Some rather startling computations
have been made on the subject of hog
breeding. 1t has been found that. if
permitted, hogs will live from fifteen to
twenty years of age, that they commence
breeding when they are from nine to
twelve months old, and that from ono
pair only in ten years, allowing only sir
to litter, male and female, upward of
6,434, S39 pigs would be obtained; that
is to say if, instead of three acres and n
COW, q countryman started with some
acres and pair of pigs, he might in the
course of ten years count their progeny
by millions. This is not reckoning on
any out of-thc-way basis, for it has been
shown that one sow actually produced
355 pigs in twenty filters; while at an
exhibition of the Agricultural Society a
boar was shown which, although only
twenty months old, wa, already the
father of 1,466 hogs. Here then is
wealth for tho million.

4 FABLE FOR YOUNG WIVES.

Men are naturally less amiablc and
more lntractablc than women. The
first point, thel efore, to secure IL mar
rlcd woman's happiness after the holi-
days of the honeymoon are over, is that
she should study carefully the peculiar
itcs of her husbands temper. 1t is in
the power of a wise and good woman 10
make lamb of the greatest bear that
ever wore whiskers; while by foolish
treatment the process may be reversed.
and generous lcaried creature, with
oil the capabilities of lion, mag end in
being bear or a wolf. A wife must
tread on her husbands temper first rs
cautiously as prudent boy does upon
recently formed ice. Only when she
has learned where the slippery humor of
her husband will bear, and where it will
break, can she perform with safety those
graceful evolutions by which devoted
wife achieves greater triumph, han
ever Bonapartc did by his artillery.
Wise old Plutarch, dcscartin3 on the
topic, very appropriately brings in the
old fable Of the traveller, whom Boreas,
with his obstrcpcrous bass, tried to
aisrobe Of his good great coat; bu: the
result was quite otherwise; the more
violently Borcas pulfc his cheeks, the
more closely the man wrapped his Goa.
about him. But what Borcas could not
achieve with all hi, Strength, the sun
lid with few slight touches of his
genial beams. The man was so over
come by the softcning influence that he
flung both COAX and tunic away. So
let no woman foolishly attempt to gain
from her husband in rough way what
she can surely achieve by gentlcness. =

The French Elections.

Mondays Examiner says: Gener-
al BoIlanger appears t" have won a
signal victory over his enemies. His
triumph is the more remarkable for
having been achieved against extra
ordinary obstacles. Declared an out
law by the Government, forbidden to
be candidate, his election placards
torn from the walls by the police, and
with every possible impeachment
placed in his way, he has nevertheless
emerged from the oblivion of his exile
completely victorious.
The Post, an evening paper, with
lator new3 By twelve hours, says: The
elections in France on Sunday were
tho most exciting the republic has
yet had. The Boulangists and Mon
archists made great efforts to make a
showing, and sustained so crushing a
defeat that they can never hope to
recover. They have elected less than
80 members. The Republicans have
elected probably 800 members, and
are stronger than ever in the Cham
Der, members being better united
than in the last Chamber. The cleo
ton has shown the strength Of the

at the time of his wife's attempt to

the only motive to which Mrs. Penni-
cards desperate attempt to take her

stated that she had no recollection of
shooting herself and that she must
have been laboring under temporary
