And said: "We need m re help, we do; Let's atari the Jam a-praingt tool n .. No sooner said than done. That day Each Jew was ordered out to pray,. ' But, like the Turks, tney prayed in vala . The sun grew hotter, and the ground ' Was burned tor miles and miles around.

But there's another card to play: Make all the dogs of Christiana pray."

At once each Christian was at work. A-praying, guarded by a Turk, Who on the Prophet's beard had amors To kill each dog of them by morn TTnlese it rained. So all that sight The Christians prayed with main and might The morning broke, and, lo! the rain " . Came down in floods, nor would it deign. To cease till all the Turks around Begged it to stop, feet they'd be drowned. When it had cleared the Turks came out, Forgetting there had been a drought, . And mad that Christian dogs could pray And get sn answer right away. ' " Our AUah loves us not !" they cried, , ., uIt iant ao," the sage wpfied ; "He loves to bear nis faithful pray . -- So much, he kept the rain away. . 4But, when the Christian dogs knelt down Great Allah's fsce assumed a frown ; To listen to them he wouldn't deign. And so, to shut them up sent rain.

A Wrestle With Niagara. I wa3 standing about thirty or forty yards in advance of the Clifton that is, thirty or forty yards nearer the Horseshoe," along the brink of the rooks, and opposite the American fall. The ground must have been about the same Iteight as the opposite fail ; but, owing to the immense hill down which the rapids rush, it was possible to distinguish -any object of the size of a boat a considerable distance above the fall, so that, now it was pointed out to nic, I saw, in the middle of the rapid, a hrtge log of wood, the trunk of a tree, which had lodged there some years before, and upon it a black speck. This, after some observation, I perceived to move. It was a man. "Yes ; he and his two companions had, on the previous night, been rowing about some distance above the falL By some means or other they had ventured too near the rapids, had lost all command of their boat, and had been hurried away to destruction. : It was supposed that about half a mile above the fall the boat had upset, and with two wretched men still clinging to it, went over the fall at about 9 or 10 o'clock at night, while the third man was driven against this log of wood, climbed upon it, and sat astride of nit through the darkness of the night, amid the - roar, the turmoil and he. dashing spray of the rapids.; I crossed the river, ascended the rock by the railway, and hurried to the spot, where I found him so near that I could almost distinguish his countenance. He was then lying along the. log, grasping it with both arms, and appeared exhausted to the last degree. . He was evidently as wet from the spray a though he had been standing under water; By this time people were, assembling, and different plans for his rescue were proposed and discussed on all sides; already, indeed; one effort had been made. A small boat had been firmly lashed to a strong cable, and dropped down to him from the bridge, which crossed the rapid between- the mainland and Goat island, about sixty yards above the log.This boat had proceeded a few yards in safety, was upset, spun round like a piece of cork at the end of a thread by the force of the water,- which finally snapped the cable in two, and the boat disappeared over the falL But now a dispatch had been sent to Buffalo (a distance of a little more than 20 miles) by electric telegraph, desiring that a life-boat should be sent by the first train, 9:30 A. M.t and this in time arrived, borne on the shoulders of about twenty men and a splendid boat' she was large, built entirely of sheet iron, with air-tight chambers; a boat that could not sink. She was girt round with strong ropes, and two new two-inch cables brought with her. All this arrangement naturally took up much time, and the poor wretch's impatience seemed extreme, so that it was thought advisable to let him know what was going en. This was done by means of a sheet, upon which was written in large letters in Dutch (his native language) " The lifeboat is comhVg." He stood up, looked intently for a minute, and then nodded his head. "When the boat was at last launched, the excitement was intense. Two cables, each, held by many men, were let down from either end of the

