Farm, b Anion and Household. Stray Farm Hairs. First-class farmers are gathering first - class crops this spring, that it, crop* of manure. A member of the Elmira Farmers' Club, declares that the discussions of that live body have been worth to him hundreds of dollars. A paper gives the following ad vice: "Take good care of the hired men And heroes. Let them haw plenty to eat and sufficient time to rest, but while at work keep them lively." An English farm item is to the effect that a tenant was fined & 50 and coats for endeavoring to catch a rabbit that had taken refuge on adjoining propei tv, aid rabbit having destroyed '2,000 eati llage plants. An Euglish writer, speaking from ex perience, recommends the protection of trees from teeth of robbiU, sheep, or larger stock, by tacking loosely around the stems galvanixed wire netting, say of 1} or 2-inch mesh. There are 10,000,000cowa in the Uni ted States, or, one to fouijperaonK. These cows do not yield on an average more than 50 pounds of butter oaeh, and therefore, the quantity per individual is only IS) pounds a vear, or about two thirvla of in ounce a ilay. The /VurriVu/ htrmrr gives the fol lowing average for last season of the number of ponml* of milk reouirod at the Worth Factory in Pennsylvania to niakeonepound of cheese in each mouth: April, 9.47; May, 8.98; June, R. 8 3; July, 9.119 ; August, 8.97 ; September, 8.49 ; October, 7.fil ; November, 7. 118. There is no enro for any snch canni bal propensity among hens as eating egg* or each others feathers but sum mary execution. In most oases, how ever, it may be prevented by feeding frosh meat or offal from the "butchers, aud leaving no frosen eggs in the neat, and feeding no egg shells. As soon a* a hen ia discovered breaking eggs let her be made a swift example of before she teaches the trick to others. Col. Geo, E. Waring, Jr., writ** to The Practical fhrmr that as the result of much experience ami obm>rrtioD in the matter, tie would newr think of eon strnoUiig * stable without putting a ma mine collar under it, unless in a case whore the lay of the land might make the plan impracticable. "It saves labor; it saves manure ; and it does not make a bad odor in the stable. All that is needed is to ventilate the cellar in some other war than through the stable—and this it is very easy to do." The expense of building a cheese factory sufficient far the milk of 300 cows would be $3,000 to 94.000, accord ing to the style of architecture. The internal fittings would cost from SI,OOO to $1,300, or within a tride as much as for a factory suitable for twice as many cows. It is a Question if a factory for 300 cows would piy expenses for the reason that the building, fitting, and superintendence would require an out lay nearly as great as one able to torn out twice or thrice the product. The question as to whether sheep should oe washed before shearing is again to the front. Various opinions axe given ; some think they ought to keep up the standard of honesty, others that it is best to half wash, others favor no washing, but it is agreed by all it would be wise for farmers to unite and either wash or not wash. As things stand at present he who does not wash, or who washes poorly makes moat profit, because, as is alleged, buyers seldom can tell the washed from the unwashed, being instructed to pay a certain prise, or not beyond it, and they are not par ticular. If they would actually pav for washed wool what it is really irorti the case would be different. The cause of a cow giving bloody milk mav be the result of inflammation of the udder, the formation of a tumor upon some of the lacteal or milk vessels ia consequence of inflammation arising from various causes ; or it may result from rapid driving or chasing "by dogs when the adder is filled with milk, or from a blow or bruise. If from the first mentioned causes it might possibly be remedied by giving one pound of Epsom salts with "one ounce of ginger, and bathing the udder where bard spots may be found with warm water, accom panied with gentle rubbing, and draw ing the milk three times a daw. If it arises from the last-mentioned causes, their immediate suspension will proba bly work an earlv cure. Hinging Hog*. R. N. Pendleton writes; I see in the report of the proceedings of the Far mers' Clnb, that yon recommend ring ing hogs to prevent their rooting. Please tell me the method yon would adopt. About five weeks ago I turned seven shoats and pigs on a good piece of sod. I procure . from a tinner about a yard of wire about the size of a knit ting-needle, and cut it into pieces about four inches long; then I took an awl and made a hole throngh the snont, ran the wire throngh, bent it ronnd a small iron rod so as to make a ring about an inch in diameter; tested the ends and filed them off They have all gotten the rings out bnt one." They managed to work them throngh the gristle, in sev eral cases tearing them out, and now are rooting as much as ever. What kind of rings do you use? Are there rings made especially for this purpose, and if so, where can they be gotten ? F. D. Curtis—The rings of our cor respondent were too large in diameter, and the wire too small. The ring shonid be just large enough to clear the edge of the hog s snont, and no larger, or they will catch fast and tear ont as his did. Small wire will eat through the gristle much sooner and easier than larger. Another thing, the twist of the ring must not be long, or it will catch fast and hinder the pig from eating. A 1 letter material than wire is to have a blacksmith make the rings out of rail road iron, with a hole punched in one end and the other pointed to pass throngh it and fasten with a twist. The iron shonid tie flattened and put through the snout with the flat side crosswise. This sort of ring will not tear out easily. Insert the rings at the bottom or base of the rim aronrnl the snpnt, and tbev will hold much longer. Heat the wire before using, and it will bend and twist much better. Triple Team, For using three horses abreast we have sn ordinary doable-tree, bnt as long as two singletrees ; to each end of this attach a singletree by a small clevis or otherwise ; now make an iron bar about 1J by J inch, and 8 inches long; punch three holes, one at each end, and one two inches from the first, snd one four inches from the second ; weld links in the first and second holes ; this bar stands npright behind the doubletree ; now attach the doubletree by clevis to link in first hole, attach the plow to link in second hole, snd at tach the middle singletree to the third or upper hole by a piece of chain or rod, so that the middle singletree will be as far forward as the others ; now hitch each horse to his own singletree. In answer to Mr. Parmalee, I would say throw the plow toward the farrow by means of the clevis, or by shifting the beam on the standard, or both otherwise. Wood A*hcs. A correspondent of the lowa Ilonw stcad finds wood ashes, after fifteen years' use, to be worth a dollar per bnshel for dressing fruit trees. Some years ago a nurseryman of Ontario county, New York, informed ns that a good dressing of ashes had donbled the growth of his young pear-trees, as com pared w'th the growth of trees without the ashes. Others have made as favor able reports. Yet the resnlts vary in different localities snd soils. We nave applied ashes to young pear-trees in the same way precisely as the nursery man just stated, with no visible result. While, therefore, they are generally more or less useful, the benefit must be determined by trial in each locality. There never was a more tonching story than that of the little Birmingham girl who, hearing that the cemetery was flooded, crept out of her bed early in the morning and was soon found, waist deep in water, weeping over her mother's grave. The little thing feared that the grave would be washed away. HIP l.aoe* of a Prince**, U list It Coals in Snpplj- a HDHUII Xhlf nomuM'a Wnnlrobf l.sraa T linn* dir.l Irnra nf ARC.

