AN interesting incident occurred to
Gen. Grant while he was enjoying the
hospitalities of Louisville, where, quite
naturally, he was thrown into the socie-
ty of many ex-Confederate officers. AS
he stood before a Tennessee delegation
his eyes CHANGED to fall upon man who
stood apart from the others. For a mo-
ment Grants head went down, as though
he were in deep thought. Then he step
ped forward, grasped the strangers
hand, and said, 81 have seen you be-
fore, sir, but where 1 can not call to
mind" eyes, General" said the
stranger, ''you saw me at Fort Donel-
son. 1 then commanded a Tennessee

my men knocked my way out of the fort,
avoiding capture "Oh, yes,' re-
sponded the ex-President, 81 recollect
you perfectly, now; you are Col. Will

mother; or it may be an indeinable
something which is neither one nor the
other, and which yet bring back both.
Something is unexpectedly found to be
the same; something rehabilitates the
past and sets it on its legs again. The
mere sight of the person is jump into
that past. This past, indeed, always re-
mains in our minds; but we do not know
in how indistinct lines till it assumes this
sudden embodiment. For few brief
moments the leading facts of remote
consciousness take consistency, impart-
ing fuller grasp of life as a whole, and
not mere succession of changing views.
1t is true that something that is gone in
the observer, sense of loss somewhere,
provokes him to injurious comparisons;
hence it is that the daughters who thus
awaken memory have SO often to endure
the reproach, implied if not spoken,
that they ere not equal to their mothers
before them.-Erchange. 'i-.

AN ALLEGED CURE FOR CONSUME
TIoN.-Itis reported that Prof. SCHUYLER
of the University of Griefswald, Prussia,
has discovered mode of treating con-
sumptives, which will cure in cases
where the lungs are not too far gone
and where the patient has some strength
left. BY experiments with rabbits he
has come to believe that the breath of
consumptives is poisonous, and that bac-
terra are sown by it to become the cause
of tubercles in others. Reasoning on
this fact, he selected benzoate of soda
as the best among substances which kill
bacteria, and has found that it destroys
the tubercles. The remedy is admins
tered by inhalation, or in some cases by
sub-cutaneous injection. In IL inhala-
ton, the weight of the benzoate of soda
used is to the weight of the patients

the case of a man weighing 140 pounds,

water. The remedy should be inhaled

the medical authorities summoned to
their assistance detachment Of the fire

A Pennsylvania Minister'S Peculiar
Mental Malady.

"I FREQUENTLY take carriage drives
with the ladies and like their company.
1t is a pleasant thing if the lady
is pretty and lively. She will tell you
pretty love story as you drive
along" Thus spoke Rev. James F.
Schultz at Reading, Pa, recently, dur
ing his discourse on the death of Miss
Leinbach, whose dying request was that
he should officiate at her funeral. Rev.
Dr.. Bausman, of St. Paul Memorial
Church, made a respectful attempt to
interrupt the clergyman, but Mr..
Shultz continued for some time to dis
course in rambling way upon the
pleasures of taking ladies carriage rid
ing. Mr.. Shultz is about 45 years of
age and unmarried. He thought much
of Miss Leinbach, and she had deep
respect for him. He left the house of
mourning and went to his home, looking
haggard and pale. On Saturday he
showed unmistakable signs of insanity.
He piled up books about the floor and
announced that they were holy seats for
seven ministers of as many different de-
nominations, who would call upon him
for the purpose of reading the first chap
ter of Revelations in concert. Before
dusk he lighted all the gas-burners, say
ing the house must be Illuminated in
honor of the event. He threatened any
one with instant death who interfered
with his plans. Mrs. Gehman, his host
ess, then went. to a neighbours house,
and in her absence the crazy clergyman
broke up her household furniture gener-
ally, and, upon her return and protest.
ing, drove her and Mrs. Gehr from the
house with brass stair-rod. He then
sailed forth, hatless and bootless, with
stair-rod in hand, and beat Wilson HUI
Der and two other men severely, but
upon assaulting fisherman, was in turn
knocked senseless into the street, where
the police found him. After his removal
to the lookup friends called and identi-
fed him, and he was taken back to his
boarding-house, where he lay uncon-
scious until morning. AS soon as he
can be removed safely he will be taken
to the farmhouse of his brother in
Montgomery County. Some say that
the cause of the minister's madness
was overwork, others that it was love
affair. The fact is that he was deranged
some time ago, but for year past he
has been looked upon as sane, and has
preached regularly aud acceptably. The
probability is that the death Of Miss
Leinbach so affected him that this old
malady was again brought on.

Breaking Colts.

THIS subject, says T. F. Kinsel in
the Ohio Farmer, is Of great Importance,
not only to farmers, but to all who own
or drive horses. A colt improperly
trained to harness may, by bad conduct,
endanger the life of the driver at any
time. l have trained good many colts
to drive double and single, and to
bride. To get q good, true, trusty
team, [ would rather have two of the
same age and train them together, first
to double and then to single harness. I
would never try to handle colt without
using " the cord y to teach him that he
can be handled at will. The idea of try
ing to break colt by main strength has
long since been exploded, and has been
the cause of upsetting the mans temper
and teaching the colt lesson he never
ought to learn, viz, that he is stronger
than his master If a man keeps his
temper and knows what he wants the
colt to do, and patiently teaches him, |
have the first one to see that ever re-
fused to do the work called for when he
understood the order or command. A
horse has more sense than he is gener-
ally credited with, and when treated
with good Judgment in the first hand
ling rarely turns out vicious. They
ought to be handled with harness on
before they are hitched up, and
the work ought to be thoroughly
and patiently done Farmers have too
little time and expect entirely too
much of young colt when first hitched
up. know a party in Kentucky who
sells scores Of colts yearly, and he
stated to me that he was in the habit
of training all his weanlings to walk
about in a little light sulky, and that
they never forget it. BY patience, a
weiLbred horse can be taught anything
that belongs to his business, but not by
force or cruelty. You may whip and
drive the dunghill horse, but with hot
ter blood different course is necessary.
It's strange, too, how poorly trained
farmers horses are, when it would pay
so well to have them handy, safe, trusty
and prompt when in harness. A man
from the city will pay q good round
price for a ''driver'' that can be left
hitched near the cars, and Will pass
busses, steam thrashers, etc., in safety
to himself and family, A span Of such
colts will sell at a good price and pay as
well for their training as anything q
farmer can raise. Twenty years ago
cut a great deal of grass and wheat
from home, and drove farmers teams
to reaper and mower, and l state that
not one team in ten would take hold Of
the bit. Now, think a team that won't
take the bit and drive up true and steady
on the lines are poor excuses, and ought
10 be trained over.

