There was young Dcboon from Bos

one of those fcarfnlly learned young
men, man who conld talk in all
tongues and think in none. Perhaps
at some time he had been waiter. ]
am bound to say that in my observa

travel, the most drcadfully learned
young men ever met are the walters
in the continental hotels.

CARIYLE.-On a recent visit to Scot
land, Mr.. Carlyle dined at a house
where his ncighbor at the table hap

Of Mr.. Carlyle was as follows:
"Mr. Carlyle is an extraordinary
man; he is a perfect nobody in socie-

an interest in nothing. For half an
hour tried to draw him out on art;
no use. Then tried him on his own
subjects, on literature, history, biogra,

CANADA ANNExArIoS-A convention
Of delegates from both countries has
been called T. meet at Buffalo, New
York, on the Fourth Of July, with a
view to proposing and pcrfectint a
plan for the union of Canada with the
United States. These two countries
seem to be getting along very AMIGA
bly just now under separate govern
ments, and with the constantly incrcas-
ing railroad facilities between them,
with the enlargement of the Welland
Canal in the use Of which both partici.
pate for their mutual interest, they will
become still more friendly. But the
proposed convention will give the del
cgates an opportunity to pro'nulyatc
to the world all the advantages which
would be gained by such annexation;
but that annexation is not likely to be
favored for the present by any consid-
crablc influence in Canada.

A Buttermilk Bath.

IT is said buttermilk will remove sun.

remove freckles. We are no authority
for either statement, but couple of men
who drove along North Pearl street this
morning about nine o'clock, and who
turned rather too "all of sudden" into
State, are. What they don't know about
the effect of buttermilk when applied ex-
ternally to the human form can properly
be set down as not worth knowing. You
see they were seated in low sleigh, and
at their back were two barrels filled to
the brim with the foaming buttermilk
which cheers and removes tan but don't
inebriate.
We can't say how it came to pass,
whether one of the sleigh-runners caught
in the horse-car track, or whether The
driving was careless. or whether the
horse took bad streak, but the conse-
quence was fearful to contemplate. Just
as the sleigh turned to pass from Pearl
into State-look out there! Over went
the whole concern, the two unfortunate
fellow-creatures under and the butter
milk on top!
They didn't lose much of the milk-in
fact they caught the whole of it on their
heads or else down their backs The
spectacle presented by the twain lying
prone and dominated by the beautiful
buttermilk was one well calculated to
awaken all the better feelings of all the
spectators, and the consequence was, not

well enough, but when buttermilk comes
to get you in a corner-that's another

Marlborough was handsome man, but
there seems no record of his being

Clayerhouse was small; so, we believe,

considerable difficulty in obtaining relia-
Bile evidence on such points, we pass at
once to what We believe to be the fair
conclusion. To judge if man is over
grown or not-and on this depends his
real Illness for severe work-we must
know not only his own height, but that
of his race generally. An Englishman of
the upper classes of five feet ten inches
in height need by no means be an over
grown man, but we should suspect a
Frenchman of the same stature. To En-
glish ears the incident sounds strange of
Gen. Bonaparte walking up To knot of
disconnected French officers in Egypt,
and informing one that his 60 five feet ten
inches would not prevent his being
hanged for mutiny. A race of giants,
then, men who naturally grew to a
height of ten feet, with vital powers in
proportion, would be indeed terrible in
the species of war waged between Israel
and the Philistines. No wonder if the
spies crept past them, feeling they were
grasshoppers in their own sight and in
that of the giants also. Hence we can
not wonder that God chose individual
men to show that under the greatest dis
advantages the battle was still the
Lords. -Sunddy Magazine.

An EXPULSION OF Shakers,

A LONDON correspondent of the B,s-
ton Post writes: "A proceeding at once
painful and ludicrous took place several
days ago at New Forest Lodge, near
Huntington. in Hants. For the past two
years community of the singular sect
called Shakers have occupied large
house and farm there in common. The
house was theirs by purchase but their
worldly concerns were of such sort that
they found themselves forced to mort
gage it. When the time came to pay off
the mortgage the brethren and sisters,
absorbed in spiritual zeal, were not pre-
pared to pay it. Thereupon the mort
gagee foreclosed and had writ of eject
ment served upon them. The simple
folk did not regard the circumstance
with much alarm and placidly refused to
remove their household gods and goods.
The Intervention of Her Msjesty's Sheriff
became necessary. On the appointed
day of ejectment large crowd
gathered about the house. The Shakers.
132 in all, counting men, women and
children, went on their way as if coming
events in no way concerned them. AT
the usual dinner hour says one account
they assembled to partake of light
repast of a strictly vegetarian order, be-
ing with pumpkin. After that they sang,
prayed and danced till five p. M, one
lady having persisted in a celestial Jig
for two hours without intermission
Then the men, women and children, in
fants, adults and patriarchs alike were
all turned out, the exiles being led bv
the Mother of the community, one Mrs
Girling. From six until nine D. m. The
snow fell heavily. After that it rained
in torrents all night Notwithstanding
the pitiless weather, these extraordinary
enthusiasts remained shelterless, hud-
died together under the lee of their
Lares and Penates, and singing hymns
Next morning the compassion of good
neighbors relieved their situation some
what. A worthy farmer sent them some
milk, and another passed around
some bread and cheese. Still the
Shakers remained in the wet and sleety
road, and did not bulge. They STAYED
there throughout the following day.
They were told to move on if not,
their goods would be seized They kept
on singing hymns, with an occasional
dance. When night came on they so far
yielded to the benevolent entreaties of
the neighbors as to seek the shelter of
barn not far off, which was offered for
their use, and some of the children were
taken into the cottages. Next morning,
leaving four of their number to protect
the household effects, the main body at
last set out in search of some other habi-
tation. The case has aroused great
deal of interest and compassion through
out England; yet it is really hard to see
how they have suffered any very cruel
injustice. If they are martyrs they have
certainly made themselves so. They had
full notice to quit. Probably, however,
they were evicted in the rude and sum-
mary fashion peculiar to English legal
processes against the poor; and it may
have been the bearing of the Sheriff's
officers which aroused their obstinacy.

