The old Hebrew calabastic legend of
Lilith, the first wife of Adam, is told
by NJ, ID. Conway, in his lecture on the
"Devll," In language which was ms
beautiful rs finished poem. She was
cold, passi0nless, splendid beauty,
with wondrous golden hair She was
created Adams equal In every respect
therefore properly enough refused to
obey him. For this she was driven
from the garden OF Eden, and Eve was
created--made TO order, so to speak
Of one OF Adams ribs. Then the gold
en-haired Lilith, jealous, enraged, PIN
Ing for her lost home In paradise, en-
tered In the form OF serpent, crept
into the garden Of Eden, aud tempted
Adam aud Eve to their destruction,
and from that day to this, n cold, pas
sionless beauty, with golden hair, has
roamed up and down the earth, snar-
Ing the sons of Adam, and destroying
them. You may always know her
dead victims, for when man has
been destroyed by the hands of Lilith,
you will always find single golden
hair wrapped tight around his lifeless
heart. To this day, many and many q
son OF Adam is still lured to death and
ruin from having the golden hair Of u
woman wrapped too tight around his
heart. That Is the moral. Has not
Lilith been revenged ?

Ways and Means TO Report FavOrably

WASHINGTON, January l0.--A SER
enade in the interest of securing offices
for Union soldiers, discharged from po-
sitions, was given by several persons,
including the President, last night
General Grant said he was glad to see
them; his heart beat ia sympathy with
theirs, and he would do all in his
power for them.
There is much speculation respecting
the craftsmanship of the Texas com
mittee, formed under the resolution
of Mr.. Schleicher. Ordinarily Mr..
Schleicher, who introduced the
resolution would be Chairman, but
in cases where investigation per-
tains to particular State, ithe usage, as
i'm the case of Louisiana, Is different.
Mr.. Saylor, of Ohio, will probably be
Chairman of the committee, and the
remaining mem bers will be announced
morrow. This work will be more
In the nature of tour of observation
than for taking testimony. The de.
parture of the committee will be timed
so as to meet the President OF Mexico,
who is reported to be on his way to the
frontier.
In the Senate, Hamilton, OF Texrs,
has introduced bill to secure the
speedy com pletion of the Texas Pacific
railway. The President sent to-day to
the Senate the following nominations:
edward C. Billings to be United States
District Judge, of Louisiana, vice Dur
rell.
Mr.. Parsons, of Kentucky, asks for
n special committee on bankruptcy TO
investigate whether the present law
REQUIRES amendments or repeal. he
will also bring in II bill to extend the
facilities of parties for the recovery OF
claims against the Internal Revenue
Bureau. for taxes enormously assessed,
applying the provisions to claims now
barred or about to be barred. His plan
is to allow claims to be presented TO
the commissioner of Internal Revenue,
and if rejected, to allow the bringing
of a suit in twelve months thereafter.
At meeting of Ways and Means
committee it was agreed TO report IA
vorably to the House the resolution
proposed in the House by the chair
man, Mr.. Morrison. providing for an
investigation by the standing commit
tees of the different branches OF the
public service. -
The Post-oflice Committee Will prob
ably soon undertake the investigation
of straw bids, and subcommittee
will be assigned to this subject.
At meeting of the Committee on
Public Lands the chairman, Mr..
TAYLOR, called attention to the condi-
ton of the public lands in the South
the benefits of the system being deni-
ed to the great body of the people by
the old war legislation, which he now
proposed to change so as to open up
the system to all classes of citizens
These views are favorably received by
the committee.

