burned air at a rate of speed that near
ly hurled King out of his basket; an
other fash would send him whirling IN
another direction, and ever and anon the
gas would come down through the low

the terrified balIoonist. The gas finally
escaped, so that the balloon began to
fall and soon passed out of the cloud.

WAR CLOUDS.

A war cloud of considerable size is
looming up in Europe, on account of an
insurrectiOn of the Turkish provinces in
Southeastern Europe. Austria and Rus
STA have interests in the matter and are
preparing for war. The Sultan Of Tur-
key will neither yield to the requests of
the provinces, nor the suggestions of
other powers. The "sick man" of Tur-
key, as the ruler of that region was call
ed by the Russian emperor some years
ago, will be unwise if he does not settle
this matter before the two powers man,
ed get seriously into the quarrel. Tur-
key can't stand a minute before the pow.
er Of Russia and Austria.

There is supposed to be charm in
savage life, in roughing it in the woods
or by the seashOre. There is delight
in sleeping in the open air, on heap
of boughs, by the camp fire, performing
your ablutiOns in the brook, and cook
ing your own breakfast. Thousands at
this season of the year seek health and
recreation in camping out. At first
these devotees of nature embrace their
mother Earth with much fervor, and
scorn the comforts of home, but we no.

gradual return to the appliances Of CIV
ilized life. The bare ground beneath

by the walls of a cottage, and 10 ! we
are in summer residence by the sea-
side, having travelled in few short sea-
sons all the distance from savage to civ
ilized life. The truth is we may rave
about the delights of living in state of
nature, but we are all glad enough to
get away from it as fast as we can. II

A. A. EARLE'S LAST RACE.

Earle having an unenviable distinction
in different directions, has now obtained
lasting glory in a new field. For many
years he has planned and aspired to be
consul, or as the next best thing, to own
and run horse trot, having all the hon.
OTIS resulting therefrom. In contempla-
ton of the great event, and in the busy
preparation, the Citizen has been neg
lected, and grown insipid-no flashes of
wit, no abuse of enemies and friends, no
vulgarity for which that pa
per has been distinguished has appeared
in it of late.
In the town of Waits6eld the memo
rable event transpired, and the editor
was there immortalized. The grounds
were hired; great placards announced
the races; the day came; the editor in
a chariot of state with his family and
satraps around him were in the field,
but the crowd did not come. The jock.
eys quarrelled, the Chief did not come
down with his stamps to pay the purses,
and there was general row. The next
day was rainy, and the anticipated
crowd did not come the Jockeys refused

Farm Garde N ing I'm Maine.

1t will show to what exent farm garden
ing or market gardening at long distance
from markets, is being engaged liz by our
farmers, if we mention an instance which IS
but one of many that may be found in our
state. Mr.. s. ID. Greenleaf of Starks, of
whose operations in this line we have before
spoken-has this season put in the following
crops: One acre Of beets, one acre of cab
bages, two acres of onions and four acres
OF cucumbers for pickles, Mr.. Greenleaf has
in addition about three acres in cranberries,
upon which he has expended much time
and labor and which is now beginning to
be a source of profit to- him. He has sue
ceeded well in the above line of farming
in past years, his success being the result
of an experience with the management to
the several crops gained from his own prac-
tee. He labors under some disadvantage
from being situated at some distance from a
railroad, but Notwithstanding this, sends his
prooucts to quite distant points having last
year marketed several hundred bushels of on
ions, ana large number of cabbages in Ban
gor. HIS pickles find ready market nearer
nome. MI. Greeneaf grows the Lane I'M
proved Sugar Beet to a large extent, and finds
them the best and cheapest food on which TO
raise or fatten hogs he has ever used for that
purpose. He has fattened swine on them.
entirely, with no sour milk, Stops, or feed of
any KIND; and keeps store pigs through the
winter, on them alone, last winter keeping
eight. On piece of rich land intended for
onions, but not planted on account of not
getting good seed, he last year raised eleven
IONS from one fourth of an acre. He esteems
them highly as winter feed for all kinds of
stock.-Moine Farmer,

A Remedy for Looseness of the Bowels.
A correspondent of the Boston Catltiuator
publishes remedy for summer complaint
that he declares is sure and safe:
Half teaspoonful of black pepper, half tea
spoonful of salt and half cup of vinegar.
Fill the cup with boiling water. Remove the
scum which rises and set to cool.
Dose-one tablespoonful every half hour.
wear flannel over the bowels. Lie down and
keep quiet and warm. Eat plentifully of
whortleberries, blackberries and milk. Don't
drink one drop of water that has not been
boiled, or stood upon rice until it is milky.
Remember that every step taken, and every
drop of unboiled water drank is an aggrava-
ton of the disease.
This was the course enforced at one of the
war hospitals where was during the rebel
lion, where chronic darriea cases were
brought from the Southern prison pens.
Many were saved by it.
