Farts fnT the Cnrlona. The greyhound runs by eyesight, only, aud this we observe as a fact. The carrier-pigeon flies his two hun dred and lifty miles homeward by sight —namely, Horn point to point of'ob jects which he has marked ; but this is only our conjecture. The fleree diMgon-fly, with twelve thousand len ses In his eye,darts from angle to.pngle with the rapidity of a flashing sword, and as rapidly darts back, not turning In the air, but with a clash reversing the action ot his tour wings, and in stantaneously calculating the distance of the objects, or he would dash him self to pieces. But in what conforma tion ot the eye does this consist. No one can answer. A cloud of ten thousand gnats dance up and down in the sun, the minutest, interval between them, yet no one knocks another headlong upon the grass, or breaks a leg or wing, long and delicate as they are. Suddenly, amidst your admiration of this match less dauce, a peculiarly high-shoulder ed, vicious gnat, with long, pendant ! nose, darts out of the rising and fall- j ing cloud, and settling on your cheek, inserts a poisonous sting. What pos- ' sessed the little wretch to do this? No one knows. A carriage comes suddenly upon al flock of geese on a narrow road, ai d drives straight through the middle of them. A goose was never yet fairly run over, nor a duck. —They are under the very w heels aud hoofs, and yet somehow they contrive to flap and wad die off. Habitually stupid, heavy and indolent, they are nevertheless equa to any emergency. Why does the lonely woodpecker, w hen he decends his tree and goes to drink, stop several times on his way, listen and look round, before he takes ids draught? No one knows. How Is it that the species of ants which is •tukeu 111 battle by other ants to be made ©laves, should be black, or colored ants? No one knows. The power of judging of actual danger, and the free and easy boldness 1 whieh results from it, are by no means uncommon. Many birds seem to have a most correet notion of a gun's range, and while scrupulously careful to keep beyoud it, confine tlieir care to this caution, though the most obvious re source would be to fly right away out of sight, and hearing, which they do not choose to do. And they sometimes appear to make even an ostentatious use ol their power, fairly putting their j wit and cleverness in antagonism to that of man, for the benefit of their fellows. We lateh read an account i by a naturalist in Brazil, of an expedi tion he made to one of the islands of the Amazon to shoot spoou-bills, ibises, and other of the magnificent gralfatorial birds, which are most abundant there. —His design was com pletely baffled, however, by a wretched little sandpiper that preceded him, continually uttering his tell-tale cry, whieh at onee aroused all the birds within hearing. Throughout the day did this individual bird continue his self-imposed duty of sentinel to others, effectually preventing the approach ol the fowler to the game, and yet manag ing to keep out of the range of his gun. Tlie Bahama I'lueapple. A large proportion ot the area of the Bshama Islands is devoted to the culti vation of fruit, of which oranges and pineapples are principal; and at the present time the fields in the estates on which the pineapples are growing form a peculiar feature in the landscape. The appearance of the broad expanse of young fruit, with its clusters of deli cately tinted, but slia-p and serrated leaves, rising only a short distance from the ground, and covering tlie undulat ing fields, produces a very remarkable effect. In 110 other branch of agricul ture can so curious a picture be pro duced as in the growth of these vast numbers Of pines. As many as a mil lion and a half of the fruit have been collected from a single acre atone crop. The appearance of these pineapples estates has as little In common witli the sugar plantations or paddy-fields of the 1 ropics as wim the corn fields or vine lies of Kurope. In a short time these pineapples will be making their ap pearance ih the Foreign markets. They are shipped In an unripe state, aud ma ture during the voyage, ar.d hence are not so excellent in quality as the fine hot-house fruit, or as if they were properly ripened in the ground. The pineapples of New Providence, how ever, are superior to any other variety, and often attain an enormous size. One grown In Pembrokeshire,weighing lbs., and measured Kfj-g In, in height, exclusive of stalk and crown, and 22 in in circumference, was served up at the coronation banquet of George IV., and since then the improved modes of cul tivation have greatly increased the size and quality of the fruit. There is an enormous demand for the Bahama pineapples both in Europe and America and a new Industry has lately sprung up in the Island in preserving the fruit u tins when they are fully ripened; one lactoiy in Nassau alone exports an nually a million tins, valued at £16.000. These fruits are superior to those sent away earlier in the season, as they are ripened naturally and packed in per fect condition, instead of being gather ed when only half ripe.

