An Arbitration.

Mr.. VIM. T. Robinson used to relate an
amusing anecdote of one Of the early
Robinsons, who, it appears, had Joined
the Quaker Meeting. Gov. Brenton had
placed him on farm belonging to him
situated on the south end of the island
adjacent to Benton's Point, and stocked
the same largely with sheep. In VIC.
lent snow-storm, such as used to prevail
more frequently than of late in New Eng
land (though l have known several in
my day nearly equally destructive), these
sheep having been left in an exposed po-
sition, were driven by the inclement
tempest of wind and sleet off the rocks
into the sea, where they perished. When
Robinson communicated the loss Of the
sheep to Brenton, the governor being
man of hasty temper, he flew into tow
ering rase e with his tenant, and reproached
him in unmeasured terms for the loss of
the sheep, through, as he charged, gross
neglect. To all the abuse heaped upon
him, Robinson answered not word,
which submissiveness seemed on y to in
crease Brentons ire, who, at last, in his
frenzy, declared that Robinson should pay
him for his lost sheep, and bid him choose
man to arbitrate their value, while
he chose another, which Brenton did, on
his part, instanter. 1t was now Robin.

whom Ishould prefer to trust my interest
with than thou! think | will choose
thee for my mani This was too much
for the governor, who, after bursting into
an uproarious fit of laughter, told his un-
manageable tenant to 90 back to the
farm and he would venture to trust one
more flock of sheep in his care.-ProUi-

GREEN FoOD FOR HENs.-A daily ra-
tion of green food is actually necessary
for laying hens. Vegetables, either
cooked or raw, are much relished also,
and serve in some measure to supply the
place of green diet. Onions chopped fine
aud mixed with their food are exceeding
ly wholesome, and if not a cure are GER
tsinly preventive of disease in many in
stances. Growing chickens are even more
anxious for green food than laying hens
They crave it, and when necessary to be
housed from it on account of inclement
weather, it should be provided for them.
There is no green food so wholesome for
them as onion tops cut up fine.

The Subscription Is Opened
OBJECT OF THE LOAN.

During the crisis which followed the of secession,
and which weighed heavily the State Of Louisiana
the Administrators of the Diocese of New Orleans
assumed liabilities which they have determined to
lquidate. In the past year better state of affairs
loomed up in the financial situation of the Diocese.
That Improvement will increase the rate of interest
claimed by ts creditors is lessened-
The conventional rate in Louisiana is too high for
religious society the of which, though entirely
secure. nevertheless limited, for such society
cannot look for eventual profits In contingent under
talings in epecuatons altogether inconsistent with
its mission of benevolence and charity.
Therefore it Is not with view Of creating new debt
that this loan is negotiated but order to unity and
consolidate eror liabties and obtain their gradual
and regular extinction by means of the ord nary
Of the Diocese, and without endaugerDg the
Church property. although affecting it. Such Is the
plan positively approved by His Holiness, Plus TX,
and unanimously adopted by the Board of Adninstrs
of tho Roman Catholic Church of the Diocese Of
New Orleans

SUMMARY.

From what precedes, it follows:
That the loan is negotiated with the sole object of
hquidating all former debts;
That it represents the liabilities OF the Society of
the Roman Catholic Church " whch thereby unified
and consolidated with reduced interest;
That it is secured by special mortgage proper
ties worth fve times 3 much the amount borrowed
and therefore amply sufficient to guarantee both the
payment Of and the redemp of the capital
Consequently the Mortgage Bonds OF the Diocese of
New Orleans nstitate n Arstclas investment with
moral and material securities bat seldom offered to
capitalists.

These figures show, no doubt, the con-
trast of the distribution of population,
civic and rural, in the three Kingdoms, the
above referring to little short of half the
inhabitants of England, more than one
third of the population of Scotland, and
only one igbth of those of Ireland; hence
deductions drawn from the table must be
affec led with the weakness of such Unequal
ity. Making, however, due allowance for
this, it is wholly insufficient to explain the
vast COL fict between the results for Ire
land and Scotland, less than 22 of the civic
population of Scotland suppyiDg to the
magistrates one person charged with drink
and dsorderly conduct, while it takes 81,
or more than four times as many, to supply
one from like population in Ireland. The
difference between the results in England
and Ireland is trihing, but the number
affe cted in Eogland is more than twelve
times greater. No doubt it may, and will
be said that large, perhaps the largest
portion of the drunkards in Scotland are
Irish but the same apology has been made
for the prevalence of other northern vices
and successfully refuted.
In each of the countries there is, unfor-
tuuately, gigantic work to be done in di-
minishing the horrible vice of drunkenness;
our duty is not to cast reproach on any,
but to vindicate race and nation upon
whom an unmerited amount of obloquy is
cast, and to set the true facts before the

Champagne Cider.

Any good, mild-havored apple can
be converted into an excellent bey-
erage. To make a choice article the
apple should be ripe and sopnd, free
from stems and leaves; and when
ground the pomsee should lie in the
vat from eighteen to twenty-foGr
hours. This gives good body, rich
ness, color and flavor TO the cider
that cannot be obtained when work
ed Immediately under the press As
it goes into the cask, do not use
straw in a wooden funnel to strain or
separate the sediment or pomsee
from the juice, bat strain the sweet
cider through flannel, which will
separate almost all the sediment,

bung or otherwise removed, for it is
mainly this sediment that sours the
