'A farm, Garden and Household. Good anil Bad Seasons. A young friend of mine went to Illi nois some years ngo. lie bought a farm for a few dollars per acre ; put in forty or fifty acres of whent the first Tear, and got thirty bushels per acre and sold it for &1.G0 per bushel. "And that nrop ruined me, ' he said. "How so ?" I asked. "I have been trying to do the same thing ever since, and this year scarcely got my seed back." The truth is, there have always been good seasons and bad seasons, and will bo until the end of time. He is the wise man who understands this, and acts accordingly. I should not like to go to sea with a captain who expected nothing but fair weather. I hove little respect for any man who hopes to get good crops with out labor. I do not think such a man would succeed any better in a shop, or store, or factory. But be this as it may, he certainly cannot make a good farmer until this kind of nonsense is driven out of him. I do not believe the climate is changing, or that the seasons are any more unfavorable than formerly. I question if western New York ever pro duced a better crop of peaches than this year. And I can imagine horticul tural writsrs thirty years hence, in the twentieth century, telling what magnifi cent crops of peaches we used to grow here when they were young men. They will forget or say nothing about the many years when we have scarcely a peach. Wet springs and dry summers, rust and insects, weedy land and poor wheat, floods and hail, milk-fever and floating curds, foot-rot in sheep oud sickly lambs, colic in horses and hog-cholera one or all will pay the farmer a visit, nnd urge him to think, and work, and plan. If anything can make a man of any one it is farming. It cannot be said, however, that farmers de not work hard enough. The great trouble is that we undertake to do too much. But I think this fact is now fully admitted by all intelligent farmers, and I feel confi dent that a great improvement in our agriculture will soon be apparent. The weeds, if nothing else, will compel us to cultivate the ground more thoroughly. J. Harris, in American Agriculturist. An Ey Way with a Vicious Hone. A beautiful and high-spirited horse would never allow a shoe to be put on his feet or any person to handle his feet, without a resort to every species of power and means to control him. At one time he was nearly crippled by be ing put in the Btocks ; he was afterward thrown down and fettered ; at another time one of our most experienced horse shoers was unable to manage him by the aid of as many hands as could ap proach. In an attempt to shoe this horse recently, he resisted all efforts, kicked aside everything but an anvil, and came near killing himself with that, and finally was brought back to his stable unshod. This was his only defect ; in all other respects he is gen tle, and perfectly docile, and especially ... i t..i ii i i . m iiiiriiess. aim mis ueieei was just on the eve of consigning him to the plow, where he might work barefoot, when, by mere accident, an officer in our ser vice, lately returned from Mexico, was passing, and being made acquainted with the difficulty, applied a complete remedy by the following simple process: He took a cord about the size of a com mon bedcord, put it in the mouth of the Horse lilio a hit, and tied it tightly on the animal's head, passing his left ear unuer tiio Ktring, not painfully tight, out ugui enougn to Keep tlie car down. and tho cord in its place. This done. he patted the horse gently on the side ot his head, and commanded him to follow : mid instantly the horse obeved. perfectly subdued, and as gentle and obedient as a well-trained dog ; suffering his feet to be lifted with entire impun ity, acting in all respects like and old stager. That simple string thus tied made him as docile and obedient as any one could desire. The gentleman who thus furnished this exceedingly simple means of subduing a very dangerous propensity, intimated that it is practiced m Mexico and South America in the management of wild horses. Be this as it may, he deserves the thanks of all owners of suah horses, and especially the thanks of those whose business it may be to shoe or groom the animal. Commercial Advertiser. Fruit Tree Borers. Let not our readers forget that much of the weakening of onr fruit-trees is owing to absolute starvation caused by the workings of stem borers. The sup ply of the sap upward is cut off by ev ery hole which they make, and is just so much put in the way of the tree get ting all the food it needs. It is no use to manure trees and keep our eye on all other cultural details, if these rascals are permitted to continue their depre dations. This is one of the best sea sons of the year to look after and de stroy them. The eggs laid during the summer are now developed to a consid erable " worm," and it is working its way downward between the bark and wood, or even into the wood, so as to get comfortable quarters for the winter. Their presence can be readily ascer tained by noting a little fresh-looking matter like sawdust near the tree at the surface of the ground, which the lar vae eject in their boring course. To destroy them get a trowel and dig away a little from the stem, so as to find the opening of the channel made by the in sect, and then thrust down a piece of stiff wire upon it, which