Farming VS.. Profession.

The Maine Mirror gives the testimony
of New Hampshire boy, now resident
of Wisconsin, a fine scholar, graduate
of Dartmouth, and law student in Mer-
rimac county, who, just previous
to his admission to the bar, took a sew
ere cold, which rendered him very deaf,
and no medical skill was able to restore
his hearing. The affection. compelled
him to give up his chosen profession,
and he went West very much broken
down in spirits. For ten years he has
been farming, cultivating about 200 acres
of prairie land, as he expressed it, MAX
ing good living, and sailing down
something every year. And he declares
that if, knowing what he now knows,
he was to begin his active life
over again, he would do just as
he was compelled to do so I'M
willingly ten years ago; thai is, he would
throw aside his profession, and settle
down upon farm. Said he, there
isn't much glory on farm, but
you get a good, sure living. You are
your own master; you can't be starved

Gen. Sherman's Views.

Gen. Sherman was before the House
Military Committee the other day, and
questioned concerning the proposition
to increase cavalry regiments for opera
lions against the Sioux. The General
favored the bill and expressed an opin-
ion that the present force would be able
to whip the Indians if the latter kept
together, but in case they separated the
soldiers would be compelled to do the
same, and there might be danger OF
some of the detacLments being over
come by superior force of Indians con-
centrating against them. He then de-
tailed the strength of the army and the
present situation of the various regl-
ments. In answer to the inquiry
whether the troops could be spared from
the Sorth to reinforce the army in the
Indian country, Mr.. Sherman said: SCI
am compelled to answer that they can
not be spared, because those who are
intrusted with power judge their pres
ence necessary. That decision is to me
sacred and final, and governs me-"
Terry-You do not, however, say that
it is your Judgments
Gen. Sherman-It is hardly right to
ask a soldier for an opinion behind his
duty. We ought not to form an opin-
ion.
The Chairman-What is the strength
of Crooks and Terry's commands?
Gen. ST. think they amount to 2, SOC
men each.
Mr.. Williams Are you not impressed
with the idea that the Indians are break
ing up?
Gen. ST. think they are scattering
now. Crook and Terry are both ex
tremely careful, prudent, cautious men,
and will not attack these Indians in po
sition until they can give them tire
.mendous whipping.

COMBUSTION Of a Drunkard.

An inhabitant of Fontenay Bots
one of the most charming little SUBURBS
of Paris, has recently departed this life
under circumstances which merit the at
tention of everybody. but more partic
ularly of the scientific and medical world
The man in question had long been
confirmed drunkard, and i1abibed, on an
average, quart and half of brandy
per diem. Conscious of the degradation
of his besetting vice, he kept aloof from
his family, and at times shut himself up
in his room for days together, in order
to pursue his devotion to Bacchus IN
molested by the reproach or remon-
STRANGE of the infitlel.
He had frequently been forced to
abandon the brandy bottle by the ap-
preach of delirium tremens, but he was
no sooner cured by the doctors than he
returned to his favorite love. At length
he was seized with an irresistible desire
to destroy himself, which the medical
sages call the nostalgia" of alcohols.
On Easter Sunday he shut himself up
again; but, remaining secluded longer
than usual, the neighbors broke open
his door. An overpowering smell OF
spirits struck them on entering the
room, and on looking on the bed, there
lay the body of the man reduced to
cinders The doctors say that spontane'
GUS combustion must have taken place
shortly after the drunkard lay down to
die.