Let Horses Go Barefoot.

Every day of my life see horses who
are begging their owners to relieve them
from tight shoes. Let US bring the case
home. What does a man do who has bad
corns? To relieve himself he at once
pulls of his boot and relieves the pressure
from the corn. Now, what is good for a
man is good for horse in very many
cases, certainly where corns exist, and
very few horses are entirely free from
them. A months work barefooted on
the snow will help horse with corns
more than bis owner will believe, with
out trying the experiment. Instead of
being stuck upon three calks, the foot
gets the true bearing which nature in
tended 1t should have.
When urge people to drive their
horses barefoot on the snow, if only for
a week or two, am constantly told, NV
horse will fall down, or break his hoof
all to pieces" Now, / know the horse
viii do " nothing of the sort" / don't
say that he can be driven at three-min-
ute gait and not chip his hoof; but do
say that for all light driving, at moder-
ate, respectable rate, the hoof will never
break to injure it. l drove my old
horses (twenty-one and twenty-five years
old, without shoes last winter, and they
did not fall once, or slip any more, if as
much, as horses which were calked, and
whose calks were worn down. Another
immense advantage in going barefoot is
being able to drive through dee o snow
without feeling afraid that your horse
will get cut with his calks.-Cor. Our

Striking, or Interfering.

A great number of horses are in the
habit of striking one leg against another;
and good deal of ingenuity has been at
different times exercised in search of a
remedy for this very troublesome prac
tice. Both the fore and hind legs are
subject to cutting, the latter, perhaps,
most frequently; but in them it is con-
fined to the fetlock joint, whereas in the
fore legs the horse may hit either the
fetlock, the leg just above the pasterns.
or just under the knee, where it is called
speedy cut, from its occurring chiefly
in fast action.
1t is desirable, before applying rem
edy, to ascertain, if possible, the cause,
and the part which strikes, whether the
shoe or the foot, and if the latter, what
part of it. Many horses strike from
weakness, and cease to do so when they
gain strength and condition. This is
more particularly observable with young
horses. Others cut from a faulty con-
formation of the limbs, which are some
times too close to each other; and some
times the toe is turned too much out or
too much in; when the toe is turned in
the horse usually cuts under the knee.
The objects to be kept in view in
shoeing such horses must be to remedy,
dS muCu as We Can, Tue faulty action, and
to remove, if possible, the part which
cuts The part of the foot which strikes
is generally between the toe and the in
side quarter, sometimes the inside quar-
ter itself, but very rarely the heels of the
sioe. If the horse turns his toe in, in
all probability he wears the inside of the
shoe most; and if so, it should be made
much thicker than the outside. If the
contrary the outside heel should l,a
thicker than the inside. The shoe should
be beveled off on the inside quarter,
which should also be free from nails.
In the hind legs we often find that
three-quarter shoe will prevent cutting
when other plans fail; for here the part
which cuts is not situated so forward as
IN the fore legs, SO that the removal of
the iron altogether from the inside quar-
ter viii often accomplish our aim. 1t
sometimes happens that every plan we
can adopt viii not prevent cutting, and
then the only resource is the adoption of
boots or straps.-Prairie Farmer.

USEFUL AND SUGGESTIVE.

CARBoLfc acid has SO many uses in a
family nowadays and is such fearful
caustic when not carefully handled that
every one ought to know that fir balsam
corrects the bad effects of the acid. The
latter burns into the flesh when drop OF
clear acid touches it, and the fir balsam
should be spread over the spot to remove
the pain and heal the burn.
ZONE who has tried it" communicates
the following item about curing sore
ion readers buy at any drugstore one
worth of chloride of potash. Whenever
any soreness appears in the throat put
the potash in a tumbler of water, and
with it gargle the throat thoroughly;
then rub the neck thoroughly with the
camphorated oil at night before going to
bed, and also pin around the throat a
small strip of wooden flannel. This is q
simple, cheap and sure remedy.
RABBITS and squirrels, fried, broiled

SOLDERING WITHOUT FIRE.-Take one
ounce of sal-ammoniac and one of COM
mon salt, an equal quantity of calcined
tartar and as much of bell metal, with
three ounces of anthony. Pound well
piece of linen and inclose il well all
around with fuller's earth about an inch
thick. Let it dry; then put it between
two crucibles over slow fire to get heat
by degrees. Push on the fire till the
lump becomes red hot and melted alto
gether; let the whole cool gradually and
pound into powder. When you want to
solder anything put the two pieces you
want to join on a table, approaching
their extremities as near as you can to
one another; making crust of fuller
earth, SO that, holding to each piece and
passing under the joint, it should open
on the top; then throw some of your
powder between and over the joint.
Have some borax, which put into hot
spirits of wine till it is consumed, and
with feather rub your powder at the
joint; you will see it Immediately boil
As soon as the boiling stops the consol-
idation is made. If there be any rough
ness grind it off on a stone-E1change.
