A Virginia Monstr0sity.

The county of Chesterfield, famous
for its great men, its mineral resources,
and its persimmon crops, has just given
life to a pair of twin children, who, if
they live, will rival the famous Siamese
twins. The bodies are united just above
the hips. and the union extends down
the right leg of the one and the left leg
of the other, through the feet to the
toes. The double foot, however, has its
ten well developed toes. The children
are boys, aad were born ten days ago.
They are getting along well, and to all
human appearances will live and grow.
Their aggregate weight is ten pounds.
The heads, breasts, forearms and two
legs are perfectly formed. The parents
of the twins are respectable mulatto
people, who live a few miles from this
city, and to whom, during their we'd
lock, ten children had previously been
/ born. The birth of these twins SO

Anecdote OF Webster.

The amusing controversy and cor
respondence growing out of Secretary
Marcy's court-dress circular when
James Buchanan was Minister t. the
Court of st. James, described in an ar
ticle on Buchanan in this Magazine, re-
minds a correspondent of an occurrence
that took place at Marshfield in Mr..
Webster's time.
MI. Webster and Judge Duane Doty,
then of Green Bay, Wisconsin, we're
warm friends, and the Judge at one
time was a visitor at Marshtield. MI.
Webster was very fond of tishing-the
only outdoor sport in which he in
dulged. While the Judge was his
guest it CHANGED that a fine day for this
sport presented itself, of which Mr.. w.
was anxious to avail himself. He &C
cordingly invited the Judge to accom-
pany him in this piscatory sport. The
Judge didn't want to go, and tried his
best to get off, saying he would much
prefer, with his consent, to pass that
rainy day in Mr.. W.'slibrary among his
books and papers. Mr.. w. wouldn't
listen to him, said he could pass any
and as many days in the library as he
chose, but such a day as that for fishing
might not occur again while they were
at Marshfield. The Judge, as a last re-
sort said that he really could not go, as
it would spoil his clothes, that the
hands me black suit he had on was his
best and all he had, and that to go fish
ing in it would spoil it. To meet this
objection Mr.. w. directed his servant
George t., go upstairs and bring down
the dress in which he was presented at
11,,& =, E-o1,,l uyhioh INonrro IA
As soon as he appeared with it Mr.. w.
said: There, Doty, is a dress for you;
put it on, and come as soon as you
can, for we are losing valuable time"
The Judge replied: Surely, Mr..
Webster, YOU are not in earnest in what
you say-that you want me to go fishing
in that elegant suit, and spoil it?'
"Yes, L am" he replied; THAT is
what it has been brought down for"
The Judge still fingered, when Mr.
W.. to settle the matter. said to him:
"Have no anxiety about in;uring the
dress. for to fish or hunt in it is the only
way it can now be made useful. Could
l wear it in Washington, Philadelphia,
New York, Boston or even here? If /
did wouldn't everybody laugh at me?"
The Judge was compelled to answe'
a~firmatively 20 the question.
well them" he said. pray what is
it good for hut to go fishing in ?"
This settled the matter. The Judge
put OF the dress, and went fishing in
Mr. WIS court suit. and saved his
own. Thus, you see, Mr. Webster,
with his w~ell-known willingness to
oblige, had no objection to appear be-
fore England's Queen in the dress pre-
scribed; and what a good use he made
of it after his return home!-Harper's
Magazine.

Chronic Diarrhea in Cattle.

There are various cause productive
of chronic diarrhea, as there are also
of acute, and although the first some
times has the latter for it's cause, the
effects are different in each disease, as
are the auses producing them. For
instance, that which would be produc-
tive of acute diarrhea in a sound ami
NAL, would not materially affect n
suffering from chronic diarrh9a.
That they are two distinct diseases
maybe adduced from the fact, that an
animal suffering from an attack of the
acute disease is quickly and successfully
treated by remedies which would have
mo effect upon one suffering from the
disease in a chronic form
There are different kinds of this dis
ease; of which one is intermittent, and
is believed by many country people to
be influenced by the moon. This has
its cause in a weakened stake of the
liver, and its consequent susceptibility
of becoming easily and unduly excited
by different agents, which, being re-
moved, the animal, to use the words of
the owner, ''soon gets well again"
Another kind is that to which year.
ilings are subject, when calves have not
had proper food, or have been fed with
a view of saving the cows milk. This
kind of chronic diarrhea, if improperly
treated, renders the career of the ami
Imal short; but if submitted at once to
roper treatment, and there be not con-
siderable structural arrangement of the
liver, there is still q favorable prospect
of recovery.
To the other kind, of all the most
subject to it are COWS which are ..good
milkers;'' but why they are SO we will
not attempt to explain, unless it be that
there is a greater demand upon the
system, and that they are more mad
vertently exposed to the inclemencies
of the weather, by being turned out of
a protected or warm barn, after being
MIXED, into a cold yard orunprotected
field, where they become exposed to a
cold, wet, or frosty atmosphere, and
are allowed to remain until again
wanted for the purpose of being MIXED.
One principle cause of chronic
diarrhea is the acute form neglected
or improperly treated, and this
| frequently occurs when the latter is the
case, q. the tircs when the COW doctor

| recipes 10 SGOp Gne SCouTlHSi dG d

"A certain country squire was the
most uncalculating of mortals in money
matters. He began to build a house,
but his original design grew, with wing
on wing, until it flew away with all his

in debt to architects, carpenters, masons,
and for everything about his new build

TO A CHILD.

Kathleen of the glad blue eyes,
Elf-locks dark and curling
Kathleen of the laughing voice,
Like a wild stream whirling:
When I axe into those eyes,
Deep / read the story
OF a long-lost Paradise
And the young worlds glory.
Many q tale of ~fairyland
Have we dreamed together,
By the hearth in shadow-time,
Out on w~ind-swept heather.
Tired, i told of prince and fay,
Court and castle hoary;
Give me, sweet, my turn to-day
1, too, crave a story.
Blue eyes telling tales to mine
Darkly raise their fringes:
Earth had doors to Heaven once,
Wide on golden hinges.
From beyond, the timeless light
Banished time and sorrow;
Child-world had no yesterday,
v was tomorrow.
Nought was there of languid bloom,
Frail and fevered splendor,
Kisses like the daisies thronged,
Love made greensward tender,
Truth was sunny as the sky,
branching care spread o'er us,
All that warbled ecstasy
Made b gardens chorus.
o thou Eden of the past
If / could but find thee,
All I have, for thee, I'd cast,
Worthless, vain, behind me-
When the Heaven-gates stood wide,
And all h air was ringing
With mingled voices of our home
And sound of angels singing!
Am I sad? How startled shine
Those blue eyes in wonder
Child. whose heart beats close to mine,
Far are we asunder.
Yet, IL / would follow thee,
Oft ] marvel whether
Thou couldst lead me in, 10 see

The first lady ever placed in charge

The first lady ever placed in charge
of a telegraph Office was Miss Emma
A. Hunter, now Mrs. Smith, of West
chester. 1t was in 1851, when the first
line was built from Philadelphia to that
point. Her salary vas fixed at fifty
dollars a year, but was afterward raised
to $3.50. At the end of the first year
she was presented with a purse of $3.50
by the managers for her efficiency.
The presence of a lady on the line had
an excellent effect, as it put a stop to

each other. The next appointment of
