Disrespect In t&e Family.
One of the dangers of home life is the
habit of dbrespect, which 1 bred by, fa
miliarity. People who are all beauty and
sunshine for a crowd of strangers, for
whom they hare not the faintest iiifcction,
are all ugliness and gloom for their own,
by w hose love they live. The pleasant
little prettmcsses of dresg and personal
adornment which mark the desire to
please are put on only for the admiration
of those whoso admiration goes for noth
ing, while the house companions are
treated only to the ragged gowns and
threadbare coats, the touzled hair and
stubbly beard, which, if marking the ease
and comfort of home, mark also the indif
ference and disrespect which do so much
damage to the sweetness and delicacy ot
the daily life. And what is true of the
dress is truer still of the manners and tem
pera of home, in both of which we find too
often that want of respect w hich seems to
run side by side with real affection and
the custom of familiarity. Parents and
up-bringers do not pav enough attention
to thus in the young. They aflow habits
of disrespect to be formed rude, rough,
insolent, impatient and salve over the
ore with the stereotyped excuse: "They
mean nothing by it" which, if we look
at it aright, is no excuse at all; for if they
ao really mean nouimg oy 11, arm tuciruts
respectis not what it sc-enistobe, the result
of strong anger, uncontrollable temper, but
is merely a habit, then it ought to be con
quered without loss of time, being merely
a manner that hurts all parties alike. But
if we analyze it we shall find that the se
cret of the fine manner of the uppcr classes
resides in the dignified respect they not
only demand for themselves but pay to
others. A high-bred person, angry, does
not brawl and scold like a fish-wite, and
the steel with w hich one of the " superior
people" wounds his opponent is polished,
keen, deadlj-, if you will, but not brutal.
Perhaps if we could get f firmly implant
ed as an article of belief that disrespect ia
an unpardonable vulgarity we should be
quicker to mend our waj's and to pay the
tribute we all claim for ourselves as our
inalienable due from others, as also their
inherited and inalienable right. 2'he
Gulden Age.
The Laws of Crowd.
The Springfield (Mass.) Republican
thinks experience has furnished material
enough from which just a few of the laws
that govern human beings under panic
maybe formalized. Its axioms are worthy
of consideration in every locality whera
crowds are liable to congregate :
1. It don't take a big crowd to choke a
narrow passage. A hundred people will
do it as well as a thousand.
2. 'When people are piled en masse in a
passage and the building is afire there
will be: more corpses taken out of the pile
than living beings. Human beings die
quick under those circumstances.
3. It doesn't take a big crowd to block a
door that opens inward so snug that there
is no more passage than there is through a
brick wall. The strength of frenzied men
and women avails nothing against a door.
4. It is the exits which arc in constant
use by the whole body of the public which
are ot use at such times. No others are of
use at such times. .No others are of prac
tically much consequence. Back passages
and private entrances might almost as well
not be. The frantic do not know of them
and cannot be taught them in this world.
5. The barrenest and safest places may
be converted into tinder-boxes by very
trivial circumstances. Churches which
are safe enough commonly may be tleco
oratcd murderously. Even our barren
City Hall was converted, not long ago,
into a wilderness of painted canvas and
flaring lights, a miniature city, among
which circulated many hundreds of peo
ple. It was a death-trap. A hall or a
church which may be safe with a stove
may become a death-trap by the introduc
tion of a furmjre under the stairways.
6. "Presence of mind" may as well be
counted out as a saving element. Vie can
make over our churches, we can't make
over men or women ; it is pretty evident
by this time that we can't make "men and
women to fit the churches and be sure of
their surviving the process.
Military Affairs In China.
An interesting report on military and
naval aflairs in China has been published
at Berlin by an officer of the German cor
vette Ariadne, which has just returned
from a cruise in the China seas. Three
large forts are being built at the mouth of
the Swatow Biver; they are to be armed
with Krupp guns, of which a great num
ber have already been imported into the
country, (treat activity prevails in the
arsenal at Canton, where about 300 work
men are employed in manufacturing fire
arms. These are chiefly huge lines on
the Enfield system, about two metres and
a half long, each of which requires three
men to attend to it. Gun-carriages are
also being made for long fifteen centimetre
coil-guns. The officers observed a great
want of coal and other naval material.
On t'inehing at Amoy, opposite the island
