A LEG EN OF WILLIAM PKXX.
Borne of us duwu ou tin Dvluvarw
are preparing to cvlulirato in Novem
ber tlio anuiveraary of tlie arrival ol'
William Pcun, and the iliriiinir of bia
treaty with tbo luiiiann. Tbai teaty
ileaerviMi to bo cvlubratAid, fur under it
William trouued over tbree million
iierea of laud out of tho aavngui, in ex
cbaiiga for a toiiilo of biiudred dollara'
worth of hittubulii, )lag tobacco and
tenponny naile. That waa tbo begin
ning ofinr present Indiau policy. We
carry on tbe nmno noblo nyeU-in yot
I have boon burninbing up my anti
quarian Htudics for tbo annivemary,
and ainoiifr other liniixs i nave ruHtir
ructcd a legend of William, which may
bo valuablo never mind where I dug
it up. Hero it in:
coon alter Januinif, l enu ia aaia to
liavo inapirtnl a tcudur paHsion in the
breiwt of a beautiful Indian maiden,
and for aoiue) time it waa considered
probable that tbo two miht bo joined
Uufothcr in matrimony i but Una waa
not to bo, and tbe rcaaon why it wbh
not to be ia explained in the following
couveraation, which oeourrod between
the lovers one evening while they went
aitting together upon tbe banks of tbe
river. Hie maiilcu nam to uim: -
(I)eareHt I hinir tn bavevou become
at one of our people, uud 1 want you
now to lot mo auorn you witu eur-
ringa, and to fuxlun this ring to your
now, so thut you may apicar as noble
as tbe other braves." . .
'F.xenso mo, darling," bo said. "1
daren't wear jcwcly. Theyearly mcet-
in won t allow it.
"But you will como to our council
fire to-night, dear, will you not, and
join with tbo chief and warriors in
dancing aliout our captive, who will
be tied to thestnko? 1 know you will
come."
'Well, if it makes no difference to
i'on, I believe I won't. 1 don't danco;
t's agin tbo dlscinlino."
"Ah, then I will tell you what you
shall do. You shall it by the great
tree and beat tho war drum, and nuiko
tbo floroe mnsio of buttle. Yon can
surely do that?" i - ,
"Upon the whole, I really don't
think 1 can. ' Yon see, I'm down on
tho fierce music of battle. I'm opposed
to niiisio of any kind, and particularly
to that which is hammered out of a
war drum. No, I'll have to beg off."
"But, Rt leant, you will go with mo
to the lodge of the medicine limn and
see him perform his wonderful feats of
magicr
"I'm afraid I'll havo to contradict
you again, my love. Our folks havo
testified ngiu going to places of amuse
ment. I'd be disciplined sure as Into,
if 1 was to go, Can't do il, swect.nny
how you fix it." ,
"Too bad I too bad! Hut you will
not object, I know, to letting me toy
with your trutsus, and fix tiicut into
such a crest as our braves wear proudly
upon their heads J This you cannot
rcfiiso inc." ,
"Now soe bore, uiy dear, do bo rea
sonable. You know 1 cau l let yon do
that. You certainly must know that
I ain't allowed to take off .my hut.
Why ita absurd." . i..i, . ,,,.. .,
"1 do Rot underslaiul the Ways uf
your people, lint I am willing to sub
mit to you if 1 know that yoa Tore me.
You do lovo me, William, do you not T
.Swear that you love me. Hwear by
yon moon no, the moos is not out
swear by yon stars that you will never
cease to love mo."
"I'm afraid I'll havo to gvt our hook
of discipline and read it to you.' When
you've perused It a rouple of times
mayne you u nwicmmrt that 1 never
swear; 1 afllnn." , , . .
Then sho arose, looked at him a mo
ment with invfTuble acorn and fled into
tho trackless forest: so that match
was out off, and William Pcun was left
disconsolate. This k as much of the
legend as 1 bavo scared up thus far.
If It seems to interest antiquarians
maybe I ran excavate tbo rest of it
it Ailelrr.