She said the lost laces were inherited from her grandmother ami four auuta. They were all antique*. None were of a mesh or pattern uow made. They were all from two to two and a half centuries old. •• I left an of mv trunks iu London, and brought six with me. I had many valuables besides my jewels, such as cashmere shawls, fur cloaks, Silwrian sables, a toilet of ermiue furs, and one of astrakan, a white cashmere opera cloak embroidered with gold, and twelve or fourteen hats from Paris, drosses of velvet, of silk, and of muslin. Several handsome silk -drosses, made in Peris, ready for the laces tote sewed on them when worn. My drosses were alwsra made in that mauner. I also had six doßen pairs of dross kid gloves and four dosen pairs of riding and traveling gloves. "I valued the laces at $200,000. I hud the laces complete for five different drosses. Each set peculiar, and all its laces complete for the skirt, corssge, hair, and mantilla, and for some tunica, and for others, points or scarfs. The lady described the six dresses she wore as follows: " Mv bridal dress had three flounces. Each Bounce was two feet in width. It was of Mechlin lace; sometimes thqpugh mistake called regency luce. 1 do not mean it was made in Mechlin, not by any means. It was of the Mech lin mesh, antique Malines it is some times calledi There was in this set all the laces for the corsage, the hair, and mantilla. " The second dress was of old point d'Angleterre. Two flounces, a cape or fichu, and some smaller laces. It was of the Elixabethau period. The Queen of England is the only person in the world who has anv lace like it. "The third dress wasof Flemish lace, also very old, two flounces two and a half feet wide, also laces foi;the corsage, mantilla and hair. The small laces of this set were very valuable. " The next dress had five finances of point d'Alencon, not modern point, nor the point which was revived by Napo leou L, bnt the antique lace made two hundred Tears age, first in Alencon. " The fourth dress was of some Rus sian lace, like that made in the lace schools of Russia established by Peter the Great " The fifth dress was of Flemish lace, and the laces of the sixth dress were similar, but I am not sure they were of the Flemish stitch." New York lace experts who had seen and examined the dresses confirm her statements as to-the quality and valua of the laces, and the loss is heavy even to a Russian princess. Una!red Chambers. The following sensible advice is given ns by s corespondent in the Country Gentleman : " I pass some houses in every town whose windows might as well lie sealed in with the walls for any purpose they have bnt to let in the light. They are never opened, summer or winter. In winter it is too cold ; in the snmmer the flies stray in, or, if they are netted, the dnst sifts throngh the nets. Now, lean tell a person who inhabits such cham bers when I pass him in the street— there is snch a smell about his clothing. I always wish for a sniff of cologne, or hartshorn, or bnrnt feathers, or some thing of the sort, to ' take the taste ont.' A house that is never aired has every nook and corner filled with stale odors of cooked meats, boiled vegetables, es pecially cabbage and onions, which, as the weeks go by, literally reek in their hiding places. " Who has not wished sometimes to hang a new servant's clothing out of doors some frosty night nntil it should be thoroughly aired ? But I have seen the fine ladies come sweeping into church with their velvets and silks, when said velvets and silks gave unmistakable evidence of having beea housed in jnst snch shnt-np chambers. Oh, what a tale that odor of pork and cabbage tells about the lady's style of housekeeping 1 The very garments of the children tell the same story of nncle&nliness. It is bad to have unwashed clothes, bnt there may be an excuse for it. But what excuse can there lie for ntiaired ones, when air is so cheap and free? There is death in snch unaired chambers. Better a swarm of flies or a cloud of dust, better frost and snow in a room, than these intolerable smells. Dear girls, the first thing in the morning, when you are ready to go down stairs, throw open your windows, take apart the clothing of your beds, and let the air blow through it as hard as it will. There is health and wealth in snch a policy. It helps to keep away the doc tors with long bills. It helps to make your eyes sparkle and to make your cheeks glow, and to make others "love your presence. Girls who live in those close, shnt-np rooms, can only li toler ated at the best in any circle." Wholesale Executions in Chins. The Tern] is, in its Indo-Chinese correspondence, reports a horrible fact which marked the surrender to the imperial troops of a city occupied by the reliels. Hin-Cheff, which hail long been in the hands of the insurgents, has fallen into the power of the army. Though but little blood was shed dur ing the siege, after the capitulation all the defenders, to the number of six hundred, were lieheaded, although they had snrrend-d voluntarily. An English adventurer in the service of the Chinese army, and and at the same time correspondent for the Sbangai Courier, was present at the execution.

