CARSON, February IA.
OF course the usual adjournment
until Monday took place Friday
afternoon. and all the members hied
themselves up to Virginia, to get
little fresh diet and better quality
of bit whiskey. During the past
week very little legislation was trans
acted-the two Houses being chiefly
engaged in introducing anti-railroad
bills and adopting resolutions grant
ing their respective Chambers to fe-
male lecturers.
DULL DAY.
Friday was a dry dull day in the
Senate-but three solitary visitors
appeared in the lobby, and they soon
fell to sleep under the soothing lul-
labiac humdrum discussion on An
Act to amend an Act entitled an Act
amendatory of an Act repeating an
Act entitled an Act to prevent hogs
and goats from running at large.
The members were generally busily
engaged in mailing weighty State
documents to their benighted con-
stituency, while the pages were
earnestly engaged in earning their
81 per day in licking postage stamps
in aid of the dissemination of knowl-
edge. Senator Cohn of Elko moved
an adjournment, and notwithstand-
ing that all were tired and worn out,
the motion was lost. A few min
utes later, the regular adjourning
member came to the rescue, made
his standing motion, and the Senate
81 do now stand adjourned until Mon
day.

pKoPAGAToRs OF DISEASE.

The Pal Mall Gazette says -
"Among the many agents for the
spread of infectious diseases are, it
seems, 'our domestic pets For the
propagation of fever dog is some
times as bad or " orse than a drain,
and case is referred to in the Sani
tary Record, in which scarlet fever
was carried from one child to another
by iavorite retriever. The dog had
been reared in house where scarleti
ma prevailed, and was subsequently,
given to friend of the family. Short
ly after one of the children in the dogs
new home was attacked with malig-
nant scarletina and died. Disinfeet-
ants were used plentifully, and every
precaution taken to prevent recur-
renee of the malady, but, in two
months time, q second child took the
same disease, i'm its worst form, and
died. AS the dog had been the con-
slant companion and play fellow of
these children. its woolly coat, it is al
legged, became so charged with con-
tagious matter as to render it source
of disease and death. Although it is
fair to the dog to admit that the chill
dren may have caught the fever from
other sources than his woolly coat, yet
there is reason 10 fear that both dogs
and cats especially the latter, do occa-
sionally assist in the circulation of in
fectious illness, and where fever pre-
walls, the sooner they are lodged out
of the house the better. They arc

RECENT note has been made of the
arrival at the Garden of Acclimation,
in Paris. of six giraffes, the oldest of
which, is three years of age. The gi-
raffe is a native Of Africa, and used to
inhabit the country from Nubia to the
Cape of Good Hope, but it is said now
to be restricted to small canton of
Abyssinia. All attempts at domesti-
eating the animal have failed i'm Afri-
ca, yet it is easily tamen in Europe
In its native haunt it roams in herds
of from five to fifty, browsing on the
leaves and small branches of trees. 1t
is inoffensive. aud seeks to escape dam
ger by flight; yet, if hard pressed, will
fight stoughtly, discharging storm
of kicks with its hind legs that will
even beat off the lion. Its running
pace is swifter than that of a fleet
horse, and it moves over uneven
ground with great advantage. The
flesh of the giraffe is called palatable,
and its marrow is a favoritc African
delicacy. l.ua-a 1880

Gen. Chanzy, this past season, issued
a circular to the generals Of division
and perfects in Algeria, directing
them, in dealing with these public
pests, to adopt the method which has
been successfully employed in Cyprus.
This comprises systematic seeking and
destroying the grasshoppers' egg:
and also attacking the crickets on the
march. 1t seems that before becom.
ing full-blown grasshoppers, the crick-
cts, about a month after they are
hatched, begin to march, and this they
de in large compact masses fer peri
cd averaging some metwcnty-seven days,
during which they never swerve from
the iine of march once adopted. TIE
people of Cyprus take a band Of silk
from sixty-five to seventy centimetres
high and 100 metres long, and this they
tie vertically to poles firmly fixed in
the ground, the upper part being wax
ed or bordered with oiled silk to a
width of about ten cent?
metres, and the earth so heaped
up under it as to leave no crevice be-
tween the silk and the ground. A
second band was then set up so as to
form a sort of gallery. of gradually
diminishing width, being at the mouth
somewhat wider than the column OF
crickets, but only five metres wide at
the end, where is trench five metres
long, one and half wide and one
deep. This forms the trap, or ''sys.
tem," several of which, 100 metres
long, can be placed end to end and
transported to any point threatened
by the invaders. All that has to be
done is to wait till the column oi
crickets has reached the trench; then
it is covered in with earth, and moth
ing more is seen of the crickets.-

