A Horse Ruined by a Stallion.

From the Washington tGd.) Chronicle.
Messrs. Edward and Alfred Rorie are
renting a one-horse farm from Mr.. George
Tucker on the place belonging to John B.
Smith, and their plough team is black
stallion. Mr.. Tucker also is farming on
the same place. One night last week
Mr.. George Tucker and Mr.. Alfred Rorie
put their horses in the same stable as
usual and went to bed, the stallion being
in stall next to the horse owned by
Tucker. About midnight an old woman
living on the place walked them up with
the information that the horses had been
fighting about an hour. The most fearful
screams could be heard from the direc-
ton of the stable, and when Tucker and
ROrie reached the stable the sight presen-
ted was CHASTITY one. The stallion had
the other horse down on the ground and
was literally chewing aim to pieces. The
top part of the horses neck was almost
eaten of, and cuts, kicks, and bruises
were visible on all parts Of his body. 1t
was with difficulty that the stallion could
be made to lose his hold, and the horse
was found to be entirely ruined. There
is no hope of his recovery from the fear
full wounds received, and Mr.. Tucker will
be Obliged to buy another horse. Mr..
Tucker is a very industrious man, and
the loss of his horse at this season of the
year is great misfortune to him.

Carp Hatched in Four DAYS.

From the Washington (GG.l Chronicle.
Mr.. Henning Murden, of Taliaferro
county, has carp pond, and watches
their habits closely. On Tuesday he put
pine and cedar brush in his pond, and on
Wednesday evening noticed that the fish
were spawning on them. On Sunday ar
ternoon following he broke off small
limb which was covered with eggs and
carried it to his house to place it in q
glass jar, so as TO have few pet fish.
In little while after the jar was filled
with water his daughter noticed that one
of the eggs was Matching, and in a short
time the little fish were bursting out in
every direction. Within 80 minutes
every egg on the limb had Matched
AS fast as the fish were released from
their prison houses they sank to the bot
tom Of the jar. and remained ten or fifteen
minutes, apparently to rest and get
strength, after which they would rise to
the top, and commence their life of SWIM
ming.
This experiment shows that the carp
eggs hatch out in four days, and that
when they commence the process is
almost simultaneous. Mr.. Mur6en re-
lated the facts to the writer himself. He
says that he has made a great success in
his fish pond, and is satisfied that the carp
is the fish for his country.

The Awful Motber-in-Law

From the Athens GA Banner- Wdtch1nan.
Sanders Smith works at the Athens fac
tory, and is the proud possessor of a
mOther-in-law and wife. Trouble arose
in this happy family, and Sanders tried
what virtue there was in good hickory
on his wife, and gave her a heavy dose of
hickory oil. The motber.iD-law, who is
always ready TO pour the oil of comfort on
trouble, persuaded her daughter to 90 to
Justice Fuller and take out a warrant.
They accordingly went to the Justices
Office and proceeded to make oath
that Sanders Smith had maltreat-
ed his wife. While Justice Fuller
was placing his spectacles and trimming
his pencil Sanders Smith made his APP
pearance and inquired: "What is de
objee OBJ dis meetingW The mother-in-
law arose to explain that it was for the
purpose of getting out a warrant for his
arrest, but Sanders was still in war
like mood, and went for her in the most
improved style. The mother-in-law was
knocked out on the first round, Marquis
of Queensbury rules not observed. San

Albertus Vegt has dog of rare intelli-
gence. He is given the market basket
every morning, and with great delibera-
ton and dignity proceeds to the butchers
and returns with the saVOry steak. Inc
other morning a note deposited in his bas-
ket contained twenty cents. DE went to
HIPS market, got the meat, returned as
far as Agnew's, set down the hampers,
deliberately ate the contents, then went
to Taylor's meat stall, got his regular
supply. and took it home.
The gales did good job for the bar at
St. Augustine. A new channel has been
developed there which carries I Il feet OF
water at low tide, and at high tide schoon-
ers drawing feet of water pass over
without bump. This new channel is to
the southwark of the old one, is straight,
and has been properly buoyed out. With
a proper system of jetties there is no
doubt that both these channels would
improve in depth of water instead OF being
gradually choked up again.
At Sorrento the fruit crop of the coming
season, aside from semi-trOpical fruits,
has been much benefited by the cold OF
last winter. Mulberries have ever been
so plentiful, and the peach and plum trees
are how covered with nearly fulLgrown
fruit, and promise large yield. Orange
trees are setting their fruit, and while
some varieties are literally covered with
blossoms, others show scarcely any
bloom. The crop will, however, come up
to the average of the last few years.

ing, it was decided to form a stock COM
pany, purchase the institute property,
and thus keep this school in Orlando.
Much enthusiasm was shown in the
meeting, the necessary amount of stock
being taken in few minutes. Messrs.
Lartigue, Acres, Taylor, Weber, and
others constitute the stock company.
The school will still be under the foster
ing care of the Methodist church, though
not sectarian school IN any sense.
