Mr.. COoIey's Hat.

last Sunday, be placed his new high
hat just outside the pew in the alsIe.
Presently Mrs. Pltmau entered, and as
she proceeded up the aisle, her abound
ing skirts scooped Scooley's hat and
rolled it up nearly to the pulpit. Cooley
pursued his hst with feelings OF indig-
nation, and when Mrs. Pitman took
her seat, he walked back brushing his
hat with mis- sleeve. A few moments
more Mrs. Hopkins came into church,
and al Cooley had again placed his hat

UaRf0l Hints.

man, thus recspitnlates come Of the
valuable suggestions she has had the
good sense to learn from her servant
girls. She says: The other day Mary

before; il lie so uice. removes every bit
OF starch or anything else and makes

Ooe girl taught me that old corsets
make the best stove cloths. Just one
half at Q time is . convenient size.
They are ready made and much better
when unfolded, to take hold of any thing
with, than q made holder. and much
easier to wash. Just throw them in
with the brown towels, a. many a. you
happen to get during the week, and
they come out clean and ready to use
again.
Another girl pours hot water on
the blades only of steel knives
and they wipe easily and do not need
drying.
Another one told me the best way to
keep hams and dried beef was to pack
it in dry salt. We have tried it sew.
ersl years, with perfect success. An old
salt barrel Is convenient. Set il in
some cool, dry place; put quite thick
layer OF salt in the bottom, then pack
N the hams, using the pieces OF
dried beef, If you have any. for chirk-
ing cover with salt, then hams and
salt again, till the barrel lie full. There
is not the least danger from insects, it
toe hams are smoked and the beet
dried and put away early before the
hies come around, and they are much
nicer to handle than when put in ashes
or oats or anything Of that kind.

Hew 10 Quiet Horses.

According to a discovery made by
Prof. Sbiff. OF Florence,-s discovery
which has been pushed beyond him BY
many others,-it was found that it was
quite enough to touch the nostrils OF a
horse, simply passing the finger along
the sides Of the nose, TO stop the &C.
tivity OF the heart and respiration, and
stop consciousness in measure. He did
not find, but left another to find it. that
iaterchsnges between tissues and blood
is also stopped. 1t is well known now
that most Of those men who succeed
in quieting violent horses put their
fingers 10 that part, and sometimes
inside the mares. Merely touching
these parts may produce some effect ;
pressing hard upon them has far more
effect. 1t ia not essential that the sp-
plicstion be made there, as pressure
OF the lip may produce the same thing.
10 come animals, rabbits and
guinea pigs, i: we pass needles
into their chest and heart, go as to
Judge OF respiration and circulation,
We find that the needles stop altogether
as we prees the lips or part OF the
cheek 1t is not that the poor crea-
ture is frightened az when We have de-
prived them partly OF their conscious
ness, or almost altogether by the use
OF cbloroform, the same phenomena
occur. There is a very curious fact
mentioned by Cstlin, who travelled in
the West, and wrote two volumes Cd,
the Indiana He states that the calves
OF the buffalo, II they are caught,su the
air from the lungs OF a mau is strong
ly breathed into their postrIls, will be-
come so fascinated by that peculiar
influence shat they will run after the
horse Of the hunter, aud follow him
FIVE OF six miles. 1t is said, aud NJ.
Catlin affirns it, that in Texas, or 4
other parts OF the country where there
are wild horses taken by the lasso, II
the hunter succeeds in taking hold OF
their postrils and then iorcibly expels
air rom HE lungs into the nostrIls OF
the horse, be will follow MIN anywhere
and become perfectly tame. These
facts deserve to be studied. l have
heard that when Mr.. Rarey acted 80
powerfully on very violent horses, both
in this country aud in Europe, he had
something to DO with their nostrils
also. What he did, however, he kept
| in a great measure secret. That par,
OF the system, st any rate, has a great
deal to do in diminishing the activity
of the principal organs. 1t is very
| natural, therefore, that such a power
should be acquired by one who has done
such a thing to an animal,as intelligent
as the horse.

GOVERNOR KENPER's MESSAGE TO THE GENERAL
ASSEMBLY.
RICHMOND, VA, Dec. 2.-The General Assem-
bly, met at noon. Gov. Kemper submitted his
annual message, which, together with aceompa-
nying documents, covers one hundred and thirty
pages Of printed matter. He faTors recapitaliEa-
ton of the State debt in uniform obligations pay
able in thirty years, bearing en- annual interest
Of four per cent. sterling. A plan for providing
q State currency is proposed, which the Governor
believes would relieve one OF the most grieVous
wants Of the people.
He reneHs the recommendations Of his first
message on immigration, and says the State
should be its own agency in the matter, thereby
freely dissenting to actual and prospective immi-
grants, insuring them against all impositions,
sc. He recommends stringent and etfeetual leg
islation to prevent gross inequalities in charges
on some of the railroads, especially at points
where competition does not insure proper charges.
He favors the
COMPLETION OF THE CENTRAL WATER LINE
by the common government, and urges the with
holding Of no possible aid or encouragement
which might contribute to;the contamination Of
other recommendations looking to economy and
improvement in the State government.
VIEWS ON THE POLITICAL SITUATION.
The following extracts give an Idea Of tho Gov
ernor's views In regard to the political situation:
"Reeent events create the hope that the Govern
ment Of the Union is to be brought back to the
Constitution, its ancient landmarks and tradi-
lions recovered and respected, and fraternal re-
latiOns revived throughout the country. They
cheer the oppressed and Respondent Southern
people with the promise that the burdens which
have so long borne them down are to be lifted of.
The most suspicious day for the honor and we'll
being Of the whole country will be that in which
the great export producing States restored to
peace and productive energy by being restored to
their constitutional rights and relations. We
may rest assured Of success as soon as the repeal

NEW ORLEANS, Dec. 2.-The returning board
will make their final report on Saturday. Thus
far mere than one half the State has been can
vassed, and the result shows Dubuclet ,l35 ahead
of Noneure, the Democratic candidate for State
treasurer. These returns include the city of New
Orleans, which gave L, 900 Democratic majority,
1000 Of which is claimed by Republicans to be
based on fraudulent naturalization papers. A
number of Democratic parishes, where not q sim

counted. If these parishes are admitted they
will reduce the Republican majority to about one
thousand.
ACTION AGAINST NEW ORLEANS OFFICIALS.
NEW ORLEANS, Dec. 2-The taxpayers of this
city and county met at the st. Charles theatre
to-day, to take action in reference to rObberles by
county officials, and the destruction of the official
books and records of tho county, and demanded
the resignation Of the dishonest officials. The
sheriff and magistrates offered their designations,
but others could not be found. The immediate
cause Of this move on the part Of the taxpayers
arises from the fact that the sheriff has given no
bond, and they are unwilling to pay him some
s2OOOOO now due without his giving good and
sufficient bond.
Some of the other officers are uRder indictment
for q Translucent issue Of warrants, embezzlement,
&c. and 1t is charged that the sheriff is in their
interest, and that the clerk Of court permits the
abstraction and destruction of papers and records
containing evidence Of their guilt.
