Cattle-Slaughtering by Dynamite.

An interesting experiment was made last
week at a se-slaughtering establishment ut
Dudley, with the view Of testing new system
eff Strengthening cattle by means of dynamite,
and thus putting them out Of existence more
speedily and with less suffering than by the
ordinary pole-aXe. Two large powerful horses
and donkey disabled for work. were ranged
in line about half yard apart under shed
the donkey being placed in the center. A
small primer of dynamite, with an electric fuse
attached, was then placed on each OF their fore
heads and fastened in position by piece OF
string under the jaw. The wires were then
coupled up in crcait and attached to the cleo
trio machine, which stood about five yards III
front The handle Of the machine being then
turned an electric current was discharged
which exploded three charges simultaneously
and the animals instantly fell dead without {
struggle The whole affair was over in two
minutes, and the experiment appears to have
been a perfect success. BY this means, it Is
stated, any number, even hundred or more
cattle, may be instantly killed by the SAINT
current of electricity. There cannot be doub
that the present system Of slaughtcring eattl(
is open to the charge of being cruel and bar
barous, and the slightest want of skill on the
part of the slaughterer often subjects the un
happy beasts to horrible torture. Any attempt
to extinguish life painlessly is a step in til,
right direction, not only as regards cattle bu
also as regards criminals sentenced to capita
punishment, whose case equally deserves con
sideration-PM Man gazette, JH,y %.

Inherited Ingratitude.
From the Middletown q. Y

FROM tue MiduletpWn ~ ~ .h'sus.I
On one of the best farms in Orange county,
located within few miles OF Miduicto"h'
there lived a farmer who came into posses
sion of his property, ii is said by dcfrauding
his aged father out of it, He induced the
old gentleman 10 deed the homestead and
farm over to him, representing that he would
be we'll taken care of during his declining
wears and that were the property in his own
name he would take more interest in It, No
sooner was the deed made out and delivered
than the son began series OF petty persecu-
tons against his father, compelling him to
perform duties about the farm everlasting
his strength; excluding him from the family
table, and dealing out TO him in Il gingerly
manner sustenance hardly sufficient to keep
soul and body together These acts OF cruelty
were carried to such an extent that the broken
hearted father was compelled to leave the roof
he had himself erected, and throw himself
upon the charity of the world-it one time,
we believe becoming an inmate Of the county
poorhouse. Things went on this way lor
some years, the son apparently prosperlhs
and accumulating quite large share o, lhls
worlds goods He became suspected OF sev-
eral acts of dishonesty in dealing win ms
neighbors, and lost no opportunity 70 %, etlicll
himself at the expense OF others 10 such
an extent did he carry his parsimonlous
practices that at last he cndeavoreu 10 escape
the payment of some of his just dcD's oy
secretly conveying his property 10 ms son,
little thinking that his own son would be as
he had been to his father He thus success,
fully evaded the payment of his debts, but
when he attempted to continue control OF the
farm an unexpected obstacle presented Itself
the son proclaimed himself sole owner and re-
fused to follow out his directions, or allow
him in any way to control the proceeds Dis
nutes and determinations followed, until the
son finally ordered the father of premises and
refused to contribute to his support. The up
shot of the whole affair is that the grand
father is now reinsated IN the old armchair
in the family circle, and will be tenderly
cared for during the remainder Of his natural
life, while his son is employed as "A farm Ia
borer in distant part Of the country. In
gratitude, in every second generation, II no
doubt hereditary in the family, and it Will be
curious to observe what the present owner :
son will do if he gets chance.

Solicitors journal as recent occurrence in
the Court of Queens Bench. Could such a
thing have occurred in an American court:
Mr. Wilberforce appeared for the plaintiff,
Ii was, he said, demurrer to two paragraphs
in the defendants statement of defence. The
action was for libel, and the statement OF claim
alleged that the plaintiff was formerly mem

defendant was also Il member. The statement
set out letter written and published by the
defendant about the unsuccessful election tc

tium have been observed 10 give off light on

Of sparks. sometimes in flashes. and again in a
steady though feeble glow Certain species OF
fungi particularly those growing in low,
dark and damp places, rs in mines, emit light
from all their parts, but chiefly from their

light is probably in part dueto the conversion
Of oxygen into carbonic acid, which i, actively

Cows Holding Up Their MIX.

