Tobacco Growing.

Tobacco will grow we'll on any ground that
will raise good corn, but the richer the land the
better the crop will be. The seed must he
started as early as the 18th of March, in hot
bed, or, in this country, in very rich soil in
box, or boxes, in the house, giving it as much
sunlight as possible. 1t takes about 40 DAYS
for the seed to start, and from six to eight
weeks for the plants to attain sufficient size for
tsansplanting. II the plants get too large for
the hot-bed or boxes before the weather will
admit OF their being set out, they can be trans
ferred to cold frame, where they can be pro-
tected from frost by glass, until it is safe to set
them permanently.
rather weak solution Of hen manure makes
q good dressing for the plants after they are
permanently set. The plants should be set on
cloudy day, il possible, from three to three
and half feet apart each way. Absolutely
clean cultivation is essential to success. The
worms which infest tobacco must be killed by
hand; but as they are very large and not ex-
tremely numerous, this is not hard lob but re-
quires constant watching. Mornings is the best
time to kill the worms.
As the plants get large they begin to throw
cut shoots for the blossom: these must be kent
pinched back to force the growth Of the leaf.

AN ORIENTAL MONSTER.

Rhinoceros Ever Brought to America.

Description of the First Two-Horne1
Rhinoceros Ever Brought to America.
A quadruped curiosity has arrived in
this country from Sumatra. 1t is one
of the two-horned species of rhinoceros,
a female, with a young calf, and, from
the extremely vivacious demeanor of
the interesting couple. the double
barrelled' strangers appear to have
taken kindly to our climate. Viyacity,
indeed, is characteristic of these bulky
animals, and, both when hunting
sportsmen and being hunted by them.
they have displayed such address in
their tactics and such agility in
getting over the ground as surprised
their adversaries. To look at thew
would seem but poor hands at running,
but once set off, their pace is said to be
perfectly astonishing. Their massive
bodies covered with weighty skin, their
ponderous heads. and short legs all
denote creature that is tardy in
movement and naturally sluggish; but
such is far from being the case, for as
soon as the rhinoceros is fairly con-
WINGED that it has a good and sufficient
reason for being active, it bestirs itself
to such purpose as to make it hard for a
swift horse either to escape its pursuit
or to overtake it when in flight OF the
two contingencies the latter, so far as
the sportsman is concerned, is i'm
measurably the safer, for the gigantic
beast has not only the speed and the
courage of wild boar, but has such

itself can not stand the shock of its
onset. Its temper, moreover, is as
snort as Its legs, and very little indeed
suiflces In rhinocerontic philosophy to
constitute sufficient provocation. To
wake one out of its sleep is quite
enough, even though no malice Dre-
pense can be proved against the tres
passer; to meet one face to face when
IL is browsing its way along the river
side is more than sufficient. In either
case the spleenful brute charges the
stranger without hesitation and with
positively terrific impetuosity. There
Is no reservation about its conduct, no
opportunity given to the incautious
visitor for making any mistake as to
the ANIMALS intentions. If he wishes

ne had better do so in writing later on:
IN the meanwhile, it is best to get out
OF Its way. There is no leisure given
for explanation of the intrusion. The
beast comes down head first, with a
snort that says, "Out you CO." as
plainly as ever snort said ANYTHING.
This snort, by the way, sounds like the
sudden letting off of fully-chareed
steampipe, kind of furious ''whuff."
which is singularly expressive, and
means as we have said, prompt eiec-

HE HAD HIS WAY.

The First Train Ever Run by telegram
Reaches Its Destination After a Ssv.r.
Struggle.
In 1850 the Erie road was in epera-
ton between Piermont and Elmira.
The track was a single one. such thino
as double-track being then unknown
in the country. Two years before, after
much discussion and opposition, a tele.
graph wire had been put up along the
line Superintendent Minot, vino was
man long way in advance of the
tunes, was a strong believer in the
practlcability of the telegraph as n fa-
cllltator OF transportation on railroads
In the summer of 1850 he was a passen-

was TO meet through train from She
west at Turner's Station, fortv-seven
miles from New York. When MIR. Mi
not's train reached Turner's he learned
that the east-bound train was six hours
late, owing to some mishap. Under
The system of railroading then goyern-
ing employees the west-bound train had
to remain at Turner'S until the DELAYED
traln passed the station. In fact, the
whole business of the road from there
west was at a standstill, OWING
70 the non-arrival of the train
at the different stations where
other trains were awaiting it. Super
mtendent Minot saw at once how ride
ulous such system was. There was
a telegraph office at Turner's, and il
was then the only one between that STA
ton and Jersey City. The Superin-
tendent went to the office and made the
operators hair stand by SENDING
message to the station agent at Port
JARVIS that he intended to run the train
ne was on from Turner's to Port Jarvis
on the time of the belated eastbound
train. He ordered the agent not to LET
any train leave that station GOING east
until the train he was on arrived there
tie also ordered the agent to TELEGRAPH
to him how he understood the messaGe

went to the conductor
of the train and told him him to start
On with the train. The conductor re-
fused to do so, and the Superintendent
discharged him on the spot. Minot
Jnen ordereu the engineer TO pun out.
The engineer said he would not take
the risk, and'in the argument that fol-
lowed the Superintendent dragged the
engineer from the cab, gave him IN
elegant dressing-out, and mounted the
foot-board himself. He ran the train
to Port Jarvis and sent it on west Us
far as Narrowsburg before it met the
late train, thus saving the passengers

lion of the accuracy of the telegraph