Debts of Nations. It is a moderate estimate in Europe that the world is in debt nationally to thr extent of 20,925,000,000 of our dol lars. The average rate of interest is four and a half per cent., and hence these nations pay nearly $942,000. As a general rule, the nation which owes most money is the best treated. Great Britain owes, in pounds sterling, 790,- 000,000; France 748,000,000; United States 440,000,000 ; Italy 300,000,000 ; Russia 355,000,000 ; Austria 306,000,000; Spain 261,000,000; and Turkey 124,000,- 000. The greatest borrower of all these —viz : Great Britain, is certainly the best trusted, and only has to pay at the rate of three or four per cent, interest, while the two of the borrowers who bor row least are the least to be depended upon, and have to pay their eight or nine per cent. Under the Falls of Niagara. A Thrtlllna Otwrlpil** of * Ureal IVaßitrref Nature. Prof. Youman'a gives us a description of a viait under the Niagara l-'alL. He savs>— \Ve descended the stair ; the handle of a pitchfork doing iu my case the duty of an alpenstock. At the bottom my guide inquired whether we should go 'first to the Cave of the Winds, or to the Horoeshoe, remarking that the latter would try us most. 1 decided to gel the roughest done first, and he turned to the left over the stouea. They were sharp and trviug. The base of the first {sift ion of the cataract is covered with iiige bowlder*, obviously the ruina of the limestone ledge above. The water does uot distribute itself uniformly Among these, but seeks for itself chan nels through which it |xmr torrential ly. We passed some of these with wet ted foe*, but without difficulty. At length we came to the aide of a more formidable current. My guide walked along its -dge until he reached its least turbulent portion. Halting, he aanl, ** This is our greatest difficulty ; if we can cross here, we shsll get fsr toward the Hor*e#hi>e." He waded in. It evidently required all Ins strength to steady turn. The wu 'er rose above his loins, and it foamed still higher, lie had to search fur foot ing, amid unseen iKiwldero, against which the torrent rose violently. He struggled and swayed, but he struggled successfully, sud finally reached the shallower water at the other side. Strotchiug out his srui, he said to me, " Now come ou." 1 entered the water. Even where it was uot mote than knee-deep ita pjwrr was manifest. As it rose around me, 1 sought to split the torrent by present ing a side to it ; but the tusecurity of the footing enabled it U> grasp the loins, twist me fairly round, aud bring its im petus to bear upon the Imck. Further struggle was impossible ; aud, feeliug my balance hopelessly gone, 1 turned, filing myself toward the Itank 1 had just quitted, ami was instantly swept into sliallow water. The oil cloth covering was a great in cumbrance ; it had lieeu made for a much stouter man, and, standing up right after my submersion, my lega oc cupied the centers of two bags of water. My guide exhorted me to trv •again. Prudence was at ray elbow, whispering dissuasion ; but, taking everything into account, it appeared more immoral to retreat than to proceed. Instructed by the first misadventure, I once more en tered the stream. Had the alpenstock beeu of iron it might have helped me ; but, as it was, the tendency of the wa ter to sweep it ontof my humls rendered it worse than useless. I, however, clung to it by habit. Agaiu the torrent rose, and again 1 wavered ; bat, by keepiug the left hip well against it, I remained upright, and at length grasped the hand of my leader at the other side. He laughed pleasantly. The first victory was gained, and he enjoyed it. "No traveler," he said, " was ever here be fore." Boon afterward, bv trusting to a rieee of drift-wood which seemed firm, was again taken of! mv feet, but was immediately caught by a protruding rock. We clambered over the bowlders to : ward the thickest spray, which soon lie came so weighty as to canse us to stag j ger under its shack. For the most part nothing could lie seeu: we were iu the midst of bewildering tumult, lashed by the water, which sounded at times like the cracking of innumerable whips. Underneath this was the deep, resonant ,; roar of the cataract. I tried to shield ! my eyes with my hands, and look nn- I ward; but the defense was useless. My , | guide continued to move on, but at a .; certain place he halted, and desired me j to take shelter in his lee and observe i the cataract. The spray did not come ( j