Traffic In Stck Bird.
A tbabl'U; dreed man gently pushed
cpcn the door of Broadway, New York,
wine aud lunch room and stepped in'lde,
I would Jike to sell you two fine Can
ary birds," he said to the proprietor ; " I
raised ibera myself, and would not part
with tbem, but am out of wort and need
money."
lie placed oa she bar a small wicker
case in which were two rather pretty
birds ; oue of a light yellow and the other
mottled with prn and drab. They
seemed frightened, and huddled together
oa the peich. Several persons gathered
around. The mottled bird, startled by
the faces, fl ittered about a moment, fail
ed to liht ou the water cu , and then
cowi-rtd iu the footto.n of the cage.
How much do you asfc for them I "
inquired the proprietor.
"They are singers, and the dark one
is of genuine liclgien breed, and has a
very iong song. Thty are easily worth
$4 a piece, but il you will take the two
1 will rivs tlk-m to you for $3.50, for I'm
completely broke."
That U c.ieap,' observed one of the
bystinrieif. " 1 paid 44 for a canary for
my wife not three days ago,
""1 guess L don't want them," said the
proprietor. Uirds are such a trouMe ti
attend to."
I would like to seil them," the man
continued. "Take them Tor $2.00."
The birds were finally sold for $1.50,
and the man went away grumbling. The
proprietor was congratulated on his bar
gain, lie was so pleased tha. he bought
a brats cage with white feed cups. The
birds were transferred to iu and the cage
was suspended from the ceiling. On the
following morning the Belgian bird lay
dead in the bottom of the cage, while the
pale yellow balanced itself with difficulty
on the perch above it. It seemed so weak
that the enaad boy was dcjpa'ched with it
to a neighboring bird store. The bird
fancier grinned.
" Where did you get it ?" he asked.
"The boss bought two of 'em from a
chap yesterday," leplied the boy.
Well, f aid the bird fancier, with a
chuckle, "it serves him right I sold
those identical birds to a fellow yesterday,
lie came in and asked me if I had any
sick bird". 1 told hint tha: 1 had two that
would die in less than a week, lie said
they would do, and 1 let him have them
and the cae for half a dollar. On leav
ing he remarked that be wouldn't lose
anything on them, and I Si th.it be
hasn't."
The pale fellow died on the way back
to the wine room.
There are a number of men in this city
who make a regular bmness of trafficking
in sick birds. They buy the birds from
the dealers, who are ttlail to get rid of
them at any price, and often give them
away. They go from store to store,
carrying a wicker caee, which generally
contains two birds. Their story is that
they are car drivers out of employment,
that they have ra'sed the birdi themselves,
and that poverty compels them to sell
them, lhy start ol by asking a fair
price for them, but wind up by taking
whatevei is offered. Their easiest victims
are German saloon keepers, who, as a
rule, are fond of birds and like to have
them hanging around tLeir . places. They
some times, when the buyer is mistrustful,
promise to come back in a day or two and
take the birds back it they do not prove
satisfactory. It is ndiess to say they
don't come.
Oue of the largest bird dealers in New
York, who sells both at wholesale and
retail, was found by the reporter in his
establishment in Canal street. Hundreds
of canary birds were trying to outvie each
other in sjDg. Parrots praised themselves
in hiiTih tones, and mockingbirds mimick
ed the Dotes of the others. King doves
were coing, and robins whistled.
"Yes," said the bird fancier, as he
rested bis arm on a large cage in which a
dissipated-looking macaw slowly rocked
i:self iu a siting, "there are men who
call aiound aid buy sick birds. Tiiey
tell m they can cure any disease to which
a bird is heir. We know OHrselves pretty
well when a bird can or cannot be cured,
and those that we let go are not the best.
We don't like to httve the dying aud in
curables around and are perfectly willing
to let them try their hands at ucctnring
theci if they to desire. W e generally let
them have the canaries for the price of the
little wicker cages in which thty are
carried. lhesa cai;es are worth about
twenty-five cents. 1 sold a fellow a par
rot for twenty-fiv cents the other day.