of Formosa, he was informed that several
desperate encounters had taken place be
tween the Chinese and the natives, and
that the former had been so unsuccessful
in their efforts to sulnlue the Formosans
that a force of alout 10,000 Chinese troops
had been assembled in the southern part
of the island to complete its subjugation.
This, however, will probably turn out to
be a difficult task, for the Chinese troops
are badly organized and equipped. Large
masses of troops were also assembled in
a camp near the harbor of Amoy. Three
thousand of these were regulars, and
7,000 more were scattered about in the
vicinity. The camp was behind a granite
wall, atmut two English miles long and
twelve feet high, which was fortified dur
ing the complications with Japan by a
few small forts. These forts are so badly
armed and built that they are incapable
of resisting not only rifled artillery but
even wind and weather. The arms con-
. Fisted of smooth-bore muskets, and the
soldiers did not seem to know how to use
them, and showed a preference for the
national halberds and spears.
The resident's Letter.
In concluding his letter the President
snj-s he is not and never has been a candi
date for renomination, and that he would
not accept it if it were offered him, except
under circumstances which would make
it an imperative duty, but which, he says,
are not likely to arise. He thus virtually
withdraws his name from further consid
eration, and in a manner w hich will com
mend him anew to the regara of his coun
trymen. The attempt to represent his let
ter as inconclusive or unwilling is hope
less. There is nothing more absurd than
the portrayal of Gen. Grant as a dark, de
signing man, nourishing a deadly ambi
tion, and resolved to overthrow our liler
ties. Nothing is more conspicuous in him
than his simple patriotism. He is hon
estly faithful to his sense of official duty;
and however we may have differed as to
the wisdom of any course he has pursued,
or however freely we may have criticised
his conduct, we have never felt or inti
mated the least distrust of his honest and
patriotic purpose. There can be nodoubt
of the entire sincerity of his remark in
this letter: " The idea that any man could
elect himself President, or even renomi
nate himself, is preposterous. It is a re
flection upon the intelligence and patriot
ism of the people to suppose such a thing
possible. Any man can destroy his
c hances for the office, but no one can
force an election, or even a nomination."
We think that in this remark he fails to
appreciate the enormous and insidious
power of patronage and of "machine
politics," but we certainly do not suppose
that it is the mask of any foul purpose of
coercing the popular will.
The treatment of the letter by the Dem
ocratic and Opposition press is natural
and very explicable. Their chief capital
has been denunciation of what they cajl
Grantism, the identification of the party
with the personal fortunes and ambition
of the President. By one stroke of his
pen he now confounds this assumption,
and, while he puts an end to Grantism,
commends Grant to higher favor. This
is a very great service, for it
presents to the country the simple
issue, without any reservations, be
tween the spirit, tendency and proba
bilities of Republican or Democratic as
cendency. AVe shall hear much, of course,
of Grant's Presidential favorites and
Grant's candidates and of the continuance
of the Grant policy: that this candidate is
Grant under another name, and that that
is Grant's worst adviser. Indeed, Gen.
Grant having withdrawn himself honestly
from the canvass, we thall still be told
that we cannot escape him, and that, de
spite himself and despite the Republican
party, he is still the party and the party
is he.
"While this folly continues no Republi
can will fail to see how constantly the
party purifies and strengthens itself. The
pretenses that the office-holders would im
pose the President upon the convention,
that the party would not dare to disclaim,
the third term, and that those w ho sup
ported it were the real directors of the
party, are now all swept away. And the
spirit which has disposed of them is the
renewed and reviving spirit which sees
that the party was inclining toward some
dangerous courses, and is sensible enough
to acknowledge it, and to reprove and
correct the tendency. It is impossible for
any fair man to .show either that the con
tinued dominance of the Republican party
would insure the adoption of courses that
have been condemned, or that a Demo
cratic success would secure an intelligent
and firm administration of the Govern
ment in the spirit of the amended Consti
tution. The letter of the President is a
very significant political event. It re
moves plain difficulties from the situation,
and cheers every citizen who would re
gard the passing of the National Govern
ment into uemocratic nanus as a nauonai
calamity. Harper's Weekly.

