A HoRRIBLE DEATH "A Mr.. GRIER,
of Missouri, called away on business, lefs q
little son about twelve years Of age to take
care Of the horses. The little boy in the
afternoon started with one of the horses to
water. He got on the horses back, aud
ran his hand through loophole in the hall
ter strap The horse became frightened at
some wagons that were passing and threw
the boy, the loop frightened 90 his wrist,
tie rattle Of tin bucket which the boy
had swung 90 hi' arm frightened the ami
NAL, and away he dashed at full speed IL
was most frightfnl scene. The elpless
Child would be dashed along on the ground
for few PAGES, then again thrown into The
air as high as The horses back. A fearful
swing threw him against The fence corner,
the halter-strap broke, and left tho body
Of the little boy lying in A horribly man
gled mass. BY the time be was reached
by those who Witnessed the tragedy be
was dead.
A more horrible death can scarcely be
conceived. Think of a mere child crushed
and maogled whi'o literally la.bed 10 the
back OF a runaway horse. | is ne horrible
az lbe thought Of Mazeppa tied to the wild
horse of Tarlary, and doomed to a terri
bic death.

TRAINING HEITERs TO MIX. Cows, writes n
correspondent, usually become addicted to kick
ing when hefers, from being uailked by abusive
mixers. ] have never seen an old COW become
a kicker unless abused. Instead OF cows being
averse to being MIXED when giving a large
quantity, have ever found IL the reverse
When pasturage is good and cows come home At
night with udders disteaded with milk, they
seem grateful 20 have il removed. Milking
better for the first time requires patience, for
they will almost invariably kick. In such
case put broad strap around her body, just In
front Of the udder, and buckle IL up moderately
tight for she may kick around little at fret,
take your pail, sit down and go to milking, fo-
she is as helpless as n kitten. Do not attempt
to use rope instead Of strap for II will not
answer. This is r. much better method than ty-
ing the legs etc, as il does not hurt the animal
in the least A few applications Of the strap,
with plenty Of patience and kindness, will cure
the most obstinate case.

Josrru HAAS PLAS.-1y plan Of improved
agriculture does not necessarily imply tho pro-
duction of my more grain of any kind that wo
sell than we raise at present. would simply
raise il on fewer sores. and thus lessen the ex.
pense for seed, cultivation, harvesting, &c. I
would raise 30 bushels of wheat per acre every
third year, instead Of 10 bushels every year. II
we summer fallowed md plowed under clover In
order 70 produce the 30 bushels OF wheat once
in three years instead Of ten bushels every year,
no more produce OF any kind would be raised.
But nv plan does not contemplate such result
On my own farm seldom summer fsllow, aud
never pillow under clover. I think can enrich
the farm nearly as much by feeding the clover
to animals and returning the manure 20 tho
land. The animals do not take out more than
FROM FIVE TO ten per cent. OF the most valuable
elements of plant-food from the clover And so
my plan, while il produces as much and no more
grain to sell. adds greatly to the fertility of the
land. and gives an Increased production OF beef,
mutton, wool, butter, cheese, and pork.

E:rrrxs, or CRY Cnolns.-Th

EXPENss or CIrr CHoIRs The Now York Ere
nmg 20" publishes some facts in regard TO our
city choirs, which the lovers of Congregational
music might store Wp ms arguments in favor Of
their views Of praise worship. 1t ssyS:
"MCre money is spent 10 Now York on
choirs than probably in any city of the
universe, not even excepting London or
Paris. The tariff of salaries has been
greatly enhanced Of late. a few years ago
one thousand dollars was considered very
large stipeud for an org4nist, while five 10
eight hundred dollars easily satisied the
most exactiDg soprano. Now, however,
there are a dozen or more organists who
receive from twenty-five hundred to three
thousand dollars a year, and the average
soprano thinks herself bat poorly remupe-
rated with thousand dollsrs. Que lady
Of eminence in the musical profession re.
Gently declined The offer Of FIVE THOUSAND
dollar salary from one NJ our principal
churches Two thousand dollars arc paid
ia several instances. Tenors who last year
sang for a thousand dollars, this year de-
naDd and receive fifteen hundred. Bases
aud altos, Of course, share 10 the general
rice of musical values. Musical taste las
advanced III this city Il late, so that con-
gfegations are now reluctant to listen 10
music which would have amply sati,fisd
them few years ago. They also seem TO
be wiling to pay Tor higher class Of per.
f'r.ners and performances, and they fod
their returns in crowded pews. The, per.
haps, u plsciog the subject on a CONNER
cisI rather than religious basis, bu, fact,
are faofs and cannot be overlooked. Che.
rus cboirs With frst-class solo singer are
nov preferred to all others. Congrega-
iop'l music is an aspiration rather than a
realization"

A SCENE IN A PARIS CEMETERY. Paris
correspondent writing of the observance OF the
'Day of the Dead" Fete des Morts,) says !:
"Tbe most affecting scene which We Witnessed
was at Montmartre. Having visited the prin
cipal graves We were about leaving the cemete-
~ when our attention was attracted by very
beautiful girl of sad, mournful countenancec
She was dressed entirely in the deepest OF
mourning, and in her hand held an exquisite
wreath Of black pearl beads, woven into toWers.
Being interested by her entire bearing We fol
lowed and soon entered a narrow path Leading
20 secluded part Of the grounds. She hnally
halted beside 40 old cypress, and kneellng,
cleared the leaves from of stone, which much
defaced, lay embedded in the earth, and with
sob buried her head 10 prayer. At eogth r's-
ing she drew her veil around her, and having
placed the crown upon the cypress, was ABOUT
to leave the spot when suddenly, with cry OF
surprise, she fell fainting upon the mound. Hhe
was soon surrounded and on recovering her
seuses told that in the grave before her ten
years ago she had placed her mother, and then
left for America, returning to Paris but the
night previous, and visited the cemetery to pay
her tribute TO the memory of the dead, and had
found marked upon the time stained stone dI tne
name of man, Frederick Henri Pondu. The
sad fact was explained. According to the GUS
tom, which she had forgotten, the body, after
FIVE years, had been exhumed to make room
for some one else, and the ashes OF the dead
mother had been consigned to the fosse co. com
muue. Silently, although pale and trembling
she took the wreath, and vending her way to
the common grave, there laid her oferlng.