I told him It would not live, but be said
he could cure it and look it along.' '
Not Sfeirpnaed.
When John Scott (Lord Eldon) was at
the bar, be was reuturltable for the sang
froid with which he treated the judges.
On one occas'i n a junior counsel, on bear
ing tueir lordships give judgement againit
Lis client, exclaimed that "he was sur
prised at such a derision," This was
construed into contempt of court, and he
was ordered to a trend at the bar Lext
morning. Fearful of the consequences,
be consulted bit friend. John Scott, who
told him to be perfect 'y at case, for he
wculd apologise for him In a way that
would avert any unpleasant result
Accordingly when the name of
the delinquent was called, John rcse aud
coolly addressed the assembled tribunal :
"I am very sorry, my lords, that my
young friend has to far forgot himself as
to treat your honorable bench with disre
spect : he is extremely penitent, and you
will kindly ascribe bis uuinUntional insult
to his iguorance. You must see at once
that it did originate In that, lie said be

Lion.
Lions are one ol the greatest dangers be
tween Zanzibar and the lakes. They some
times hunt game in packs of six to eigLt.
Some animals show fight against them suc
cessfully. Lions never venture to attack
the adult elephant, and even avoid the
buffals unless they are more than two to
one. In general they do not attack cara
vans, and never in day time. At most a
hungry lion may spring upon and carry off
a straggler while passing through the
brakes and jungles. Iiut it is otherwise
at night. When liens, scent the caravan
from afar, particularly if it contains goats
or beast of burden, they approach and an
nounce their vicinity by terrific roaia,
Nevertheless, in a well-inclosed camp
there is no danger; the lions never attempt
to clear the obstacles, and marksmen from
behind the palisades can pick them off with
almost unfailing aim. There is danger
only when the camp is not completely in
closed, or when those inside go out to at
tack them.
In a recent note Mr. W, T. itlanford
described the distribution of land in the
Indian Peninsula and the intervention of a
vast plain traversed by the Indus, Ganges,
and Bramaputra. This plain baa been
generally considered to have been the basts
of a great sea, but in the opinion of the
author the ev.dence advanced does not ap
pear to contain a single fact in favor of
the sea having at any geological period oc
cupied the Uangetic or eastern position of
the plain. The tract is evidently a depres
sion area filled up to above the level of
the sea through a long period of time.

Agriculture Axoor tha Ancient.
Prof. ilcBryde finds among the writings
ot Columella, woo wrote nearly seventeen
centuries before Elkinston was bom, the
following passage concerntn the improve
ment of land by drainage : "If it be wet,
let tbe abundance of moisture be dried up
by ditches. Of these, we are acquainted
with two kinds, covered and open. In
compact and calcareous soils they ate left
open ; but where tbe eround is more por
ous, some of them are left open and some
covered, so that the free vents of the latter
may discharge into the former. It is ne-a-seary,
however, to make the open ones
wider at tbe top and sloping and contracted
at tbe bottom, like inclined pan-tiles, for
those with perpendicular sides are soon
damaged by water, and filled up by falling
in of the sides, in addition to this, tbe
covered ones should be sunk three feet
deep, and, after being half filled with
small stones and coarse gravel, t-bould be
made level with the surface by returning
the earth thrown out in digging them. If
neither stones nor gravel are convenient,
then a bundle of twigs twisted together
like a rope, should be made of such thick
ness as to exactly fit and fill the bottom of
the di'ch. This should be stretched along
the bot.om, and cypress or pine branches,
or any other kind if thete can not be ob
tained, pressed down above it, and tbe
soi thrown over ail, first placing at the
held and mouth of the drain two large
stones, one against each of the sides, and
a single stone across these after the man
ner of a little bridge, in order to support
the sides and keep them from falling in
and obstructing the ingress and egress of
the water."
