FARM, WARDEN AND HOUSEHOLD Colin In tlsram. iJuf' i 0rsW. an accomplished MA c),nfJ i yptcrtnary surgeon, occupies a churin the MaaRncliMmlta Agricultural ooiioge, nnd ho has been lecturing in v ermont, whore n great deal of intercut uas been awakened by him in regard to veterinary subjects. Here ia what, tu one of his lectures, he had to wiy cou--oertimg colio in the horse The most common kind of colio in Horses is known as wind colio. This anaes from fermentation of tlio f-.fod in the stomaoh instead of it henithy diges- jinj a hor8e is bought a tired and is fed immediately, and fills his stonmoh, tuore may Hot be sufficient gastric juir. to perform its office. The food will then torment. Soon the liorso will bloat ; we breathing becomes hard, with froth ing at the mouth. This may not be con founded with the hard breathing in Una fever, since in the latter there is no bloating. The passage of the tstoinwh and bowels becomes clogged with masses W indigested food, the gas arising frortt the fermentation cannot pass on of the stomaoh, which become distended, and presses the diaphragm forward so that the lungs cannot expand, the breath be comes short, and the rapid breatliinffW.ll shortly induce frothing. If the trouble teaches this stigo the horse will rarely live more than an hour. In this disease time is of the greatest value, As soon s you see your horse is bloating give something to stop the fermentation, For this a heaping tablespoonful of BalelatUS is the best tiling. Spirits of hartshorn in a dose of half an ounce, very much diluted, is also good. If now you have checked the fermentation lor five min utes, the next thing is to make the gas pass off. To do this give warm watery injections freely, injecting all the ani mal will hold, if it is a pailful. Turn the horse s head down hill, and use a small force pump, if you have one, or, if not, use a piece of rubber tube, whioh should be inserted as far as it will go with ease, and the end of the tube may then be turned up and a funnel put in, into which turn warm water. After you have put in all that the horse will hold, turn turn about and let it pass away, aDd re peat the operation till the bowels be come free and the gas passes off. Mean while, another hand Should be prepar ing a dose of physic, which should be from one-lmlf to three-fourths of an ounce of aloes. This, if put into water by itself, will not dissolve, but, if put into a pint of warm water in which a heaping tablespoonful of naleratus has been dissolved, the aloes will dissolve and the saleratus will be useful us an antiseptio to stop the fermentation ; to this can be added some molasses to make it more palatable. Should the animal seem in much pain give two ounces of laudanum or an ounce of ether, or half nn ounce of chloroform. Should the physio not act in an hour or half an hour, if it is a very severe case, repeat the itose, keeping up injections during the "" is structure irom mut ing of the bowels there will be no help. I lie lecturer had known a horse to die in thirty minutes, in spite of all efforts. Aconite is sometimes given to cure colic, but it was of no value ; nor is salt or vinegar, or both, of use. Chalk and vinegar, which are sometimes given, the chalk first and then the vinegar, will alone produce colic, and should never be given, as the effervescence may give pressure sufficient to burst the bowels Iu no event take out the animal and run or trot him about, nor rub his belly with a chestnut rail. The course sometimes adopted of laying the horse on his aide find getting a heavy man with thick boots to walk across him, back and forth, is also useless and cruel in the extreme. If the horse can be saved, it will be by the use of injections and physic. Household Hint. To Clean Silk. Take a quarter of a pound of soft soap, a teaspoonful of brandy and a pint of gin; mix all well together, and strain through a cloth. With a sponge or flannel spread the mixture on each side of the silk without creasing it; wash it iu two or three waters, and iron on the wrong side; it will look ai good as new, and thetpro cess will not injure silks, even of the most delicate color. To Cleanse tub Hair. Ammonia should not be used ou the hair ; it in jures the gloss and softness, causing the liair to becomo harsh and dry. The best WAV tnnlnnnna flo loii. n,.,l !.., il... u i a nuu ivctrjy lilt. pcalp healthy is to beat up a fresh egg nnd rub it well into the huir, or if more convenient rub it into the hair without beating. Bub the egg in until a lather is formed; occasionally wet the hands in warm water, softened with borax; by the time the lather is formed the scalp is clean; then rinse the egg all out in a basin of warm water, containing a table spoonful of powdered borax; after that rmse in one clear warm water. To Whiten Pobcelain Sauce-pans. Have the pans half filled with hot water, throw iu a tablespoonful of powdered borax, and let it boil. If this does not remove all of the stains, soap a cloth and sprinkle on plenty of powdered borax. Scour it well. To Remove Grease from Marble. Take French chalk, reduced to powder, dust it over the spot, and then hold a hot flat iron very near to it. This will soften the grease, while the chalk will absorb it. To Take Mildew Out op Linen. Take soap and rub it well ; then eorape some fine chalk and rub that also in the linen; lay it on the grass; as it dries, wet it a little, and it will come out at twice doing. To Wash Flannels. Flannels should be washed in soft water, soap and much blue. The water should be as hot as the hands will bear; wring them as dry as possible, shake them and hang them out; but do not rinse them after the lather. Preservation op Meat. It is worth knowing at this time of the year that meat may be kept sweet for a long time in an atmosphere strongly impregnated with acetic acid. The' meat is placed on a woouen support or suspended in a close vessel, on the bottom of which some strong acetic acid is poured. How to Cure a Cold. The moment a man is satisfied he has taken cold let him do thsee things : First, eat nothing; second, go to bed, cover up warm in a warm room? third drink as much cold water as he can, or as he wants, or as much hot herb-tea as he can; and in three cases out of four he 111 1- - 1 A 11 11 - . . . win uo luuioBi weu in imrty-six uours.

