FARM, GARDEN AM) HOUSEHOLD. Farm Hints nnd Help. In-coming cows should bo treated with great caro. The dry foed will have ren dered them very liable to inflammatory diseases. Gnrget, milk fever, abortion, and such troub.es, affect woll fed cows more thnn others. The blood needs cooling by laxative food. One quart of oil cake meal, mixed with bran scalded, and given as a drink once a day, will be useful. No corn should bo given for several weeks before calving. Bran or middlings will bo more cooling and healthful, but if good hay is given, very little grain of any kind will be needed. Caution now will prevent trouble here after. Whon the calf is expected, the cow should be turned into a loose stall, or into a quiet stable alone. If cuts are found upon sharp shod horses, about the foot or pasterns, wash tun wounds witu warm soap and water, and then apply a pinch of salt, or n lit tle compound tincture of benzoin, which will cause them to heal rapidly. Neglect of this precaution may cause a quittor or some other trouble, which will break out by-and bye, whon the horso is needed for spring work. Sharp shod horses should not bo permitted to play together or with other animals. A kick from a playful horse may cause serious damage. Colts and yearlings should be tied in their stalls and taught proper discipline, Thry should be handled gontly, and fed well aud regularly. Give young stock of all kinds tue best of food. When rough, shreddy wool appears in tho fleeces, or the wool drops off in locks, the sheep are net healthy, or tho food has been too dry and heating. Stop tho com meal, and give some linseed oil cake meal; a few potatoes will be useful if roots are not to be had. Give salt frequently and freely. Keep nursing ewes by themselves, and give scalded bran or oat meal daily. Sugar beets, or potatoes, sliced and sprinkled with quart of middlings or bran, for each ewe, will produce abundant and rich milk. Keep lambs where they will have plenty of snusliiuo. Pick oil ticks by hand; this may be done very rapidly by using a pair of small, sharp pointed scis sors: part tue wool, and when a tick is found clip it in two. Sows may now be turned to the boar for pigs in June. Sows expected to pig soon should have warm pens, with cut straw or chaff for bedding. Rails fixed around the bottom of tho pens, six in dies above the floor, aud the same from the wall, will prevent the voung pigs from being crushed. In tho South pigs need no more shelter than a rough roof in a wood lot. There is no better place for pigs than a small piece of woods well f nnued, where they may run nnd make their own beds of leaves or earth. Straw beds, and especially a bed of ma nure, will causo irritation of the skiu, if not skin diseases, aud encourage para si tea. Ageicul turiat. The lee House. A neighbor came to 113 a few years biace, late in tho autumn, and said his wife and children wauted him to baild nu ice house, aud he should like to gratify them, but didn't like the idea of pecking through frozen ground in order to do it, and wauted to kuow if ha couldn't fjtore away enough ice in his b.u or shed and protect it so that it would last for one season, aud then he would dig ont a regular ice house. We told him that we had kept ice for our selves and neighbors for years in the hay of au old barn, and desired no bet tor place for keeping it. lie went home and partitioned an old shod into an ice house, which answered the purpose so well that tho " regular " ice house was never built. If no barn or shed room can be spared for tho storage of ice, then a cheap structure can be built on the surface of tho ground, t e size to correspond with the size of the family, twelve feet square and eight feet high being ample for a family of ten or a dozon, as it will contain a thousand c ibie foot of ice, or thirty tons. If no lvgard is had to the looks of the struc ture, it may as well bo covered with rough hemlock boards as with shingles, for all that is required of the roof is to keep out the sunshine and rain. The more circulation of air above the ice the bt-tter it will keep. Neither is there a ay necessity for double boarding the sides. Plank are better than boards for the sid ing, aud when plank are U3ed, posts aud stud3 are superfluous. Fooring, of course, is unnecessary, as sawdust is the best possible flooring, nnd should be strewed over the surfaco of the ground to the depth of five or six inches as a nonconductor of the heat of the earth. If the ice house is built near the dwell ing house, good taste demands that it should be shingled aud also sided with planed stuff so that it may be painted, and not be a disfigurement to the premises, but we prelor to store ice somewhere near the barnyard, so that it may be washed iu the watering trough of the cattle before being taken to the honse for use. Water for Com. Dr. Crafts, of Bkighamton, N. Y. said to the Vermont dairymen s asso ciation that cows prefer warm water to cold, and therefore oftfn