An exhibition of the Olstburp f,

An exhibition of the Olstburg fire.
extinguishing apparatus took place
in Berlin recently, in the presence of
the Emperor, the Empress and other
distinguished persons. The inventor
is Swede named Olstburg. Captain
Aldstrom, who performed the expert
ment, appeared in a peculiar looking
costume, made of the Olstburg in
vention, and walked into an immense
fire made Of wood saturated with
petroleum. The heat of the fire was
so intense, that no one else could ap-
proach within eighty PAGES without
being burnt or scorched. The Cap
tain, however, walked around in the
glowing pile perfectly undisturbed,
leaning on the burning wood, and
finally quietly seating himself on the
Goals. He remained in the fire for
fifteen minutes, and on his coming
out every one pressed around him TO
see how much he had been injured.
He was unharmed, and in spite OF
the Emperor's observation that he
had seen enough Of SO dangerous an
experiment, Captain Aldstrom went
again into the fiery oven. On finally
emerging, he took off the suit and
appeared in red flannel.

and I went to ses1 the officers and
told them that the Indians had left,
and I supposed there would not be
any attack made by them that morn
ing.
There, my dear friend, you have
my personal story of the great fight,
and the rest you will learn from the
newspapers. At eight o'clock we
saw cavalry approaching, first few
scouts and then dense column, and
soon learned it was General Brisbin' s
command coming up to our relief.
Presently long line of infantry ap-
peared on the plain and General Glib
bon came up. All! who that was
there will ever forget how our hearts
thrilled at sight of those blue coats,
and when Generals Gibbon and Ter
ry rode into our camp men wept like
children. Yours truly,
CHARLES G. DE RUDIO.
P. 81 should do injustice to my
feelings if I should omit to mention
the fidelity and bravery of Private
o'Neil. He faithfully obeyed me
and stood by me like a brother.
shall never cease to remember him
and his services to me during our
dangerous conpanionship. This brave
soldier is highly thought of by his
company commander, and, of course,
ever will be by me and mine.

Twenty-Five Hogs Raised Without
a Grain of. Corn.
ATHENS. GA, June 18th. 1876.

ATHENS, ga, June 10Th, 1876.
Editor Athens Georgian 1t was
my privilege to attend the State Ag-
ricuftural Convention, held at Thorn
asville in February, 1875. Among
the many good things said before this
body was one that [ think would be
interesting to many of your readers
who seem desirous that we farm
ers should make our own "hog ana
hominy."
A gentleman who seemed to know
well what he was talking about, and
was urging every farmer to have his
smoke-house at home, stated that it
was practicable, as he could testify
from his own experience and practice,
to raise an abundance of pork with
out feeding a bushel of corn from the
crib.
His plan was, as near as I can re-
| collect, about as follows:
In August, 1878, he sowed two
acres in turnips; IN September he
sowed three acres in black. oats; in
September or October he sowed three
acres in rust proof oats; in Februa-
ry 1874 he planted two acres in Irish
potatoes in March, he bedded two
or three varieties Of sweet potatoes
sufficient to set two acres: in Feb
ruary or March he planted peas in 1t
for early pasturage. In April he
planted two acres of sorghum, and
in the same month planted two acres
of chufas, and two acres Of ground
peas; on the first of March 1878 he
bought three sows with twenty-five
pigs, these of course had to be fed
from the crib until the first of June,
when the oat pasture Of ''T2 would
ripen and the Irish potatoes mature,
then com rs in the sorghum, then the
sweet potatoes, then comes the early
pea field pasture, and lastly the
chufas, ground peas, sweet potatoes
! and turnips for fall fattening. Then
allowing two shoats for fresh pork, to
have twenty fat hogs to slaughter on
the lst Of January 1878, each nine
months old and weighing 200 pounds
each. Besides fattening the twenty
two shoats, your sows each have
twenty-five more pigs to 60 into the
next year, 8 supply, and you have
turnips to feed your cows with, Irish
potatoes and sweet potatoes for your
family, and barrel of syrup, chufas,
field peas and ground peas to bring
on your second lot of pigs through
the winter of 1873 and IA until Irish
potatoes and early oats. The chufas
are intended only for rapid fattening
and for young shoats in early spring.
Hogs should behoused every night
to protect them from bad weather, to
prevent thefts, to secure them against
breeding from other stock, and to
have them breed only at the proper
time. The manure from the same
will repay the trouble of housing.

