A RKERRSHIN-I SL'MMKR DRINK.—A
friend states that the most thirst-quench
ing drink that he found during the
unusually hot Hummer was strong cold
black tea, to which lemon jniee and
sugar were added in quantitira to writ
the taste. We have often use*! cold or
iced tea, and found it an exceedingly
grateful Hummer beverage.
A HORSE'S PETITION TO Hts DRIVER.—
Up the hill whip tne not; down the hill,
hurnr me not; in the stable, forget me not;
of hay and corn, rob me not; of eleau wa
ter, stint me not; with sponge and brush,
neglect me not ; of soft, dry lx-d, deprive
me not ; if sick or cold, chill me not ;
with bit and reins, oh ! jerk me not ;
and wheu you are angry, strike me not.
CARE or a HOBSK.— If caught in a
shower, and yon get vonr hat wet, brush
it before it is dry. Ami so of the home.
When he comes in wet with }iersptration
smooth his hair with a roarer hrn.*h—a
common broom is bettor than nothing—
"n the direction you wish it to lie when
He is dry. The animal will feel better,
and it will be ouly half the trouble to
clean him the next time he needs it.
PIE-CHERRIES — To BOTTLK. - Htone
theui. allowing the jniix- to drop with
the oherne*. To n pound of fruit add
nearly or quite a half pound of brown
sugar. Is-t them stew until the sngnr is
nxlncixl to a syrup, or until they hxk a
little glazeil. Now bring to a lively Ix-il.
aud they are ready to bottle. Remem
ber the invariable rule for all bottled
fruit : seal quickly while txiiling hot.
CORN TOE SOILING. —SeIect land near
the barn-yard, and make it as rich as
possible. It can not lx- too rich. Never
sow this iWop broadcast. Pn-j-are tlie
laud, and mark it one way as for other
corn ; then drill in the soi-d, at the rate
of four bnsliels per acre ; or if you have
no drill, plow out a shallow- furrow, and
sow the seed in the furrow. Keep the
laud clean aud mellow by the frequent
use of the caltivator.
RED RASPKKRKT YINKGAR.— Put a quart
of good vinegar over two quarts of ber
ries. Let them stand over night, strain,
and ponr the juice over two more quarts
of berries | atau-l over night, then strain
again. Trt every piut of juice allow a
pound of white sngar. Let it iw
gently to a boil, and bottle for use in
small-necked bottles. One tabb-spoon
fnl to a glass of ice-water makes a re
freshing summer lx-verage, and is also
excellent fnrthvalid*.
SALT FOB TOE OORN-G RRO. —The corn
crop ban several formidable enemies to
contend with, and among them is the
grub, whidrvumetimes literally destroys
whole tielihwir damages the crop serious
ly. One of the best and most convenient
remedies -perhaps the very best ever
suggested—is the application of salt as
soon as the plant makes its appearance
above giwtmd, prepared and used in
this way i Take one part of common
salt and three parts of piaster or gypsum,
and apply about a tahlespoonful around
each hill. It will be found to be a sure
protection. The mixture should not
come in contact with the young plants,
as it may destroy them. This method
lias been tried over and over again by
some of the beat farmers of Pennsylvania,
lh'laware and Jersey, and when properly
allied has never faded to be perfectly
successful. We hope ou r farmers, who
have reasons to fear the depredations of
the grub the present season, will try this
mixture, leaving a few alternate rows
of corn without the salt, and com
municate to us the result. The appli
cation also acts as a first-rate fertilizer,
and will more than pay for itself in bene
fiting the crop.— Girrmautotrn Tebyrrrph.
THE COW'S INTELLIGENCE. —That cows
have memory, language, signs," and the
means of enjoying the pleasant associa
tion, combining for aggressive purposes,
have been recognized, but scarcely to
the extent the subject merits. Traveling
in Italy, many yean ago. we visited some
of the large dairy farms in the neighbor
hood of Ferara. Interpersed among
much of the low lying, unhealthy land,
remarkable for the prevalence on it of
very fatal forms of anthrax in the sum
mer season, are fine undulated pasture
lands, and the fields are of great extent.
We happened to stop at a farm house
one fine autumn afternoon when the
cows were about to be milked. A herd
of over one hundred were grazing home
ward.
The women took their positions with
stool and |>ail close to the house, and as
the cows approached, names were called
out which, at first, we thought, were
addressed to the milkmaids. Rosa, Flo
renza, Giulia, Sposa, and many names,
which were noted at the time, were called
out by the overseer or one of the women,
and we were astonished to sec cow after
cow cease feeding or chewing the cud
and make direct, sometimes at a trot, for
the women that usually milked her.
