England is rapidly pushing its war pre-
parations and Russia is sparing no pains or
expense to be fully prepared for what may
come. The congress is admitted to be q

tunity to be Inundated by England. There
seems to be no alternative than war. The
result of the Russian mission to secure the
neutrality Of Austria has not yet transpired,
but the indications are that Austria will
become an ally of the queen. Turkey ap-
pears as the ally of Russia and will request
England to withdraw its fleet from the sea

Good Fellows not Good Friends.

Though it is hard and cruel thing to
say, would urge you to beware OF tax
ing pleasant fellows for your friends.
Choose q good, disagreeable friend, if
you are wise-a surly. steady, econom-
zeal, rigid fellow. All jolly fellows, all
delights of billiard-rooms, all fellows
who sing capital song. and the like,
are sure to be poor. They will borrow
your money, and their very generosity
and goodness Of disposition will prevent
them from having the means of paving
you back. They lend their money to
some other jolly fellow. They accom-
modate each other by putting their jolly
names to the back Of Jolly bulls. Their
tradesmen are ON the lookout for them.

The chickens should be taken away
from the hen, rs they hatch out, rs soon
as they are dry; for otherwise they dis
turb her, and she is ap. to abandon the
remaining eggs, which are consequent
" lost. As the chicks are removed,
they should be put in a warm place, in
a pot containing soft tow, and covered
with wooden cloth.
As regards the young chicks, the
great point is to take care that, till they
are at least six weeks old, they are kept
in uniform warm temperture of about
so degs. Fair. When they are about
half grown they may gradually be accus-
toned to every variation of weather, so
as to get a strong, hardy race, that in
turn will produce vigorous offspring.
The best food of all for the first few
days is hard-boiled eggs, chopped up
fine. 1t serves with them the place of
mothers milk with infant mammalia.
But this system must not be continued
too long, lest their natural appetites
should be depraved. In a few days
time they may have millet, soaked in
milk. This must not be pasty or
doughty; but in good-sized Jumps that
crumble down readily under the finger
and thumb. Along with this they should
have little fine-chopped meat every
other day. When four weeks old, they
should have some sopped wheat, which
strengthens them wonderfully and
makes them grow and lay on flesh fast
This may be varied with potatoes and
white bread, soaked in milk
One point of great importance in feed
ing young fowls should neyer be lost
sight Of 1t is neglect of this that causes
SO many failures in poultry-rearing.
They must be fed often; but never have
more at time than they can take with
appetite, for no animal is more dainty
than the fowl. Once give them too much
food at q time, so that they leave some
of it uneaten, and they will rarely eat OF
it again, unless actually driven by hum
ger, and then only just enough to stave
off starvation. Dorkings, indeed, will
literally die rather than touch food to
which they have taken dislike. Plen-
ty of exercise in the open air is good
thing for the young ones; but even in a
very confined space poultry-breeding
yields excellent results, if only it be car

The Duel Of Paul De Cassagnac.

The recent duel between NJ. Paul de
Cassagnac and n. Thomson is the third
that has taken place between French
Deputies since the opening of the ses-
sion in November; and it is NJ. de Cas-
sagnac's fifteenth. This amiable poll
tician has refused more challenges than
he has accepted, and on one or two Oc-
casions his own cartels have been de-
clined. These Cassagnacs are Creoles
from Guadalupe, and NJ. Paul's ma
ternal grandfather, NJ. de Bsuvallon,
who served in the First Napoleon's
army, WAS noted as one of the most
short-tempered officers and readiest
duelists in the service.
lie has fought with Henri Rochefort;
Aurelien Scholl, editor of the Main
jaime; Gustave FlOurens. who was
killed under the Commune; Lissagaray,
the historian of the Commune, who is
his cousin; Arthur Rsnc, ex-member for
Paris; and EdOuard Lockroy, member
for Aix-these and his other adversaries
being all Republicans. Among the
well known persons with whom be has
declined to fight are Lieut.. Lullier, now
in New Caledonia, who publicly slapped
his face, and NJ. Clemenceau, one If the
members for Paris, who is renowned as
a swordsman, and is the more danger
our from being left-handed. NJ Gam
BETA has been challenged by NJ. de Cas-
sagnac, but disdained even to answer
him; and the late NJ. Vermorel, who
died of the wounds he received under
the Commune, was one of the many
others whom the young editor of the
Pays sought in vain to draw into duel.
In 1867, NJ. Vermorel, who was then
conducting the Courier Francais, raked
up some unsavory scandal about the
elder Cassagnac, and published it day
after day. The son, burning to avenge
his father, but finding he could get no
redress, waylaid NJ. Vermorel st the
door of the latter's office and spat in
his face, for which breach Of the peace
he was sentenced to Imprisonment. NJ.
de Cassagnac has been in trouble with
the law courts about dozen times, but
it has always been his luck to be SEN
fenced to prison under the rule of Con-
sentative Governments, who gave him
free pardons. He has never spent day
in jail, and is Knight of the Legion Of
Honor.-London Ne,cs.

