FARM, GARDEN AND HOUSEHOLD CloTeOnd Kre for Hots. In my experience, Bays a writer, I have fonnd nothing bo profitable for bog pasture as plover ana rye, and I think rye preferablo, and the reason they are better than timothy, blae grass and all similar grasses is they remain more tender for a longer period than other grasses, which so Boon become wiry and hard, partaking of the nature of hay, and I have never kndwn hogs to thrive on it, althongh other stock does. To use rye profitable for pasture fall rye ulionld be sown for spring pasture and spring rye for later pasture, and by not pasturing too long and too close there . will be considerable head out, .which when ripe will, with the weeds that natur ally grow among grain, make;good pasture until time to commence feeding corn, at least such is my experience. As to using any of the grasses for hog pasture, I would prefer a weed pasture, and I will here say that I am of opinion if Borne of the weeds bo eagerly eaten by hogs were domesticated and properly cultivated they would prove more satis factory for hog pasture than anything used of grass kind. Whnt Size Trees to nay. Purchasers of trees often make the mistake of supposing that the larger the tree bought the greater the gain. Nur serymen, who of all men should know as to this, say that there is absolutely nothing gained by buying large trees. This applies, of course, in a general sense. If a tree could be removed every few years, so as to have an abun dance of fibrous, or small roots, there would be no check on removal, and such a tree would never become too large to move profitably. The gonernl run of trees are not treated thus, and so the larger the tree the less likely is it to have many roots, and as a consequence the tree must either be pruned back se verely, or lot alone to make a weak growth, and perhaps die. The best way is to get n medium tree, treat it well, and it will give far more satisfac tion than a large one would have done, without much doubt. War on Weeds. Let the war on weeds begin early and keep it up without cessation. When ever there is the shadow of a chance weeds assert themselves, and if not quickly subdued soon monopolize pas tures, meadows, fields and gardens. A sovereign remedy for most weeds is thorough cultivation. A weedy field planted to corn and cultivated early and late, especially early, for a season or two, will generally lose even the tough est characters among extraneous growths. A sharp-toothed cultivator will accomplish much, and where this misses, hand hoes will finish tho rest. When it is not practicable to place weed-infested fields under continued cultivation, much may bo accomplished by digging noxious growths up by the roots, mowing them down repeatedly or smothering them out, according as they propagate lrom seed, root, or from both. To carry on the war intelligently farm ers must know somewhat of the nature and growth of the weeds. White daisies, one of the worst pests meadows have to contend with, spread from both root and seed; they should be dug out, there fore, before the blossom matures, that the seed crop for that year may be destroyed as well as the germ which produces the stem and blossom the next. This, by the way, is most readily accomplisned when tho ground is coft from recent rain. The 6ame may be said of the iron-weed that is of similar habit. Burdocks will finally succumb to re peated cuttings provided they are cut three or four inches under the surface. Elders and briers may in time be over come by repeated mowiDgs and then pasturing with sheep. Milkweed can be exterminated by continued cuttings, never allowing the plant to show long above ground. Tlantain, if not permit ted to mature its seed for twoyeais, will die out. May and August ale fit ting months in which to mow such wseds as succumb from loss of leaves. The Canada thistle is perhaps most quickly checked by the rank growth of some field crop which overtops it and smothers it out. Great care should be exercised to prevent all classes of weeds from forming their seed. Kew York World. Culture of Celerv. Celery needs rich, friable, deep soil, and much moisture. It is very imp a tiont of any check. The best of treat ment will not restore plants that have been once stunted to a condition of free, tender growth until much time has been lost, and the season probably passed. It grows very slowly at first, and does not endure transplanting well when large. So, as it must have the wholo season in order to attain large size growing best when tho air is rather cool and humid it is customary to sow the seed in a small bed or frame in May, to eet the plants out, four inches apart, as soon as they can be handled, and then lifting them to their final rows, where they must be much further apart, in ground that has been well manured for some such early crop us potatoes, onions or peas. The hot weather which ripens these also stops the growth of the celery. During this partial rest in July the celery plants can be lifted each with a good ball, or else carried with the roots in water or otherwise moist ; and then, if set neatly and rapidly, and watered freely, they will grow on without drooping, and tho barbarous practice of covering them completely dark with boards need not be resorted to. If there are slugs is the soil, set bran to attract them to their death, or keep the surface rough and dusty, impassable to them by fro qucnt strewing of sifted dry coal ashes or charred rubbish. In growing the large sorts there is much advantage in sotting them in com pact rows generally a double row, plants six inches apart in the bottom of a narrow trench. Here they have cooler and moister air through August, and when the stems are large enough to be earthed up in order to blanch them it is done with less earth and labor. But the soil must be deep and rich, for it is absolutely necessary that the roots have prime soil to extend into. Fine friable soil or bitted ashes is necessary for the earthing