Gardening iu France.

There are over 5000 men, women, and
children engaged in growing early as
paragus, lettuceS, carrots, and the hike
in and around Paris. The rent of the
land varies from $3.50 to S24O per acre,
according to situation and irrigation
plant. Theses market gardens are of
comparatively small dimensions, and
vary frJm to q acres in extent. TAX
ing the smaller size, the plant necessary
to carry on business costs nearly 81, 500,
including large and small bell glasses,
straw mats, glazed lights, frames, tools,
baskets, horse, cart, and other necessary
materials. The regular workmen, it is
sad, earn an average pay of about forty
cents per day, with board and lodging,
all the year round. Extra men receive
about seven cents per hour, women five
cents. Most of the men come from other
sections, not so much for the sake of the
wages, which are low for France, but in
order to learn business which they can
turn to profitable account when they re-
turn to their homes after two or three
years service.
Amiens claims to be one of the Oldest
market gardening towns in France, vege-
tables having been grown there in the
twelfth century--hundreds of years be-
fore cabbage was grown in England
There are at present about 250 acres un.

which averages about $3.50 per acre. The
cabbages often weigh from 40 to so
pounds, beet roots 20 to 25 pounds, black
radishes IL to 20 pounds, and the turnips
from II to 10 pounds. A stretch of about
fifteen miles of the north coast, near
Roscaff, is celebrated for its early ar
tichokes, onions, asparagus and potatoes.
England takes every year about 800 tons
of early vegetables and 1900 tons of
onions, being about one third of the
whole production. Fowr thousand souls
make a comfortable living, and even
grow rich, ON the produce of some two
thousand acres of land. Poitou, neigh
boring province, has given its name to
gigantic cabbage much grownin western
France, and largely used for cattle feed
ing. The leaves are carefully picked off
In the autumn and at the end of winter,
the plants being cut down in the spring.
Gathered in this way, the Poitou cabbage
will yield from IA to II tons per acre.

A Costly Dog Bite.

Iu Westchester County, N. Y, last
summer, a farmers dog rushed out upon
the public road and bit a peddler upon the
leg. Thereupon the peddler sued the far
mer, and a jury of his countrymen
awarded him damages in the sum Of six
hundred dollars. One doctor testified
that the teeth of the dog only scratched
the skin, and another that there was an
ulcer on the leg month after but the
report does not show any connection be-
tween this ulcer and the bite.

Popularity of the New a Per
Cents

NEW YORK, April ia special from
Chicago says that the United State Sub
Treasury in that city did very extensive
business yesterday, the cause of the ex-
citement being the popularity of the new
per cent. Government loan. The
amount subscribed in Chicago already
foots up more than in any other city of
the United States except New York. One
city banker called at the Sub-Treasurv
this morning and took $50, 900 worth Of
the new per cent. bonds and paid for
them in cash. During this morning the
indivldualsubscripti to the loan footed
up $4,000. About $4,000 of the new
standard dollars are paid out daily in ex-
change for gold.

The Pirates Doom.
BY PARK BENJAMIN, JR.

"rbe prisoners fetchr' shreked the captain bold.
A pirate captain full fierce was he
With big mustache and beard three days old,
For he never would shave when he went TO sea.
"Drag forth the crew of that merchant bark,
Threats must be gashed ere the moon grow pale.''
The pirate ship in the midnight dark
FiJfally rocked to the rising glle
as bIoodr' yelled the Captain. "'S blood and
sd death!
Daggers and gore! am not obeyed!''
Grinding bis fangs as he paused for breath,
He savagey round with handspike laid.
But on never soul did his wild blows fall,
For the night was dark and he couldn't see;
Besides, on that deck was one at all
Why was this thus? Why should such things be?
A horrible laugh DER the tempest pealed.
Ger the wet waves seething, dark and vexed,
hideous howl as the pirate reeled,
Clutched by