bridge, so that they might -have some

commana in directing the course ot the boat down the river. She seemed, literally to dance: upon the surface of the water like a cork. The rapid consists of a number of small falls distributed unevenly over all parts of the river, so that there are thousands of cross enrrenta, eddies and whirlpools, which it would be utterly impossible to avoid, and in which was the danger of transit for any boat between the bridge and the log. The life-boat's course was ateady at first; she arrived at the first fall;, she tripped up and swung round with a rush, but continued her course safely, only half fiHed with water. Again she descended with safety, but at length approaching the log she became unmanageable, swinging either way with immense force, spinning completely over, and finally dashing against the log with snch violence that 1 fully expected the whole thing, man and all, to have been dislodged and harried down tjie rapid. But, no. it stood firm -the boat had reached its destination! ' Yet alas I how useless was its position. It lay completely on its side above the log, and with its hollow inside directed toward the bridge, pl&yed upon by the whole force of the current, which fixed its keel firmly against the log. It seemed immovable. The man himself climbed toward it, and in vain tried to pull, lift or move the boat ; nor was it moved until, both cables being brought to one side of the river by the united force of fifty or sixty men, she was dislodged, and swung down the rapid upside-down, finally pitching headlong beneath ah eddy, entangling one of her cables on the rocks, and there lying beneath a heavy fall of water, until in the course of the day, one cable being broken by the efforts of the men to dislodge her, and the other by the sheer force of the current, she went over the falls the second sacrifice to the poor fellow, who still ching to the log, swayed between hope and fear. The loss of this boat seemed a great blew to him, and he appeared, as far as we could judge at a distance; at times to give way to the utmost despair. A third boat was now brought wooden, very long and fiat-bottomed." Its passage was most fortunate, and as she floated down, even alongside of the log without accident, hope beamed in every countenance, and we ail felt the man might be saved. Hope also bad revived in him.". He stood for some time upon the loor mak

ing signals to those who directed the I

He eagerly seized her, drew her toward hiiamnped into her, and made signs to them to draw him up. This was commenced, but some of the tackle had caught, and it was deemed necessary to let it loose for an instant This was done ; the boat floated a few feet down the rapid, swung round the lower end of the log, entangling the cable beneath it, and. there remained immovably fixed. Once more the poor fellow's work began. He drew off one of his boots and bailed

ujv uuav, u7 fusucu nit mid biuitwcu upon it, and used every possible exertion to move the boat, but in vain ! An hoar wm spent in these fruitlvftft effort

an hour of terrible suspense to allwho beheld him.. He worked well, for he worked for his life. Three months after, this boat retained its position, nor will it move until the rocks $rind its cable in two, or the waters tear it piecemeal into shreds. " Another plan must be devised, and this, with American promptitude, was soon done. A raft of from twenty to thirty feet long and five feet broad was knocked together with amazing rapidity. It consisted of two stout poles, made fast, five feet asunder, bynailiug four or fire nieces of twe-inch board at each extremity; thus the machine consisted of a sort of skeleton raft, with a small stage at either end. On one of these stages that to which the cables (cf which there were two) were lashed was tightly fixed a large empty cask, for the sake of its buoyancy, on the other a complete net-, work of cords, to which the man was to lash himself; also a tin can of refreshments, he having taken nothing since the evening before; three or four similar cans, by the way, had been let down to him already, attached to strong pieces of new line, but the cords had in ever instance been snapped, and the food lost. The raft was finished, launched and safely let down to the log. The poor fellow committed himself to its care, hi lashed his legs firmly, and then signaled to draw 'npv The raft advanced under the first pull, but its head, owing to the great light cask, dipped beneath it, and as the raft still advanced the water broke over it to such a depth that the man was obliged to raise himself upon till fours, keeping his chin well elevated to avoid being drowned. We expected at every pull to see his head go under, but alas ! they pulled in vain, for the front of the raft, pressed down by the weight of falling water, had come in contact with s rock and would not advance. The ropes were slackened, she fell back, but again hitched in her return. It was then determined to let her swing to another part of the rapiu, where the stream did not appear quite so impassable. This was done, and a second attempt to draw it up was made, half way between the log and the opposite shore (a email island). This also failed from the same cause, therefore it was proposed to endeavor to let' the raft float down and swing round upon the island. This was commenced, but with the old result, the cable was caught in the rocks, and the raft remained stationary. However, she was floating easily, and the poor fellow could restb Early in the day, for the afternoon was now far advanced, one of the large ferry boats (built expressly for crossing beneath the falls) had been brought, but had lain idle. This was now put into requisition, and . nobly she rode toward the raft, while in breathless silence we all watched her as she dipped at the various falls, and each time recovered hersell I shuddered as she was launched, for i began to see that the man could not be saved by a boat ; a boat never could return against a rapid, however well able to float, down it. No sooner would her bow come in contact 'with a fall than it would dip, fill and spin round, as did the first skiff which was lost. ,. . The poor fetifow himself was' getting impatient visibly so. He untied his lashing,- stood upright upon the raft, eagerly waiting to seize the boat and jump into her. She had but one more fall to pass, and that fall was situated just above where he stood ; she paused at the brink of it, swung down to it like lightning, and, as he leaned forward to seize her, she rose on the returning wave, struck him in the chest, and he struggled hopelessly in the overwhelming torrent. The exclamation of horror, for it was not a cry, which ' burst from the thousands who by this time were assembled I shall never forget, nor . the breathless silence with which we watched him, fighting with the waters as they hnrricd him along upright, waving both hands above his head. We lost, sight of him at intervals, yet again and again1 he reappeared, and I thought hours must have passed in lieu of one brief half minute. But the end came at last ; once I saw his arms wildly waved above his head, and, in an instant, the crowd turned from the spot' in dead silence. The man was lost.

