Ing ready in the harbor. The prison CTS went on board, but L2treille was not among them, for vigorous efforts were being made in his behalf The ship at last set sail, but it was never to reach the South American coast. The vessel foundered before it was out of the Bay of Biscay, and every prisoner on board was drowned. No wonder that Latreille afterwards, in one of his great chronological works, when de- scribing the kind of beetle that he found in his cell, and speaking of it under it's scientific name of Necro6iG rufcoLttS, calls it s'an insect very dear to me, for in those disastrous times, when France groaned tremulously under the weight of endless calamities, this little animal was the miraculous cause of my liberty and safety"
 After this providential escape. Lat relies friends were so far successful that he was permitted to come out of prison as a convalescent, although it was stipulated that he was to be deliv- cred up whenever the authorities wanted him. After 6 time, however, his friends managed to have his name taken of from the list of those who were to be exiled; and so, though even King Louis himself was put to death by the furious French people, yet this man was saved to become "the Prince of En- tomology," as he was surnamed But, although he was one of the greatest scientific men of France, and published numerous works on his favorite study, and became Professor ot Zoology in the Museum of Natural History in Paris, yet he never forgot his miraculous de- liverance; and, after his death, an obelisk raised to his memory at Pere la Chaise hadengrayed on it a large figure of the little beetle that had been guided by Divine hand to visit his particular prison cell and become the means of his deliverance from death.-Mary E.

The Somewhat Peculiar But Patriotic
 Army Led by Washington. ...i ..1
 It was motly assembly, in all sorts of uniforms and without any uniform at all, with all sortsqof weapons and with precious little powder. So little was there, that, Washington was very anxious lest the British should find out how little he had; and so while he was urging Congress to provide supplies, he had barrels of sand with powder cover ing the top, placed in the magazine, so that any spy hanging, about night be misled. Some of the soldiers were in tents, some were guartered in one or two college buildings then standing. and some built huts for themselves. The most orderly camp was that of the Rhode Island troops, under General Nathaniel Greene.9T F'1al 1atl
 The men were in companies of various sizes, under Captains and other officers who had very little authority over the privates. for these usually elected their own commanders. A visit or to the camp relates q dialogue which he heard between a captain and one of the privates under him. .;-.,e 00QI @ ''Bill,'' said the Captain, ''go and bring pail of water for the men.''
 '.I shan't," said Bill. .'It's your turn now, Captain; I got it last time" 3" But the men, though under very little discipline, were good stuff out of which to make soldiers. Most of them were dead earnest, and they brought, besides courage, great skill in theluse of the ordinary musket A story is told of a company of rifemen raised in one of the frontier counties of Pennsylvania. So many volunteers applied as to em- barrass the leader who was enlisting the. company, and he drew on board with chalk the figure of nose of the com mon size, placed the board at a distance of hundred and fifty yards, and then declared he would take only those who could hit the mark, Over sixty suc- ceeded. "General Gage, take care of gour nose" says the newspaper that tells the story. General Gage, as you know, was the commander of the British forces in Boston. HorGce Scttdder, ta St. Nicholas. d t .-S

ConstantinopIe Street-Sweepers Demand
 ing Eighteen Months Back Pay.
 The hestreet-sweepers of Constantinople, not having received any pay during the last eighteen months, recently went on strike, the authorities having told the men that before the new loan was made there wasno money to be had. About fortnight ago the men had become so destitute that they assembled, armed themselves With brooalsA and spades, went to the government offices, and de- manded pay in loud and threatening words. = ....-.--~
 Shortly after their arrival a high off claI drove up in his open carriage, and was at.once stOpped-by the rioters, who politely demanded their due. The an- , sverrs that. having waited eighteen months, they might as well wait a little longer. raised a fearful tumult, and the life of the officer was in serious danger till regiment of soldiers arrived on the spot and dispersed the men, not, how ever, until they had received one month's wages and the assurance that sas soon as the new loan was made they should all-be paid Then the weapons were laid sdown,- the noise ceased, and the street-sweepers' strike came to an end.-PaH MGu Gazete. ,~r-

Point. His printing office was at the corner of Baltimore and Gay streets. Fades was enthusiastic over the song, and seizing. a copy fresh from the press he hastened to the famous tavern of Colonel McConkey, next door to. the Holiday Street Theas ter, where actors and lookers-on were in the habit of gathering to see the citi- zen-defenders go through their daily drill in Gay street. It was a quaint. old, one-story frame house, formerly kept sbys the Widow Berling. Major Frailey and Captains Long and Warner, of the Thirty-ninth Regiment, also ac- companied Captain Fades to the hostelry to hear MT. Keys poem read. It was early in the morning of the 18th of Sep tember, 1874, the defenders had assem- bled for drill, and joy beamed in every face over the victory MT. Key had di- rected Fades to print the words "Air- Anacreon in Heaven" at the top of the poem. All gathered to listen as the verses were read by the printer, and that they struck the popular heart was no longer a question of doubt. But who shall sing the song? 'Ferdinand Durang," cried one; Ferdinand Du- rang,'' exclaimed hundred voices. MT. Durang was clever vocalist, and being thus appealed to he mounted an old-fashioned rush-bottom chair and sang "The Star-Spangled Banner. for the first time in the United States. All present joined in singing the grand chorus. The effect was like flash oi electricity Soon the whole town, the whole State and the whole Union was singing the song There was-a clever actor then playing, at, the Holiday Street Theater named Paddy Mcfarland. The managers, Messrs. Warren X Wood, advertised that Paddy and the whole company would sing ''The Star Spangled Banner" every night after the play, and the theater was not large enough to hold the crowds that came. MT.

Some Pertinent Points Aboat Summer and
 Winter Eeeding, q EE$E. e 1t. is, customary when cattleare turned =out to grass in--the~ spring to Jet them feed son this succulent food until nature dries itsup in the fall Ifmakes good succulent beef, but is it not too sue culentP Does it afford as much. nutri; ton. pound for pound, as hay, grain and root, or ensilage-fed beefP We sus- pect tnot. The bowels of the cattle are always loose, showing that there is a superabundance of water and imperfect digestion. Is the, animal quite healthy? Iz Now, in winter, Wesfnd that all dry feed is not as good for cattle as that which is relieved by one feeding a day of some kind of succulent ration. The bowels of the~cattie get too costive. -The droppings are. hard, showing a lack of water and fe9erish condition. The sue- sct1ent food relieves this. May itsnot also be true that all succulent food in summer is not so good as a mix ture with dry feed? Throw a look dry hay to your cattle in pasture and see how they will rush for it, and how greedily they will devour it. Does not this indicate a need of dry feedP Would it not regulate that extremely loose condition of the bowels? And would it not make the meat frmer and more nutritious? In. the light of reason, it would seem so Is not the idea worth a fair experiment? |
 Some may say that grass is the natural food of cattle. So it is, in their natural state; but where they can live without the aid of man, the feed is not the same aswithus Our animals are in an artificial condition. They live on comparatively dry feed half of the year. Their sys- tems are not wholly adapted to all green feed. Besides our grasses are cultivated ones. We are a long way from wild nature in many things. This should always be borne in mind. We think the winter and summer feed ought to more nearly agree, and not be quite so succulent in summer, nor so dry in winter. .-Nationat LiUe- Stock Journal.
