HOW DRINKING CAUSES APoPLxY.

1t is the essential nature of all
wines and spirits to send an increas.
ed amount of blood to the brain.
The first effect of taking a glass of
wine or stronger form of alcohol, is
to send the blood there faster than
common, hence the circulation that
gives the red face. 1t increases the
activity of the brain, and it works
faster, and SO does the tongue. But
the blood goes to the brain fas-
ter, and no special harm results. But
supposing a man keeps on drinking,
the blood is sent to the brain so fast,
and in such large quantities; that in
order to make room for it the arteries
have to enlarge themselves they
increase In size, and in so doing they
press against the more yielding and
hacoid veins, which carry. the blood
out of the brains and thus diminish
their size. and their pores, the re-
suit being that the blood is not only
carried to the brain faster than is
natural or healthful, but it is pre-
vented from leaving as fast as usual,
hence double set of causes of death
are in operation. A man may drink
enough brandy or other spirits in a
few hours, or even minutes, to bring
on fatal attack of apoplexy.

FEEDING BEES.

d. L. Adair, well-known apiarisn
OF Kentucky, says five pounds Of
sugar fed to colony of bees in
March and April will secure fifty
pounds of honey in June. There are
more bees lost by starvation in early
Spring than by any other causes in
the Winter. As soon as the first
food is carried into the hive in the
Spring, the queen begins to lay her
eggs and an unfavorable change in
the weather sendangers the life of
whole colony. They should be fed
to prevent this, and also to stimulate
the queen as much as possible, 50
they may be strong when honey be-
comes plentiful enough to gathers
surplus.
The overies of the queen bee con.
tains the germs of about halt mil.
lion OF eggs, and when they are e1.
hausted the queen dies. A prolific
queen will lay them ali in two years
while others are five or six years in
accomplishing it. The latter are un-
profitable and should be DESTROYED
"A queen that is stimulated to lay 10
her utmost capacity during the first
months OF her laying, will be prolific
all her life, while one that is so treat
ed that she lays little or none during
that time, will likely be unprolifc as
as long as she lives and Mill 1.-Two a

EGGS FOR BREEDING.

in selecting eggs for Matching, all
monstrosities should be avoided, as
they will not hatch. The same hen
will sometimes lay very large egg,
and at another time very small one
They will serve well to eat, but not
for Matching. What is wanted is
eggs of the average size and ap-
pearance peculiar to the variety from
which you breed-nothing else.
Very long, very short, or very rough
eggs should always be avoided.
Time will be saved, too, by not try
ing to select eggs which will bring
either cocks or hens, as the art OF
telling the sex Of an egg by its shape
or color has not yet been discovered.
This advice of course is for the
Goerage breeder-the fanciers and
amateurs may experiment as much as
they please, as they can better afford
it, Country Gentleman.

A NATIONAL DISGRACE.

The Louisiana crime grows in enor
nifty. 1t was bad enough at first
But later reports add to what was
most terrible, and weaken the feeble
attempt at justification. The negroes
were not only shot down, one by
one, as they fed from the burning
courthouse, but their bodies were
mutilated afterwards /; and thirty
who surrendered, were coolly taken
to the river, shot in pairs, and their
bodies pitched over the banki
This was the work of white men,
citizens of Louisiana, and claiming to
be a portion of the American people.
They are Democrats in politics, and
pretend to have accepted the aboli-
tion of slavery, and the equality of
the black man. But here was an ex-
ibition of devilish hate and barbarian
ferocity worthy only of Thugs and
Malavs, and of a spirit of caste and
class that would shame the Hindoos.
tits commended that these white
Democrats were entitled to the of
fees of Grant Parish. But what ex-
cuse is that for trying to enforce the
claim by war of determination
The method adopted does not tend
to support the claim. Nor do the
probabilities point in their favor.
The black population in the parish
largely exceed the white, and it is
fair to presume that they voted main
ly together. This was q portion of
the State where the Warmoth Lib.
eral-Democrats perpetrated enor-
nous frauds last fall, not only by the
false claim of majorities, but of ma
.ierities more than double the entire
vote. At the least, great Irregular
ties were known to have occurred,
and the actual state of the ballot was
in doubt. These were the circum-
stances under which an armed force
was raised, largely composed of out
siders, to conquer the black people
of Grant Parish, and compel them
to accept Democratic officials. And
when the victory was won, the white
savages who achieve it celebrate
their victory by offering hundred
black men as sacrifice on the altar
of their political Moloch
This revolving Grim disgraces the
nation. TWAS Intended to terrify
the blacks, but il should result in ter
rifying the whiteE who committed it.
No lenity should be shown them.
If there is any power, State or ma
tional, to bring them to justice, they
should be made to feel it, to the bit
ter end.

THE swARmINc OF Bees.


Mr.. A. f. Moon, in his autobie.
graphy, notices the instinct of bees,
and their determination to leave the
hive after swarming. He says:
"There are times when they seem
determined to forsake their hives
after being hived, and go to tho
woods. When they are SO inclined
it is best to give them frame of
brood from some other hive then
they are not apt to leave, and will
not once in thousand times, and it
is much better plan than to clip
their wings, as after their wings are
clipped they have to be watched at
swarming time or you will lose your
queen. There are several causes
why bees leave their hive, the great
est of them all is that if they are
hived, and large swarm, and the
hive an extraordinary one, there is
SO much heat that they cannot stay
in and work their wax, and they are
Obliged to leave. Many as soon as
their bees are in the hive, set it down
where no air can strike it. The hive
should be well ventilated, and let
the bees pass in and out freely, and
the trouble is over.
There are few instances where
bees look up home before swarm
ing, but they are rare. When a
swarm has left the parent hive and
are clustered on tree or elsewhere.
they no doubt send out explorers to
find home in some hollow tree
The swarm is very apt to STAY on
the same tree where they first light
ed, if it is agood, cool, shady place,
if not they soon leave for another
tree, perhaps at distance. They fiy
until they become weary, when they
alight. Ifthey don't succeed in find
ing home, they again take flight
for the West or westerly direction,
as is their custom. They have been
known to repeat their flight several
times before making final location;
this is the way they have extended
to the far West. Bees should not be
allowed to hang On the tree any
length of time. Hive them at once,
and place them where you wish them
to stand for the season. IF you wish
them to stay, see that they have
plenty of air, or they will be apt, in
an unexpected time to you, to take
up their line of march toward the
West. Is it at all surprising to see the
great number that have spread over
the far West, when we take into con.
sideration the vast numbers that have
been multiplying for years ? They
left the moth worm behind. Their
principal enemy was the red man
and the wild beasts of the forest
They went in advance of civilization

The Corning U,aioa says on last
Thursday morning Mr.. Jonas Cupp,
residing three miles north of Quincy,
had hitched up his team of horses
and was loading his wagon near his
barn, when from some unknown
cause they became frightened and
attempted to run away. Mr.. G.
sprang tc catch their bits, when the
hook of the single-tree caught in the
leg of his left boot. In which posi-
ton he was borne along by the
excited team, his right leg falling
back was caught by the wheel of the
wagon, completely blocking the
same, and terribly mangling his leg,
breaking the bones of his ankle into
powder and producing such other in-
juriss. that it had to be ampntated.
He was also dashed against board
fence-severaf pieces of boards en-
tering his abdomen, terribly lacerat-
ing his bowels. leaving an incision
nine inches in length. He will pro.
badly die.

WILD HORSES IN MARYLAND.-The
Baltimore american tells us that there
is colony of wild horses of the pony
variety in the salt marshes of Chinco-
league, an island within ten miles of
the eastern coast of Maryland. These
animals, it seems, have a pedigree
which makes up in age what it may lack
in other qualities for tradition ascribes
their origin to pair of ponies ii--port-
ed from England, by Virginian of the
F. +. V. sort, some two hundred years
ago, but which left a wreck in disgust
and were washed ashore off Assateague
Beach. From these two ponies have
descended the wild horses now careering
over the sand-hills in that locality.
Until within the present century these
ponies were not considered worth
claiming or catching, and they were al
lowed to Craze and race at their own
sweet will. But as the pasture grounds
passed into the ownership of class of
herdsmen, it became the fashion to
lasso the little wild horses and brand
them with marks of ownership.
At present the island is said to con-
tain about five hundred of these dimin-
utive horses, who travel in herds and
bear the brands of various owners.
Some thirty persons live on the island
and claim to own all this wild stock in
lots or herds of from ten to one hun
dred head.

CHEAP Ice HoUsEs.-At the meeting
of the Elmira Farmers Club, some time
since, w. A. Armstrong said that a
cheap ice house could be made out of a
simple well-roofed enclosure, without
hollow walls or pits, or any costly ap-
paratus. He leaves six inches of space
next the sides all round, into which he
rams clean sawdust closely, and covers
the ice when packed with foot of the
dust. The ice is cut into large blocks
and made to fit at the joints as closely
as convenient, but where the edges are
jagged he fills in with pounded ice or
sawdust-the latter being the cheapest
Drainage is important, but if the house
stands on porous soil, or is so elevated
that the water will run off readily, it an
swers every purpose He had kept ice
houses several years in such a building,
nine feet square and the same in height,
the sides being only Of inch boards
When ice is taken out, be careful to
keep all cavities covered with sawdust,
or it will waste away rapidly. In an
swer to question as to the cost of a
house IA feet square, he said that $50
would pay for it and the sawdust and
built of cheap lumber it might cost only
S25. In packing, spent tan or cut
straw would answer nearly as well as
sawdust.