will generally end its day. To many this looks like a considerable job ; but a smart hand can get through with several hundred trees a day in this search, as the fresh dust affords an unerring clue to the direct whereabouts of the marauder. This is not only a good season to look after this nest on this account ; but, as it is the cider time, the owner is generally about the orchard now, and can oversee the work, and aid it by his advice or personal assistance. A good metaphor sometimes gives a very effective idea. Describing tie plague of grasshoppers in Iowa, an exchange says : "At some points be tween Sibley and Worthington, the air seems filled with the flying plagues, and their white wings present the appear ance of a brisk snow storm." There should be some way of fighting and ex tinguishing these little invaders, as locusts are arrested to some extent in the East. Don Carlos is described by a corre spondent, who met him lately, as a tall, slender man, nearly six feel; nigh. He wears a thick beard, and his first ap pearance make a very agreeable im pression, which is increased by his lively manner and almost feminine mile. The will of a Kentuckian, made be fore his marriage and giving all his property to the lady who became his wife, has been successfully contested by his legal heirs, it being held that the marriuge operated as a revocation, and that the widow is entitled to only pne-tlurd, The Chinese In California, The Chinaman has taken deeper root on the Pacific coast than is generally known to the people east of the Rocky Mountains, lie has evidently come to stay, and he demonstrates his ability to Btny by making himself indispensable in almost every occupation from the highest to the lowest, in spite of the universal prejudice against him. He can live comfortably on little, and per forms equal labor for one-third the wages demanded by Americans and Europeans. He excels the laborer of all other races in those employments wherein attention, patience, and manual dexterity are of more importance than knowledge and judgment. Asa manip ulator of machinery he is unequalled, and hence enjoys the preference over the white operative in the woolen and cotton mills of California. The Chinese make the shoes worn by aimost every one on the Pacific coast. The first Chi naman tried his hand at cigar-making in San Francisco in 1860, and now there are nearly six thousand, of them who monopolize this industry exclusively. They operate and repair sewing-machines of every description; arid there are now 2,100 Chinese sewing-machine operatives in San Francisco, taking the place of sewing-girls, who are almost unknown in that city. As .launderers, domestio servants, farmers, gardeners, barbers, and laborers, they pervade every employment on the Western coast with such efficiency and at such wages as olten hopelessly to defy white competition. But the wonderful aptitude of this strange people is best shown by the ra pidity with which their numbers have increased in some occupations since 1870. According to the census of that year there were 290 Chinese shoemakers i T i . j 1 n e.m in oan xtuucibco : now lucre are o, iui. The butchers have increased from li to 100 ; the tailors have multiplied from 8 to 128, and the cigar-makers have rolled up from 1,657 to 5,620. In all employ ments wherein dexterity and patience are the prime requisites the (Jhinaman seems to gain ground inevitably. All that has been said about the degradation and the criminal propensi ties oi the lower class of Uhinese is mainly correct, and it is no matter for surprise that the people of California . i 1 1 i . i . i i . i eiiuuiu juuk wiui jeaiousiy upon ineir invasion of the industry of the state. But the Chinese merchants of San Francisco are very far superior to the Chinaman of the more numerous class in California. They are affable, oblig ing, self-contained, and shrewd. With an aggregate capital of about $25,000, 000 they control almost the entire Chinese trade of the country, and as this trade increases they must continue to grow in wealth and influence. Chinese immigration is not a pleasant subiect of coulemplution for the average American laborer, and the question has generally been settled in this part of the country by making things too hot for the tastes of the few lJacinc (Jeles- tials who have been imported to dis place white labor. But it is evident that the Chinese feel uncomfortably crowd ed at home, and that the European races have henceforth a new rival to encounter in settling the unoccupied lands of the Pacific const and of Central and South America. Nor is it iinprob able that the Southern negroes will in a few years have to contend against the man of peculiar ways and bland smile tor predomnance in the cotton-fields. The question of supplying the place of the negro with the (Jhinaman was wide ly discussed at the bouth some years ago ; and when the Southern Pacific Railroad shall be completed the way will be open for a uracticul trial of the experiment. Whether the negro is ever displaced by tho Chinese or not, it would still be an easy matter to double the cotton crop by accessions of Chinese labor. Railroad Building in Peru, Noting the recent return of Mr. Jesse D. Wetmore of San Francisco, the Alia of that city says : " Mr. Wetmore came to California in '49, and was at one time