Reminded Of HIS Boyhood Days.
Every other Saturday


A professor of Cambridge, who is
considered the first mathematician in
England, albeit pious devine and a
man of staid character and devout
habits, happened to be taking his con-
stitutional on the banks of the river
at the time of recent boat race. The
river is narrow. A dexterous move
ment of the tiller when the boats are
side by side will often drive one of
the competitors too near the bank.
Well, the learned and pious church
man, having sauntered to the river
side just as the boats were passing,
watched them for a moment with a
calm face. Some old memories of by
gone contests rushed into his mind
the struggle fired his blood he was
seen TO clench his fists and to walk
with fifmer tread. He followed the
boat a few PAGES. As they came TO
turn in the river he actually ran, IN
full collegiate custom as he was. his
cap blew otf-he never noticed 1t. lie
began to wave his arms. A crowd
around him, unconscious of his prec-
ence. shouted: Go it, Trinity
DICKS, AdluS4 Lie uOd'o NCib
approaching a very narrow part of
the river, the Caius men half a length
ahead. The spectators were shooting
in a frenzy of excitement, when above
the tumult arose the sonorous and
stentorlan voice of the venerable
professor: Port, Caius, you Sound
rell Confound il, port your helm,
mani" and as the shrewd order was
instantly obeyed, in a still more On
erestic voice: "Optime, Johannes y
then, suddenly recollecting himself,
said: Goodness gracious, gentle
men, | have forgotten myself ! and
the old gentleman walked Oft at a
round pace, blushing like a girl,
amidst the vociferous applause OF the
students.

Shape OF the Horses, Back.

An English live stock paper, in an
article relating to the selection of a
horse for the work he is expected to
perform, after stating the results
many observations on horses, remarks
that it is the arch of bridge which,
from its structure, can bear weight
placed upon it, whereas, an inverted
arch would fall to pieces, or would
withstand a far less pressure. 1t has
been observed that low backed, or
rather hollow backed horses. working
in harness, kept their condition, while
those with high backs lost flesh. Per-
sons of not very inquiring or obser
want dispositions would probably at
tribute this to the fact that the former
were of more hardy constitution than
the latter, but this would be false
conclusion. 1t is ewing entirely to
the curvature of the back, for horse
which can draw weight is least able
to bear weight upon its back, while
the horse unable to bear the strain of
draft can beat the other any day in
carrying a weight. The line of the
verteb1& indicates the sort of work
for which the horse is fitted. If it IS
hight the weight must be on the top
to press it together; if low, the pres
sure must be from below tor the same
reason. A downward curvature is,
therefore, the best form of spine for a
Graft horse.

New York Herald.
The Baptist ministers attending the
weekly conference at Murray street
were entertained recently by Rev. j.
K. Raymond, with amusing remin-
iscences of the religious life of the
southern negro in the old times before
the war. OF the preachers he said
that. though their sermons were fail
ures, from literary and orato1cal
standpoint, they were marvellous in
their power of reaching the hearts of
the people. He gave, among other
illustrations, a simile used by a
preacher in introducing a brother
preacher from the north.
Sometimes" he said, "yo goes to
de swamp to shoot desc yer bars, en-
20 takes one ob de ole guns along wat
makes big hole IN de side OBJ de bar.
He jes stuff some grass in de place an
walks off latin at yer. Den one OBJ

Now" continued Mr. Raymond,
''the negro stands shoulder to sheul-
der with the white man in building
halls of learning and houses of wor-
ship. There are great possibilities be
fore him, and step by step he is taking
his place in the higher planes of life.
But there is yet in this country a great
work to be done in helping him, and
before looking toward tt Congo we
should do what we can at home"

Construetion OF Carp Ponds.

A carp breeder in Pennsylvania
SAYS a proper system requires three
ponds. They must all be shallow in
the main, but each must have deem
place next to the outlet. Each must
have a collector in the deepest point
made of wood or masonry. This is a
sort of trap in which to collect the
fish, especially intruders, suc2 as pre-
datory fish, cells, etc, which are sure
to get into all ponds. Connected with
the collector must be sluice which
will drain the pond dry at will This
should be done early in the spring
and late in the fall. All wood and
masonry should be avoided in the con
struction of entertainments except the
simple sluice referred to, and this
sluice should answer the double pur-
pose of holding the water to its
standard level and of drawing it all
off when desired. In regions where
the water freezes, alternating ground
should be prepared adjoining the
sluice, where the carp can burrow in
winter. This should be the deepest
place in the pond excepting the collec-
tor. The bottom of the pond should
0e muddy, so as to produce rank
growth of aquatic vegetation, prefer
able lilies, but any indigenous growth.
This makes the pond am aquatic pas
ture in which the carp will subsist
without artificial food, which should
not be given them till a short time be-
fore marketing or preparing for the
table, and then only in fattening
boxes or watts which can be kept clean
and which will keep the carp from
the earth. The regular discharge Of
water must be from the bottom in
stead of the surface. There must be
no other fish with the carp. Geese,
ducks and all domestic fowls aud ami
mails should be kept away from carp
ponds.