pass by a stream of pure water and drink in pools of surface water. Mr. Hawley referred to the- ability of cows to sift out bad matter from their food, so that the same food affects tho milk of different cows differently, but there is no safety in feeding bad food or water. Rotten po tatoes aro bad for cows, tho putrefactive germs in them often remaining undevel oped until they come in contact with the air in the milk. Dr. Crafts said that water vliich is covered with green slime, frog spittle, is not stagnant, and that, as a general rule, it was safe to drink water iu which frogs live. Spring Costumes. The earliest hints of spring styles for dresses found in French fashion plates Eoint toward long Juive overdresses, abits, and Marguerite polonaises. One model is a plain black velvet dress, of which only the sleeves, sides, and the edge of the tkirt are visible, as the re mainder is covered with a Juive over dress of damask figured foulard of a .elioate shade, edged with braid, and worn with a nv)yen-age girdle low around the hips ; this girdle is of golden links, through whioli black velvet ribbon is passed. . Another costume has a myrtle grean velvet skirt, almost concealed by a Marguerite pelisse of lighter green Siciliennt, 'edged with braid and fringe. ; 't: : 1 Where abb . Thet ? A Texas editor asks : Father J mother; .-where is your boy tb-nigit ? "Thigh-sjiutgd, noble sou, around 'wh6mjclu8ter the fondest affections of your heart ? Where does he spend these long evenings ? Persistent inquiry at the billiard saloons, or some of the keno rooms, might discover the noble young man. Or he may be sitting in the varieties, with his feet cocked up, smoking one of his father's cigars, and looking like a little Charlie Ross. You can't miss him. GUERRILLA WARFARE. Jommhlas Abant ftlonby and hla Rxpl.lts In Virginia. Tho New York Times is publishing some stories of the war. In one article. "All About Guerrillas," it tells us something about Mosby : In his " Report of the Operations of the Army of the Shenandoah," Gen. Sheridan says : " During this campaign 1 was at times annoyed by guerrilla bands, the most formidable of which was under a partisan chief named Mosby, who made his hoadquarters east of tho Blue Ridge in the section of con u try about Upperville. I had constantly re fused to operato against these bands, be lieving them to be substantially a beno- nt to me, as tiioy prevented straggling, and kept my trains well closed up, anil discharged such other duties as would have required a provost guard of at least two regiments of cavalry." There was practical sense in this rea soning, adds tho Times, but thousands of Federal soldiers who campaigned un der Sheridan iu th. Shenpndoah must have learned with astonishment from this report that the operations of the dread ed Mosby were " substantially a bene fit " to our arms. For he was dreaded. His audacity went to the extent of reck lessness, nnd he nnd his followers soem ed to consider no risk too great by which they could nnnov our army, cut toft trains and detachments, and capture war material. If there had been among thern some fellow handy with the peu he might produce a volume that would vie with romance, while confined to the details of the adventures of tho guer rillns. I had a long conversation with two of these men who were paroled after Loe's surrender, and they assured me they had often donned blue overcoats and ridden along with our column in the nighttime, picking up information and watching for a chance to take off a prisoner. Very of ton, they said, one of their men was driving iu disguise in our supply trains. One of thorn said that he rode a mare which he valued beyoud price, and one night he hud her stabled in a barn near Lesburg, while ho slept in the house a friend's house. In the middle of the night he was awakened by the rattling of pebbles on his window. He sprang from his bed, and was half dressed when he heard the heavy tramp of feet upon the stairs. Surmising nt oneo that the Federal cavalry were on his track, he raised tho window, lot him self out, aud dropped a story and a half without injury, sped to the baru, led out his mare by the forelock, without saddle or bridle, mounted her, and rode off with a shower of bullets following mm Upon one occasion, an afternoon in tho last days of August, when our array had halted and got into position for the night near Jnriestowu, nnd while under the strictest orders to be ready to form line ana light a battle at a moment s notice, one of our soldiers was wounded by a guorri la, who deliberately rode up to wituin a rod of a hue of stacked arms, fired his carbine at a knot of men loung- mg about, and galloped off before t musket could be brought to bear upon him. Nobody had thought of taking him for any other than a stray cavalry man from one of Custer's reeimeuts, or an ordorlv from headquarters, until as tonished by his shot aud escape. It was about this time that Gen. Emory had