A HORSR DISEASE.— Within the l**t few weeks a very fatal and alarming epi demie lnw broken out among the heroes of New York City. It is thought to be the disease known as the cerebro-spirnl Meningitis. Yet some veterinary snr-; Cn* dispute the vrmptoins. It "is evi lly a disease of the vertebrae, AM tiie hinder parte of the animal are flret , affected (paralyzed 1, the affection gradu ally Advancing along tlie Wok to the brain, when the fore parts also give war. The home continues to oat a* though in good health, but if allowed to lie down he never gets op. Therefore rs s*ran a the malady shows itself, the animal is supported by bi\uid canvas supporters iiMd under the abdomen, just allowing lis feet to touch the stable n.xM\ If this eonrae is punuol recovery ia pusiblr. There is uo treatment yet discovered, j that can be relied upon. We hear that the same disease has manifested itself in sections of the country, and that many j farmers have lost some of their finest stock by it. * FRCTT GARTEN. —ought to lie mulched now, if not already dona, to prevent the growth of weeds "as well as to keep the fruit free from dirt If the hay or straw used in mulching can be run through a hay cutter, it forms a better material than wheu aacut.

Hub off all other bads and keep the single shoot tied up to a stake. Yonn bearing lines should not rijieu more than two bunches to a shoot, as the quality of the fruit will then 1* much better. "Wherever mildew mokes its appearance use sulphur applied by a bellows. fwrrmfo ought to bo heavily mulched, i as it aaves time in hoeing during the busy season. rries. —Allow only three or four i canes to grow to each stool. unless it is desired to propagate the variety. Bi*wJkherries. —Canes must uot be al lowed to grow more than four or five feet ; the pinching induces the growth of side shoots, and those sbonld l>e stopped when eighteen inches in length. TIMMA HAT is much more valuable when eut early than wheu permitted to become ripe. If seed is needed, leave a portion for that purpose ; but the main crop for hay should be cut when in blos som. At this period the plant contains . much gum, sugar and starch, which later become changed into dry. harsh, nanatritions, woody fiber. For this roa ixm, cut early in July. There is a very prevalent idea that the blossom causes the hay to be dusty, and injurious to horoee fed on it Heaves are said to be caused by it Tins is an error. Any dust made bv the dried blossoms must of necessity be shaken off during the handling of the bey, and if it were not so. the dust itself "would be harmless j unless taken into the lungs, which con tinued, of course, would lie hurtful. These is no necessity for the hay to be fed a such a manner as to allow this. The injurious dust is that caused by damp and mold. This is hurtful, in a highiflegn e. and care must- be taken to have the liav put in the burn free from moisture. Timothy hav is very easily cure*! ; we have cut it in the forenoon, i and had it well and safely housed before night by having it well-spread and turn ed during the day. Hay so gotten in will ooinc out green and fragrant, will spend well, and sell well. It is a common idea Timothy is hard on the land. When permitted to ripen its seed, this is true, as of any other grain crop ; but when cut | early, is not exhaustive. Cutting early, spares the soil, gets the hay out of the way of the wheat harvest in good time, and gives the fanner more nutritious feed for his stock. Try it—Hearth d" Home. HLNTS FOB THE SEASON.— In its hints for the season the A'/ricutmrisi says : Plaster or Gypsum may still be sown with advantage on elover, corn, peas, etc. hen the aowiug costs more than the plaster, put on two or three bushels per acre ; but when plaster is dear, we should not sow more that a bushel per acre. Beaut. —Drill in the beans on good, clean land, or on clover aod, 2j feet apart, and 10 inches apart in rows, and aav I tieans in a hill"; or drill in the 1 >eans 2or 3 inches apart m the rows. The latter plan sometimes gives the largest yield, but it is more work to hoe and pull the crop. Beans may be sown as late as the middle of the month, but the earlier in the month the better. The Dairy. —Let everything abont the dairy be done with unvarying regularity and with scrupulous cleanliness. Tol erate no noise, harsh words or rough treatment. Never hurry or run the cows, or excite them in any way. Milk writh a steady, unceasing fiow, and leave not a drop in the udder. Next to liberal feed, pure water and dean milking, me place in importance, petting the cow*. A dairy farmer must be a gentleman. And the cows like to see a kind-hearted, , sensible woman in the yard or stable at milking time ! Let every dairy utensil be scalded every day. Mere washing in warm water will not answer. The water most be boiling hot. Nearly all the trouble of the butter not coming, bail flavor, etc., arises from ignorance of or inattention to the necessity of having the water boiling hot. A djrty vessel 1 dipped m trailing hot water for a minute or two is far better than one that has ] • been washed perfectly clean in merely warm water, but not scalded. The hot water penetrates into every pore or crack, and destroys the germs of the fungus that produces the mischief. Sheep. —Tag all that need it, and wash the sheep us soon as the water is warm, but not earlier. Attend to the washing yourself and recollect that it will be bet ter fat least for the sheep) to allow the washers more coffee than whisk v. A little grain for a week or ten days before and after washing, will do much to pre vent the sheep from taking cold— ami it will start the oil sooner after washing, and they can be sheared .earlier. If a!' shearer is rough with the sheep, kick him out of the barn—figuratively, of : course. Fat, long-wooled sheep should lie fastened a few hours before shearing, j i Look .out for foot-rot On the first symptom of lameness, separate the lame sheep, and dress the feet of the whole flock with a strong solution of carlralic acid. There is nothing better than car bolic acid to cure the foot-rot and noth ing so good as a preventive. Lamb* troubled with ticks should bo dipped in a weak solution of carbolic acid—suy a gallon of the crude arid to twenty gal lons of water. j <B==H=== * PALPITATION OF THE HEART— There are probably few persons who have not at some time in tneir lives had, if not , for more than a moment, palpitation of the heart. The disease is dependent , on over-excitement of the nerves of this , organ. Usually it lasts bnt a few moments, , bnt cases are on record of its continuing I, eight days at the rate of 160 beats to the i \ minute. Where not caused by disease of . the heart or its valves, it is not a danger ous affection. The best treatment is per- ] feet quiet and composure in a recumbent \ posture. If it continues long, apply hot compresses over the region of the heart, changing them often. To prevent tbeir ] occurrence, avoid over-exertion, tight - a othing, nervous excitement, a crowded j j or unventilated room, and above all, load- f ingtha stomach with indigestible articles of food. "We have known many instances j of palpitation cured by adopting plain, : simple habits of life. , M THE family of Warren Wolf, of Lon- donville, Ohio, ware carried down an < embankment 75 feet in height by a fright-, t ened team.

