Dffvrv
Waen the north winds blow,
Shouting, shaking at ths oaeamenv
With a mighty woe—
Panting, sobbing through the darkness
Like s child that grieves ;
Moaning at the doorway—ereepinf
Low about the eaves.
But to-night the snow is lying
In t still moonKght--
0, my lore, whom rioath has hidden.
Visit tae to-night J
Can yon hear mo through the raptnree
Of the alibiing fields ?
Where the wnsto of rose and lily
Breath of Rdcn yields;
Where you walk with troops of spirit#,
Purged from eartav tears-
Can yon hear! For "one short vision
1 would linger years.
Come, my love, tho enow ia shining ;
Yon mav walk in white.
As upon the floor of Heaven,
If you come to-night.
Not a print of mortal treading -
It is chastely meet -
Yen may walk, nor fear the toiling
Of your geutie foci.
Come, the dawn will shin# upon it.
The great face of day.
Like a dream, in tears and sileoos,
li will melt away.
Farm Garden and Household.
RABBITS ARE TROUBLESOME, especially
when tho snow is on tho ground. Among
the various preventives blood has beam
found the easiest of application, and as
afficacious a* any. One sprinkling will
last all winter. If blood eaunot be ob
tained readily, rub the trunks of the
trees with liver or bloody meat, but this
is more troublesome.
CATTLE DISEASE IS MICKIOAE.—I am
troubled with a very curious cattle dis
ease ; the symptoms are these :—The
legs break out in small :urfy blotches;
rub the scurf off, and it leaves a raw
sore. In a few days the blotches spread
all over the whole body. The animals
grow poor very fast The eves are
heavy. The animals have good appetite
and eat wall. Anv information in regard
to the disease will W thankfully received.
REKOYIXO SHEEP PELT*.— Remove the
pelt from the sheep as soon as possible
after death, as every hour it remains on
the animal damages its leather proper
ties. Those pelts sell ths beat that have
ths feet and legs left on them as high as
the knee. Avoid cuttiug or tearing the
skin, and keep it as free from particles
of flesii or fat as possible. Lay it upon
the barn floor, and sprinkle it liberally
with ofdt, and if the time nan be spared,
rub the salt well in with the hand. Fold
tho skin with the flesh aids in. and lay it
away where it will not be molested" by
dog*, cats, or smaller vermin. As the
stock accumulates, if the weather is not
very warm, one pelt can be laid UDOII
the other, and very little room will be
required for their storage. In about two
weeks they will be sufficiently seasoned,
and ready to bang np for drying. If
bright, dry weather, but a few days in
the sun will be required. When dry,
they are ready for shipment to market,
•r can be piled, or what is better, hung
in some dry place to await ths coming cf
s buyer.
To CVBK SCHATCHWS. Somebody
wants to know how to cure the scratches
on liia horse. I will give a remedy I
used for years with universal success :
Take two pounds of Glauber salts, one
pound of sulphur, and one-quarter
pound of saltpatur ; pulverised all finely
together, and give one heaping table
spoonful once a day, thrown on the feed.
Now for the feet Take one pint of
neat's foot oil and one-fourth pound of
fine cut chewing tobacco, and simmer
them together. Strain out the tobacco
and buttle for use. Take Castile soap
and warm water, wash the parts affected
clean, and drv thoroughly before apply
ing the oiL 'if the ankles are much sore
it would be well to put clothes on them
to keep the air from them while they are
dry ing; when dry, anoint them well
with the oil for a few d .ys ; then wash
as liefore, dry well, and" apply the oil
again. If thoroughly applied, it will
effect a permanent cure. Keep the feet
clean, and scratches will not be likely to
return.
pAcrrnia ATFLE-OBCHAKDS.— No man,
in the review of the past season, can say
that the apple-trees have done bearing.
The vield has been bountiful, notwith
standing the great drought, and apples
have been a drug in many communities,
