To Ascertain the Weight of Cattle.

The following rules are given by which
the weight of cattle can be ascertained
approximately by measurements: Take
the length of the back from the curve of
the tail to the fore-end of the shoulder
blade, and the girth around the breast
just behind the forelegs. These dimen-
siors must be taken in inches. Multiply
the girth by the length, and divide by
LA. If the girth is less than three feet,
multiply by eleven; if between three
and five feet, multiply by sixteen; if be-
tween five and seven feet, multiply by
twenty three; if between seven and nine,
multiply by thirty-one. If the animal is
very lean, one-twentieth must be de-
ducted-and if very fat one twentieth
must be added. Another rule is: Take
all dimensions as before, in feet, and
then multiply the square of the girth by
the length, and that product by 1856.
The result will be pounds. If you de-
sire to know what an animal will dress,
multiply the live weight by the decimal
sos; the product approximates to the
actual net weight, very closely.

The enlargement of the Welland canal

the Canadian peninsula west of the
Niagara river, between Lake Erie and
Lake Ontario, and it is to be enlarged to
width of 100 feet at the top and 100
feet at the bottom and depth of four
teen feet, solidly walled for considerable
distances with masonry. 1t will take in
the largest lake steamers. The work of
enlarging the Welland is expected to oc-
cupy three years, and cost from $1O,-

No city in the country-New York
alone excepted-is so well supplied with
amusements as Chicago. The city has
an over supply, and all grades-good,
bad and Indifferent people visiting
there, by any ordinary Judgment, need
never be deceived. The "New Chicago
Theater" and McVicker's Theater" will
rank with the best in the country. At
either good entertainment is always
presented. Money is iavishly spent by
the managers of these two houses for
the comfort and pleasure of their pa
irons. Both are making unusual efforts
for the Exposition term, and all may
visit them with the certainty of being
pleased.

DRINKING ones self to death is COM
mon pastime in these degenerate days.
But it is not often we hear of one drink
ing himself to death on cold water. Such
a case, however, has recently occurred,
the victim being ex-Gov. Graham, of
North Carolina. He went to Saratoga
to drink the waters for his health, and
lmbibed twenty glasses day. This,
the doctor says, was too much, and hast
ened his death. The advocates of cold
water should take warning, and not
drink to excess.

THE failure of the Bank of California
was brought about like all the heavy
banking failures of recent years, reckless
trading in stocks. Instead of confning
itself to legitimate banking business,
the concern rushed wildly into the whirl-
pool of speculation and was swallowed
up. Under the circumstances the col
lapse was inevitable, and was only ques-
ton of time. There is moral to be de-
duced from this great financial wreck
which it is hoped institutions of similar
nature will proftby. Solong as bankers
persist in violating banking laws they
may expect to reap the penalty. Will
they heed this last warning?

The spirit of rebellion is on the in
crease in the Turkish European prov
mces. Northern Bosnia is now in full
sympathy with the movement, and Servia
has taken sides with the insurgents, and
is at the same time endeavoring to incite
the Bulgarians against the common
enemy. Albania and Croatia are in open
revolt, and Montenegro is liable ct any
hour to be drawn into the tide of war.
Evidently the "Sick Man of the East /"
is growing sicker every day.

The son of a DIR. s. s. Wallihan, of
Southern Colorado, a lad of 10 years old,
was the occasion of most heartrend-
ing tragedy short time since. Seeing
hawk sailing along, he became anxious
to shoot it, and, catching up his loaded
shotgun, rushed, boy-fashion, for the
door of the house, where he carelessly
struck the gun against the decreasing,
discharging it. The whole charge en-
tered the neck of his mother, who died
in five minutes. Mrs. Wallihan leaves
five children, one of them babe.

GARDEN PATCHES.

One of Boston's best known mer-
chants, notedsfor his shrewdness and
penetration, had q test case. presented .
Short time since, and came off. victori-
o,u1ss. AS It is an illustration Of this
millionaire's penetration in great bus;
mess affairs, We give the story here:
It appears that the merchant wanted
another gardener upon his county es-
tate. near Boston, and an individual
presented himself for that Office. ~n

applicant mentioned gentleman the

Europe, had sold his estate, and had no
further use for him. :, IA &; ,,Eta,ssi

This was astonishingly low for such
! promising looking, sober man, and
the sbrewd business man rubbed MS

was ) : bargain. lot. but wasn't there
something wrong about it?'' His he.
bitual business caution even in this
comparatively triAing negotiation did
not forsake him. S. H. .as..s-
,'"Uall tomorrow at this time, and /
will have seen Mr.----- your former
employer, and give you an .ansrer." .
= The gardener turned and began to
walk slowly AWAY; as be did 50, he dis
pantaloons beneath the line Of his roan-
dabout jacket. ~
..Halio! come back here" called the
merchant, ..you needn't apply to-mor-
row; see shan't want you." !"
The astonished applicant stanmered
ont something about his knowledge OF
gardening and, good character, but was
cut short 81 this practical observer.