o very narrow escaoa from capture by these marauders. His headunarter tents were being put up for the night, when a dozen horsemen rodo rapidly through the inclosure, discharging their carbines right and left, and disappeared before tho astonished officer in command of the headquarters' infantry could get his company under arms. The guerrillas took no prisoners and their shots hurt no one. I presume the whole was a piece of devil-may-care recklessness without any object except to" show oil. But had they Known that they were passing within a very few yards of where tho major general who oommauded one-third of this army was lyiug, no doubt they would have made a desperate effort to take hirn. Tho gen eral was much annoyed by the incident. and rated the captain soundly for his un readiness. " Why, hang it, sir, lie said, is this the way you guard my headquar ters? Here are a dozen of Mosbv's fol lows ridiug right over me; yes, sir, and for all that you could do they might easily have stolen my boots. It was reported about the same time one of the guerrillas was taken by our cavalry and brought to Gen. Crook, com manding the eighth corps, and that the general scolded his captors for taking him alive. It was quite well for this general's peace of mind that he could not know that in the following February ho wa - to be captured at Martiusburg by a bold dash of these audacious partisans, and hurried away to liichmond. Affairs in- Mexico. Mexico is once more seriouslv threat ened by a revolution. The presidential election occurs next winter, and the present incumbent, Lerdo de Tejada, is a candidate for reelection. General Porflrio Diaz, who, as chief justice "r president of the supreme court, was really vioe president of the republic, has entered tho Held against Lierdo. It significantly remarked that tho where abouts of Diaz are unknowu, but that the election of Lerdo "means war, Anotlier malcontent is Mnrquez, who, as one of the betrayers of Maximilian, has au unenviable reputation in Mexico, This man represents the church party, who oppose Lerdo's administration on ao count of the laws of his administration which separate church from state, make marriage a civil contract, and deprive re- ligious institutions of the right to hold property. JVlarquez proposes to lead revolution against the new candidate provided his party show any force ; and it is suggested that he may unite with the adherents oi .Diaz, who have no special grievance except that their lead er was defeated by Lierdo in the presi dential canvas of 1872. Altogether, the political outlook in Mexico is somewhat stormy. Moody and Sankey. The first appearance in New York of the revivalists, Moody and. Sankey, was before an audience larger than the metropolis ever witnessed before. Fully 7.000 persons were Bdated in the main hall. The overflow of those disappoint ed in obtaining entrance filled the small hall, which seats 1,000 persons, and probably 5,000 persms stood outside in the streets listening to tue singing.- As an illustration of how busy every oneis now in Washington,-Miss Grundy tells of a lady who-recently went into one of the largest dry (roods emporiums and asked for gloves. "I want," she said, " a pair of white kids and a pair . . , i i , . t i- i i oi uiacs. &iuh, uuu x want mom uuiuk, I am going to a wedding at twelve, funeral at three, and a reception to night. Handling Sitro-Gljeerlne, When the oil wells begau to play out," says a correspondent, torpedoing was resorted to as a means of keeping up the failing production, and in most in stances with success, although its effects were generally short lived. In the pre paration of these torpedoes the explo sive element used is nitro-glycerine, the force of which is well known to every body. The dangerous qualities of this compound rendered it an extremely un pleasant neighbor to have around, and consequently, after the discovery was' made that hundreds of pounds of it were daily boing transported tlirongh the hearts of cities and towns, the citi zens awoke to something like a sense of their danger, and laws were passed im posing heavy lines and imprisonment on those found guilty of carryingitthrongh or storing it in any inhabited locality, After these steps were taken the people fancied themsolves seenre against all dancer: but if they knew some of the facts which have recently come to the knowledge of your correspondent there would be something like consternation among thorn. Nitro-glycerine is carried by night in wagons with false bottoms, peddlers wagons, stored away in loads of hay, and even carried in trunks and valises as personal baggage. Of course those who undertake the work have got to be per fectly sober, cool headed, and ready for any emergency, and their wages are enormous. In . conversation with ' glycerine driver," a few days ago. learned a few incidents of his career at the business. In response to my inter rogation as to whether ho ever experi enced any fear, he