so mnch from the upper ledge as from ; the rebound of the shattered water I when it struck the bottom. Hence the ! eyes could be protected from the blind 1j ing shook of the spray, while the line ot vision to the upper ledges remained !to some extent clear. On looking up ward over the guide's shoulder I could see the water bending over the ledge, while the Terrapin Tower loemed flt j fully through the intermittent spray gusts. We were right nnder the tower. A little further on, the cataract, after its first plnnge, hit a protuberance some way down, snd flew from it in a pro digious bnrst of spray; throngh this we staggered. We rounded the promon tory on which the Terrapin Tower stands and pushed, amid the wildest commotion, along the arm of the Hsrse i shoe, until the liowlder* failed as, and the cataract fell into the prufouud gorge of the Niagara River. Here my guide sheltered me again, and desired me to look up; I did so, ; and could see, as before, the green gleam of the mighty curve sweeping over the upper ledge, and the fitful plunge of the water aa the spray be tweeu us and it alternately gathered and disappeared. An eminent friend of mine often speaks to me of the mis take of those physicians who regard man's ailments as purely chemical, to be met by chemical remedies only. He contends for the psychological element iof cure. By agreeable emotions, he says, nervous currents are liberated which stimulate blood, brain, and vis cera. The influence from ladies' eves enables mv friend to thrive on dishes which would kill him if eaten alone. A sanative effect of the same order I ex perienced amid the spray and thunder of Niagara. Quickened by the emo tions there aroused, the blood sped ex- I ultingly throngh the arteries, abolish -1 ing introspection, clearing the heart of all bitterness, and enabling one to think j with tolerance, if not with tenderness, on the most relentless and unreasonable foe. Apart from its scientific value, and purely as a moral agent, the play, I ; submit, is worth the candle. My com | panion knew no more of me than I en | joyed the wildness; bnt, as I bent in the shelter of his large frame, he said, " I should like to see you attempting to : describe all this." lie rightly thought it indescribable. The name ot this gal lant fellow was Thomas Conroy. We returned, clambering at intervals np and down so as to catch glimpses of the most impressive portions of the cataract. We passed under ledges form i ed by tabular masses of limestone, and through some curious openings formed by the falling together of the summits of the rocks. At length we fonnd oar selves beside our enemy of the morning. My guide halted for a miulne or two, scanning the torrent thoughtfully. I said that, as a guide, lie ought to have j a rope in such a place ; but lie retorted ; that, as 110 traveler had ever thought of ! coming there, he did not see the neces j sity of keeping a rope. He waded in. The struggle to keep himself erect wns evident enough ; he swayed, but recov ered himself again and again. At length he slipped, gave way, did as I had done, threw himself flat in the water toward the bank, aim was swept into the shal lows. Standing in the stream near its cilge he stretched his arms toward me. ' I retained the pitchfork handle, for it had been useful among tha bowlders. By wading some way in, the staff couhl be made to reach him, and I proposed his seizing it. "If you are sure," he I replied, "that, in case ot giving way, j you can maintain your grasp, then I J will certainly hold yon." I wailed in, 1 and stretched the staff to my compan ion. It was firmly grasped by both of as. Thus helped, though its onset was strong, I moved safely across the tor rent. All danger ended here. We after ward roamed sociably among the tor rents snd bowlders below the Cave of the Winds. The roeks were covered with organic slime which oonld not have been walked over with bare feet, but the felt shoes effectually prevented slip ping. We reached the cave and entered it, first by a wooden way carried qver the bowlders, and then alonjp* narrow ledge to the point eaten deepest into the shale. When the wind is from the south, the falling water, I am told, can be seen tranquilly from this spot; but, when we were there, a blinding hurri cane of spray was whirled against us. On the evening of the same day, I went behind the water on the Canada aide, which, I confess, struck me, after the experience of the morning, as an im posture. The Richmond l>url.