How Water Is Injured by Organic
- Hatter.
'-In a rrccnt work entitled "Scientific
Conversations," by M. Forville, of Paris,
the reason why organic matter becomes a
dangerous constituent of water is thus set
forth:
How does organic matter become dan
perou? We must not believe that it con
stitutes, as superficially said, a tonic ele
ment. The phenomenon is more com
plex. The organic matter in suspension
or in solution creates in the water a pe
culiar medium suitable for the develop
ment of exceedingly small beings of the
genus Vibrio. It is no longer mere
water it is a world of microscopic ani
mals and plants which are born, live and
increase with bewildering rapidity. The
infusoria find in the water calcarious,
magnesian and ammoniacal salts, and
their maintenance is thus secure. Drink
a drop of this liquid aud vou swallow
millions of minute leings. But there are
vibrios and vibrios. "There arc those
which are capable of setting up putrefac
tion in our tissues. These are our ene
mies. Let water be placed in contact
with organic remains capable of nourish
ing - these ' malignant vibrios, and it at
once becomes more dangerous than any
poison. Popular Science Monthly.

The Slate Debt of Louisiana.
A Chicago newspaper of the 5th inst.
contained grossly false statements in regard
to the State debt of Louisiana. It stated
in substance that a . legislative commit
tee has discovered, from an examination
of the State Auditor's accounts, that the
State debt reaches the sum of 150,007,393,
and adds :
This is the amount of the debt as it stood
at the commencement of the current calen
dar year. How much it has been increased
eincc that does not appear. The annual in
terest charge is more than 3,f00,000, a larger
sum than ought to he required to cover all
the expenses of the State Government.
Gov. Kellogg lias uddressed a letter to
the journal in question, in which he shows
that the statements of the article are false
in general and particular. He shows: 1.
That no legislative committee has re
ported upon the State debt since he has
been in office. 2. That in 1873 he ap
pointed a committee, consisting of "old
and prominent citizens," which reported
that the State debt was then $24,2S;J,S8G.
3. That the committee found still on the
statute books what was called a "contin
cent debt," amounting to f 21,090,500. 4.
That the committee found that this contin
gent debt "was based upon many old acts
of successive Legislatures, covering many
years, which provided that certain lia
bilities, such as the indorsement by
the State of second mortgage bonds on
railroads when built, etc., might accrue on
certain conditions." -5. That none of the
conditions had been complied w ith. Gov.
Kellogg then shows that all the acts cre
ating these contingent liabilities w ere re
pealed by the funding bill approved Jan.
24, 1874, and adds: "And to-day there is
not a dollar of this contingent debt in act
ual or possible existence."
Having brushed away the falsehoods
Gov. Kellogg proceeds to state what the
debt of Louisiana actually is to-day. He
says :
Having stated eo prominently what the debt of
Louisiana is not, will you now permit me to state
what it really in? In January. S4, the bonded and

Inclndimj the loan to ths properly banks already

In response to the innuendo of the Timet
that the State debt has gone on increasing
not only during the present year of his
administration, Gov. Kellogg shows that
it has not increased at all, but, on the
other hand, that it has been reduced by
f:,552,727.G.j.
In conclusion he says :
While the pnblir debt has thus been diminished
over J.555.0U0 under my administration, and In the
face of the preateet obstacles, taxation, both State
and parish, lias been reduced fully one-third with
in the same period. The funding bill adopted in

erally accepted by our creditors at home, and I
bave just received from theeonnril of foreign bond
holders, under date of Mav 20. 18, o. a formal notifi
cation that, while they still condemn the bill, they
are prepared to accept its provisions, being satis
fied that "the principle of this bill has been adopt
ed by all sections of citizens, and now forms part
of the Constitution of the State." We have funded
already over tl.ouo.ono of obligations, and have
more than 3QU.uu in the Treasury to the credit
of the interest fund. ...