up. It must only surround the stems, and not come in the way of the new leaves shooting up out of the cen tral plumule. Little rings of tin, of two or three inches diameter for me dium sized sorts, are convenient to hold the stems erect ; for they naturally in cline to spread, and are apt to break If bent much. The rings guide them up ward, and are easily slipped higher when earthing, saving time and trouble. The earthing should be deferred until a good growth has been made, yet it must be done while there is yet two or three weeks of September or Ootobor growth, as neither tha leaves nor the stems whiten merely by being kept in the dark warm and growth are requi site for it. Celery Mored in a rturk cellar at a " low temperature (just above freezing) will come out with the leaves of as fine a green as when put in, and stems equally un changed. A grower on a large scale keeps his celery by leaving tre middle of three or five rows stand in place, ridged up. Tho rows on each side are dug about November 1, and the plants set leaning apainst the ridge of the middle row, with tops down. The whole is covered with soil. Manure or straw is added before December, and boords may cover all. The plants dug and re versed come out with leaves green and stems entire in better order than the row left in jilace, in which there may be, here and there, a plant touched with rot. Although celery wants much moisture while growing, it cannot en dure wet while in its winter sleep, either either about the feet or head; JVeip I ork Tribune. Recipe. Asparagus Omklet. Boil two pounds of tender, fresh-cut asparagus in very little water, with a small portion of salt, or, what is bettor still, steam the aspar agus without water until it is tender chop it very fine, mix it with the yolks of five, atd whites of three, well-beaten eggs, and two tablespoonfuls of sweet cream, fry and serve quite hot. Green Pea Sorr. Put two quarts of green peas with four quarts of water, boil for two hours, keeping Ihe steam waste supplied by fresh boiling water then strain thrm from the liquor, re turn that to tho pot, rub the peas through a sieve, chop au onion fine, and a small sprig of mint, let it boil ton minutes, then stir a tablespoonful of Hour into two of butter, and pepper and salt to taste, stir it smoothly into the boiling soup. Serve with well-buttered sippets of toasted bread. ArrLE Jelly. Make a syrup of a pound of sugar, putting in" sullicient water to dissolve it, When boiled enough lay in it the peeled raid cored halves of some large sour apples, Let them simmer till tender, then lay them care fully in a dish so that they will remain unbroken and in good shape. Add an other pound of nugar to tho syrup, let it boil, 6kini it and when partly cool pour it over the apples. When the dish gets cold each dainty piece of apple will be surrounded by a delicious jelly. Eat with cream. . Strawberry Cvstard. Make a nice boiled custard of a quart of milk and the yolks of five eggs properly sweet ened. Boil in a double kettle till it thickens to the right consistency; take it off the lire and put in the flavoring. Take a gill of sugar and a pint of ripe berries; crush them together and pass through a fine strainer. Take the whites of four of the eggs, and while beating them to a stiff froth add a gill of sugar, a little at a time. Then to the sugar and eggs add the sweetened strawberry juice, beating all the while to keep it stiff. This makes a beautiful pink float, which is to bo placed on top of the custard. Quaker 0.melet. A quoker omelet is a handsome and sure dish when care is taken in the preparation. Three eggs, half a cup of milk, ono and a half table spoonfuls of corn starch, one teaspoon ful of salt, one tablespoonful of butter. Put the omelette pan and a cover that will fit close on to heat. Beat the yolks of the eggs, the corn starch and the salt very well together. Beat the whites to a stiff froth, add to tho well-beaten yolks and corn starch. Stir all together very thoroughly, then add the milk. Now put the butter in the hot pan, and when melted pour in the mixture, cover and pla"e on the stove where it will brown but Lot burn. Cook about seven min utes, fold, turn on a hot dish and serve with the cream sauce. HEALTH H1XTS. Cornsilk is said to be an efficient and powerful remedy for d opsy, blad der troubles and diseases of the kidneys. The Louisville Medical Xews gives an account of the medical properties of cornsilk, and the cures that have been effected by its use. The way to use it is to take two double-handfuls of fresh cornsilk and boil in two gallons of water until but u gallon remains. Add sugar to make a syrnn. Drink a turn bier of this thrice daily, and it will re lieve dropsy by increasing the flow of the urine most enormously. Other dis eases of the bladder and kidnevs are benefited by the remedy, which is prompt, efficient and grateful to the stomach. Die treatment can be con tinued for months without danger or inconvenience, A foreign physician who has devoted considerable time and study to the sub ject, furnishes the following recipe for inducing clearness of complexion : One ounce of honey, three ounces of ground barley, and the white of an egg mixed to a paste, and spread thickly over the face before retiring. In the morning it is to be washed off with warm water, wetting the surface with a sponge and letting it soften first. This application is to be repeated each night until tho skin becomes fine and soft. In addition a daily bath in tepid water, followed with vigorous rubbing, is advised. This recipe is probably as good as any, and lias the merit of being quite simple and harmless. If you are going to try only a part of this recipe, take the bath and the rubbing. To prevent hair from falling out or turning grey, take a teacupful of dried sage, and boil it in a quart of soft water for twenty minutes. Strain it off and add a piece of borax the size of an English walnut; pulverize the borax. Put the