The duel waa arranged, after a fisti cuff tight in which McCarthy was knocked down, and McCarthy was the , challenging party.

The words " Are you ready ?" were slowly and distinctly uttere.l by Mr. Tabb, and responses came prompt ly and clearly from Mordecai and Mc- Carthy, " Reaily."

At the word "two" both fired, amino nearly together tu point of time that it oeemed us if only oue weapon had been discharged.

Powdered hair is again in fashion. Blonde and white are the favorite styles. Fancy jewelry is much worn on the street again, which is in very bad tAate.

Carious Story About a Hank. A curious incident occurred a few days since a short distance from Balti more, a local paper says: One of our well-known merchants had gone out 011 a visit to a friend, at whose house there was a bright little boy, and one day, to please the child, he manufactured n very large kite, and as the wind was strong enough, the kite wus raised at once. After it had gone up nearly half /fhnile, a large crowd of country people collected to admire it, as such a mag nificent toy had never Wen seen in that section before. While the spectators were admiring it, a very large hawk was seen to fly slowly out of a neighbor ing grove and go directly toward the kite. The hawk approached within n few feet of the strange looking object, and then circled about under it for per haps five minutes, when he flew just above it snd again circled aronnd several times. Suddenly he hovered directly over tho kite, and after looking at it in tently for a short time, darted down ward, and striking the pajicr, passed directly through the kite, coming out on the other side. After this strange experience, which no doubt puzzled the hawk vastly, he flew off a short distance for reflection, but still keeping the kite in view. Not being disposed to give it up so, he quickly returned to the charge, and this time fastened on the long string of rags that were used as a tail to thA kite, which he tore and scattered in the air in a savage manner. Finding, how ever, no resistance on the part ortne kite, he became disgusted or scared, and flew away toward the woods whence he came. the gentleman aaya that ' whenever the hawk mule an attack he would retreat a little, as if he expected the strangejbird was going to roturn the J assault. j The widow of the late Oen.

Hhe had lieen baptized, was under Christlau lufiurucca, and previous to this hetero doxy, had never given her good parent* a moment's anxiety. Her usive utter ance touched a retqtonaive chord within my own breast, for well did I remember gow gloriously the circus shone by thr light of other d*v* ; how the ring mas ter, iu a wrinkled dress coat seemed the most euviable of mortals, being ou speaking terms with all the celestial creatures who jumped over dags and through balloons ; how the clowu wa* the dearest, funniest of men ; how the athletes, in tights and spaugles, were my beau ideals of masculinity; and how La Bella Rose, with one foot upon her r native heath, otherwise a well-padded saddle, and the other pointed in (in direction of the sweet little chrrtiha that sat up aloft, was the most fascinating of her sex. lam |>eruaded that cir ewnea fill an aching void iu the universe. What children did before their iuveu- I tion I shudder to think, for circuses are to childhood what butter is to bread ; and whnt tho world did before the birth I of the showman is an almost equally frightful problem. Home are born to shows, others attain shows, aud yet again others have shows thrust upon them. Rartinm i* a born showman. With the majority of men and women life is a failure.

