Grant and his FOrefinger.

AS characteristic anecdotes of General
Grant will be all the go for the next few
weeks the Post has, with its usual enterprise
and at gigantic expense, secured the follow
ing incident, which we can solemnly assure
our readers has been heretofore unpublished.
During the terrible artillery duel, which re-
suited in the Confederates falling back after
the third days fight at Fredericksburg, the
Two Hundred and Tenth Ohios, under Colo
mel Fluke McGilder, were thrice repulsed
while endeavoring to capture an important
position, and finally retreated, much distress
ed by dccimating fire directed at them from
a corps of sharpshooters ambushed in piece
of woods.
Just at this juncture Grant galloped by
with his staff, and taking in the critical con-
dition at once, he rode to the front of the fall
tering men and pointed with his finger at the
rebel earthworks. Before he could speak,
however, the whistle of bullet was heard,
and his finger disappeared. Without moving
a muscle Grant extended the second finger of
his hand and said quietly, 1--WE must have
that ridge, boys; try again" 1t is needless
to add that The boys did try again, and this
time carried the position with rush. AS
they dashed up the slope surgeon hurried
up and said ..
"Shall dress your hand, General?"
"Oh, guess it isn't necessary" said Grant,
with an indescribable wink. my finger isn't
gone. l merely shut it in against the palm
in this manner. It's an old trick learned at
school, that all.p And he rode off. n..l
Thus it is seen how presence of mind, fer
tility of resource, &c, &c.-San Francisco

Horse ShOeing.
THE EVILS OF NEW TANGLED NOTIONS ABOUT
Shooting HORSES.

THE EVILS OF NEW TANGLED NOTIONS ABOUT
Shooting HORSES.
Perhaps, never since the first horseshoe was
invented, has its evil been SO great as at the
present day. One of the great errors is so
many new ideas of shoes. From the veteri-
nary to the lawyer has the brain been racked
for some new-fangled idea, supposed to be
benefit to the horse-if not the horse, the in
ventors pocket There is the Goodenough,
the Seeley, the John Billings, the Keystone
and numerous Others Each of them has been
trying to benefit the speed or draft of the
horse, forgetting that the usefulness of the
horse depends on the adaptation of the shoe
to the foot, not to the ground. find that
lameness in most cases is caused either by the
shoe made too narrow at the quarter and cut
ting the foot to fit the shoe or the shoe being
conceived or beeveled from the outer edge in
ward. Every time the horses weight press
es on the shoeitproduces contraction instead
of expansion, causes fever in the foot thereby
destroying the healthy condition of the frog
and causing it to shrink from the wonted size,
thus preventing it giving the moisture and
elasticity that nature intended it to apply to
the foot. The bones of the foot are three in
number, the coffin bone, the navicular bone and
part of the coronet bone. These are contain
ed within the hoof and combine to form the
COllU JOlI, Dut TIE SlllilltSb Ol Lue Lne HiiVlC-
ular bone, is of far more importance as con
nected with the shoeng than either of the 9th
ers. Upon the healthy condition of this bone,
andthe joint formed between it and the tendon
which passes under the coffin bone, and is
called the navicular joint mainly depends the
usefulness of the horse to man. Therefore, it
is very important that the shoe should be so
constructed as to keep the foot in its natural
state. The manner generally pursued in par
ing the foot is to cut away the sole so it can
be dented with the thumb and finger by press
ing hard upon it; also cutting out the sole
between the bar and crust at the heel and
leaving sharp edge on the crust to rest on
the shoe, which is fitted to the foot with its
outer edge the highest, and preventing the
foot from expanding as it grows.
When the sole is scooped out so much ut
the toe the shell or crust ofthat part contracts
and causes what is termed timber toe. When
this defect prevails the hoof, fetlock joint and
tibia Tor leg bone) remain almost in straight
line, so the horse is obliged to walk on his
toes, which causes short stepping and STUN
bling. Another error, too generally practiced,
and which causes contraction of the heel, is
the scooping out of the sole between the bars
and crust, which causes the crust to harden
and contract, producing what is called corns,
which are nothing more or less than bruises
of the sole, resulting from the turning in of
the crust, causing pressure on the bone and
lameness.-I Philadelphia Times.

BenZine for Moths.