GALVESTON, December l0.--A News
special of the 10th instant, from Mata'
moras, states that the morning papers
contain kilograms from the city OF
Mexico to the effect that Cortina has
been released from arrest. Private
kilograms to his frienns in the city con-
firm the statement. 1t is probable that
he has been released with the under
standing that he will not return to the
border. His partisans, however, be-
lieve that he will speedily be back In
command of the frontier, and they are
to-day publicly celebrating his return
to liberty.
Two hundred additional infantry
have been ordered to Matamoras to

ton Of trouble at the Presidential eec'

Says An exchange on this subject:
Those who have a limited range of pas
ture and keep stock enough to crop it
close, are always at the mercy of the
weather. II there chance to be fsyoring
rains, and good season for he growth
of grass, all is well. but if, as frequently
occurs, there comes long period of
dronth, the brown fields, already close
grouped, fail entirely, having little to
protect the roots from the full power of
the sun. aud cattle suffer, the milk pals
show serious elimination, the dairy
profits shrink, and the effect of the
drouth will be ielt throughout the sea-
son for much of the pasture being thus
summer killed, the flow of milk can
hardly be Iegained.
This may be guarded against by put
ting in a small plot of earn, sorghum,
miilet, or other suitable crop for cutting
and feeding green. An acre ofcorn sown
broadcast will very soon yield sufficient
10 give great relief to the short pasture.
II is not necessary to stable the cows;
cut a good supply for them, and feed
NIGHT and morning before they leave the
yard they will eat it with relish, and
make ample returns in the milk pan and
the cburn. Even if the threatened
droutb does not come, and abundance OF
grass should grow, the soiling crop need
not be lost. Cut at the proper season,
and properly cured, it will not come
amiss next winter.

Much is yet 10 be learned in regard to
the poultry business. Its well-known
fac: that much OF our high-class poultry,
seen on exhibition, has been reared in
towns and cities. The ambitious iancier
who has only few square rods for his
breeding pens must, In order 10 make il
pay, keep only the best; and a. he has
but few birds 10 manage they are well
cared for, and hence good results, which
are visible not only in the show room,
but in many Of the yards OF our village
and country breeders. With regard 10
combining poultry I have no experience,
as my fowls (Spanish) have always en-
joyed unlimited range Therefore | do
not write upon the above subject from
experience, but merely suggest that the
runs or yards be constructed, so that
your fowls can have access TO fresh
plowed or spaded ground and to green
pasture every day. For instance, you
have eight or ten birds that Won want to
give ruuaway-say ten by thirty.
Now, space o: such dimensions would
be enjoyed far better by your fowls in
my opinion, if you would lattice of len
feet in the rear of this yard and get it
well set in clover, and hoist a little side
door and allow them fifteen minutes
each day to eat a green dinner in their
own way. While they are dining Oh
green clover they will thank you very
much if you will spade the soil of por-
ton OF their front yard, throwing up a
few worms for their desert before turn.

Training Colts.

One of the meanest habits OF young
horses is that of lying down in the har-
ness. some colts will lie down almost
as soon as you have them harnessed.
iSometimes "A blow from the whip. de-
livered low down along the side, quick
and sharp will bring them up with
spring. Ii one or two blows do not
answer, the whip is of no use; YOU will
lessly. The better way i to "beat him
at his own trade," as the saying is.
When he lies down get upon his head
and neck and make him stay iher-.
Alter five or ten minutes he will begin
to grow uneasy.
Now, there is no position which gives
man such absolute command and mas
terry over colt as wheG he has his
knee upon his neck, and his hand griped
into the bride pieces. Thus situated
man is absolutely master of the sltua-
tion; aud we have often thought that it
was very good idea TO have a colt OF
rather vicious temper lie down once, In
order that he might learn how power
less he is in the hands OF man.
When colt gives up, the man at his
head will easily perceive it. The hot
blaze and mad glitter will leave the eye;
the muscles viii relax their tension; the
neck will become limp; and the whole
body, losing its rigidity, will he along
the earth as if it had no thought OF ris-
lug, and would never rise This is the
stage of exhaustion and submission.
The colts rampant spirit is cowei and
his pride humbled. His conceit Is TAX
en- out of him. lie has been beaten bv
his own weapons and knows it. He
will never trouble YOU again in that
way. As 10 the time ii takes 10 bring
colt to this conviction. there is no Nrc-
else limit. Some colts will give it up
in twenty minutes, some in sixty; and
we have known colts to hang out for
three hours. But, whether it takes
longer or shorter, carry the thing
through. Believe rs, You cannot spend
Your time beiter.-Golden Rule.
