MISCELLANEOUS
The Great Illinois Ditch.
There has heretofore been a marsh
of some 200,000 acres in extent on the
west side of Mason County, Illinois,
• which lies along the Illinois River,
■ that stream making tbe western
boundary. This marsh, since the
settlement of the State,has been great
I duck and other game hunting grounds
; thoujrh considerable of a nuisance to
! the farmers living on its borders
1 This marsh has recently been drained
bv tbe Mason County Drain Co.,con-
S tisting of tbe farmers owning the ad-
I joining land and the outside proprie
j tors of tbe marsh laud. The main
ditch is 60 feet wide at top, 40 feet at
bottom, aud 8 feet deep. It is fifteen
miles long, has a fall of 4 feet to tbe
mile, and drains with its laterals,
whicu are 30 feet wide at top, 15 at
bottom, and with a depib to corres
ponO with the mains, from 200,000 to
300,000 acres Tbe cost of the whole
is estimated to be $200,000. The
earth removed is sand aud clay mix
ed, aud offers little resistance to tbe
machinery. Tbe dredge doing the
work floats in the water of the ditch
and maki;B 100 feet progress every
day. Tbe assessed cost on some of
the drained laud will ultimately
amount to $25 per acre, and thence
grading down to a trivial sum.
The work has been in progress for
several years, and meantime the land
drained has produced surprising crops
of wheat and corn. Tbe past year—
a year of severe drouth—matters
have not progressed as favorably in
respect to crops, thousands of acres of
torn having been lost by "firing" in
•itinsequence of the sudden withdraw
al of the usual moißture. Tbe thougt
ful among the projectors of the
-cbeme and owners of the land are
now aware that tbey have mado a
mistake in not provided for holding
a portion of the water, and recognize
toe fact that the ditch is twice the di
mensions it should have been If it
.vere not for the fall—4 feet to the
mile—a few locks or dams would hold
tbe water when it will be needed 'or
crops; but now it will take many.
The Dog Was Innocent.
A Demp»eytown correspondent
this readable dog story:
Probably one of tbe most singular
■ases of dog killing and damages that
ver occurred in this part ot the coon
ry wa3 tried before a Franklin Jus
ice of the Peace recently. The par
ticulars are abont as follows: Some
ime ago dogs broke into the enclos
nre of S B. Keely, a resident of
Creek township, and killed six
-beep and wounded several others.
Mr. Keely thought he knew whose
logs did the killing and wounding.
Among tbe number thus set apart
for vengeance by Mr. Keely was a
valuable dog belonging to Israel
Phillips, a neighbor of Keely's.
Keely went to Phillips and told him
hat his (Phillips') dog was one of
tbe guilty animals, and demanded
•e should be killed. Phillips told
Keely to kill the dog if he was among
he number that had killed tbe sheep
Keely took tbe risk killed the
log. Immediately after the dog was
lead Phillips proceeded to hold a
,>ost-mortein examination, which re
vealed tbe fact of tbe dog's innocence,
is nothing was tound in bis teeth,
'tomach or intestines to indicate his
milt Phillips sought advice and
orought suit against Keely to recover
he value of his dog, which he laid
it SSO, and received a verdict for the
ull amount, with cost?—Cochrauton

Duration of Life.
According to Mulball's Dictionary
•if Statistics, the average age of all
living in France is 32 years,2 months
■ind 12 days. In tbe United States
it. is only 24 years, 10 months, and 24
lays.
France and the United States show
he extremes of civilized countries
In London tbe proportion of chil
dren under five years is nearly double
hat of Paris, but tbe proportion of
Loudon population between forty and
-ixty is only about two thirds that of
f'aris. Estimated from "Mulhall's
Statistics."
In 1841 only 4 3 per cent of the
population of Ireland were over sixty
years old. In IHBI the percentage
over sixty, was 10 6 of tbe liviog. Iu
Kugland tbe percentage of the popn
lation over sixty, was in 1841, 72,
and 1871 it was only 7.8.
Selling Horace Greeley's Birth
place.
Horace Greeley's birthplace is to
h sold for tixes. It is a low-Htud
ded fannb -use with small windows
fid roof situated io the
t'>wn of Amherst. There Graelev
was bom on February 3, 1811. Wiih
t e 120 acres of land about it, tbe
house now belongs to Fred Colton.
Tiie farm will be sold at public anc

It is somewhut remarkable that
reeley's father, Zaccheus, lost
he place through the sheriff's aid.
Horace was 10 years old when his
father had to give up the vain at

A Blackbird Remains Here All
Winter.
A singular circumstance i& that of
a black bird remaining here in tbe
North all winter and, apparently, en
joying it. On the Derrick Updegraff
farm, on the Long Reach, clo«je to the
city limits, a black bird can be fceen
at almost any time daring tbe day,
generally perched high on a large
black walnnt tree in front of the farm
boose, furnishiDg sweet music 'or
those within hearing ot its voice. Its
first notes in the morning are calls for
its mate —the mate prjb.ibly being in
tbe South, or dead Following these
calls comes forth from its little throat
music ot the most delightful kind It
feeds with tbe chickens in the yard,
and often goes iuto the barn for grain
At night it perches on a Norway pine
in front of tbe bouse, along with sev
eral chickens that prefer that kind of
a roost. It has been noticed, on cold
evenings, that it gets iu uuder a wing
of one of the chickens, to keep itself
warm. During some of the extreme
cold weather this winter it, no doubt,
suff-red greatly, its song from the
w.tlnut tree being very weak; but its
recovery wa3 complete as s »ou as
warmer sunshine appeared It i* a
plump, fine lookiug bird, as it receives
plenty of food.—Williamsport Gazette-
Bulletine

Lord Hampden, who recently pre
sided at the annual dinner of tbe Lon
don Cab Drivers' Beneyolent associa
tion, in a pleasant after diuoer speech
commended to the "cabbies" the fol
lowing lines, which be said he
hung up in bis owu stables:
Up hill—whip me not.
Down hill —hurrv me not,
Sick or cold—chill me not
Tired or hot —leave me not.
On level road—spare me not.
Of hay and corn—rob me not.
Loose in stable—forget me not.
Of soft dry bed—deprive me not.
When you are angry—strike mo
not.
With bit and reine—oh, jerk me
not.
With sponge and brush—neglect
me not.
—An exebauge says* "Prof Ezra
Abbot was an extreme Unitarian aud
a foremost biblical scholar. For a
long time he doubted the authenticity
of the Fourth Gospel, very likely be
cause of tbe emphasis St John places
on the divinity of Christ aud tbe
Trinity But it is to Prof. Abbot's
lasting credit that near the close of
his life, after long and rigid investi
gation, and against bis original pred
ilection,he came to theconclusiou that
tb« Fourth Gospel was unquestiona
bly Jobanneun in its origin It is
laie in tbe afternoon to abolish the
Four Gospels. It would be quite as