How very like the methods now recom
mended by modern agricultural writers, and
practised by the best farmers to-day. How
very familiar, too. do the words of Colu
mella sound complainiug of tbe degeneracy
of tbe age in whica be lived, and re-gretting
the "geod oid times" when 'our worthy
ancestors esteemed it their glory to take
care of their farming interests, and to de
vote themselves to agriculture. Later,
Palladius writes approvingly of experiment
farms, managed somewhat after the style
of the experiment stations we are working
so hard to introduce into this country at
tbe preseut time. At these farms, the
Egyptians planted many varieties of seeds
in little plats where the hardiness, prolifi
cacy and excellence of each was deter
mined by close observation and watchful
ness. The list of cultivated plants in those
er!y days would equal the catalogue of
tJturst any of our leading seedsmen. Great
pains were taken in the selection and sav
iug of field seeds, particularly wheat, the
best ears or beads being culled out at har
vest time and threshed separately, and af
terwards cleansed in sieves which separa
ted the small and inferior from the large,
plump kernels. Seeds were also soaked
in chemical solutions before towing, to en
sure germination and give tbe young
plants a more vigorous growth, from which
it would appear that the origin of artificial
fertilization dates far back of the days of
Lie-big, Yille or Stockbridge.
Fields were kept fallow for the purpose j
of resting tbem and increasing their subse-:
quent productiveness, seventeen centuries
ago, the land receiving repeated ploughings
to sprout and destroy seeds of foul weeds
which increase under ordinary or careless
husbandry. Clover, lucern and other le
guminous plants were gtown and turned in
to fertilize tbe soil, precisely as bv the mo
dern system of green manuring. The
theory of ploughing clay lands in ridges
and leaving sandy lands fiat, was also well
understood by tha ancients. Animal ma
nures of all kiLds, the sweepings of streets
and court yaide, ashes, lime, salt and
chalk were all highly valued as fertilizers,
and were collected and used with care.
The breeding of animals for improvement
was well understood by the It mians, who
also have left books of veterinary practice,
which might not be entirely unworthy of
modern cattle doctor.
But we had not expected to learn that
the reaping machine or "header'' was in
common use in the year io of our era.
Pliny, however, writes of a harvesting ma
chine being pushed through tbe grain by
oxen bitched in a reverse position, the van,
armed with sharp teeth, going before - and
taking off the beads w iic!i fall into the
van behind. Three hundred years latsr,
another writer describe a similar machine
mounted on two low wheels, and having
two poles i l tbe rear, between which a
well trained ox is harnessed for pushing
tbe carriage, with its sharp teeth, around
into the fields of grain. The driver fol
lowed behind, and with levers or otherwise.
was enabled to raite or depress the cutters
at will, l he machine was driven back
and forth across tbe field and in a abort
time performed the work of several hands.

constitution, uid Jionsidea." The Con
stitution was one of the largest of aix fri
gates whose construction was ordered by
Congress on JUarch 27, 1794. She was
launched in October 1797. She was built
in Boston, of tbe best live oak. aud cost
$202,718. She began her career in the
Tripolilan war in 1S04, engaging against
batteries mounting 115 guns at Tripoli.
