to himself If he is not a martyr
it is not his fault, though from some
indications we have observed in the con-
duct of his counsel we judge that he
does not care to make the parallel be-
tween himself and the early martyrs
complete. But it is very sad that a
high spirited man should be SO persecut-
ed, and we believe that the prisoner
will have all the sympathy he deserves
in his unfortunate and helpless condi-
ton"

According to DR.. Hessel, of Baden,
the medicinal leeches shipped to the
United States from Bremen, Hamburg
and Havre under the name of Swedish
leeches have nothing whatever to do with
that country, none occurring within its
borders They are obtained in Hungary,
Wallachia, Turkey, and Southern Rus
sia. DIR. Hessel, himself a highly es-
teemed and very successful fsh-culturist,
has been lately occupied in raising leech-
es for the market; and by making his
selections with great care he has in stock
a very superior quality that is highly
priced. He succeeded in raising 400,-
900 in period of two and a half years,
and was only deferred from continuing
the business on account of the very low
price that they brought at Wholesale
namely, fifty cents per hundred. He
thinks that the physical condition in the
United States are especially favorable
to the growth and culture of the medici-
nal leech, and that any one entering up
on the business could readily command
the market h.re, independently of for
eign importations.

whose name was withheld till after the
arrest was made. You couldn't get a

If his pigship shows evidences of blight

him it is all right by letting him have a
brief nibble at it. and then resume your
line of march. In this way, the most

BRIDAL BALLAD.

The ring is on my hand,
And the wreath is on my brow;
Satins and jewels grand
Are all at my command,
And l am happy now.
And my lord he loves me well;
But, when first he breathed his vow
| felt my bosom swell
For the words rang as knell,
And the voice seemed his who fell
In the battle down the dell,
And who is happy now.
But he spoke to re-assure me,
And he kissed my pallid brow
While reverie came DER me.
And to the church-yard bore ME,
And / sighed to him before me,
Thinking him dead D'Elormie,
''Oh, am happy now"
And thus the words were spoken,
And this the plighted vow.
And, though my faith be broken,
And, though my heart be broken,
Behold the golden token
That proreS me happy now
Would God l could awakenl
For dream / know not how!
And my soul is sorely shaken
Lest an evil step be taken,-
Lest the dead who is forsaken
May not be happy nowl

blessings and comforts of life we give
thee thanks. Forgive us our sins and
teach us how to be good and happy
At evening devotion the Bible is read
the school reciting alternately verses
in concert. Every voice seems to join
in singing, and all reverently bow the
head during prayer. We witnessed
their retiring-six score of boys at
signal, kneeling each by his own cot and
all uniting in that sweet prayer,
'Now lay me down to sleep,
/ pray the Lord my soul to keep
If should die before wake,
pray the Lord my soul to take.

umes, which the boys have the ready
use of. Several State papers and some

quality and adapted to the minds of boys.
gets thoroughly read in the Vermont
Reform School. Parents who know
what books do their own boys good can
not often find better investment than
this of adding a volume to the Library
of the Reform School. 1t will be well
preserved and well read, and worn out
with careful reading. Who will spare
book or buy one for the School =?
Another noticeable need of the insti-
tuition is pictures Pictures ornament,
beautify and instruct. Pictures for the
school room, pictures for the dormitory.
for the chapel, and for the hospital
Many parent pays out tens of dollars
for wall pictures to please and benefit
one child. How much reason to hope
to do good by hanging ennobling, inspir-
ing paintings and engravings where one
or two hundred boys will daily look and
feel thereby restrained from evil and
encouraged to be good. :?
Among the pleasant things connected
with the school is the annual Christmas
Tree, 1t is a great anniversary with
the boys, and the village of Waterbury
is always largely represented on the oc-
casion. Will not the friends and ac-
quaintances of the boys in different
parts of the State make note of this
and send suitable gifts to be distributed
from the tree? Last Christmas Santa
Claus brought three nice engravings for
the school to be hung in the hospital.
1t is yet altogether too early to esti-
mate the reforming power of the insti-
tuition. For four years there was no
uniform rule as to the term of commit
ment and in this period, Il of the COM
mitments were for terms ranging from
II days to year, and 54 others were
committed for 2 years or less. 1t is
probable that very few of these 125
were very much benefited. The law
was wisely changed at the last session
of the Legislature. and we have reason
to hope that many of the boys rescued
from the street and from places by mis-
nomer called homes, and brought under
the kind, Christian and parental infu-
ence of this institution through the for
native years of habit and character will
come out new and become blessings to
the commonwealth and the world at
large.-Freeman.
