Incongruous Finn Arenns.

The people who live side by side in the pretentious avenue know each eth CT not says New York letter. Knickerbocker and parvenu, the Inheritor of wealth and the archi- tect of his own fortune, the genuine gentleman and the vulgar snob, reside in the same block. One house is visi- ted by the best and most distinguish cd; the house adjoining by men who talk loud in suicidal syntax, and women who wear holly-hocks in their hair. and yellow dresses with pink trim mings. Here dwells an author whose works give him large income; over the way, fellow who has a genius for money-getting, but who cannot solve the mysteries of spelling. Some of the most spacious and expensive mansions on the avenue always have a deserted look. Only the occupants and ser wants appear on the high, carved stoops; only the carriages the masters of the establishment owns stop before the door. That family purchased house in the avenue, but society has not accepted it's members They have nothing but new fortune to recom- mend them. They must bide their time The first generation of the un- recognized fares hard. The second is educated and the third claims lineage -prates of "gentility" and frowns up- on what its grandparents were.

Those who are indiffer- ent to mere fashion are in request; for not to seek, socially, is usually to be sought.

RAvAGEs OF THE PLAGUE.
The Epidemic Spreading Through Franco
 and Spain.

MADRID, Aug 15-The cholera returns for Friday show 1880 death and 1885 new cases throughout the country. The returns, are, however, not complete.
 In Granada the cholera is increasing fear fully. In the province, outside the city, there have been reported to-day 2l8 deaths from tue disease and 485 new cases, and in the city 2l3 deaths and 455 new cases. The popular agita- tion against sanitary interference has been renewed in Seville. Tho local authorities have all resigned. The shops are closed, no busi- ness is being done, and the scourge has an unobstructed field.
 The Spanish Consul at Gibraltar reports that cholera has appeared within the Spanish lines. A dispatch from Gibraltar says there havo been only three fatal cases of cholera there, all occurring in one house, which had forty seven inmates, and was in a bad sanitary con- dition.
 A gratifying decrease is reported in the number of cholera caaes in Madrid to-day. In the capital there were 19 new cases and II deaths, and in tho province 72 new cases and 28 deaths. In Saragossa the epidemic is de- creasing slightly. In Granada the condition is terrible. Many doctors are dying Whole streets arc infected with scourge, by which entire families have been carried away.
 The totel number of deaths in the infected provinces since the outbreak of the epidemic is 57 coo, and it is estimated that 60,000 per sops have fed from the kingdom.
 More complete returns for the past twenty four hours make tho number of new cases 5,600 and the number of deaths 1, $50.
 The epidemic has appeared in the founding hospital and other public institutions, and in the best quarters of the city.

The Value of Orchard Grass.

Orchard grass, or cocks-foot, is one of the most valuable of grasses for many farms. Hiram Sibley, Roches- ter, N. Y, in his "Grain and Farm Manual" says:
 "If it were better understood we think it would be more frequently sown. The seed is usually sown in the chaff, and it costs considerable to sow an acre. Two bushels to the acre is usually sown if used alone. It is very sensitive to good or bad treat ment. It is emphatically grass for strong, rich land, where 1t yields a heavy crop. The grass comes up well and early, makes a good, strong plant which grows in tufts or punches. It looks triie coarse, but is tender and palatable. It will not spread and makes handsome turf. It is one of the very first to make good "bite'' in spring, or after it has been closely fed or moved of. The plants flower quite early-about the same time as red clover. If cut while in flower or very soon after, 1t makes first-rate hay. It suffers as much by going beyond this period as any grass with which we are acquainted. Ripe orchard grass makes very poor hay. We think here is where many fail in its management. They are not ready to cut it as soon as it should be cut. Orchard grass makes excellent permanent pasture in many places. In other places it is soon crowded out by June grass or other grasses. It is not troublesome grass to kill by ploughing, as is often the case with June grass or Quack grass. It is by all means worth trying by ev- cry farmer in the Northern states. It succeeds in the dry climate of Kansas, endures drought and yields abundant ly; it succeeds in New England and on the highlands of the South"

Ills Horse was Tired.

The experience of the sunstroke sol diers of the Second Brigade week ago reminds reader of his experience as a raw volunteer at the breaking out of the war. With a number of three mouths men his regiment had been mai . ing under so hot sun, over so dusty roads and for SO many hours, that even the toughest veterans might have been ex- cused for growing. At last, when it seemed as if endurance was positively at an end, the commanding officer cantered gayly up on a milk-white steed and said : "Colonel, think we might halt and go into camp as soon as we reach a suitable spot, My horse is tiredl" After that, when it seemed to the boys that their commander was marching them un- reasonably hard and long, there was sure to come a voice from somewhere in the ranks, asking: 'Isn't that horse getting tired?n This officer was a gen tleman and humane and kind-hearted man, but he had had no experience in the ranks, and he didn't think"

