"Only Our Black Wolf"

Some of the pets of Russian house
hold quite equal the Boston lady's Mrs.
Lincoln's) lions. The following anec-
dote shows how "the wolf at the door ="
was coolly tolerated by the rich, land
not much less fatally than by the poor !:
One fine day Vieuxtemps, the violin
list, was invited to spend few days at
the residence of a wealthy Russian
noble. He was not little surprised
and scared when, as he was going down
the staircase on his way to dinner, he
saw black mass on the landing, in
the midst Of which glowed two fiery
eyes.
What is that?" said the artist.
"Oh, nothingi only our black wolf.
He's hungry" said his hostess.
At night, when Vieuxtemps was con-
Quoted to his apartment, he almost
stepped upon the same black mass,
which lay across the threshold of the
bedroom.
What's that?" said the artist.
"Oh, nothing" said the ualet-de-cham.
bre, who accompanied him, "only our
black wolf! I'll drive him off. Schwolf."
Early next morning, as the attendant
entered Vieuxtemp's room to open the
shutters, a frightful fusilade was heard
in the courtyard.
What's that ?" said the artist, start
ing up in bed.
Oh, nothing only our black wolf.
They've shot him for killing the cook
last night"

Virtue of No Color.

A New England sloop, trading to
New Guinea in the year 1852, left the
second mate, William Murray, sick on
shore, and sailed without him. Muir
ray was at the house of a negro, named
Cudjoe, with whom he had contracted
an acquaintance during their trade.
He recovered, and the sloop being
gone, he continued with his black
friend till some other opportunity
should offer of his getting home. In
the meantime Dutch ship came into
the road and some of the negroes COM
ing on board her were treacherously
seized and carried off as slaves. Their
relations and friends, transported with
sudden rage, ran to the house of Cud-
Joe to take revenge by killing Murray.
Cudioe stopped them at the door, and
demanded what they wanted?
"The white men" said they, "have
carried away our brothers and sons,
and we will kill all white men. Give
us the white man you have in your
house, for we will kill him."
Nay said Cudioe, 1.-THE white men
that carried away your relations are bad
men; kill them when you can take
them; but this white man is a good
man, and you must not kill him."
But he is white man." they cried,
".and the white men are all bad we
will kill them all"
May" said he, "you must not kill
man that has done no harm, only for
being white. This man is my friend |;
my house is his post am his soldier,
and must fight for him; you must kill
me before you can kill him. What good
man will ever come again under my
roof, if I let my floor be stained with o
good mans blood? 2"
The negroes, seeing his resolution,
and being convinced that they were
wrong, went away ashamed; and after
ward declared they were glad they had
not killed the innocent man, for their
god would have been very angry.

CONTROLLING Vicious HoRsEs.-A new
and very simple method of training vicious
horses was exhibited in West Philadelp phia re
Gently, and the manner in which some of the
widest horses were subdued was astonishing
The first trial was that of kicking or "buck
ing" mare, which, her owner said, had allow
ed no rider on her back for period of al
least FIVE years. She became tame and gen
tie in about as many minutes, and allowed
herself to be ridden about without sign Of
her former wildness. The means by which
the result was accomplished consisted of a
piece of light rope, which was passed around
the front jaw of the mare, just above the
upper teeth, crossed in her mouth and thence
secured back of her neck. 1t was claimed
that no horse would kick or jump when thus
secured, and that "bucking" horse, af
ter receiving the treatment few times, will
abandon his vicious way forever. A very
simple method was also shown by which a
kicking horse could be shod. 1t consisted
in connecting the animals head and tail, by
means of rope fastened to the tail, and then
to the bit, and drawn tightly enough to in
cline the horses head to one side. This, it is
claimed, makes it absolutely impossible for
the horse to kick on the side of the rope
At the same exhibition horse, which fol-
many years had to be bound to the ground
to be shod, suffered the blacksmith to operate
on him without attempting to kick while Sc
cured in the manner described. Exchange.

THE WORK OF THE SPIRIT.


1t is very important that we have clear and
correct notions concerning the personality
and ofice-work of the Holy Spirit. Speak
ing in general and comprehensive way, the
ofice-work of the Holy Spirit consists in
making an application of the redemption pur-
chased by Jesus Christ. This includes the
whole; but we should have an idea what par
ticular things are included in this whole.
Under the Old Testament times, some
things were included in the office. work of the
Holy Spirit, that are not now included In
other words, part of the Spirits work was
completed soon after the cruci6xion and as
cension of the Saviour. The canon of Scrip
ture was completed, probably about ninety
six years after the commencement of the
Christian era Prior to this, from the time
of Moses, and probably before that, God had,
at sundry times and in divers manners, COM
municated his will unto the children of men.
In other words, holy men spake as they were
moved by the Holy Ghost. This moving by
the Holy Ghost is what we call inspired.
After the canon Of Scripture was completed
the Holy Ghost ceased to inspire men. It is
Bible-taught truth, and it is also in accord
ance with the experience Of Gods people, that
the Holy Spirit still moves men, but not as he
once did. No man will ever be selected to
write another inspired epistle or another book
of Psalms.
During Old Testament times, the Holy
Spirit sometimes conferred upon individuals
temporary miraculous powers. The gift of
prophesying was conferred upon Saul and
Zacharias and upon many other individuals
Shortly after the ascension of the Saviour, his
disciples were miraculously endowed with the
ability to speak, Auently, languages which
they had never learned, and perhaps had
never tried to learn. In fact, it is highly
probable that they were enabled to speak Ian.
guages which they had never heard spoken.
We feel safe in asserting that these mlracu-

