The Pleasure OF Hanging.

Some time since the American press
was discussing the question Does it
hurt a man to hang him u The conclu-
sion arrived at seemed to be that hanging
was a painless death. Now some OF the
English magazines are specializing On the
sensation of a hanged person, and they
almost make out that hanging is rather a
pleasurable and desirable operation. One
person who vas hung. to all intents and
purposes, and afterwards revived, de-
clared that he felt no pain, and his only
sensations were OF fire before his eyes,
which changed first to black and then to
sky blue. These colors are ever a source
OF pleasure. A culprit who was revived
when almost dead, complained that,
having lost all pain in AN instant, he had
been taken from a light of which the
charm deied description. Another crimi.
nal. who e,caped through the breaking
OF the halter, said that, after A second or
two OF suffering, a light appeared, and
across it 4 most beautiful avenue ol

A New Use for tho Telegraph.

A novel use of the telegraph has lately
been adopted by the Norwegian govern.
ment. As is we'll known, the herring
fishery forms n of the most important
sources of income for the country, the
captures being made as the great shoals
come from the depths of the sea to
deposit their spawn in the Norwegian
fiords. 1t frequently happens that the
object of their visit Is accomplished, and
they return to the ocean before news Of
their arrival reaches the fishers on dis.
taut parts of the coast. This difficulty
i. now obviated by the construction of a
Geographic line, two hundred kilome'
tres in Length. comros'd chiefly of sub
n arine cables, by means of which the

value nnd PROFIT Of sheep.
The following i. from the Son OF the
Soil:
In all southern localities, our southern
farmers and planters should keep az large
f 'cks Of sheep as possible, for the follow
ing reasons;
/ Tney are very profitable both Tor
wool and mutton.
2. They speedily enrich the land over
which they range.
3. Their number increases with great
rapidity when properly cared tor and
protected, and they wi. thus make the
owner rich in a few years.
3. A German agriculturalist has calcu-
lated that the %droppings from n thou,
sand sheep during a single night, would
manure al acre of ground sufficient ior
any crop. BY using cheap portable
fences, and moving the same from place
to place, a farmer may manure his out
lying fields with sheep, at less cost than
the hauling and spreading Of ordinary
manure. -,
4. A great deal Of the most valuable
manure may also be made by a CHEAP
and easy system Of night folding, on well
Uttered yards and in sheds, which shoult
always be erected on the range to protec
the flock against sudden and sever
changes in the weather.

In a recent speech made in England,
Mr.. Card said Indian corn, which ranks
among cereal grains, next to wheat, in
imports waB almost unknown in Great
Britain before the potato famine OF l845'
AZ, and was not liked. In l8l7, 100000
tons were sent to ireland, but by 1857
the imports had diminished to one
quarter of that amount. In 1867 it was
hardly more popular, but the bad harvest
of that year brought it into greater re-
quest. 1t rose still further in 1878, after
the bad harvest that year; and in 1876,
with another deficient harvest it doubled
at once the highest previous importation.
1t il the cheapest article Of food In the
market, being at present little more
than hall the price Of wheat per pound
and its introduction in such largequanti
ties greatly modifies the pressure which
would otherwise be felt after deficient
haivesls in that country. In this con
nection, as we have hitherto remarked
the failure of the turnip crop in Englanc
ought to add largely to our sales in
Indian corn there.