and her broadsides assisted in recapturing
300 American sailors who bad been cap.
turod by the Tnpolitans from on board the
frigate Philadelphia. In the war aeainst
Great Britain in 1812, she gained her fam
ous victory over the British frigate Guer
i it-re on August 19. On December 26 fol
lowing tbe Constitution had an engage
ment with the British frigate Java, and
after a hot contest took her as a prize. The
following year on the coast of Guiana and
among the Windward islands, she captured
the British sloop- )f-war Pictou, a letter of
marque, and t.-veral merchant vessels. She
barely escaped being captured by a British
fleet in IS 14 by taking refuge in tbe harbor
of Salem, Mass. On February 20, 1815,
during another cruise, she captured, after
an action of forty minutes at night, the
British f i bate Cyanr, and the British
sloop Levant. The latter was re captured
by a Biiush squadron off tbe the
harbor of Porto Pray a, and Captun
Stewart of the Constitution, fearing that
the neutrality of tbe port would not be
observed, ran away with his other
prize. Tbe Cyane arrived in New York
in April. 1815, and tbe Constitution
a month later. Dating tbe adminUtta-
tion of Presids t JacLsoo, while tbe
C'Mistitution was moored in New York
harbor, a curious incident occured. A
figurehead cf President Jackson bad
been put on the prow, and the cir
cumstance arousing the indignation of a
lieutenant, he d'Uraiined that "Jackson
should tot go before the Constitution,"
He tbe:efore bsLe dl tl.e figure. The
head was recovered and replaced by
Commander Elliott. It remained on
the prow until the vessel was repaired
for centennial duty, when the edgy was
removed and pltced on a pedestal

the cbrotneraph giving copies os letters in
the black ink of litbograthers, has been in
vented by M. Lelra. It consists of a frame
on which is strttcled a s' eH if pirchment
papery coated witx gelatine. The manu
script to be copied is written with a special
ink sold with the apparatus, and contain
ing a base 't ptrchlotide of iron. It is
laid face downward on the gelatine, pressed
by the band, and tbe ink thereby trans
ferred to tbe gelatine. After this roller
charged with lithograthic ink is passed ov
er it, and the letters witi be been to absorb
the ink, so that if a piece of clean hits,
paper be passed over it, a copy of lb writ
ing in black will be obtained. Fresh cop
ies can be made by passing tbe roller over
the inrnusciipt as before, and laving a clean
sheet of paper over it. Instead of parch
ment paper, a glass plate coated with a film
of gelatine, hardened by alum, can be em
ployed. There ara now 100 stationers in
Boston. In 1849 there were only 20.
AORICUT.TUKK.
Kind Ibkatxkst of HoKaisa. It bas
been observed by experienced horse train
ers that naturi'Jy vicious horses are rare,
and that amows-lbose that are properly
trained and kindly treated when colts they
are the exception. It is superfluous to tay
that a gentle and docile horse is always the
more valuable, other; qualities being, equal,
and it is almost obvious that gentle treat
ment tends to develop ill! admirable qual
ity in tbe horse as well as in the human
species, wbi'e harsh treatment bas the con
trary tendency. Horses have been trained
so as to be entirely governed by the words
of his driver, and they will obey ajd per
form their simple but important duties
with s Ditch alacrity as the child obeys
the direction of the parent. It is true that
ail he-rses are not equally intelligent and
tractable, but it is probable that there is
less difference inong them in this regard
tbau there is among his human masters,
since there are many Incitements and am.
bitions among men that do not affect ani
mals. The horse learns to know atd to
have confidence in a gentle driver, and
soor. discovers how to secure for himself
that which be desires, and to understand
his surroundings and his d u! if i Tbe tone,
volume, and inflection of his master's voice
indicate much, perhaps more than the
words that are spoken. Soothing tones
rather tbau words calm him if excited by
ftar or aner, and angry and excited toots
tend to excite or anger him. In short bad
masters make bad bores.
Look to the Fbm Horsk. Farm hor
ses in tbe fall are often ungratefully neg
lected. Their hard toil in he ping with
the heavy work of the season once over,
when only odd jobs await them, il is too
frequeut a custom to dock them ot their
gram and allow them to shift forihemseives
on tbe pastures often without needed shel
ter fiom the bieak wind and early frosts cf
autumn nights. After feeding awhile tbe
poor animals get chilled and run about in
tbe dark in search of warmth, which they
often find only at tbe tost of a stumble or
fall, resulting cf ten in a sprain or a cut that
injures or disfigures them for life. Tnen,
when warm and tired they lie down ti
lest, what wonder if they rise up niff.
