Miscellaneous.
Tlio Old Fisherman's ''Hoys."
Very (soon n man came down to the wlmrf
with a crnh-nel. This Is a hoop cllhf r of
Iron or wood, weighted to nmWo lUlnl;, with
n small net attached under the hoop. Somo
bait Is fastened In the middle of tho net,
and the whole is lowered to the bottom by a
rope. Tho net is occasionally hauled up,
and sometime? there Is a crab In It and some,
times there is not.
"I knowed a boy once," said the old fish
ermati, "who came down here, one day, with
two crab-nets and a basket of bait. In each
of his nets ho put a big piece nf beef and
two or three good-sized fish.. Ho lowered
his two nets and tied the ropes to the wharf,
and he spent the afternoon first pullln' up
ono net and then tho other. I was a
mending a sail, and I kept my eye on him.
llo caught ono crab that whole afternoon.
'Now" look here,' says I to him, 'another
time you'd a great sight better eat your bait
and let the crabs alone. You bad fish enough
there to fry for supper, and beef enough
to make a big pot of soup for the whole fam
ily, and you've spiled it all, fishln for that
one crab, which ain't no good at all, by him
self.' 'Yes,' says he, 'but I might 'a' caught
a lot o' crabs.' 'That's so,' says I, 'and Gen
eral Washington migbt have marricd,Quccn
Victoria, if they'd lived at the same time,
and the families had beeu wlllin'.' "I tell
you what it Is sir," said the old fellow, as ho
walked away "there's lots o' peoplo In this
world who'd a great sight better eat their
bait before .they spile it and get nothln'
for It."
I knowed a boy once dowu here who
thought he was dreadful smart. I used to
take him out sailing every morning. He
wat a kind of sick, and he took Balls for his
health. He knew something about silling,
and he used to like to hold tho tiller, and
sail the boat himself, as he called it. He
cave lots of orders; but as I always took
care to tell him what to order, it was all
right. It would have doneyou good to hear
that feller sine out 'Hard-a-lee 1' as if there
was a whole shipful o' sailors in my little
boat. He used to sit there aud tell mo lots
of things that he thought I ought to know.
He would call out to me in a loud, clear
voice, which was pleasant to listen to.though
there wasn't often any senso in what he said:
'Look here, captain ! It's a good idea to
have your ballast well amldship, as you've
got it. It don't do to ballat too far for-red
A boat isn't safe if the ballast isn't fixed
right.' And he'd siy lots of things of that
kind, jest a if he was tellin' me somethin'
he'd found out, and that nobody else didn't
know. I don't remember all he used to say,
but tho sum and substance of it was pretty
much as if he'd hollered out, 'Look here,
captain! You always ought to put the mist
of a sail boat at the bow. If you was to put
it at the stern, you couldn't steer her very
well, with the main-sel a-sticking away out
behind, 'specially if she was cat-rigged and
bad no jib.' Well, one morning this boy
took a friend out with him to give him a
sail. This other boy wasn't sick. My boy
sat at the stern and was very proud to sail
the boat. He took It into bis head that the
other boy was a little skeered, and he kept
a-tryln' to keep his courage up. He would
aay : 'Nor, you see when a puff of wind
comes, and tips her over, I just bring ber
round a little into the wind, and she comes
up all right. There isn't any danger if the
man at the helm knows his business.' And
then he'd keep sayin': 'Now, don't you feel
a little more confidence ?" And the other
boy, who was a-sittin' quiet, lookln' as if he
was enjoyin' the breeze, and tbe views and
the sailin' would Bay : 'Oh 1 I'm confident
enough. I'm all right.' And my boy would
say to him: 'I'm glad of that. I don't
want you to be afraid. It's perfectly safe.'
Welt, one day I took that other boy out
sailin' by himself, and I tell you, sir, I was
surprised. Why, that boy knows ten times
as much about sailin' as my feller. He'd
been on sail boats at the North ever since he
was a little chap, be said, and I found be
knowed nearly enough to sail a boat by him
self. And says I to him : 'What on earth
did yon let that other boy talk to you that
way, as Ifjyou didn't know nothin', and you
no is,-

Then he braced himself firmly aud tasted a

And finding them quite to his taste he sat SJSIZSh

Devouring ono after another until
In a very short time ho had eaten his fill.
And he breathed a most heart-rending sigh
as he ceased.
"Ah I they say that enough is as good as a

Murmured littlo Miltiades Peterkln Paul.
"But I can't eat enough, I'm so dreadfully

Continued Miltiades Peterkln Paul.
"I have several big pockets.I'll just fill them

It won't do any harm just to lay in a few,"
Which was no sooner thought of, be sure,
than 'twas done.
He stuffed all his pockets quite full, every

Then he cautiously turned him about on

To crawl back, when a frightful thing hap

The War with Weeds. Agriculture is
a perpetual conflict with aggressive plants ;
a conflict which must even constitute a ma
terial part of tho labor necessary to be ex
pended in ia well-conducted farm. It is
therefore necessary, with a view to economy
as well as the unal success ot llie operation
that such labor should be wisely directed.

A Cawous Custom. A singular custom
prevails lo the village of Benwick, near
Stroud, Gloucestershire, England. On the
1Kb, of April, each year, amid proceedings of
a somewhat boisterous description, the villa
gers elect a mayor for the ensuing year, aud
in celebration of the event claim and exer
cise the right of ducking some one in the
village pond. Tbe only privilege which tho
mayor possesses is that when he finds three
pigs sleeping together he may turn tbe mid
dle one out and lie down himself between
the other two.

The fallacy of "hollow horn," or horn-al
in cattle has long beeu exploded iu the minds
of those who have fully examined this sub
ject. A lecture of Dr. Creasy, of tbe Mass
achusetts Agricultural College, proves tbe
"hollow-horn" idea to be without founda
tion. He eays nnd proves that the horns of I
all cattle are more or less hollow according
to the length of the horn, and this arrange
ment of naturo has 1U uses. The professor
retated a case, where he was called to see
a sick cow ; the local cow doctor had also
been called, and they arrived at the same
time. They went to the stable. Being near
ly darl", there was hardly light enough to
see tbe cow ; but the cow doctor rushed In
and seized her tail, and after a short exami
nation said: "Just a I expected a very
bad case of horn all," then going forward to
feel whether her horn were not cold, he
found she waa a"mooley," having no horns)
But even this did not floor him. "Well,"
said he, "She would have bad horn all, if