well-known in this city as a street contractor. During the last twelve vears he has been con nected with raifroad operations in Chili and Peru, and was the first to work the extensive guano mines in Mexillones, Bolivia. He built and established the first Protestant church in the city of Santiago, utiiu, about eight years ago. In June, 1871, ho undertook the work of constructing the eastern division of the Lima and Oroya railroad in Peru, The work of grading was commenced at the little Indian town of Oroya, which takes its name from the swinging bridge erected across a rapid torrent of the eastern water-shed of the Andes. Here the altitude is 12,200 feet above the level of the sea. The line going west toward the Pacifio rapidly ascends the Andes to an altitude of over 15,000 feet, where the summit tunnel is located, In all the country embracing the in terior basins of the Andean chain, no firewood is obtained, and lumber for the most ordinary purposes is very costly. Poles are brought on the backs of mules from the eastern base of the Cordilleras, a distance of over twenty nve leagues, ana boards are packed in short pieces across the great suow ridge from the racitic Coast. J; or light pack' iug, great numbers of llamas are found serviceable and superior to asses or mules, inasmuch as they can be subsist ed on the coarse grasses that grow on the elevated pampas, while the other beasts of burden are sustained by the alfaefa raised iu the Tarma and other valleys, whence cost of transportation is considerable. Notwithstanding the dmculties, the cold weather, the ex treme rarity of the atmosphere, the scarcity of all articles necessary in the preparation of railroad work, and the indolent character of the native Insa Indian laborer, the work is now accom plished, and the road-bed is ready to receive the ties and rails as soon as the western division is made to connect, so that the iron and wood may be brought up an the hnisbed track. Mr. Wetmore, wife, and daughter have been living recently at isca, occuDvincr an old church near the mim- mit ci the Andes, at an altitude higher than that of Mont Wane. The ladies seem to have endured the extraorinary hardship imposed by the climate of such an elevated region with remark able fortitude, and have come down from the snows and the clouds with buoyant spirits and good health. They were obliged to cross altitudes of over 16,500 feet, and have traveled on several occasions twelve and fifteen leagues a day over great ridges and folds of these Titan mountains, and all the time being- above the sea from 10.000 to 16,000 feet. Miss Wetmore has brought with her a collection of valuable archaeological specimens, relics of the ancient life that once was diffused throughout the desolate mountain val leys and ridges. Among them are skulls of the Aymara Indians, pottery from old Insa graves, &o. Fine wool llama skins and specimens of minerals silver, lime, &o.. are also brought Lwith her." Trailing the Muscles. Wilfcie Collins and the anti-muscular School have been waging A crusade against boat-racing and similar pas times, in which school-boys and under graduates proverbially take delight. Ihey urge that the severe exertion and preliminary training necessary in such sports undermine the constitutions of young men, and not only shorten their lives, but sometimes result in immedi ately fatal consequences, They claim the Unanimous endorsement of the medical profession as supporting their theory, but it is evident doctors dis agree on this as on other points, as the Lancet, the great medical authority in London, recently contained an article opposing their assertions. The Lancet says: "To excel in such exercises, a regular system of training is required, involv ing temperance if not abstemiousness in all things, and constant practice ; and it is pleasant to find, from the large body of evidence collected by Dr. Mor gan in his interesting work entitled "University Oars," that, in the opinion of all, or almost all who have pursued rowing with mote ardor than as a mere amusement, no injurious effects can be attributed to it, provided only that the men have been properly trained. The information he has obtained shows that no less than twelve of the sixteen men who rowed in the first inter-university race in 1829 are still living ; that the competitors in this, as well as in the succeeding races, have had as good an average -of life as any corresponding number oi englishmen who do not row, and, lastly, that while an extremely small number of men have suffered any injury from rowing, many acknowledge the benehts they have received from it in health, strength, and spirits. No doubt there are some men who are whol ly unfit to enter into any competition of the kind. The strain of all exertion falls primarily on the heart and lungs, and in a secondary degree on the brain. As soon as the muscles contract, the mechanism of the valves in the veins occasions a quicker current and a larger volume of blood to enter the right heart, which labors to propel its contents through the capillaries of the lungs. These become surcharged with blood, and, for a few moments, difficulty of breathing is experienced. Soon, how ever, the vigorous movements of respi ration introduce the due amount of oxygen, the left heart is filled, the bal ance between the venous and