The cost of these animals upon their

never put n hard instrument into the

Leompross below. If choked, get upon
all lours and cough, l or light burns,
dip the part in cold water; if the skin
is destroyed, cover with varnish.
Smother a lire with carpets, etc. ; wa

tbe danger. Before passing through

stoop low, hut if carbon is suspected,
walk erect. Suck poison wounds, nn

wound, or, better, cut out the part
without delay. Hold the wounded
part us long as can be borno to a hot
eonl or end of a Cigar. In case of
poisoning, excite vomiting by tickling
tho throat, or by water and mustard.
For acid poisons, give acids ; in case
of opium poisoning, give strong coffee
and keep moving. If in water, float
on the back, with tho nose and mouth
projecting. For upoploxv, rolso the

A letter from London, giving an ac
count of tho czar's visit speaks of the
Knglish woman us seen at ono of the
friet given in his honor. Tho writer
is visiting a relative in tho so culled
middlo class who ia a large wholesale
importer, but being in business ia out
of the charmed circle of tho aristocracy.
Sho says:
Wo had excellent seats aud could see
all that was going on. The people
around mo appeared totully oblivious
of each other, they had eyes and cars
only lor royalty and nobility. As
group after group entered aud took
their places, t boy announced their title
and scanned their toilets, noticing the
smallest miiiuthrand commenting upon
it. 1 saw how deeply rooted was Ihe
feeling of ensto in the Knglish heart.
They actually looked upon princes,
dukes nnd duchesses as belonging to a
superior race to themselves. This was
not so npproiit with the men, although
it showed in them too, but it was un
disguised in tbo women, and in the
young girls partook of a species of sub
dued ecstacy.
1 looked ut tha lords and ladies crit
ically, perhnps with a curbing eyo,
comparing them with tho cluss I was
among, and tho latter did not suffer in
my estimation by so doing. Kni.li
women havo not Hie graces of our
women in adorning themselves, but
tho upper class come much nearer it
tlinn those below them in tho social
scale. Thcro were among them many
handsome, elegant women, and others
some dowager duchesses who look
ed liko our buekstor women. Tlie
Princess of Wules 1 should havo taken
for an American. Tho Duchess of Ed
inhurg is not pretty, but looks good
natio-'j t hough willful. 1 should think
sho might bo pouty. Sho does not
wear her clothes as though she was
used to them. They all bnd low necked
dresses such low necks that I declare
to you, when thoy were seated, their
heuds appeared to bo tho onlv nart ol
their person that were dressed. Iu
this respect the middle cluss were far
more decent.
When the lust drawing room was
held i went with tlio rest of the ploui-
ans to see tho show. Tbo show of
carriages and people on thoir way to
ii i mean, i nore was a line ol them
stretching in the direction of the palace,
each with elegantly dressed occupants,
sitting bolt upright, with their heads
elaborately decorated, and their gar
ments spread out ovor tho seats that
they might not get crumpled. Ono,
two, nearly three hours went by, and
some of them were there still, tbo ve
hicles moving up a few paces as ono
reached tho palaeo door, utqiositcd its
load and passed on.
Occupying tha sidewulks, and as
near the carriages as they could get,
were motley group amusing them
selves by commontmg upon them.
Tho dress and appearance of each was
criticised without respect to person. I
saw not a few cheeks flush and palo
under tho ordeal, notwithstanding the
assumption ol aristocratic indifference.
When one Indy was particularly ad
mired somo gamin would call out, "My
eyes, Rill, como and soe this rum
un," nnd they would stretch forward
and stare the occupant of tho vehicle
in the fucc, uttering their admiration
in terms more expressive tban refined.
Their riisapprova was equally ont
spokon. In one ease where they ap
(icarod to havo taken them a disliko
to a lady, they informed her that she
was wrinkled, and jeered hor coachman
and flunkies. Most of those who stop
jitd the way looked quietly and laugh
ing at the remarks of the irrepressi
bles, which were not ill natnredly mado
but you can imagine how intenselv dis
agreeable it was to the victims. 1 have
heard a crowd gathered about a church
iu New Y'ork, where thcro was an
awning up and the carjiet spread for a
orioai party, remark: upon them, but
it was done in subdued tone ; the po
lico would havo permitted nothing
more, but hero sieech was aa free us
air. An Knglish crowd has no respect
ior women.
Ono would suppose that at the draw
ing-room ol ljuccu Victoria, elderly
women who wished to pay their rc
8iectB to the sovereign might be per-
iiiiiteii totiosu w nu incirnecKSOoverea.
Not so. All who present themselves,
from the youngest to the oldest, must
como in court costume, and court cos
tuuiu permits only decollete toilotlc.
Last year the court chamberlain turned
back a lady who appeared in n square
nocked dress; it was not according to
court toilet tu and she could not be ad
mitted. One who has seen the Princess Met
ternich doac-ribe. her as ugly and ex
tremely thin and angular, notwith
standing which she has no scruples in
baring hor neck and arm to an extent
licyoud oven tho demands of fashion,
this being one of the privileges of her
order.- It is told of her that having:
a costly dress made, the pattern watt
found to be scant, anil tho material
could not be matched in all Europe.
What wa to be doner The modiste
hesitatingly suggested "If mewlamo la,
princess could only go w ithout sleeve."
"Without sleeves? Certainly, they are
of no consequence," was the reply.
Tho next evening the princess appeard

