A NEW TRIAL.

To-day's dispatches bring worse news
than the removal of Attorney Fisher Of
the District Ring, or the suspension of
Duncan, Sherman u Co., an old estab-
lished banking house. 1t even sur
passes the breaking out of the yellow
fever in Florida, or the severe freshets
in Ohio, or the probable acquittal
of the Mormons accused of par
ticipating in the Mountain Meadows
massacre, in short it is the most dis
heartening news of the season. This
intelligence is nothing more nor less
than new trial of the Tilton. Beecher
scandal case. Judge Morris, counsel
for Tilton, has served q notice on
Beecher's lawyers to be prepared to
answer in new trial on the first Mon
day OF September. Another jury is to
be empaneled. hundreds of witnesses
are to be examined, the principals and
secoads in this terrific legal encounter
are to again appear in court, and the
scenes which have scandalized Brook
lyn and created sensation throughout
the civilized world are to be re-enacted
the coming fall. This is enough to create
a paroxysmal fever in the minds Of the
public, and bring countless thousands
to the ragged edge of despair. 1t is
probable that a change of venue will be
asked for by the plaintiff, and that the
next trial will be held in New York
City, for Brooklyn can scarcs BIZ ex-
pected to furnish twelve more men who
have not made up their minds, and who
are willing to sit in a courtroom tor

charge of by the Masonic fraternity

to it. This, when properly attended to,
will be found to render the task OF keeping
down the lice much easier. The quarters,
including roosts, nests, walls, floors and
utensils of all kinds, should be thoroughly
whitewashed, say in April, July, Septem-
Der and November The wash should
have some sulphur or kerosene or both in
corporated with it, and if it be put on hot
it will be all the better. 1t should be thor
oughly applied to every crack and Granny
no point being missed. The roost poles
or perches should be removed and all the
bearings or points of contact should be
especially treated, for it is in these places
the smites'' are most at home. After a
thorough application of the lime wash
the roosts should be well smeared with a
mixture of lard or kerosene. Careful,
painstaking people are not much annoyed
by these pests; but where the vermin are
not looked after and kept in check they be-
come very troublesome and hurtful to
fowls. We have known them to kill not
only young chicks but even hens on the
nest while Matching Generally hen
will leave her nest and allow her eggs to
spoil rather than let the vermin destroy
her. This practice on the part of the hen
is often matter of complaint, the owner
not knowing what is the cause OF her leav-
ing the nest.-N. Y. Herald.

Clicked Cattle.

DURING the past winter we have fed our
COWS and young cattle many bushels
apples, and during the time have had sew
eral cases of choking in the herd. One
COW, in particular, required close watch
ing, as she quite frequently got an apple
lodged in her throat while eating. Instead
of attempting to punch the apple down at
such times, our first move was always to
turn her loose and make her move about
the yard few minutes. This alone was
generally sufficient to cause the apple to
move either up or down, but if not, a ia
blespoonful of soft soap was dissolved in a
quart of warm water and, with some per-
son to hold her head, a little of the suds
was poured down her throat, followed by
gentle handwriting on the outside OF
the neck, near the seat of the trouble.
Sometimes two or three doses would be re-
quired, but generally one was sufficient.
We recommend soapsuds as fully equal 10
sweet-oil or other more expensive prepare
lions, while it is always easy to procure at
short notice. If one is feeding roots, ap-
pies Or potatoes to stock he should keep
little watch of the animals while eating
and attend to any case of choking imme-
diately, for if left alone but for a short
time the parts become inflamed and the
removal of the obstruction becomes much
more difficult, even if death does not take
place before the case is discovered.-Neao
EnOL0nd Farmer.

DISCRIMINATING Cut-WOrms.