arterial circulation is restored, and the 'second wind' is obtained. From this time forth the well-trained man is at ease, and his work is only limited by his nervous and muscular power. A sound constitutional youth, with no special proclivity to dis ease, who begins moderately and works steadily, gaining strength in his muscles and heart, and capacity in his lungs, need fear no danger in a boat race. For him, rowing would prove a wholesome exercise. But it is easy to see what must be the effect of such conditions to a man with unsound lungs or heart. It matters little which is at fault ; the re sult is nearly the same. In either case, whether tho heart be feeble, or the lungs, from original conformation or disease, be inadequate to transmit the volume of blood forced into them by a vigorous heart, the first active move ments gorge the light cardiac cavities, and, as these cannot discharge their contents, the entire venous system feels the effects, and lividity of the surface and general distress are the immediate consequences consequences that, if the effort be persisted in, may easily lead to cardiac dilatation and its at tendant evils, or, in an extreme case, to rupture of the walls of the heart, or to cerebro hemorrhage ; or, on the other hand, should the lungs be very serious ly affected, and the heart possess fair energy, to pulmonary hemorrhage." Work and Charity. Lord Derby, in presiding at the re cent annual public examination of the Manchester Schools for the Deaf and Dumb, said that only those who are practically conversant with what are called charitable institutions can realize the immense difficulty of making sure that you are really doing more good than harm. Nature says to most of us, " Work or you will starve." Humanity cannot bear to witness starvation or suffering, and wo will do what we can to remit or to lighten the penalty when it has been incurred : but it is not al ways easy to do that without lessening the stimulus to exertion, and so indi rectly creating more suffering than you relieve. Everywhere we are met with the old paradox the old difficulty how those that deserve help least often want it most ; yet how difficult it is to get that help to those that want it most without causing reasonable and actual discouragement to others who have struggled hard to avoid wanting it, and who have succeeded, with infinite trouble, in just holding their own. It is a difficulty that meets us in various shapes. Even in families, what is com moner than a father or mother, or pos sibly two or three brothers or sisters, beggared in the attempt perhaps an unsuccessful attempt to rescue some one the black sheep of the family from the consequences of his own folly ? Lord Derby then went on to point out that, in the institution in which he was then speaking, there seemed to be al most freedom from the risk of which he had been speaking the risk of charity abused. The Difference. Meet a fellow when the thermometer is up among the nineties, and you see him mopping the sweat from his face, digging the dust from his eyes, his paper collar wilted, his linen coat streak ed with Bweat, and he exclaims : " Hot 1 Why, 1 never saw such weather 1" He tells you. how the rubber in his sus- Eenders has melted and run together ; ow he could wring pints of water from his clothing ; how he has lost five pounds of flesh in ten days ; how the sun has crisped his boots and ruined his eyesight, and he starts off with the remark : " Never saw anything like it !" Now meet a lady, and what do you see ? Clean white dress, dainty collar, jaunty tie, hair nicely combed, eyes bright and smiling, no dust everything as tidy and orderly as if the weather was Oc tober. She doesn't hurry a bit, stops now and then right in the sun, cuts the air with her parasol as if she had no use for it, and always manages to just escape the furious cloud of dust coming up or down the street. There are no inquiries about the state of the ther mometer, no longing looks at soda water signs and ice wagons, and no ap plication of the handkerchief. She does not hurry, does not dash for the shade of a six-foot awning and hang to the spot waiting for a cloud to pass over tlje sun, and when she takes a car it seems to matter little whether all the windows are up or whether they are down. How on earth do they manage it? A Connecticut man has sent to a friend in Baltimore a postal card containing 1(51( words, all legible, The Extermination of the Buffalo. It will afford every well-balanced mind some satisfaction to learn that the men who have been doing their best to exterminate the buffalo from our West ern plains have had their enthusiasm dashed by a decided fall in the price of hides. It is estimated that at least 200,000 buffaloes were slaughtered last year, princirally for their skins alone. The herds have been driven by the ex tension of railroads into a comparatively restricted district, where gaags of bor der marksmen can get them in a corner and butcher them without mercy. Enor mous droves of these animals, so useful to our frontier population and to Indian tribes as a means of sustenance, have thus been penned and shot down. While the United States Government has been paying enormous prices for beef to be issued to our Indian pensioners, tens of thousands of buffalo carcasseshave been rotting on the