Cows have no more control of the matter than
We have when we SneeZc. Some cows are
more nervous than others and in consequence
more easily excited. If they are worried by
dogs, or chased by boys before being MIXED.
it will be observed that they are fractions and
tidgety. and will not let their milk down.
This is not their fault. They are suffering
from natural nervous CAUSES and it is not that
they are unwilling to give up their milk, but
in fact the milk forming process in the COW is
temporarily disturbed, and they have no milk

where perfectly fresh COWS have ceased TO give

The friends of Mrs. Maria Payson, of
Rutland, Vermont, who was immured
in an insane asylum some weeks ago at
the instigation of Gen. H. H. Baxter,
have finally succeeded in getting her
out on a writ of habeds corpus. She
had been arrested on complaint of Susie
Ryan for alleged slander in charging
her with criminal intimacy with Cen
eral Baxter. That gentleman was not
anxious to have the matter pressed, and
through his influence, and that of
money, Mrs. Payson was adjuged in
sane by the selectmen and sent to the
asylum. Her sanity is said to be un-
questionable, and the manner of pro-
ceeding is so contrary to law that trou-
BILE is likely to grow out of it. Mrs.
Payson states that while in the Jail at
Rutland awaiting the first examination,
she was threatened and beaten by the
jailer, and terrified into a consent to be
sent to the asylum.

Mrs. Sarah Hale, the veteran editor
and able writer, will soon celebrate the
fftieth anniversary of her editorial life.
An erroneous statement that she was
now only eighty-twO years old has been
going the rounds, which we wish to cor
rect by saying that we are personally
acquainted with her, and know her to
be nearly eighty-nine. And yet her in
tellect is strong aud clear, and her in
terest in human affairs generous and
lively, and her heart as warm and fresh
as in her palmiest days. She is in good
health, aud is so sprightly and enter
tanning in conversation that an hour
spent in her parlor is real luxury-a
literary feast. She lives with her daugh-
ter, Mrs. DR.. Hunter, and she often re-
marks playfully of her, "My daughter
is as careful of me as if were a choice
bit of china or glassware, easily broken"
In her presence one fOrgets that she is
almost ninety till she herself reminds US
that she is waiting for the angels. She
is constant student of the Bible and
an indefatigable worker. Some of her
best poems and books have been writ
ten since she was eighty. We never go
into her presence without gathering
fresh inspiration for higher and nobler

The cardinal mistake which irrational
advocates of wOman's rights have made
is in libeling their actual intention by
an apparent pretense that woman in the
professions is to be something less of a
woman and little more of a man. The
women who have successfully entered
the professions of law, medicine, and
journalism, and those who, like Mrs
Livermore, carry finer culture than
many men into the pulpit, are the best
answer to the charge so fiippantly made
that a woman ceases to be feminine
when she turns her brain to account in
a practical, honorable, and capable way.
The vulgar absurdity that she is "wom-
anly" who darIs stockings, scrubs
floors, and carries garbage; and she is
"wOmanly" who devotes herself to gos-
sip, fashion, dissipation, and vice; while
she is not "womanly" who becomes a
physician, a lawyer, journalist, a
minister, turks only in heads too stupid
to understand their own better instincts,
or too base to value in woman that
which is dearest in her to man and
most esteemed in her own eyes-the
power to win and to keep mans love
| through his respect for her and her re-
spect for herself There is no lasting
love without respect; and, looking over
the face of society, who are the happiest
mates? Whose are the attractive
| homes? What class of women make,
! by universal consent, the tenderest and
most faithful wives, the devoted and
efficient mothers? The women between
whom and their husbands there is the
closest bond of intellectual sympathy

WITHOUT A NEwSPAPER.-Noth
presents a sadder commentary upon the
present condition of society than the
large number of families, both in town
and country, but more especially in the
latter, that subscribe to no paper of any
kind. Hundreds and thousands of fam
lilies are thus growing up utterly ignOr-
ant of what is transpiring in the world
around them-ignOraut of the mighty
events of the day. But who can tell the
vast amount of injury that is being in
dicted on the rising generation-thOse
who are to take our place in the busy
world at no distant day-growing up
without any knowledge of the present,
or any study of the past, this ignorance
too, being imbued into them by the
sanction of those who should, aud doubt
less do, know better, did they only
think of the injurious effects of their in
sane course. Let the head of every
family think of this, and place in the
hands of those for whom he is RESPONSE
ble the means of acquiring some knowl-
edge of the moving panorama in which
we act our different parts.