spiritless and not rarely suffering a severe
cold after their heated blood and relaxed
sinews have been exposed to th blasts and
frosts of a chilly niirhL When the days
are stormy it is well enough to let hones
run in tbe pasture, but every night should
find them comfortably bedded and fed in
the stable. Ingratitudj to our fellow-men
is justly considered an odious vice, but
is there not often a strong taint of it In the
treatment of there noble animals, to wboee

Sicctsd lx Fakmiso. To lie 8iicfeful
in farming one must always be cartful in
selecting his seed;, use good judgment in
selecting animals, keep his farm well cul
tivated and free from weed", keep fences
in order and take good care of 1o j!p. He
must also, as an exchange says, be one who
keeps out cf debt, and has a con'.cuted
mind; sends his children to schxi', and
takes one or more good papers devoted to
farm and steick interests. A farmer who
never reads is like a machine that is never
oiled it wears. He wears hinise'f out,
exhausts his land and dies poor. One good
suggestion found in a paper or book, is
worth to men more than half a life of trials
when not made intelligently. Djn't be
afraid to read and acknowledge that yon
can learn from others. No one knows it
all. Somebody knows something that you
don't. Let your aim be to acquire every
thing any one can teach yoi', and it will
put money in your purse, brains in your
head, and influence in your presence.
PsofEsSjb Knapp. of Iowa, is credited
with having instituted a series of experi
ments with soft woods for fence posts, the
preserving element being hot gas, or cosl
tar. Up to date, bass wood, willow, Cot
tonwood, etc., show as durable results as
oak. The tar was applied boiling hot, the
posts being allowed to remain in the mix
ture some fifteen minutes, and then dned
for a month in the sun. Green wood seem
ed to take up the tar best, and examination
found the penetration cf the tar bad been
from OLe halt to three fourths of an inch in
many cases. The cost cf thus coating 158
posts will b3 about one dollar, the coat ef
a barrel of tar, besides the labor, li the
expenmeut is conclusive it goes far toward
answering the question of posts, for all
farms have got abundant material in beech
basswood, willow, etc., for poets, aud the
expense of coating them with tar is a mere
trifle compared with the purchasing of
ceaar ior tnal purpose.
CcTrrso Fbcit Tehes There is a great
aeai to De learnt yet regarding the best
time to cut timber. So far there has been
no practical tests on a large scale, and
what we know Is chiefly what is tbe op.n
ion cf mdif iJuals who have had experience
in ea ting timber. The following extract
is an example: "An old experienced far
mer says that hickory cut in July or Au
gust will not become worm-eaten. Oak,
chestnut, walnut or other timber cut from
tbe middle cf July to the last of Angmt,
will last twice as long as when cut in win
ter. White oak cut at this season, if kept
off the ground will season through if two
teet in diameter, and remain Deifectlv
sound for many years. Whereas, if cu; in
winter or spring it will become sao-rotten
in a few years." These observations rre
valuable as leading to the truth, but what
is needed is through tetts under competent
supervision.

was in so much better condition in the fall
that it saved him the whole co-t of this
extra food in wintering. He has followed

A u-rtter in The Enylith Mechanic
points out tome of the advantages of double-glazing
in promoting the health of
homes in winter. Skylights, he saja, ought
never to be put up unless double or double
glazed. DeMible-glazing answers perfectly
if tbe sashes are grooved out for glass on
each side, and are then glazed with an air
spare of oue half inch or more between
the panes ot g!aa. The glass must be put
in with its inner faces perfectly bright and
clean; and the gluing should be done on a
culeL dry day, so as not to include watery
vapor, which in cold weather will condense
inside the air space, and cat.se nil-tneoa.
This double glazing will, an ar SKce makes
a window almost as warm as a briek wall,
and n4 onl keeps up the temperature of a
room in winter, and saves fuel, but it keep
the room tool in hot weather, and it makes
the temperature metre uniform throughout
the apartment. With ordinary thin glaz
ing in winter, the inmates are always being
cbil ed on that aide which looks toward the
window, and baked on the side which is
toward the fire. Double glazing on win
dow sashes would save all this trouble.

I wish to say to you that I have been
suffering for the last five years with a
severe itching all over. I have heard of
Hop Bitters and have tried it, 1 have
used up four bottles, and it has done me
more good than all tbe doctors and medi
cines that they could use on or with me. I
am old and poor but feel to blew you ior
such a relief by your medicine and from
torment of the doctors, l have had ni
teen doctors at roe. One gave me seven
ounces of solution ot arsenic: another
took four quarts of blood from me. All
they could tell was that it was skin sick
ness. Now. after these four bottles of
your medicine, my skin is well, clean and
smooth as ever.
