necessary to make sowing every two
weeks, and the plants will be rendered
more productive if the beans are dropped
three or four inches apart. Care should
be taken not to hoe when the plants are
wet, as the earth or even the dust scat
tered on them will cause them to rust
and thus greatly iDjure the crop.
The farmer should know the contents
of every field on his farm. which he may
easily ascertain accurately enough for
all common purposes by the use of a
tape-line and the multiplication table.
Measuring poles, of different lengths,
from SIX to twelve feet, will be useful
for various smaller purposes, such as
measuring portions of fences, bitches,
gates, buildings, timber, and in garden
ing and planting trees A graduated
pole eleven feet long is o convenient
length for measuring small portions of
land, as three lengths are two rods. O
length and half one rod, etc. It would
be too short if only 81, or too cumber-
some it 163 feet long. Culi-
GATOR.
OUR soil and climate are favorable to
the production of parsnips and carrots,
and they are in many localities the most
profitable root crops that can be raised.
The former can remain in the ground all
winter without injury, as freezing does
not iniure them. The operations of
freezing and thawing simply converts
the starch the roots contain into sugar.
Parsnips that remain i'll the ground all
winter are in fine condition to feed to
stock in the spring, when the animals
are greatly in need OF some kind of green
food. Carrots are not much injured by
heat and dryness, as they are protected
by the soil into which they extend, while
their leaves keep the ground shaded.
Carrots furnish excellent food for horses,
pigs and poultry. They are also good
for mich COWS. They impart 1ich
color to milk, and their flavor is agree
able. Turnips, unless fed with care,
are likely to impart an undesirable flavor
to milk, which is conveyed to the butter
and cheese made it, but if they are fed
in connection with grain at consider
able time before the milk is drawn, the
milk is not injured.

Dancing In Madagascar.
from Temple Bar

Just after sunset and while [ was still
discussing my dinner, the tum-tums be-
gan to beat, and soon the clear space in
the middle of the town presented an an
mated appearance. A sort of illumina-
ton was attempted by means of cocoa
nuts filed with bullock's fat, but they
disagreeably. Mats had been placed
under the old tamarind tree for the king
and myself, and on repairing thither [
found his majesty already arrived. The
people soon formed up for a dance. 1t
was very curious sight, and I never be-
fore aw any native dance quite like it.
They all formed in circle, and sang
apparently verse of song.
Then they went IN turns into the
centey of the ring and danced
wildly round, fourishing their spears
and singing, and then they all joined in a
sort of chorus. / fancy the solo singing
was extempore. The women did not
take part in this dance, but all sat to
gether and beat time with their hands,
and then at the finish they came forward
with cslabashes full of rum and present
ed them to the men. They danced the
same dance three or four times, never
emitting the rum at the end. His
majesty kept pressing me also to drink,
and I lad to take far more of 1t than I
wanted. The women now came forward
and danced, the dance consisting of
swinging the body backward and for
ward, al the time singing plaintive
melody. I could not help thinking how
well the words from Les Cloches de
Cornsviale"- Just look at that" etc.
would have suited the action. They
looked very picturesque with their
bright eolored L021b0s and Withholding
heads. They have long,, woolly hair,
which they make stick out from the
head in little nobs. After the women
had been dancing thus for some time,
(the men sitting down and beating time)
man most grotesquely pain5ed Jumped
in between them and danced few times
up and down the middle; then the women
screamed and ran away, and the men,
jumping up and granddaughter spears
in the most threatening manner, rushed
forward as if to attack the newcomer.
He at once bolted down the street. I
afterward found out that he represented
a lolo,. $9host,) come to carry off one of
the women. After he had disappeared
there was general dance OF rejoicing,
IN which both men and women joined,
and after that more rum. lit was now
long past 10, so I asked the permission
Of the king to retire to my hut. He re-
Piled, rather huskily, that it was very
early, but gave me leave to GO He also
promised me some guides to take me out
In the morning.

ESTRAN GEM EMIT.
BY JAMES RUSSELL LOWELL.

The path from me to you that led,
Untrodden long, with grass is grown,
Mute carpet that his liPges spread
Before the Prince Oblivion
When he goes visiting the dead.
And who are they but who forget 4?
You, who my coming could surmise
Ere any hint of me as yet
Warned other ears and other eyes,
See the path blurred without regret.
But when 1 trace its windings sweet
With saddened steps, at every spot
That feels the memory in my feet,
Each grass-blade turns forget-me-not.
Where murmuring bees your name repeat.

MAD RIVER IN THE WHITE MOUNTAINS.

