How ! Jlastajw PowHry.
I nm one of many who uot only
In'lievc, lut know from experience-,
that there is no stork kept by the far
mer that will pay o large a return,
for iuonov expended, as a well-man-
need poultrv-vard. As we cannot
compete with our Western farmers in
the production of pork, with grain at
ten cents per bushel, let us devote
more attention to poultry, that will
pav us five hundred jht cent, more
thanp'irk; and as to manure, will
produce, "fur each bushed of food," a
much more valuable quality ot manure.
Small potatoes, beets, pumpkins,
cabbages in fact any crop usually
fed to swine, can be profitably dealt
out to the fowls.
Now comes the question, How r-hall
it be done ! Without theorizing, I
will give my method of keeping.
Select 200 young fowls, Nov. 1st, in
laying condition ; place them in sepa
rate coops, from 12 to 15 in each ; at
night put one bushel of small potatoes,
beets, or pumpkins into vour boiler,
"which should be convenient to the
coops," adding one quart of onions;
boil fifteen minutes: then add four
quarts of corn meal ; after well mixing,
cover the mess, and in the morning
your fowls will enjoy a warm break
fast at a trifling expense. At noon
feed oats, and at night corn, taking
care that they arc supplied with clean
water and plenty of shells. Salt the
mess oca.-imolh, and once a week a
little fresh beef is verv beneficial. A
flock of 200 well-fed fowls can be
kept at an expense of 73 to 80 cents
per day. My Winter eggs sell at the
door at 40 "to 50 cents per dozen ;
therefore the price of two dozen eggs
feeds mv flock; and when I collect
from eight to ten dozens per day we
can easily figure the profits. The
manure fully compensates for the care
in feeding, etc.
It is as necessary for the farmer to
have a warm room to start his early
chicks in as a hot-bed is for his early
vegetables. Now is the time to heat
this room. Sit every hen hen you
can get, so that March 1st will find
you with 200 or 300 chickens ; the
young cocks will bring $1 each in
June. Here comes in your profit, as
the same cocks would not command
higher prices if kept all Summer for
Thanksgiving, and your pullets will
commence laying early in the Fall,
taking the place of the 200 hens,
which will be found fat and ready for
Thanksgiving market. Having ex
perimented with nearly every known
breed I unhesitatingly pronounce the
Light ISrahmas and the Partridge
Cochins, as egg-producers and market
fowls, far superior to all others.

The old practice of building farm
gates with heavy four-by-four scant
ling for posts and end pieces, and oak
boards riveted together, tenanted,
etc., causing an exjtense of from three
to five dollars a gate, and an everlast
ing trouble to keep the gate when
hung from sagging, I long since
abandoned. As a substitute, and as
forming a gate that has never sagged
for ten years, I take five pieces of
inch boards, each ten feet long, one
eight inches wide for the bottom strip,
and each of the others four inches
wide. I then take one piece four
inches wide for one end upright, aud
one piece eight inches wide for the
end pieces, where the hinges ought to
be. These strips are four feet long,
that being high enough for any gate
for ordinary purjwses. Now lay
down your end pieces, then place the
cight-incb-widc and ten-foot-long strip
for the bottom, nail it at each end to
the upright with wrought nails ; now
take three of the four-inch wide strips
and lay them on parallel with the
bottom one, dividing the spaces so as
to leave four inches between the
lower two boards, and six inches
each space between the upper ones;
nail as before. Now turn the gate
over, and take the remaining strip,
lay it an angle from the bottom, at the
hinge end, to the top at the latch end ;
cut it so that it will fit in and lap
close to the long strips ; nail it. Now
hang the gate with strong hinges, and
you have a gate that is light and will
not sag, and just as perfect protection
against cattle as one made by the
joiner, and costing, as named above,
from three to five dollars. Any
person can put together and hang the
above-named rate in two hours.

