We are astounded when we read of
the millions possessed by Wm.-rH.
Vanderbilt-painfully astonished that
so little of it, If any, finds its way to
the relief of human misery or the pro.
motion of human good. Only think of
it. Our excellent contemporary, the
Graphic, sums up his bonded capital
thus !. early in March he had on the
books of the Treasury registered bonds
to the amount of $31, 600, 600. Since
that time he has had registered in his
name additional bonds to the amount
Of $50, 100000. He has at this time
S51, 600, 600 of registered bonds on the
books of the Treasury Department.,

The Terrible WoLf- Dog "Spfts.' p
TO THE EDITOR OF THE HERALD:-

10 THE EDITOR OF THE HERALD:-
The virulence of the bite of the
Spitz dog is, l think, owing to his wolf
blood, his bite being u swapping and
tearing one, made with all the viru-
lence of his savage and wolfish nature,
which is only suppressed, not eradica-
ted, by civilizing influences, and is
aroused in full force by very slight an
noyance. They should be banished
altogether from civilized home by law.
but if tolerated they should be treated
according to the dictates of common
sense. Originating as they do in cold
climate, they are provided by nature
with heavy coat of hair, sufficient to
protect themselves out doors in the
coolest nights of an Arctic winter. If
kept here during our long and warm
summers this Arctic coat should be
clipped entirely off and they should be
housed out of doors, at all times, but
especially at night, for as well might |
be compelled to wear fur garments
night and day in New York July as
for Spitz dog to be compelled to wear
its heavier and warmer covering at the
same time.
Any one having Spitz, if observant,
will have noticed the sufferings of his
pet as tie warm season APPROACHES,
when, if not relieved temporarily, in
termittent madness is sure to follow,
and it becomes a dangerous companion
for grown people, much less children,
which fact will account for the numer-
GUS casualties SO terrible in their ma
ture, ofwhich only half see the light
in your columns.

Forebodfnas of Spring.

No one needs to look at the trees OF
sods in the parks to learn that spring
is upon us. There is q general ten
dency to sit by open windows and to
catch just such colds as have been
numerous during April since windows
were first invented. There is the old
familiar habit of exchanging winter
clothing for something lighter, and of
subsequent wonder why all the un-
comfortable results of doing the same
thing in other seasons have been re-
membered in vain. Heavy eyes and
bilious compilations are to be seen on
all sides, ana the tendency to browse
in church is more maIk I'd Il an at any
other season of the year. Fires can
not die out rapidly or be rebuilt with
sufficient haste in the evening. The
least quickening of the step will start
perspiration, and almost the shortest
halt on the sidewalk to exchange a
fe W words with friend induces that
sense of soreness that people so fire.
quently have in spring without being
able to tell how they came by it. For
got en- odors come back again from
street and gutter, perhaps from cellar,
closet and pantry. Appetite grows

we'll as she did, nor does the family
appear particularly desirable to the
cook. Servants in general begin to
complain of their work, and masters
and mistresses who have any work to
do are also disinclined to exertion. A
single cool or rainy day may Danish
all these indications and hundred
others Ike them but they all come
trooping back again with the first
sunbeam and remain until the season
of which they are the forerunners ar
rlves and is settled.

SOME POINTS IN RELATION TO AN IMs
PoRTANT DOMESTIC INDUSTRY.
A committee of the Pennsylvania
State Agricultural Society has address,
ed communication to Hon. VIM. G.
LIE Due, U. s. Commissioner of Agri-
culture, relative to the International
Sheep and Wool Exhibition to be held
In Philadelphia during September,
1850. Following are the important
points of the circular
The returns from your Department
show, in States North .and South, de-
prived of their fertility by slovenly and
wasteful cultivation, that Sheep Hus-
bandry, SO well adapted to supply the
lost fertility, is scarcely, If at all, on
the increase
That Sheep are bred for mutton or
for wool only, when both, Of fine and
desirable quality, may be advantage
ously produced by means of one and
the same animal
That the benefit resulting from the
infusion Of pure blood into our native
fiocks, needs to be more widely known,
and the practice more generally fol-
lowed
That our country is capable of grow
ing every grade of ;combing and fine
wool, and that the 48, 900, 600 pounds
annually imported by our manufact-
urers, can be produced here
That immense tracts of waste land
in the Atlantic and the Western
Sta.es, may most proftably utilized by
the raising of sheep upon them. n
The value Of the careful and pro-
tracted Investigations carried on in
this and foreign countries, in order. to
determine the conditions most favor
able to fecundity, early maturity, pal
atable flavor of flesh, and fineness,
soun1ness, weight, strength, elasticity,
length, and lustre of the wool, can lie
made manifest by bringing together
the best animals and fieeces in an in
ternational competitive exhibition.
Commissioner LIE Due promptlyans
wered this circular and promised his
hearty aid and CO operation in the
proposed exhibition ~ 9i5 t{

