a Dog Story.

Dog stories are plentiful enough, but
always interesting, aud l may add an
uncommon one to the list. A Few even-
lngs since was ina Gale, when large
st. Bernard dog entered, and went from
table to table as ii greeting his friends.
He had a soft, sympathetic eye, o kindly
wag oil the tail, and graceful way OF
tossing his head at you as il in passing
The compliments Of the day. l remarked
to n friend that my settlers were more
exclusive, and would not notice u ma
jority OF people except in q disdainlul
way, when he told me that this bon
homie and democratic nature was char
aoteristic OF the st. Bernard race.
They take to everybody. This has
been shown by a famous suit just over
at Geneva. Aa inn-keeper in the Cans
ton OF Vaud raised two St. Bernard pup
pies, twins, and as like as two peas.
They were superb creatures, yellow anu
white and black, and striped like tigers.
One OF the pups was named "Tiger," the
other "Lion." One was sold to the pro-
prietor Of the Hotel Byron, at Chiffon;
The second to an inn-kesper OF Geneva.
But the first made SO much noise about
the Hotel Byron that the guests COM
planned, and the proprietor gave his dog
to friend in Geneva, q mafiufaetureI
OF verm0uth.
Tiger and Lien wero. thus inhabItants
OF the same city; both were OF independ-
ent dispositions, and beth left their DOM
iciis at about the same time, and took TO
rowing. Both masters searched for their
dogs, and after a time Tiger or Lion was
lennd and brought to the manufacturer
Of vermouth. A man rushed OF to the
inn-kssper to cay that the dog he
mourned was then at the vermoptE fac
tory, ana he went at once TO claim him.
Tbsn followed discussions as to
whether this was Tiger or Lion, then
quarrsis, then a charge oil robbsiy en-
lered against the yerniouth man. When
the case came iHto Court both men
seemed 70 be right, and both were noted
as good citizens, and men Of honor and
probity. The Judge was perplexed, but
mindful OF the judgment OF solomon, or
dsred the dog TO appear in Court. TAe
sppp0sition WAS that be would recog,
ni%e his masters and the persons were
arranged in the most careful way for the
entry OF the witness.
Tiger o.. .Ai0n. u splendid beast, some
three teet in height, entered the court
room with majesty, went up the aisle as
if quite ut home, smiled at one OF the
parLies 10 the suit and then upon the
other, showing NO particular fondness
for either; then laid his nose familiarly
upon the arm OF tho clerk, into whose
honest taoe he looked for . moment;
then wagged his tail ut the Judge, and
walked over TO pass the compliments Of

RECENT developments, in relation to

It appears that this credit mobilier oil

this pile was divided into twenty-four

Now it happens that one of these shares
went to an Ohio Senator, named JOHN
SHERMAN, who had the caution to take
it in the name Of Cooke, in order to make
the record appear well. AS this one
share so taken by JOHN SHERMAN
amounted to $5.375, 900 it was worth
taking. Perhaps committee of inyesti-

Once calmly resigned to rest, ready for

through his brain. He knew il he did not
catch them then, they would vanish
never TO return; so up ne gets, strikes u
light, and makes his nocturnal notes.
One nighs the philosopher had risen
from his bed, and Was cropping rouna

snapped away tue teeth, trying 10 light

Renewing Strawberry Beds.

Agood way to rene " an old strawberry
bed, Is to cut out with hoe, as soon as
the plants have done fruitlng, enough
plants to leave them growing about
three feet apart. Then take fork--a
potato fork is best--and loosen up the
ground all over the bed, breaking the
Jumps, anu leaving 1t soft and SIN Goth
aud very soon the runners will grow
out and ceyer the ground. Sometimes
it is best to guide the runners to
vacant places, and set them, by
laking d garden trowel, and GOV:
ering them at the joints with earth, first
sinking them about nalf an inch below
tue surface OF the soil. In the fail, the
Oed will probably contain more plants
than ought to grow in land they should
be thinned out to stand about eight
inches apart, or further il you choose.
Some varieties bear well when gro wing
close and some do not. The rule is gen
orally not to allow the plants to bear
over two years before renewing in this
way, so that you can get crop OF fruit
every season on the same bed.-[Tifiin

THH latest diligence from Europe is
Sfa startling character. Political affairs
In connection with the Turkish sitllation
beam to be drifting into complications
more and more serious every day. The
death Of the ex-Sultan by his own hand
WILL give rise to much speculation. AS
Sassination is a well known method OF
Kidding the State OF Troublesome poltt-
lcal personages. But in the present in
Stance official manifestoes other than
Turkish certify to the suicide. We
think there can be no doubt, as intima-
ted in these columns heretofore. that the
Rx-Sultan Was deranged, and on that
noccunt was depossd; and now has, i'm
his insanity, taken his own life.
The position England is taking in be-
hall Of Turkey as against the Christian
SUBJECTS of the Sultan in Europe is
rather unexpected; and the conse-
quenees may be mementous. In this she
Will certainly have the cooperation Of
Austria and probably Of other Western
Powers. The project of inducing Eng
land to cooperate with Russia in favor
Of the insurgent Provinces, by holding
out the diadem Of the new
Slavic monarchy 10 the Duke OF
Rdinburgh, will hardly succeed. Eng
land dislikes Turkey, but she both hates
and fears Russia as her political and
commercial rival. The whole matter
resolves itself into the everlasting
"Eastern Question:" which is itself re-
solved into the question as to who shall
possess Constaninople. And, to Eng
land, that Is a question 81 far more con.
sequence than the sovereignty of the in
surgent Provinces. And il may be safely
presumed that England will follow her
substantial commercial interests rather
taan the phantom of dynastic ambition.
Consequently We shall probably once
more see England and Russia pitted
against each other on the plains Of the
lower Danube. But possibly some new
diplomatic combination may postpone
the evil day, and keep Europe free from
the Turkish complications. The next
news may be conclusive OF peace or war.
