THE HORSES AND THE HEAr.-EditorS
Baltimore Sun: "Subscriber" says put q
wet sponge on the horses head. Now, II
you put wet sponge on a horse 8 head it
will be almost like putting hot water on his
head; for in less than ten minutes after the
sponge is wet it will become hot with such
q hot sun pouring down ON 1T as we have
had lately. Consequently he suffers more
with than without it. lawe been handling
horses for ten years and better, and find the
best way to save the horse In hot weather is
to let him take his time, and when you get
into shady place, if you have long drive
or haul to make, let him take rest. When
you have an opportunity sponge his mouth
out; but do not wet his head unless you
intend keeping him in the shade, for the
water will become hot, and the poor brute
will suffer more than if you had not wet his
head. AS for wetting his legs, do not think
of such thing unless you intend driving
on at the same quit unit, the legs are well
dried M you did before wetting them; for
il the legs are wet when he is warm, or If
you let him stand after wetting them, you
will be very apt to founder him, and then
YOU had as well knock him in the head, for
he will not be able to stand half the work rs
before. ~.

Mr.. y. Keller, No. ia Ann street, Balti-
more, has very good-natured cat, who is
the proud mother OF six kittens. The cat
went out for promenade on the top OF
fence, and found q stray kitten, which she
brought in to her abode, and placed with
her own litter. A neighbor possessed three
young orphan pups, whose nourishing sup
plies had been cut off by DEATH The little
pups were added to the family Of the ma
ternal cat. Mr. Keller writes that any one
who is 50 inclined may now come to his place
and witness the performance OF the three
pups and seven kittens tugging at the ma
ternal fount Of the generous and charitable
cat.
Mr. Spurgeon, in letter to the Boston
Watchmda, refers to the report Of his con-

Guiding passage Of his letter is as follows ::

another and yet more glorious land than
yours. / am still weak, but free from my
complaint. All goes on gloriously with the
Tabernacle and its works, sfor the Lord is
our helper" 49,

OF his recovery.
