Goats for MiIk.

In many billy portions of Europe goats
are kept to a considerable extent for
milk, and in some sections the milk is
largely manufactured into cheese, The
Toronto Globe says there seems to be set
ting in a fashion to keep goots for their
milk in that section, and comments upon
it after this humorous style: Why not?
These sweet,scented animals have a de-.
cided advantage oyer the cow kind.
They are better ioragers, and cost little
or nothing to keep, An ordinary garden
fence is nothing to an enterprising mem
Der of the Capra family, and they are not
at all particular in their choice of tender
plants. When young herbs or early let.
tuce fail, there are many varieties of
flowers and garden plants that serve fora
meal and when shut off from this deli
cate diet, a clean.washed Sunday shirt
can be disposed of with considerable
relish, And then their literary appetites
are amazing. They will discuss the merits
of the largest morning newspaper in two
minutes, by Shrewsbury clock, and di-
gest it too, for that matter. They are also
remarkably playful, and take especial
delight in butting the children for
pastime. But their browning glory is the
delicious odor they exhale. Lubin's
choicest extracts are nothing to it, for
when a goat is within forty yards of the
house one faucies himself wandering in
the groves of Araby, BY all means, cul.
tivate the goat.

and Third regiments, arrived here this
morning from Fort Monroe, and are
quartered at the arsenal.
Secretaries Thompson and M'Crary
were in consultation at the War Depart
mcnt for some time during the morning.
1t can be said that the government
authorities do not fear any demonstra-
tons against government property in
this locality.
The order for the Powhattan and
Swatara to come to Washington has
been revoked and they have been ordered
to Baltimore, where they will
arrive this evening or tomorrow morn
ng. They have on board five hundred
and sixty men fully equipped. The gov
eminent has taken steps for the protec-
ton of the a%rsenals at Pittsburg and In
dianapolis by ordering United States
troops there. Those for Pittsburg have
been ordered from Columbus, Ohio, and
those for indianapolis from st. Louis. 1t
is reported IN army circles that General
Sheridan has been ordered to Pitts
burg, taking with him troops to operate
in that city and vicinity. A cabinet
consultation of two hours duration was
held at the office Of the secretary of state
this evening. Numerous dispatches, Of
fiCial and private, relative to the riots
were read, the members severally expires

Surrender of Gen. Lee.

Much mention kas recently been made
of General Lees sword at Appomattox-
whether he rendered it to Grant or not.
only know that General Lee wasn't
so rapid about surrendering. For nearly
two hours on that memorable day officers
and men were uncertain what was to be
done. A certain officer of high rank
being asked his opinion, replied that
Gen. Lee was tten in consultation with
Grant, and that we might be ordered to
surrender or cut our way out-he could
not tell. As to the side arms of the of.
fcers, whether a compliment paid them
by Grant, or whether required by Gen.
Lee in the surrender, we know that in
coming from that consultation Genera
Lee made a short address to a large
number of officers and men, and the first
thing he told them, after wishing them a
safe return to their homes, and that their
behavior as citizens might cOmport with
their conduct as soldiers, he told them,
as if il was something, at least, hat the
officers would be allowed to retain their
side arms. 1t was then that a ragged
old private rushed up to him, the tears
flowing down his face, and exclaimed =:
"Good-by, General! God bless you p'
General Lee shook his hand. 1t was
then that a large body of men dropped
on the ground, and that's all. Officers
and men wept alike,-ReidsgiHe Times.

A Drug that Cures Bashrulness.

We should haadly expect to find in
the materia medica a cure for bashful-
ness, says the Journal of Chemistry, but
coca Tor cuca, as some prefer to call it),
which has lately attracted considerable
attention in professional circles, is said
to answer this purpose, According to
DIR. W. Tanner, whatever NAV have been
said from time to time about the effects
of cuca on the human system, this much
is certain, that it causes timid people,
who are usually i'll at ease in society, and
particularly so before strangers, to an.
pear to good advantage under these cir
%Cumstances. In other words, it cures
b%ashfulness. Its effects on depression of
spirits, he says, are what might be ex.
pected from a drug whose action is
"energy-giVing and b~ashfulness curing"
He has not seen any corresponding
mental or physical depression attending
its after effects, Its action may be largely
increased by combining it with an alkali.
1t may be that the alkali dissolves some
of its active principles that otherwise
would remain undissolved.

The Grent Will Of China.

Kalgan commands one of the passes
through the great wall of China. 1t is
there built of large stone, cemented tc-
gether with mortar. 1t tapers toward the
top, being twenty-one feet high and
twenty-eight feet wide at the foundation.
At the most important points, less than
a mile apart, square towers are erected,
built of bricks, 1t winds over the crest
of the mountains, crossing the valleys at
right angels, blocking them with fortifi-
cations. The Chinese estimate its length
to be about $500 miles, but in parts
more remote from Pekin the wall is of
inferior construction. There is nothing
but a dilapidated mud rampant, as Col
onel P~rejevalsky saw it on the borders of
ALASKAN and Kansu. 1t is said to have
been built upward Of two centuries before