Although some forests are regarded
as sources of malaria, and oak trees
aud bazel bushes Lave been counted
insalubrious in Europe, like the
tamarind tree in the East, yet the air
of pine tree forests appears always
grateful to the lungs, and has been
considered wholesome, although of
its absolute curative influence there is
little evidence, and, indeed, it must be
difficult to procure such. The idea of
pine forests exercising a balmy influ
ence on the lungs is a very ancient
one. Pliny considered that the air of
jjic pine forests was more scful in '
phthisis and in convalescence from
acute diseases than the voyage to
Egypt recommended in such cases in
those days. Both Bournem uth and
Arachon at the present d ny owe a
good deal of their reputation to their
pine woods. The air of the latter is
said to be distinctly scdutivc. On the
whole, then, the air of the pine woods
of the Black Forest may be regarded
as an element entering into the con
sideration of the value of its baths.
But besides merely inhaling the air
of its forests, people have of late
years made much use of the products
of pine in baths, vapor baths, and in
halations. Even this is not entirely
modern ;7or the ancients recommen
ded chiefly the internal use of de
coctions of strobili and of pine tops,
and thought pine nuts very nseful in
diseases of the chest ; and at a more
modern time, besides the internal use
of drinks made from the spruce and
the tar-water so long in vogue, we had
inhalations of tar and of various
resins. The ancients did, indeed, re
commend in gout baths of water in
which cedar wood had been boiled,
but the use of the pine extract bath is j
quite modern. It has spread rapidly,
and is in use at Gleisweiler, Rehburg,
Diebcnstcin, Kuhla, and Eisenach.
These aromatic extracts are procured j
from various pines as from the Abies
excelsa, or Norway spruce, silver fir,
Pinus svlvestris or Scotch fir, Pmus
maritima or Bordeaux pine, the Wey
mouth pine, also from the common
larch, and the most fragrant of all
from P. pumilie, the mountain pine.
The baths vary considerably in
strength and in odor, according to the
way in which they arc prepared. The
commonest way of making the bath
is by adding to common water a ccr- J
tain quantity of the decoction got by
passing steam through the young pine
tops Ijndon Lancet.