The Element or rinck.
A whiter in the American Agriculturist
says:
l'eople in pecuniary misfortune, in es
timating their liabilities and resources,
seldom consider among the latter the
element of pluck. The tendency with
nearly all unfortunates is to magnify
difficulties and underrate or wholly for
get their power to overcome them. A
man in good health, with unsullied char
acter, need fear no evil, nor be robbed of
his happiness, no matter how adversely
things may appear. If he is heavily in
debt and can satisfy the community that
he is straining every nerve and appro
priating all his resources to discharge
his obligations, there is no danger of his
losing a well-earned reputation, and there
is no reason why he should not be cheer
ful in his family and joyous in his own
heart. The self-consciousness of integ
rity, coupled with the approving smile
of the Father above, should enable a man
to face every foe and surmount every
difficulty. If instead of burdensome debt
he is overtaken by fire or flood, bo that
the accumulated comforts of years are
sweprtiway in an hour, he gains nothing
by Bitting down, folding his arms and
weeping over his misfortune. " Up and
at it" i3 a familiar, but expressive,
phrase. Pluck is a lever that upheaves
difficulties. Before a resolute man the
green withes of adversity snap like
threads of tow. It is not enough that a
man in trouble has physical force to exe
cute and mental clearness to plan, but
behind both he needs the impelling
power of pluck. The steam-engine may
be ever so perfect ana bright, the en
gineer ever so competent, but both
would be unavailable to draw the long
line of cars if steam were lacking. Pluck
is to a man what steam is to the railway
train.
A farmer a short time ago came to a
well-known citizen for advice. He was
in low spirits, matters had gone wrong
with him through loans to friends and
speculations outside of his farming busi
ness, until his debts became exceeding
ly burdensome. Unaccustomed to such
interruptions in his hitherto unwavering
success, his spirits gave way. Brooding
over his troubles he became morose and
gloomy. He had no cheerful words for
family or friends. He allowed trilling I
causes to keep him from church, and in
stead of listening to the encouragement
of the Gospel he moped on Sundays
around nis House ana barns. Wherever
he went he carried a " hang-dog look,"
and whatever he did was done feebly,
as though strength and ambition were
both gone. In this condition of things a
friend advised him to open his mind to
the citizen above mentioned, whose long
familiarity with trials made him capable
both of sympathy and counsel. The
conversation soon developed the fact
that the farmer owned a property worth
$30,000, that his entire indebtedness
did not exceed $13,000, and that
his income exceeded his outgoes, in
cluding interest on his indebtedness,
by $1,000. " Why," said the citizen,
"have you been disheartened over
such a condition of affairs as this?
What! a surplus of $17,000 and a net in
come of $1,000 a year to apply to your
debts, which will grow less and less
burdensome as successive payments are
made. Why, my friend, thousands of
poor fellows struggling with debts with
out any surplus income would be happy
to step into your shoes and sing like a
lark over their good fortune. There is
but one thing that is the matter with
you, my friend, you have simply lost
pluck! Yes! one other professing faith
in a divine Providence, you have also
lost trust." So, after many encouraging
words on the part of the citizen, he bade
him good-by with a strong grasp of the
hand, with ihc parting words: "Thank
you, sir, I feel better." And so he did;
his eyes were opened to realize that, as
in the case of thousands of others, his
troubles were imaginary. How different
tho spirit of a furniture dealer of my
acquaintance, whose entire property
above ground was recently destroyed by
fire in a single night. Three buildings, a
stock of furniture, household comforts,
wardrobes, keepsakes, indeed, everything,
so that morning found the family dis
persed in friendly dwellings with noth
ing saved but the garments in which
they fled.
But see this man's pluck. In answer
ing a friend's sympathizing letter he
writes: "Your kind letter of sympathy
at our late mishap was duly received. I
have so much to tell I hardly know
where to begin. Well, thank Providence,
we arc all well, in excellent health and
lull of pluck. We have almost forgotten
about it and arc tired of talking fire and
arc on the go-ahcad track only. In less
than twenty-four hours we had a store
rented and "commenced to get ready for
a new start. Some folks could not un
derstand how I could take it so coolly,
and if our loss had not been so complete
and total I might have been suspected
from my coolness of having a hand in it.
I have been rusting for two years. My
son ran the business while 1 did the
playing. But now the rust is pretty
well rubbed off and I am about as bright
as ten years ago." To anyone in pecun
iary distress let mc suggest that the
way out of difficulties is not by hang
doggedness, but pluck.

Window-blinds cannot take the place of
netting or gauze, because they exclude
so much of the cool evening and night

the good ctlects of these shades we must
also have the doors attended to. A slight

fastened to the outer door-posts by means
of strong hinges, and, with a hasp to

Tue Sanitarian says that in cases of

part of the body is involved, it knows of
no dressing so good as a bran bed; that
is, a bed of bran in which the patient
may lie, and be covered with a thick in
vestment of the same. The dressing has
the advantage of not requiring change,
for each day as the moist particles fall
off they can be replaced with fresh bran,
withoat disturbing the patient. One of

done to patients by frequent dressings,
ami any method that obviates this is most
desirable. Patients frequently arc ex
posed for hours to the action of the air,
suffering unnecessary pain by the old and
tedious process of dressing. The air
itself does no injury, but the extreme
hyperesthesia of the skin produces a
state of nervous tremor which leads to
exhaustion.