AFFAIRS IN ENGLAND.
Queen victorin's Speech to the Two Houses

The English parliament was prorogued Fri day. Queen Victoria in her speech, In speak ing of English affairs says: An endeavor, which was intellectual, was made to reach Khar- toum by constructing a railway from Suakim to Berber. My troops were ultimately with drawn from the whole of Eastern Soudan, ex- cept Suakim, and from Western Soudan down to Alashyert. Although the objects of the expedition were unattalned, have great req son to be proud of the bravery and endurance displayed by my soldiers and sailors, and of the skill wherewith they have been command cd.
 The death of the Fl Mahdi will probably enable me to perform with less difficulty the duties toward the ruler and people of Egypt which events have imposed upon me. l shall not relax my efforts to place government and good order in that country upon firm foundation.
 My relations with other powers are of 8 friendly nature. Difficulties, which at one time were of an anxious character, arose be- tween my government and Russia concerning the limits of the territory of my ally, the Amir of Aghanistan. Negotiations for their adjust meut still continue, and will, trust, lead at an early periol to satisfactory settlement.
 Tho progress of events in SJuth Africa has compelled me, in the interests of the native races, to take under my protection Bechusna- land and certain adjacent territories.
 I am taking the necessary steps to place the northwt st frontier of my Indian Empire in 8 condition of adequate defence, in the absence which the prosperity and tranquility of my In- dian subjects are liable from time to time to be interrupted and disturbed.
 I regret the depression which has so pre- vailed in many of the important trades and agricultural and manufacturing industries Of the country, and which still continues. have directed the issue of a commission to inquire into the causes Of this country, and to ascer- tain whether 1t can be a'leViated by legisla- tiOn.

FOR TIRE FARM ANDMuM1.
1krain Fruit Trees Low.

There was some excuse when the country was new and the first land cleared was planted with fruit trees, for training tree tops high, so as to be out of the.way of the horses in plough ing or to,grow crops under them. But we have hong since learned that no crops grown under trees pay their c.>st. It,would be better still if teams could not get within ten feet of the trunks, and weeds or grass beneath them were kept down by mulching. Low tops ans more convenient for gathering fruit, and are less liable to be blown off By severe winds. A low topds easily kept in proper shape, as it is not necessary to procure high lad ders to do the required pruning. Low tops also protect the trunk from in- jury by exposure to sudden variations in temperature. They are peculiarly valuable in regions of severe frost, as they protect the stem and branches from the rays of the sun, which melt the frost in the tree to suddenly.

Then.my oldest boy thought he saw them, and I lost him, Then I started my next boy after him. and just as 1 was coming oyer here lost my other boy in the crowd. Then i started after them and got lost myself. ?

stances There are about as many tricks in horse-sealing as there are flies in dog-days.
 It is very important to blow barley stubble where wheat is to be sown as quickly as possible after the barley crop is off. Unless this is done the advantage in sowing wheat after barley is little over sowing 1t after an oat crop.
 Palms and ferns should be in shady places and cactuses in sunny quarters. Protect the pots from the direct sum- shine, else the young roots next them will get hurt All evergreen plants want water, and at this time of year lots of 1t. -..
 If a farmer desires to know how COW feels that jumps fences to get something to eat, let him put himself on half or quarter rations for a month or so. He will then have more sym pathy for her, and will see that she has fu! supply.
 In pruning trees aim to distribute the cuttings sufficiently throughout the entire tree. If there is twice too much top it might be reduced by cutting off all the branches on one side, leaving the other half untouched. If tree looks too thin another year s growth will fill it up.
 Kindness to domestic animals means thrift and prosperity; abuse and neglect result in viciousness of dispo- sition, loss of time unthrift, and re- duction of market value. When this understanding becomes universal, mans happiness and prosperity will have been greatly augmented.
 Grow 8 crop of string beans and pack them away in layers, using salt as packing material, and they will keep till beans are in season again. The crop grows quickly, is easily re- moved when the ground is wanted again, and yields we'll Grow them in succession, if you want them tender and choice. The German black wax are the best.
 When turkey chicks run with their own mother they should be fed re- gularly and only towards night. This will induce them to come up every afternoon for their feed, when they may be enclosed for the night Dur ing the day the turkeys will do better to forage for themselves than to rely on what can be given them. Shutting up at night is important while the chicks are small, or else the old hen will draggle them through wet grass in the morning and soon lose more than half her brood.
 Every one knows how difficult it is to remove weeds from the garden walk when they have once become rooted and grounded. Salt is one of the remedies most frequently employed, and the following is said to be the best way of applying it: Boil the salt in water, one pound to the gallon, and pour the mixture boiling hot out of watering pot with spreading rose. This will keep weeds and worms away for two or three years. In subsequent applications the solution may be some what weaker. It will be as well to take care that none of the liquid falls on the garden mold.

COTOPAXI IN ERUPTION.
The Roar of the Volcano Sounds Like an
 Artillery Battle Bt GunyaquiI.

We have news of another eruption of the elebrated volcano of Cotopaxi. La Ndcion of Guayaquil, of July 23, has the following de- scription of the event:
 'At about o'clock this morning we were awakened by a heavy artillery, apparently from guns of the heaviest calibre, which could not but alarm us. We sprang up hastily from bur beds, and hurried to the balcony of our house to ask the first passer-by what had hap pened. But the street was deserted, and the explosions followed one another in wonderful Tapidity at times, and at others causing con Iinuous roar, shaking the earth and causing the windows in the doors of the house to rat tie. We heard no clamor of trumpets, nor the opposing 'vivas' or 'mueras' which are so frequently heard in battle, but only what seemed to be an artillary combat of colossal proportions. What could it be2 "What might it beP
 "A telegram sent from Chimboto, Quay aquiI, communicates the fact that in that city, situated almost at the foot of the gigantic volcano, there was what the residents along the river Yana Yacu call an aluvion. The damage done is probably considerable, as 100 houses were destroyed. The number of vic- tims is not known"
