The proposition to exc out the Repub
Ican strength in the Senate of the United
States by admitting Dakota into the
Union ought not to find favor in any
quarter. Although a usual party expe-
dent, it is a desperate one. No new
State should be admitted to the Union
which has not a voting strength sBfi-
cient to entitle it to a Representative in
the lower branch Of Congress Even
then the population of a single Congress
sional district is enabled to counterbal-
ance in the Senate of the United States
the weight and authority Of the most

Animal Parasites.

The internal parasites of animals are
wonderfully numerous and varied.
From the microscopically minute Or
ganism known as bacteria, of which
millions may be cngendered in one
ounce of liquid, to the huge tape
worms many feet in length, animals
suffer almost universally, more or less.
It may be safe to say that the lower ami
mails are rarely free from internal pests of
some kind, the eggs of which are picked
up with the food or swallowed with the
water. When the animal is in Wig
orous health and all its functions are in
good order and the wastes of the
system are discharged regularly, the
parasites find no means of subsistence,
and are either starved out or merely
maintain sort of paralyzed existence.
But when from any cause these func-
lions are deranged, the parasites find
their proper food in the abnormal mat
ter then abundant in the system and
thrive and increase enormously. 1t
would simplify this matter very much
if we could always realize that parasites
of all kinds-animal and vegetable
are introduced from outside sources
and never come from within. Then
we should also realize the fact that
they may be prevented by avoiding the
sources, from which they are intro
duced, and by maintaining the health
Of our stock. --RuraI New Yorker.

lions those prognostics of an earth
quake which are derived from animals.
They were observed in every place
where the shocks were such as to
be generally perceptible. Some min
utes before they were felt, the oxen
and cows began to below, the sheep
and goats bleated, and, rushing in con-
fusion one on the other, tried to break
the wicker work of the folds; the dogs
howled terribly. the geese and fowls
were alarmed. and made much noise;
the horses which were fastened in their
stalls were greatly agitated, leaped up,
and tried to break the halters with
which they were attached to the
hangers; those which were proceeding
on the roads suddenly stopped, and
snorted in q very strange way. The
cats were frightened, and tried to con-
ceal themselves, or their hair bristled
up wildly. Rabbits and moles were
seen to leave their holes; birds rose, as
If scared, from the places on which
they had alighted; and fish left the
bottom of the sea and approached the
shores, where, at some places, great
numbers of them were taken. Even
ants and reptiles abandoned, in clear
daylight, their subterranean holes in
great disorder, many hours before the
shocks were felt. Some dogs, a few
minutes before the first shock took
place, awoke their sleeping masters by
barking and pulling them, as if they
wished to warn them of the impending
danger, and several persons were thus
enabled to save themselves.

One of the greatest drawbacks to the
return of the Sioux has been the peri
odical visits of American scouts to the
hostile camp. These scouts are regu-
larly enlisted in the army, and have
been long known as frontier men, and
generally speak the Sioux language.
As a class the Indians dread them, and
with good reason. They have no conf
dence in them, and there is an impress
sion among the camp that these scouts
are endeavoring to get the old warrior
in for the purpose of getting reward
that Is reported to have been offered
for Sitting Bull; and to make matters
worse, an illustrated paper was shown
to Sitting Bull where he was exhibited
having q pair of horns on his head and
a ring in his nose. tits almost impos-
sible to make him believe that he would
be well treated on surrendering. 10.

A Story Of Bismarck's Youth.

Apropos of Prince Bismarck's BIRTH
day anniversary, pleasant reminis-
cence of his youthful days may not be
out of place. Forty-six years ago a
young Swedish nobleman was studying
at the Berlin University. One day no
received a letter from an uncle in
Sweden, whom he happened never to
have met in person, informing him that
his first cousin, q daughter of the rela-
tive in question, was about to pass
through Berlin on her way to the waters
at Ems, and requesting that he would
take charge o. her during her brief So
journ in the Prussian Capital, show her
all its most interesting sights, and final
ly see her safely started on her further
journey. The young lady arrived at
Berlin in due course, and was waited
upon at her hotel by stalwart young
student who announced himself ss her
cousin, and escorted her, during the
three following days, to museums, pict-
ure galleries and SO forth, with indie
fatigab)e courtesy. On the fourth day
he attended her to the Post-Amt,
whence she was to depart by diligence
to Ems, and, as she was warmly thank
ing him for all the attentions he had
shown her, requested her permission,
before taking his leave, to make con-
fession of his sins.
II must no longer, my dear cousin, y
he continued, conceal from you that,
as matter of fact, l am not your
cousin at all. A friend of mine, how
ever, has that honor. He is undergo
ing his examinations at college, and
confided to me the duty of carrying out
your papa's wishes. My name is Won
Bismarck" This very lady visited
Berlin last year, and took occasion to
remind the Chancellor of the above in
cident, reiterating the expression of
her gratitude for his chivalrous polite
ness of nearly half century ago. In
terrupting her, with genial smile,
Prince Bismarck observed: pardon
me, madam, it is I who am under
obligation to you in that matter.
Thanks to you was at that time
enabled to visit the museum. have
never since had time to do so again!'-

How Much Water.

A correspondent asks how much
water should a horse have to drink.
That depends very much OH variety
of circumstances, and is as difficult to
determine as would be the question,
show much should q horse have to
eat?" Some horses will eat or drink
more or less than others. In fact, what
would prove on an average a full and
sufficient ration for one horse, would
not be more than half enough for an
other horse of same size and to enable
him TO perform the same amount of la
Dor. The quantity Of drinking water
Necessary for horse must be regulated
according to circumstances, such as
whether the horse is kept in idleness or
at work, the season, whether winter or
summer, etc. There are some rules to
be remembered in this connection.
Drinking water ought never to be given
Immediately before or after meal.
Horses should never be galloped after
drinking; it has been the death of
thousands, and is apt to occasion gripes,
Inflammation and broken wind. If a
horse be allowed to drink at river or a
pond during a journey, he should never
be permitted to take moro than half his
fill, and after walking him a short dis
lance, he may be urged TO a gentle trot.
The fact may not be generally known
that horse allowed to drink at pleas
ure, will consume less water in the
course of twenty-foW' hours, than he
would do if watered by the pail, and al
lowed to take his fill at each offering.
It is, indeed, proved by experiment,
that horse will drink less in this way
by gallon day, upon an average. In
order to take of the hardness, chill OF
any other noxious properties from the
water, II should be put into trough ia
the yard, and exposed during the day to
the full action of the sun or the air.