sage tea, when cool, into a quart bottle: add the borax; shake well together, and keep in a cool place. Bni9h the hair thoroughly and rub the wash well on t. e head with the hand. Then after a good hard rubbing, brush the hair well before a fire so it will become dry. The following is said to be a remedv for weak or sore eyes : Get a five-cent cake of elder flowers at the druggist's and steep in one gill of soft water. It must be steeped in bright tin or earthen ware. Strain nicely, and add three drops of laudanum ; bottle it tight and Keep in a cool place. Use as a wash, letting some of it get into the eyes. Follow this, and relief is certain. If the eyes are painful or much sore, make small, soft compresses, wet them in the mixture and bind over the eyes at night. I can warrant the above as harmless and sure, having tried it in a number of cases where other skill and remedies had utterly failed. If the eyes are badly inflamed, nse it very freely. A tea made of elder flowers and drank, will help to cleanse the blood. Pure rock salt and water will strengthen your eyes if you bathe them daily in it. A Glimpse of Lisbon. j We floated this morning down the Tagus, the glittering panorama of the city unfolding before us. Its houses, built of creamy marble-likfl stone, ter raced the hill-sides, forming a stately staircase, down which Lisbon stepped as a queen to the water's edge. We could not dispute her claim; whatever city may be ranked first for beauty of situation, Lisbon can be classed no lower than second among all the cities of the globe. Its wonderful atmosphere bathed all with a golden glamour. The tiled fronts of the houses, which, seen nearer, suggest patchwork bedqnilt hung out to air, flashed back the sunshine from their glazed surfaces like so many gems; dome and cupola, church tower and palace facade, outlined themselves in graceful profile against the sky, as ex quisite as a poet's droam, and as un real as some prehistorio legend. Wo did not wonder that Camoens attributed its foundation to the first Greek explorer who rounded the pillars of Ilerculos: " Ulyasos, ho, though fated to destroy, On Asian ground tho heaven-built towers of Trov, On Enmpo's Btrand, moro grntoful to tlio nkie, Ho liado tho eternal walls of Listion riso." A nearer view'of Lisbon's streets, whilo it dispels in a certain degreo thoviHion liko enchantment of the distant picturo, brings out details of never-ceasing in terest. We spend our days in long walks and drives up and down moun tainous streets, that wind and climb, criss-crosH, angle, and lose theniRolvos in labyrinthine tanplos, blind alloys or pleasant squares. We wonder aliko at the bizarre costumes of the lower classes, and tho similarity to Americans or rather Parisian styles displayed by tho more well-to-do. We saunter along tho quays, and study fishermen and Gallegos. We look up at the balconies draped with a bright rug or gay shawl, at the parti colored awnings and windows, where a beautiful face shows against a dark background like a Renibrantesquo por trait. We scan the attractive windows of the goldsmiths' shops in tho Una Aurea, or jingle along m tlie Americano, as they christen the open street-car, through the Broadway of the city, which leads to the Belem suburb. The peo ple live much upon the streot, and it is here that they are to be studied to the best advantage. The houses of the poor open to it, and we have a full new of the home life from the narrow sidewalk. In the more elegant quarter the wistaria droops in purple festoons over the baUstrades which edge the roof, while spots of rosy pink or vivid scarlet tell of blossoming olean ders or cacti, for the roof of one row of houses often forms its own garden, or that of the houses upon the next ter race. These hanging gardens reminded the eccentric Beckford of places of in terment, "as if the deceased mhabi tants of the palace were sprouting up in the shape of prickly-pears, Indian ngs, gaudy hollyhocks, and peppery capsi cums." Here and there roofs of red semi cylindrical tiles projected over the house-fronts, suggesting the fluted frill of an old lady's cap. Everywhere there were sparkling color and dazzling light. Sometimes the tiles on the fronts of the houses formed mosaics of gigantic figures, vases of flowers and baskets of fruits; now and then, above some rusty lantern, which in Southey's time served the double purpose of lllu minuting the streets and burning in honor of the sacred pictures above them, the tiles shaped themselves into Madonnas martyrs in flames, and saints in glory a circumstance which called from the merry poet the bon mot, " These saints are the most enlightened personages m Lisbon." Tf tho streets of Lisbon were dark in Southey's time they have blazed with light since the advent of gas; the poor saints alone remain in the obscurity Of tiie .Dark Ages. Harper s Magazine, Deeds of Peculiar Atrocity. There occurred on Saturday and Sunday nights, says a recent issue of the New lork hrenmg Fast, two epi sodes so peculiarly shocking that the heart almost stands still in the pres ence of their atrocity and horror. Pat rick Quinlan, an umbrella maker, shot his mother last night in the head and arm with a revolver. She is likely to die, and thus to atone for her offense against her son, which was that of re. fusing to give him money with which to buy drink. A similar, if less fright ful, crime was that of Rosa Smith, Mho on Saturday night broke her mother's leg with a chair becauso she interfered to prevent the dutiful daughter from assaulting her lather. N e have unhap pily seen of late years too many proofs 01 a weauening sense oi tlie obligation to nonor their fatners and mothers, or. indeed, anybody or anything else on the part of the younger members of the community, and that, it may be added, in no one social grade. But that such impiety should go the length of the in fliction of grievous bodily hurt, and, yet further, to assassination, seems al most incredible.