yet good winter apples are now bringing
remunerative prices—three dollars a
barrel and upwards. Thousands of bar
rels have been sent into New-England,
and are now selling in sight of farms
ojjee blessed with productive orchards.
The excuse for not planting has been
the failure of the old trees to bear. Why
should they bear, given over as they
have been to utter neglect for a whole
generation ? A tree can no more bear
fruit without nourishment than a cow
can give milk without fodder. There are
orchards in the older parts of the country
well fed and as productive as ever. There
was never more encouragement to plant
good varieties of the apple than now.
There is no danger of overstocking the
market with good, sound winter apples.
Even in this year of plenty, the lcng
keeping varieties will bring good prices.
Every farm should have its orchard.
THE HOOT DISEASE CI NEW ENGLAND.
—The cattle of New England are now
threatened with a new peril—the hoof
and mouth disesse, which has recently
been introduced from Canada, and has
been very destructive in England. Says
the Boston Traveller There have al
ready been some cases of tbe disease at
Brighton, it having been brought there
by beef cattle coming to that market A
terinary surgeon in Boston has been
called to Connecticut, where he found a
herd recently, numbering aixtv cattle, all
of which have been attacked by the dis
ease within a few days. The owner of
the herd, about one week ago, bought a
cow of a drover, which is supposed to
have come from Canada. The animal
was then slavering and frothing at the
mouth, and within three days nearly ev
ery one of the whole herd was affected.
Some of them are already dead, and the
hoofs have come off othere. The blood
seems to be changed in its character, and
the rapid spread of the disease at the
hoof is doubtless owing in part to imper
fect circulation. The flesh resembles
boiled meat, and is wholly unfit for food.
The odor from the diseased animals is
terribly offensive, and the disease makes
itself known by unmistakable signs, the
first indication being the frothing at the
mouth, which is partly open, with the
nostrils closed, the joints stiff, an unwill
ingness to move, and an occasional
stretching backward of the hind leg.
WIRTEBRSO SHEEP.— Gibson Burns, of
Red Stone, Fayette County, Penn.,
wrote asking whether it was better dur
ing the winter to confine sheep to yards
and shelter, or to give them a field in con
nection with the shelter, and allow them
to graze at large ? He has practiced the
latter method for some ten years, always
endeavoring to have a good coat of grass
on the field, and he thinks he thus saves
largely in rough feed, yet the increase is
small during the cold weather. " The
post faH," he says, " I had concluded to
pen my flocks to feed for April market,
when I saw that Warren LelanU didn't
pen his geese, and why should I pen my
wethers ? for all our grandmothers pen
ned and stuffed geese, while few penned
and fed sheep. And Warren Letand is
held up as high authority, while our
grandmother's methods are 'gone where
the woodbine twineth.' But what I wish
to know is, whether any of our corre
spondents have tried the two methods,
and are able to give definite results ?
John Johnston gives the yarding process,
bnt does not say that he ever tried the
other. The meat question is a very im
portant one, ad all the light that can be
thrown on it will be gladly received."
Mr. Reads said that all exfercise in fat
tening animals is a waste of material.
They should be kept quiet—the less
exercise and annoyance they have, the
better. Sheep should, therefore, be
kept in dry stables, having ready access
to pure water, and, if fed with abundant
ana proper food, they will do best. Mr.
Curtis said that Mr. Jurian Winne, s
very successful sheep raiser, had found
that the sheep ha kept on the second
floor of his barn, where they saw nobody
Wtrt their feeder, did best.

