RIDING MARE,

sobriquet "Stonewall," is one of the sole
| cisms OF the war. 1t is said that il wa,
given him at the first battle of Bull Run
on account Ga the stubborn resistance be
made just before The Federal stampede
And it is true that at the second battle OF
| Bull Run, while waiting for Longstreet
he made still more heroic stand in the
face OF overwhelming numbers But moth
ing could be greater Islander on Jackson
than to call him q Stonewall. Ioppstnee.
was the real Stonewall. For reforming his
lines alter they had been crushed. and keep
ing his men up to the scratch after they h ad
been licked all to pieces, Longstreet was the
man. But Jackson scorned defensive war
fare, and was so famous for being the at
lacking party and for making unexpected
assaults, that, il he had been called Eagle
or Avalanche !, would have been infinite
ly more appropriate
There are two anecdotes of jackson tn at
were current in the Southern army during
his Lifetime, which are very illustrative q
his character and habits, and which, As /
have never seen them in print, I will re-
late. The first shows how his punctual
habits, without which he never could have
been great man, followed him from the
military institute to the field. 1t used TO
be said among the soldiers that on one oc-
casion Jackson sent message to one of the
captains to meet him at headquarters at
Ten MINUTES TO TWELVE O'CLOCK.
AT the appointed moment the general
was seated IN front of his tent, ready for
business. But twelve O'Clock came. and
the captain had not appeared. But the
hour OF noon was with Jackson the hour of
prayer, and he immediately Withdrew into
his inner tent, where he remained in seclu-
sion for half an hour When he emerged
again he found the delinquent captain
sitting meekly in front of headquar,er.
awaiting his return. But Jackson was So
disgusted with his unsoldierly dilatoripess
that he refused TO tell him the object of the
summons or have anything to say to him.

ed him, crestfallen and disgraced, to his
regiment.
The other anecdote bring. up very diff
terent scene. Gen. Burnside, having yerv
foolishly crossed the RappahannocE river
at fredericksburg, where:Le was ensconced
IN lmpregnable natural Notifications, and
having been dreadfully cut to pieces during
the afternoon and evening, Lee called q
council Of war late at night to deter
mine what should be done to follow up his
advantage. Among the Major-General.

Training n Horse Ia Trot.

\ correspondent of the Turf, Filed
and Farm tells how he trained an 4od
cavalry horse TO trot. He was accus-
toned to lope" and could not be made
to understand what was required of
him, until space of some 400 yards
was measured off IN a field, and he was
ridden across this. Whenever he broke
he was scolded, at once turned about
and again started from the starting
point. If he trotted across without
breaking he was petted, fed Jumps of
sugar, apples, or some other pleasant
food. In this way he soon learned what
WAS wanted, and made every effort to
trot this distance III the shortest time,
becoming horse of unusual speed A
somewhat similar plan was some years
since set forth III q circular and sold at
one dollar.
We refer to this now, not so much be-
cause of the desirability of knowing
how TO teach a horse to trot, as because
the lesson taught can be applied in very
many ways. Teaching any domestic
animals what is expected of them is of
the greatest impol lance. If an animal
knows that n specific duty is required,
to be followed by rest or reward, it will
much more readily do what is expected
than II II has no definite conception Of
what is before it.

A Wonderful Plant.

In an address delivered before the
Association for the Advancement of
Science, Dr. Hooker exhibited won
derful plant called Djonioi. A Liver
pool paper in an account of it says: :" \
fly was captured and put upon leaf,
which instantly closed, and on reopen
ing it vas found that the fly was com
pletely dissolved. A bit of beef was
atterward consumed in the same way
TIE leaf was then fed with cheese,
which disagreed with it horribly, and
eventually killed it. DR.. Hooker ex-
planned that the plants action was pre-
cisely similar to that of the human
stomach. The leaf rejected piece of
wet chalk.

How General Grant Nearly Cheated
Destiny

After Shiloh, General Halleck came
and took the field, and General Grant.
after winning this battle, was :. substan
TALLY left out, and was named second in
command, according to some French
notion, with no clear, well-defined COM
mand or authority. For more than
a month Grant thus remained without
any apparent authority, frequently visit
ing me and others, but rarely complain
ing; but | could see how deeply he felt
the indignity, if not the insult. heaped
upon him." This overshadowine of
Grant continued for short time, and
evidently moved Sherman's sympathies
toward his commander. One evening he
learned that Grant had asked for thirty
days leave, and was going to depart
the next morning. "Of course, we all
knew" says Sherman, "that Grant was
chatting under the Sights of his anoma
lous position, and | determined to see
him on my way back. His camp was
short distance off the Monterey road, in
the woods, and consisted of four or five
tents with sapling railing around the
front. As | rode up, Majors Rawlins,
Hogan and Hllliyer were in front of the
camp, and piled up near them were the
usual effects and camp chests ready for
starting in the morning. [ inc aired for
the General, and was shown to his tent,
where | found him seated upon camp
stool, with some papers on a rude camd
table. He seemed to be employed in
asserting letters and tying them up with
red tape into convenient bundles.
After passing the usual compliments, /
inquired if it was true that
he was going away. He said,
yes. | then inquired the rea-
son. He said: sherman, you