Valae Of Unconsidered Trines.

The Virginia City (Nev.) Enterprise
says: At the C. and C. shaft there is q
large room in which the miners change
their clothing on going into and COM
ing out of the lower levels. On coming
out of the mine their clothes, . wooden
shirt and pair of wooden drawers or
cotton Overalls, are reeking with per-
SEPARATION and are more or less soiled by
the dust that has settled upon them. In
the changing room is 8 large trough
with supply Of hot and cold water.
Here the miners wash the clothes they
have worn in the mines before leaving
for their homes, hanging them upon
racks to dry in order that they may have
clean clothes when they next go down
into the lower levels. In this tank or
trough some 600 men daily wash their
clothing when going of shift and in rs

bottom there collects about fifty pound,
per day of sand and clay. YESTERDAY
Colonel Fair had the curiosity to have
the Assayer Of the Consoi idated Virginia
Assay Office, Henry G. Elder, make an
assay of the sediment deposited in the
washing tank, and the following is the
result: Gold per ton, SIPS. 60; silver.
$1,000, making total of S259. 10 Der
ton for the dirt washed out of the shirts
and overalis of the miners. Hereto.
fore the washings of this trough have
not been saved, but they will now prob
ably be taken care of by some one, as in
the course Of year they would amount
to quite snug little sum.
In the large jewelry manufactures
the world over, where the workmen
handle and file and FURNISH gold and
silver, they are required to wash their
hands in marble tank, and the amount
of the precious metals saved in this way
in the course of a year is something as
tonishing.
We are now able to see that since the
opening of the mines of the Comstock
half a dozen large fortunes must have
been sowH broadcast over the country
by the winds. The amount of ore that
would stick upon the clothing of the
miners Is as nothing compared with
that blown off wagons and cars by the
winds. The fine ore thus
blown away is generally of
the richest character. From a train of
forty cars in going from this place to
the mills on the Carson River through
Washoe zephyr" the loss would prob
ably not fall short of ton. OF late,
however, the precaution has been taken
of securing the fine ore by wetting down
the loaded cars before the departure of
the trains from the Greenhouses.
In the early days, when hundreds of
teams were engaged in hauling the rich
ores of the Ophir to Washoe Valley, the
wagons being all day on the road, i'm
mense amounts must have blown SWAY,
as in crossing the mountain and wind
ing around the points of the hills the
wind often blew hard enough to scatter
not only the fine particles of ore, but
also Jumps of considerable size from the
wagons, piled and rounded up as they
generally were.
| 1t could hardly be expected, however,
that in those days any one woold think
Of the fine ore blown off the loaded
wagons when no one paid any attention
to the Jumps that were rolling off, and
when it was not unusual for teamsters
to stop and fill up chuck holes with the
rich ore upon their wagons. As men at
that time did not think of saving the
tailings running to waste from the mills,
and almost as rich as the ores that went
under the stamps, we can hardly find
fault of them for paying no attention to
the ore blown from the wagons and
scattered along the roads by the team
sters. Now, however, although late in
the day, we are becoming wiser, and
find that even in the washings of the
dirty clothing of the employees of one
mine there is little bonanza OF about
% 900 per annum.