The Collision Between Benton and . i'oote. Mrs. Swisshelm gives a graphic description, in the Chicago TViomhc, of the scene between. Senators Benton and Fobte, in April, 1850. The insult was no sooner given by the latter than there was a scuffle off to the right of the Speaker, and the scuffle soon came to be a 1 perfect hurly-burly of overturning chairs, men springing over desks, crying "Order! order!" and above all the roar of the lion, "Unhand me! Stand off, gentlemen!" All eyes were turned in that direction, and all members seemed anxious to gain the spot where Benton was roaring and struggling to get away from as many men as could get hold of him, his coat turned back from his shoulders, and he trying to leave in the hands of his captors. In spite of all they could do he got into the space around the seats, and made some progress toward the place where the foe stood, on the edge of the middle isle, near the door. Nobody held Foote, or tried to hold him. Indeed, he seemed to be forgotten, and stood craning his neck to Veep an eye on the enemy, until it seemed as if Benton would get away from the whole crowd and through the fast filling space between them, leaving his coat behind him, when the doughty little man started at double quick down the isle toward the Speaker's desk, drawing out as he went the largest sized pistoL As he ran he looked over his left shoulder and backward with pale face, and when two or three feet from the railing turned partially, and stood with the pistol pointing downward and his finger on the trigger. Foote must have stood ten minutes, if not longer, almost unnoticed, pistol in hand, finger on trigger, weapon against the outside of his leg, watching the movement of the crowd He still stood there, still held the pistol, when order was restored. He then uncocked HF placed it an inside coat pocket, and stood asking to make an explanation. In that explanation he said: "I saw the gentleman coming and advanced to the Speaker's desk." He had wantonly pro voked a quarrel and then :: "advanced9 with his back to the foe to take position behind the heaviest part of the rampart which separated them. The case was one of many instances in which the insolence and bullying of the . slave power quailed before .the spirit of freedom:; Mrs. Swisshelm was in . the gallery at the time, and described the tocone for the. Tribune. ...

. T Women Wedded. The Boston Jerald prints the following strange story from a correspondent at Dover, N. H., and it is given for what it is worth. '; The writer vouches for its truthfulness: Ten years ago two persons were united in marriage by a Congregational clergyman of this State. The ceremony was. performed in a small town not many' miles from this city. They lived together as husband and wife for more than-nine years, havingresided in several different places, a part of the time in this place. A few months ago the wife petitioned for a divorce on the ground that her husband was a woman. On examination it was found to be as she had said. That she dressed in female apparel when she first became acquainted with her, but told her she was a man. It was proved that she was the divorced wife of a merchant of New York, and bad one child.

AGRICULTURAL NOTES.

T 1 X J 1

x host wiu no penewaie so ueep-wjiou the ground, is dry as when it is very wot. There is no crop raised which yields 10 large an amount of food and with so little labor as Indian corn. Fakmers in New Jersey and Pennsylvania are giving considrable attention to the culture of jute plants. Decayed grain of. any kind is highly injurious to stock. It has a paralyzing effect upon the animals fed with it, of tentimes causing death. 8rcra tan-bark has been plowed into a compact clay soil with the best results, as it "rendered the soil mellow and increased its warmth. Ewes in lamb are very liable to take cold, and when exposed to wet and'oold weather, or allowed to lie on the ground, are likely to suffer abortion. Pastures that have been fed a fov seasons will generally produoe more milk, or make more fat, than those which have been newly seeded down Ashes are;' for many soils a standard fertilizer. Places where a tree or brushheap has been burned off show the effects of the manuring for years. It is on old saying, " The land never forgets ashes." A Wisconsin farmer, twenty-three years ago, planted a piece of laud unfit for cultivation with black walnut trees. The trees are now from sixteen to twenty inches through, and have been sold for 527,000. Sxow melts away from drained lands sooner than on those undrained, hence the drained soils are ready for plowing much sooner. In Scotland it is claimed that the harvest is from ten to fifteen days earlier on" drained than on undrained lands. The moisture in which one kind of seed would flourish would be destructive to another class, causing them to rot instead of forcing growth. The heat necessary to start one class of seeds would dry up and utterly destroy the gum of another class. . The application of rules requires a mixture of common sense, and observation. ; We have noted, from time to time, the constantly decreasing area in Great Britain devoted to cereal crops. The agriculture of the country is -gradually changing from grain growing to stock feeding and dairying." From the invaluable agricultural returns of Great Britian, published by Mr. Giffen, it appears that since 1870 there has been an increase of 2,500,000 of acres in permanent grass; No branch of husbandry furnishes more agreeable occupation than forest culture. It affords pleasant diversion from the protracted labors of the field.