and can endure it no longer. l inquir-
ed where he was going to. He said ST.
Louis. | then asked if he had an V
business there and he said, Not bit.
| then begged him to stay, illustrating
his case by my own. Before the battle
OF Shiloh L had been cast down by a
nlere newspaper assertion Of crazy
But that single battle mad given me
new life, and now [ was IN high
feather. l argued with him that if he
went away events would go tight along
and he would be left out, whereas if he
remained some happy accident might
restore him to favor and his true place. !"
The result was that General Grant re-
manned, and Ill short time, by the
removal of Halleck to Washington,
became the commander of the army

About SunhO,yfrs.

Sunhowers are rich in honey, and are
consequently good neighbors for bees.
Oil, hardly to be distinguished from OIL
I've oil by any one but an expert, may
be extracted from the seeds, in the pro-
portion of one gallon to one bushel.
One acre will produce something lire
fifty bushels of seeds. The seeds, too
make food not Irnpalatable for human
beings and very good for animals and
poultry. The Portuguese and American
Indians make a kind of bread from
them, and roasted they may be ground
and used as a substitute for coffee.
The salks may be used as bean poles
while growing. Dry, they make passi-
BILE roofs for sheds and the like, and
burn rapidly on the hearth. The ashes
nre very rich in potash. Altogether it
is very useful plant, and, to crown all,
it has reputation which the scientists
have never disproved, for absorbing
malaria, and action as an effectual screen
against that scourge OF low lying dis
trlcts-feVer and ague.

ball is from half an ounce to an ounce !:
but they may be given of larger size, if
they are longer but not wider. Every
man owning or handling horses should
know how to give ball, which is man
aged either with or without a balling-
IRON, an instrument which Is seldom
wanted, and which sometimes occasions
considerable mischief to the roof of the
Ii Irse'sl mouth Occasionally a horse
cannot be managed by any other means;
but, generally speaking, they are only an
excuse for bad management. In giving
ball In tie ordinary way, the horse 8
tongue is drawn out of his mouth on
the off or right side, and held there
firmly with the left hand grasping it as
near the root as possible, but to GER
tain extent yielding to the movement of
the horses head. While the tongue is
thus held, the ball is placed between
the fingers and thumb of the right hand.
extended IN a wedgeike or conical
form, so as to pass as far down the
swallow as possible, and the hand in
this form, with arm barred to above the
elbow, is carried over the root of the
tongue till it feels the impeachment
caused by the contraction of the swal-
low, when the fingers leave the ball
there, and the hand is withdrawn quick
Iy yet smoothly, while at the same mo-
nent the tongue is released, and the
head Is held up till the ball is seen to
pass down the gullet on the left side of
the neck, after which the head may be
released.
When the balling iron is used, the
oval ring of which it is composed is
passed into the mouth, so as to keep it
open, being first we'll guarded with tow
or cloths wrapped round it. The han
die is then held in the left hand, to-
gether with the halter, 80 as to steady
the head, and yet TO keep the horse
from biting; and while thus held the
hand can freely be passed over the
tongue, end the ball be deposited in the
pharynx. When horse is very deter
mined, it is sometimes necessary to
keep the iron IN the mouth by means of
the check pieces of an ordinary bride
buckled to the sides of the oval ring;
but this expedient is seldom required
If the halter is firmly grasped with the
handle of the iron.
In the usual way, the horse to be
balled Is turned round in his stall,
which prevents his backing away; and
II the man Is not tall enough. he NAV
stand upon a stable-bucket turned up
side down. Balls should be recently
made, as they soon spoil by keeping;
not only losing their strength, but also
becoming so hard as to be almost insol-
uble IN the stomach, and frequently
passing through the bowels nearly as
they went into the mouth. When hard
they are also liable to stick in the
horses gullet. If ammonia or any
other strong stimulant is given in this
way, the horse should not have his
stomach quite empty, but should have
a little Cruel or water just before; for if
this Is put off till afterwards the nause-
GUS taste of the ball almost always pre-
vents his drinking. When arsenic
forms the principal ingredient of the
ball, it should be given soon after the
horse is fed; or quart or two of cruel
should be given instead just before the
ball.