The practice, we found, was not con
fined to one farm ; all the cows on each
farm knew their respective names, and
took up their position, just as readily as
the individual members of some luge
herds in this country turning from the
fields to take np their places in the sheds.

In the Face of Death.
It is said that Dr. Tony-Moilin, who
played an important part" in the recent
events in Paris, was permitted before
lieing shot by sentence of a court-martial
to marry a young lady with whom he had
been living and who was near her con
finement. The marriage took place at
three o'clock, and by five in the after
noon the doctor was dead. Whether
this occurrence really took place or not
there can be no doubt it is a very touch
ing story and will not be forgotten by
novelists in after days. The marriage
was hardly more singular in Its attend
ant circumstances, says an English jour
nal than one recorded in the Annual
Rpjjidsr for 1808, in the chronicle for the
month of March in that year. " A
striking display," it is said, "one of the
omnipotence of love occurred at the
High Church, Hull, a few days ago. A
young woman having given her heart to
a sailor, who was impressed and carried
on board the tender by the interference
of her friends, resolved nevertheless to
marry the object of her choice. He was
accordingly brought on shore, and es
corted by the press-gang to the church,
from whence, after the marriage cere
mony, he was again conveyed to the
tender.
BITTEN BT A SNAKE.— The Jacksonville
(Fla.) Union says: On Monday eve
ning at 10 o'clock as Mrs. Mary M.
Cooper, residing near the foot of Adams
street, adjoining the marsh, was attempt
ing to reach a piece of paper from be
neath the bed, she was bitten upon the
hand by a moccasin snake coiled upon
the floor. The snake was nearly a vard
in leugthi and struck with such rapidity
that the fangs penetrated in four differ
ent places before the hand could be
withdrawn; twice upon the top and
twice upon the ball of the thumb. The
whole arm and right breast were swollen
fearfully, and have turned a motlv color.
The attending physician has no hope of
Mrs. Cooper's recovery. The snake was
heard u]>on the roof of tha house the
night previous, probably in search of
rats. __

COMETS.— Jio one doubts, remarks
Professor Newton, that comets are chiefly
composed of very light vajwrs ; though
some of the larger ones may liave a solid
nucleus. " If, as intimated, certain ob
served coinetary phenomena indicate
that these vajHirs, like the solur vapors,
are arranged for a certain depth, at leant,
in envelopes, which are liable to be
greatly expanded, or even wholly ex
pelled, by the increasing amount of h*at
received from the aun, we have in the
probable physical structure of wmiets
another indication that these bodies were
originally detached from the sun's pho
tosphere, in addition to that furnished
by certain features of the coinetary
motions."
ENJOYMENT OF LIFE. Two wealthy
gentlemen were; lately conversing in re
gard to the period when they had best
enjoyed themselves. "I will toll you,"
says one, "when I most enjoyed life.
Soon after I was twenty-one, t worked
for Mr. laying stone wall, at hreuty
cents per day," "Well," replied the
other, "that does not differ much from
my experience. When I was twenty, I
hired myself out at seven dollars per
month. I never enjoyed myself better
since." The experience of these two
individuals teaches, first, that one's hap
piness does not depend on the amount
of his gains or the station he occupies ;
second, that very small beginning with
industry and prudence may secure
wealth.

Trouble with the Indian*.
If we may rely ujxui what a oorres
(xiiHleut savs, we are to have trouble
with the ludians this Summer. Writiug
from Fort Hill to the Governor of Texas,
the eorrwqxmdeut says :
Sines- my arrival here I have lxen care
ful to collect information iu inference to
the movements of Indiana on and off
thege reserves, and would stab- to your
Excellency that it is evident, during the
coming Summer, that there will lx- wit
nessed the most extensive ravages of the
frontiers of Texas of any preceding.
Almost all the Indians of this agency
and tlie Cheyenne* of another, have left,
and ore now on the war-path. We learn
frum Indians that are coming iu frequent
ly that other bands of Comanehes, who
ito not belong here, are also acting, and
that the Plains are black with Apaches.
Upon lx-iug interrogated as to the num
bers of the Apaches, these frieudlr
Indian* pointed to a large valley near by
of more than a thousand ucres, and said
that would not hold them. Constantly
increasing depredations on the north
western frontiers corroborate their state
ments. The Apaches have lxx*n coming
down the waters of the Colorado aud
further oouth, and it is most likely the
depredations committed at the far South
1 were by them. We leai u also there is a
rendezvous west of the reservation in
what is ealled Run Island of Texas,
i There traders from New Mexico mix-t
the Indian* aud furnish them with anus
aud ammunition in exeluuige for horses
and cattle.
