Hogs Want Sulphur.

Whether hogs require sulphur As an es-
sential to their health. or whether it is
sought by them a. 4 continent, may not
be discovered. But one thing is true,
they devour it with greed whenever It is
to be found. It's for this purpose, prob
ably, that they can eat large quantities Of
soft coal, which contains a large amount
of sulphur. Perhaps this Is the most eco
nOmical method Of supplying hogs with
sulphur during the winter, when they re-
quire good deal Of carbon. But in
summer, it is better TO feed it to them in
substances which contain lesscarbon, on
account OF their producing less heat.
Mustard is one Of the best things for this
purpose. and some of it should be sown
in every pasture into which hogs are
turned. If hogs are kept in, or in small
yards, it is well to supply them with the
wild mustard that grows ia the fields or
highways, or to cultivate some of the bet
Ter varieties for them. They will eat its
leaves, its flowers, seeds and talks.-Our
Home Journal.

PANS, July SIN the Assembly debate
on the public powers, a Radical moved
an amendment making future Assemblies
permanent. Minister Buffet defended the
Republican Constitution of February 25th
The amendment proposed is in every way
violative Of that instrument. He concluded
as follows Prudence requires us to seek
a guarantee against coups d'etat, We shall
find such, not in clause of Constitution,
but in the establishment of government
in harmony with the traditions, character,
and wants Of the country. A permanent
Assembly would be a constant focus of agi-
tation, causing public opinion to turn to the
side Of Executive honor. Permanently
would be the most detestsble gift possible
to bestow upon the Assembly. IfAssemblies
remain faithful to public opinion, the Exc
cutive power win respect them" The
amendment was rejected. The amendment
as adopted, should the President die while
the Chambers are dissolved the Senate shall
convene and new elections be Immediately
ordered. The bill then passed to the third
reading. The vote was GAG to 81.

Gratz Brown.

The profound and phenomenal ignor-
ance involved in Gov. Gratz Browns ar
gumcnt against contraction, as stated in
his recent interview, is another evidence
of the reed OF earnest effort on the part
OF all believers in honest money Here is
a man OF far more than average intelli-
gence, who really thinks that the times
are hard because there are not enough
greenbacks printed to do the business
that waits TO be done by them. lie really
imagines that the country is full of work
waiting to be done for more greenbacks,
full of crops ready TO be moved when more
grecnbacks are printed, and presumably,
that the European demand for bread
stutts will revive the moment more
greenbacks are printed. He seems to be
equally ignorant that month by month
more greenbacks have gone out of use
because there was absolutely no Use for
them, and at this very hour they glut the
safes of every bank and trust company in
all the great money centers.-Trt6une.

A Pennsylvania Water Spout.

The rear end OF passenger train,
on the Pittsburgh, Washington and
Baltimore Railroad was caught by "A

near Bridgeport, Pa, about fifteen
miles from Cumberland, aud almost

who WAS on the train says that imme-
diately previous to the fall there was
loud rumbling sound, and the appear
ance Of a water spout. The spout
broke, the outer edge catching the rear
car, and the main body sweeping
down on the track. The mountain
side was flooded apparently two or
three feet deep, and the rush Of water
carried immense rocks down to The
railway, damaging the road-bed so that
trains were delayed several hours

Treatment Of a Balky Horse.

The Society for the Prevention of
Cruelty to Animals puts forth the fol-
lowing rules for the treatment of balky
horses
I. Pat the horse upon the neck exam
inc the harness carefully, first on one
side then on the other speaking encour-
agingly while doing so then jump into
the wagon and give the word 90 gener-
ally he will obey.
>. \ teamster in Maine says he can
start the worst bally horse by taking him
ont of the shafts and making him 90
round in a circle till he is giddy. If the
first dance of this kind does not cure him,
q second will.
3. To cure balky horse, simply place
your hand over the horses nose; aud shut
of his wind until he wants to go.
4, The brain of horse seems to en-
terrain but one idea at a time therefore,
whipping only confirms his stubborn re-
solve. If you can, by any means, give
him new subject to think of, you will
generally have no trouble in starting him.
A simpler remedy is to take a couple of
turns of stout Irvine around the fore leg,
just below the knee, tight enough for the
horse to feel, and tie in a bow knot. At
the first check he will probably 90 dane
ing off, and, after going short distance,
you can get out and remove the string to
prevent injury to the tendon, III your fur
Their drive.
.. Take the tail of the horse BETWEEN
the hind legs, and tie it by 4 cord to the
saddle girth.
6. Tie string around the horses ear.
close to his head.