He said: "What in the name of the bird with the broad and sweeping wing are you doing.?" "It didn't seem to run down," said the barber, apologetically, "and so I crmiimecl it down with the brush." The customer acted like a man who had just made the discovery that a rat had built her nest between his shoulder blades and had kittens thore; so he yelled: " Cram your crammed head to cram motion !" and then turning a double somersault out of his chair he kicked at the reflection of the barber in the looking glass, and fell to knocking it forty wavs for Sunday.

"Would you work if you had the chance ?" asked a worthy resident of West Philadelphia, when two neatly dressed tramps begged him for some thing to eat. "O, yes; just try us," exclaimed the beggars. He gave them lodging in his stable one night and set mem to worK in ins garden tlie next morning. He even gave them old hats, waistcoats and aprons, so that they would not spoil their clothes. On the eveuing before the Fourth of July he told them that he was going away for a day or two, aud that they could proceed with their work in his absence, sleeping in the barn, and protecting the property. When he returned to the house on the evening following he could not find the workingmen. They had forced an en trance into the house by smashing a wire screen over the cellar window, and had made their way up stairs by kicking in a door. Everything was m confu sion in the kitchen, tins pulled out of Elace, carpets ripped up and pieces of roken orockery-ware lying over the floor. In the parlor the same scene of destruction met his gaze. A costly plate-glass mirror was broken into a thousand pieces, chairs were hacked and cut, the keys forced out of the piano, and the front curt of the house was flooded, the tramps having left faucets in the bath-room running. sonB of toil had left behind them ftniiHriifMiriiia n1aa tln am'ta rt the The in a old v...?

Invited In by the I'reititrnt la Kxnmlne lh Ilnk nnd Nnllnflrd. A writer in tho Philadelphia Record gives the following ,remiuideetice : "And how let me icllyouhoW 'Dldloj',' the newsboy, stopped i panic It was soon After the failure of the Bank of Pennsylvania, and public confidence in all moneyed institutions was badly shaken. Savings funds especially felt the shock. Well, n rumor hntl tfono abroad about thn Saving fiul TMn located in th builuing at the southeast CvJiher of Tln'rd and Chestnut streets, whero tho Western Union Telegraph office is now situated. Tho depositors were mostly Gormaus, in small amounts. Didley hod told me he had fiflOO deposited there, nild Bi ilifib a rush was niade on tils' bank I culled on the president as a newspaper man Ip .make Inquiries, pldliiy hadn't got down town yet. but some of the newsboys startea for his house to notify him, while others gathered in the browd. All wer tv mucll interested as himself lii his finances. A failure of the bank meant a stoppage of theater tickets. ' I soon learned that the Savings Fund was in a condition to go through if the rush was checked. ' But we can't stand this panic I'll eo that DidlcV shan't Iobb a ceht, if I have to pay it out of my own pocket said the president. This toucned me, and 1 resolved to help him. I'll Seiid Didley over here when he arrives,' I suggested to the president, ' and when he comes you give him full liberty to look at the books, etc. , as you have given me. Then trust to his tact.' I found Didloy waiting for me at the office, and told him the facts. Over he walked, with the carpless air of, a , eapi; taliet, through thB eroWd into the bank; followed by a . yelling mass of news boys. " I want to see the president, de manded Didley. " 'I am here ; what can I do for yon, Mr. ' (calling him by his proper name). , . " ' Well, Mr. President, I want to know the exact state of affairs. I have $800 deposited here, and I can't afford to lose it. But I don't want to trouble you by drawing it out if it is safe. I ask yoh, on your word of honor, is . it safe ?" " ' I assure yon it is, on my word of honor. But as you have acted so gen tlemanly, walk in and examine the books. ' "Withoueof his little hands thrust under his short coat tails and tho other placed on his breast, Didley Walked into tho directors' room with all the style of a Rothschild. The rush for money Was temporarily stopped by the drowd gazing on this little mail. " Soon Didley emerged, his face show ing evident satisfaction. ' Did you get your money ?' was the salutation of tho crowd of boys, as he reached the step. 'Why should I get my money?' he an swered. ' This bank's all safe I don't scare.' 