A Freak of Nature,

Del. Clark, Esq, of Glasgow, has a
rather singuiarly inclined hen with re-
remarkable paternal prOpensities to-
ward pigs. The fact is that the hen
in question recently Matched a brood
of chicks while an old SOW in neigh
boring pen had a litter of pigs: These
events happening spontaneously, the
offsprings were mixed la Buttercup,
and the SOW found an attachment and
preference for the young chickens, and
conversely the old hen gave wing to
the litter of pigs, or as many as she
could accommodate simultaneously.
The small pigs frequently obtain the
essentials of life from the old sow, but
otherwise profess no allegiance to her
and entirely ignore her existence ex-
cept at meal time, while the hen
stretches her wings to its utmost to
provide a covering for her several
sizes-too-large children, The sow is
not at all sentimental about the matter
but exercisesas much sOlicitude for her
chickens as pig is capable of doing
Mr.. Clark is quite proud of the freak
of ure..-EUery EUeniHg.

What are Agricultural Shows,

Will some person rise up and state
the connection between agriculture and
horse racing and dancing? They seem
to be linked together in the minds of
agricultural fair managers with hooks
of steel. The executive committee of
the Maryland Agricultural AssOcia-
tiOn at a recent meeting announced
the programme for the Fall meeting to
be held at Pimlco. What are stated
as the great attractions? Larger pre-
miums on cattle and farmers pro
ducts generally? Not at all. These
premiums will be about rs usual" ."
What are the new attractions? The
association proposes to make it one
of the most prominent racing pro-
gramme ever offered to the people of
Maryland, the exhibition to open with
ball in the grand stand.n Now as
horse racing at the present time is
largely confined to gamblers and dane
ing to dudes where do the prominent
agricultural features, the features that
! are TO make it a success as an agricul-
| tural exhibition, come in? Would it
not be better to call things by theiI
/ right names. The term agriculture
/ has suffered misuse enough at the
hands of Agricultural fair managers
Let the farmers on the one hand anC
the horse racers on the other come to
an immediate understanding and let
things be called by their proper names

our Little Ones (Boston) for June is

are also fun and wisdom for youthful
readers in the Voyage OF Robert the

Harper's Magazine for June is in
every way an unusually strong num-
ber. The leading article, The United
States Navy" is contributed by Rear
Admiral Edward Simpson, U. S. n,
and no one is more competent than he
to say precisely what our navy is and
what it ought to be. The other arti.
cles are the fifth paper Of the series of

of the culture of sugar cane and of
every phase of sugar making; the con-
clusion of Mrs. Craik's exceedingly in

Frank Leslie's Sunday Magazine for

its numerous full-page illustrations,

Teetotallers in Congress.

The Washington correspondent of
the Chicago Inter- Ocean, commenting
upon the efforts of DIR. Chickering to
secure the signatures of Senators and
Representatives to the pledge of total
abstinence says: Although we read
a good deal about the Incorporate
habits of Congressman, and hear of
scandalous speeches made in the Sen
ate, the number of teetotallers in the
latter body Is unusually large. / do
not believe there could be a gathering
of seventy-six men of such great prom
inence in any class of life, in commerce
or in the prOfessions-except, perhaps
a convention of clergymen-in which
so large a proportion of men could be
found who do not take liquor or wine
in any form. The Senate teetotallers
are Frye, Teller, Harrison, Vance, Col
quit, Chase, Mcmillan, Hoar, COnger,
Dawes, Blair, and Wilson, of Iowa, and
there are many others, embracing
nearly one-sixth of the entire body"
Where is Senator salisbury? He
leads people at home to believe he is a
teetotaller. How is it the correspon-
dent didn't include him ?-HarriHgtOn