Auction Sale of Express Parcels.

One OF the most stirring occasions in
the routine of express duties is the sale
by auction of the "old hoss,m or uncaim-
ed freight which accumulates from time
to time. When every possible method to
lind the owners has been tried and has
failed, an auctioueer is called in, and the
articles are sold to defray expenses. No
package is allowed TO be opened or exam
ined until it has been purchased, and u
spirit OF speculation is thus eXited In
those who assemble. Small carefully
sealed packages bring the highest prices,
on the supposition that they contain Jew
elry. An avaricious old customer once
paid ten dollars for neat brown paper
parcel sealed with evident care at both
ends. 1t contained a hundred or more
rejected addresses " from swain to
" the fair sun of all her SEX" Another
similar parcel was Knocked down to a
bidder for eight dollars, and was found
to contain set of false teeth. Patent
medicine, whisky "a still more patent
medicine, toys, old clothes, surgical in
struments, disinfectants, preserved ami
mails, old magazines, false hair, and
many stranger things, are usually found
among the old hoss " packages. 1t
may be assumed that most of them are Of
small value, as we have said, inasmuch as
either the sender or consignee Of yaluables
would take care to have u thorough
search made for any valuble property

TO the Editors Of The Chronicle:
Items of news in this section are
scarce. The extreme hot weather Of
the past few days seems to have "over-
come" almost everything to snch an
extent that but little is stirring.
The wheat harvest is about over,
and threshing will be the next thing
in order. The yield with us will be
fair one as TO quantity, ald of IA very
superior quality. Your correspondent
has heard a number of farmers say
that IL was their intention to hold their
surplus wheat, If the market was not
above dollar. This course. l think,
Is all wrong, and entails loss, not
only upon the farmer, who thus turns
Spectator" but also upon the com.
munity in which he operates. The
experience OF the most successful farm
ers OF our county proves that it is the
best policy 20 sell produce whenever it
is ready for marketing. The farmer
rarely ever makes anything by hold
ing for higher price"
Corn and oats are fine and our peo-
pie rejoice in the prospect of plenty to
eat next year, and the "black berry
crop" will, in great measure, make
up the failure of our peaches.
Business Is dull, but few people COM
ing TO town from the country. A con-
siderable number of Southern people
are passing through our town en- route
for Tate Spring, Mineral Hill and
Warm Springs.
notwithstanding the lot weather, a
considerable number of people con-
tluue to guzzle mean whisky, and
drunk men on our streets are freqnent-
ly to be seen.
Our corporate authorities have COM
pletely played Out,n the Board hav-
ing had no meeting since last spring.
Many Of our citizens hope they will
never meet again"
| The prospect for the completion of
the Western North Carolina railroad is
said to be good, and Morristown rejoic-
eth thereat. Yours, PLUTINUs.

Medieval Homage to Women.

The i'll opinion entertained Of women
by men during the ages Of darkness and
superstition found expression in laws as
well as literature. The age of chivalry
Investigators who have studied that
Wanted period in the court records and
law-boOks tell us that respect for women
is thing Of which those records show 10
trace. In the age Of chivalry the widow
and the fatherless were regarded by
lords, knights, and - parsons " as legiti-
mate objects of plumber. and woe to the
widow who prosecuted the murderers Of
her husband or the ravagers of her es-
tate! The homage which the law paid to
women consisted in burning them alive
for Ofienses which brought upon men the
painless death of hanging. I'VE modens
read with puzzled mcredulity such sto-
ry as Godiva, doubtful II so vast am out
rage could ever have been committed in
community not entirely savage. Let the
reader immerse himself for only few
months in the material Of which the his
tory Of the Middle Ages must be compos-
ed, II 1t shall ever be truly written, aud
the tale of GOdiva will seem credible and
natural. She was her lords chattle and
probably the people OF her day who
heard the story commended him for
tightening the burdens Of Coventry on
such easy terms, and saw no great hard
ship in the task assigned her.
People read with surprise of Ehomas
JefiersOn's antipathy 10 the poems and
novels Of Sir Walter Scott. lie objected
to them because they gave a view of the
past ages utterly at variance with the
truth as revealed in the authentic records,
which he has studied from his youth up.