said : "Of oourbo, we always do whon we first commence, or go on a route while we are green. Why, the first load ever took ont 1 wouldn t even pack or unload the wagon myself, and I strayed two miles away while the packing was being done. I mind one morning, after 1 had been two years at the business, aud had got so that I handled torpedoes almost as recklessly as you would pig iron, I was unloading a wagon near Millertown, and I dropped a torpedo, dropped it fully four feet, right onto the hard road. Was I scared f Well, mis ter, when I realized my escape, I was so weak that I sank down all in a heap, and 1 didu t get over it tuat day. Another incident which he related to me is tho following, which was told with every appearance of candor aud sin cerity : I was driving 150 pounds, packed in a false bottom," said the narrator, "from the Titusville factory to Potrolia. I was making my trips mostly at night, but 1 knew the roads well, and didn't antici pate nny trouble. On my second night out it was so dark that I couldn't see the horses at all, and I had been think ing of pul'ing up to some house and an choring over night, whe i suddenly I felt the off horse going down. I pulled on the reins and yelled at him, but he slipped down, the wheels went over, and the first I knew of what happened, there we were, horses, glycerine and all, lying at the bottom of a twenty-foot em bankment. Close? Yes, tolerable. I wouldn't caro to try it more than half a dozen times." Some drivers are not so fortunate, and more than one poor fellow has gone off on his long journey very suddenly by means of nitro glycerine. In 1872, a man named Clark, while going from Ti tusville to Enterprise with a load of nitro-glycerine, which had been poorly packed, was driving down p. steep hill, and some of the explosive leakod out of the box and got in the springs. There was an explosion, and horse, wagon and driver disappeared. The horse was found, or a part of him, some two hun dred feet from tho scene, the wagon dis appeared totally, and nothing but a piece of one of the trees was ever found. Of tho unfortunate dnvor no traco whatever was ever found. To Exhibitors at the Centeaniul. An order by the Centennial managers of Philadelphia prescribes the date be tween which will be the time for tho ex hibition of various products of the farm, garden, and dairy thus: Pomological prcdacts and vegetables. .May 10 Strawberries Juua 7 to 15 Eirly rummer vegetables Juno 20 to 24 Spring butter and ekee-e June i!0 to 21 Kaspberrics July 8 to 8 Honey July 8 to 8 Southern Pomological July 13 to 2(1 Melons August vti to 22 Pea hes September 4 to 0 Northern Pomological September 11 to 1C Autumn vegetables September 19 to 23 Cereals.

There will of course be exhibitors of much be sides in this line. The German Contribution. The entire contribution ef Germany to the centennial exhibition will arrive in Philadelphia by the end of February, Most prominent among the exhibits will be oil paintings and engravings of the highest order, all having passed inspec tion by tho first critical artists in the country; toys, for the manufacture of which Prussia is so famous; literature and science, musical instruments, watch es and clocks. Xhare will be also a large aud attractive display of minerals. steel and iron plates, chemicals, porce lain, furniture of superior quality, fab rics of wool, cotton, linen, silk and vel vet, kid gloves and leather. The wine growers of the Rhine will make a classi fied exhibit of their specialties. Work upon the German buildings, to be erect ed near memorial hall, is now well ad vanced. Raising' the Moneyr The Boston Traveller relates the fol lowing as an illustration of Winslow's skill: One morning last summer Win slow had a note of $50,000 to pay before the bank closed at two o'clock, and not $10 in his pocket, or the promise of a single dollar; but he raised the money, and with apparently very little trouble. Having a genuine note from a wealthy Boston capitalist, he made three copies, putting them into as many, different banks. An officer of one of these banks went to the maker of the genuine note, and asked him if he had given any such note. Being told that he had, and sup posing that they had that note, and not an imitation, the bank officers rested in content until they discovered their loss aiew.days ago. i ' ' '' i .i j. . . When a young man calls on a girl for the first time, and when the conversation lags, and the subject of the weather has been torn all to pieces, then it is that the photograph album steps in and fills up the gap that nothing else in the world could bridge. A Yaluable Work. j . ' The Chnthnniaii Histobt of the Uni ted States, from the discovery of the American Continent to the close of the First Century of American Independ ence. By James D. McOabe. Autbor of "A Manual of General History," Pathways to the Holy Land," etc., eto. There has long been a great and universally-felt want of a history of the