CURRANT TREES.

A gardener writes to the London Journal
of horticulture of the advantage of growing
clirrants as standard trees instead of bushes.
He says:
The system of grating which is adopted
on the continent and in America is not nee
essary in growing standard currants in Eng
land. Given vigorous stocks, time is no
doubt saved by grating, but really the
growing OF cuttings into miniature trees is
by no means Il slow process.
Standard red currants are both ornament
al and profitable, and the fruit on them is
never attacked by birds so rersistantly as is
fruit growing on bushes. / have grown
standards for number Of years, and have

Several of our citizens have lately been look

have met quite a number who persist that
the eggs are being destroyed, and, in fact,

the best; still our faith is weak in the de-
idea.
An experiment was recently made in Sid
ney. New South Wales, by way Of utilizing
the blood from an abattoir outside of the

waste blood being used instead Of manure.
In eight weeks the barley was four feet in
height, remarkably heavy and giving prom

A E RICU IL i RI
ggAIN VS.. MUSCLE.

The long winter evenings afford our farm
ars an admirable opportunity for planning
their work for The coming season. Much
Of your success will depend upon the amount
of brain work you hestow upon your acres
before the muscular labor is demanded. We
are firmly convinced that the bodily is sub
ordinate and inferior to the mental labor
necessary for farming operations. We know
many old fossils, who know nothing and
never will know anything. will laugh at this
assertion and regard it rs the offspring of a
theory which has never been tested by ac-
tual experience. They are mistaken.
In our schoolboy days. and that was many
years ago. one OF our neighbors. man well
to do in the world, was habitually late
riser, contrary to the statute in such cases
made and provided" Sometimes Ills habits
were source Of annoyance to his ncighbors,
and once we Heard him expostuated with
for wasting precious hours in bed. His only
response was. /" can make more by one
hour Of thought in the morning than you
can earn all day by severe labor.' This re-
ply produced great impression upon our
boyish mind and we began to consider If,
ny such an argument, we could persuade
patcr to allow us an hour or two of thought
full ease in bed. instead of being engaged in
the menal labor Of milking COWS, feeding
pigs and currying oxen. A few stern les
sons convinced us that, SO far, as we We're
concerned, brain work, in bed. was failure.
Farming, as science. is in its earliest in
fancy. We are only on the threshold of ag-
nculttral knowledge. There is very much
Tor every one to learn. The earth is. in IL
great measure, a sealed book. and only ear
nest study and constant thought can open
OUT the heretofore unknown treasures of the
soil. Agricultural books ard papers should
pe IN every farmers home. and their con-
tents should be carefully studied and supple
mented with thoughtful experiment
The old way of cunivating the soil me-
ehanically, as it We're, will no longer entitle
q man to rank as farmer. The brain must
dlrect and control tie muscle, and the main
strength and awkwar.ness of the servant
must obey the intelligence and skill of the
master. Farming is honorable as a vocation
anu profitable just in proportion as we be-
SLOW upon it the thought that other success
iul industries require. A non-reading. nom
thlnking farmer is only a slaye--a servant of
servants, and his most cruel task-master is

The Hornbach Case.

The case OF W. +. Hornbach, a private watch
man, charged with rape In three separate aft.
davits, was yesterday before Judge Smith, Of the
FirstlRecorder's Oonrt, on preliminary OK amina-
ton. The State was represented by Mr.. o. N. Og-
den at the request Of the Attorney General, while
the accused was represented by Attorneys Dali
sheimer and Luzenburg. After hearing exhaust
I've testimony both for the prosecution and de-
Tense, his honor discharged the accused.
When the case WAS in progress one of the law
yers for tho defense attracted the attention Of
the court BY stating thai Mrs. Madden, one of
the witnesses for the prosecution, was persecut-
ing . little girl, also q witness for the prosecu-
ton.
The Judge called Mrs. Madden and sent her
into the dock. The attorney Tor the state pro-
tested and stated that she had not been allowed
TO ssy q word in her own defense, put Mrs. Mad
den went into the dock nevertheless.
As DIR. Burns, the shorthand reporter was
reading the testimony to q witness, Mr.. Ogden
wished to make correction, but Judge smith
decided that the law did not give him that
power. Mr.. Ogden began to argue the question,
when the Judge peremptorily told him to take
his seat. After the testimony had bsen read
Mr.. Ogden considering that he had not been
treated with proper courtesy, said that he wished
to Withdraw. The Judge maintained that the
lawyer had not treated the court with proper re-
spect. Mr.. Ogden said he did not intend to be
disrespectful 10 the court.
The judge then said he did not intend to be
dieconrteous to the representative of the State
and asked lin to go on with the prosecution.
Mr.. Ogden thereupJn was modified and con-
scented TO 60 on wi b the case.