Of a Chinese dwarf who arrived re cently in Isew York, a Herald reporter says: Che-Mah, who is celebrated as the homeliest man extant, is a native of Ningpo, China, where he was born forty-four years ago. His exact height is two feet, which leaves a difference between himself and his fellow-coun tryman, Chang, of exactly seventy-two inches of course in the latter's fi,vor. For some eight months those two whims of nature traveled through Europe to gether, drawing large crowds wherever they went. This is the dwarfs first visit to America. To look at he is a re markable specimen of human nature. and, judging by his face and hair, has more the appearance of a Japanese than a Chinaman. He grows a thick goatoe and well cultivated mustache. The top of his head is somewhat bald, but it is well fringed by long, jet black hair. His lace is round and full and his eyes be token determination. Both his hands and feet are small even for so diminu tive a person. Under the armpits and i cross the chest he measures within a fraction of his height, while a No. hat fiU him loosely and his boots measure barely five inches in length, The length of his legs is eleven inches.

A correspondent of tho Portland Pre relates this humorous anecdote of Artemns Ward: Half a dozen Of his associates were sitting one day in his room at tho village hotel where ho boarded, when an old woman drovo no to Ihe store opposite with a pair of donkeys a Jack and Jenny hitched to a li tlo wngon. Jack was' t.lio noisiest brutointhe country. Ho had a voice Worpo tlian tho handlo of tho town pump on a lrosty morning, and was proud of it. In a minute his tail rose to a horizontal, his noso was thrust for ward, his lips parted and tho beast bli'W Ins dreadful blast. A second and a third tinio it was repeated. Arlpimm quietly thought " that thing niiht bo fixed,' and disappeared from the room, lie went over and appeared to make a care ful inspection of tho forewheels of a wagon, tho harness and tho hitehnp, and caino back saving that the donkey was all right; the brute must have made a mistake about something. Presently tliero wero indicntions of ft movement on Jack's part; tho neck was extended, tlio lips curled and tho tail roso to the pivotal point, and no further. Tho trumpet didn't Round. Jack thought there Mas a mistake nomewlicro hesitated reflected and tried again. Tho front tmtt. sonio of it. was all right; but tlio equilibrium could not bo reached. After a timo an other attempt Mas made and failed. Jack turned his head round to ascertain tho canso of tho failure, but couldn't see any. Tlie fifth vain attempt to bray was followed byasiiiteful kick ut Jennv: but it didn't euro the matter. At last ho gave it ui and stood at that store door tho most dejected-looking, discon tented donkey in existence. Meantime Artemns enjoyed the fun and discharged a rattling fusilndo of pungent humor that kept the party in a roar, and made tne wnoio allair ono of the most ludi crous that I ever experienced. Artemns had attached a heavy stono to the don key's tail, leaving just play enough to the cord to ollow the beast to get his tail nearly up to " concert pitch." renialc Executions in Russia. Sophia Perofskaia is tho first woman ever judicially hanged in Russia, and, in fact, the only woman executed in the czar's dominions since 171!), in which year a governess named Mary Hamilton Had lier Head jublicly cut oil proba bly with a sword -at St. Petersburg, for having mailo away with her three illegitimate children. Twenty-five years after that event Elizabeth, daughter of Peter the Great, abolished the punishment of death, and it has never been reintroduced into tho Rus sian criminal code since. Hence, when any ono commits a more than usually atrocious crime in Russia, iu order that the death punishment may be awarded, the criminal must be tried by a military tribunal, as was done iu the case of all tho Nihilists who have been tried durirg tho last three vears, or else by a special high court of jus tice like the courts which tried Solovieff for firing at the late czar in St. Peters burg (April, 187!)), and the persons who ultimately succeeded in taking his life.