only one wife. He has known, he says,
full brothers and sisters forced to marry
by Brigham Young. He had seen it
stated in some of the papers that Young
might soon die. He looked good for
50 years longer, and tbe writer believed
it to be from his strict temperance sinoe
early youth. Brigham Young's wives
were compelled to do manual labor "to

A letter (ram Coascl soys; As I ait

l'Oiaaian soldier ia ixxeung my window.
Almost every dav three or four of these
mournful prooosaionsmarch by, wending
their way to the spot where soldiers and
citizens idike "sleep well" "after Ilk'*
fitful fever" is at an end.
Even iu death, rank, which the living
so sedulously prosferve and respect,
asserts its power. Its splendors are dis
played to their full e*tcut for the lofty,
while its favors are totally withheld from
the obscure.
The mortal remains of the common
soldier nr- nnfwanl in a plain board cuflu,
which is enveloped in a black jwill. and
thus, borne upon the shoulders of six
comrade*, is oonveyed to its dual resting
place. Upon the coffin-lid rest tlie hel
met and sabre, the former burnished
brightly, and encircled with a wreath of
immortal]o*, the latter returned forever
to it* scabbard. bound with a white
ribbon and garlanded with flowers. Two
squads of soldiers in full unifonu lead
tlie van ami bring up the rear. Then
arms are shouldered instead of reversed,
as we have tiiem. They inarch to three
or four iuurticd drum*. Between the
two squads are the twelve bearer*, who
relieve each oilier al intervals, tlie officia
ting clergyman, and occasionally a few
frit-mis of the dcctoiaed in civil attire.
The cortege of an officer of rank,
however, is formed by the garrison of
tlie town, led by its fine military baud.
There axe stationed in this tow a at pre
sent tlie entire Eightieth ihruasian, or
Hirst Hessian infantry regiment, a
battalion of the Eighty-third, or Thin I
Hessian infantry regiment, a battery of
; tlie Eleventh artillery, and a battalion of
huxzar*. 1 saw the eutire force recently
escorting the catafalque of a Major of
Cuirassiers of a noble Hessian Family to
his grave, and they made a most impos
ing spectacle, the infantry and tlie
brilliancy of the cavalry and artillery
contrasting linsly tlie one with the
other. In addition to the military esoort,
the catafalque was attended by a multi
tude of the hired mourners in their
voluiuiuous cloaks and cooked hats, who
are paid to attend funerals in this country.
The burial casket, elaborately carved
from ok, was richly decked with gar
lands, and ribbons twiued about the side
arms of the deceased, and green boughs,
strange emblems for tlie warrior's bier,
lent their grace and verdure to the grim
surroundings of death. The riderless
charger was led in the rear. An im
mense tram of carriages, many of them
empty, and people on foot, completed
the procession. Tho female relatives
and friends were not seen in the proces
sion, which is eonqxisod entirely of men,
horses and vehicles. Indeed, women
alw ays remain at home on such occasions,
in this country and in Europe generally.
The deaf ears of tlie dead soldiers w ere
greeted by the eustomary salute, and the
j grand yet solemn strains of one of
Bee tho \ en's funeral marches added their
mournful charm to the ceremony.
I n thinking of this war we are apt to
picture to ourselves universal jov iu
Germany and universal sorrow in 1- ranee,
but there is deep and wide-spread lamen
tation in Germany, tlie more eonspicious
from tlie rejoiciug with which it is con
trasted and surrounded. The people
were measurably prepared for the first
losses of war ; tremendous though they
were, they purchased brilliant success.
Then came a season of comparative
quietude, dtiriug which hopos of a cessa
tion of hostilities were constantly rising,
for the victories which had been achieved
seemed to point to this as a speedy
result. But now winter is here, and tlie
' brave boys are still away in France
enduring the severest hanlshiue, aud
being cut off by the hundred. This is a
I severe trial to tlie jieople, who had hoped
' to celebrate their Christmas festival with
the fathers, brothers, and husbands
whom the hard fortunes of war had torn
: from them, once more at home.
Hare You fceeu M'Lauglilin 1
I mean to tell you tho true story of the
M'Laughlin affair which was fuuuy iu
conception aud provoked no ill will.
Mike Walsh, the noted politician of New
York, was standing in Broadway, con
versing with a gentleman of respectable
position ui society. A most miserable
wretch, uPthe last stages of filth and des
titution. rags on his bodyaml carbuncles
on his nose, came up, spoke to Mike,
shook hands and walked on.
" Why, Mr. Walsh," saiil his frieiul,
" how can yon keep such associations ?
Don't you know that tiiey detract from
your resjjeetability, even ?"
Mike answered*, with a great show of
indignation—" Why, don t you know
who that is ? It is M'Laughlin. He is
the J>est known man in town. You may
turn up your nose; but I'll bet yon a
basket of champagne that he'll be more
sought for during the next two days than
anv one else."
His fri nd laughed, and accepted the
bet. Mike started off, and the first
friend he met, he asked—" Have you
seen M'Laughlin
" What M'Laughlin ?"
" I don't know. He conies from Culi
forma, and he has a package for you. I
don't know what is in it It's very
heavy."
Now this was in the height of the gold
fever. Every one nearly had some friend
or kinsman at the gold fields, and every
one expected a fow unggctsas specimens.
So this man just saying—" I'll net it was
from Ben Hooper," asked whore M'-
Laughlin was to be found.
"I don't know," was the answer.
" He said he was going to the Pewter
Mug."
Mike made for the Pewter Mug by a
short cut and put the Widow Lynch 011
the soent. She was to tell applicants he
hod been there, but had gone over to the
City Hall. In the same way, he went to
all the leading drinking saloons and pub
lic places, sending all the acquaintances
he had on the same bootless errand, al
ways to find that Mac had gone to some
other drinking plaoc, and thence to an
other, and so on ad infinitum.
The whole town Was exercised about
M'Laughlin and his mysterious package.
All day Friday it was moderate ; but at
length the " sell" was comprehended by
the original victims, who proceeded to
take in all their own circle of acquain
tance. Till after midnight the drinking
places were thronged bv anxious search
es after M'Laughlin. Every one, on re
flection, remembered him—some could
describe him very accurately, though
these descriptions were very diverse;
and some of the seekers went home quite
in liquor to renew the search the next
day.
So they did, and though the Sunday
papers exposed the trick, the excitement
continued during Monday, and only died
out on Tueeday. Theft was even a green
victim or two during the remainder of
the week.
Mike friend paid the bet There
are men now alive who believe they have
been swindled by M'Laughlin, who was
entrusted with gold for them by some
unknown friend, and successfully eluded
pursuit. j
WHA Tires REPORTS. —The number of
places of observation of the Weather
Signal Service is increasing, and has now
reached thirty. The usefulness of the
signals lias been fully demonstrated
sooner than wns expected, and many
times the cost of establishing the ser
vice has already been saved to the coun
try. Along the Lakos the officers can
now confidently predict the approach
and violence of a Btorm from twelve to
twenty-four hours in advance of its ar
rival. The office has had evidence that
the timely warning given of the coming
of one of the rooent great storms on the
Lakes saved property to the value of
81,000,000.

