And olimh to kiss heaven'* face f
And there'a no life ao lone and low,
Bot strength may still he given,
Prom narrowest let on earth to grow
The Straighter up to heaven.

4SHEJ> AXD HEN MAXI-HF.—-"0. V. S.
R," of Fall River. Mass.. writes : • I
would like to know if putting wood-ash
es under hen-roosts spoils the value of
the hen-raanure or of the ashes ?
e*r. The heu manure does the ashes no
harm, but good. Nevertheless the ash
ee greatlv harm the .Iroppings from the
roost Put dry earth under the roosts
. and keep the* ashes by themselves.
Work over the manure when it is neces
sary to clean it out and you will have a
fine heap of rieh fertilirer. The ashes
would drive ofT ammonia—the moat val
uable part—from the manure, and per
haps suffocate the fowls besides.
THTMP IN HOGR —A Correspondent of
the Cincinnati Go.-WJc says ue has at
different times lost a considerable mini
her of hops who had that usually fatal
disease, the thumps, but in awery instance
where he made one or two applications
of pnre pine tar, by putting it in their
months and forcing it down their throats,
they recovered from this disease Anoth
er remedy is given by another corrrapon
eent as follow j : As soon as you find that
your hog has the thumps drench him
with half a pound of epsom salts dis
solved in one pint of water. One dose
will cure him if he is not too far gone
with the disease.
SPRAIN OP FETLOCK AND GOITRE.— The
horse should be kept as quiet as possi
ble. Iu all cases of severe strain, rest
is always the great desideratum It
must be remembered that all tendrons
and ligaments are very slowly repaired.
Six weeks after an ordinary sprain is,
as a rule, the shortest time at which
the horse is able to bear even moderate
exercise. Time shonld now be given for
the inflammation produced by the blis
ter to completely disappear. Until this
is effected no further treatment must
be attempted. You will then be able to
judge more accurately of the degree of
injury. If at the end ,f the time named
above the Injured parts remain thick
ened, or the horse continues lame, a
mild blister applied over for some dis
tance round the injured part may be
sufficient t restore it to health.
A STOOR FEEDING HOPPED, which is
proof agauift rats, can be made as fol
lows : Make a platform two or three
feet square, as the case may be; then
make A square box three inches high and
sixtom inches square ; naO it in the cen
tre cf the platform ; saw strips one and
one fourths indies square and eighteen
inches high for the posts ; na l strips of
boards, twp inches wide, to the posts at
the top. toweenre and steady them : then
take comzqpii lath, or any thin stuff, one
and oue-hgil? or two inches wide, and
nail them to the top and bottom, np and
down, a space of two inches be
tween eaclf slat, so that the fowl can get
at the feed.' The roof may be four-sqnare
and detached, so that it can lie raised
when reoaired to be replenished with
grain. Elevate the hopper on a post
about ihrea feet from the ground, which
makes it r#t and mice proof. The fowls
vriU soon learn to lean upon the platform,
and feed from the grain box between the
•lata.
W AITDFO HAT. —We have often seen
farmers turn their cattle from barn and
stable into the yard, then carry the hay
into different corners, and feed in piles
to their animal*. Did they ever think
now mnch is wasted by such idovenly
process ? Suppose a dozen cows ore
kept, and 250 lbs. are fed ont daily in
this way. We doubt not fully 10 per
cent, of this sum goes to waste and is
trodden under foot. Count this up dur
ing the feeding season, from Nov. Ist to
April Ist—five months—and here we
have the aggregate of a waste of 3,000
lbs., or If tons, sufficient almost to sup
port cne cow alone, and abundantly
sufficient, if roots, shorts, or meal are
fed as part of their food. Count up this
waste of 10 per cent, on the full value
of the hay crop of the country, and it
will reach over 81,000,000. This waste
is entirely unnecessary. Put up portable
racks, if you mast feed out-doors; and,
if the hay is thrown in there, every
sprig will be eaten and economized.
The stock can get at their feed very
handily, and will not trample it under
foot. We are also great believers in
shelter for animals. The more they are
exposed to cold weather, the greater will
he the consumption of food to snstain
the animal warmth. If they are kept in
a good, warm, sheltered location, tbey
will need leas food, and the farmer will
find his buildings a great economy.
Never fee*| out-doors in snowy, rainy,
or stormy weather ; for the waste will
be even greater than before.

A Tale of Sorrow.
Recently a returned Californian arrived
in Louisville and called at the residence
of one of his old arqnaiiitanoea He
is a mere shattered wreck of a man. His
Milled garments and neglected appear
mice, says a local paper, told an unmis
takable story. About five mouths ago
this man left Louisville for California,
and such was his success in the lsuid <>f
Gold, that he was enabled to return with
a gold watch and over a thousand dollars
in goiiL It was his intention to buy a
temperance paper in Louisville and de
vote himself to its management. But
when he reached the Ohio river, an old
habit reasserted itself, and when his
drunken debauch was over, by found
himself in Louisville, without his watch
and without a cent.
Nut muiiv war* ago this poor unfurl u
nato was th idolized jwuitor of II Epis
copal church in Louisville. Few divine*
had brighter pru*pecta,and it wo* thought
that he would make one of the most
brilliant pulpit orator* in the country.
But he yielded to temptation, became a
drunkard, and lost church, position,
friends and c\erything. .
The (Jood Templars tried to reform
him. He battles! with his tempter, and
for a time was successful. He bNtnea
temperance lecturer and created a sen
sation. Aguin he fell, and again he was
restored. He tried to practice law. but
gradually sunk lower and lower, until
his departure for the Pacific coast. lie

