FARM, GARDEN AND HOUSEHOLD. Damniei by Nelttliborsj Fowls, Thoro nre few things which make more troublo between neighbors tlmn the in cursions of pigeons, chickens, or some other creatures iuto grounds where they are destructive and not desirable. Of course people who have lived side by side by side together, nre much in the condition of married people who have to give and take, ns tho saying is, if they expect to get along comfortably. Much annoyance is often endured iu this way, and very often to the extent of one party feeling that ho has to do all tho taking, whilo the giving all comes from tho other sido. In all annoyances of this kind it re quires a good deal of cool command of one's self to get along well, and much moy bo dono by the aggrieved party doing something himself to keep out in truders, when that something does not cost too much time and labor to do. At tempts at coercion, or anything that may creato bad feelings nro not wise as n rule, and not till all kinder methods fail. It is well, however, for all to understand what is tho right of parties iu these cases as tho law understands it. There is a general impression that tho keeper of a drove of fowls or a flock of pigeons has no responsibility in regard to keeping these annoyances from his neighbors. If ho has a good four-railed fence, such as would keep a horse or a cow from breaking through, lie thiuks in many crises that he is relieved from all other caro as to what other things may go ; and he contends that it is the neighbor who is to keep out tho visitors if their presence be undesirable to him. But this ii) not so. AVe have now be fore in the report of a case sent to court iu order to test this very thing. Ono neighbor had n taste for llowers and ' prided himself considerably on his gar den. Tho other neighbor loved fowls, aud kept a numerous (Jock of them. The fowls loved flowers also, and made fre quent visits to the neighbor's beds. The fowl owner was repeatedly appealed to ; but ho always fell back on what ho con sidered his rights which were, ho thought, that tho neighbor who objected to the chickens should put up a fence suflicient to keep the- fowls out. But tho decision was adverse to any sup posed right, and he had to pay a good sum for llowers destroyed, tims charged iu driving chickens out, and in watch ing the beds, and a largo number of similar items, besides the costs of tho wholo suit. This was a civil suit far damages only; but the case could be made to assume a still more serious as pect in a charge of keeping a nuisance, and in various ways a man might come to grief who indulged the pastime of permitting his feathered flocks to graze on another's pasture. Exposing Manure. Some of your correspondents advocate ho fall spreading of manure for good crops the following year. My experience does not convince me of the value of this practice. Late in the autumn of 1808 I spread fourteen ox-loads of barn manure on about one-half an acre of sod ground, intending to plow it in before the ground froze; but the sudden freez ing of the ground prevented me, and it laid spread on the surface all winter. I have heard it said by some writers that barn manure does not evaporate ammonia in cold as in warm weather; but in De cemboi, as I passed near this piece of land, I noticed a very strong scent of barn manure on tho air; and if there is ftllV Virtllft 111 mniUnniftin mnnnra a lnKn portion of it was lost in the atmosphere tUnt- 11. .1 wli.lu iuiui, in tutj result proved 1116 following year. Tho next spring I covered tho adjoining piece of land, of t i. A 1 1 uuuuii uvu acres, wnicu was oiu grounu. and which bore a crop of potatoes the year before, with about the same quantity of green manure from the barn cellar, tho whole being plowed in in the spring, both old and new ground, aud planted to corn that on the old gronnd with green manure being good, and that of the fall spreading on the sod ground being exceedingly poor. Thi3 I have ever sinco considered a fair test, and I have never considered it good husbandry to expose barn manure containing vola tile ammonia to the action of the atmos phere any moro thau to sun aud rain, the plausiblo reasoning of agricultural writers to tho contrary notwithstanding. New England Farmer. Domestic Recipes. To Dry Coun. Hace the corn in a fitovo oven without removing the husk. Let it heat through, then strip and cut from tho cob and dry in the sun or in the stove oven, as is most con venient. This is said to make a good article oft8 kind. Tomato Pie. Take fully ripe toma toes, scald and peel the skin off, then cut in slices and lay in a shallow dish, sprin klo with sugar, add a little butter, cover with 'a crust, and bake till the crust is dono. Then turn the crust on a plate, crust downward, and spread over the tomatoes tho white of an egg beaten with sugar. Set in the oven till the egg stiffens. This is more wholesome thau lemou pie aud almost as good. Coitx Cakes. Grate half a dozen ears of green corn, stir iu a cup of milk, add flour with which yeast powder, in the proportion of two tcaspoonfula to tho quart, has been sifted, until the whole is a thick batter. Add two or three eggs well beaten and a pinch of suit. Try as batter cakes, or bake in gem pams in a quick oven. A pleasant breakfast dish. t'ednr for lien I.lce. A breeder of poultry writes: Every ispriug I procure a quantity of cedar boughs, and scatter them plentifully in and around the hen house. This is all that is necessary, as the odor of the cedar keeps away lice. This remedy is cheap, simple, and effective, and is well worth trying by all who have hens to care for. Grume.

