FOR THE FARM AND HOME Chicken Cholera. It is epidemio, characterized by a diarrhoea, as a rule, and very destruc tive to life(says the Journal of Agricul ture). The disease is generally sud den in development. Fowls will lay on one day and the next day be carried off by the diseasa Still it is not always or frequently eo rapid in its course. We had previously examined thepreni ises where the birds had been kept through the winter, and found they were too crowded, twenty-five birds roosting in a space about six by seven feet and four feet high, in one corner of a dark and badly ventilated stable, and believe the cause of the disease to have been virtually blood poisoning, induced by uncleanliness, careless feeding and close, unventi lating quarters at night. Cropa In Orchards, A Yermont corespondent of the Practical Farmer gives some of the re mits of his experiments in cultivating Drchards, which, although according with the experiments of others, may oe useful. Sowing wheat in an orch ard always checks the growth of the trees, even if the ground is manured. Oats are exhausting, but less so thnn wheat. Com and potatoes both an swer well, and the cultivation they re ceive benefits the trees. In one '"n stance half an orchard was sown with wheat, and the consequence was that it was put back two years as compared with the other half. Wheat in a thrifty young plum orchard ruined it. To these statements we may add the fol lowing: A neighbor set out a hun dred peach trees, cultivating a part of the ground in potatoes, and the re mainder was put in wheat. None of the trees in tho potatoes grew less than a foot and a half, and some sent up shoots two feet high. Xone of those which stood in the wheat ground grew more than three inches. Clover n Fertilizer. A stick of wood burned on the sur face mostly pjisses off into gas, leaving only the ashes; but the same stick, if burnt in a coal-pit excluded from the air. forms a uyiss of carbon of nearly M* quite its original size. Now. all de lay of matter is a slow com bustion, and when this is done-under the soil, not only are the gases ft**, tained in the soil, but more caibon is formed, and this carbon has the power to appropriate the valuable gases al ways present in the atmosphere. The great value of clover as a fertilize** is due. first to the carbon furnished by the decay of the plant, and second to the fine mechanical effect on the soil, which renders it porous, so that the atmosphere penetrates it and deposits plant-food. It is clear that better fer tilizing effects will result from the ploughing down of the crop to dec.ay in the soil. Ordinarily more can be made out of the tops than they are worth for manure, and, if rightly man aged, the roots will supply the needed fertility.— Pennsylrania Farmer. Wet Pasture*. One of the most serious obstacles in the way of successful dairying is aw et pasture. Land that is saturated with water produces unwholesome herbage, the grass is rank and sour, and some times the herbage consists wholly of sedges and other coarse plants that are not easily digestible. Such food can not produce good milk, and the milk made from such food will not make cheese or butter. But very often ihis coarse, rank food produces disease in the cows. This is more especially the crse with yearlings and young cat tle whose digestive powers are not fully matured. Another injury results from the use of such pastures. Vapor is constantly arising or settling over low wet lands, and the presence of this vapor greatly affects the temperature. Every farmer knows how frosts occur upon such low grounds when higher lands are free from them. Now, all these influences seriously affect the health of cattle feeding on such lands. The vapor arising from them is loaded with poisonous germs, which infects the blood when they are breathed into the lungs. The moisture which settles down upon them is cold, and as it con denses into visible vapor this absorbs from the cold air various unheal! hful and injurious gases which are always arising from the decaying vegetable matter in the soil. Every one knows more or less of what malaria is and how it affects persons. Cattle are as subject to these atmospheric poisons as human beings are, and what we know as malaria frequently produces dis eases which cause wonderment and surprise to tho owners of the sick ani mals. So the cold which causes the frost in these low places chills the ani mals, and a chill to a milking cow is most apt to affect the udder first and produce garget, at which again the owner -wonders, and for which he can not account. Pregnant cows suddenly chilled in this way, especially by lying down upon the ground, lose their calves, and still again the owners wonder how that can happen, when every care, as he supposes, has been taken of the animals. But such things are caused by wet, undrained pastures, and every farmer should by every possible means remove such a constant danger from his farm by draining these lands. This is the sea son for such work, and wherever it 1 needs to be done the opportunity of doing it should not he missed.— New York Times. Tloiift*holoo B. C., an em press, to whom a grateful posterity as signed a place in a celestial constella tion, perfected the art of unravelling the cocoon and weaving. From that time silk culture had its principal seat near the northern portion of the Yel low river, in the province of Chan- Tong. There was produced the silk for the royal household. Yellow was the chosen color for the emperor, em press and prince imperial, violet for the other wives of the emperor, blue For-distinguished officers, red for those less conspicuous, and black for every one else. In the bix,' of rites, Li-Ki, the ceremonies performed ai 'be har vest are carefully described. Keen the empress did not disdain to gathir the leaves of the mulberry with he' own dainty fingers and watched over the rearing of the busy toilers of the ! cocoon. For a longtime this valuable indus try remained the exclusive property of the Chinese empire, but about tiie third century before the Christian era a military expedition from China bore the results of its civilization to the Occident. Silk became known in Per sia and India, and was at last brought to Europe. The soldiers of Crassus, fifty-six years before Christ, saw silk en standards among the Parthians, and a few years later an immense velarium of silk protected the spectators in the Roman circus from the rays of the sun. From this time the Romans were always provided with the beautiful textures which were the admiration of their legions. Vet silk was still the privileged possession of the rich, and in the time of Aurelian, who flourish ed in the third century, was worth about foity times its present value. The True Cent lonian. The following sketch of the true gentleman was found in an old manor house in Gloucestershire, England,writ ten and framed, and hung over the mantel-piece of a tapestried sitting room : "The true gentleman is God's ser vant, the world's master, and his own man. Virtue his business, study hie recreation, contentment his rest, and happiness his reward. God is his fath er ; the church his mother, the saints his brethren, all that need him his friends. Devotion his chaplain; Chris tianity his rhamberlain ; sobriety his butler ; temperance his cold army, and afterwards a general in the Confederate service. He was president of the Savannah Gaslight Company, and a di roctor of the Georgia Central Railroad. At each corner of the Calvert street bridge, Baltimore, is placed an immense stone statue of a lion. These statues are of a beautiful workmanship and cost several thousand dol i irs. Some unknown vandal committed a villainous act. He broke off tho tails of every one of the lions and managed o de stroy the beauty of the statues.

At Corinth, Miss., a daring attempt was made to rob A. McWillinms, the Southern express agent. He had just placed in a safe a large amount of money received a few minutes previously from an east-bound train, when suddenly a masked man entered the room with a drawn pistol, and demanded the safe-key. Without waiting for n reply he tired on McWilliaras, the ball striking four inches below the right nipple. McWillinms threw a lighted lamp at the robber, drew his pistol and fired three shots, but with what effect is not known, and has not been seen since. It is thought that two persons were engaged in the contemplated robbery, as a colored man saw two men running away from the express office after the shooting. GENERAL NEWS. LONDON.
