Early Maturity of Farm Stock.

By the common admission of all
cOmpetant to form opinions on the mat
ter (says an English writer) remunera-
tive meat production cannot be insured
at the present day without early ma
turity and rapid fattening. Young
pigs, fed from birth rapidly and sent to
the pork shops at about six weeks old,
may be made to pay, but the produc-
ton of bacon can only be accomplished
at loss. Lambs taught to nibble Gil
cake as soon as they will eat anything,
and kept steadily moving SO that they
fatten as they grow, may at about ten
months old be brought to heavier
weights of carcass than our fathers
used to bring their sheep to after
keeping them three or four years.
And cattle-feeding, to be rendered re-
munerative, must be conducted pre-
cisely in the same way. The calf must
never be stinted OF food, but have
plenty of milk at first, and then milk
and meal with little oil cake. As he
grows bigger and devours more of the
natural food of the farm, whether it be
hay and root pulp or green food, por-
ton Of milk may be taken OFT, or skim
milk thickened with inseeI meal, or
linseed boiled to a mucilage, may be
substituted for the whole milk, but
when this is done the allowance of oil
cake should lie increased. The calf
should at all times be fed so as to go
ON steadily putting on flesh more and
more as it grows, never being allowed
to have check at any time, but 10 en-
Joy one continuous, progressive devel-
! opment, with greater and still greater
allowances of oil cake or meal, the re-
suit of which will be the production of
two year old beef. Well-bred young
steers and heifers, in short, may be
ripened into maturity at two years old !,
if only they are of the right strains of
blood, for great deal depends on this.
Practical men of great experience are
we'll aware what astonishing differences
present themselves in the capabilities
of animals to lay on flesh rapidly and
arrive at maturity quickly. OF num-
ber Of stock picked up ndisccimlnately
at fair or market the proportion of
"nee 'er- -do-weli' ones would be large,
while others would thrive to u wish.
Here and there few excellent judges
of stock may be found capable of pick
ing out the good doers from bad at a
glance ere their capabilities have been
tried. But this Is rare gift and can
scarcely be termed fest of skill to be
acquired; consequently the necessity
of graziers who desire to produce two
year-oId beef on large scale rearing
their own stock manifests itself.

A Jewish Wedding in Morocco.

A gentleman who attended wedding
in Tangier recently. describing the GER
emony, says: cat about ten o'clock
the lady friends assembled at the house
of the brides father, arrayed in char
acteristic gala dress. The bride, who
wore scarlet dress embroidered with
gold. sat at the top of the room, her
face thickly powdered, whilst her fin-
gers and nails were stained with henna,
with which dye curious devices were
painted on her hands, Among her
rings was the never-failing charm worn
to ward off the evileye. In one corner
of the room four Moorish musicians
sat cross-legged, chanting Arabic songs
of love, to the accompaniment of d
guitar, violin, and tambourine. TIE
Young unm arried ladies wore European
dresses made in Spanish style. AT 5 p. NJ.
the ladies proceeded to another apart
ment to partake of green tea and sweets.
At six the ladies made way for the gen
tlemen-the bridegroom being absent,
according to custom, frem the brides
house. The festivities were continued
until eight, and the bride was thea COW
cred with the marriage veil, her head
being surmounted by white silk head
dress adorned with flowers. After en-
bracipg her. father, she was conducted
to spacious palanquin, and was car
ried to her future home, where her in
tended husband awaited her. On ar
rival she was led to a seat on g dais in
the apartment where the ceremony was
to be solemnized, her mother sitting on
one side of her, and the bridegroom s
mother on the other. Here she re-
mained for some time, until the com
pany gradually dispersed. She was
then confded to the charge of her flu
ture mother.in-la under whose care
she remained until nine o'clock the fol-
lowing morning, when the marriage
was celebrated in the presence Of about
fifty friends. The bride aga in took her
seat on the diis, whilst the bridegroom,
wearing talith and phylacteries, his
dress being European, even to the silk
hat, stood at the foot under the over
hanging canopy. Prayers were said by
the officiating minister, and the Gus
tomary glass broken by the bridegroom,
after which congratulations were offered
to the ewly-wedded couple. At eleven
o'clock the ladies breakfasted, followed
by the gentlemen, and at 2 P. NJ. the
company dispersed. Next day the
young husband went to render homage
to his mother in-law by kissing her
hand. and dance on the following