Poetry of the Chinese. On my flute I plated a song for the loves, but the loves did not understand me. For the snow descended upon the earth liko a cloud of butterflies. "But my songs sowu under tho snows, like golden grains, will be roses when the springtime comes. . And lovers iu the sunshine will gather my songs in bloom to make nosegays of them. "And I will raise my flute toward heaven, and direct my song to the sages who are there. Aud, like young maids ou a holiday, the sages will rejoice, and dance upon the cloudu." Carrying up bricks for masons is a hod way of getting a living, FLESH OR FOWL 1 A Child Born wlih the llend ofn Cat find (he Feet of a Chicken. The Joplin (Mo.) Bulletin says: Na turo, when in a festive mood, porforms many odd freaks, but tho most wonder ful of which we have ever heard was the birth of a strange monstrosity near Jop lin. The child, if child it could be call ed, weighed about eight pounds, with a head whoso forehead was well developed, but whose mouth, noso, eyes, ears and general countenance were the exact counterpart of a cat's, though tho eyes from their dazzling brilliancy looked much liko a serpent's. The body, arms and hands were well formed and natural, and so were the legs as far down as tho knees. From the knees they bore an almost exact resemblance to the leg of a chicken the foot was as near a chicken's foot as can be imagined and tho infant would contract its toes just as a chicken would. Its head and neck wero covered with a growth of line black hair, tho body and limbs looked like a chicken when plucked of its feathers ; its cries wero those of a cat. It is said that this unfortunate circum stance was brought about iu this wise: Five or six months ago, whilo tho parents resided iu another State, the lady was watching a fight between a cat aud a rooster in an adjoining yard. Two boya, aged ten and twelvo years, respectively, were watching tho contest with great in terest. Finally tho cat caught the chicken by the neck and instantly dis patched him ; the older boy grabbed a light nx and uplifting it rushed toward tho younger saying: Your cat killed my rooster, aud I'll kill you." The younger brother, in attempting to es cape, stumbled and fell. At this stage of the proceedings the lady fell to the floor in a swoon, but only recovered to pas from one spasm to another, which continued for several hours, and tho re sult was tho birth of this monstrosity. Tho parents wished the child put out "of the way by violent means, but, after a deal of persuasion and the promise of a large sum of money, the doctor was al lowed to retain it, provided he would never make its parentage known, or ex hibit for two years. Their reculiarities. Greeley and Bennett, when they wero Ann street editors, wero both tall aud slender, but their personal appearance was widely different. Their oflioes were near, but they approached from differ ent directions. Greeley generally came in from Broadway, while Bennett's beat was from tho Nassau street corner. Greeley, though slightly stooping, look ed people clearly in tho face, while Ben nett, who was four inches taller, stood bolt upright, but as he walktfd he fixed his eyes downward, as though to con ceal the obliquity of -vision which was almost a deformity. Bennett walked stillly and carried a cane. Greeley would have felt as awkward with the latter as he would with a sword or a pitchfork. Bennett dressed neatly ; Greeley was a sloven. Bennett wrote a legible hand (he once was a teacher), while Greeley's caligraphy was abominable As au edi tor Bennett's forte was to dictate, while Greeley's was to write. The Herald's best articles were done by the stuff ; the IVibune's thunderbolts bore the stamp of its chief. Both of these men were of abstemious habits, and although Ben nett was often apologist for vice, his life was, as regards mere morality, as pure as Greeley's. His influence was for sale in a professional manner, just like that of a lawyer. In this point he differed from Greeley. Each of these eccentric editors courted successfully aud became married men. Few have less time for love matters, or less grace to win woman's favor, but the courso of " true love " in each caso led them smoothly to the wedding day. To bring the parallel to a closo, they diod the same year and are buried not far apart iu tho same cemetery. Oood