Lockjaw In Horses.
Pkof. Law says that no horse with
lockjaw should have bay or other food
requiring chew ing. He should be care
fully secluded from every source of ex
citement, kept in a perfectly quiet box
or stall, locked, allowing no one to go
in except the attendant, who must move
about as noiselessly as possible. Feed
in such a case only" on gruels and thin
mashes, which he can suck up w ithout
opening the raouth and for which no
mastication is required; have the bucket
containing this gruel placed at the same
height as the animal's nose, that he may
need neither to stoop the head nor to
raise for food or drink.
As the disease advances it is always
advisable to put the horse in slings, as
many aie during convalescence from ly
ing down because of a feeling of weari
ness, and inducing a fatal paroxysm by
their eflorts to get up. Besides these
essential measures the bowels must be
kept open. An ounce of Barbadocs aloes
with a dram of gentian should be giv
en if possible before the jaws are locked;
it not, five croton beans, powdered.
should be given daily, or less frequent
ly, so as 10 Keep tue Dowels acting iree
ly. Half a dram of hydrocyanic acid
shoum be given once or twice daily, and
with this the proton may be easily ad
ministered without exciting the horse,
by mating it into a pasty mass with
treacle and smearing it on the grinding
tooth, that the animal may swallow it as
last as it is dissolved.
With great care and quietness this
treatment will often succeed, though re
coveries often occur after the most
varied plans of treatment. Among the
most rational of these are injections of
two ounces of oil of turpentine in a pint
of linseed oil, and, still better, sweating
the animal by keeping him enveloped in
rags soaked in hot water.
Big-head is usually due to ill health,
and especially consequent impaired nu
trition of the bones. Feed well on boiled
oats and barley, allowing little hay, and
that cut and damped. Work very mod
erately. Hub the swelling with a mixt
ure in equal parts of iodine and mer
curial ointments, repeating this daily,
and suspending it only when there is
much irritation. Give daily a tonic ball
or powder containing the following in
gredients: Carbonate of iron, two drams;
bicarbonate of soda, two drams; pow
dered gentian, four drams. In-Door and