CoL1c.-The symptoms of collie, one Of the
most fatal diseases to horse, are readily de-
tected. The horse invariably scrapes with
his fore feet, kicks at the stomach, shifts
about, turns around, smells the floor, lies
down, rolls, remains for time on his back
and breathes heavily throughout. At re-
cent meeting of the London Farmer Club, q
relief and sure cure was presented by gen
tleman who has been all his life among horses
When the horse shows symptoms Of an at
tack of collie, apply at once a horse-cloth OF
wooden rug, wrung out of boiling water, tc
the stomach and up the sides, and cover with
another couple of cloths to retain the heat
As they cool renew the cloths as often as
needful A large bran poultice, as hot as
can be borne, is equally effective, and retains
the heat longer.

HoRsEsHoHlNG-Some 90 SO far as to ar
que that the horse is better without shoes
than with them, as they are commonly made
and put on. We know farmers who never
shoe their mules, and they are never lame
and always in good order. We have seen
horses and mules in the mountains Of Georgia
and South Carolina, that had never had a
shoe on, and did not seem to suffer from it.
The worst of it is if you begin it you must
continue it. Shoeing is expensive business,
there is no doubt about that. 1t is often bad
ly done; in fact, very few smiths know any
thing about the anatomy of horses foot, or
what should be the object of shoeing. There
is no doubt but the shoes are generally too
heavy. A few pounds of extra weight on a
horses back may not amount to very much,
but to put few pounds at the end of the
leg, where the weig ght is at the long end Of the
lever, makes considerable difference. In a
report to the Mississippi Board Of Agricul
ture, the writer says: ut must be borne in
mind that the frog is the natural level of the
horses foot, and the hoof must be trimmed,
keeping that ever in view." Another gentle.
man remarked, that his way was to get lev
ell bearing of the horses foot and keep the
frog on the ground. Never have heel and
toe calk except when actually necessary in
winter. The French farriers seem to have
studied the subject very carefully, and they
put Just as little iron on horses foot as pos
sible. How different the general practice
here. Our smiths put on as much iron as
they can, pare and burn the hoof, and cut
down the frog.-Ezchange.

rheumatism in the arm. The stomach
is affected with loss of appetite and
sickness; the bowels in general are
costive, sometimes alternative with lax;
the head is troubled with pain, accom-
panied with dull, heavy sensation in
the back part. There is generally a
considerable loss of memory, accom-

ing left undone something which ought
to have been done. A slight, dry cough
is sometimes an attendant. The patient
complains of weariness and debility; he
is easily startled, his feet are cold or
burning, and he complains of prlckly
sensation of the skin; his spirits are
low; and although he is satisfied that
exercise would be beneficial to him,
yet he can scarcely summon up forti-
tude enough to try it. In fact, he dis
trusts every remedy. Several of the
above symptoms attend the disease, but
cases have occurred where few of them

A COLD CHURcH.-A good story is told of
Rev. Hadley Proctor, who once preached
in Rutland, VT. One bitter cold day when
the church was but half warmed, brother
Proctor had for his text very warm verse,
addressed to those on the left hand and, like
the rest of us, he seemed to feel the antago-
nism between the weather and his subject.
Just before the benediction he leaned for
ward and said to one of the deacons in front
of the pulpit, in tones loud enough to be heard
by all, and in the nasal twang that can only
be appreciated by those who have listened to
the venerable Eli Jones:
Brother Griggs, do see that this house is
better warmed this afternoon; it's no kind Of
use for me to warn sinners of the dangers of
hell, when the very idea is comfort to then" :"

CURRAN AND THE JUDeE-The following
has has been told of CrrFan-: An Irish judge
frequently annoyed counsel by interrupting
their statements to the jury. Mr.. Curran,
being one day pleading before him, described
in very forcible terms, how his feelings had a
short time before been narrowed by what he
had seen in a neighboring market when a
butcher was engaged in killing pig. he
said that the string by which the pig was
tied broke, and he then described the man
ner in which the man with the murderous
weapon in his hand rushed to door out Of
which little boy was coming.
"And he killed the boy?" said the judge
"No. my lord" replied Mr.. Curran; "your
lordship sometimes jumps too soon at conclu'
sions. It was not the boy, but the pig"
