HORSE SENSE. 1.-The Reveille, IN trut

HORSE SENsE.-The Reveile, N truthful
mood, does justice to a sagacious horse in
the following Yesterday afternoon two
loose horses, let out of their stable for e-er-
else, came charging down the steep grade of
Ceder street at the top of their speed. Near
the corner of Union street a number of chi
dren were playing, one of them-a little girl
about five years of age-being directly in
the track of the foremost horse The animal
was almost upon the child before it perceived
her and it seemed inevitable that the little
thing must be run down but just as the
horse reached her, it checked its couse so
suddenly as to throw it back on its
launches then it bowed its head and nosed
the little one for moment and then trotted
down the bill to its stable.

An OPINION OF DAVID Communicable
following critique, in the handwriting of
Mohammedan gentleman, the late owner of
the volume, was found on the last page ofa
copy of "David Copperfeld -: " am sur
prised that this books author being the COM
poser of many other novels, has got such a
style without taste. Though its style is very
regularly made, yet the mind of the reader is
never willing to see even page thoroughly:
1t seems to me that its author was not an
ineligible, Those difficulties which l suf-
fered during the course of the study of this
idle book l can't express them. Sometimes
the wretched author tries to write and de
liver some Grafton, yet suddenly he falls in a
pit of dullness In short, this book is quite
an unpleasing to the heart of the glowing
heart Let the reader see and confess my
observation IS. S. r"

sheep for Enriching Land.

The " National Live Stock journal"
in speaking of the value of sheep for
enriching land, says:
"Some fifty years ago Anderson said,
'One thousand sheep folded on an acre
of ground one day would manure it
sufficiently to feed one thousand and
one sheep; SO that by this process land
which the first year can feed only one
thousand sheep, may the next year, as
result OF their own droppings, feed
thirteen hundred and sixty-Gve.'
Sprengel allowed that the manure
of fourteen hundred sheep for one day
is equal to manuring highly one acre
of land, which is about four sheep per
year Mechia, still more recent au-
thority, estimates that fifteen hundred
sheep folded on an acre of land for
twenty-four hours, or one hundred
sheep for fifteen days, would manure
the land sufficiently to carry it through
four years rotation. In the United
States much less attention has been
paid to this item of profit to be derived
from hocks. Only upon the poorer
land, and there only from the excep-
tion lily few close-observing and calcu-
lating men, do we meet with any notice
of it at all Not so in England and
France, where the necessities imposed
by the density of population and conse-
quent enhanced value of the land, COM
pei recognition of every minutia of
profit by the cultivator of the soil

Of England to-day her agriculture
would be failure. Their value to
English agriculture is to be found in
their manure. Though not of them
selves profitable, they make it possible
for other branches of agricultural in
dustry to become SO.
Prof. Coleman of the Agricultural
College at Cirencester once said, 1t is
not difficult to show that sheep alone,
apart from their influence on the corn
crops, will not pay a living profit after
all the expenses of growing the crops
are considered

industry of France cannot dispense

Science has lately made the gum
washing from fleeces at the factories

Mr.. Hayes tells us that the French
chemists, NM. Maumone and Rogelet,
have established very recently at the
great seats of the wooden manufacture
in France, as at Rheims and Elbeuf,
factories for putting the new industry
which they have created into practical
operation. They induce the wooden
manufacturers to preserve and sell to
them the solutions of yolk obtained by
the washing of the raw feeces in cold
water, and pay such price as encour-
ages the manufactures to wash their
wool methodically, so as to enrich the
same water with the yolk of a number
of feeces. These scourings the chem

A Bear-faced Fraud.

An artist has recently published in q
French journal an account of his Swiss
sketching-tour. On q beautiful after.
noon in June. of the present year. he
left his hotel in Intsrlaken. went out
alone with his camp stool and easel,
and strayed as far as the foot Of the
Jungfrsu. As he was about to begin
his sketch, he was startled by seeing. a
few yards in front of him. a huge bear.
that growled ferociously.
He seized x.chsmbered revolver,
and levcled it at the beast, but before
he could fire, heard the words. HALT

revolver close to the nose Of the pre-
tended beast. he demanded, What dost
thou in this accursed costume -
The rogue in the bears skin replied
that he Was merely earning his living.
lie was driver by profession, but the
season had been very bad one, and he
was Obliged to take another trade. lie
had entered into compact with num-
ber Of guides to clothe himself in a
bears skin. (which | can assure yeu is

denly show myself. The foreigner ID
ready to die with fright, but the cour-
ageous guide rushes at me and drives
me away, naturally receiving very
handsome douceur for his bravery in
risking his own life in order to preserve
that of his employer"
In the evening the bear and the guide
generally met at an inn and divided
the spoil. The bear pleaded SO piteous-
ly. that the artist did not have the
heart to have him arrested.