plains, slaughtered in order that these irregular butchers might make ft profit by taking their Bkins. A year ago the price of buffalo hides in the West ranged from four to five dollars for a cow skin, and from six 17- Tlf L 1 - to seven dollars for a bull-skin. Now a skin that would have brought five dollars a year and a half ago will scarcely sell for a dollar and a half. The glut of buffalo hides has become so great that they have been exported in large quan tities to Europe. Almost every day in the streets of New York we see long strings of drays loaded down with the hides of these animals. In France and Belgium army contractors are buying them up at the present low rates in large quantities for the purpose of mak ing them into all kinds of military equipments, such as straps, cords, har ness, and the like. At the present time the average mice in Chicaero for buffalo l -t I, , it nicies ranges irom one dollar and a halt to two dollars and a half. Deducting commissions and expenses, a buffalo hunter realizes about one dollar for each skin that he sells. If the selling value could be reduced a great deal more it would be a good thing for the country. When the next Congress assembles it could not do anything which would meet with more popular approbation than enacting a law for the effectual preservation of the buffalo. End of the Cholera Season at Xashville. A dispatch from Nashville says : '"The Robertson Association, which has done much toward the relief of the indigent sick, met recently and declared that as the cholera had disappeared from Nashville its mission had been fulfilled. It recommended that all its members return to their respective avocations, to the end that not only they but other citizens might afford employment to those in need of it. Since June 2-1 it has extended aid to five hundred and forty-eight families in the city, of which 413 were colored and 135 white, and to over 100 families out Bide of it. Judge Ferris, of the Probate Court, dismissed six physicians em ployed to wait upon the poor of the country attacked with cholera, their services being no longer necessary. It is expected that the Mayor will dis charge all physicians employed by he city, in consequence of the abatement of the disease, which is considered rr the physicians to be about at an end with very few new cases appearing. "Uusiness has been resumed to a great extent, and it is anticipated that everything will be running as smoothly as if we had never been visited by the prevailing epidemic. A good many country people who have been alarmed at the appearance of the disease in their respective localities are now coming into the city, thereby hoping to escape its ravages. Keports from various low lands in Middle Tennessee are dis couraging. Out of a negro population of two hundred in New Bethel, two miles south of Nashville, one hundred are left. This year will show an unusually large immigration of farmers and others to the rich lands of Kansas and Colorado, on the Kansas Pacifio road. Indeed, since the climate has been pro nounced beneficial for invalids, the call for information in regard to the route, is so great as to keep several clerks constantly employed in the Broadway office, N. Y., mailing pamphlets ex pressly prepared for the purpose. PAIN1 PAIN ! I PAIN I ! WHERB IS THY RELIEVER t Readers, yon will find it in that Favorite Home ueraeay PERRY DAVIS' PAIX-KILLER.

Com. - . . - Suggestions for Summer. It il of great importance that the system should be in a vigorous condition when the hot weather commences. The effects of a high temperature upon an enfeebled frame are always more or less disastrous. The loss ot substance and the declen sion of rervous power, occasioned by excessive heat, can only be compensated by the aclive, healthful, and regular exorcise of all tho bodily functions by which the waste of nature Is replen ished and the vital energies renewed. The great utility (f Hostotter's Stomach Bitters as a means of toning, invigorating aud regulating the organs of the body, is universally acknowledged. As a tonic it stimulates the flagging appetite and ac celerates digestion; as a corrective it neutralizes acidity of the stomach and relieves flatulency; as an alterative and mild aperient It regulates the liver and tho bowels; as au anodyne it promotes tranfuil sleep; as a wholesome stimulant it im parts firmness and elasticity to the relaxed and trembling nerves, and as a blood depnrent it puri fies the vitol stream. The value of such a specific to the weak and debilitated is beyond all estlmat". To invalids wilted down by the sultry heat ol mid summer, it is as refreshing and vitalizing as the cool night dew to the sun-scorched flowers. Com posed of vegetablo elements only, with a basis of pure diffusive stimulant, it is safe aud palatable as well as medicinal.

In theii treatment, a purgative, exerting a pow. erful influence upon these various or. gans, is essentially necessary. Thei? is no cathartic for the purpose equal Dr. J. Walker's Vinegar Bitters, as they will speedily remove tho dark colored viscid matter with which tho bowels are loaded, at the same time stimulating the secretions ot the liver, and generally restoring the healthy functions of tho digestive organs. 1' ortity the body affainst aiseasp by purifying all its fluids with Vinegar Bitters.