THE DAIRY.

IT is estimated that the amount oi
butter made in the Ohio creameries is
10000, 900 pounds per annum.
THERE are many farmers who have
extra good butter cows but who do not
know It. They have poor pastures in
summer and poor shelter and indifer.
ent feed in winter. They have no CON
Veniences for making butter, no ar
rangements for keeping the milk cool in
summer and frequently in winter it is
exposed to the odors Of the kitchen.
DR.. L. MCLEAN, of the Brooklyn, N.
Y, Veterinary Hospital, who has been
examining the COWS in the stables in
Brooklyn, asserts that three-fourths of
them are sick with consumption, pleuro-
pneumonia, or Inflammation Of thepleu-
ra and lung and other diseases. The
milk from these COWS, he said, was
poisonous and liable to cause great
deal of sickness.
IT pays to feed literally COWS giving
milk. Butter is high and now is the
time to feed proftably. Every COW
should be made to produce as much
butter as possible. Whenever butter is
twenty cents per pound or more, there
is money in the dairy business, and the
man who feeds most literally and judi
ciously, will make the greatest profit.
Meal, both cotton-seed and corn, roots,
pumpkins and fodder corn should all
come in for share of attention as profit
able food for dairy COWS. Whatever
kinds of food are used, the cows should
have all that they can proftably turn
into milk. Many men feel that they
cannot afford to buy grain for feeding
to COWS at this season of the year. Let
them take a different view and ask
themselves if they can afford not to buy
grain to feed COWS when butter is as
high as it is atpresent. t.-LeaOistom Jour-

A Greenback Dog.


A MUTILATED fve-dollar note was re-
ceived at the Treasury to-day from Ma
rion County, Indiana, and redeemed.
Accompanying it was the following affi-
davit; s'Before me, John E. Scott, a
Notary Public in and for said county
and State, comes Walter Rivers, who
being duly sworn deposes and says that
on or about the I'd day of September,
1880, in the City of indianapolis, dog
owned by the deponent did feloniously
and with malice intent seize fve-dollar
bill numbered B 56,460, series 1875
and bank number 40, and after chawing
off the right-hand lower corner and the
entire left-hand edge of the aforesaid
bill, in spite Of all due effort on the part
of deponent succeeded In swallowing
the same, and no amount Of after effort
in choking the aforesaid dog avaiied to
recover the torn portion of said bill
and, furthermore, depOnent declares the
said dog to be duly licensed by the City
of indianapolis under number 1877, taxes
paid in full to May /, 1881, and seeks to
obtain from the honorable Treasurer Of
the United States all proper relief in the

A Test Of Pronunciation.

THE following rather curious piece OF
composition was recently placed upon
the blackboard at teachers institute,
and q prize of Webster's Dictionary
offered to any person who could read it
and pronounce every word correctly.
The book was not carried off, however,
as twelve was the lowest number of mis-
takes in pronunciation made: ga sac
rilegious son of Belial, who suffered
from bronchitis, having exhausted his
finances, in order to make good the de-
ticit resolved to ally himself to comely,
lenient and docile young lady of the Ma
lay or Caucasian race. He accordingly
purchased calliope and coral necklace
of chameleon hue, and securing a suit
of rooms at a principal hotel, he en-
gagged the head waiter as his coadjutor.
He then dispatched letter of the most
unexceptional calligraphy extant, invit-
ing the young lady to matinee. She
revolted at the idea, refused to consider
herself sacrifcable to his desires, and
sent polite note of refusal, on receiv-
ing which he procured carbine and
bowie-knife, said that he would not now
forge fetters hymeneal with the queen,
went to an isolated spot, severed his
iugular vein, and discharged the con-
tents of his carbine into his abdomen.
The debris was removed by the Coron-

hausted, finances, deficit, comely, lem

Waiting TO Hear from Senator
Mcdonald.

The excitement over the western elections
was uhabated this morning. Conflicting dis
patches We're received early In the day; but.
upon the whole, the information to obtained
was meager. Mr. Lambert, OF the Philadelphia
Times, telegraphed from Indianapolis that the
democrats olaimed the state; that Senator
Mcdonald claimed the election OF Landars by
5000, and OF the remainder OF the democratic
ticket by 1000. This encouraged democrats
some, and bets were made even on the result ia
Indiana. About 10 o'clock General Hunton,
democratic member Of Congress from Virginia,
telegraphed Senator Mcdonald a. Indanapois
TO send some news as soon as it was possible to
give anything definite. An anxious crowd
waited around democratic headquarters for a
reply TO this dispatch until / O'Clock and the
1act that senator Mcdonald did not reply was
generally construed as unfaVOrable
