Rangers operating in that country
were followed by pack-mules in charge

to form hollow square, place the mules
inside, and to throw out skirmishers to
fire into the animals. If the leader could
be struck, the charge would be broken.

The Dead Alive.

That g truth is stranger than fiction"
is once more aptly exemplifed by the
following curious narrative, which
reaches the N0s6O7se from it's correspond
ent at Lucca. Some years ago q native
of Casamaggiore emigrated to America,
leaving behind him his wife and two
children. Shortly after mis- arrival in
the States, where he promptly found
lucrative employment, he sent 100 lire
to the priest of his native place, to be by
him conveyed to his family. A few
months later this remittance was fol-
lowed by n second of / 900 lire, and, at
subsequent periods, other sums were
forwarded in the same manner, to the
total amount of $4,000 lire, or 81 600
Fhe priest, however, to whom all this
money was transmitted put it in his own
pocket. One day, having come TO the
conclusion that he had derived sufficient
profit from his agency, he sent for the
woman and informed her, with many
consolatOry reflections, that her husband
was dead. About the same time he
wrote to the emigrant, stating that the
latter's wife and children had succumbed
to an epidemic which had ali but de-
populated Casamaggiore, and inelosed
in his letter an official certificate of their
death an burial. 1t appears that after a
while, the emigrant, believing himself
to be a widower, married again. He
prospered in business, became a wealthy
man, and, a few months ago, determined
TO revisit the place of his birth In due
time he arrived with his second wife and
flmily Mt Clearinghouse, where he took
up his quarters at the principal inn
Strolling out to look up some of his old
acquaintances, a little beggar boy fol-
lowed him, importuning him for aims
Something in the child's appearance
arrested his attention. He asked the
boy his name, and found him to be his
own son. Further inquiry soon elected
the fact that his wife and two children
were living, but in the utmost poverty
and distress. The reverend embezzler,
when confronted with his victims, offered
TO refund the 25s000 lire; but the affair
had come to the knowledge of the police
authorities, who refused to permit any
compromise, and arrested the holy man,
against whom proceedings have been
taken by the State. Meanwhile, his
unfortunate exparishioner finds himself
saddled with two living wives and fam
lies, between whose claims upon his
affections and support there is, equitably
speaking, nothing to choose either way

AGRICULTURAL NOTES.

EGG-EATING BY PULLETs.-A CORE
spondent of the american Poultry Yard
writes as follows: AS a general thing
this habit is introduced by the accidental
breaking of an egg. 1t may be intro
duced by throwing egg-shells from the
kitchen into the poultry-yard; they
should be broken into small pieces be-
fore giving them to fowls. Sometimes
eggs crack by freezing in cold weather,
and thus expose a portion of their con-
tents. Eggs are very delicious morsels
to hens. If onefowl acquires this habit,
all the others in the same flock will
soon learn it too, if confined where they
can see what is going one and they al
ways make a rush at whatever one of
their fellows is eating. The habit Is one
very hard to break; killing the whole
flock seems to be a desperate resort,
but if the breed is not especially valua
BILE, and the flock a small one, it is really
the best possible method, saving time
and money in the end. The following
method may be tried first, however: Let
the fowls have free range in summer, or
draw them off to a locality at some little
distance from the nests in winter, and let
the nests be so covered as to be quite
dark, and prevent the laying hens from
seeing the eggs. Hens will not stay in
a dark nook to scratch and peck, al
though they prefer a rather dark place
to lay in. Scatter wheat screenings,
pounded chandler scraps, or other at
tractive food among straw, or some such
light stuff, to induce them to spend
their time scratching for it. Their visits
to the nest viii then be only on the
legitimate business of laying. If fowls

tern which is conspicuous in the smaller
university towns in Germany can scarce
ly be said to exist in Strasburg. A col

The students, almost without exception,
have the reputation of being diligent
pursuers of culture, and are not of the
character which supplies fighting ma

A Miser,s Miserable Lie.

Hugh McGlinn, proprietor of the
Rhode Island Livery Stable on Fourth
Street, died Tuesday afternoon, aged 90
wears. The deceased left behind him
an estate valued at over $500, OOO
McGlinn, it is stated, acquired his large
fortune by leading an extremely penuri-
Gus existence, and denying himself even
the common necessaries of life. He
occupied himself in the most mental
emplovments about his establishment,
and he devoted himself to the making
and boarding of money. For years he
occupied 8 loft in his stable, where he
died He was unable to read or write,
and was obliged to intrust. the manage
ment of his business to an agent. In
his last illness he refused to pay aphysi-
clan to attend him unless he would
guarantee a care. He left viii be-

wife. who, with his daughter, is earning
a living in Rhode Island as domestic
servant. He separated from his wife

in Texas Thirty Years Ago.