'Three cheers for the bank!' ' Three cheers for Didley 1' went up from the hundreds of youthful throats. The oldor folks stood awe-stricken. The confidence of tho newsboye asserted itself among them, and by noon the panic was stopped, aud the crowd had disappeared. The president told me afterward that Didley had saved the bank, as a continuance of the rush would have embarrassed them beyond redemption, before they had time to dispose of their assets at a proper price." New York River Thieves. The riches lying upon the wharves along the river front of New York tempt many petty thieves, who, when the at tention of the cargodores is diverted, ore magnanimously indifferent to tho kiud of spoil, and willingly pocket oranges or cocoauuts when no more valuable objects are within their reach. There is, besides, an organized society of river thieves, who do not limit them selves to the small peculations possible in daylight, but indulge in broad acts of piracy under the cover of night board ing vessels, gagging tho captains, and, iu emergencies, committing murder. A special corps of police patrols the rivers iu a small steamer called the Seneca, whose seemingly aimless cruises give opportunity for the close watching of all suspicious craft for the thieves operate from the water as well us from the shore, and sometimes ply their vocation in what to untrained eyes is a simple pleasure boat emerging from their refuge in the guise of fishermen or sailors, aud oper ating in a manner both cautious and auducious. The stronghold of the river thieves is never permanent. It is trans ferred from point to point as often as the elusion of the police is necessary; and one day it may be in a dilapidated hut on a lonely spit of sand washed by. the sea, and on the next under one of the unfrequented piers uptown. A Curiosity of Numbers. The multiplication of 987.654.321 bv 45 is 44,444,444,445. Reversing the or der of the digits and multiplying 126, 456,789 by 45 we get the result equally curious, 6,555,555,505. If we take 123, 457,789 as the multiplicand, and inter changing the figures of 45. take 64 as the multiplier, we obtain another re markable product. 6.666.666.660. Re turning to the multiplicand first used, 987,654,321, and taking 64 as the multi plier again, we get 53,333,333,334 all threes except the first and last figures, which read together 54, the multiplier. Taking the same multiplicand and using 27, the half of 54, as the multiplier, we get a product of 26,666,666,667 all sixes except the first and lust figures, which read together 27, the multiplier. Next interchanging the figures iu the number 27, and using 72 as the multiplier, with 987,654,321 as the multiplicand, we ob tain a product of 71,111,111,112 all ones except the first and last figures, which read together give 72, the mul tiplier. Equally curious results may be ob tained by multiplying these digits, writ ten either way, by nine or by the figures composing the multiples of nine vari ously interchanged. A Sad Illustration of the Hard Times. There was an application made recent ly for employment in the Government printing office by a lady who had been raised in affluence, was an excellent musician, and had mastered sevend languages. - Superintendent Defrees. somewhat emburrassed by the applica tion, told the lady that he had no work in his office befitting one of her attain ments, when with tears in her eyes she said that she was willing to do au y menail service, even if it were scrubbing, the floors, so that she might earn an honest living. This incident serves to illustrate the amouut of poverty and wretchedness in and around Washington. In St. Martin, La., a duel was the re s lit of a difficulty at a ball which occur red between two young men," Bubin aud Ducrest. The arms were pistols, aud tho distance twenty-five yards. At the first bjiot Ducrest was shot to the heart. C0XCEUX1N0 SLEEP. Evil Rr.nll. af the M.dcrn Lnck of Krno. A medical man of embenoo believes that he Ma discovered that weariness is caused Vy what l.t! dalls fallgUe ihatttr' ial," a substance formed in the blood by the action of the muscles and nerves, and which he alleges is only destroyed bv the oxygon of the blood during sleep. This statement in not yet demonstrated, but ( whcllipr, ;,fontiu)ied exjjetiraiMit proves or uispioVes it, the imporiunce of sleop as giving opportun.ty for the r. pair of wasted tissuus, and winding up the system for fresh work, caunot bo overestimated. One great cause of the superior health of our pattern ancestors nver the men mid Women of to-day was that they slept more. There Were7)the (lirrereceS i thWr favor, bitf thin wall UhiS ot the' most imjibrtoht. That whs a rare occasion of rloosure, business or necessity that kept n ypuilg pet;sph; ht Jeust; otit of bed itnl.il huduight, nnd vhoir robust forms and healthy color proved the value of early hours and abundant rest. Certainly they did not have so lively a time as we do ; did not crowd so much exc.toment into a given period, but as they lived longer and had simpler tnstes, it neems probable that they got quite as much out of lifo. One meets oh every band tired-looking young men Whose fuces evoke pity. A hriftty liifoiencb might be drawn from tho oft-repeated injnnetions of health eriticS not to over-study or