A Lesson for Employers.


A Judgment lately pfon0Hnced by a
court of Justice at Dresden may serve
as q warning to those benevolent per-
sons, In Germany ct all events, who
may be tempted to give their servants
on discharge q better character than
they had proved themselves entitled to.
A merchant at Dresden q short time ago
engaged a young man beloging to a
family of good position and highly re-
commended by his last employers as
cashier in a retail plaee OF business. In
this position it was his duty to receive
all money paid in during the day and
convey it in the evening to the head
boOk-keeper Of the establishment. Sew
eral circumstances led to suspicion that
the new cashier did not give up at the
end of the day all the money paid to
him during the hours of business. Con-
sequently arrangements were made for
checking the sums collected and paid
over by the young man, and in few
days it was ascertained that he had ap-
propriated at least S40O. The default
ing cashier was accordingly sUmmarily
dismissed, and his employer applied to
the merchant who had originally given
him a good character for repayment of
the sum stolen. This the merchant
refused, Eat on the matter being taken
before a court of justice, and on its be-
ing shown that the Young man had been
discharged by his first Employer because
he had stolen money from him, and that
the good character had been given him
from feeling of pity, the original en-
ployer was ordered to make good his

wearing out Land,


Continuous cropping will exhaust any
soil. Whatever. elements are removed
from the soil by cropping must be re-
placed in some way, if fertility is main
tanned. The ability of soil to produce
well depends upon the chemical constitu-
ents that are present in it, provided its
mechanical condition is such as to render
these matters available to plants. These
matters or constituents are the food up-
on which plants live, and a knowledge of
them, combined with the chemi-
cal composition of the ashes of different
plants, suggests rational system OF ag-
riculture. Theimportanee Of iudicioUs
succession Of crops in order to maintain
fertility, in the light of these facts, is at
once apparent Some crops remove a
larger proportion of particular elements
than other, while some derive nutriment
from near. the surface, and some send
their roots to a greater depth to gather
substance; hence the Importance Of fol

supplying in the way of manures the
substances necessary to surface growing

Many of our Georgia farmers do not
sttchs as much Importance as they
should to the necessity Of keeping up
their lands. by renriching them. Many
farms in our state are worn out, and
many are deficient in certain neediul
elements. Farmers should carefully

Fine, another richer manure, while the
. orchard and vineyard are benefited by
bones planted close to the roots of trees
and vines. Roots viii grow around and
feed upon them for many years, or until
they are consumed. They can be put in
whole or broken with an axe.
Farmers SHOULD collect the vegetable
matter from every nook and corner of
the farTGi, and incorporate it with the
manure heap, or with swamp mud, lime
and gypsum form a compost heap; col

ortwices in a year and dress the land
with it. H

garden: sHen manure, ashes, plaster and
salt mixed in equal quantities, except

Ashes are beneficial in nearly all soils.
Their action is two-fold; they supply to
plants inorganic constituents which they
require, and they act chemically as soly-
ents upon other salts in the soil, or they
neutralize acids, etc. They are more ben
efeial ON sandy and gravelly lands than
on. clay. For plants that contain alarge
percentage of potash and phosphoric
acid, as carrots, turnips, potatoes and
cabbages, ashes are an essential manure.

high ridge in post oak grove on the
edge of What is known as the Labadie
Prairie, and is 155 feet deep. It is an
ordinary-bored well, eleven inches in
diameter. The mouth is covered with q
east-iron top piece, having an opening
about eight inches in diameter, through
which fushes a continuous current of
colorless vapors, or gas, having pres
sure OF about three atmosphefes, and q
temperature of about 60o. By STOPPING
down and looking into the oven, the
gas can be seen rising like the
heat from q stove. The gas is highly

a MnnderruI Parroe.

a wonderful parrot was formerly
owned by physician of Montgomery,
Ala, which was the pride of the county.
The negroes used to say, Bress de
Lord dat Ear bird got white folks
sensetn A correspondent of the Gto6s-
Democrat, of st. Louis, relates the fol-
lowing of this parrot:
The doctor, like all physicians, was
frequently called out at night by some
ones "halleo" at the front gate.
Polly learned this, and one night
when the doctor answered a shrin
"halloo" by coming to the door and
asking what was wanted, Polly answered
from a bunch of rose bushes:
"sHe! hi ha I fool the doctor that
time; hill he! hap ler- W.
Polly received q sound thrashing for
this trick and was quite sullen for q
week or so, when one dark, rainy night,
the doctor woke up to hear some one at
the gate repeating his "hallOo," fire.
Going to the door he asked who was
there From the top of tall LON.
hardy poplar, the parrot screamed out
infieldish glee;uT@ 4#0t# g .s&
g" Ha! ha hal You can't catch Polly
this timel You can'ti you ean't II you
can'tl !"
All the DOCTORS persuasive arts were
called into requisitiOn to get the parrot
downfroHl her high perch, butshe could
not be deceived, coaxed or fattered into
doing as he commanded or entreated
her. H
She resolutelY kept her perch all night
in the rain, and waited until he started
~ 1of1xr n
before she ventured down.
The doctor had little boy, aged
about two years, for whom the parrot
formed a strong attachment, Warren
was the child's name, and by-and-by he
fell sick.
The parrot moped around and ap-
peared to be, quite melancholy. At
times, when the child was left alone for
q few moments, Polly would hopsup on
the edge of the cradle, and spreading
out heF wings, she would Vibrate them
like fans, and ask SIS she had heard the
nurse ask: t"
"Poor babyl Baby want water
Baby sick2 Baby hungry Poor baby |!
POlly's 5000 sorry"
Finally the child died, and the parrot
skunk away for the two days preceding
the funeral, and was neither seen nor
heard. On returning from the ceme-
terry, the family met her, waddling along
in the middle Of the road, repeating to
herself in the tenderest and most
mOurnful manner: "
Where's little Warren? Poor baby !
Baby sicki Baby want water7 Poo
o-O-r babyl Polly's 5000 sorry"
She was picked up and taken back
hons, but never spoke another word un.
til the day of her death, when she cried
ont, Hawks, hawks" and the next
minute was whisked away in the talons
of a monstrous chicken hawk, that had
been watching for an opportunity to
carry her off for several hours. -

KalIOch wakes an AnneaI.

DR.. Kalloch, Mayor-elect of San Fran
cisco, has called upon the Commissioners
of Police to revoke a special license
whereby Charles De Young, who re-
Gently attacked him, is permitted to
carry arms. He asserts that Mr.. De
Young has threatened to renew the
assault. He says: &c I am not afraid of
Charles De Young, nor of any other
man, and if this community is to be re-
mitted to mi-barbarisrn, and governed
by force, I can take my part, But I
am d peaceable American citizen, resid-
ing in large city which is supposed to
be protected by its police and by the
courts. / am about to occupy a high
municipal position, in which my life
should exemplify the highest concep-
tions Of civilized society, and l prefer,
therefore: not to be compelled to carry
arms for my defense" The ordinance
under which the license was granted
reads: The Police Commissioners may
grant written permission to any peace
able person, whose profession or Occupa-
ton may require him TO be out at late
hours of the night, to carry concealed
deadly weapons for his own protection"
DR.. K-flloch afirms that if Denis Kear-
ney is refused permission to carry
