said the stout one; eff foe, man or

still it is my rule to stand my ground

no man or beast, not I. Hank what
is that noise
81 am sure said the short man that
is the growl of bear; I know there
are bea4s in this woods.'
The bear was soon in sight. The
tall man ran short way and hid in a
tree. The short man fell fiat on his
face on the ground and held his breath.
The bear came to him, smelt him, and
thought he was dead. So he left him,
and with gruff growl or two went on
his way.
When the bear was out of sight the
short man rose from the ground, and
the tall man came down from the tree.
What did the beast say to you my
friend 2" said the tall man to the short
one. ST saw him put bis mouth close

The City of PeshaWur.

This city of Asia, called the Adj
vanced Post, " which has been visited SO
severely by fire, IS the frontier city of
Afghan1stan. It is situated at dis
lance of twelve miles east of the Khy-
Der Pass, in which the British troops
suffered so dreadfully at the hands of
the Afghans years ago, and forty miles
to the west of Attock. The city was
taken and desolated by the famous war;
rior Runject Singh, during the present
century, and never since recovered its
prosperity. A great portion of it has
remained IN ruins. It's mosques have
been desecrated; its palaces laid waste.
The neighboring country is exceedingly
fertile, and the city is VIII situated for
the purposes of commerce.

TanSY for Bots in Horses.

A correspondent of the Department
Of Agriculture, says: It appears from
remarks by different writer's that none
knew of any certain remedy. [ know
of a remedy, that is safe and certain,
discovered in the following way: About
thirty years ago, friend lost by bots
very fine horse. He took from the
stomach of the dead horse about gill
of bots and brought them to my office
to experiment upon. He made prep
rations of every remedy he had heard
of, and put some of them into each.
Most had no effect, few affected them
slightly, but sage tea more than any
thing else; that killed them in fifteen
hours He concluded he would kill
them by putting them into nitric acid.
but it had no more effect on them thai
water; the third day they were as lively
as when pat in. A bunch of tansy was
growing by my Office. he took hand
ful of that, bruised it, added a little
water, squeezed out the juice, and put
some In; they were dead in one minute.
Since then have had it given to every
horse l have seen affected with bots,
and have never known it to fail of Civ
ing entire relief. My friend had an
other horse affected with bots, several
years later. He gave him the tansy in
the morning and dose of salts in the
evening; the next morning he took up
from the excretions three half pints of
bots.