and exceedingly meek demeanor ; and

The parson says that woman is al
ways most restless under the most
favorable conditions, and that there
is no state in which she is really hap
py except that of change. I suppose
this is the truth taught in what has
Iwen called the "Myth of the Garden."
Woman is perpetual revolution, and
is that element in the world which
continually destroys and recreates.
She is the experimenter and suggester
of new combinations. She has no be
lief in any law of eternal fitness of
things. She is never even content
with any arrangement of her own
house. The only reason the mistress
could give, when she arranged her
apartment, for hanging a picture in
what deemed the most inappropriate
place, was that it had never been
there before. Woman has no respect
for tradition, and because a thing is
as it is, is sufficient reason for cLnng
ing it. When she gets into law, as
she has come into literature, we shall
gain something in the destruction of
all our vast and musty libraries of
precedents, which now fetter our ad
ministration of individual justice. It
is Mandevil'e's opinion that women
are not so sentimental as men, and
are not so easily touched with the un
spoken poetry of nature; being less
poetical and having less imagination,
they and more fitted for practical af
fairs, anil would make less failures in
business. I have noticed the almost
selfish passion for their flowers which
old gardeners have, and their reluc
tance to part with a leaf or a blossom
from their family They love the
flowers for themselves. A woman
raises flowers for their use. She is
destruction in a conservatory. She
wants the flowers for her lover, for
the sick, for the poor, for the Lord on
Easter day, for the ornamentation of
her house. She delights in the costly
pleasure of sacrificing them. She
never sees a flower but she has an in
tense but probably sinless desire to
pick it.
The T Wives f Aaron Burr.
The revival of the celebrated J umel
case, which for years ha been drag
ging its slow length through the New
York court? naturally recalls the name
and history of the man who figured
as the second husband of the woman
whose property bids fair to lie swal
lowed up in the insatiate maw of the
legal profession. We do not of course
propose to attempt any biography or
criticism oi one wuo Has been so
thoroughly crucified by the pens of
scribblers of high and low degrees,
as Aaron Burr; but the notoriety be
has gained lends a strong interest to
some details of bis domestic life which
are entirely familiar to the majority
of the cewspaper readers.
It was while commanding Ins reg
iment in New Jersey during the early
years of the Revolutionary war, that
Col. Burr made the acquaintance of
the lady who afterwards became bis
first wife, and the mother of that in
comparable daughter, whose genius
and fidelity have almost redeemed
her father's name. Mrs. Thcodosia
Prevost was then -the wife of Col.
Prevost of the British army, at that
time in the West Indies. She resid
ed at Paramus, with her mother and
sister and two sons the latter spright
ly little fellows whose vivacity could
not be other that attractive to a roan
60 passionately fond of bright children
as Burr was till the day of his death
Mrs. Provost was ten years younger
I than the officer whom she captivated
by her rare grace and culture, but
neither the difference in age, nor
absence of beauty lessened her charms
in his estimation. Her family the
Do Vicnnes was of French or Swiss
origin, and she herself was the first
womau educated in accordance with
the European standard whom Burr
had ever met. She was thoroughly
versed in the best literature of the
day, and undoubtedly did much to
ward forming the taste ana snaping
the intellectual development oi an
admirer, who, above all things in the
world, appreciated hraius pauicu
Inrlv when lodared in a female bead
Her manners arc represented to have
been the perfection of elegance and
refinement, and long after she. had
been mercifully taken away from the
evil to conic. Burr was accustomed
to sav that if Jus own manners were
in any respect superior to those of
men in general, it was mainly owing
to the insensible influence of hers.
borne unpublished letters from her
hand which we have seen, abundantly
confirm this estimate of her charac
ter the penmanship is cxouisitelv
neat and clear, and the matter is no
less remarkable for its vigorous com
mon sense than for the admirable
stvle in which it is set forth.
We have said that Burr was an ad
mirer of Mrs. Prevost, but there is
not the slightest reason to suppose
that his admiration ever went beyond
the bounds of strict propriety, or that
her behavior was in any respect un
worthy the position she occupied. If
she was conscious of the impression
she had made, that consciousness
never revealed itself in word or act
and it is the most wretched injustice
to fasten upon her reputation even
the shadow of the stain which rests
upon him whose brighter fortunes
she had shared. But when, not long
after their first meeting, Col. Prevost
died, it is probable that this mutual
self-restraint gradually began to di
appear ; for we know that when Burr
resigned from the army ia 1770, they
were engaged to be married the
ceremony being delayed only by those
pecuniary considerations which can
not be overlooked even in the delirium
of passionate Jove. Jioth were poor,
and let it be rememlaTed as a slight
atonement lor his many subsequent
transgressions, that Burr deliberately
married for affection and not for
money. He was young, handsome
and brilliant ; he had come out of the
war with a splendid record for brav
ery and military skill ; he had In'gim
the practice of the law under the most
favorable auspices ; he was univers
ally regarded as a rising man whose
future could not fail to be glorious,
and with these recommendations he
might have wooed and wona younger
and lovelier bride, who would have
brought him the influence of her family
as well as the more tangible blessing
of au ample fortune. To say that
Burr did not see the advantages which
might result from making what is now
termed ' a good match' is to suppose
him a fool which certainly he was
not. That he put aside these advan
tages while perfectly comprehending
their weight is at least an evidence
that his heart was not quite as hard,
his selfishness not quite as profound
as enemies would have us believe.
Burr "vas admitted to the bar Jan.
19, 1782, and on the 2d of July fol
lowing he married Mrs. Prevost
she then In-ing 3G years old and he 20.
The pair took up their residence in
Albany where June 24, 17S3
Thcodosia was born. As far as we
arc able to judge from the scanty
material at our command, the union
was from first to last a bnppy one.
Wedded to the woman he loved, sur
rounded by the purest and tenderest
associations, withnocausc foranxiety,
present or prospective, and with
everything to stimulate his ambition
and gratify his wishes the next
twelve years were by far the best
and brightest of Burr's long and var
ied career. How he must have looked
back to those years from the gloomy
standpoint of that period, when there
could hardly be found in the whole
country a dozen persons who dared
to call themselves his friends!
Mrs Burr died of cancer in the
spring of 1794 in time to escape the
abuse and ignominy which were des
tined so soon to blast her husband's
name forever. When the grave open
ed for her, Burr's star was high in
the heavens ; ten years afterward it
set in eternal night on the heights of
Weehawken. The bullet which kill
ed Hamilton annihilated Burr. Better
infinitely better for him lmd the light
ning smote him ln forc he touched the
fatal trigger.
Eliza, or Betsey Bowen after
wards Madame Jumel and the second
Mrs. Burr was born it is said, in
Providence, about the year 1775.
Her mother was a prostitute, and the
daughter seems to have followed, for
a time at least, the same profession.
She was for several years a servant
in the family of Major Ballon, and
while there gac birth Oct. 9, 1794
to George Washington Bowen, the
plaintiff in the suit now pending.
Ballou was supposed to be the father
of the child, and took no pains to
relieve himself from the burden of
the unwelcome honor. Soon after
arriving at the dignity of maternity
Betsey left Providence and went to
perts unknown, leaving the child in
the charge of Ballon. Several years
later she returned, bringing with her
the body of a sea captain, whom it is
thought she had been living with dur
ing the interval. The deceased mar
iner was duly deposited in. the earth,
and his widow, or mistress, lingered
about the city for some time and then
went to New York, where, by means
never explained, she managed to mar
ry Stephen Jumel, a wealthy French
merchant. This was in 1804. In
1815 the Jumels went abroad and liv
ed in great splendor in Paris until
1822 ; when they returned to New
York somewhat poorer than when
they left, but still rich euough for all
reasonable purposes. A story is cur
rent that Madame J unit I attempted
to deliver a lecture in Providence on
the French Court, but being threaten
ed with a mob was compelled to
abandon her supremely impudent un
dertaking. Jumel himself died in
1835, and next -car Burr, aged 78,
married Madame married her for
her money, and contrived to waste
so much of it that in a very short
time she instituted proceedings for a
divorce. Wc believe the divorce was
never legally consummated, but the
parties ceased to live together, and
never met during the last two years
of Burr's life. Madame Jumel died
July 15, 1855. and the battle for ber
goods, chattels and real estate has
been going on ever since. St. Tahiu

