THERE is new tide of emigration to
Florida, both from the North and
abroad. Prominent European capital
lists have been negotiating for some time
and at last successfully, with the land
commissioners of the State for S8,OOO,-
600 worth of orange lands. They in
tend to bring into the State 1900 or 81
600 hardy farmers from England, Ger
many, France and Italy.

ON the recent occasion O the Emper-

of Ratibor and Hohenlohe presented an
armchair to him, upon which they had
embroidered with their own hands so
full-blown cornf1owers-as many bios
SONS as the Kaiser counts years-and a
number of buds, symbolical of the years
to come, which Germany wishes may be
added to his life. The Empress, Crown

the most costly and tasteful description.

CURED, on Friday night, most wonder
full phenomenon. The earth, for about
forty acres, became suddenly depressed,
sinking fully thirty feet, and trees on the
margin tumbled into the chasm. When
there, on Saturday evening, very dis
tinct rumbling noise could be heard at
intervals; whilst in the center of the
cave flashes of light sprang up to a
height of fifteen or twenty feet. A sui
phurous odor is SO strong on the margin
of the chasm that it is approached with
difficulty, and is perceptible at mile
from the spot. I recently noticed a
change in the Gulf Stream. 1t sets in
with a powerful current through the

whipping Hor.ss.

Human nature and brute nature are
much more alike than people generally
imagine, and If we were TO apply the same
general rules in the government of animals
which aetuate US in the control of children
and grown persons, our success would be
far more agreeable, to all concerned. II
we desire hayward child to do thus and
so, we DO not take a raw-hide and lash
him, but we simply indicate our wishes in
an intelligent manner, and point out the
reason why certain proclivities must not
be INDUCED in. As soon as the child
clearly understands, ten to one il is ready
to obey. 1t is precisely the same with
colts and horses, only as we cannot indicate
plainly by words what we desire, We should
resort to ingenious but always patient man
agement The whips the parent of stub
borness in high spirited animal, while
gentleness will win obedience, and, at the
same time, attach the animal to US.
1t is the easiest thing imaginable to win
the affection Of animals, and especially Of
horses. Anappls, q potato, or few Jumps
Of sugar given from the hnnd, nov and
then, will cause the horse to prick up his
ears at the sound Of sis cw.er's footStep,
not with fear but with low, whinnying
note Of pleasure. The confidence of the
noble beast thus gained. will lead him to
obey the slightest intelligent tone of voice
or Indication Of the bit There is no such
thing as baulkiness to be found in horse
thus treated; he shows desire to obey,
whereas few lashes Of the whip, smartly
applied, if he be horse worth having, will
arouse ia him a spirit liberalization and
stubbornness that may cost the owner
hours of trouble, and possibly danger to
life and limb. Horses are made gentle by
kindness. They sbelieys'' in the master
they love, and his voice win calm them in
a moment Of fear or induce them to strug-
gle Toward e5en when oyerladen, and
when whip would be sure to bring them
to stubborn standstill.
No man knows the true value Of the
horse until he has won his regard and con
tidenee, as it were. The whip will never
do it. A kind hand and gentle voice WI
act like magic; thus we have knownwomen
who could handle and drive horses that
would almost inevitably show some vicious
traits in the hands of male driver
These facts apply especially to the rearing
and training of young colts, something
which the Arabs understand better thar
we do. They do not "break" their colts

Dealing with Farm Hands.

After the bargain has been made, there
are other points which are important
rhe man has contracted to do certain
things for certain amount Of money; if
he does less, we expect to lessen his pay j;
but il he does more do we increase il? If
Ee quits work half an hour or even an hour
before shutdown, it is often the case that
reduction is made from his pay; but if he
works after shutdown, ought we not by the
same rule to pay extra for it2 1t is often
she case that for special causcs--to finish
up piece Of ploughing, so as not to need
to bring up and harness the horses next
day-to bring an extra load or two Of hay
in at might've ask and receive an hour
or two Of extra work. Is not this as much
upon our side Of the bargain as the loss Of
time was on his. If it is fairly understood
that in return for such favors the man may
have half or whole day as leisure
time, it will be far from lost, and will in
crease his willingness TO do 50 again either
for you or his next employer. A man
who win wait at the "barn end Of the
furrow because he cannot get clear around
again before shutdown may be set down as
worth three dollars per month less than
one who does NOT, this example is the key
to his whole character IF we are moro
exact and careful on these points we should
see marked fmproyement in our farm
hands.--Cor. Country Gentleman.,

SELL.-0ne of our exchanges gives the
following bit Of gratuitous advice to our
farmers
We notice that the old trick Of holding
on to the wheat for higher prices is again in
vogue among our farmers. They are tel
ling fabulous stories Of an expected general
European war, when wheat shall be twice
its present price and when every farmer
who now holds on to his wheat shall grow
immensely rich It is all nonsense now
Is the time to self The prices are good !;
il you hold on TO your wheat you not only
risk decline in the price, but you lose
the interest on the value which i repre-
SCENTS every day that you hold it. Twill
require much higher price toco1npensate
you for this loss There win be no gen.
eral European war, aud IL there were it
would not have the supposed influence on
the grain market Besides 10 holding
your grim you are blocking the wheels Of
material prosperity al over the land, and
putting far away the good time coming.
You need the money ,fer.yoar grain, to
buy with, aud the iiefchant needs II from
your hands q put pew life into trade.
Whatever you may have to sell, sell IL
'how, o. some enc morning you win wake
up to find that wheat has fallen, and YOU
are Justly loser.
The foregoing advice may BY good or
not. The farmer is generally the best
judge Of the proper timeto llhis produce.

Wanted Equal Terms.

II is related Of DR.. Guthrie that one
day, while making parochial visits, he
came to the door of an Irish papist, who
was determined that the doctor should
not enter his house You can't come
in here he said. "-You're not needed
nor wanted"
" My friend said the doctor, +" am
only visiting round my parish to be-
come acquainted With my people, and
have called on you-only as q parish
ioner."
"It don't matter said Paddy; "yer
shan't come in here" And with that
lifting the poker, he said, g If you come
in here I'll knock you down"
Most men would have retired, or tried
to reason. The doctor did neither; but
drawing himself up to his full height,
and looking the Irishman fair in the
face, he said, "Come now; that's too
bad. Would you strike man unarmed
Hand me the tones, and then we shall
he OH equal terms"
The man looked at him for a while in
great amazement, and then said, Och,
sure yer quare man for a minister
Come insde.' And feeling rather
ashamed of his conduct he laid down
the poker
The doctor entered, and talked, as he
could so well do. in way both SO enter
tanning and so instructive MS to win the
admiration of the man so that, when
he arose to go, Paddy shook his hand
warmly, and said, g. BE sure, Sir, don't
pass my door without giving me q call"
