A VOraciOus Calf.

A Connecticut paper says: Joseph
M. Hoadley stopped at farmers in
Huntington and left his horse in the
barn for about three hours. When he
returned he found that calf had eaten
part of the horses name and tail, and
had made considerable progress on the
harness. He is glad he got back in time
to save the horse. w. w. Brakeman
took a party of young folks to Bungy to
pick berries. He put the harness into
the wagon and turned the horse into a
neighboring field. When he came back
he found that a calf was making meal
of the harness, and he got home with
difficulty. Some time ago A. f. Sher-
wood drove to Great Hill and hung mis-
harness under shed; in the morning
he found that the calves had made such
havoc with it that it was necessary to go
to Birmingham to get new harness be-
fore he could return home. IF there is
anything calf will not eat, it must be
the tires on the wheels.

THE Independence Beige publishes
what purports to be a new anecdote OF
Trafalgar. When the British ships, IN.
der Nelson, were bearing down to at
tack the combined feet of Trafalgar, the
First Lieutenant of the Revenge, on GO
ing around to see that all hands were at
quarters, observed one of the men de-
voutly kneeling at the side of his gun.
So very unusual an attitude in a British
sailor excited his surprise, and ne asked
the man if he was afraid. tAfraid 2"
answered the honest tar; "no; I was
only praying that the enemy's shot may
be distributed in the same proportion
as the prize money-the greatest part
among the officers"

Smoke.

Smoke is defined by the Boston Jour-
nal of Chemistry to be "unburnt car
bon, or fuel thrown away" 1t adds:
Z" The torrents of black vapor from our
chimneys and smokepipes contain thous-
ands of tons of coal, lost because we have
not learned how to save it. The time
will come when this will be reckoned as
foolish as we should now consider it to
shovel coal into the sea, as we used to
dispose of refuse from gas-works, which
has become the source of so many use
full and valuable products. The chemi-
cal lecturer of the next century will tell
his audience how long it was before the
world learned how to burn fuel without
blowing good part of it into the air.
He will grow facetious as he describes
the appearance Of great cities perpetu-
ally covered with pail of vaporous
blackness.

POLITICIANS in France are talking as

years, will expire in 1880, and the ques-
ton of a successor becomes important.

WE learn, on the authority Of the
London Medical Examiner, that it is
proposed to form "School of Beauty y
in England, in which the members, male
and female, pledge themselves to do all
%hey can to make themselves comedy by
natural means. Prizes will be given to
those ladies who can move with ease and
grace, and SO afford evidence of the free
use of their limbs, while it will be a
leading rule Of the school that, though
stays may be used as a means Of support,
they shall not be deemed essential as an
accessory to beauty. In other words, a
natural waist and well-curved back,
with perfectly-posed head, will be at a
premium.

DR. GRIsoN, of New York, declares
that he would rather be bitten by
twenty dogs than one man. He has
treated several persons bitten by men,
the last being NJ. J. Russell, of Brook
lyn. Mr.. Russell, in attempting to
separate two men who were fighting,
was bitten on the finger. He was adj
vised to have the finger amputated, but
declined until it was swollen to four
times it's normal size. Two operations
were performed, but the poison had ex-
tended to other parts Of the body, and,
after painful illness, Mr.. Russell died.
Among the physicians called, some held
that the virus was in the saliva, and was
most deadly when the person was en-
ragged. Others dissented from this
view, but all agreed that poison from a
mans bite, penetrating the bony tissue,
was very dangerous, and likely to result
fatally.

ATTENTION has been more than once
called to the fact that the percentage of
suicides in San Francisco is, and for
some time past has been, higher than in
any other city in this country or in
Europe. The annual report of the
Coroner Of San Francisco has just been
published, and it fully confirms this sad
statement. There were 1O3 bodies of
suicides brought to the Morgue during
the year, besides many lost in the bay
and not accounted for. More than one
half of the known self-murderers were
unmarried. The average age was only
80 years. More than one-half were of
European nativity. The predisposing
cause was pecuniary trouble in thirty
five cases. The green-eyed monster led
two to death disappointment in love
caused four to shuttle off their mortal
coil and grief through bereavement in
duced four others to Stay themselves.
Alcohol is credited with the death of ff-
teen of the self-murderers, and, by very
curious diagnosis, " laziness' is assigned
as the cause of four others. Two killed
themselves after having killed other per-
sons and six are put down as OF I'M
sound mind or insane" No less than
seventeen killed themselves because they
had been told they we're the victims of
incurable diseases.