The State bonded debt is reduced to
$284,603. The total realization from
real and personal property for 1870 was
$95,405,397. The Echool fund has been

French Aml German Siege Artillery.
A military correspondent of the Lon
don 'Jim** supplies some InUrmtinn
information u* to the relative power* of
Attack and defence of PWi* lie
MVS :
The guns mounted on the fort* of Pari*
art* quite equal in power to an* that the
besieger* could bring opposite to them.
If the German batteries were to bom
bard the city it could only lie after 1 IKY -
ing reduced all the fort* within easy
range, otherwise the batteries tiring
against the city would be cxpoaed to
boinliardment in their turn from pertua
neut forts with bomb-proof cover at a
comparatively short range. To reduce
one fort might be an easy task if the fort
stood aloue; but each member of the
encircling guardian* of Paris supports,
aud is iu its turn supported by others ;
so that, were one to fall, no large force
could inarch through the gap thus made
without bring exposed to the concen
trated Are of uiauy heavy gun*, such guns
us have never Wen used in war uutil
uow, if we except the isolated rounds
tired from the Affomlatore during the
battle of Lias*.
The forts are armed with heavy ship
guns, breech-loading all of them, made
of cast iron, and strengthened by ateel
hoops round those portions of th piece
most exposed by tlie shock of lire explo
sion. The guns are rather untrustworthy
iu strength, but, under the present cir
cumstance*, there is Unie enough avail
able to take anv precaution* that may W
thought advisable. 80 far aa is known,
the gun of highest calibre now iu Paris
has a bore measuring more than teu
inches across its diameter. The proiec
tilc weighs little short of 600 pounds, but
a comparatively large charge cannot be
used on account of the duuger of burst
ing, unless the Russian plan of burying
the piece in the earth be tried, as men
say it has Wen lutely. There are rumors
of a wonderful new gun of huge dimen
sions found accidentally in Pans, ami
soon to be used against Versailles. There
is no doubt that a guu can be made, ami
has been made in England, capable of
such work.
Tha nearest approach to Veraaillee
trorn the French sile has Wen made by
a gunboat, which hn* come clone up to
the bridge nt Sevres. The distune,, u*
tlie crow fliea u less than five miles,
about 8,500 varda English artillerists
have not, with aorno exceptions, aimed
at building guns lor extraordinary
ranges; yet 8,500 yards, the distance
between the French gunboat and the
royal quarters at Versailles,has been more
than attaiued over and over ngain by
English guns, and I believe lately by
French guns for the forts. An expe
riental Armstrong 32-pOunder, weighing
I only 20 cwt. with a charge of 6 lbs. and
; an "elevation of 38 deg. sent its projeetila
9,153 yards. The range was carefully
measured. Mr. Whit worth states that
his little 3-pounder, fired at Southport,
attained a range of 9,088 yards, The
long exjierimental 7-inch gun of six tons,
designed by Mr. Lyuall Tliomus, with
25 list of powder, profiling a allot of
275 lbs.. and fired with aa elevation of
' 87$ dog., ranged 10,075 yards. There
have l>een several other lustanoes of long
ranges, and there wouhl be more but for
the general useleaaneaa of firing at ilis
taucea where no aim can possibly be
taken.
Hortlrultural School for Women.
Among the good tilings iuangerated
by the Woman's Club, in Boston, says
Old and jVVic is the Horticultural School
for Woman. The plan was for a con
siderable time, on paper only ; but the
outlines drawn, the l>est authorities
were consulted for the filling out. Two
years elapsed after the proposition,
before an attempt was made to realize it;
and it was not until last Spring, when it
seeincd necessary to make tlio intention
a fact or to drop it, that a local habi
tation was given to the name.
The place hired for the use of the
school (at a rent of $1,200 a year). is on
the shore of "Baptist Ponu," Newton
Outre, Mass., near the depot of the
Hartford and Erie Railroad. The house
is in good condition, warmed by steam,
and is capuble of accommodating eigh
teen scholars. The greenhouse, sixty
by tweuty-one feet, has a new addition
built in a wont %comanhke manuer, the
boards being nailed on, and the glazing
done, by the girls. Thin is seventeen
feet square. The whole enclosure con
tains 3,500 pLmtj: all of whioh, after
bring set, have been potted once, and
most of them twice, involving a pvut
amount of wrk. Since the middle of
July, the taffio has been abundantly sup
plied with vegetables from tlio garden.
The hour for breakfast is half-post
seven ; the next half hour is free,
thence, ti 1 noon, work in the garden or
green-house by one and all. From one
to two is the leisure hour. From two to
three, except Saturdays, a lecture is de
livered in the school-room. The black
board is used in each lecture, the draw
ings being plants variously pruned.
Etch pupil takes notes of the lecture,
and makes a record also of every day's
work; thus obtaining a most useful
hand-book for future Summers. From
three to four there is a class in bouquet
making, flower-packing, or some other
department, iu which all can be instruct
ed at once. From four, in Summer,
until nearly dark, the out-of-door work
is continued, with an interruption, at
six, for tea.
" How do you spend your svenings?"
is a question that has been asked those
ladies so often, and with so evident a
suspicion of yawning, that they desire
an explicit statement to be made. The
necessary materials were not, however,
gathered for this; but the impression
conveyed of the evening hours was so
pleasant an to awaken the desire, had it
been practicable, to sec for myself. They
do, however, confess reluctantly since it
is not in the line of their profession, to
the need of a piano.