Care of the Teeth.
It is admitted that poor teeth arc more
common among Americans than with
any other people. Whether this is due
to poor digestion or not we will not here
discuss, though- it is quite certain that
poor teeth will produce poor digestion
and its consequent ills. It is a fixed
physiological fact that food, to be prop
erly digested, must " be masticated
ground fine by the teeth and mixed
with -saliva before it passes into the
stomach. Defective teeih or the lack of
teeth prevent the proper performance of
this, the very first act in the complicated
process of digestion. The dentist can
supply artificial teeth when the natural
ones are lacking, but very few persons
seem to be aware of what every honest
dent ist will tell them, that very poor
natural teeth are better than the best
possible artificial ones. No matter how
well they may be made artificial teeth
are always a source of discomfort.
Hence the importance of great care to
preserve every tooth possible. A natu
ral tooth should be kept useful by filling
so long as it can be operated upon. Fill
ing is too important an operation to be
trusted to any but the best operators.
It sometimes happens, as in the
writer's case, that gold and other
metals cannot be tolerated; the teeth
beins sensitive, and the gold a good con
ductor, a sensation of chill and pain was
felt when cold or hot liquids came in
contact with it. This difficulty was rem
edied by using a filling of prepared gutta-percha,
which has remained firm from
three to six years. Some dentists intro
duce a non-conducting layer of gutta
percha under the cold filling. The
proper care of the teeth will do much to
preserve them, and it 13 a great mistake
to neglect the teeth, as many do, with
the idea that when they arc "gone they
can afford to buy a new set. We repeat
with emphasis what was said above, that
the very best artificial teeth are a poor
substitute for even poor natural teeth.
The teeth of children, after they get
their second, setr should be carefully
looked after, and in old and young the
first signs of decay 6hould be arrested
by the care of a skilled dentist. Insist
upon proper care of the teeth; few per
sons are so careless as not to brush them
once a day in the morning usually but
it is quite as important to brush them at
night also; and besides this, every parti
cle of food should be carefully re
moved from bet ween the teeth. Never
use a pin, or a metallic tooth-pick, but
one of wood or quill, and small enough to
go between the closest teeth. Food left
between the teeth at night ferments and
causes decay. Use only a moderately
hard brush and w ater, as a general thing.
The tooth-powders and washes are for
the most part worse than useless some
being positively injurious; the teeth
6hould never get into such a condition as
to need a harsh scouring with powdered
pumice or powdered charcoal; when
this is the case the cleaning should be
done by a dentist, and the teeth kept
clean afterward by the frequent use of
tne Drusn. many persons minis uiai, un
less they use a powder of some kind,
they are not doing their duty ; let such
use powdered orris-root, or some fine
toilet-soap. If the gums are in a 6pongy,
soft condition use a few drops of tincture
of myrrh in the water or make a cold in
fusion or wnite-oaK baric to use as a
wash; the strength is not important. To
sum up use the tooth-brush morning
and night all the better if after each
meal; use a wood or quill tooth-pick
thoroughly, especially before going to
bed: avoia all ' boughten" and much-ad
vertised tooth-powders and, especially,
at the first signs of decay consult a com
petent dentist, and hold on to every nat
ural tooth as long as it can perform
service. American Agriculturist.
The Value or a Young Sod.
Farmers have lately learned by ex
perience that it is sometimes good policy
to allow newly-seeded ground to get as
large a growth as possible in spring,
plowing it under the first, or even the
second, week in June and planting corn
or potatoes. The plan seems wasteful,
as no kind of grass would get halt its
growth so early in the season ; but it is
found that this young sward, full of sap,
decays so much more readily that it is
even better for the succeeding crop than
sod which has become old and tough
from late mowing, or from being tramped
by cattle and sheep in late fall, winter
and spring. The gist of this plan,
wherever it has succeeded, has been in
keeping the grass uncropped all the
spring.and where this is faithfully adhered
to the additional growth of clover will
sometimes warrant plowing for Early
Kose potatoes as late as the middle of
June. The heat of decaying roots and
tops brings the crop forward rapidly and
insures greater porosity and moisture in
the soil at the critical period of forming
the tuber. It not only gives the crop the
full advantages of its own decomposi
tion, but also makes soluble fertilizing
elements in the soil which might other
wise have remained inert for years.
V."e think farmers will find that how
ever old and tough their sod land may be
they will have to bring it as nearly as
possible to the condition of a ncwiy
sceded field. Very little benefit comes
from a sod that has been constantly
eaten bare and trampled down by farm
animals. The droppings of neither cattle
nor sheep are worth so much on the land
as the clover they are destroying, because
there is no way to distribute animal ma
nure so evenly as grass can be made to
grow on a field, and because, further,
where soil is heavy a small quantity of
manure cannot produce as great an ef
fect as it would if applied to bind already
rich enough in carbonaceous manures.
The fact has been frequently noted that
Canada thistles plowed under just as
they are coming into blossom will rot so
fast as to destroy the roots, and will also
greatly improve the fertility of the field.
Plowing after the thistle stems have be
come woody and harsh will frequently
kill the thistles, but it is not so good for
the soil.
An important advantage of plowing
clover early is that the land is better
fitted to resecd. If delayed till after
harvest a good catch of clover is rarely
obtained. liuraCNew Yorker.

A John Gilpin race -with variations
was run from .Northampton to "Westficlcl,
Mass., the other day. A Westfield man
had his horse attached at Northampton
lor debt and went up with the money
and paid oft" the attache. Other credit
ors, cettinir wind of it, however, got out
another attachment, and the Sheriff
started to serve it. But the AN estnclder,
hearing of it, clapped a saddle on his
horse's back and started for home and
safetj The Sheriff and assistant in a
carriage followed in hot pursuit; so on
they dashed, pursuer and pursued,
through Kasthampton and Southampton
to near the depot in Westfield, a distance
of sixteen miles, where the two parties
were only a few rods from eacn other.
The Westfield man then, knowing he was
safe, slacked up, and the Sheriff look
possession of the horse, but only to hold
it for a few minutes, when " a friend"
put in an appearance with the mortgage
deed of the animal and the Northamp
ton officer had to yield up his prize.

Statistics show that of the thousandj
who die annually a large proportion are
destroyed, not by old age, or by the natu
ral exhaustion ot vitality, but through in
temperance, or disregard, either on the
part of the sufferer or his parent?, of the
simplest laws of nature. Such being the
case and figures cannot misrepresent fact
the conclusion is that, were the causesof
intemperance, its kindred vices and a dis
regard of natural laws removed, the aver
age length of the human life time would
be extended proportionately. What agent
most rapidly, Jtnrmksxly and certain7 y will
eradicate these vices, or the tendency to
them, is the question, which has been as
