In the afternoon John called at Miss

Curing Sick Chickens.

A writer in the Practical Edrner,
in the course of a lengthy article,
says: After We had lost nearly every
chicken on the farm, and tried all
the remedies we could hear of, some
one sent word from some idistance,
to try cattle powders. OF course it
was done, and the result, not another
chicken sickened.
For a while | put as much as three
tablespoonfulls in a quart of meal,
mixed with hot water, and gave to a
dozen fowls every day then not SO
much. and only once or twice a
week; then once a week or two
weeks, and | never saw a dropsy or
sick chicken while did so. But
after a time | neglected it, and the
result was, in time the chickens
commenced dropping off again, but
stopped as soon as | reeommenc-
ed giving the powders. This was
repeated a number of times, but in
the last three years | have not seen
a symptom of the kind. j stillkeep
a paper of powder on hand, and once
in while, when think of it, | give
them dose.

Changes in the City of fJerusalem.

A wonderful change has taken
place in Jerusalem of late years,
and it is probably now a more COM
Portable residence then ever before
in its history. AIr. Schrick, who
holds the appointment of Surveyor
of Buildings in the holy city, has
lately issued a very instructive re-
port. He tells us that ruined houses
have been restored or rebuilt by in
dividuals or companies, and build
ings on the Peabody plan have been
erected by associations. The streets
are now lighted, kept, for an East
ern city, most exceptionally clean,
and the great aqueduct from the
Pools of Solomon has been restored,
and water brought thence to the
city. Tanneries and slaughter
houses have been removed outside
the town. The Sanitary Depart
ment l. under the control of Ger
man physician. Bethlehem and
.N0zareth are eagerly emulating the
pr gress Of the capital. In the lat

quite frequent. 1t is asserted that

part of thousands in Prussia to make
that country as hot as possible for
Jews, and il is not unlikely that
this may in a measure increase the
already considerable number now

cially as the German Jews already
are in power in Jerusalem. The
Improvements are, further, likely to
lead to many Europeans wintering

Those Dreadful M0ies.

of these rodents, which has caused

pestiferous diggers from May till No

along the surface in midwinter Is an
ANNOYANCE only the best OF natures
can cheerfully endure.
MANY agricultural writers contend
that moles are beneficial to the iarna

usefulness is subject we are not
disposed to discuss at this time;

what better methods there are Tor

Charity of speech is rs a divine q
thing as charity of action. The
tongue that speaketh ne evil is as
lovely as the hand which giyeth
aims. To Judge no one harshly, to
believe things are what they seem
to be until they are proved other
wise, to temper judgment with mcr-
cy, surely this is quite as good rs TO
build churches. establish asylums
and to found colleges. Unkind
words do as much harm as unkind
deeds many a reputation has been
stabbed to death by a few little
words. They have separated fam
lies, parted husbands and wives,
and broken the ties between the
dearest friends.
There is charity which consists
in Withholding words, in keeping
back harsh judgment, in abstaining
from speech, il to speak Is to con-
denim. Such charity hears the tale
of slander, but repeats it not; it Will
not be the one to help the ball. IL
listens in silence, but forbears COM
ment, and it locks the unpleasant
srcret up in the very depths of its
heart. While the busy, eensoriOus
world is wagging It's tongue, charity
sits dumb amid the clatter, refrain
ing from passing judgment on that
of which it has no proof, and which,
even if it had, would prefer throw
ing the mantle Of silence over the
matter. Could II be
possible for SANDER to make the
headway it does, if rectience, instead
of PRONUNCIATION, was the universal
rule? Could report be furnished
with the hundred wings it has if
there was nogossipping? It's speech
that keeps it alive and lends it Wig
or.
1t is to the heart that is kind and
gentle that charity flies and broods
qnietly over it with peacefulness of
the dove. There it makes its home,
and by the word withheld and KIND
ly words outspoken, we have the
sign that the dove Of peace is nesting
in the heart
The heart which is filled with Bit
terness will give vent to it in words.
1t sees nothing bright nor beautiful,
because il looks through q eloudcd
vision. Words are q pretty good
test of temper and habit OF thought
As Ito the pure all things are pure,
so TO the malicious and ill-tempered
all things are black, unlovely and Of
Words are the signs of
thoughts. and if the thoughts, be
sweet and good, the words will be-
kind and gentle, free from malice
and all uncharitableness. There
fore, by our words do we proclaim
what we are; the good fairy, drop
ping diamonds from her mouth, or
or the evil fairy dropping toads.

Improved Methods

Farming of all occupation is sus-
ceptible of the greatest advance
through a thorough study and knowl-
edge of natures forces and workings.
An hours thoughtand planning may
save a days hard work. A single
principle well understood, may de-
termine course that will double
the crop or divide the expenses OF
cultivation. As brain is superior to
muscle, so is an improved method
in advance of some clumsy and ex-
pensive way of accomplishing the
same result. Let every farmer re-
solve from this day to give to his oc-
cupation more thought and study,
more experiment and investigation.
Let him determine to understand
nature better, and not rest content
with misdirected force, or with such
labors as are not guided by the best
lights of modern science and investi-
cation.

He didn't look a bit like a patriot

THE SHAKE OF a HAND.


There's a feeling that thrills you with joy or
with pain,
That is felt in the shake of the hand,
And records if aught bu, a thought you may
gain
When you faced to adversity stand
How many whose hand, though seemingly
kind,
Like an icicle chills TO the bone;
Not shade of warm feeling within can you
find,
Though appearance will greatly disown!
Then give me the hand of 4 man with a
heart,
That scorns 10 be seen in disguise;
When you shake it you feel il Is honesty's
And the rest can be read in his eyes.
There's others from whom not sigh will
awake,
Indifferent and chill they remain,
As il all emotion was bound to stake,
With its limit the length of i chain.
And shouldyou, through courtesy be thrown
in their way,
Where civility makes demand,
You just feel the tips Of their fingers when
they,
As ifstung, draw quickly the hand
While Others you meet more inviting will
stand,
And extend you their palm with smile
And greet you right hearty, at least with the
hand,
Though their eyes are away all the while
While some with a pleasure that's stamped
on their face
VIII greet you with truth in their eyes,
From the grasp of their hand it Is easy to
trace
That there is not a shade of disguise.

GENERAL Superintendent Pal

GENERAL Superintendent Pan
delly and Civil Engineers Ballantine
and Rogers, of Morgan's Railroad,
made short business visit to Alex
andria on last Friday. They were
under orders from the Board Of Dr.
rectors of the road, and we are as
sured meant business. It is decided
now that the Morgan Railroad will
be extended to Alexandria and that
as soon as practicable; before the LIST
of September it will be at Opelousas,
and about 63 miles more will connect
US by rail with New Orleans. The
owners and managers ask that the
right of way be given them, without
paying for it, except that they are
willing to pay for all real damage
done in going through plantations
etc. From Washington, La, to Che.
NEVILLE, they wish to build the Road
along the Bayous' banks, and keer
close to Sugar Houses, Cotton Gins
and all points where they can pro
cure freights. They ask for nc
bounties, no subsidies, no grants
and with the judicious use of none,
will build the Road at once. There
fore it is hoped aud expected tina
the right of way will be grantee
them, and that the good will Of al
will be extended to their Company