The word mustang is a corruption of
mestenO, the Mexican name for wild
horse. Many years ago there were
thousands, no doubt millions, of those
animals in Texas In 1849, and for sew
eral years thereafter, they were numer-
GUS in the region between the Nueces
River and the Rio Grande. They were
found further north, but not in such
numbers. Immense herds of wild horses
could be seen grazing on the prairies.
When they saw any one approaching
the leader would often move to the
front and make a reconnaissance. If
things did not suit him, he would give
his head a peculiar toss, wheel and
sound the note of alarm. These demon
STATIONS would be followed by prompt
movement on the part of the herd, some
times to the front, but more usually TO
the rear. They would wheel into line,
change front, move in line, or in column,
with as much precision and order as
cavalry. 1t was wonderful to witness
how well they were drilled and dis
ciplined. In the event a retreat was or
dered, the leader would move in the
rear for a while. If any Jagged or
struggled they were very apt to feel his
teeth, if not his heels. On some Occa-
sions a movement to the front was or
dered. 1t was a charge in line, or in
column, proudly headed by the leader.
This was the case sometimes when

ton.
The records of medical practice are
full of illustrations of the influence of
the imagination, for good or evil, over
the functions of the body; and
philosophy finds in them a key to the
wonderful persistence of many popular
superstitions. The firm belief that any
disastrous physiological result, even
death itself, will surely follow a given
act or occurrence, is very apt to bring
about the dreaded calamity; and every
repetition of the seeming sequence of
cause and effect, tends to confirm and
strengthen the mischievOus belief. As
a means of counteracting this tendency
of perverted Imagination, charms often
play a really beneficial part. The pro-
lection is as imaginary as the dreaded
evil; but, assuminga telief in the fcti-
tious danger-a belief strongly tending
to make the danger real, the charm
substitutes a more hopeful belief, and
the danger ceases.
A curious illustration of this action
of the mind is reported from San Fran
cisco, in connection with a case of
TRANSMISSION of blood An aged negro,
at the point of death, was saved by this
operation - the blood (abOut eight
ounces) being taken from his wife's
arm. The man recovered, but the
woman went into a curious decline,
against which tonics and nourish-
ing food were of no avail. At last the
patient confided to the doctor the secret
of her ailment, which hept her from
resting day or night. 80 tell you, doc
tor" She said whisperingly, g its that
blood of mine the old man is carrying
about inside of him; and, doctor, when
that old man comes back, 1 want you to
give me my blood back The doctor,
seeing that the woman would not be APP
peased unless he complied with her re-
quest, promised to return the next day,
first informing her of the dangers of the
operation, and it was resorted to in the
most urgent cases. She would hear of
no explanations, but demanded that the
operation be gone through with. 1t was
accordingly done the next day, the doc
tor taking from the man about half an
ounce of blood and transfusing it into
the wOman's veins. After the opera
ton the woman frightened up percepti-
bly,, saying, 80 III be all right now, doc
tori And that the operation did prove
a success was fully demonstrated by the
sick woman, who began work few
hours afterward, declaring that the
50 doctor was a wonderful man, and now
that she's got her own blood back again
she was all right

ALLEGED NEW PRESERVING AGENT.
in the course of a series of expert
ments made by Mr.. H. Jannarch for de-
vising a method of separating the crys-
talliZable sugar from the molaSseS, a
double salt of borate of potassium and
sodium was accidentally formed, which
exerted an antiseptic influence on the
sugar. Further experiment showed this
salt to be a most powerful antiseptic
agent. 1t is now being made in larger
quantities by dissolving in water equal
quantities of chloride of potassium,
nitrate OF sodium and boric acid, and
evapOrating to dryness after filtering.
The salt obtained is, of course, not a
pure bOrate, but a mixture of potassiO-
nitric bOrate, potassium nitrate, and
sodium chloride. Its action is very
prompt and continues undiminished for
a long time. 1t has no injurious effect
either as regards taste or smell or health
mess of the substances impregnated with
it. 1t is easily soluble in water and
quite deliquescent, so that it has to be
kept in closely stOppered bottles. 1t is
at present sold for 25 cents a pound. In
Germany it has been extensively used
already by butchers, sausage-makers,
tanners, ETC.; but its most important
use is at present in the manufacture of
butter and cheese from sweet milk.
When butter is made from sweet milk
in the ordinary manner, the milk must
be kept very cold; when the preserv-
ing SALT as it is called in Germany, is
used, the milk may be kept at or
binary temperature without sour
ing, the remaining sweet milk
may be worked up into a superior
quality of cheese. If Is grains of the
salt are added for each quart of milk,
the latter will keep sweet for at least a
week. Fresh meat, game, ETC., may be
prepared by dipping it into solution of
l pound of the salt in 6 pints of water
When the meat is intended to be kept
for a very long period, the meat is
rubbed in well with the powdered salt in
the proportion OF ID drains to each 2
pounds of meat. In "a hours the i'm
pregnatiOn is completed, and the meat
only needs to be dried. A piece of meat
prepared in this manner III January,
1877, was in perfectly good condition in
January, 1879. For picking the meat
is prepared in the same manner and
then placed between layers of a mixture
of pounds of common salt, 1-2 pound
preserving salt, and Ii pound of sugar.
In this way the largest hams can be
sailed in four days. For preserving
skins, from 1-2 to pounds are used, ac-
cording to size. Eggs are placed for Is
minutes into a solution Of l ounce of the
salt in a quart of water. To preserve
beer, wine, etc., it is sufficient to rinse
the bottles, previous to filling them,
with solution of the salt in the proper
of l. 10, and adding to the beverage
itself s grains per quart. For fish, lob
sters, oysters, fruit, and vegetables the
preparation has also been used with the
best success DealtScbe Ge1Oer6e-Z eitu1sg.