The last steamer from China brought
only Bixtv-nine Chinese. For some time
post the "departures of these people from
this port have been more than the arri
vals. The number resident in this city
l is estimated to be less by 2,000 than it
was a year ago ; and the number in the
whole State is probably not over 37,000;
whereas a year or two ago it was from
40,000 to 50,000. There has been an
1 excess of arrivals over departures for 1870,
I thus far, of about 7,000 ; but this excess
has not been concentrated in San Fran
cisco, while death and immigration to
other States ami Territories have reduced
the total aumber in California consid
erably.—San Prandteo Paper.
A flood and Safe Investment.
The West Wisconsin Railroad Com
pany now offer a limited amount of their
first mortgage seven per cent, gold-boar
i ing bonds free of Government tax. In
terest on these bonds is paid semi
annually in gold. The bonds are sold
at 90 eents, with accrued interest.
All the Company's property, including
156 miles of road; a magnifioent
land grant of over one million acres of
fine timber and farming lands ore in
cluded in the mortgage, making it not
only secure, but one of the safest invee
ments now before the public. The road
will be built to St. Paul this season, and
the latter city has taken one-half of the
bonds neceesary to complete the road.
It connects witu the Chicago and North
western, Milwaukee and St Paul, Illi
nois Central, Green Bay and Mimiflmppi
Railroads, and offers an outlet for the
great railroad system of St. Fatil and the
Northwest, making much the shortest
and most direct route between St Paul,
Chicago, Milwaukee and the Earft. 125
miles of road is now running and the
iron is on hand for the bahnce. The
net earnings of the road already more
than nay the interest on the bonus. The
road nas oeen built economically and if
carefully managed. Its offices are ojKn
at all times to the investigation of the
public, and every assurance is given
that no better investment is offered than
in the gold-bearing, seven per cent
bonds of the West Wisconsin Railroad
Company. The Chamber of Commerce
of the city of Milwaukee by resolution
and report strongly recommended the
; bonds as an investment, and the officers
of the West Wisconsin Railroad aa reliable
men and thorough railroad managers,
j Bonds may be had at the followiug

pamphlets showing the condition of the
same may be obtained: Towers, Giddings

young lady who called to have a back
tooth out, that she ought to part with
all her front teeth and have a uew aet.
The lady refused to gratify him. Aa

back to coiiaciouHueHS by the pain she
discovered, to her amazement and indig
