A Young French Criminal Under

PARIs, Aug. 29,-A youth named Bail
let, convicted of committing several
atrocious murderswas beheaded at Danai,
in the department Du Nord this morn
ing. The execution of this young crimi-
minal was remarkable because he ex-
hibited the most callous demeanor. The
Young criminal chatted gaily until the
last. When in front OF the bascue OF the
guillotine and upon the point of being
thrown upon that sliding plank Bailett
shouted "Vive la republique." The
words were hardly out of his mouth
when the executioners seized the young
criminal, threw him under the knife and
a second later hs head rolled into the
basket.

we're II tickets that were counted for
the Republican surveyor having been
marked beside the Republican emblem,
and beside the name Of the surveyor,

That the scheme to defeat Republicans

in the same city. and that the plan to
defraud Republicans WIS communicated

Getting sheep Ready for winter.

Lambs should be removed from the
pasture gradually. Leave some green
feed 10 the field, aud rutarn them to it
for few hours day for a week or two.
This IS preferable to waiting until the
grass is frozen, affording no .nutrimeut.
or until an early snow covers it. The
change to dry food will be effected grad
Ga!ly. and intestinal troubles will be
avoided Eating frosted grass in the
fall is very likely to produce diarrhna.
and partial ration of hay will prevent
this evil t
Too great a corn diet is not good for
lambs. for, though they may thrive
through the winter on hay AMI corn. to-
ward spring they will become pot belled
and shrunken otherwise, and look smaller
than they we're in the fall. A great
difference is to be observed when they
get rations of oats. Those fed on the
latter grain are more livelysgrow better
are bright Of eye, active, AND flourish
Those on corn diet exclusively are dull,
drowsy and Inactive
Where corn is given it should make

Two 4 irds being wheat bran and oats.
Corn in the spring and fall may be fed
without i'll results, when the sheep are
getting full supplies of grass, as this will
counteract the heating qualities Of grain,
but 10 the winter, on dry rations, it is
hurtful in many cases. -.
Too much or too rich feeding will
SON get the sheep in bad condition, and
the farmer is fortunate who has supply
of roots, as these act as presen'jwe of
indigestion and keep the bowels open.

/ A Berlin dispatch says that Minister
Phelps has taken a peculiar and highly
original way of introducing American
meats and the great American staple,
Indian corn, TO the attention Of the Ber-
liners, and Of Germany generally. He
gave dinner on Sunday TO a nuulbef Of
German notabilites aud their wives, in
cludiug DR.. Miguel, Minister Of Finance;
DR.. De Boetticher. Secretary Of the In
terror, and number Of other leading
men Of The empire Of Prussia The ban
quet included all the luxuries Of the sea-
son, and was Of he highest order ID every
respect; but chief and peerless among
the dainties, from an American point Of
view. we're the bacon and corn bread
from America. Mr., Phelps evidently
has the benefit Of cook Who could not
be surpassed in Virginia in the art Of
making corn bread Ioothsome. and all the
German guests united in praise of the ar
ticle as presented on Mr.. Phelps table.
DR.. Miguel made some earnest remarks
in praise both Of the bacon ant the corn
bread, and said that hereafter corn bread
would be included among the supplies at
his table. What is more important was
the statement that the German duties on
Indian corn would soon be removed and
American corn bread fed to the German
army. thus rendering Germany indepen.
dent of Russian rye. Any step of this
kind would need action on the part Of
the Reichstag. which meets on the 18th
instant. and in which the question of
commercial treaties and the removal Of
duties will no doubt be discu ,scd with
considerable interest and luminosity.