A Aew IHdi
One fine day an English gentleman
expected a few choice friends, and call
ing up his French cook, desired him to
prejmre some new delicacy for dinner,
something entirely new, and to surjiass
himself in the manufacture thereof. Hie
poor cook was sadly iwrplcxed. He hod
already tried everything with thirty or
forty different sauces, aud as he was
afnud he might lose his magnificent po
sition if he did not comply with the
wishes of his eccentric master, he taxed
his brain, until, finally, reckless and des
perate, he hit upon something. At din
ner the nobleman spoke to his friends of
his cook's talelit, and all the guests were
very auxious to taste the uew dish. It a|>-
pearetl in due time, magnificently and
stylishly arranged, was cut up and pass.si
around. A tender, delicate flavor, with
a rich, delicious sauce. "What can it
lie ?" said the hast, "Chicken," re
marked a guest. " No, venison," said
another. '' Impossible—it's game." No
one could decide, HO tin* unhappy cook
was ordered up aud asked what the de
lightful viand was. "Mou l>iau ! Mon
sieur, you will lie angry with me if I
tell you ?" " Nonacnse, tell UK what it
is!" "I shall lose my place." "You
will not—speak out." "Well, sir, I
could not invent anything new. so I took
a pair of your old nding breeches, stew
ed, spiced and cooked them. I hojie
you did not find them tough, the sauce
improves such material wonderfully."
The cook was ignomiuionidy put out
A Bead Shot.
A correspondent of the Springfield
R-pttbfiotu writes as follows ; I notice
your statement of Recorder Huckett's
shooting a clam-shell held by Mr. James
G. Bennett, Jr. Your informant is in
error. I was on board the yacht Daunt
less on a late yachting cruise. Mr.
Bennett was in command with four in
vited guests, among whom were Record
er Haekett, of New York, nnd Mr. John
G. Hecksher of Newixirt. Whilst at
sea, and a heavy swell on, I saw Mr.
Hecksher take* a clam-shell and hold it
between his fore-finger and thumb and
stand at 22. yards, or X> feet, from the
Recorder, who had in his hands a Bal
lard rifle : and 1 heard Mr. Bennett give
the word to the Recorder—one, two,
three—who then fired, and I saw the
clam-shell break in numberless pieces,
fragments striking Mr. Hecksher on the
ham! and neck, just drawing blood. I
then saw Mr. Bennett's valet bold a cork
screw in his hand. And nt the same dis
tance and at the word saw the Recorder
shoot it out of bis band. I also saw the
Recorder kill a ]>oke, flying, with his
rifle at 71 yards, nearly cutting his head
off nt Cobb's Island, Virginia, and after
wards saw him shoot two gulls on the
wing. These feats were witnessed by
upward of twenty persons.
A Whole Family Killed.
A Missouri paper gives an account of
a sad accident which occurred near Johns
town, in that State, by which four jx-r
--sona were killed—a father, mother, son
and an infant child. From the meagre
report we gleain the following facts :
Mr. Bottles and fainilv were returning
trom church in a two-hone wagon. In
crossing Deepwater the horses became
frightened and ran away dragging the
on, who was driving, u distance of near
ly a quarter of a mile. In going this
<iStance from the creek it appears that
the mother jungx-d out, after throwing
out her infant child. In the afternoon a
traveler from Germantown discovered
the lifeless body of the son near the
road. Soon after he found the woman
with her neck broken, and the child
lying near her, alive, but almost dead
from the effect of the heat. Further on
he found the wagon upon the dead Ixxlv
of tin- father. The child has since died.
BEHBNADTNO. —They still have away
of serenading newly-married couples,
and extorting bounteous collations, that
is not always agreeable. One party in
bethel, Me., were serenaded < several
nights last week, and refund to invite
the young ruffians in. They probably
supposed that one of the privileges re
tained by them, even when married, is
the ohoice of their own guosts. The
boys, however, thought otherwise, and
finally made an assault upon the couple
as they were walking in the Htreet in the
evening. The bridegroom defended
himself and his wife as well oa lie could,
until OD6 of the assaulting party threw a
stone, which struck the bride over the
eye, and knocked her senseh'ss.
A LONG WALK. —Weston has reason to
congratulate himself upon the successful
performance of the feat of walking 400
miles in less than five days. The thing
appears to have been done fairly ana
without any extraordinary effort, the
pedestrian being comparatively fresh at
the <•; inclusion of the |>erformanee. The
fact that the teat was accomplished with
out any resort to stimulants is particular
ly valuable as a text for tomjierange
aeroionizers.