A Mysterious Noise W. A. M. reports that he recently hoard a succession of strange crackling noises out of doors at night ; aud had great difficulty in finding tho cause. The sounds came from some fallen walnut tree leaves, and he naturally exported to find that aome species ol liiM-ct caused the leaves to rustle. "At the—next sjsit where I examined, I closely watched the modus operandi and saw the dry, brown leave* gradually curling open, moving like little auto mata ; one, opening, would touch another, and that in turn rolled open, with the ]>eculiar rustling sound that hail at first attracted tnv attention. But there was no worm tliere. What then was the power thst carried on this general movement ? Upon meditating a little, the tmtli flashed upon me ; it was simply that Ihe day had lieen re markably warm for an April day, and the heat of the suu had warped the leaves, curling them up like a volnta ; but as the sun aet, the northeast wind had blown the elonds and moisture from the Atlantic, and, coming in con tact with the dry leaves, had caused them to uncurl. Thinking that some motion would accelerate their move ment, I stamped ujmn the ground, and immediately the whole garden seemed alive with motion. The occurrence seetnea of small account, hat it illus trate* in a perfectly natural way the force and effect* of variation* in tem perature." A despatch from Treks say* that G.

Gti the night before the execution Nixon's family visited him in prison. The sheriffs and keejiera instinctively withdrew, ami the condemned man and hia wife sat together by the stove in the main corridor of the prison. Nixon pressed hia wife'a right hand for a min ute or two but did not say anything, j Theu Mrs Nixon began crying bitterly, uml Nixon, as if to soothe away her grief, smoothed away her hair, which had fallen over her face. "Oh, Mike, it is so hard to leave you," said the wife. "It can't be helped," said Nixon, and then they kissed each other, ami talked in a low tone about their family. Then Mrs. Nixon said: " I cannot stay any longer, Mike; good-by." Anu Nixon, standing up, kissed hia wife for the last time, and she passed out of the prison into the yard in which the gal lows had been erected.

Tli benefit of manufacturing twtab liahment* to a town la pointadly illus trated in an incident meutional by Dr. Momo In-fore the Ht. Ixruia Farmers' dub. He said: "A few years ago, a gentleman having invented an improve ment in mowing machines, proposed to the citizens of Canton, Ohio, that they should loau him 110,000 to manufacture them at that place. They did it, and that one manufactory was the nucleus snmud which the following have gstb rred: Two immense agricultural im plement manufactories, one of plowa exclusively, one of Moves and hollow ware, oue of uajier, one of mower-knivee, one of sadtih-ry aud harness, two of furuiture, one of horse-rakee, one of farm-wagone, one of cultivators, one of wrought iron bridges, one of aoap, be sidee a large number of others, more or less extrusive. Those numbered are not small concerns, the machine inter est alone supporting 'J,BOO people. The town ha* trebled iu population, quad rupled in wealth, and the people, satisfl ' rd with the experiment, are still push tug forward in that direction. These facts were given in 1M67. If we bad the fact* lip to this date, a still more impor tant growth would doubtless be shown, IhM-ause it is like rolling a snow-ball— ' the larger the ball the more rapidly it accumulates. Ills Best Friend. • There arrived in Louisville, a few dsys ago, on foot all the way from Mis siseippi, a venerable sick man, who had trudged all the weary diatance thither to obtain hospital-treatment, and waa accompanied by a small brown dog. When told that he must give up his dog before be could go to the City Hospital, the poor old man tjok the dog in hie arm*, aud, with the tears running down his face, replied that the dog was the I>et friend he had in the world, and that he would ratlier die from want in the streets with his dog Tim, than live in comfort without him. Thia exhibi tion of affection waa irresistible, and Require Pat Jove*, the commissioner, gave him a permit to enter the hospital, aud to carry hia dog with him ; at toe name time giving him money to buy a muzzle, in order that the dog might enjoy the limit* of the hospital grounds.