United States suitable for general use. This want is now being supplied by the National Publishing Co., of Philadel phia, who have issued a handsome vol ume, styled "The Centennial History of the United States," by James D. Mo Oabo, a well-known historical writer. This work will, undoubtedly, take rank as the standard history of the United States. It is no drymass'of details no bombastio effort to inflame the national pride, but is a clear, vivid and brilliant narrative of the events of our history, from the discovery of the American Con tinent down to the present time. We most heartily commend this book to our readers. It gives a very interest ing account of the Indians of North America, from the time of the coming of tho white men. The voyage of Colum bus, the explorations of the different nations of Europe and the wanderings of the Spaniards iu search of gold and immortal youth, are told with graphic power. Every step of onr colonial history is traced with patient fidelity, and the sources of those noble, and we trust, enduring institutions which have mode onr country freo and great, ore Bhown with remarkable clearness. Tho causes of our great struggle for independence are told with a logical force and ability unsurpassed in any work of the day. men follows a clear and succinct account of the formation of the Federal Constitution; the establishment of the Union; the course of affairs until the breaking ont of the second war with England; and a full nnd comprehensive account of that war and its results. The events of our career from the close of that contest to the commencement of the civil war, follow in their order. The history of the civil war is related with intense vigor, and with a strict fidelity to truth; and the work closes with an ao count of the course of affairs since the end of that great conflict. Tho author writes throughout with the calmness and impartiality of a historian, and pleads the cause of no party or section. He states facts, points out the lessons which they teach, and appealing to neither pas sion nor political feeling, trusts to the good sense of his eountrymen to sustain his views. In order to render the work complete in every respect, the author has added to it an appendix, giving an account of the approaohiug interna tional Centennial exhibition. It is comprised in one large, handsome octavo volume of 925 pages, and con tains 442 engravings on steel and wood of historical personages and scenes. The price is so low that all can afford to purchase a copy, and eaoh subscriber is presented with a superb lithographic engraving of the Centennial exhibition buildings and grounds. The book is sold by subscription only, nnd the pub lishers want agents in every county. See advertisement in another column. ' Extraordinary Enterprise.

Journal tells thus " I don't intend to cry a bit at mother's funeral if I don't have a new dress and black veil," said a little girl here on the death of her mother, and she kept her word until she got the deBired articles, and then a flood of grief burst forth that lasted unrestrained until the last solemn rites were performed. The other story appears in the Peters burg (Va.) Index and reads : Last Fri day the residence of Mr. E. Helfrich, in Chesterfield county, took fire from the burning soot of the chimney, wnicu fell upon the roof and ignited the shin gles. Mr. Helfrich's little daughter, aged about ten years, and her mother, together with some smaller children, were the only occupants of the house itt the time. The little girl bravely mount ed to the roof, and the mother passed up to her a bucket of water, by which means, after frequent replenishing, she succeeded in extinguishing the flames. Some men working in a field in sight of the honse discovered the flames and came to the rescue as quickly as possi ble, but the little heroine had entirely subdued the fire before their arrival, and was sitting on tho roof of the honse weeping the effect, doubtless, of the reaotion of feeling after the excitement. " No, Georgie," she said, in response to his question, " it is not true that a string of new belt buckles in a shop window would make any .woman lose a train ;". tnt slm .rt Med. musinfirly. " sometiiued uLe hubLl luvo to iuu u little." The lady managers of the Boston Lancers' leap year party played a riub joke on the entire company by inviting them to drink champagne, whioh was found to be molasses and water charged with gas. Riohmond (Va.) Whia anneals to the President of the United States to pardon and discharge from prison the fifty odd Southerners who now languish in the dungeons of Albany, suffering unjust penalties cre ated by unconstitutional laws." It says farther that " these poor prisoners are dying by slow torture, and while mercy pleads for it, justice demands their re lease and restoration to society and their families." Metzler k Co., tho most extensive dealers in reed instruments in London, prononnce the Mason k Hamlin the