Bread. As I was one day dining with a friend, I said to him: "Your wife makes good Dreau. " l snouictn t nave Kept her, if sue diUu t, was tno ready response, Now it would have been most too bad to have dismissed one who had already be come his wife, for no other f iult than that she failed to make good bread. And yet, it must be confessed, it is a se rious fault; and eveiy young man in pursuit of a wife would do well to make it a requisite that she bo skilled in the art of bread making. Three times day, during all his married life, will he want on his tablo this "staff of life.' And it is an essential thing that this in dispensable article of cookery be well made. Tho pies aud tho cakes are a secondary consideration. These n.ay ne uispensea witn, imt not tne cluilv bread." Every mother owes it to her daughters that she well instructs them in this department of household duties Bettor that they know less of music aud French, and dress and fashion, than be deficient here. If a man has a wife who daily furnishes Lis table with bread well made and well baked, so far let him be thankful. If such a man comes to his table morose and fault finding, I will not say that ho deserves that his bread should bo dough, for no man doserves that ; but I will say that he deserves no bread at all. Pork and potatoes and beans, without any bread at all, are good cnougu lor mm. Watering Flowers. It is a common belief that flowers ought not to be watered under a hot sun, But few people can give a good reason for the belief. The Providence Journal explains the matter, and has some sen siblo remarks on the wholo subject Seeing the other day a very inte lligent person sprinkling (not watering) a bed oi flowers at ten o clock in the mornincr, under a light sun, we were moved then and now to say that not only was the time and labor lost, but iu case of deli cate plants with surfaco roots, actual injury might havo been done. The theorv of waterinsr plants is this: The roots are to be thoroughly wetted without leaving any standing water; this well done will answer the purpose for several days where the plants are in the ground. It should be done on cloudy days or at evtming. ifie mere sprink ling oi water on tue suriuce does no good ; the water does not get down deep enough, aud besides, iu a hot sun the evaporation cools the ground so as to threaten, if not injure, the more sensi tive plants. What is best is to mulch plants with the short grass cut from the lawn, or dry dust from the street will answer; givo bo much water and such protectiou that there shall be uo quick evaporation; Zino miners at Greenfield, Mo., re cently came upou a bowlder of lead, nearly pure, and estimated to weigh nearly 30,000 pounds. Iu consequence of the discovery nearly all the zinc miners iu ' the neighborhood havo left work to begiu prospecting for lead ore, and land has greatly increased in price. THE MOUSD-RUILDERS. gome Very Tnngh Ktorlra of Aliened DIrcot. erica In Michigan. The editor of the Marshall f Michigan) Statesman, who has boen lately examin ing some ancient mounds in the Grand Traverse region, gives tho following ac count of his discoveries: The tumuli were located on a sandy plateau, between tho bay and an inland lake. They were not placed with refer ence to order, nor wero thoy uniform in style. Four large mounds and two- small ones near by could bo easily traced. The largo ones had been par tially opened by some ono, but who it was no ono in tho party knew. From tho growth of vegetation it was plain that nearly a quarter of a century had passed since tho effort to discover tho secret had boen made. Tho pine growth ou tho mounds indicated a still greater an tiquity thau tho mound in tho village. At least fivo centuries ago the mounds were built. We assisted in removing the earth, and were fortunuto enough to be the first one to come upon iho re mains. Two bodies rested in one gravo. Both had fallen over, but from tho posi tion of the few remaining bones it wai videut that they had sat sido by sido while the years rolled on. The first skull taken out was that of a female, we udged. At last wo found tho remaining skull. It was iu a remnrkablo state of preservation. Tho teeth wero perfect, and the cranium had not separated at tho sutures, ilie aw had fullou oil, but wo recovered if from its resting placo deep er iu tho earth. No