EDITORS CHRONICLE: last year adver-
tised my sheep in your widely circulated
paper and intended to do so this time,
but the dogs have saved me the trouble,
having had ten killed and four more badly
manned, one of which I fear will die. The
dead ones include the two imported bucks,
Litton and Prodigal, for which was offer.
ed by Hough & Church at the last Fair,
500 each. Prodigal cost me 500 in Eng
land before paid cent of freight upon
him. The others are two yearling ewes by
PrOdigal, for which would not have ta-
ken less than $40 each, three buck lambs
by Bosworth, $50 each, two eve lambs
worth $50 each and one yearling sheep
worth $l5. The yearling buck, which IS
still living, is splendid sheep by Prodigal
but which fear will die, is worth from
S35 to $40. The owner of the dogs that
killed them says he is very sorry,
which is all the compensation I have been
oferedyet. Great encouragement, truly, to
go to the expense of introducing fine stock
into the country. Yours truly, ugss.s

The Health of the City.

There has not been death from any thing

Report Of the Modec Campaigns.

NEW YORK, June 21.-Meacham's re-
port of the MOdoc fighting during the war
says the Modocs killed about three soldiers
for every warrior in their force, at the
time not numbering more than siXty-five,
and that during the first three days fight
this band not only held out against eight
hundred troops armed with every appli-
ance of modern warfare, but kept passage
open for retreat, which even the Warm
Springs could not close Meacham's idea
of the best policy for the future is, that all
tribal lines te abolished that the Indians
be made amenable to thelaws and be placed
on the same footing with other murderers.

A Revolutionary Reminiscence.

Just after the war broke out, the stew
ard of the Manor of Livingston had been
gained over to the royal cause. and had
carried most of the tenants in that direc-
ton. They had secretly taken the oath
OF allegiance to King George, and had en-
gagged to join the British standard in arms
as soon as a royal force should appear to
protect them. As reward, they were
promised the fee-simple Of their lands.
Information of this intrigue and treach-
cry was given to the board of war, of
which Mr.. Morris was a member. The
steward was apprehended, his crime
proved, and he was condemned to death.
Upon the question of his execution, it
was proposed that it should Immediately
take place to prevent escape or rescue.
Mr.. Morris dissuaded this course. "Fit
out sloop here at Albany" he. recon-
mended, take the man down in 1t 20 the
Manor Of Livingston, call out the tenants,
and hang him In their presence This
was done. The next week q daft from

Law OF Probability In Mental Exertion.

If college were to announce in its
prospectus that 1t would annually insure
to its patrons such and such percentage
Of first honor men, such and such of sec
ond, and so on mot to speak of the dun
ces), perhaps most persons would receive
the assurance with smile of incredulity.
And yet no problem in simple arithmetic
is easier to work out than this of deter
mining In advance the number of those
among say hundred students who will
occupy the various grades of standing.
Atleast, one would so conclude after read
ing Professor Heinrich's essay on the
"Law of Probability as Applied to the
Determination of Mental Exertion," read
at the last meeting of the American Asso-
citation. Adopting Quetelet's method of
calculating probabilities, the author, be-
fore the annual examination, made an es-
innate Of the percentage of the pupils In
the University of Iowa who should stand
In the various grades of proficiency. The
data for calculation came, not from any
knowledge of the students In question,
but rom the phenomena oil averages as OBJ
served in numberless cases, and in various
fields; and 1t will be seen that the results
of the calculation and those of the actual
examination agreed very closely. In the
following table the first column gives the
standing, the number 100 marking the
highest grade attainable I; the second col
umn gives the percentage of students
reaching the varions grades, as shown
from the examination, and the third gives
the same as calculated beforehand:
