The SMALLEST BoY.-Master Frank
Flynn, of Norwich, N. Y, is probably
the smallest specimen of boy ever
known. he is four and a half years old,
and is thus described by q correspon-
dent:
We went to see him expecting Tom
Thumb or Commodore Mutt to walk in
before us. Imagine our surprise when
his grandmother brought him in as one
would good sized cat. He is not so
large as one Of Tom Thumbs legs. In
Tom Thumbs carriage he would look as
lonesome as al ordinary man in a circus
hand-wagon. To sit upon one of Tom
Thumbs easy chairs would be TO him
what it is to lhe ordinary boy to perch
upon gate-pust when the spring comes.
He is smaller than any one can conceive
who has not actually seen him. he had
on two pairs Of stockings, and even then
the smallest sized baby shoes were too
large for him. His wrist is the size of
an ordinary mans thumb, his ankle but
a slight increase. lie was dresued in q
full suit like o man. He stands twenty
three inches in his shoes, and weighs,
clothes and all twelve pounds. That is
the most he ever weighed in his life.
Still, he is lively, sprightly boy, very
active, climbing into chairs and getting
down; walks around with his hands be-.
hind him, "lika his grandpa" and talks
and laughs, ard is as cute as any boy of
his years. Ho is no larger than be was

A GREAT CE7R1os1TY.-Silver Springs,
Florida, is one of the greatest curiosities
in the South. 1t bursts forth in the
midst of the raost fertile country in the
State. It bubbles up in basin near
100 feet deep, and about an acre in ex-
tent, and seniiing from it a deep stream
60 to 100 feet wide, and extending six
to eight miles to the Ocklawaha River.
In the spring itself sixty boats may lie
at anchor-q,lite feet. The spring
thus forms a natural inland port, to
which three steamers now run regular.

connections with ths'ocean steamers at

truly wonderful. 1t seems even more
transparent than air; you see the bot
tom eighty feet below the bottom Of
your boat, the exact form of the smallest
pebble, the outline and color of the leaf
that has sank, and all prismatic colors
of the rainbow are reflected. Large
fish swim in il, every scale visible. and
every movement distinctly seen. If you
go over the spring in boat you will see

river rushes upward like an inverted cat.

A TERRIBLE CLouDBURsT.-A CORES.
pondent writing from Potter Valley,
Mendocino County, California, gives
the following graphic account of the rain
storm and of o terrible cloudburst in
that section of the country. Up to date
of writing, there had been III Potter val
lev 1880 inches of rainfall, with pros
poets of continuance of wet weather.
The roads were all washed out, and the
mails had failed TO put in ar appearance
for over week.. On the 18th of Feb
ruary, the wind blew almost gale on
the east side of the valley, tearing up
trees by the roots and snapEing them in
twain Ike straws, leveling s.ll things be-
fore it in its furious career. On the 18th
the storm took the form of 6, cloudburss,
which gave vent to its furious torrents on
the mountains Immediately east of the
valley. carrying devastation N its course.
The cloud FIRST appeared like gigantic
ball of dark, muddy fluid rolling down
the canon, where, confined within the
narrow limits of the rocky walls on both
sides its fury became condensed, and the
deluging torrents fell with redoubled
force; and from the point where it burst,
for a mile and half along the valley,
it literally ground to dust all objects
within its track; not tree or a shrub is
to be found where it passed. Trees, rocks,
immense bowlders, gravel and sand were
washed from their foundation, carried
by the currents of the food and deposit
ted upon the farms below in the valley.

In building new hen houses, we deem
it we'll to recommend, for economy's sake,
that the walls be carried up not too high
from the ground. The inside of fowl
house need not be over seven or eight
feet high, at tho caves, on either side,
with & "one-third pitch" above this for
the roof. II the building has only q
"shed" roof, or one slant of covering,
the back wall may be three to FIVE feet
high, and the front seven or eight feet
from the stills.
In all cases look we'll to the means of
having the building thoroughly ventilla-
ted, when desired. An opening in the
ridge for this purpose, or one at both
sides of the house under the caves, is
best. Have screen, trap-door, or slide
inside, that may be raised or shut at will
conveniently, in very cold weather.
There will come very sharp or stormy
nights in winter, when there must be no
opening in the house to admit the snow,
sleet or bitter frosty air.
Clear rye bran, alone, should never be
fed to fowls, on account of its swelling
and caking, in mass, in the crop, and
proving fatal to chicken-life, not infre-
auently. It will thus sodden and increase
in bulk very rapidly, before digesting-
causing rupture of the crop-if any great
quantity has been eaten. A neighbor,
We recollect, in q hurried way mixed
large pan full with water and placed the
mess before nice flock of three-quarters
grown chickens--leaving them to enjoy
the feed at their leisure. He drove away
in the wagon, and after an absence of
few hours returned to find his birds scat
tered about, dead, in his yards. 1t is
very good when mixed with wheat bran
and oatmeal or corn-meal. But, by
itself, it should not be fed to fowl stock.
Fowls drink water freely, but they
know just how much they need, and
when they have access to the fluid clean,
sweet and fresh, they imbibe no more
than is good for them. 1t is, therefore,
to mix your dough too thin,
and sloppy, at the morning feeding.
Have the meal well scalded, and feed
the mixture to the stock stiff and dry,
This feed should, gen.
orally, be composed of both corn and rye
meal, with vegetables-say one-third
each. In our own practice we have
found this preferable, both for the birds
and as IN economical provision, for the
old or the growing stock. A little pep
per occasionally in this dough, and al
ways salt, will improve the mess.
Calves or sheep's lights and livers,
which can always be obtained in the
for few cents apiece, are
to feed fowls, for two reasons.
They are devoid of bones, and they
closely resemble insect diet. We advise

FIGHTING A WHALE--A correspon-
dent ofthe Raleigh Observer, writing fsom
Moorhead City, coast of North Carolina,
says: Last week there was the most
exciting and dangerous whale fight that
has ever occurred on this coast. 1t vas
with some difficulty that the captain Of
the crew could get his men to obey orders.
When the first bomb was fired into the
whale it failed to explode. This made
the whale furious, when at this instant
he struck one of the boats and knocked
it some feet above the water. The cap
tain fired another bomb; this failed Of
explosion the fight was still getting
more furious. The third bomb was fired
and exploded near the heart. This con.
quered the monster. The blood spouted
some ten feet high, and as the crew rushed
to stick their lances in him, the blood
fell in showers upon them and their
boats. The fight was witnessed by
smother crew stationed about seven
miles above them. They looked on with
delight, only wishing they could get in
to such bloody contest. The whale
was forty-two feet long and extremely fat.
This FISH will probably bring about $500.