HRMAWAV GRASS.— Comparatively few tanners raise litis crop, though it is very productive and excellent for most kind of stock, If led in the proper man ner. The time between sowing and harvesting is shorter than tor any Held erop raised on farms. It is useless -in this latitude to sow it early in the sea son. To produce a good crop the'en tire growtk of the of ttie plant must take place during very warm weajJier. If sown at the same time oats are, the plants will make a very slow growth, and will remain stunted during the en tire season. The trouble some farmers have experienced with Hungarian hay has arisen mainly from allowing the grass to remain uncut till the-seed was nearly or quite ripe. It should be har vested as. soon as tlie seeds form and before they have commenced to mature. Another difficulty has arisen from the amount of dust Hungarian grass often contains. As it grows on laud that was recently plowed aud harvested, and oyer the surface ot which there Is no sod, much dust is likely to be disturbed in raking and pitching the hay. This may be prevented very largely by cut ting the grass quite high, and by gath ering It when it is cured with a hand rake instead of with a horse-rake. If gathered In this way and pitched on the cart when the ground 's moist with dew nearly all the dust usually found In Hungarian hay may be avoided. SOWING ORCHARD GRASS —Orchard grass Is very deservedly coming more into cultivation every year, both North and South, and it will perhaps benefit some to be told how to sow it. it should always be mixed with clover seed. To mix the seed properly, put down upon a floor half bushel of or chard grass seed, and scatter over that one quart of clover seed; repeat uutil you get astout pile say four or five bushels. Then mix thoroughly; spread ; out upon the flour, aud sprinkle water upon the pile stirring all the time until quite wet, then mix in plaster or dry ashes, or even bran, until sufficiently dry to separate when thrown Irom the hand. Throw it in bulk till next morn ing, when H is ready for sowing. Taken through this process it can be ' sown with as much regularity as wheat, regardless of ordinary winds. If it re mains in bulk more than one nignt in warm weather, it will heat, and must be opened. Except for meadows or standing pastures, orchard gntss is too expensive. For the ordinary shifts, it is better to use clover seed alone, as or chard grass does not do its best under two or three year*, when, if the land is good, it will have made a sod that will resist the action of Uie feet ot the stock in wet weather. REPAIRS IN ROADS AND PATHS. —It should be remembered that the worst spot in a piece of road, whether public or private way, measures the capacity of the team for hauling loads over it, or in other words, a team can draw be tween two given points onl> what it can draw over the hardest spot, wheth er it be a steep hill or a muddy slough hole, no matter how perlect the other portion? of the way may be. Any man would We con-idered a tool who should keep a good pair of horses for hauling loads and then persist in using them on a one-horse wagon, drawing but a halt load at a time, and yet that is just what we are all doing, w no year after year haul manure, farm products or mer chandise over roads that, by the ex penditure of a small amount of labor, wouid enable us to haul double the weight we now draw. April is often times a good month for making repairs in roads and paihs. How TO MANAGE A YOUNG BULL Vo make a first class animal lie should run with the cow till he Is six months old at least. If weaned earlier, feed on new milk just from the cow three times a day till he Is six months old, then twice a day till eight months, then once a day for a month or so longer. At an early day, say a month old, give him a little fine hay to pull at, and later let him have some oatmeal, a little oil cake, vegetables, ete., iutr. adng tlie rations gradually as he grows older, Weaning from milk should be grad ual and in pasture time. Ring his nose at eight months and handle him from that time on daily. After he is wean ed, feed as you would other cattle to keep them in the best condition. Do not handle the ring after it is put in until the wound is entirely healed, and rub on his nose some mutton tallow twice a day.

A DISCOVERT ABOUT CORN.— An ex change tells of a man who plants, two or three weeks after the crop is planted, a new hill of corn every fifteenth row, each way. And this is the reason: If the weather becomes dry after the fill ing time,the silk and tassels both become dry and dead. In this condition, if it should become seasonable, the silk re vives and renews its growth,but the tas sels do not recover. Then for want ot pollen, the new silk is unable to till the office for which it was designed. The pollen from the replanted corn is then ready to supply silk, and the filling is completed. He says nearly all the abor tive ears so common in con: crops, are caused by the want of pollen, and he has known ears to double their siz? in this filling. IT is said that six bushels of peas are equal to ten bushels of corn for fatten ing hogs, and that peas yield a larger number of bushels per acre than corn. EXPERIMENT shows that with Early Rose potatoes the smallest amount of seed in the hill yields the best crop.

To overcome this prostration, appeal is again made to the liquor as a stimulant, only to increase the gastric disturbance. The judicious application of such a tonic as Simmons' Liver .Regulator would strike at the very root of the evil by correcting the condition of the liver, exciting the bowels to action, or cor recting their looseness, stimulating the kidneys and removing the feeling of general depression, and with it the craving for liquor.
