Foreign Notes.

The nephew of the King of Siam is
to be sent to England to be educated.
TT is said that the British Prince
Arthur viii probably be made Duke of
Dublin.
The British revenue last year proves
to be larger than the estimates by $15,-
600, 900.
1T is dangerous TO offend British
mob. AT the Duke of Edlnburgh's re-
ception at London it showed somewhat
heavily, and a cry of umbrellas down"
was raised by the roughs. One gen.
tleman who stood in the front rank, re-
fusing to comply with the request of
the crowd, was Immediately set upon,
and subjected to considerable violence,
until he was rescued by the police, and
taken away. A medical examination
proved that he had sustained the frac-
ture of one rib in the left side.
Nor long ago, writes a London cor
respondent, an eminent English au-
thoress was leaving an afternoon con-
cert in London, when two old ladies
from the country, finding that she was
the writer of books that had delighted
them, rushed up to her and begged
permission TO kiss her hand. The au-
thoress blushed deeply and began tug
ging at her tight-fitting glove. The
glove was only withdrawn after min
ute or two of effort, causing much en-
barrassment to the modest authoress.
A French gentleman, who had witness
ed the proceeding, remarked .v if il
had been George Sand she would in
stantly have thrown her arms around
the old women and kissed each on both
cheeks.
The Mantua vase, left among the eff
feets of the late Duke Charles TO Ge-
neva, has, by mutual arrangements be-
tween the authorities of the city and
the reigning Duke of Brunswick, been
awarded to the latter, and will thus
pass from the possession of the canon.
BY this concession the remaining points
in dispute have been adjusted, and all
further claims upon the property aban-
doned. The historical but not very
beautiful vase has been variously esti-
mated mt worth from 10000 to 500
000f, but of course its great value
arises from its historic character
The German government through It's
agent at the recent sale of the late
Baron Rotschild's stud of horses, pur-
chased three year old stallion colt for
5000 guineas. The animal will be
used for breeding purposes and will be
an invaluable addition to the govern
ment stock of thoroughbred horses.
1t is in this manner that the cavalry
service of the Prussian government is
rendered SO effective, and is able to pre-
sent SO splendid an appearance on
parade and do such brilliant work in
the field.
The tree which adorns the center of
the square of Nosetto at Bellinzona, in
the Canton of Tessin, and which bore
testimony in 1872 TO the consistency of
the ''revisionist' citizens of that capt.
tai, has been recently decked out as if
for fete. Three escutcheons have
been affixed to the trunk of the tree,
bearing the following historical dates:
/. Federal Constitution of the 18th of
September, 1S4S; 2. Federal Revision
of the 9Th of March, 1872. 3. Federal
Revision of the 2lst of January, 1874.

One who has tried and knows il, rec
ommends the following rule. He says
that if this does not cure, nothing else
will, and as it costs but little, the read
or can lose nothing by making the trial.
The rule is Begin on cigars two for a
quarter, and smoke four the first day
then drop TO ten-cent cigars, and smoke
five the next day buy three for a quar-
ter, and smoke six next eight, of four
for . quarter; then ten iive-cent cigars,
and the following day smoke twenty of
those two for a nickel and if you are
not cured Of smoking or dead, you need
not try either felf-denial or suicide, for
you are proofagainst both.

pertinent again. am now trying the
same theory upon ducks eggs"
A Westchester, Pa, man gives the
results of his experiments in the Ohio
Farmer as follows Last summer L
Matched 122 chicks from eggs selected
on this principle, 1l9 of which were
pullets always select eggs of medium
size, believing them to be the best for
this purpose. | then get a large lamp,
and take an egg in my right hand, be-
tween the thumb and two forefingers,
big end uppermost, and hold 1T as near
TO the light as possible, then lay the
little finger of the left hand across the
middle of the egg. This will throw the
light i'll the egg then turn it around
slowly, aud you will perceive dark
spot the size of three-cent piece di-
rectly in the centre of the large end, or
on one side. As l raise poultry for eggs
and for the market, | of course set only
eggs for pullets, with few for cocker
els to replace the cocks of last year. 1t
would be well for an amateur to break
few eggs, empty out the contents, and
examine the large end, where the air
chamber in the different positions will

The Use of salt for stock.

