RAISING AND PICKING
GEESE.

In q late number Of your valuable
paper, young farmer wants the adj
vice and experience Of some person
who has had experience in raising
and picking geese. | am now nearly
sixty years old, and have raised and
picked geese ever since | was large
enough to hold a goose in my lap. |
will give you the results Of my eX'
per!ence. In the first place | try to
keep my flock as near eaqual as pos
siblc Gas many ganders as geese so
that they will mate equal in the
spring. Geese are not like other
fowls; every gander has his own
mate, although sometimes one gonder
will have two geese, and one goose
will have two gandors. Geese are
very easily raised, requiring but lit
tie attention. After the goslings are
week old, feed them on corn-meal
dough, with little salt in it, until
they can eat young grass. Care should
be taken to shelter them from hard
rains, as they are easily drowned
previous 10 the time they begin to
feather. They want nothing but
grass and water in the summer. Feed
grain in winter, and they are all
right. In the picking process, pick
about every seven weeks. if the feath-
ers are ripe, which can be told by
catching one and plucking a few
feathers from it ; if the quill Of the
feather is clear, they are ripe; if the
quill is full Of blood, they are not
ripe. Pick nearly clean in warm
weather, but in winter not so close.
Care should be taken to give them
warm shelter in winter after picking.
Pick all the small feathers and leave
all the large ones, except tour or five
under each wing, which must be
plucked, or the wings will drop. The
Weld of feathers will be about one
quarter Of a pound to the goose each
picking, when full feathered,-Cor

The Man Who Swallowed a Fork.

Some of my readers may remember
PhOnaa1ae q la t0urchette, or the young man
who swallowed fork, and they may be
glad to hear further of this singular case.
We have had two of the kind-the Italian,
Cipriana, and the young clerk, Lesuer.
Nearly two years ago he was at the table
with some comrades, who were conversing
about the Indian iugglers and their trick
of swallowing a sword. Lesuer claimed
that it was very simple, and, to prove his
assertion, took fork by the tines and
pushed it down his throat. A spasmodic
contraction of the organs took 1t from his
fingers and carried it down the passage
into the stomach For long time efforts
were made to reach the fork by the mouth,
but it was finally ascertained to be in his
stomach, and Lesuer was given up for
lost. He was shown at clinical lectures,
and then went into the country. Areport
came that he was dead, and / believe that
| published it as fact. But as Lesuer
did not fail in health, and continued
strong and hearty for over year, some
of the doctors thought that the fork could
be removed. Baron Larrey and Drs.
Liable, Lepere and Prof, Gosselin under
took the operati0n-begun some weeks
ago. They began by burning down slow
" to the stomach with caustic, and de-
termining an adhesion Of the coat of the
stomach with the outer edges Of the hole
thus made with the cOrrosives. When
this adhesion was complete, an incision
was made in the stomach and the fork
drawn out with forceps. It was as black
as ink, but not worn to any extent. Lee
suer is now regarded out OF danger

The Sentiment of Silver.

SCARCELY any Of the youth now in the
public schools can remember when this
silver change, whose chink is now return
ing, went out of circulation Young
women of age, even, can hardly be eX-
pected to remember it, and yet it does not
seem long ago to those who do remember
the old jingle We were well into the
suspended in December, 1851, gold did
not have much premium till the summer
of the following year. If the historic
backbone Of the rebellion" had been
broken by the capture of Fort Donelson,
as we all thought it had, the suspension
Of specie payments never would have
meant much to the great mass of the peo-
pie. But the backbone Of the rebellion
was apparently Of Whalebone; the great
war went on, specie and little else went
to Europe to pay for imports, the Treas
ury began to print money, and we con-
graduated ourselves on the remarkable
quotation of our bonds at home. Then
the silver money disappeared, and resort
was had to all sorts Of eXpedients to make
change. Merchants issued shinplasters
bearing their own names, and postage
stamps were stuck together ruinously and
passed about; later, postage stamps were
framed in brass and glazed with isinglass,
and other ingenious devices were resorted
to, from which we were finally relieved
by the appearance of &C fractional cur
rency" For some reason, scrip, an old
and then little-used word, came into par
lance as The designation of this money,
and this new Specification is likely to
stick in the literature of the epoch
Everybodys first impression is that the
scrip is the lightest, the handiest, the
cheapest to send about and, in general,
the most satisfactory. But, in point Of
cost, the advantage is certainly with sill
yer, for the same reason that a linen col
lar, for a person who cares to be tidy, is
cheaper than paper collars. The silver
coin costs more at first, but afterWard re-
quires little outlay for renewal, the loss
from abrasion beiEg slight; whereas, scrip
has to be reprinted often, and at no small
expense. The coin, moreover, is whole
some, and does not suggest the smallpox.
All thrifty sentiments respond best 10
the money that rings. What lad ever be-
came an A. t. Stewart on the stimulus of
a greasy shinplaster? 1t was the big sill
yer dollars of half a century ago that used
to be hung up for prizes. Vanderbilt
must have whet his youthful wits by the
clash of 'Mexicans." There will be a
genuine satisfaction at heart over the per-
manent return Of the reality, for which
we have so long accepted the symbols
Double symbols they have been, denoting
not only value but in0alidation, and their
departure may be looked upon as the
hopeful forerunner of the re-establishment
Of the whole financial system on real valuo
and by the standard of the d.-oOTE'lg
field (NaSs.) Republican. @.
