ceeded to disturb the harmony of the house

proprietors of that establishment to request
her aud her friends to vacate the premises at
once, and to stand not upon the order OF their
departure. This request was complied with by
Mr.. William Bell and Mrs Lilly Homes, but,
though urged in emphatic terms, was unheed

which had begun to be served. Her appetite
being thus stimulated, size swore, like the bold
Scotchman of yore, that rocks might by from
their frm base, yet she would OF that dinner

might 90, but she would hold on to the door
knob for ever, till it thuudered, or till that
dinner. she had eaten. But, oh! ever thus.

holding the County Court, announced, yester-
day, that he would direct no more regular venl-
res to be issued under the provisions of the
Code for juries in criminal cases in the courts

juries to be empanuelled from bystanders- per

The Judge holds that the acts of 1878 1, which
couters discretionary power upon the court as
to the mauuer OF empannelling juries, repeats
all former laws upon the subject, aud was iu
tended to introduce new system in respect to
county courts

A recent letter from Sargent, Kan
to the Topeka Commonwealth, con.
tains the following: Large nun
bsrs Of wild horses abound on the
rivers. They are OF all e.zas and
colors, ard are the widest OF all
Wild animals. They usually roam in
bands from six TO twenty, and Will

horses, as well as mnlrs, which have
strayed away from their owners,
have taken up with the wild ones
After running with them for while
they become as Wild as their untam
ed companions. Various methods
have been adopted TO catch them
but have generally provel irnitlcss.

Clean Stables.

The Canada Farmer says Clean
lincss is as necessary 10 the health
and comfort of the inferior creation,
as il is to the health and comfort Of
man himself. Hence all stables
where animals are housed. should,
be kept scrupulousiy clean, not only
by the removal OF droprings daily,
but by the use Of absorbeuts and dc
odorizers, such as dry swamp muck,
gypsum, sawdast, and chaff. The
strong s,acli prevailing many stables
is an unfailing index OF neglect
How can animals enjoy sound health
II condemned 20 breath foul air p
Besides tbs consideration, there is
the important one Of cconmizing and
preserving every ferlilizing material,
whether solid, liquid, or gaseous, for
future application 10 thcsland. These
substances are too precious to waste
any Of them. The escape Of odor i

The New Orleans Piccynae, which
is ultra Southern in its political tone,
thus sums up the political situation
When We STE tho language OF the
bred Scott decision yindicated by q
leading Republican journal, and the
bust Of Chief Justice fancy clevat
cd in tho Supreme Court room
when we see repeal OF the vote OF
the Massachusetts, Legislature cen
suring Mr.. Sumner for his attempt
TO blot oat the names OF civil bat
ties; when We see a President who
supported Mr.. Douglas, nominating
for Chief Justice TWO lawyers who
supported Judge fancy, and when
we see these transactions receiving
the support OF large portion OF the
dominant party, we cannot fail to be
impressed with conviction that
there is at last a luIl in the political
storm, and that the rights, daties,
obligation and capabilities OF both
the white n,on and the black man
will be hereafter weighed in the bal
ance Of Truth anl Justice, rather
than that OF partisan passion and ex.
pediency.

To Prevent Freezing.

The editor Of the working Farmer
has been experimenting on this sub
iect and has found a way to modify
the evil. He says: When | 90 TO
the barn at nine o'clock in the eve
ming, there is generally quite crust
al ice in the trough. Through this
break at one end Of the trough q
small hole, and dip out three or tour
quarts Of water. This leaves an
open space between the ice and the
top oil the water, AMI the wlal pro
cess OF freezing has to be repeated.
In the morning there will be two
coates OF ice, both quite thin, and i.
is not half the work to get them ont
that it is to cut oul what will be pro
luced II left undistu, bed 1t may
be worth while tor other farmers to
try this method. II costs but little
TO do II, and with me il saves great
deal Of work.
