Government Among Animals.

A regularly constituted form of gov
eminent. elementary as it may appear,
exists among very many families of ami
mails and insects. Reptiles are usually
solitary, exhibiting neither affection nor
social feelings. A blind buffalo on
Western prairie has been known to act
as an absolute sovereign over a vast herd,
controlling their movements as seemed
to suit his own views of what was best
for the common good. Horses, too, in
their wild state, wherever found, invari-
ably obey the behests of powerful stall
lion, who parades his forces, forms lines
OF defense, or suddenly gives orders for
Il stampede, as circumstances require.
Dogs left to themselves establish an oil
garchy, whether in Asia, Africa, or any
other continent. The supreme authority
is invested In certain individuals, man
aging prescribed territory, and woe to
those trespassing upon their domain !
On concerted occasions they all act to-
gether like wolves for the accomplish
ment of grand design. Wolves sepa-
rate as soon as they have accomplished
their design, but, unlike dogs, seem not
to recognize particular leader on their
foraging expeditions. Wild geese have
an admirably organized system Of gov
eminent. Migrating feathered races as
sociate IN autumn for common safety in
their annual flights but carniverous
birds, as hawks, eagles, etc., are unsocial
and selfish. Domestic fowls divide into
families, at the head of which is q vigil
liant cock that watches his charge with
argus eyes. Ants, honey bees, and wasps
form regular soyereionties

THE FAMOUS FIGHTING EDITOR OF
PARIs.-An English journal says ::
Those who were at Chiselhurst on the
occasion of the lying in state of the
Emperor Napoleon must have noticed a
very tall, broad-shouldered man, who, in
evening dress, with fur cape over his
shoulders, was increasingly smoking Gig
arettes. This was NJ. Paul de Cassag-
nae, the celebrated fighting editor of the
Pays, who has slain eighteen men by
his small-sword practice in duels, and
who was one of the most vigorous sup
porters, by pen and sword, of the Bona
parte regime. He is now suffering
slightly from rheumatism, but when his
fit is over he has to undergo duel with

tots. also an expert swordsman and

Sows Eating Pigs.

The monthly report on agriculture
gives the following cure
1T is well known thet sows not I'M
frequently attack and destroy their
young or, if prevented rom this, will
not let down their milk, so that the
young pigs necessarily die from want of
nourishment. When this condition of
things is not caused by diseased con-
dition of the uterus, it is said that the
sow can be brought to terms by pouring
a mixture of ten to twenty grains Of
spirits of camphor with one to three of
tincture of opium into the ear. The SOW
will Immediately lie down on the side of
the ear to wich the application was made,
and remain quiet in this possession for
several hours without interfering with
her pigs and on recovery from the
stupor will have lost her irritabilitv in
regard to them. The experiment has
been tried in Germany hundreds of times,
according to one of the agricultural jour
mails, without any injurious effects. It
Is also said that the eating of pigs by the
parent SOW can be readily prevented by
rubbing them all over with brandy, and
making the same application about the
nose Of the sow herself"

FARM AND HOUSEHOLD,
How to Hang Gates.

A correspondent of the Cincinnati
Gazette writes In the spring of 1867,
[ hung four large gates. The posts were
six by eight inches square. and were
put in the ground two and one half feet.
The post that L hung the gate to was
put down first and the gate then hung.
[ then set the other post so as to let the
gate shut inside the post, against two
pins driven in the post, one foot from
the top and bottom OF the gate. Then I
put one inch pin through the head OF
the gate, putting the pin through the
gate the same way the gate shuts, and
extending through four inches, with the
point OF the pin elevated one inch. This
pm was thus arranged so as to slip over
the top pin in the post, with sufficient
bearing to take out the spring of the gate.
In this way, when shut, the gate is sup
ported by both posts. The gate is
made of lumber, bars one inch thick,
four or five inches wide, and eleven feet
long. I take for two heel pieces lumber
one inch thick, four inches wide, and
four feet ten inches long. I also take
two pieces two inches wide for the head
of the gate, that are set back three feet
from the head of the gate. 1 then put
brace on both sides, running from the
top of the center upright stats to the
bottom of the heel pieces, all being
firmly bolted together The latch or
bolt (three and one half feet long) is
placed on the top of the third or fourth
bar. A mortise is cut in the post for the
latch or bolt to slide in The above four
gates were hung in the spring of 81.
They stand as firm to-day as they did the

The European LarcI,.

ant, to beautify the farm by the proper
arrangement of the groves, deserves at
tention. The European larch is one of
the best trees for these purposes, being
of rapid growth, symmetrical in form,
resembling an evergreen in summer. The
wood is both durable and strong. It
pays best to buy two-year old plants di-
rect from some reliable nurseryman,
rather than attempt to grow them from
the seed. The price is usually ten to
fifteen dollars per thousand. The trees

Buy n Hay Knife.

A correspondent of the Ohio Farmer
writes 4: There are reasons why every
farmer should have good hay knife and
use it too. If farmers have large bodies
OF hay to feed, either in the barn, or in
stacks, by cutting, a much less surface
Is exposed to the action of cold wind
and storm causing it to lose much of its
natural richness and nutritious qualities)
than if fed from the surface of the whole
mass daily. Experience has taught me
that NOV OF hay containing fifteen tons
of hay, fed to fifteen or twenty head OF
cattle, If cut into three of four equal
parts, will go as far and furnish as much
nutritive matter as sixteen tons not cut
at all-which this year would pay SO for
cutting. Again, there is more or less
hay at the bottom of every NOV, or stack,
somewhat damaged. By cutting, but
small quantity of this damaged hay has
to be fed at any one time brine this,
and cattle viii eat one or two feeds with
equal relish to that of better quality.

Eusking Corn.

An Illinois correspondent of the New
York Tribune writes AS corn is our
chief crop, and the harvesting of it a
great job, propose that each Of us send
III what we know about husking, and by
this means we can be mutually helpful.
Even one item of information may help
us to increase our days work by two or
three bushels for one hand it does not
amount to much, but for one county, in
the aggregate, it would amount to a
large sum. Here IS my way: Fit your
wagon-box to hold 80 bushels, then put
at least foot and q half hang board on
the opposite side; tie the horse next to
you to the other ones hame, to keep him
from eating then take two rows, catch
the ears with the thumb toward the point,
strip both sides nearly at once, and give
it a wrench with your right hand at the
same time. In good corn good hand
will in this way crib 80 bushels in a day.
