SEE no THE CLOVER.

Mr.. Curtis, before the Farmers Club,
says: "Hogs can be wintered on clover
hay cut green, if it is steamed TO a pulp,
without any meal or bran being added.n
Cattle reducing this TO pulp by masti-
cation, get similar effect. We know lead
ing farmers who keep their diaries during
the winter on clover hay aloLe, or clover
and cornstalks. This till the cows are
turned to grass, and they go into pasture
strong and in good flesh, giving large yield
OF milk at the same time. This being a
fact, it is demonstrated yearly, why are we
feeding grain? Simply because we neglect
or disregard early cutting, fearing we
cannot cure our hay in this early or
green stage. 1t is more an excuse than
anything else. Others do it, cut early, and
cure fair to well. Have the hay cap, and
there is no danger of spelling. Use the
tedder freely, which will expedite the dry
ing. By cutting the first crop Glover
early, when just in blossom, the second
crop may be cut, and in good time, leaving
time enough for an after-growth for protec-
ton.
7 Here are two crops; and as clover can be
made to yield well with comparatively little
expense, we need not call attention to the
benefit derived in this way. Plaster now,
a bushel to the acre, and determine before
hand that you will make the test,and make
it. II not on large scale, at least on a
small. Have the hay caps ready; there is
time for that new. What we need is test
ing, and testing fairly. If the best farmers
are reaping an advantage here, why may
not we all have it? Clover is the farmers
plant Of profit. Those engaging earliest in
it, fully, will get the most of the benefit

ALEXANDRIA, EGYPT.
More About Consul General Buffers
Fight.
Special to the Cincinnati Fnrnirer

| special 10 the cincinnati Enquirer.
NEW YORK, Aug. 5.-The Suns Alex.
andria egypt correspondent describes the
unprovoked assault of Consul General But
| Ter upon the American officers in the Khe-
dives service. Because the officer chose
not to have association with Butler the
testy Consul General was wroth, Gen.
Stone being the especial object of
his hate. Soon thereafter a printed
paper, shamefully abusive on Gen.
Stone, was extensively circulated among
Americans and others, and some copies of
it were posted in conspicuous places in
Alexandria by Wadley, the recently In
stalled clerk of the Consul General. Some
of the American officers took the matter up
and INDUCED in the freest denunciations of
Wadley's paper, though retaining from
calling him to account, because OF the be-
lief that in what he had done he had merely
acted as Buffers hireling. This circum-
stance FASTENED the collision.
Gems. Reynolds and Loring and Mai
Campbell had been in company at the Ho-
tel de Europe, and were about leaving
when they encountered Butler, who was
accompanied by Wadley and Stralogo. The
officers gave the customary formal saluta-
tions to the Consul-General, and were
about passing, when Butler stopped Mai.
Campbell, telling him he had something to
say to him, and forthwith began pushing
up his coat sleeves and putting him
self in a fighting position. The Ma
jor was fully aware of the character of his
assailant, and, quickly perceiving his inten-
tons, did not wait for further proof, but
"sailed in" with his cane, with which he
belabored Butler. At this Butler shouted
Justify for help, and turning to Wadley babe
him 60 in and kill him. Wadley, who was
standing by, did not wait a second COM
maEd, but, whipping out a pistol, began
firing at the Major. After the underling
had fired three shots, the Major
drew his pistol in selk-defense, and
snapped it, some say, al Butler, and
others say at Wadley, but it is agreed on
all hands that at the show of vigorous de-
Tense both Butler and Wadley took to their
heels. When several PAGES away, Valley
rallied, and turning emptied bis revolver in
the direction Of Maj. Campbell. Gen.
Reynolds, who was standing close by Maj.
Campbell, who had been wounded in the
first fusilade, drew his pisto! and fired two
shots at Wadley. This terminated the fra
cas-. A survey of the field showed one
American and several outsiders wounded.
Maj. Campbell received bullet in the left
leg just below the knee.

what We Need when Debi,itoted

Appetite and digestion languish at this season
At the very time when the body most needs rem
ovation and support, the stomach, its commissa-
riat department, is apt to prove delinquent. I'm
der such circumstances the necessity for a
wholesome stimulant, tonic and corrective is
self-evident, and consequently the demand for
that peerless combination of the three required
elements, HOstetter's Stomach Bitters, is never
more urgent than at midsummer.
1t is true that few medical bigots-fossls
'leftover" from the dark ages-recommend vio-
lent purgation and water Cruel as cure for in
digestion and its accompanying ills; but they
make few proselytes. The majority of the com
munity are sane, and the sane people are aware
that pure and powerful vegetable tonic with
Alternative properties, like Hostetter's Bitters is
the only for dyspepsia, biliousness, 'consti-
patton, nervousness and the consequential dam
ages" they infict.
The human intellect, unless hopelessy dis
eased or egregriousy humbugged, declines to
astonish the weakened human stomach with
fierce cathartics that, rushing like an avalanc he
through the .intestines, threaten to take the
inner membrane with them. To use signiii-
cant catch-phrase the knock-doWn-and-drag-
out methods OF treatment are ''played out"
1t is clearly understood that a indicate stim-
ulant is essen ial to the renovation of an ex-
hausted frame and that you cannot strengthen
man or woman by dosing them with Frustrating
preparations. This is era of common sense 7
and common sense approves of HOstetter's Biz
tiers as the best article eXtant for inYorating reg
ulating and purifying the system and defending
it against poison in the air we brea he, or the
water we drink aug6 deodlw&Wlt 3dp

FEEDING HOGS.

The quantity of pork is greatly influenced
by the feed. The dairy makes poor pork
itabby and sott-pork that will fry away
much, and what is left be worth little.
This is the case whether milk or whey is
fed. But it is remuuerative to make this
pork; it is therefore made. If you want
pork for your own use, solid, bearing the
heat, and sweet morsel when cooked,
you must feed the grains.
Old corn makes, perhaps, as good pork as
anything. Peas are excellent, and nav
well. We used formerly TO fat with peas
with good results; but mixture of these
with the grains is good. Soak, and then
feed, and give cold water to drink.
Cold water also TO cool the heated body
Of the animal in hot weather, is necessary,
that is, access to water-better if showered
or dripping copiOusly, as We have a case in
town where race Of mill is made to do
this, keeping the hogs and pen clean and
cool. There is evident comfort and pros
perity in this pen. There is little or no
stencil, which affects pork, making your
finest Berkshire taste strong. Plenty of
litter and absOrbents are wanted; any dry
material will do, partially dry muck, or the
cooling sawdust, or dust from the road.
When will our farmers avail themselves of
this, and thus increase largely the manure
piles, abate nuisance (in the escaping eff
fuvium) and improve the quality of their
pork? -.,.
In reply to the statement that ''the dairy
makes poor pork" another writer, with
whom we entirely agree, says:
The above statement is too strong in
reference to the quality of pork from the
dairy. The refuse of butter dairy, skim
med milk, etc, makes very sweet pork; but,
being in liquid and soluble state, this food
is SO easily digested and absorbed by the
system, and the hogs grow so fast upon full
feed of it, that the pork is soft. But this de-
feet is remedied by feeding few weeks
previous to killing, upon corn or other solid
food. The dairy is a great resource for
pork-making, and needs only to be properly
managed to produce the best quality.-Uti-

CORN EOnnER

t. L. Hart, in the Germantown Tele-
graph, advises decidedly to SOW in drills,
as it admits the sun more readily to shine
upon it, and much less seed will answer;
from his experience, he would prefer pay
ing 81 a bushel for sweet corn rather than
81 for any other kind, and would rather
have enc bushel of Button than two of
Western corn, because the sweet corn and
the Dutton will make twice as many stalks
as the Western per bushel, and nearly twice
as much milk, and of the best quality. In
deed, lie is Of the opinion that 10 hay will
make as much or as good milk as sweet
corn, or be relished as much by our milk
ing stock. For winter use SOW early, so
that it may be.ready to harvest early, or as
soon as haying is over, in which case /
will be likely to be well cured before the
fall rains come on. -

An Immense Aniount of Money I'm
eartssed.


From the Indianapolis Sentinel, Aup. 6.
The cases are not unfrequent where some
rich old miser hides his money in a Sc
cluded place, dies and leaves his wealth
still secret, aud in long years afterwards
it is found when removing debris where il
has been safely slowed away for ages, NAV
be. A similar case occurred near our city.
though it is not known that a miser had
anything to do with it.
at the old camp grounds, where the pris
oners were kept during the war, and which
is now known as the State Fair Grounds.
there runs ditch along the southess side.
which is covered in several places by bridges,
Men have been at work on the grounds late
ly, and among other things were repair
ing these bridges. On Saturday last as they
were removing one of the abutment logs,
Capt. Orwell found under the log an old
fashioned leathern pocket-book containing
an immense roll of money in bank bills.
The surprise OF the men can be imagined.
They commenced to grasp for it, and in their
eagerness the money was pulled in pieces.
1t had laid so long it would not bear ham
ding. The money was In old State Bank
bills, and no real estimate can be made as
to the amount. 1t is thought, however,
that there was 100000. The pocket book
was yet in condition to be handled, but
the bills were too far gone to be able to
count them accurately. They might
have been in Better condition il they had
not been seized SO eagerly by the men
when they found it to be money. Of
course nothing is known as TO how it came
there, but the supposition is that it was Sc.
GREETED there by some Rebel prisoner during
the war. If this is the case, the money
must have lain there Tor the last eight or
ten years. This seems to be the only
plausible reason that can be given of the
mystery. 1t probably belonged to some
Southern soldier, who concealed it for safe
ty, and afterwards died in the prison. The
workmen are said to have been very en-
thusiastic in their digging after that, and
every log they rolled over they expected to
find hidden treasures; but it is not often
that lightning strikes the same spot twice.

HOW TO BUILD AN IOE-HoUsE

=" - n - - - III nv ANh~ nv OSA@s
A correspondent furnishes the Country
Gentleman description of an ice-house
that has been found by ample experience,
to keep ice etIectually as follows:
"Dig pit, either circular or square, Is
feet wide at top, 16 feet deep, and II feet
wide at the bottom. Then dig a square
hole in the bottom of the pit, by feet,
and % feet deep, over which lay some
chestnut rails. Line sides of the large pit
with pinch chestnut or white oak boards.
Build small house over the pit, the floor
of which must be twelve to eighteen inch
es above the top Of the pit. Between the
floor and the ground nail strips of railing in
the shape of lattice work, SO as to afford
free ventilation all around. Have door
in front of the house, and common cel-
lar door in the side. Have also trap door
in the floor of the house, for convenience
in filling,
use the cellar door in the side for COM
mencing the operation of slowing away the
ice, and complete it by throwing in through
the trap-door. My plan generally is to break
up the ice as It is threwn in. Cover with
straw or dry leaves" r-..fs.-- -..--.t.