DANIEL HICKY,

The sad intelligence reaches Us from Iberville,
of the sudden death last evening OF Mr.. Daniel
Hicky formerly OF New Hope plantation in West
Baton Rouge. Mr.. Hicky WAS son of the late
Col. Philip Hicky, Of East Baton Rouge, whose
bonored name still lives In the hearts Of hosts OF
Louisiapa's oldest and best citizens. As the
father 80 was the son, man Of spotlsss integ-
rity, strong affections, and of boundless gen.
crosby. Tho heir of large fortune, Mr.. Hicky
was not only its censervator but likewise one Of
the most active and intelligent Of that ohivalrous
race Of planter gentlemen, who built up not only
Gus and ncble in oil his instincts, his whole life
was full OF Christian bsnevolence and manly de-
votion.
True to his people, the war furnished an
opportunity for the active exercise of his self
sacrificing charity, and its termination found him,
Ike so many OF his class, shattered in fortune,
but not impaired in those high qualities which
made hia, indeed so admirable u nature. His
Efforts were ut once directed to The repa ration of
the ravages of war. But, alss the floods of the
Mississippi, pouring through the Hicky Gre
vasse IN 1874, swept away oil that was left him.
With family saved from the food, az it we're, by
\ miracle, he found himself homeless and perui-
less. His high courage, however, remained nI-
conquered, and he turned Ut once from the posi-
tiop OF large landed proprietor to that OF filler
ut the soil. Adversely had changed his fortune,
but not his foritude. History is full Of plauds Of
The great, but the noble simplicity Of such man
finds record only in the hearts Of friends and the
poor who have felt his bounty; thus recorded, IL
will survive time and shine forth rsspIendent In
an eternity to come.

A HEAVY DAMAGE SUIT,
An Old Corporation Comes Befere the
GOurts.

An Old Corporation Comes Before the
Courts.
The old Jefferson and Lake Pontchartrain Rail-
road Company on yesterday entered quit in tho
Fifth District Court az inst the city OF New Or
leans for the sum Of s10n 900.
The petition ri plaintiffs sets forth that they
| are the bona .fde owners Of q tract of land sit
| uated on the Metairie Ridge, about four miles
from New Orleans, which tract measures two
srpents front on either side of the road, with q
depth running to Lake Pontchartran on the
northern side, and TO the limits Of the Macarty
and Lanusse lands on tho southern side.
The company says that the commissioners of
the second drainage district, on about August,
1871, forcibly, wrongfuy and illegally entered
upon said land then wholly in the parish of JET
ferson aud OUTSIDE of the boundaries of said sec
opd drainage district, and began to cut and Dig
through it canal to extend from North Line
street and through the entire length Of the said
property OF said company; aud they continued to
dig said canal and to throw on both sides Of it
the earth excavated, until on about the Oath of
February, 1871, when the power, righ3s and privi-
leged OF said board were by act No. 30, of 1871,
transferred to he city OF New Orleans, who be-
came the successor OF said drainage commits
sioners and the city thereafter completed the

The company say that said canal has q width II
35 feet at the south end or Oarrollton end,
and 65 feet at the lake end, and q length OF
I6, 459 feet
The company say that it will cost to refill said
canal and remove the embankment $4,000, for
which amount the city is INDEBTED to said COM
pany.

1871, aud to the present time, the city has used
said canal and the said land OF the company, for
which use the company claims that the city Is in
debted to it in the sum OF $4,000.
The company say that the city has no right to
maint tain and use said canal on their land, and
therefore AK for a writ of miunc ion enioining
and prohibiting said city from using said canal or
to drain into said canal and over the property OF
said property.
The company also asks for judgment decree
ing that the company is the owner OF said prop
er'v, and also for Judgment for $l00, 900. rule
