IIIusiye Visions.

On the occasion of the fire which de-
stroyed part OF the Crystal Palace in the
winter of 1867, part of the menagerie
had been sacrificed to the flames. The
chimpanzee, however, was believed to
have escaped from his cage, and was
presently seen on the roof endeavoripe
to save himself by clutching in wild
despair one of the iron beams which
the fire had spared. The struggles of
the animal were watched with an in
tense curiosity mingled with horror and
sympathy for the supposed fate which
awaited the unfortunate monkey. What
was the surprise of The spectators of an
imminent tragedy to find that the object
which in the guise of terrified ape, had
excited their fears, resolved itself into
a piece of canvas blind, so tattered,
that to the eye of the imagination and
when moved by the wind, it presented
the exact counterpart of struggling
animal! Such an example is of espec-
ial interest, because it proves to us that
not one person alone, but large number
of spectators may be deceived by an OBJ
iect imperfectly seen-and aided in the
illusion by vivid imagination-into
fancying all the details of spectacle of
which the chief actor is entirely myth.
A singular case has been given on strict
medical authority of lady, who, walk
ing from Penrhyn to Falm outh h-her
mind being occupied with the subject OF
drinking fountains-was certain she saw
in the road newly-erected fountain,
bearing the inscription: If any man
thirst. let him come unto me and
drink" AS matter of course, she
mentioned her interest at seeing such an
erection to the daughters of the gentle
man who was supposed to have placed
the fountain in its position. They as
sured her that no such fountain was in
existence; but, convinced of the reality
of her senses, on the ground that "seo-
ing is believing" she repaired to the
spot where she had seen the fountain,
only to find, however, few scattered
stones in place of the expected erection,

Brides Carried off by Pirates.

One OF the most interesting features
of Venetian life were the festivals
which occurred every year, and served
f. keep in remembrance certain events
in the history of the citv. Among
these was one kept annually for cen
turies called "La Festa della Marie, "
and this is the incident it commemo-
rates: In very old times, it was the
custom in Venice to have all the mar
riages among the mobiles and chief citi-
zens celebrated on the same day, and in
the same church in the eastern part of
the city, on little island called Olivolo,
where the bishop lived. On the day of
the tete, elegant gondolas were seen on
the waters carrying people dressed in
holiday attire to the appointed place,
and the young couples landed to the
sound of sweet and joyous music. The
jewels and other presents given to the
brides were carried in the procession, and
long train of friends, relatives and other
attendants came after.
In AID. 933, an event happened at
this ceremony which came very near
ending tragically! for the happy lovers.
The pirates of Istria, neighboring
country, were in the habit of securing
the Adriatic, and were the terror Of all
the cities on the coast. ALWAYS alert
for plunder, they decided that the time
for the Venetian wedding feast would
be favorable one to enrich themselves
very easily. Near to Olivolo was a
small island, at that time uninhabited,
and here, the day before the tete,
the willy Istriotes concealed themselves
and their light vessels.
The next day, the gay companies
passed slowly along to the church, un-
conscious of danger. The services be-
gan and the espoused couples stood be-
fore the altar. Then suddenly the
Istriote pirates, swift as arrows, rowed
their boats into the harbOr where the
gay procession had just disembarked. In
the midst of the solemn service, the
dooDs of the church were thrown open
and the dai k-bearded pirates rushed in.
With their drawn swords in their hands,
they made their way to the altar, and,
snatching up the terrified brides, they
rushed to their boats, not forgetting to
secure the caskets with the bridal gifts.
Before the Mortified bridegrooms and
guests could realize what had happened,
the robbers were carrying their prize,
with swift and steady strokes
toward the shores of Istria. The
Doge was assisting at the cere-
mony; but, rushing from the church,
he called on all to follow, till the mum
ber of citizens soon swelled TO hun
dreds, as they ran to the wharf, shout
ing tor vengeance.
There were several ships in the harbor,
and they hastily embarked. Every sail
was unfurled, ,and they started in pursuit
of the pirates and their precious booty.
The wind being favorable they over
took them il the lagoons, or low water
to the robbers. The girls were restored
unhurt to their lovers, and all the
jewels were recovered. 1t is said that
every pirate was fettered and thrown
headlong into the sea, not one escaping Q
to tell the story to his countrymen.-

Sheridan's War Horse.

The New York S!Gr, in an article de-
scrlblng the curiosities in the army
museum on Governors Island, says:
Leaving the museum and walking a
short distance to the south end OF the
| office of the ordnance department, the
visitor is shown General Sheridan's
famous war horse, Winchester. Sheri-
dan himself subscribes to the follow
ing:
:" Winchester was of Black Hawk
blood, and was foaled at OF near Grand
Rapids, Mich, late in the fall of 1859,
according to the best Of my information.
He was brought into the service by an
officer of the Second Michigan cavalry,
to which regiment l was appointed
colonel on the twenty-tifth day OF May,
1863. Shortly afterward, and while
the regiment was stationed in the liutle
town of Rienzi, in the State of Missis.
Slppl, he was presented to me by Cap
tain Campbell in the name of the officers
OF the regiment, and from that date to
the close of the war he was ridden by
me in nearly every engagement in which
L took part. At the time he was given
TO me he was rising three years old, so
that he must have been in his twentieth
year when he died, on October 3, 1873.
he was an animal of great intelligence
and OF immense strength and endurance.
He always held his b ad high, and by
the quickness of his movements gave
many persons the idea that he was ex-
ceedingly impetuous. This was not so.
for could at any time control him by
firm hand and few words, and he
was as cool and quiet under fire as nv
old soldiers. doubt if his superior as
a horse for field service was ever ridden
by any one."
The horse is fifteen and half hands
high. The coat is quite dark, but now
somewhat faded, with white fetlocks.
He was wounded twice, once on the left
side of the neck by bullet, and again
by fragment of shell near the left
flank, which he received at Mission
Ridge. The bullet wound was received
at Opequan Greek. General Sheridan
was at lhe island recently, and took a
look at his old charger. One could see
that there was much affection there. He
patted the animal on the neck as he
frequently did when the horse was alive,
and looking up at his blank and express
sionless eyes, said: Poor old fellow, /
could always depend upon you in a
pinch"

An Experiment Interesting to Farmers.

There is great interest among the
farmers over the trial on the farm OF
Engineer Riggs, of the Suffield branch
road, of q new procC IS !" for The preserva.
tion of forage crops in their green state, :"
which was experimental with for
twenty years by NJ. Goffart, of SaIomn,
France, who half dozen years ago per-
fected it. This is the only trial of the
process in Connecticut, and, with q
single exception, the only one in New
England. A one-horse power engine is
used to run the cutter, which somewhat
resembles hay cutter. Into this are
run three or four and even half a
dozen cornstalks at a time, which are
cut into very small pieces, Afterward
they fall into a slide which takes them
to vault fourteen by twenty-six feet
and ten deep, which has thick concrete
walls and is capable of holding eighty
five tons of this feed. The engine with
sixty pounds of steam can cut UP four
tons an hour, or hall ill the vault in a
packed down thirty tons of stone are
placed on top. 1t is claimed that the
"iodder " will keep green and etain it's
sweetness so long Gs it is kept covered,
thus making it one of the best as well
as the cheapest kinds of feeds obtain
able Tor cattle the year round. 1t is not
intended, however. that this feed shall
be sold as other kinds, and indeed it
could not be, as after twenty-four
hours exposure fermentation would set
in, which OF course would ruin it. 1t
can of course be taken out only little
at a time as it is needed for use. The
process is called the "ensilage" system.