TRAVELLER.
Why dost thou wildly rush and roar,
Mad River, O Mad River?
Wilt thou not pause and cease to pour
Thy hurrying, headlong waters DER
This rocky shelf forever?
What.secret trouble stirs thy breast?
Why all this fret and furry?
Dost thou not know that what is best
In this too restless world is rest
From oyer-work and worry?
THE RIVER.
What would'st thou IN these mountains seek,
o stranger from the city?
1t is perhaps some foolish freak
OF thine, TO put the words [ speak
Into plaint1Ye dltty?

Yes: L would learn of thee thy song,
With ali It's flowing numbers,
And in voice as fresh ami strong
As thine is. sing it all day long,
And hear it i'll my slumbers.

brooklet nameless and unknown
Was L at first, resembling
little child, that all alone
Comes venturing down the stairs of stone,
Irresolute and trembling.

For the wide world painted;
Out of the forest dark and dread
Across the opeG fields led,
Like one pursued and haunted.
tossed my arms, sang aloud,
MY voice exulsant blending
With thunder from the passing cloud,
The wind, the forest bent and bowed,
The rush of rain descending,
heard the distant ocean call,
Imploring and entreadHg;
Drawn onward, DER this rocky wall
/ plunged, and the loud waterfall
Made answer to the greeting.
And now, beset with many ills,
toilsome life follow;
Compelled to carry from the hills
These logs TO the impatient mills
Below there in the hollow.
Yet something ever cheers and charms
The rudeness of my labors;
Daily / water with these arms
The cattle of hundred farms,
And have the birds for neighbors.
Men call me mad. and well they may,
When, full of rage and trouble,
I burst my banks of sand and clay,
And sweep their wooden bridge away,
Like wlthered reeds or stubble.
Now go and write thy little rhyme,
AS of thine own creating,
Thou eeest the day is past its prime;
can no longer waste my tine;
The mills are tired of waiting.

The Retirement of Naval Officers.

WASHINGTON, July 27.-Attorney
General Brewster has given an opin-
ion to the Secretary of War upon the
construction of the clause in the act
of June 80, 1882, limiting or restrict
ing the retirement of officers of the
navy. lie says: I am Of the opin-
ion that in determining whether the
limit Of 400 prescribed by the act Of
juno Is, 1878, has been reached or
not the number of officers retired I'm.
der the act Of June 80, 1882, must al
ways enter into the computation, and
that no retirement can validly be
made under the laws anterior to the
act of the Both of June, 1882, when
the aggregate of rctiremcnts under
that act and the laws preceding it
shall at any time amount to 400.
There is but one retired list for the
army known to the law according to
the act of June 50, 1882. When al,
officer is withdrawn from active ser.
vice under its provisions he shall be
placed on the retired list-meaninp
clearl.' the list already established by
law, and when an officer is thus pla,
ed there it would seem that he can
no more be disregarded in reckoning
the number there than an officer put
there ly virtue of any previous law.
He continues: Congress has evinced
no purpose, in the act of June Is,
1882, to make permanent increase
of the number retired. 1t is true that
the list is subject to temporary aug
mentation beyond said limits by re-
tirements under that act; but Lis ex
cess is exposed to constant elimination
and destruction by the occurrence Of
va. ancies."

Laborers Opposing Convict Labor.

LITTLE Rock, Ark, July 25.--A
few days since the penitentiary les
see, Ward, sent gang of convicts to
Benton, twenty-five miles south on
the Iron Mountain railroad, to dig
gravel on a railway contract. His son,
Will Ward. was in charge, and a
stockade and other buildings were
erected. Late Wednesday night a
large number of laborers went to the
quarters, burned the buildings and
all the lumber, and marched Ward
and the coavicts to tho depot, com
PEELED them to return to Little Rock,
and threatened to kill the m if they
came back. No attempt has been
made to resume work. Intense ex-
citement prevails at Benton, and it is
believed that serious trouble will fol-
low If the convicts are sent back.

awi ny further information and the
Government was anxious to consult
with England, and he therefore moved
that the debate on the motion for a
second vote of credit be postponed
until Saturday.
The Chamber assented.
The Committee of the Chamber
which rejected the proposal for a
second vote Of credit Of 100000
francs, yesterday, contains neither a
majority for intervention nor a ma
jority against, but it rejected the
credit because it was unable to agree
on either policy. 1t depends entirely
upon DeFreycinct whether the credit
is carried or not. If he is so Him
spired as not clearly to make it qucs-
ton of conference he will certainly
fail.