over-work, that their wan faces "Are nicklied o'er with tho imlo caiit of thought i". But such is not often the case, nor are many of them Bufferfhg from too great exertion of mttscles: They tire exhausted froiii liick of steep; Hial Is al) j but jt is a serious matter, for giving tlicmstlVeii too little time at night for " tired nature's sweet restoier " to repair dam ages, they are not oily Bpeuding each day the strength giined at night, but drawing on their capital. By-and-bye, when "n fmerptency comesi there is no reserved strength to meet it, aud lilKy becomo physically bankrupt, involving those dependent npot them in distress of one sort or another, In most cases it is the unrestrained love of amusement that causes this wrongdoing. Excithg forms of pleas ure which are protrocted to and beyond midnight are indulged in, not once or twice a month, but nightly, and irrepara ble inroads are made upon the constitu tion, at a period when the body is not yet hardened for life's work, by too great nnd constant excitement, as well as by insufficient sleep. Kot only so, but while the capacity for simple pleasures is smothered, bo mudh iudiilgeilcd in mero amusement robB it of all zest. Young misanthropes who jiave drained their cups of life to the dregsMire not in frequent. They go to bed" tired, rise unrested, nnd go to their daily tusks without interest. They conclude that life doesn't pay, and tliey are right It does not pay them because they misuse it. It has no sparkle, and they come to their Bere aud yellow leaves before they are fairly men. The worst feature of all is, indulging constantly their desire for plensurc they lose the power of restraint. " I wish " rules them instead of "I ought," aud instead of being manly, self-denying, energetic, studious, they are, as one of George Eliot's sharp women says: "Poor, squnshy things. The' looke well anoof, but the' woont wear, the' woont wear. " Young men are not the only sinners in respect to sleep. School girls study at night some of them but their pale cheeks are oftener caused by late novel reading and entertaining company. Go to bed at nine o'clock! Missy tip-tilts her small nose in disdain. She is not a child, she would have you to know, but a young lady of, sny fifteen years,- and knows how to take core of herself. The one thing that an American mother is usually profoundly ignorant of is how cither to exact or win obedience from her chits of girls. So thewuste goes on. Clergymen who spend Saturday night over their sermons enter their pulpits worn and dull on Sunday, and preach people to sleep because they are them selves half asleep in body and wholly so in spirit. They go on sea voyages and European tours in search of lost health which they would find at homo if they would sleep enough and at proper hours. The poor mothers and housekeepers who are kept awake by restless children aud unfinished tasks have more of our pity, but even they might manage better than they do. Babies are sure to bo ill and restless if their mothers get over tired. It is surprising to see how many of the indispensable pieces of work may be postponed if one will but think bo. "I might have done a little more," wrote Faith Rachester ouce, " but I re membered that I was tho baby's mother, and so I went to bed." Sensible woman and good mother ! It is pitiful to think how muny nursing babies die of em broidery aud ruffled skirts; of cake and iies, aud superfluous machine and lousework of all sorts, It is not put down so in the registry of deaths. They cull the trouble by various names cholera infantum, marasmus, hydro cephalus, eta but the recording angel knows better, and, without mincing matters, writes : " Died of fatigue be cause its mother was ignorant, or obstinate, or vain and silly," as the case may be. Thank Heaven it is no longer thought an enviable distinction in a woman to have delicate health. The time has turned since the days that some of us can remember, when the girl who fainted easily was thought to be of a little higher order of beings than her more robust companions. Health is becoming fush iouuble, but public sentiment will not be entirely sound upon the question bo long as the fact is not generally recog nized that to risk tho health for present personal gratification is worse than a stupid blunder, it is sinful, and while there is no little cultivation of the moral sense that people very generally do not care whether their actions are right or wrong. A return to the habits of life hi vogue a century ago are neither to be expected nor desired. It is richt that we should share the pleasures of our own time.and be in sympathy with its fuller light; but surely lie who realizes that he is not sim ply one of a procession passing from birth to death is not here merely to serve and please himself, but to bear his part in the world's work will feel mor ally bound not to unfit himself for future usefulness by needlessly exhausting his body.