" Our fields are devastated !"
" What misery ; what a future awaits

" Pity ! Help !*'
"Give us corn for sowing !"
" Give ns bread for ourselves and our

STOCK RAISING IN COLORADO. —Stock
raising is an important industry in Col
orado. The best grazing lands arc along
the South Platte and its mountain tribu
taries. and the Arkansas. The latter
courses through Southern Colorado, and
along its valley the great herds are moet
lv pastured. They are driven north in
the Spring and shipped*to Chicago and
8t Louis, for keel. A late estimate
shows that there are now in the Terri
tory about 250,<X10 head of cattle and
75,000 sheep. During the past Fall con
siderable droves were shipped East. A
new business has just tiecn inaugurated
in Denver, that of shipping dressed beef
to Chicago, ihree hundred and fifty
head were slaughtered the past week and
packed into ten cars. The common box
cars were used, with frames set in for
hanging up the beef. About two car
load* of wool and ten of hides nre ship
per! East from Denver every month.

There is a geological survey of Domini

A later despatch from Versailles, *taU-s
that Favre was then discussing with lim

tiy the Germans are said to be as fol
; lows :
The forts to be garrisoned by Ger

The province of ('hani|iagnc to In

Paris to receive no garrison for its
protection—the city* to lie confided to
the National Guard*, who will uot be

The Germans will then negotiate the
terms of pence, and France w ill lie left
to reconstruct the Government.
These proisisitious are cumlutttod on
the side of the French a* too severe.

Utsinarck, the Latter insisted that tlie
surrender should be signed by the whole
Provisional Government. Favre re
plied that it would lie imp stsible to

terms, the French must rliooae Wtween

A Chicago Burking Waman.
A working woman write* to the Chi
cago 7Viftfe.- A few weeks since tlie
city pa|ier* relaUsl that a young lady had
Ireen arrested for i>wuiug a sewing ma
chine for which she had not yet paid.
She bought it ol one of the many firms
who advertise machines, promising to
furnish work to enable buyers to pay for
them. The offer seemed good on the
face, bnt the sequel showed too sadly
the actual fmndiileuey of the arrange
ment. I know the laily well. I);v by
day she would pass me in the hafls of
our lodging place, looking more like a
frightened ghost than anythiug earthly.
I visitevl her in her room. It was an in
ner room, lighted only from the halls,
such a* we often see in our large public
buildinga. The only furniture she pos
seaacd was her sewing inocliine and trunk.
Her l>ed consisted of a mattress placed
tiiKin either a box or chairs. A few
! chairs lielouging to the building had lieen
lent her, and completed the furniture of
this room, where she toiled earlv and
laU- at her machine. She Ibid me one
duy that, work a* hard as she could, she ,
could only make seventy-five cents |>er
(lav.
t know for some time her sole food
wna bread and milk, and that not too of
ten. Her work was tucking skirts, and
she usually managed to finish three a
day, working late. She showed meone.
It was tucked half way up the skirt, iu
linlf inch tucks, uud it seemed to me us
if every tuck ahotild have liccn marked
indelililv, "Onestep ue^rerdestruction."
For oo it was to her. When she found
health and strength foiling, and her face
grew thinner each day, and the look in
her eyes grew more wild and desperate ;
when her hope of anything In-tter failed,
she resorted to what many a i>oor proud
woman has done before— she jiawtied her
machine, trusting in Providence for the
help to enable her to redeem it. She
did not mean to defraud her creditors,
but they ascertaim-d the fact* at length,
and she wns arrested, imprisoned, and
suffered everything a proud, sensitive
nature could suffer under the circum
stances. A friend assisted her at this
point, an.l she was liberated on I mil.
The next we heard she had disappeared,
and what part of the earth holds lier
|KHir aching heart we do not know, lint
the memory of her white face will ever
haunt me, as I wish it could ever follow
and haunt those Shy locks of our city"
who wear out "human creatures" in
this unholy lust for gain.
THKHE is, or wss. recently living in
Penobscot Uonnty, Maine, n centenarian
negro, by the name of Van Meter. He
wss once called as a witness lie fore the
County Court, then held bv a rather aged
official. Judge Per ham. 'l'he lawyers on
each side, by questioning and cross-ques
tioning,had pumped the negro pretty dry,
and pot him into a state of extreme JH-T
--plexity. The Judge, in kindness, thought
no would interfere, and put some plain
questions for Van Meters' relief. The
negro, not appreciating the motive, and j
thinking the giuue of cross-questions wns
still to continue, broke out with a lieseeoh- !
ing look to the bench : "D jn't you meddle
nor moke in this business, old gramlsir ;
I've got as much HS I can do tend to these
men down here." The Judge subsided.
A ■wrrnr clergymsn, entering the house
of one of his elders, found the old man
unmercifully whipping one of his sons, a

defended himself, saying : "It was bost to

■oft." "Ay," said the pastor, "but that
don't hold here ; for the whacks were not
soft." The deacon let the boy go. '