Combats Amongst the Anelrnt Fraabs.
During the eleventh century the
means of justice among the Franks,
was a combat between the accuser
and the accused. I f a person was ac
cused of any misdemeanor, he was
granted permission to tako an oath
upon his innocence before the Court
of State, aud thus escape what was
kuown as "Private Veugcance." If,
however, there was not sufficient evi
dence of his iunocence, the accuser
had a right to annul the" vow of the
culprit by pushing his hand from the
shrine, or reliquary (on which it res
ted during his oath), aud challenge
him to mortal combat.
If the accuser was a woman, and
the accused a man, the laws of battle
ere as follows :
The man was to stand in a 'pit,
nearly up to his waist, and bo armed
with a club, hardened at the fire ;
while the woman, whose motions
were not confined, held a kerchief in
her hand, in which a stone weighing
from four to five pounds was tied.
According to the Augsburg City
Laws of 1276, and the Wurtzburg
Battle Code of 1447, the man was to
have a club twelve inches in length,
the thickness of two thumbs at the
end ; while the woman's weapon was
to be two fists longer, and to consist
of a stone weighing one pound, wrajt
ped in a kerchief.
Whenever a woman undertook
"wager of battle," she did so at the
peril of her life. For, if she should
uot be the victor, the aucused would
possess the power of having ber sen
tenced to death in court, on a charge
of false accusation. She would then
be burned alive in the same pit wherein
the man stood. This result was
looked upon as "God's Judgment;"
for the advantage a woman had over
a man, in position and weapon, usu
ally made Iter the victor.
Although the "Judgment of God,"
or ordeal, was discarded in 1250,
Judicial Combat was nevertheless re
tained. Not, indeed, in cities, where
its use was gradually discontinued ;
nor in the lower crimiual courts, but
principally in provincial courts of jus
tice, where cases of nobility were
tried.
Previous to this, the unconvicted
accused was not bound to tight, pro
vided he confessed his guilt. In such
a case, instead of forfeiting his life, he
was allowed to escape with the loss
of a hand, or on payment of a fixed
sum of money.
Wager of battle was used in the
fourteenth and fifteenth centuries in
the case of nobles who defied the
laws of court. Whoever succumbed
in ajudiciul combat forfeited not his
life, indeed, but his claims. In all
prevailing modes of this judicial com
bat, one rule held good. The accused
was allowed six weeks' grace, time in
which to practice with the prescribed
weapon. On the day of combat, the
weapons and clothing of the antago
nists were examined, and the specta
tors enjoinetl to observe the strictest
silence.
Only the seconds were allowed to
speak. The combat began at a given
signal. A blow previous to the starting-signal
or after the liual signal, for
feited the battle. In cases of distur
bance or disorder, the seconds inter- j
fered. Each combatant was allowed
to call for "time" twice during the
battle. If he called three times, or
thrice dropped his weapon, "he was
deemed to have lost.
Every combatant had four seconds,
one attvocate, one marshal oi arms,
one trainer (who instructed in the
mode of fighting, but whose voice
dur.-t not be heard during the battle),
and one monitor, who was pos'ed in
the arena, but was allowed to com
municate with the combatants only
through the advocate.
The dress usually consisted of
close-fitting trowsers, jacket and hood,
fastened with a leather strap, and cut
from one piece of gra' woolen cloth.
The shield (which, however, was not
worn in battle with a woman,) was of
wood and leather, covered with white
linen, and ornamented with a red
cross. Before the fight both com
batants drank St. John's wine, to
thwart all evil arts.
The days of judicial combat are
past and gone ; but the heroism of
those women who maintained their
dearest rights through the only legal
means allowed them, is a vivid page
in history.

of the Mobilier committees to the
effect that he had heard that Mr.

Durant had informed him of the fact.

having said he paid it, or that he
ever heard of such a thing. Mr.
Dickey is one of the executors of Mr.

the slightest truth in the matter. Mr

end perfectly applitd to all parts of the affected t.--tal
passages, aud the chambers or cavities com

ffennently exist, and front which the catarrhal dis
charge generally proceeds. The want of snccefg
in treahns Catarrh heretofore has arisen largely
from the Impossibility of applying remedies 1o
these cavities and chambers by any of the ordl
nary methods. This obstacle In the way of ef
rVetinsr cures is entirely overcome by the Invent inn
of the Donche. In nsin; this Instrument, the Fluid

pumping being required.) np one nostril tn a full
irently flowing stream totho highest portion of tha