finest reed instrument in tho world." Augustus L Tamplin and Chevalier Lemmens. the famous harmonium play ers, are using these organs at their Lon don concerts. These are fine compliments for our fa mous American makers, upon which we congratulate them, adding that they are thoroughly deserved. New York Phil harmonic Journal. American Genius. Moody nnd Sankcy. The great revivalists, Mosfts. Moody and Sankev. who nlAntriflni .laid old Knnlanrl with tfieir oloqnenoe and enthnniaiim, are fair samples of Americnn genius. Springing from among the common people, their nympfUbien are aiive to tne wants of the whole people, and herein lies the secret of their great euccot-o. Those who eeolc to be popular must study and be familiar with tho wants of the masses, aud prove loyal thereto. To this fact we may trace the grand huoopsh in business, as well as in re ligions nndortakings. which many Americans have Achieved. Strikingly illustrative of there engnostioiis is that great establishment, located at Buffalo, N. Y., and known as the World's Dispensary-' a most appropriate name, in (looil, for that vast institution, within whose walls, are manufactured remedios which are in demand in every quarter of the globe, and at which a corps of distingnished phyeioiaus and surgeons, under the personal direction of Dr. Pierce, are constantly administering to tho needsof thousands of Bnfferers everywhere, and whose success in the treatment of all forms of chronio ailments has become so well known that there is scarcely a hamlet in the land in which run name is not familiar. Its proprietor, says tne ueraia ana uorciuignt, or Detroit, "is a man of the people, writes for them, and to them tenders his eminent professional ser vices." His advertisements are earnest ex hortations. Like the great revivalists, his entbnviasm is multiplied by the unparalleled success of his enterprise, as well as by tho efficacy of his remedies in curing disease. The people believe iu him and his remedies, be cause, as the New York Tribune aavs, " he sympathizes with them iu all their afflictions, efforts and attainments." Hence, Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery is to-day more largely employed as a blood and liver medi cine, and also as a cough remedv, than any other remedial agent in tho world. His Fa vorite Prescription, he does not recommend as a "jnro-all," as is so often donebv compound ers of worthless, humbug nostrums, but for all diseases and weaknesses peculiar to women it has proved itself so much of a specific that it now oi.joys great popularity and universal confidence. Dr. Tierce's Tleasant Purgative l eiiois. -scarcely larger man miiBtara Eeea, have proved so acrreeable and reliable as i cathartic that they are rapidly taking the place of the large, naniseons pills heretofore so much in use ; while his Compound Extract of Smart- Weed is a favorable remedy for colic, cramps, summer complaint, diarrhea, dysentery, cholera, and cholera morbus, and also as a lini ment. Of Dr. Sage's Catarrh llomedy, and Dr. Picrco's Nasal Douc-ho, lit'le need be said, as they are known everywhere as the srreatest specilics for catarrh and "cold in the head" over given to the public. And betides this measure of success, Dr. Pierce seems likely to acuieve an great renown as an author as he lias as a pnyician. aw Common sense .Medi cal Adviser, a book of about 903 pages, which he sella a? the unparalleled low mice of SI. 5(1. has already been sold to the extent of exhaust ing two editions, amounting ta forty thousand copies. Tho secret of Dr. Pierce's success, as woll as that of the great revivalists, and tcorcB of other Americans, who by their genius have aavancea step by step rrom obscurity to arilu ence and distinction, consists iu treating tl:i people wUh consideration, sympathy, candor and honesty. No man, who holies to attain ciihor wealth or distinction, cau afford to deal uufurly with the world or be inrliffereut to the wants and best interests of humanity.

CONHr.nPTIVES, TAKE NOTICE. Every moment of delay makes yaur eaae more hope. less, and much depends on the judleloua choice of a remedy. The amount of testimony In favor of Dr. Schenck's Pulraonio Syr ip, ai a core for Consumption, far exceeds all that can be brought to support the pre teusions of any ether medicine. See Dr. Schenck's Almanac, containing the certificates cf many peraous of the highest respectability, who have been restored to health, after being pronounced incurable by physicians of acknowledged ability. Schenck'a Pulmonic Syrup alone has cured many, as these evidences will show ; bnt the cure Is often promoted by the employment of two other remedios which Dr. Schenck provides for tbe pur pose. These additional remedies are Schenck'a Bea Weed Tonic and Mandrake Pills. By the timely use of these Medicines, according to directions, Dr. Schenck certifies that most any case of Consumption may be cured. Dr. Echenck is professionally at hts principal office.
