In a court not more than about five thousand miles away from the city of Gotham, a legal gentleman bad gone through the various stages of bar pleading, and had coaxed, and had threat ened, and bullied witnesses to his heart's content, when it chanced that a very stu pid fellow, an hoetler, was called upon the stand. lie was, in fact, simply pcrsouified The counsel, it should be premised, had made a great fuss about the previous wit nesses sjKiaking 6 low that he could not hear them. 'Xow, sir,' snid the learned counsel, 'I hope we shall have no difficulty in making you speak up.' He himself spoke rudely loud. '1 hope not, sir !' Bhouted out the wit ness in such bellowing tones that they fairly shook the building., 'How dare you speak in that way, Mr ?' demanded the counsel 'Cant speak no louder !' he shouted, louder than before, as if to alone for Ids fault in speaking too low. 'Have you !een drinking this morniug V asked the lawyer, who had now entirely lost command of his temjier at the roarn of laughter which burt from a crowded nu-' dience. 'Yes, sir,' said the witness, frankly. 'And what have you been drinking, sir ? liOok attlie jury don t look at me, sir, in that way.' 'Co&e, sir.' Did you have anything in your coffee, sir.' Yes, sir.' 'I thought bo,' said the conusel, with a glance at the jury. Well, sir, '.continued the learned counsel, 'you say you had some thing in your coffee. State to the jury if you please, what that 'something' was !' Sugar, sir,' answered the witness with out a movement of a muscle. There was another burst of 'furious laughter' throughout the lourt-room. This man is no fool, your honor, address ing the court, 'but he is something worse. Now, witness, you must come to the point. Had you anything else iu your coffee be sides sugar?' 'Yes, sir.' Yes you had. Well, we are likely to j:et at the truth, after all his. turning and twistling to the contrary notwithstanding. VvlU sU't hat else was it you haa in your j r i A spuue, sir,' shouted the wittiest. Jo j I make you hear me, squiic a spune .' That was the last witness, anil the last nfhim on the stand.

The Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals puts fcrth the following rules for the treatment of balky horses :. 1. Pat the horse upon the neck ; examine the harness carefully, first on one side then on the other, speaking encouragingly while doing so ; then jump into the wagon and give the word go ; generally he will obey.. 2. A teamster in Maine says he ean start the worst balky horse by taking bim oat of the shaft and making him go round In a circle till hu is gid Jy. If the first dance of this sort does not cure him, a second will. S. To cure a balky horse, simply place yonr hand over the horse's nose, and shnt off hig wind Until he want to go. 4. The brain of a horses seems to entertain bnt one idea at a time ; therefore, whipping only confirms his stubborn resolve. If yoa can, by any means, give him a new subject to think of, yon wiil generally have no trouble In storting him. A simple remedy ia to take a coople of turns of stout twine around the fore leg, just be low the knee, tight euongh for the horse to feel, and in a bownot. At the first check he will Dro- 'lD,T S? aaucing off, and, after goingashort di lance, yoa can ret out ami r..,nm, n. . " ........... .IU, B.lil i ptcveut injury to the tendon, in yonr further drive. 5. Take the tail of the boi?e bet ween the bind legs, and tie it by a cord lo the saddle girth. 7. Tie a string aronnd the horn's ear close to lle bead. Feeding Horses with Bits in their Mocths. Mr. E. B. Middlebrock Teterinary surgeon, in reply to a communication from the president of the society, says : "Pnt a string or a bit of wire in yonr own month, and after securing it there, attempt to cut even the man simple food. It will Interfere with the proper flow of saliva, which acts on the food during I lis process of chewing; it will interfere with the proper separa tion of the food before it enter the stomach ; the coustant friction of the bit while the animal is feeding acts slowly bat surely oa the enamel of the teetb, and thus causes the horse to lose the use of his teeth long before nature fixes thc limit, and makes hira old before hU time, and man loses bis Valuable services years befbrethere -is aay necessity lor it. Too are aware that men or animals die when deprived of the nse of the tongue ; now a horse with a bit in his mouth, while feeding, Is like an animal with only apiece of his tongue. It is true be can chew aud feed, but this is only don partially, imperfectly and inefficiently. It U therefore crnel, inhuman, and should be stopped by the strong arm of the law or your society. If the bridle is short, thc bit comes in contact with thc bicuspids and not only destroys mastication, but eventually the enamel of the teeth ; if long, the bit may pass between the incisors and the molars, and allows mastica tion, but only of an imperfect nature. I may be told that spirited anknals are frightened by re moving the bridle while in harness, the remedy is very simple, unbuckle the bridle on one side, and drop the bit; the bridle, nose-piece and blinds are thns partially detached, but ean be at tached in a minute. HOlSF.nOMI. Corn Viseoar. To make corn vinegar, boil a pint of corn nutil it Is a little soft ; pnt it Into a jar add a pint of molassess and fonr quarts of water; mix well together and set near the stove. In two days it will be good beer ; and in two or three weeks it will bo good vinegar. The same corn will do for six months. When the vinegar is made, ponr it off and add molasses and water to the corn. In this way you will have a constant snpply. Saratoga Fried Potatoes. The Mowing is is said to be all there is of the cook's secret for producing those world-renowned potatoes served, at Moon's Lake House, Saratoga Springs, every Summer: Peel good-sized potatoes, and sliee them as evenly as possible ; drop them Into lee water. Have a kettle of lard, as far fried cakes, and very hot. Put a few at a time into a towel, shake them about to dry them, and then drop Into the hot lard. Stir them occasionally ; and when of a light brown, lake them ont with a skimmer. If properly done, they will not be at all greasy, but crisp without, and mealy within. Death to the Buos.-The following recipe for destroying bugs on squash and cucumber viues has been successfully tried for years. It is certainly worth a trial : Dissolve a teaspoon ful of saltpetre in a pailful of water. Pnt oue pint of this around each hill, shaping the earth do that it will not spread much, and the thing is done. Use more saltpetre if you can afford it. Il is good for vegetables, but death to the animal life. The bugs barrow In the earth at night, and fail to arise in the morning. It is also good to kill the grub in peach trees ; only use twice as much say a quart or two to each tree. There was not a yellow or blistered leaf onr twelve or fifteen tree to which It was applied last season. No danger of killing vegetables with it. A con centrated solution, applied to Jouug beans, makes them grow wonderfully. from Godty'i Ladifs Book of Sept. Sfosob Piddinc Take three eggs, their weight iu the sheil iu flour, butter, and sugar, and grate the rind of a lemon very Sue ; beat the butler to a cream, aud the eggs, yelks and whites separately and then together; add the butter, and keep ou beating ; then mis in the sugar, aud lastly the flour ; then beat the whole till quite light.

To Remove Taint from Meat of Pocltrt. j If meat, poultry, or game has become rather I tainted in hot weather, the unpleasant flavif j may be quite removed by washing the part If i fected with chloride of sodt. first, and then.