ornaments wero found. Charcoal was fouud over tho heads. A few of the lavger bones nlone roniaiued, but they wero easily broken and crumbled beneath a moderate pres miro. It has been shown that tho cus tom was to bury the personal ornaments and war implements either with the body or in a separate mouud near by. Hoping to find traces of pottery, etc., wo carefully, investigated all hillocks near, but were unsuccessful. Wo preserved the most perfect skulls. From the plates in Foster's work wo are able to decide that they are not tho skulls of Indians. Tho larger one is that of a male, aud from the pizo of tho leg bones we conclude that he must have been a person of large stature. A pecu liarity of tho mound-builders is the un usual prominence of tho nasal bone. These skulls show that this bono must havo becu more than an inch iu length, standing straight out from under the brow, like the beak of a bird. The lo cality iu which we found this skull is such a one as Foster describes as being a favorite place of burial with the race. Iu fact, there aro many reasons for be lieving these to be the remains of mound-builders, which our lack of space prevents us from mentioning. There are few, if any, perfect skulls of mound builders in existence. Prior to the tire of Chicago some dozen or more were field by scientists and in "museums. By that fire several wero destroyed. From all that we cau learu ono of these in our possession is the finest yet discovered, aud if its genuineness can be established (as nearly as scientists are able to) it is a valuable relic. If this article comes un der the eyos of parties interested in such matters who desire further lutormauon, we will cheerfully give it. About three years ago a farmer s boy, while plowing iu a field not far from the eastern shore of tho bay, turned up a stone of mysterious shape and peculiar appearance. The stoae was abont four inches long, three inches wide, aud three-quarters of au inch thick. The boy took the stone home aud washed tho earth from it. Tho stone showed indi cations of having been polished, aud upon one of tho broad surfaces bore characters of an uuknowu alphabet, evi dently. The boy's father gave tho sin gular relic to a geutloman in Traverse City, who was disposed to regard tho matter as au attempt to perpetrate a practical joke at his expense, lluceutly a gentleman was calling ou Judge liams dell, who owns a farm about six miles from where the singular stono was fouud. The judge knew nothing of the matter referred to abovo. Iu the courso of conversation he remarkod that ho had just found a remarkable stone, which seemed to bo iuscribed with cabalistic signs. The goutlemau addressed natur ally niaunested a desire to see the stone, aud was astonished to find it almost a counterpart of the ono in his possession, It was an unexpected and uudemabio confirmation of the authenticity of tho tablet m his collection. 1 ho characters resomblo Greek letters somewhat, but are, as yet, a subject of study among several urelnoologists, who havo beeu consulted. They may, ultimately, throw some degree of light upon the mysteri ous subject of the origiu of American races. . Au Imperial Gourmet. A writer says : It is not singular that the imperious Ciesar should havo been infected with the sensuonsiiebs of his age, and proved himself au epicuro, albeit one of elegant and daiuty man- ners. Curtius says of the Rome of Cio- sar s day : ".No sort of luxury flourish ed so much as the coarsest of all the luxury of the table. The whole villa ar rangements and the whole villa life had ultimate reference to dining. Not only was tho cook a graduate iu gastronomy, but the master himself ofteu acted as the instructor of his cooks. Tho circum stance of the guest taking au emetic after a banquet to avoid the consequences of the varied fare set before him no louger creatod surprise." The same au thor has reproduced the bill of faro pro vided at a feast given by Mucius Lentil lus Niger, at which Giosar assisted "Bofore the diuuer proper came sea- hedgehogs, fresh oysters (as many as the guests wished), large mussels, sphondili, field-hares with asparagus, fattened fowls, oyster and mussel pasties, black aud white sea-acorns, sphoudili again, glycimarides, sea nettles, becaucoos, roe- ribs, boar's ribs, fowls dressed with flour, becaficoes, purple shell-fish of two sorts.