supported and suspended by gold bands

J fur. Uoivriiru s reciiio for arresting
the fermentation of cider at any point
is as follows : "Put the new cider into
clean casks or barrels, and allow it to
ferment Irom ono to three weeks, ac
cording as the weather is cool or warm.
When it has attained to lively ferment
ation, add to every gallon of cider I tb
of white sugar, and let tho whole fer
ment again until it possesses nearly
the brisk pleasant tasto which it is de
stmhlo should be permanent- Pourout
a quart of tho cider and mix with it 1
oz. of sulpbito ol lime for every gallon
tbo cask contains.' Stir It until it is
thoroughly mixed, and pour the emul
sion into tbe liquid. Agitate the con
tents ol the cask thoroughly lor a lew
moments, then let it rest that the cider
n,y settle. Fermentation will be ar
rested at once, and will not lie resumed.
It may lie bottled In the course of a
lew weeks, or it may be allowed to re
main in the case and used on draught.
If bottled, it will become a sparkling
cider of surpassing excellency." '
FALL XIANIRINd.
No mutter how susceptible manure
is to fermentation no matter whether
it is fresh, heated up strongly, well
rotted or an old compost if it is spread
out thinly on the field, as fermentation
is speedily checked, just as w hen n
moss of lighted coals is sciittcred over
the ground, the glow ceases, tho com
bustion doclinos, and oven In the hot
test summer day tho tiro is soon ex
tinguished. If this spreading is done
in tho cool or autumn, and a gentle
rain follows, all tbo elements of the
manure that can suffer loss tho am
monia, iKjtash, etc. dissolve and sink
into the soil. Rut they cannot go tar
down unless wo hnvo manured a grav
el bed or sand pit. On laud ht tor a
farmer to handlo, whether a natural
loam or sand or clay, subdued to a
proiicr texture, tho descent of fertil
izing matter is arrested, as alrcady
mentionod, by tbo beautiful chemistr
of soil absnrldion, tho slowly-dcsccni
ing water is filtered by tho soil of;
nearly all it took from the manure,
and the real feeding qualities of tho
top-dressing are distributed uniformly
throughout the surface soil in a way
no tillage can begin to Imitate. Loss
is reduced to its minimum, and
tho application is as perfect in style as
in cost. If, on the contrary, tho ma
nure is ipread out in hot weather, and
lies exposed some days to dry winds,
the ammonia it contains in the form
of carbonate will be carried off into
the atmosphere ; but this loss is not so
great as is often supposed. The quan
tity ol volatile ammonia that can he
got out of stahlo manure by this ex
posure is certainly no greater than ex
ists in it, and tbo analyses of Voelcker,
n oltt and myself show that it
amounts to but two to six parts in ten

town, or city, or within reach of such
by railroad, the irrowine ot poultry and
oggs is vory profitable, and tbe demand
increases with the supply, so that thoro
is no danger of over stocking the mar