In the last Agricultural Report Prof
Townsend Glover has an excellent article,
in which he has illustrated and described
several kinds of this pest. He says that
many of these insects are destroyed when
in the caterpillar state by the footless larva
Of "Tachina," or two-winged fly, which
lives in their bodies. Many species of
ichneumon flies also destroy them in a
similar manner. Wasps carry them off
to their nests as food for their young,
while multitudes of the grubs are de-
stroyed by crows, black birds, etc., when
plowed up in the spring and lying help
less on the surface of the ground. Fall
blowing will turn up and expose these in
sects to the inclemency of the winter.
Manuring the field with sea mud is said to
be useful Searching for the worms when
they come out to feed or digging them
from their holes near the plant and killing
them is doubtless the most etfectual
remedy we can employ. Curtis says one
quarter ounce of salt dissolved in a quart
of water will drive the grub away and pre-
serve the plant till washed off by rain.
Tobacco water will kill them if it comes
in contact with them. Quicklime will
also destroy them if put on the plants
when wet, and dry SCOT dug into the
ground is very offensive to the grub"
Suds made of one pound of soap to ten
gallons of water and applied warm will
cause them to dart out, when they can be
Immediately killed. -Four ounces of aloes
dissolved in gallon of water and applied
to the plants is said to preserve them from
the cut-worm Smooth holes made with
a rake or hoe handle near the plants will
serve as traps into which the worms fall,
and may there be destroyed. Coal tar and
water, spoonful of the former to gallon
of the latter, will, it is said, drive the
worm away without injuring the plant.
Where few choice plants are to be pro-
tected this may be done by wrapping stiff
paper or walnut leaves around the stem
when setting them out, leaving the paper
little above ground and an inch or two
below Cow-dung stirred in water and
poured around the plant, SO that the solid
part will remain and form hard surface
through which the worm cannot penetrate,
has been recommended. For similar in
sect in Europe Kolar advised lime ashes
applied to the land, or lime water in damp
weather If the female moths are attracted
by sweet liquids, many of them may be
killed; and, as they are also lured by
lights in the evening, they may be de-
stroyed in this manner to some extent

Murders of Sick People in India.

DURING the incumbency of Sir Cecil
Beadon (he Friend Of China says) an at
tempt was made to regulate the practice of
taking sick people to the river side to die !;
but nothing was done then, as the Govern
ment of India and the Secretary of State
did not consider any interference in this
matter necessary, although the more adj
vanced section of the native community
threw their opinion into the scale with the
Lieutenant Governor. That some regula
tons are absolutely necessary will be seen
from these facts: Son Thursday before
last, at about five o'clock in the afternoon,
procession was observed passing through
station not far from Calcutta, accompa-
MED by the usual din and noise. AT the
head of the procession was a man about
six feet high carried on litter four feet
long, in much the same way as the bed of
PrOcrustes in the olden time was made to
accommodate its victims of any stature.
At first the occupant of the stretcher was
taken for corpse, but on closer cxamna-
ton it was discovered to be human be-
ing in the last stage of physical prostra-
ton. The head was dangling over one
end of the stretchcr, and the face exposed
to the full glare of the sun, which the dy-
ing man attempted to keep off by shading

by his son in the crowd, who opened an
umbrella and held it over him. The pro-
cession stopped at CHAT opposite the sta
ton public library, and the stretchcr, with
its CHASTITY burden, was laid on the ground.
The sick man expressed wish for some
thing to drink, and a cup of milk
was held to his lips; he then had smoke
and conversed freely in the meantimewith
his friends who had followed him. A
miserable looking and shabbily-attireG ma
tive, who was addressed as the Koberaj
Mohashai, held the pulse of the sick man
with a gravity of circumstance worthy of
disciple of Galen. To cut the matter
short, the sick man was kept at the CHAT
till the Saturday following, and, as he still
persisted in disappointing his friends and
relatives in their expectation of seeing him
depart this life, he was removed to another
ghata little higher up the river, where he
was kept for time immersed in water,
with the head and a portion of the chest
above it, till he expired in this position.
The deceased was man of the weaver
caste and of some prospects. He had re-
moved to this station some years back
from Doud, where portion of his family
arc still residing. Another CHAT muir
der took place about two or three
weeks ago. In this case the victim was a
woman, the wife of respectable shop

Most fruits yield juices which, owing
to the acid they contain, permanently in
jure the tone of the dye; but the greater
part may be removed without leaving a
stain if the spot be rinsed in cold water
in which few drops of aqua ammonia
have been placed before the spot has
dried. Wine-stains on white materials
may be removed by rinsing with cold
water, applying locally weak solution OF
chloride of lime and again rinsing in an
abundance of water. Some fruit-stains
yield only to soaping with the hand, fol.
lowed by fumigation with sulphurous
acid; but the latter process is inadmissible
with certain colored stuffs. If delicate
colors are injured by soapy or alkaline mat
tiers the stains must be treated with color
less vinegar of moderate strength.