The following ha* lioen issued from the General Register office in London : Fp to the present date tho population of London ha*, since the year 1801, boon CKtimatevl tor *ll purpose*.

On an average there are 2,669 persons to a square mile, and, a* only a certain numWr of jssiple live on a given area, it traepme evident that the usual hypo- j thesis of increase in a gaomntricol pro-' gression would no Kmger apply to the growth of Loudon, and in consequence the sorie-s calculated in 1865 which has duoe liecn UM-*1 in weekly tallies, and of which the number cited above i one.

I'tilizing Coal Bust for Fuel. A correspondent of the Sei<mtijk Amer icon write*: It is a well-known fact tliut coal, either bituniiiiou* or anthracite, pr*Mluc*>* in minipg, breaking, ncreening, and hand- j ling, an uinoiuit of dust, commonly known as stack coal, amouuting on an average, to fifty per cent, of the rend lirodiiL-tiou, thu* causing a considerable >wa to the parties engage*! in mining, a* but a small jmrtion of this du-t coal, and that only of the hitiuuiuuu* cool, i* ne*sl ed for bla*ksinith purposes, while the anthracite slack is entirely useless.

The amount of this waste cannot lie ha* than fifteen million* of tons, aud every year add* to the rapidly increasing dirt bank. In France, in Germany, iu Belgium, and in England, the slu k of the hitu minons coal has IMM-U converted into lunqw or cake* of different aires and shn|Hi bv mixing it with read tur.

Tlie Ithacau gives the following account of the flogging of a little girl by a brnt iidi school master in tin* village of Ithaca: "Onre* the IUKMIH had occasion ten*- !

A plant in ' Ceylon ltn* a Singular provision for the distribution of its se* ito. These are contained in a circular head which is oomposcd of spiukelike divisions that radiute in all directions, making a ilia- j meter of eight or nine inches. When j the seeds are ripe for distribution, threw* spherical lieails with their elastic siiine*. are blown awnv by the winds and roll swiftly over the level shore for miles, ; dropping weds as they go. If tliey e.nne to water they float eusily, and their spines serve us sails, HO that Ihty can cross estuaries. A plant valuable for taking root in the sand and protecting the shore* from erosion is thus widely j distributed, us it could not be in any other way in a barren, birdle*s region. ALKALI IN WATER AND LAND.—J. N. Bloan, of Sedgwick, Kansas, H*ked the Farmer's ('lull if there wus any cheap and practicable method of removing alkali from water impregnated with it. Nobody know of any tuple way of doing it. Mr. Dewey, of the Paciffr Rural Press —who was present as a visitor— said that the California fanners found that planting sugar lieetsin alkaline soils improved them, and made them flt for grain. Mr. Whitney said this was easily explained from the property of the soda salta to circulate through the cellular 1 tissues of plants without assimilation, b> which allusion had been riade iuthe dis cussion ulraut applying salt to land. He believed it was not considered Bafe to feed roots grown in alkali land to cattle.

