SEvENTY-Two CHILDREN.-I referred
lately to case of triplets in Scotland. But
this is nothing in comparison with the pro-
lificness of a Russian, according to the fol-
lowing extract from the Scots Magazine.
March, 1855: 'There was lately presented
to the Empress of Russia a laboring man
who has had two wives, the FIRST of whom
brought him four times four children at q
birth, seven times three and ten times two.
The second wife has lain in seven times,
the first time she brought forth three chill
dren and the other six times two. The
whole number of children by the two wives
amounts to seventy-twO.o

TREATMENT OF A MARE IN FoAL.-It
is not well to give any pregnant animal any
medicine unless it is required. When it is
necessary to remove some ailment, of course
it is better to give it it than to leave the
animal suffering. But it is much safer to
prevent necessity of this kind by carefully
managing the diet of the mare for some
weeks previously; feeding bran mashes,
linseed-meal, or some roots, to regulate the
system and keep it cool and open. Costive-
ness is to be especially avoided in this con-
ditiOn.

Dnnf,t Give LIN Yet.

1t doesn't follow that a patient will die
because the doctors have ''given him up, =
or that he will recover because they prom
ise to spull him through" 1t is never too
late to- try the great virtues of Parkers 5
Ginger Tonic. Mr.. Michael Guilfoyle, OF
Binghampton, N. Y, was cured OF Kheu-
matlsm by it after ten years of unspeakable
suffering. Mr.. r. w. Mosher, druggist, OF
same city, certifes that he has sold over 2
thousand bottles Of Parker's Tonic through
its reputation for this and other cures.

For the SPECTATOR.
The Banner of Capt. Harper's Company in
the Mexican War.

EDITOR OF THE SPECTATOR:-It is mat
ter of much interest to learn the fate Of
| the splendid banner gotten up by the Coun-
| ty Court of Augusta after the return of the
| Company to the county. Gen. Baldwin, at
the time on the Court of Appeals bench in
| Richmond, was deputed by the Court to be
ftheir organ in its presentation. 1t was
done in front of the Powhatan House
(Ford's) the evening before the Company
left for Old Point. George Harlan is Of the
impression that it either was, or was in.
tended, to be turned over to the County
Court Clerks Office for preservation. II
any member of Capt. Harper's family, OF
any one else, can throw any light upon the
subject, will they please let the public know
through this medium any thing pertaining
to it?
THE AUGUSTA BANNER OF THE HARRISON
CAMPAIGN IN 1910.
The same enquiry as to what became of it.
John Wise, who fought at Maumee under
Harrison, was its bearer in the procession
of the grand Whig rally at Richmond on
the occasion of Mr.. Webster's big speech,
on the 9TH of October, from the front porch
of the Capitol. In the evening, when the
Augusta delegation, preceded by Gen.
Baldwin as their speaker, marched up Main
street to the residence of the late John M.
Patton (where the writer dined that day.
to invite Mr.. Webster to Staunton. John
Wise, in bearing the banner, was supported
on the one side in holding one of the cords
by the late Maj. Moses McCue, on the other
by Robert Moffett, as the writer thinks.
It was the last time. he, saw it unfurled.
One side bore the Coat-of-Arms of Virginia,
and the other, the memorable words Of
Gen. Washington at Valley Forge, "Leave
me but standard" &C., and in which he
used the words on the mountains of Au-
gusta," and not Vest Augusta, as the quo
tation has so repeatedly been made. The
execution in material, painting, &C., was
most admirably executed.
Any information as to what became of it,
if brought back here, on left in Richmond,
will be thankfully received by the
ENQUIRER.

THOUGHTS.

When earth has robed herself in green.
And tiny fow'rets one by one are seen,
And Summer with her deep-dyed bloom,
Scents earth and air with flowery perfume,
'Tis harsh to think in this aglow
Of Winter with her cold and ice and snow.
When Autumn. clad in russell brown;
Has stored her fruit and grain, earth's laure
crown;
When earth has changed her robe to white,
And flow'rets, one and all, are out of sight.
'Tis hard to think amid this snow
offspring and Summer beauties all aglow
So when our youthful hearts beat high, y
With cherishing dreams of hope and love a
nigh;
When joy and pleasure round us blend,
And prosperous winds kind Heaven doth send
'Tis hard to think that e'er dull care,
Or adverse, cruel winds we all must share.
Or when our hearts are torn with care,
And grief and loss have left there imprin
there;
When through the clouds we cannot see.
And say, Though shines the sun, tits not TO
meo'
'Tis hard to think that God knows best
That after all this pain there comes q rest.
Be patient, weary, fainting one,
And learn to say. 'Thy will, not mine, b.
DONE"
The hand that makes the ice and snow,
And Spring and Summer beauties all ag1ow,
Leads ever through the darkest way
To Heavens sweet rest and endless day.