AWFUL SUSPENSE.

cannot find words sufficiently e1.
pressive to describe my many thoughts
during those six or seven hours oi
suspense. Many times I asked r,
self if it was possible IT, Aould
end my life in SO barbarous, inglori-
GUS and obscure a manner. Some.
times I would answer myself that it
could not be; I had gone through go
many dangers, had made so many
sacrifices for my adopted country, I
could not think I should die in such
a way. I could not believe / had
been preserved so long to end in SO
unjust and obscure q manner. Fl
nally the time came when, under the
protection of night Gt was very
cloudy, we were able to come out of
our hiding place and take the direc.
ton of the ford, which was two miles
to the south, through an open plain.

their horses and the soldier and my

HOPE FULFILLED.

We were about 200 yards from
the fire, and I resolved to call out to
the picket and tell him who I was.
I told my companion to be ready to
follow after me, and when I had
we'll surveyed the ground I cried out
Ticket, don't fire; it is Lieutenant
De Rudio and Private O'Neill," and
started to run. We received an an.
swer in a loud cheer from all the
members Of the picket and Lieuten-
ant Varnum. This officer, one Of
our bravest and most efficient, came
at once to me and was very happy to
see me again, after having counted
me among the dead, and his joy af-
fected me so much that I entirely
forgot the adventures of the thirty
six hours just past, and was happy to
be once more in the company of my
brave comrades.
My first question was about the
condition of the regiment. I was in
hopes that we were the only suffer-
ers, but I was not long allowed to re-
main in doubt. Lieutenant Varnum
said he knew nothing Of the FIVE
companies under Custer, and that
our command had sustained loss
in Lieutenants Mcintosh and Hodg-
son. My dear friend Varnum now
procured me some coffee and hard
bread. but I was SO happy and excl
ted over my escape that I could eat
nothing, but drank the coffee. 1t
was about two o'clock A. N. when ]
got into camp and I soon after tried
to go to sleep; but though I had not
nights ] could not close
my eyes. I talked with Lieutenant
,Varnum about the battle, narrated
to him adventures q and narrow es-.
capesyl had had. Morning soon .. came i.as

SAINTS.


They sat on the steps of the station
And waited for trains to connect
a colporseur eating his ration,
And q skipper who twice had been
wrecked
And the strangers began conversation.
The skipper was wrinkled and hoary,
His skin was the color of leather.
3 The other looked hungry and sorry;
And after discussing the weather
The skipper struck into his story:
III tell ye of three saints I've know
ed of,
Thatgiv' up their lives for their broth
A sort you may not hev allowed of,
But folks that'll die to save others
Is beins for God to be proud of.
"The ship Swaller, Cap'n James Bee,
~. In fog off the Hatteras coast,
Was wrecked on ledge to the lee;
Jim stood like rock at his post,
And went down in gulp Of the sea.
"He showed how to build us q raft,
And crowded her full as she'd float;
he sprang to the davits abaft,
And lowered and loaded each boat,
Then stuck to the battered old craft.
he saved every life but his own
Women, children, the men and the crew
Cheered when the last dory was gone
No room for him in her he knew,
And he went to the bottom at last!
Ny friend" asked the colporteur grim
Had s Bee e, made his peace with the
And he laid down his cracker. "What
Said the skipper; "I shouldn't s'pose
ID be mad at feller like him!"
"Another was young Andy Bell,
Who worked in the Cumberland coal
he stood at the mouthrof the we'll.
The mine was afire, aud the hole
Blazed up like the furnace of hell!
The$nen was imprisoned below,
The women was screamin' above;
The boss shouted, Who'll face the foe,
And fly to the rescue for lover
And Andy remarked, I will co.
"I ken die in the shaft, for I hain't
Nary father, ner mother, ner wife!
And down in the bucket he went;
Saved fifty by losin' his lite
I say Andy Bell was saint"
"Did he pray God" the colporteur cries
"To help him to fightwith the flames? p
"Now I think ont" the skipper replies
I've heard Andy mention his name
More frekent than some would advise!
"The third one, Newt. Evans, my friend
Took his engine to Prairie du Chen;

And cried to the stoker, Eugene!
