The Drluse in France.

The recent floods in France seem to
have not only carried away bridges and
overlooked rivers, drowning cattle, &c,
but also affected the French agricultural
ISIS and manufacturers. The towns OF
Toulouse and Auch, which the floods
visited. have considerable manufacturing
populations. The corn, wine, oil, wheat,
the clustering aud trclliScd vines. al / the
olive and mulberry trees, are the priu.
ripal victims On the morning that
the dangerous character of the flood, be-
came visible. orders were given to stop
all traffic over the different bridges bat

arabic fields were swept bare. In the
valleys of the tributaries OF the Garonnt
disasters Of the same kind occurred, the
damage done being considerable IN the
Yarn and Gers rivers. The most diSas-
trous foundation on record in the Garonne
river was i'll l77O, when the river rose -
feet above It's ordinary level. The re-
cent floods appear to have done more
destruction at Toulouse than anywhere

t,nts stood watching the current aS

NJ. Frank Buckland, the e.Dincnt nat
uralist. gives the following description Of
n cows horn, in recent nualbcr Of Lond
o,5 Water. Ii is wonderful illustration
p, tho wisdom and skill of the God Of ma
ture:
find that over the brain of the COW a
strong roof Of bone is thrown. in the shape
nf an arch, so as to TORN substantial ioun-
Ja,;on for the horns. This root is not
solJ Int is strengthened below by Sc
,ies Of bouy aches, that are so dlstribrtcd
ne ~ form 4 series of hollow ch ,mbcrs,
,hus forming structure uniting strength
with ligL,ness. The problem now is, how
-, .astcn the HORN Oh each side to this
bu,tress. The horn itself must OF course
be formed of horn proper, /. G., hardened
hair. In the rhinoccros we find horn
.omposeJ entirely of solid mass of what
is really bunch OF hair agglutnated to-
cc,her: but this kind OF horn would haze
been much to heavy for the COW $ conve'
nicnt use. VIVA: is TO be done: Why,
hollow out the center of the horn, of
course; hut sia;, this sill not do, because
.cw is the horn to be supplied with blood
vessels: In fact how is it to grow?
Let us see how it is done by the Great
Designer. Cut the horn right across and
Won will find indie another horn, only
made of bone. If the section Is made
about one.thrd Of tic way down the
length, of the born, YOU will be able to
nick out a piece of Done i'll the shape OF a
cone. on which, or rather around which,
the horn proper has shaped itself. This
hone hts the cavity with the greatest as
curracv: it is as light as the thinnest pa
pcr. and yet as strong as a cone OF TIN.
il Is everywhere perforated with holes,
which in lite contained the Nerves, the
veins and the arteries; and we know COW
has all these in her horns; nerves, proved
by the fact that cows do not like their
horns touched, and that they can scratch
a tlv off their hides with the tip of their
horn; arteries and veins, proved by the
fact that horn, when broken, will bleed
and that the horn Of living COW feels
quite warm when hcldn the land, besides
" hitch the nerves and arteries form union
between the internal cone OF bone and the
external cone Of bone proper.
If wei now cut the first of the horn into
sections, we shall find that the inside OF
the bony part is really hollow, but that
very strong hu,ircsscs of bone arc thrown
(about an inch or SOY across the cavity OF
the horn, in such manner as t" give II
shc creates, possible support and strength

At Forty Years Of Age.

The age Of fifteen has been celebrated
in song as LIES rosy period, and it has
been allowed to bloom up to twenty, ay,
even up to twenty five; the age Of sixty or
seventy has been honored as being the
age of wisdom and of mature virtues. !

know lady who, when twenty eight years
old, gave herself out to be thirty-'for,'

those two yearsl' Perhaps also follow
little in her footsteps, for think with
her: thirty.eight, thirty nine, forty-why,
comes to the same thing. The wisdom