BOILED RYE FOR MARE.-Boiled rye
is in no way Injurious to mare in foal, but
it is not advisable to overfeed mare in
this condition. Oats is the best food for a
mare, and atthis season, if the mare is in
good pasture, no grain will be needed. If
the mare is working, mess of cut grass or
clover once day would be beneficial.

SORROWS SIGNAL

Fast to the front door knob it hung,
A snow-white. silken bow,
And fitful, wintry breezes swung
Its streamers to and fro.
The letter-carrier on his round
The f1uttering sign deserted;
His heart recalled little mound;
He turned away and sighed.
The signal caught woman eye;
Into her face there crept
A look of grief; as she went by
She bowed her head and wept.
The gleeful children, on their way
To school, the ribbon saw;
At once they hushed their noisy play
And gazed around in awe.
'Step softly. please, and shout no more" T"
little maiden said; 4----s5s-a-s
"Step lightly on going past the door,
The little baby's dead"
The peddler, shouting oud his ware
In tones discordant shrill,
Observed the fluttering ribbon there,
And suddenly grew still.
A tender look passed o'er his face,
A tear shone in his eye,
He checked his horses noisy pace,
.And silently went by.
A man of books, sedate and wise,
Passed on to take the train;
The silken signal met his eyes,
He stopped in sudden pain.
The meaning of the sign he read.
That in the breeze did play;
"God keep my little one." he said,
And signing, went his way.
A wealthy banker passed the spot,
Its tale the ribbon told,
And for moment he forgot
To think of stocks and gold.
His heart recalled q baby face,
BY kisses oft caressed,
A tiny form in creamy lace,
Laid long ago to rest.
Thus men their brotherhood reveal,
The common heart within,
When they that touch Of nature feel,
THAT makes the whole world KIM

DISEASE IN SHEEP.-Sheep are subject
to the same disease as that described in an
article elsewhere on s'Pests of Lambs. u
1t is the parasitic worm in the throat, Of
which the symptoms are loss of appetite,
weakness, running at the nose, anda watery
swelling under the jaws. On examining
dead sheep, the air passages may be
found filled with froth, and many small
worms will be found. These are the
cause of the trouble. The remedy is to
give each sheep half a teacupful of raw
iinseed-oil, to which is added half a table
spoonful of turpentine. Give this each
morning for week one hour before feed
ing. There is no way of preventing it ex-
cept by using this medicine through the
whole flock, as every sheep has more OF
less of these parasites in the bowels or the
lungs, and the eggs of them get into ma
nure and into the grass or hay, and so are
continued from year to year.

To PREVENT WARBLHs.-A writer saws.
that his experience for fifty years has been
that if the backs of the cattle are OCCASION
ally washed with brine during the summer
months the cattle will not be stung by the
gadfy; also that two or three washings Of
brine on the back will destroy the grubs
that are in the skin.

To have fine lawn the coming season
provided there is geod stand of grass, ap-
ply half an inch deep of fine thoroughly de-
composed manure over the surface at any
time now, allowing it to wash into the soil
during the gentle rains; then, regularly, at
intervals of a week or two throughout the
season, according to the growth, cut the
grass with lawn mower, and a beautiful,
velvety sward will be the result. In the
absence of suitable stable manure, ashes OF
some other fertilizer may be used.

A countryman was sowing his ground
when two smart fellows came riding by,
one of whom called out with an insolent
air, "Well, my good man, tits your business
to SOW; but we reap the fruits of your la
bor.' The rustic replied, 'Tis very like
ly you may, for just now l am sowing
hemp"
This reminds us, says the Nelson (Va)
County Examiner, of an incident that oc-
Cured in Maine some years ago We were
riding with friend through Augusta one
summer day in q light wagon. Our friend
was driving and was using driving reins
made of ropes instead ofleather. A would
be wag tried to poke fun at the driver on
account of his novel reins. SWELL" said
our friend, 1.people are learning economy
They are finding that ropes are cheaper
than leather. In fact, ropes are coming in
to general use, ori would, if people should
get their deserts.'
MoULTING FOwLs.-When fowls are
moulting, the following tonic is recommend
ed by high poultry authorities: Sulphate Of
iron, one-half pound; .sulphuric acid, one
ounce; dissolve in two gallons of water
A teaspoonful of the mixture to every pint
of the drinking water is about the quantity
given. The preparation is an English one,
and is known as the Douglass mixture. u