enemy and said that he was the only
soldier he ever heard of who told the
whole truth in case of defeat. Let lne
tell another instance of Hampton's kind
heartedEess, and then the reader can
possibly Judge why it is that he is the
idol of the colored race of the South.
Recently, it will be remembered, he
went to Mississippi, on the death of his
son. While there he met three old
slaves of his. They called to pay their
respects, and in an apologetic way told
Massa Wade that they had to fight
for their freedom and hoped he did not
feel bad about it. On inquiry he
learned of them that all three had been
wounded on board the Monarch during
the war. They knew nothing of how
their account stood. or might stand
under the law, with the United States
Treasury, and the generals first act
when he came back was to obtain them
pensions. That's the way the ''rebel
brigadiers are depriving the Southern
negroes of their rights.
"I verify believe" said friend, in
narraing the incident, that if Wade
Hampton had felt disposed he could
establish monarchy in the Palmetto
State tomorrow, SO absolute is his
sway. He could start a peerage, found
landed estates and divide them up among
the Earl of Charleston, the Marquis Of
Edgefeld and the Duke of Beaufort,
and the people would enthusiastically

Anecdote of Bayard Taylor.

Those who write wit. ..se may take,
perhaps, q hint from the following
anecdote told by Mr.. G. r. Congdcn,
in the New York Tribune, of Bsyard
Taylor. He says, His desk was next
to mine in the Office, which made it
convenient for me to apply to him for
general information, and saved NE the
trouble of walking across the room to
consult aa encyclopaedia. Happy the
newspaper writer who has such we'll
informed associate at his elbow4
"Mr. Taylor was an infallib.e re-
source when one was at loss for the
right word, and his taste, especially in
poetical diction, was entirely trust
worthy. Shall l repeat an inst .nce of
its exercise?
''As I was submitting to its final re-
vision my 'Carman Seculare'- for [
wrote about the centennial anniversary
of the Republic, as SO many of the
makers, not to mention the real
poets id-obiection was made to the
word 'fogs' in the line, From where
the sun 11ogs up its golden steeds."

my own judgement, that the word

in rather helpless state asking every
body what should put in its place.
"Some were for drives; others sug-
gested whips but when consulted
Mr.. Taylor, he instantly suggested
'goads', and 'goads' it stands to-day
perhaps better word than fogs be-
cause less hackneyed and colloquial.
"This anecaote is related specially
for the benefit of those young ladies
and gentleman who write with ease.
and forget that easy Writing is usually
as Sheridan said, 'dreadfully hard
reading.'
'Tbey cannot have better example
than Mr.. Taylor. Of course, some of
his works are of greater Importance
than others; some of them have been
forgotten, and others are destined to
be, for his early productions are not to
be, compared with the ripened fruit OF
his middle age; but always, from the
beginning to the end, he was pains
taking, methodical, a neat as we'll as
dexterous literary laborer.
Il douot if in any OF his poems a
siovenly line or an intolerable rhyme
can be found.'

Lip Language.