Forty years! DO you not feel something
"sct" in those words? At forty one has
generally settled down in life. This is
why one can quietly walk about and con.
template in this world. Our century has
also settled down, but it has settled down
in Parliament, and mcditates upon the
STATE, and therefore it looks neither merry
nor uneasy, but thoughtful. So, also, is
a wo4.an at forty. The heart does not
then beat uncasi'y before a party, more
uneasily after one; nor do we then stand
here in life as candidate for anything, n
prey to wishes, hopes, uncertainties. hap
pincss and misery. Neither does the
frame of orr mind, like the chameleon,
take the impression of every new object,
changing from rose color to black. from
green to gray, in the course OF a few hours;
nor do we see in every one whom We meet
some important parsonage in the romance
OF your life; nor in every uttered mons ,nsc
Il monster which you are to rush upon aud
attack, like Don Quixotc battling with the
windmill; you need not then dance when
you want to sit still, nor walk according
to the will of others. when you have your
own within Il word, you are above great
deal of anxiety and trouble. Many q
rosy light has, it is true, pcrchancc waned,
but also many mists have rolled away and
frightened. You see your way clearer,
you walk along more steadily; not swaycd
hiihcr and thither by the wind, as i'll youth;
not leaning With taltering steps upon the
faltcring crutchcs Of old age; You walk
sturdily on you legs, and look around in
the world without coming to ii>,icuil's with
it. Forty years is the age Of contempla-
ton, OF practical thought. Long lite to
them.--FtedriIa Bremen.

We have very recently had the failure
of the house of Duncan; plior to that, of
Jay Cooke, Ralston's added third. They
are the studies of the greatest di.similarity.
The shortest way to express the cause of
them all is our mcthodical prodgal country

was previously American and immensely
altered the civilization of Europe. Be
ginning with the discovery of gold in 1S49,
we have twcntysix years of gold and sill

preaching the figure of Sl00, 100000 yield
per annum. 1t is said now to be S6J,OO0.-
600 year. Australia was mere wart
and consequent Of the gold discovcry.of
California. That discovery in Suffers
mill lai has gone on widening and widen
ing, until Nevada has developed silver
and gold large enough to bridge the sea,
and Arizona is coming forward and the
lower parts of California, with mines as
rich when the railroad shall arrive to de-
vclopc them the products of those mines,
returning to us in credit from Europe, has
already built our railroads. And talston
has been broken down as much by too
little faith in the resources of his coast as
by being too ventursome. Ills success.

TIE POWER OF TUE GRANGE.-Ihc
,rranoc IN, come to he an aCknowl-
"ducJ power in the land. That it will
be power for good, present results
.lca sufficient answer. 1t has set the
;ar,nrr, throughout this great valley
the uranarv o.. the world--to thinking.
When the people begin to think earn
cs,lv, beneficial results are FOREGOING
conclusion. The grange movement has
been the direct means OF melting thought
in relation to tn. vital subject of cEca!,
TRANSFORMATION. Ii ha, lead the masses
of the farmers into the habit OF qucs-
ouing, instead of quietly submitting 10
he existing condition OF things. In
looking into things, they have found
that frcights could be moved at profit
10 transportation companies at = much
less rA,e than charged before any united
action on the part Of the farmers took
placc.
The tide of public sentiment, which
has swcpt eastward from the west, has
not been trlitless of good results. The
passage of the Eads jctty bill; appro-
priations for the removal distractions
from the southern and western streams
may very properly be regarded as
concessions on the part Of Congress to
the expressed wish OF the Patrons of
Husbandry.
If such has been the power Of the
grange in the single matter oftrarspor-
;ation, what may not be expected when
the ordcr-now in its fancy, shall be-
come stronger and better disciplined,
and will act, as we fully believe It will,
as a unit for the accomplishment ofmany
other equally as much needed reforms?

COOKING GREENs.-Evcry house
wife thinks she can cook ''grccns." 1t
is the simplest Of all dishes, and yet, j"
most cases. they are not we'll served, for
much depends on the manner in which
they arc boiled. The wafer should be
soft, and tablespoonful Of s:.lt added to
a large sized pot of it, which should he
boiling hot when the greens are thrown
in; and then it should bc kept on the
boiling gallop, but uncovered, until
they are done, which can be told by
their sinking to the bottom of the pot,
and they should be skinned out as
quickly as possible into colandcr, 50
that all the water will run out. Press
them with small plate, then turn upon
a platter, add a large pic~c of butter and
cut up fine. Serve when smoking hot.

OF taking step toward bct,cring his