All kinds of reasons have beer
brought forward to show why the Chi.
nese do not become naturaliSed in this
country. Most of the reasons alleged
are manifestiy absurd, but what i.
probably the real ore Is that the follow
ing unpleasant extract from the "Chi-
nese Penal Code," which Is Just made
known, is still enforced: call persons
renouncing their country and al
leg ance or devising the means therof
shall be beheaded,e and in the punish
ment of this Ofiense no distinction shall
be made between principals and acces-
sories. The property Of all such crimi-
mails shall be be. confscated and their
wives and children distributed as slaves
to the great officers of State. n
The parents, grandparents, brothers and
grandchildren of such criminals, wheth-
er habituaily living with them under the
same roof or not, shall be perpetually
banished to the distance of 2, 200 leagues.
All those who puTposely conceal OF, con-
nive at this crime shall be strangled.
Those who inform against criminals of
this class shall be rewarded with the
whole # their property. . If
the crime is contrived but not executed,
the principals are are 10 be strangled
and the accessories punished with blows
and banishment.l 'i.a err f0t
The Algerian coral fisheries are, now
open, and the fishermen are beginning
to hock to the grounds. The men are
generally Italians, from Sardinia
Genoa, Leghorn and Terre del Greco.
They club together on the outfit aud
boats, the former costing about $500 and
the latter $3.50. The value OF the coral
taken by each vessel amounts to 5000
to $4OO for the season of three or four
months. There are FIVE grades of the
coral, worth from twenty cents to two
dollars pound. The large round
coral goes to Russia, the finest pink to
China and inferier qualities to England
and America.
The other day dairymau called upon
Mr. kilshow, tho represe ntative of'the
OF the new Orleans Savings

the dollar, but we expect to pay 60
eventually" replied Mr.. Kilshaw. "But
are you sure you will at least be able to

was told me bylone present comes 10 my

he had done Chopin simply remarked,
"Of cOurse, YOU are great man, but /
am still greater than You, for eau i'm

openly avowed that he could not initiate

KINGSVILLE.

The past week has, in Kingsville, been
free from events Of a startling nature.
The only thing to relieve the monotony
being the arrival, on Friday afternoon, of
band of Gypsies. Various conjectures
were formed by people in town, as to their
nationality. Their complexion bordered
on the Italian, but they seemed to speak
English fiuently. Their first move after
entering town, was for pair of scales,
where, while being weighed, they indulg-
ed in such remarks as these: 'I've gained
twenty pounds" "Thats nothing I've
gained forty" While this was being en-
acted, Esq. Wright thought he recognized
one of them as his long lost son. This
led to other recognitions, and they proved
to be the party who left here two weeks
ago for camp on the Lake shore They
think Lake Erie a splendid pond. Long
may it wave. ..
The Misses Hattie Kingsbury, Mary
Kinnear, Leila Barrett, and Hattie Abbot
are packing their trunks for Chautau-
qua.
This is the season of the year when pic
mics are ripe, and the average "small boy"
is on his good behavior. Mrs. Ransom
and Miss Helen Richmond, of the Presby-
terian S. s., took their classes out for an
airing on the Lake, on Thursday. The
day was lovely, the cake first rate, the
bathing nice, the boat ride fine and all
are of the opinion that their teachers are
Just splendid"
A Star. Mr.. c. w. Star, of Indiana, has
fallen among us this week, and is expos
ing modern spiritualism, in a series of
lectures in the Town Hall.
Prof. Star is proving to be star Of the
first magnitude. He ADVERTISED to do any
thing that can be done 10y any spiritual me-
dium, and explain it by natural agencies,
and he is doing it. IRON WOOD.

WINDSOR

Eds. 1ei.-The golden grain that so
heavily burdened the earth has been most
ly secured, and haying is also nearly over
The north winds and cooler temperature
are very grateful.
The storm that passed over this section
on Friday night last, left its mark upon
tie barn Of Mr.. Heathman, south-we Of
windsor. II tore outa post, and seriously
mutilated the building, but fire did not fol.
low. Three men we're in the barn, who
suffered severe shocks, but soon rallied
again.
By another storm that passed over dur
ing the week, a young man who was at
work for Mr.. Hail. who works the farm OF
Edmond Clapp, in Huntsburg, started for
the cows. Finding no other shelter from
the fury OF the storm, be crawled into a
large hollow log, in the open pasture. As
he did not return that night, there was a
rally in the morning. Over one hundred
men engaged in the search, through most
OF Saturday. The discovery was made by
a dog Of the party. The man-who was
in feeble health-was helped from his hid
ing place and taken home. He had been
IN the log some SO hours.
Business is booming in Stuart's quarry,
and Robert shows himself man OF busi-
ness. He has rented the well known quar-
ry Of Jerome Alderman, at Windsor Mills,
and taken a job to put in the heavy stone
work for a new bridge, west OF the Mills.
The lease extends Ave years. All kinds Of
stone can now be readily furnished.
Thompson Higley, Jr., harvested As
acres Of wheat, from which he expects to
thrash 1000 bushels OF grain. He contin.
ues to sell the Champion grain drill, and
keeps phosphate to work with it.
1t seems rather lonely not to hear from
our old friend and TELEGRAPH correspon-
dent, r. d. Norris, of Hartsgrove. We
may, however. well excuse him in view of
his i'll health and bodily afiliction. He has
been man of active business habits; he
has seen sorrow and affliction, but he has
stood at his post and never faltered. He
has been man Of principle, and made his
mark in the world. His honor and gener-
osity none will question. He is sustained
by a strong faith in the Redeemer, and,
when the call comes, he will no doubt be
found ready to meet it. HIG.