Executions are at their best simply terrible irtTairs, but when they are at tended with accident or done by bung ling officers there is something fright fully horrible nbv.ut them. That of the negro Green Henry at Columbus, Miss., was ono of the latter. It is thus do scrilwd : Tho capo of tho black robo was drawn forward over the doomed man's head at twenty minutes past twelve o'clock, noon. (Quickly the ft hen It and his at tendant stepped f.tom tho platform ; a deputy jerked tho lever that supported tho B'iutlbld from tho fastenings, uud gave the iloor of tho scaffold a kick. Au unearthly groau arose from tho thousands of ut groes who thronged tho adjacent walls and vacant places. lho scallold fell witli an awful sound: Green Henry dangled an instaut in tho fur, and then fell full length on tho ground beneath the balcony of tho jail. Everybody was horrified ; the sheriff c nild hardly move. A surgeon felt the pulse of the fallen man and said ho was alive. The colored deputy and an as sistant raised Henry, carrying him back to tho balcony, aud removed the black crape from his face. His brow was cov ered with perspiration, though he did not appear frightened. lie was alive and perfectly conscious, and continued to murmur : " Jesus, save me I There was a slight abrasion of his neck, and he was spitting blood. At this point a telegram camo from Gov. Ames, whom Col. Meek and others had been impor tuning for Green Henry's life. It said : "I cannot interfere J show this to Mr. Meek and others." By this time the knot had been re tied, and Henry was assisted to rise, nis feet pinioned, ho advanced as well as ho could to the center of tho plat form. As the sheriff adjusted the noose, Henry said: "Don't choke me." The sheriff looseued tho knot, and Henry asked: "Got it tied right?" "Yes," said the sheriff, aud he asked a doctor if it was not right. The doctor directed the knot to bo placed further to tho rear of the ear, which was done. The sheriff stepped back, the deputy touched the lever, and Green Henry swung iuto the air at thirty-eight min utes past twelve o'clock. A thrill of horror ran tluough the multitude, and a number of negro women fainted. Tho body after the drop was convulsed sov oral times; the shoulders shrugged, the feet wero drawu up. The neck was broken, the skin of the throat was cut, and a small stream of blood trickled down his breast. The drop was four and a half feet. After six minutes a doc tor felt Henry's pulse. He still lived. Ho hung fourteen miuutes, and then, at eight minutes to one o'clock, the doctor said he was dead. Fur a Hunt. A droll story comes from the city of Marseilles, 1 rnuce. The hero is a gen tleman well known both there and in Paris. Ou his property near Marseilles lie once had rabbits, which tho innumer able poachers of the south have extermi nated, lhero is now a sincere, though uncultivated admiration for field sports in .t rance. Tins gentleman was quite ashamed to think that he could not offer eveu rabbit shooting to a friend ou his estates, liut tho remedy was sample the empty warrens could bo restocked. Orders to this effect he sent lrom Taris, and a great quantity oi coneys were turned dowu. Tho season of tho chaoo opened two or three day? since, and a goodlv show of gnus M. led out to harrass his game. Girt with horns, probably, aud furnished with embroid ered gamebags, tho party approached the scene of action. To their mingled horror and delight, the rabbits sallied forth full gallop, greeting their execU' tioners with joy, aud ran up their gaiter- ed legs. Never was there such a wel come : lops and half-lops, .Dutch and tVngora, bounded to meet the nportsmen tumbling ono across another iu delight. Tho fact is that the garde-chasse had bought tame rabbits, which ho had beeu used to feed in that very spot. Life at Mecca. A wealthy Arabian merchant has fur nished a German journal some interest ing information about Mecca. The gran sheriff, ho savs, is richer than his mas ter, tho Sultan ; he speaks French, and has French dinhes at his table, and eats on the finest chiua, but never uses a knife, fork or spoon.

Life iu Moeea during tho pilgrim season when there are about 100.0U0 pilgrims in the town, is much more expeusivo than ut other times ; beef is 8.1. a pound, and bread is 1 d. a pound. The streets are lighted up with petroleum, aud the ex pense of lighting is borne, not by the municipality (which, however, provides tho lanterns), but by each householder, The streets are all paved, and many of tho houses are seven stories high. There is a post-ofiice iu the town, which sends letters ouco a day to the horbor of Died- dah. Letters aro brought to tho houses to which they aro addressed, and it is customary to give tho postman a piastre (ad.) for his trouble.