this i so small that it is not missed
from olhor employment, but is rather

A H01II-1IAUI HOBSt POWER. ,
The Vermont Farmer gives a des
cription of a horse power for churning,
mado by a Cornwall dairyman out ol a
worn out mowing much i no. The churn
used ia a crank churn. Directions for
using are as follows :
lake off one driving wheel, and in
placo of churning fix iion firm timbers
the mowing machine, witb its remain
ing driving whoel uppermost. Upon
this driving wheel a lover about ten
foot long is fastened with bolts ; and to
this lever the horse is attached, and as
he walks in a circle around the machine,
propels its gearing. The pole of tho
mowing machine, fastened by bolts to
tho same whoel that formerly gave the
vibratory motion to tbo cuttcrbar,now
extends horizontally along the ground,
and on ita end outside tho circle of the
horse's walk is placed a wheel upon
which tho rope belt runs, connecting
With a similar pulley on tho end of tho
Sanborn chum. Hitch the horse to
tho lever, aud Ihe mat bine churns.
Let us review this matter, because
tho matter is important, and see what
change are to lie mado : First, one
drive.wheel off; secorred, tipped up on
edge and braced so as to bo firm ; third,
a lever bolted to tlie drive-wheel;
fourth, a horizontal revolving bar buv
infr on ita end a pulley-wheel ; fifth, a
pulley-wheel on the churn ; sixth, n
nqie-belt from one pally to tlio other;
seventh, nil will see that the horizontal
revolving bar over which tbe horse
steps must be fastened near its end to
keep it in place post or bed-piece
firmly fixed ran be adjuned ; eighth,
fasten your chum ; ninth, watch your
churn and take off your horse as oou
as tbo butter begins to come.

There havo been many cases of dip

has not been prevalent enough so fur
to warrant tho fear that it will bcooino

tfldle.- Dr. Peters writua to tho New
nk Tribune that, anuuiff the poor,
bad air sntl food are the most aetlvo
causes of mortality from this terrible
malady. 'illrU stifL" he ndds'il will
only loo often i-ingle out and kill its
victims among Iho children of the rich,
cleanly niid 'judicious' : Dr. Peter
recommends chhniite of potash as the
best remedy tir dipthoris. Here is
what he says of il : "It should be given
in One way Only dry upon the tongue,
pure, not mixed with sugar and not Iu
solution. By administering it in
this wny It dissolves slowly in tho
mouth and gradually -and efficiently
conies in contuct with all. tho diseased
parts of the throat.-- It is slightly dis
agreeable at first ; but tbe youngest
child soon becomes accustomed to it.
Jt takes awuy the suiiposod necessity
for forced locul npplicutions to tho
throat, and if the little patient bo
taught to open its mouth widely, with
out straining, and to draw in its brcnlh
deeply at tho sumo' timo, the curtain
of the paluto will be drawn up, and tho
whole bnck part of the throat. down
to tho windpipo, will be exposed to
viow, without tho use of liny harsher
means to obtain a view of tho purls
involved by the disorder. This treat

two, or more days ; sometimes not un

courage and poiscvcrancc will almost
certainly be rewarded with success ;
certainly four or five times out of six."
People cannot bo too careful iu re
gard to dipthcria. It bus been wisely
suggested that a hospital should bo
founded exclusively for diptherelic
patients, like the smallpox hospitals.
No disease is more difficult to gunrd
against after it has oneo entered a
household. ISut where people live com
fortably and cleanly, slight precautions
are sufficient to keep it away entirely.
Very oor people, who livo in un
healthy neighborhoods, are iu nioro
danger. Dipthcria has often swept
away whole families in tenement
houses. Wc do not wish to he accused
of "croaking," hut nearly everybody
wo meet appears to have a cold in Ins
head nnd a sore throat, and it is just
as well for peoplo to know that dip
thcria is prevalent...
Drains oi Men and Animals. At
tho recent meeting of the British As
sociation, tbo Dean of Clonfcrt, Dr.
Uynie, mado a praiseworthy attempt
to trace to the anterior, middle and
iostcrior portions of tho brain-hemis-jiheres
or cerebrum, the various men
tal faculties which we aeo sucessively
developed in those lower animals most
nearly akin to man. He pointed out
that in tbe rabbit, dog, npo, and man.
certain portions of the brain are rela
tively ot larger development as wo
pass from tbe first to the last, nnd that
accompanying this development wo
hnvo the development ot new physical
power, in tha rodents and rumi
nants there is first perceptible tho
power ol thinking ol a series ot con
nected acts. In tho enrnivora thoro
is jmwer of design, and in the anthro
poid ape a sense of general principles.
Cases were cited to support these prop
ositious, and it was suggested, in ac
cordance with the corresponding ana
tomical arrangements, that tho anterior
lobes of tbe Cerebrum belong to tbo
act ui iniiiKiiig oi single orijocts, ol
sense ; those of the middlo lobe to tho
act of thinking of such objects with a
scuso of their succession ; and those of
the pisterior lobe to tlio act of think
ing of the co-cxistcnio or succession of
them as a general principle.