A sort of trade secret among upholsterers,
il is said is the recipe for Kidding furniture of
moths A set of furniture that seemed to be
alive with the larve, and from which hundreds
of these pests had been picked and brushed,
was set into room by itself. Three gallons
of benzine had been purchased at thirty cents
gallon, retail. Using q small watering pot,
with fine rose sprinkler, the whole Of the
upholstery was saturated through and through
with the benzine. The result was every moth,
larvae and egg was killed. The benzine dried
out in a very hours, and the entire odor dis
appeared in three or four days. Not the
slightest harm happened to the varnish or
fabric, or wood, or hair stufing. That was
months ago, and not sign of moth has
since appeared The carpets were also well
sprinkled all around the sides of the room
with equally good effect. For furs, fannels,
indeed all wooden things containing moths,
benzine is most valuable. Put them in a box,
sprinkle them with benzine close the box
tightly, and in day or two the pests will be
eXterminated, and the benzine will all evapo-
rate on opening, In using benzine great care
should be taken that no fire is near by, as
the stuff, in fluid or vapor form, is very in
f1ammable.

How Fowls are Judged.

Many of the agricultural societies through
out the country are adopting the plan of en-
ploying regular poultry judges to Judge the
display of poultry at their fairs. This is
move in the right direction, and means i'm
provement in the farm poultry stock. The
poultry judges should be required, in addition
to placing the award notes in the judges
book the reasons, whenever they are obliged
to disqualify bird. This the secretary could
show the exhibitor, which would be an official
record why the bird did not win premium,
and perhaps enlighten many on some points
necessary to observe in breeding pure-bred
poultry. All regular poultry judges are now
appointed by the American Poultry Associa-
ton, and no one can be appointed who is not
known to be thoroughly competent. The
poultry is judged at the regular poultry shows,
and also at all agricultural shows where re-
gular poultry judge is engaged, in the follow
ing manner: The coops containing the fowls
are numbered and the Judge is given book
which has simply the names of the different
breeds in, under which are placed only the
numbers, corresponding with those ON the
coops. To illustrate: if there are five entries
of Houdans, it would thus be placed in the
judges book;

Miss Pallas Eudora Won Blurky
She didn't know chicken from turkey;
High Spanish and Greek she could fuently speak
But her knowledge of poultry was murky.
She could tell the great-uncle of Moses,
And the dates of the Wars of the Roses,
And the reasons Of things,-why the Indians wore
rings
In their red, aboriginal noses /
Why SHAKESPEARE was wrong In his grammar,
And the meaning of Emersons "Brahma"
And she went chipping rocks with a little black

And small geological hammerl
She had views upon co-education
And the principal needs of the nation,
And her glasses were blue, and the number she

OF the stars in each high constellation.
And she wrote in a handwriting clerky,
And she talked with an emphasis ierky,
And she painted tiles in the sweetest of styles

/. THE PETRIFIED FERN.

: THE PETRIFIED FERN.
In n valley centuries ago,
Grew n little fern leaf, green and slender
Veinng delicate and flbrcs tender
waving when the winds crrpt down so low;
Rusfes tall, and moss and grass grew round it,
Playful sunbeams dartcd in and found it,
Dropsof dew stole in at night and crowned 1t,
But no foot Of man e'er trod that way:
Earth was young and keeping holiday.
Monster fishes swan the silent MAN,
Stately forests waved their giant branches,
Mountains hurled their snowy avalanches,
Mammoth creatures stalkcd across the plain,
Nature reveled in grand mysteries;
But the little fern was not of these, .-
Did not-nulRb6r with the hills and trees
Only grew and waved its sweet, wild way
No one came to note it, day by day.
Earth one time put on n frolic mood,
Heavcd the rocks, and changed the mighty motion
OF the deep strong currents of the ocean;
Moved the plain and shook the naughty wood,
Crushed the little fern, in soft moist clay,
Covered it and hid it safe away.
o the long, long centuries since that day
o the changes! o life's bitter cost,
Since that useless little fern was lost
Useless Lost There came q thoughtful man,
Searching natures secrets far and deep;
From fissurc in Il rocky steep
He withdrew stone, DER which there ran
Fairy pencilings, q quaint design
Vcinings, LEAKAGE, fibres clear and fine,
And the ferns life lay in every line
So. think God hides some souls away,
Swectly to surprise us at the last day. ..
