also relieves the pain. If the tincture be

RxpulsiOu of Flies.

The Rev. George Meares. Drought, writing
from Ireland to the "Times," says For
three years have lived in town, and during
that time my sitting-room has been free from
flies, three or four only walking about my
breakfast-table, while all my neighbors rooms
were crowded. often congratulated myself
ON my escape, but never knew the reason OF
it until two days ago. 1 then had occasion
to move my goods to another house, while I
remained on for two days longer. Among
other things moved were two boxes of Gera-
NUNS and Calceolarias which stood in my
window, the window being always open to
full extent, top and bottom. The boxes
were not gone halfan-hour before my room
was as full of flies as those around me. This,
to me, is a new discovery, and perhaps it
may serve to encourage others in that which
is always source of pleasure, and which
now proves to be source of comfort, viz,
window gardening.'-London Garden.

A city new and strange,
Down many a watery vista
My fancy takes range;
Here dwell the simple Dutchmen
Whose Threats am to cram;
And can you be in Boston
And 1 at Rotterdam!
Before me lie dark waters
In broad canals and deep,
Whereon the silver moonbeams
Sleep, restless in their Sleep
A sort of vulgar Venice
Reminds me where l am;
Yes, yes, you are in Boston
And Pm at Rotterdam.
Tall houses with quaint gables,
Where frequent windows shine,
And quays that lead to bridges,
And trees in formal line,
Aud masts of spicy vessels,
From western Surinam,
All tell me you're in Boston
But I'm in Rotterdam.
And now across a market
My doubtful way 1 trace.
Where stands solemn statue,
The genius of the place;
And to the great Erasmus
1 offer my salaam,
Who tells me your in Boston,
But Pm at Rotterdam.
The coffee room is open,

The dominoes are noisy,
The hookahs raise a cloud;
The favor now OF Fearon's,
That minges with my dram,
Reminds me you're in Boston
And Pm at Rotterdam.

The toast 1t shall be mine,
In schiedam or in sherry,

American Cattle London.

Much interest was created in the live cattle
market yesterday by the presence of several
salable fat beasts from New York. Consid-
ering they had journeyed about 5000 miles
by sea and that on their reception at the port
of London they were very rudely treated,
they were in marvellous good condition. The
cattle arrivrd in the docks on Monday week,
all sound, with the exception of one which
had suffered severe butting and bruising.
The inspector declined to allow any of them
to pass until he had examined the one that
showed symptoms of injury. This he did not
do at once. He waited until the following
day, the result being that the uniDjured
thirty-seven (thirty-eght being landed) were
kept until Wednesday in space not sufficient
to accommodate half the number. Then it
was veterinarily declared that the animal
supposed to be affected with chronic disease
was all right, and it was sent up to the
shambles to have the small offal condemned;
the meat however, being passed, and the
Others permitted to 90 at loss to their own
ers of at least couple of pounds per head.
Still they handled admirably. and the prices
realized showed that they must have been
extremely good ere they started on their long
and 'parlous" journey, as they made from
928 to 936 head, good price, even in this
day of "dear meat"
The great fact to be noted is this, that ami
mails can be brought long distances by sea
without suffering much deterioration in well
appointed vessels. The question to be con-
sidered is whether the freightage may not
absorb the proft.-LOndon Advertiser.

The Wonders of Incubatiou.

A late number of thr Poultry World, in
speaking upon the.subject of incubation, says:
"The hen has scarcely sat on her eggs twelve
hours before some lineaments of the head
and body of the chicken appear. The heart
may be seen to beat on second day; it has at
that time somewhat the form of a horseshoe,
but no blood yet appears. At the end of two
days two vessels Of blood are to be disting-
uished, the pulsations of which are visible;
one of those is the left ventricle, and the
root of the great artery. At the fiftieth hour
one aurcle OF the heart appears, resembling
moose folded down upon itself. The beating
of the heart is first observed in the auricle,
and afterwards in the ventricle. At the end
of seventy hours the wings are distinguished
BILE; and on the head two bubbles are seen
for the brain, one for the bill, and two for the
fore and hind part of the head. Towards the
end of the fourth day, the auricles already
visible draw nearer to the heart than before.
The liver appears toward the fifth day. At
the end of seven hours more, the lungs and
stomach become visible; and four hours after
ward, the intestines, loins and upperjaw. At
the one hundred and twenty-fourth hour, two
ventricles are visible, and two drops of blood
instead of the single one which was seen be-
fore. The seventh day the brain begins to
have some consistency. A the one hundred
and nineteenth hour of incubation, the bill
opens, and flesh appears in the breast. In
four hours more. the breast bone is seen. In
six hours after this, the ribs appear, forming
from the back, and the bill is very visible, as
well as the gall bladder, The bill becomes
green at the end of two hundred and thirty
six hours; and, if the chicken be taken out
of its covering, it evidently moves itself. At
the two hundredth hour, the eyes appear. At
the two hundred and eighty eighth hour the
ribs are perfect. At the three hundred and
thirty-frst the spleen draws near the stom-
ach and the lungs to the chest. At the end
or three hundred and fifty-five hours the bill
frequently opens and shuts; and at the end
of the eighteenth day, the first cry of the
chicken is heard. 1t afterwards gets more
strength and grows continually, till at length
it is enabled to set itself from its confinement,