A Talk YVltli the Itichrlalc*,
A writer in .-tji/JrVoM'* ,/iiornii/deserilx-s
a visit to tin- temporary asylum for hie
briuti-s on Ward's Island, as follows;
The building, ostensibly the Soldiers'
Retreat, is also a public asylum for ine
briates who can pay. or whose friends
an- willing to pay, for their ki<opiiig. It
is under the control of the Cotnmiasioii
era of Charities and Corrections, but as
all the iitmuti-a, except the soldiers, have
have to IHIV or be jutid for, it cannot lx
trtily call ,-d a charily institution. There
aiv nolle of the class called common
drunkards here. A man found intoxi-

can pay or be paid for, as lias already

Couviola, and required to labor as they
do. Aml if any inmate of the asyUun
rnna out of funds before hts term ex-
Iti res, ami no one eonuvi forwaril to pay
lis weekly iMtard, it is a rule tiiut lie,
too, shall he scut down to Black well's

Married Without Knowing It.
The most perplexing predicament in
which Mr. l'ix>|er. an English truder in
China, found himself involved was hi*
unconscious marriage to a native maidem
Here is the story : He was just halting
for breakfast, ufter leaving the Thilx-taii
town of iluthaag, a hcu a group of
young girls, gaily dreasrd aud decked
with garlands of dowers, nune out of a
grove and surroumlM him, some of them
holding his mule, xlnle others assisted
him to alight. He was then led into the
grove, when* he found a feast bring pre
pared, and after he had eaten aud smok
ed bis pipe, the girls came up to him
again, " pulling along in their midst a
pretty girl of sixteen, attired in a silk
dress, and adorned with garlands of
flowers."l had already noticed," Mr.
Cooper continues, "this girl sitting
apart from the others dtiriug the meal,
and was very much astonished when she
was reluctantly dragged up to me, and
made to seat herself by my side : aud my
astonishment was considerably heighten
ed when the rest of the girls Iwguu to
dunce around ns in a circle, singing and
throwing their garlands over myself and
companion." The meaning of this per
formance was. however, soon made clear
to Mr. Cooper. He had been married
without knowing it. At first, he tried
to escape tlio liability entailed upon him ;
but such an outcry was made by all the
people round that he was forced to carry
off Ins bride. He managed to get rid of
her before very long, by transferring her
to one of her relations; but even that
was not treated as a dissolution of the
marriage. Gn his way back he was join
ed one day by a Thilx'tiui dame, of
alxnit thirty-five year* old, who announc
ed herself as his wife's mother, and said
she had come, with the consent of her
husband, to supply her daughter's iilnce.
We can well imagine Mr. Cooper s sur
prise at meeting with this novel projxxial
on the part of his mother-in-law.
DISORACEECL. —They have a pleasant
usage in oue of the English factories
where a number of girls are employed.
A girl who is tix> long iu finishing her
work at one of the frames receives a sound
flogging ou the bare back with a leather
strap, under the direction of the fore
woman. One of the girls who wan twice
whipped in this way lately took legal
proceeding* against .the forewoman.
The latter, however, proved that it was
the regular custom of the establishment,
and that every girl was engogixl on the
condition that sin- was liable to lx> flogged
for the neglect of work. The magistrate
therefore, dismissed the complaint—
perhaps, iu the words of Mark Antony,
" Hence with thy stripes 1" The atten
tion of the Government and the House
of Gommonacertainly ought to lie drnwn
to this extraordinary system of burlier
ism.
BED TAPE. —A foreign brig came into
Fensacnla, Fin., iu January lust, in dis
tress, her Captain having died on the
passage. The vessel was unsenworthy ;
was ntmudaned by owners, sold under
decree of court upon lilwl for seamen's
wages, bought by American citizens and
repaired at a cost of over 85,000. On
an application for American papers, tlic
Secretary of the Treasury finds himself
compelled to refuse the application.
Under the law, American papers ran only
issue to foreign-built shi|m when wreck
ed in waters of the United States (unless
captured in time of war, &c.) This ves
sel, although as worthless as a wreck,
WAS not technically wrecked, within the
meaning of the law.
A married man was recently urged by
an insurance agent to take out a policy
for the benefit of his wife to the amount
of twelve or fifteen thousand dollars, and
a long discussion ensued, which was
ended by the husband, who said, " No,
a widow with mors than ton thousand
dollars would be a dangerous legacy to
leave to posterity."
