Central America.

Yesterday we passed through what
was to all strange phenomenon in the
Caribbean Sea. The water all about US
for long time was red, then it branched
out in streaks into sea-green. For a
short distance it was green, then deep
blue. The Captain said in the nine
years that he had been sailing on these
waters he had never seen the water red
before, and he was visibly aoitated
about it. He took the latitude and
longitude to report on his return. May
81 we came in sight of Little Corn
Island. 1t presented quite a picturesque
appearance with the cocoanut and
banana trees growing close to the
waters edge, here and there among the
foliage a little hut or tent peeping
through. That night we reached Blew
fields, a small settlement composed
chiefly of natives, there be NO only five
or six white families in the place. 1t.
has a fine harbor, but is up the river
five miles, and we were obliged to an,
Choir near the mouth and go ashore in a:
sail-boat. The people live in shanties
with matched roofs of cocoa palm, said
shanties consisting of one or at most
two rooms, bare floors, or the bare
grounds, and hammOcks for beds. Many
others mulatto, some very gOod-looking
indeed. They are n very religious peo-
Pile The Moravians have a mission
there and quite a good-sized church.
The women and children on Sunday
don their Sunday o-to-meeting clothes,
most of them whit and look very neat.
We called on white lady, Mrs. Smith
(the Smiths have spread as far south as
Central America). She lives in n neat
place, close to the waters edge, with q
broad piazza across the front and blinds
with very Ia ge Stats on both sides of
the corner room instead of windows
The breeze sweeps through always de-
lightful and cool. She sent out and had
two boys climb tall cOcoanut tree and
get us some of the fruit. They knocked
off half-a-dozen and gave me some of
the fresh cocoanut milk, which is con-
sidered very nourishing drink. An
other nice drink here is made from the
sour sap-a green fruit the size of an
orange The inside is boiled, then
strained, sweetened and cooled, and
makes a drink similar to lemonade
We do not see any lemons in this cOun-
try. The lines are used instead. - Cor.

The Origin OF Mosquitoes.

The Ind ans have very satisfactory
account OF the origin of the Montezuma
mos uitoes. The legend runs thus:
There were in times of old, many moons
ago. two huge feathered monsters per-
mftted by the Manitou to descend from
the sky and alight on the banks of the
Seneca hiver. heir form was exactly
that of mosquito They were so large
that they flew toward the earth. Stand
ing on either bank they guarded the
river, and stretching their long necks
into the canoes of the Indians a they
atteml ted to paddle along the stream,
billed them up as the stork king in
tue fable gobbled up the frogs. The de-
struction of life was so or. at that not
an Indian could pass without being de
vo-red in the attempt. 1t was long be
fore the monsters could be terminated,
and then only by the combined orts
of all the warriors of the ayuga and
Onondaga nations. ] he battle was
terrible, but the warriors finally tri-
umphed, and the mammoth mosquitoes
were slain and left unburied For this
neglect the Indians had to pay dearly.
The carcasses decompOsed, and the par
ticles, viviied by the sun, Few OFT in
clouds of mosquitoes, which have filed
the country ever since.-Hdas atm

TIE RALD or DEATH

Death rode through the streets OF a town one
Astride OF mis- old horse gaunt and gray;
And the frightened crowd, with headlong
Teedles3 OF age. or sax. or creed.
JOStied eac1 other left aud right,
In their haste to hide from the mons tors sight.
Men who had often wished themselves dead,
Turned with the rest and tremblingly fed;
The young and the strong. the feeble and old
Tho haugh ty and humble. the gloomy and gay,
Alike all hurricdly fastened away
Into his mansion the rich man hied,
BARRING his gates on the crowd outside;
Suid % himself 1--WE are free from harm!'
Then cautiously pcered from a lUop-hole out,
To see what mischief old Death was about
Outside tle panic was wild and high.
Mono Of IN crowd were ready 70 die;
But they knew that IL death on their steps
should gain,
Ploadings and prayers would be all in vain.
One of their number they knew must fall
And who could be spared the best of alp
"Give him old Trueman"' somo one cried
He WITH his limbs a twisted aside;
U Rly, and old. and crippled is he
Better take him than you or me-
And so. with tear in each sightless eye,
Poor old Trucman was left 70 die.
But Death passed on by the friendless old
ON past Ito feeble who prayed as they ran
And into the rich mans mansion gay,
ieediess OF bolts, be made his way.
Not that he cared for the R,ittering gold,
But he wanted n lamb from the sheltered fold.
The rich mans heart stood still with dread
As ne heard the invader terrible tread.
ne folded an amulet rich and rare
hourd the dainty form OF each Idol fair,
And eric with pitiful, pleading breath:
Leave them alone! - they are mine, o
Dcatni"
But Death, with purpose cruelty planned,
ON a fair young form laid his icy hand:
Batued the white brow with his own cold dew,
Pressed the lids DER the eyes OF blue,
And bore away from the stately hall
The fairest idol among them all
q Death! thy victims no man NAV choose
And none can tell whom thou wilt refuse
Youth Is not safe from thy terrible power
Gold can not purchase rcprieve an hour;
The lofty and lowly, tho sad and the gay,
AhkC must yield TO thy tCrr BILE sway.

Kindness as an Investment.

