THE TRUFFLE Hoo CANyAss.-The
trulile is dainty that all epcureaus
cherish. 1t is tuber that grow ben, h
the soil. 1t has no power OF coming to
the surface. Ifnot found it rots away.
A hog is trained to root into the SOL and
dig it out. For this service the hog is
rewarded with handful OF acorns. The
trufle hog earns immunity ard renown
with its nose, We have him in our POI
itics, and he never had 30 much leputa-
ton as now. Washington seems to be II
vast Provencal forest, with a hundred
truiile hogs running hither and thilher,
digging the earth with their snouts, eager
to rake up some scandal that may give
favor to the campaign. In the absence
of a better designation we propose that
the canvass Of 1876 shall be known as the
Campaign Of tho Trufile Hogs.-NeV

THE CENTENNIAL While
the great interest attaching to the Cen
tennia Exhibition usually looks 20 the
proceedings on Independence Day, the
Exhibition itself will begin long before
and continue long after that time. The
formal opening took place last Wednes-
day and the daily papers received tonight
will doubtless give full details OF the open
ing ceremonies. Probably the best time
to select for attending the Exhibition will
be Just before and alter the Fourth, at
which time the display will be fullest.
The foreign departments are said to be
prepared already and will present u cred
table appearance from the start. The
same cannot be said however OF the eXhi
bition OF home industries, many OF the
States and notably those OF the Pacific
Slope being very much behind in gettlH z
their articles for exhibition together aud
in readiness. We do not question how
ever, but Il visitor to the Exhibition will
be we'll repaid at any time alter the
opening, and those who can spare time
and money for the journey will nev0l
regret having made it.

A SoRkowFUL SToRY.-A young wo-
man of Mnrsballtown has been sent to the
insane asylum. She is only twenty-five
years of age, and was married and dl-
vorced. Her husband married a second
wife and to him was given the charge OF
her infant chld. This was great grlef
to her, and naturally she fell into gloomy
forebodings concerning the treatment her
little one received at the hands Of the new
wife, and when she learned that 1t had
been scalded severely, she broke down all
opposition and gained permission to see
and nurse her child and though all was
done that'hum skill could do. the little
sufferer soon died and the agoniz ed mother
went her way only 80 60 insane over hef

"The way they make hay in Norway will
be new TO your farmer readers. The grass
is hung up on poles TO dry, and have
never seen suoh bright oolored hay in my
life. 1t is almost as bright . green as
when growing. In some fields you see
strings Of fences few rods long which
begin and end nowhere. These lines Of
fence are about as wide apart rs n New
England farmer makes his winrows. On
these fences the grass is hung till the wind
and sun can cure ii. The sun does not
burn IL. That is one way, and perhaps
the most common. The other way Is TO
plant posts In The fields, twelve feet or so
apart, and In those posts insert pegs about
one foot asundsr. On these peg, poles are
laid. and on them the grass 10 hung just As
we used to dry paper At tho mills down