WHAT EVERY WIFE OuGnTToKNow.
Every action and emotion deplctes
the physical system. Milk, the first
food absorbed by men and animals, is
the oniy natural mixture, containing
all the elements of blood save the col
oring. Water constitutes thec-fourths
of tie body. To work well, physical
ly or mentaliy, we must be ted judici-
ously and thoroughly. The worker
must eat mixed food. Food properly
administcd stimulates the system as
wine does, only more naturally. Tie
long night hours empty the stomach,
depie,e the system, and chill the body.
On arising, the physical condition is

THE USES AND FUNCTIONS OF THE
... -... Hail, LEAF. ,sd. -ftt .u. .4.,.
The Office and utility OF leaves are
becoming better'understosd by culti-
vators than formerly; yet we find a
good many still adhere to the old be-
lief that the SUMS rays, shining direct
ly on forming fruit, are what perfect
it, independently of other Influences.
On this subject, theory and practice
have been invariably found in perfect
accordance with each other. The
principles of physiology teach Us that
the sap of tree, when it passes in. at
the roots, remains nearly unchanged
in its upward progress through stem
and branches, until it reaches the
leaves, where, being spread out in in
those thin organs, to light and air, it
undereoes a complete change, and thus
becomes suited to the formation OF
new wood and new fruit. Strip q
rapidly y-growing tree of its leaves at
mid summer, and from that moment
the supply of new wood ceases, and
it will grow no more till new leaves
are formed; and if it has young fruit,
the growth and maturity will cease in
the same way. A few years since, a
yellow gage plum tree lost all its foli-
age from leaf blight, while the plums
were not fully grown. and while, yet
destitute of flavor. The fruit remain
ed stationary and unaitered, until, in
a few weeks, a second crop OF leaves
came out They then swelled TO full
size, assumed their crimson dots, and
received their honied ed~swectness of
flavor. The object OF pruning should
be, therefore, to allow the leaves to
grow TO full size without being in
jured from crowding. We find the
following corroboratiye fact stated in
a late number of the Neic iEHqlahd
Farmer: We once knew an intelli-
gent lady who stripped her grapevines
of portion Ofthcir leaves, in order TO
to let the sun and ripen the frui. but 10
her surprise, where the leaves remain
asNature had disposed. them, the grapes
were the earliest, and every way the
best, This led her 10 investigate the
matter. when she was delighted TO
learn that the leaves were not only the
protectors, but the caterers of the
fruit, constantly celebrating ana sup
plying it with the pabulum itirequires
to bring it to perfection.-The (Lon-

Whenever any soreness appears in the
throat, put the potash in tumbler OF
water, and with it gargle the throat
thoroughly; then rub the neck
thoroughly with the camphorated oil

BEN. FRAxKL1N AND HIS BOY.

A little incident worth relating hap
pened to Ben. after he had become a
married man, and was living in a small
village down in Connecticut. j. w.
Dusenberry's circus and menagerie
just arrived from Blossenburg, and
was going to give performance in
the evening, and Ben's oldest boy was
seized with an irresistible desire to at
tend. So at the dinner-table he asked
permission of his father to attend the
circus, in the evening. -.-......
''No, no, my son, you must not go
to the show. 1t is an unfit place for
me, as consider it how much more
dangerous must it be for you; l will
not allow a son of mine-to attend
circus. performance where l myself
would blush to be seen. Go to bed,
my boy, and your mother and 1 will
go to prayer-meeting. Tomorrow 1
will buy you a new Testament for
your obedience"
He went to bed but not to sleep.
An hour afterward Ben and his wife
might have been seated ON top board
under the brilliantly lighted circus
tent. Ben's face glowed with enjoy
ment and his jaws worked industri-
ously upon big end of twisted dog
tail tobacco. Once he bowed his head
and allowed half pint of juice to is
| sue from his mouth and descend be-
tween the seats.
A smothered cry of pain came up
from below. t...- .s.....