Turks. under the command of Limau Bey, had an engagement with the Russians, de feating them and driving them back into the Rulknns with heavy loss. , The bat tle ground was at Febditch, twelve miles frMh tfeni fli.plirA; . 1 At first the Russians soemod to fie suc cessful, but the determined fighting of the Turks afterward appeared to promise a Turkish victory. The Russian forces consisted of infautry and cavalry, out numbering the Turks, whose first attack was repulsed, and a flanking column of a superior force of dismounted dragoons greittly imperiled the Turkish position. The Turkish artillery was Bplettdidly handled, raking the columns of the Rus sians add .thinning them at every dis charge. Perceiving the terrible havoc caused by the Turkish fire, General Gourkha ordered the Russians to charge. A fearful hand-to-hand conflict ensued. The Turks formed in hollow squares af ter losing several guns. The Russians attacked desperately, and a fearful earn- ngo followed on both sides, The Rus Hiaft fiulikihrr movement Biid desperate Onslaught threatened to exterminate tho Turks, when suddenly brisk firuig on the left aunounced the arrival of Turkish re eilforcfunPijts nnder the command of Raouf Pacha. The Russians had no artillery, ami tho rapid advance of the Turkish re-enforce ments compelled them to face a new euhmy, thus affording their opponents an opportunity to abandon their hollow Squares and throw forward flanks and renfw tho attack vigorously; The RiiSsjnn Jine( thus "htsid between two rows of bayohc'ifl, was completely overwhelmed. Tho Cossacks hittdo a splendid resistance, fighting with the utmost but unavailing bravery. The Turkish charge was made over ''"lips ,of dead bodies, driving tho Rus sians back inlO the jnoiitttnins. The Turks pursued tho flying Russians until the mountain pass was recovered. Astonished Raltlesiinkps. One of the earliest settlers of the country around Lake Champlain wan Colonel Raymond. He understood the character and disposition of the redskin natives of the forest, and lived with them ill mucll harmony, frequently employing them to row him Up and down the lake, as ho had occasion. One stout fellow, by tho name of Bigbear, had his wigwam at no great distance from the colonel's dwelling, hlid wns often there. The colonel, having occasion to Visit some distant shore of the lake, employed Big bear to row him in his canoe. On their return, they passed near a high yet sloping ledge of rock, on which lay an immense number of rattlesnakes asleep and basking in the sun. The Indian gave a penetrating look at the colonel, and thus iuqnired : " ltaymun love fun ? 1 " Yes," was the reply.

So he rowed along, silent and Blow, aud cut a crotched stick from a bunch of hazels upon the bank. " Steady now, Rnymnn," said ho, as he clapped the crotch astrido the neck of a serpent that was asleep close to the edge of the water. "Take um now, Raymtin. Hole fassl" The colonel took hold of the stick, keeping the serpent down, while Big bear tied up a little Back of powder, put ting one end of a Blow match therein. He then nadc it fast to the snake's tail, and setting fire to tho match gave orders to "Let um go! at the same time push ing the canoe off the shore. The snake, being liberated, crawled away to his den. The Indian immediately then stood up aud clapped his hands, making as loud a noise' as possible, and thus roused the other Berpents, who in a moment disap peared. Now look. Ravmun. now look see fun," said he; and in about a minute the powder exploded, when there was, to be sure, fun alive. The snakes in thousands covered the rocks, all hissing, rattling, twining, twirling nnd jumping in every way imaginable. Colonel Raymond burst into a loud laugh that echoed across the lake, pleased alike with the success of the trick, and tne ingenuity of the savage b invention.

The Bum oontinaea to be the strenuous sdvocate of reform and retrenchment, and of the substitution of tatesmanship, wisdom, and integrity for hollow pre teuce, imbecility, and fraud in the administration of public affairs. It contends for the government of the people by the people and for the people, aa opposed to governmeut by frauds in the ballot-box and in the ooudU ing of votes, enforced by military riolenoe. It endeavors to supply its readers a body now not far from a million of souls with the most careful, complete, and trust worthy accounts of current events, ana employs for this purpose a numerous and carefully selected staff of re porter and correspondents. Its reports from Washing ton, especially, are full, accurate, and fearless; and it doubtless continues to deserve and enjoy the hatred of those who thrive by plundering the Treasury or by usurp ing what the law does not give them, while it endeavors to merit the confidence of the public by defending the rights of the people against the encroachments of on justified power. , The price of the Daily Bum is 65 cents a month, or S4J.50 a year, post-paid ; or, with the Bunds edition 7.7 O a year.