Notwithstanding this, adds the correspondent, the Hamojedes arc ' not without abilitii-s ; some of them 1 have proved excellent men of business, ! and there is now aSamojedcnhip captain 1 on the White Sen who knows bow to j read and write, and sjienkes the Russian, Danish, German, English, and French j languages. Tho Samojedes have no < national songs or traditions, and if, as ia | all but certain, the race should die out, it would leave nothing behind it to re call it* existence.

While she was enjoy ing tiie literature of a tombstone, she heard a lot of small boys saying. "That's her." And she thought, "Such is fame." Congratulating herself thnt even the children of the land knew her, she was accosted by an urchin, who said, " Say, aint you the old woman that walks np on the wire at the circus tent to-morrow ?" Susan left that vicinity double soon. SET ASIDE. —A divorced woman in Boston has had the decree set aside, having shown that it was obtained by frand.

How ta Nee Ho* a a Well. i, It is uot generally known, says the l.aucaAtcr (Penu.) how easy a matter it is to explore the liottom of a i well, cistorn, or putid of water by the use of a common mirror. When the sun ia shining brightly hold a mirror ao that the reflected rava of light will fall into j the water. A bright spot will Ire seen at i the bottom, ao light as to show the aiuallewt object plainly By this means me have examined the bottom* of wells fifty feet deep, wheu half-full or more of water. The amallest *lr*w or other ob jects can be perfectly seen from the sur face. Iu the same way oue nan examine the bottom of the ponds and rivers, if the waters be somewhat agitated by w iud* or rapid tnotiou. If a well or ria torn be under cower, or shaded ly a building ao that the sunlight will uot fall near the opening, it t* only neoe*- sary to emulov two mirrore, using one to reflect the light to the opening, and an other to reflect it dowu into the wafer. Light tnar be thrown fifty ur a hundred yard* to tire precise spot desirable, and then downward. We liMYe uwd the mirror with auccona, to reflect the light around the Ixmae to a shaded well, and also to carry it from a south window through two rooms and then into a cistern under the north side of the house. Half a dozen reflections of light may lx- made, though each mirror diminishes the bril liancv of the light. Let any oue not fauufiar with the method, try the experi ment. It will perhajMt reveal a moss of sediment at the bottom of the well thai . has been little thought of, bnt which may liave Ix-en a frigtitfnl noaroe of (lis oase by its decay in tiie wati".

Tbe father received a bullet through tbe cheat and fell into the arms of hi* son, who was mortally wounded. 'lt was our destiny," *id the father, aud they Willed dead together to the bottom of the barricade. I witnessed a hideous B|<ectacle ie one of those lofty, narrow streets described by Hterue in bis Srliin**Uil Journey. In this street, where there aas not room for a cart to turn, a kind of military tribunal had been established, which was dealing with prisoners in the most summary monuer. I was just in time to see one youth, accused of Ix'ing the Secretary of Jules Voiles, shot, and bis body waa allowed to remain in the gut ter while another respectable-looking young man was examined. He was ac cused of wishing to poison the treops and set fire to a house. The evideuoe was flimsy, but the soldiers, with their blood up, and a dastardly mob, required victims, not justice. The prisoner pro tested his iuuooeucc, but the cry was "Let him die, he belonged to the Com- j mune." He showed hi* papers, and his pockets were rifled, hut nothing com promising was found. However, he was dragged hither and thither Ix-tween those who wished to shoot him on the if pot and others who were not quite ao lusty. Three times the uufortuuste man wa* pushed against the sail to be •hot— the soldier* raising their Chame pot* and telling the crowd to retire—and ' three times lie managed to obtain a j fresh hearing, and in the end he was led off to tiie Town Hall to le examined.

All this time the seal wa* swimming to ( snd fro in the river, no doulrf doing his share at shad fishing. To keep clear of him the shod must have been driven away from their accustomed tracks, aud hence out of reach of the fishermen. But the verv day after the capture of their enemy they returned to their old haunts, where the fishermen took them in large number*, at once giving u* abundance and at low prices. F.MH,T H.