We have had two men working for
US, with teams, on the same farm at the
same time. One would take his horses
from the stable when they had been re-
freshad bv few days rest, and were
feeling well, and because they were
pretty risky while they were being har-
messed AID the off 10 Sc did not keep
the urow we'll at the first send of.
would get out of patience and yell at
his team till finally they would break
into trot, when he would throw the
pillow to the full depth into the first
hummock he could find, bring the team
to a iul stop, and by this time they
would be well in slather'' and quiz
ing with excitement After he had
yelled for few minutes, and the horses
had become fully II ghtened, they had
used up enough strength to move the
pillow for an hour.
i he other man knew better. When
he Of served, while ''hjtching up" that
the horses heads were carried high,
and that they were feeling tirst-rate, he
would say to himself '.There is a
good head of steam on to-day, and
shall be able to get Q cd days work
out of these fellows if Isave it all to be
used to the be advantage There
fore he would speak n as quiet t ne
as possible, would move gently about,
and aim to get mis- team adeld without
the risk of any rumpus or excitement,
and would bear with a few irregular
tiles, such as getting out of the furrow
and pulling 10y fits and starts lew
times. i he consequence would be that
when they were warmed up to their
work, they would move on smoothly
and at the same time quickly, and at
hn of l,n n
row OF nice fresh burrows to show as
an equivalent for the ''steam'' the other
man had used up in mere fret ard
fume and worry and passion.
AS it is with la ger animals, SO IT is
true of fowls; if you at all times ex-
ercise kindness toward them, tley will
doubly repay you for your care and
kind attention. -4n7ertcGn Poultry

shadow without pause they fed, and al
ways the sound of the quick coming
canter behind.
Once Molly thought of the rifle hang
ing on its hooks above the mantel in the
dear home kitchen. She had brought
down many a wild goose or marauding
hawk with it, and . that she had it
in her hand now.
They were just entering upon the
fourth mile and the coming canter
sounded perilously near, when Molly
saw at a turn of the road a hOrseman
approaching, and as he drew near-O
JOY too great almost for reality IL was
Jack Thompson himself on his own
sorrel horse with his ride at his saddle.
He looked his surprise at the breakneck
speed with which MOllie came on, and
his surprise did not lessen as she refined
Baal by his side, turned pale, reeled in
her saddle, then making mighty effort
to regain her compOsure giggled con-
vulsively and ended by dropping the
reins, and her head, too, on Baal's neck
and sObbing outright
Bat all this was soon explained Jack
was Tor riding back and settling the
rascal then and there; but the ''ras-
cal, whoever he may have been, must
have seen farther pursuit was useless
certainly Jack and Molly both heard
the sound of his horses steps dying
gradually in the distan e.
1t was early evening, a young moon
in the sky, as the two rode into the
poplar-shaded yard. Molly was warm
~ welcomed, and then Baal beng in
trOduced, the condition OF his coat was
observed, and the story of her peril and
escape told. Baal became a hero from
that hour. Nothing was too good for
him, and if he was not fed on gilded
oats, Ike CaligUla's famous charger, it
was because he preferred them green
and l do not dare to tell you to what an
age he attained.
But this 1 will relate-that not many
years after, Baals mistress, with the
new master she had given him, took
their wedding journey on his back, Jack
in the saddle and Molly on the pillion
bch nd, to Boston to visit an aunt of
Jack who lived in palatial mansion
on Franklin street.
Molly's children and grandchildren
often heard the story of this ride from
her lips. | have heard it myself, sit
ting by the open fireplace -grandmam-
ma on one side, her pretty, soft, old
lady's hands busy with the much-lovod
knitting-wOrk, and graudpapa oppO-
site, still tall and handsome, with his
courtly manner, his old-fashioned dress,
the RULED shirt-bosom and frills at the
waist, always the realization of my
ideal of a gentleman of the old re-
gime. - Vide AlOu6e.

The present season promises to be
more favorable for fall seeding than
last year, which, owing to the drouth,
was very bad year; this year the
ground has been kept moist by frequent
rains, and the prospect now is that
this will be a favorable month to
seed down land that has been planted
several years, or land that is now in
grass and needs turning over and re-
seeding.
In seeding down to grass there are
two mistakes that farmers often make.
First, not much more than half seed
enough is sown. Second, the soil is not
half prepared. 1t is very poor economy
to try to save money by sowing a small
quantity of seed. The result is there
are many vacant places, thus leaving a
chance for weeds and undesirable vari-
cites of grass to come in, which having
gained a fOothOld will soon begin to
crowd out the desirable varieties. An
effort should be made to SOW seed
enough to cover the land so thick with
young plants as to crowd out every I'M
desirable variety that tries to get in. In
this way much better quality of hay
will be obtained, and the crop will be
satisfactory some years longer than
if only half seed enough is sown. Many
farmers seem to have an idea that they
have but little tO do to prepare a field
t. SOW grass seed, except to simply
pillow il and run an A harrow over it
few times TO level it; but this IS not
enough. If a good crop of grass is ex-
pected it is necessary to not only thor
oughly pulverize the soil three or four
inches deep, but to mix a liberal supply
of manure with it. As it is generally
expected that the land when once seed
ed will remain in grass several years,
it pays to not only apply liberal guam
tity of fertilizers, but TO apply some
thing that is not all ut once available for
plant food. Ground bone. il not very
fine. will do this. and is therefore one
of the best fertilizers to apply 10 land
that is TO be seeded down 10 grass that
is to be found in the market, especially
if applied it connection with good wood
ashes or potash. Land MANFRED with
these two fertilizers viii produce good
crops of grass several years in success
sion without top dressing. -AGssael1t-