The 0x-eyed Daisy and the English
Daisy,

Fashions change, and many ladies
are wearing in society and on the
street breastknots," as they were
once so charmingly called, of the
"ox-eyed daisy" which is the white
weed of our fields. Nevertheless it
is very pretty, and when worn singly or
as boquet, is quite deserving of the
temporary distinction that has been
given to it. But what we call the OK
eyed daisy is altogether different from
the true English daisy of the English
fields and wayside paths and of the bor-
ders Of cottage gardens, and should
not, as it too often is, be confounded
with it. In a pleasant communication
to the New York Ecening Post, a wri-
ter points out the radical distinction
between the American Ox-eyed daisy
and the "wec modest crimson tipped
flower" immortalized by Burns, that
is the glory of the English lawns and
pastures, has been the favorite of all
sorts and conditions Of people from
time immemorial. and whose praises
have been sung by Chaucer and
Shakespeare, by Burns and Words
worth, and host of minor poets and
pOetasterS.

The Summer MONDAY sun shone
brightly over the broad fields of farmer
Weston. The birds sang in the trees,
the insects hummed, and the merry
little brook near the house went tumb-
ling along merrily.
In the hay fields the mowers were
busy, and you could hear the voices of
the men, sOftened to a musical murmer
as the gentle breeze waited the sounds
toward the house.
On the broad piazza sat little girl,
with look of glad expectation on her
face, as she heard the sound of carriage
wheels. She ran down the avenue, in
time to meet a pleasant-faced man,
into whose arms she sprang, with all
the freedom of loved and cherished
child.
Oh, papa, have been waiting for
you l want to ask you something"
said little Alice, putting her hand into
her fathers, and leading him towards
the house.
Well, darling, what is it now? Do
you want another pony, or new dol, ,
or wooden leg for your rabbit? l
think you told me it was lame, did
you not ?" said Mr.. Weston, as he
went into the house with his little
daughter. Whew how warm it is !!
These July suns make us appreciate
our pleasant home and this delightful
/ shade"
" No, papa; it is none of those
things at all But do you remember
that little girl that stayed several days
last Summer at Mr.. Davis'?1
81 believe l did hear something
about it,"
Lizzie Davis says when she first
came she did not seem to know
about anything. When her father had
family prayer, she wanted to know
who he was talking to, and asked
such queer questions ABOUT so many
things"
"Well, daughter, do you want to &C
and stay with friend Davis awhile, and
learn about things? Is that it ?"
"Now, papa, you know l don't; bu
she was telling Lizzie about little cir
that was scarcely ever well, whose
mother was dead, and how badly sht
wanted to come to the country. and
was thinking, papa, if we could havr
this little girl come with us awhile, w
might make her well. But, she has
t little sister, and she would not leav
. her. Now, papa, couldn't you sen,

But, dear, this is rather a strang
request. You know we could not sen
;, for strangers to come to our home;
g might do our own children more harr
E than we could possibly do the other
good"
: But, papa, there is a society of Ii
dies in Philadelphia that are respOns
BILE for the behavior of the children
and you can send them right bac
again, if you wish"
well, they certainly have an eal
4. nest pleader in their behalf" said NJ
Weston, with a smile; but what pu

The Influence Of a Home.

In one of the narrow streets of the
city of Philadelphia, on Il hot, sultry
day in July, when the sun was scorch-
ing in its fiery light, little girl stood
by the window, gazing listlessly on the
dry and dusty street.
The child might in healthier atmOs-
phere have been thought pretty, with
her soft blue eyes and golden hair,
but the little pale face had a hungry
look, and a settled expression Of care
betokened rougher experience with the
worlds hardships than befitted one Of
her tender years.
Suddenly, as if she saw something
that interested her, she left her posi-
ton at the window, and running
through the open door, down the sun
ny street, soon returned with her arm
around little child.

sic? am afraid Aunt will be angry ;

Their father had gone away, to seek
the fortune which would not smile
upon him here, and the little ones had
been left to the care of a distant rela

children, had her own growing family
to think Of, so, as matter of course
they were left very much to the com

Jennie was delicate child Of abCu
/ ten years of age, and Bessie two year
younger, at the time they first appea
before our readers.
OF naturally impulsive disposition
and not having the proper restraint
Bessie was growing into very self
willed and petulent little girl, Otter
causing pain and trouble to those will
whom she came in contact, and
source Of anxiety to her more gentl