While certain amount of salt is alb
solutely necessary for the health of
stock, it by no means follows that its
lndlscriminate use is either needful or
safe. On the contrary, salt used in ex-
cessive quantities is highly dangerous.
1t then acts upon the stomach and in
testines as an irritant poison, and cases
OF death have occurred through permit
ting cattle and hogs to consume too
much of it. When stock are allowed
free access to it, they will take a small
quantity very often but if denied a
frequent supply, they become ravenous
for it, and are in danger of eating it to
excess. The safest way is to use a
small quantity regularly in the food !;
u quarter of an ounce daily being amply
sufficient for COW or horse, and a
fourth OF that quantity for a hog or a
sheep. If stock are sailed once a week
no more than one ounce at time
should be given to a COW, and quarter
OF an ounce to a sheep or hog. 1t
should also be given in such manner
that no one animal should eat more
than it's share. 1t may be given seat
tered thinly in the feeding trough with
more safety than in any other way, ex-
cepting when it is mixed with the feed.
Regularity in its use is the most con
ducive to the health of the cattle. We
find 1T necessary to give this caution,
because some of our readers have been
ledto suppose, very enormously, that rs
salt is good thing, stock cannot have
too much of it.

A Remedy for HydrophObia.

A French physician, DIR. Buisson, of
Lyons, claims that he has discovered a
remedy for hydrophobia. When a per
son has been bitten by mad dog, he
should for seven successive days take a
Russian yapor bath of 1874 to 1ii de-
grees Fahrenheit. This bath may he
quickly prepared by putting three or
four red-hot bricks into a tub of water,
over which the patient must sit in a
cane-bottomed or willow chair for 10 or
20 minutes. After the disease has de-
clared itself, one vapor bath is sufii-
cient, but the patient must be strictly
confined to his room until the cure IL
complete. DIR. Buisson says that he
has applied this method of treatment 10
more than eighty persons bitten by
mad animals, and that he never lost q
single case. He discovered the remedy
when taking a vapor bath himself for
the purpose of killing himself 10y suiIo-
cation after he had caught the hydro
phobia from the saliva Of patient
When the bath was at about % Fahrcn-
heit all the symptoms disappeared as if
by magic and never returned.

White daisies on the meadow green,
Present thy beauteous form to me;
Peaceful aud joyful these are seen.
And peace and joy encompass thee.

And love them-for their beautys thine.
Red roses DER the wood and brook.
Remember me thy lovely face;

SO wild and shy its radiant grace.

And think OF lips more soft and sweet.

Shot swiftly over eastern seas,
Gold tassels of the bending corn
That ripple in the August breeze,
Thy wildering smile, thy glorious hair,
And all thy power and state declare

OF virtue and of beauty too.
From what height those eyes look down
On him who proudly dares to sue.
Yet, free FROM self as God from sin

Let me but love thee in the flower,
The waving grass, the dancing wave,
The fragrant pomp of garden bower,
The violet on the nameless grave;
sweet dreams by night, sweet thoughts by day,
And time shall tire ere love decay.
Vi
Let me but love thee in the glow
When morning on the ocean shines,
Or in the mighty winds that blow,
snow-laden, through the mountain pines
In all that = fair, or grand, or dread,
And all shall die ere love be dead.

A Young Man Assumes Ladies' Attire,
and Goes to Work as Factory
Girl.

Facts as follows have just come to
light at Little Falls. But a short time
ago n very prepossessing and intelli-
gent girl, as was supposed, applied for
and secured situation in one of the
knitting mills, under the name of Ber-
tina Rollins. She was quite reticent in
her department, though of an apparent
ly agreeable disposition. Seven young
men of the village had become smitten
with Bertha, and, when she announced
her intention of quitting the village,
these young men grew melancholy.
But Bertha left She went to Otsego
and there secured a situation in fac
tory, but there her manners mt once
created suspicion, and it was found, af-
ter carefully prepared plan, that Ber-
tina Rollins was Henry Wallace, of
Brooklyn, N. Y, who had playing
girl for year or two past very sue
cessfully, having for several months
been in the employment of New York
concert saloon proprietor as a waiter
girl. Wallace said he assumed the role
of girl because he could obtain employ
ment, and in male attire he could not.