There was an Interesting exhibition
lately in London of the new way of
teaching the deaf and dumb to speak,
and to understand by the motion of the
lips.
There is school for this purpose, in
London, of sixty pupils, founded chief
ly through the benevolent exertions of
the Baroness Mayer de Rothschild.
The school assembled at Grosvenor
House, the abode of the Duke of West
minister, now the richest nobleman in
England; and numerous body of
guests were invited to witness the pro-
gress they had made.
The teacher, Mr.. Van Praagh, showed
the steps of the process by which mere
infants are taught both to understand
and use the lip-language, and, at an ear
ly age, to frame sentences and hold easy
conversation. a gentleman among the
audience asked one of the pupils to
name a member of the House of Lords,
The answer Immediately came. "Lord
Beaconsfeld. Another was asked to
give the lame of a leading member of
the House of Commons. Mr.. Glad
stone." was the reply.
The sounds they make are monoton-
Gus, as they cannot emphasize or infect
their voices. But the main point is,
they can make themselves under
stood.
This blessed invention of enabling
the dumb to speak and the deaf to
understand, ought to have been made
at an earlier day. We read in one of
Voltaire's letters of 1860: "We have in
Geneva woman hundred and two
years old, who has three deaf and
dumb children. They converse with
their mother Gan educated LADY, from
morning until evening, sometimes by
moving their lips, sometimes by NOV
ing their fingers. They play all games
very we'll, know all the gossip of the
city, and tell funny stories about their
neighbors as we'll as the greatest talk
ers can. They understand everything
that is said to them by the move
ment of the lips, and, in a word, they
are very good company"

How DID SHE KNOW ?-It was re-
lated by one who was present, and we
deem the incident worth putting in
print.
Not long since an eminent divine,
who has taken great interest in saving
and elevating the poor children OF sin
and shame, was present at social
gathering where lady of the fashion
able ranks-for whom a husband 8
money could purchase silks and dia-
monds much IN re readily than it could
furnish her wi n brains-ofered re-
mark which die not strike him as being
well-chosen, or iady-like. Another of
the company h d alluded to discourse
which he had delivered a few evenings
previously, on the subject of "Life
Ameng the Unfortunate.
"Yes, yes" SAID our obtrusive lady,
smiling behind her paint Extensively
" heard that lecture; aAd, doctor. I
thought then that would like to ask
you how you were able-you a minis
ter of the Gospel-to describe those
horrible places SO accurately ?"
And she smirked and smiled insinu-
atingly. The clergyman returned her
a look that startled her, and calmly, but
with pointed significance, replied
Madam-how do you know that my
description of those places was SO accu-

Founder and Laminitis.

Founder is a disease which requires
the most prompt and etficacious treat
ment, and unless speedy relief be at
forded the complaint increases and
soon degenerates into more serious
form of disease, and proves extremely
difficult to cure. 1t may arise from
various causes. The following, we be-
lieve, are those by which it is generally
produced: /. Drinking freely of cold
water when heated by violent exercise,
particularly when such exercise has
been continued for some time. 2 Ex-
posure to cold wind or rain under the
same circumstances. 3. 1mmoderate
allowance of corn. This complaint
consists of inflammation or fever, and
begins with an appearance of weakness
or loss of vital energy, then followed
by stiffness of the legs and body.
At the first attack of this malady,
immersing the feet in tubs of warm
water for twenty.four hours will gen
orally 0e found an cffectual remedy ;
but if it be neglected, it is most com
monty succeeded by laminitis. Lam
initis exists in the form of local in
fammation in the foot, which very
soon Giffuses itself to the laminated
structure, and does great injury to
these important members, occasion
ing severe pain and lameness, and prov
ing extremely difficult to cure. When
we consider that the horses weight is
suspended by these lamina, as car
riage by its springs, and though the
bottom Of the internal foot is in con-
tact with the sole, it, nevertheless,
does not press upon it considerably,
except when the horse is in motion,
and the back part of the laminae elon-
gates and decends upon the sole in a
small degree, it will readily appear
that when these elastic membranes
are no longer capable of supporting
and moving under the weight, the in
ternal foot must press upon the sole
which hattens or coGvexes it, and is
more commonly termed tke drop sole
or pummice foot When laminae are
thus affected, the malady generally
proceeds to a complete separation be-
tween the crust and the internal parts.
The crust then loses its proper form,
and becomes fatter, appearing as if it
was forced upward from the ground
When this separation takes place, the
accidental cavity is filled with pre-
cipitation of horny fungous NATTER
Western R4r0s.