and employment for long winters, that.

witnout lc mi g prove muiiuumous. utelhgentiy and systematically managed, our forests will yield profitable returns, not only to our own, but to all. succeeding generations Proportion of Cream in Milk. The first fifth portion of milk from the cow ccstr.nins about one-twentieth part of cream; the second fifth, one-twelfth; the last fifth, one-sixth. ; How important then to get the last and richest drop, even if it were not true that cows are quickly dried up by a slovenly practice of leaving a small portion in the udder.

Cows will continue to give a flow of milk

at a much longer period when milked dry. Farmers, it will be seen, receive a double benefit by such a course. First, there is more cream in the milk, and second, the flow will continue longer, two requisites in all dairy countries. Ewes in lamb should, as far as practicable, be fed and, sheltered separately from the non-breeding animals, as the crowding and more rapid movements of the latter ore apt to -result injurionsly, while such separation makes : more convenient certain little attentions to which breeding ewes are entitled aa the yearning season approaches, and which may be profitably accordejaV to them. Advantage will be found in subdivision of the several ages and sexes into as many smaller lots as circumstances will admit of, as such course lessens the liability to crowding aud over-feeding of the stronger animals at the expense of the weaker ones. ' It also brings each animal more directly under the eye of the attendant, who" will the more readily detect the first symptoms of deviating from the desired thrift. Selecting Seed Corn. Professor A. E. Blount,' of the Colorado Agricultural College at .Fort Collins,, gives these views on selecting seed corn: "If the stock be a healthy one and free from injury by insects or weather, the topmost ear is always the largest, and best formed, and has the best filled grain, provided the parents from which it came were perfect. Every variety of standard corn produces its best ear nearest the tassel for reasons that are quite evident Being nearest it receives the pollen first and in greater quantity than those below it another reason is that it is the natural distance from the soil, etc., etc. A careful examination oi the stalks in every stage of their growth always shows that the lowest ear has the longest shank, the next has a shorter one and so on to the topmost one, which sets close upon the stalk. It shows also that the lowest ear is the smallest and the top ear the largest, as above stated. " ' Bedding for Cattle. There is no. farm work, considering the outlay,' that pays so large dividends as the procuring of some sort of bedding for the cattle, for it not only keeps them clean a great ooint in itself but also promotes their growth and thrif tness, and the additional accumulation for the manure pile will more than pay for tho labor. There is usually a large amount of litter thai goes to waste that if thns utilized would be of great service. Straw, oats, cut corn butts, etc., are valuable, and fine, sand is not objectionable, for in itself it is one of the most cleanly of beds, and as it is a large absorber of liquids, and is of real benefit to clay land, there is no solid reason why a few loads of it may not be judiciously . used. A farmer of our acquaintance late in the fall takes his trucks, puts in long stakes, and makes a four pt-d&4p box and gathers forest leaves. One man gathers them with rake and basket These leaves are stored away in ' an unused stable, and what can be crowded into a bushel basket make a fine bed for a stable of cows for a' couple of nights, and are . fine abgorbants There is no farmer but that can provide bedding of some kind, and also have dry, wholesome stables for his cattle, and if he consults his. interests, and once fully tests the vslue of plenty bedding, he will always in the future practice bedding hia cattle and stock. Biblical Authority for Immersion. " Ji Kentucky preacher rose to speak and opened the Bible. : The ' first verse uia ota. h irTwnffl to be Tha -

voice of the turtle shall be heard m the

land." "Brethren," saitt ne, -ai nrs sight one ! would not think there was much in this text, but on a little consideration you will see there's a great deal in it. Now, you all know what a turtle is. : If you've been along by a pond you've seen them sitting on a log sunning themselves. Now, it is said, 'The voice of the turtle shall be heard in the land.7 But the turtle hasn't any voice, that anybody ever heard, so it must be the noise he makes in plunging off the log into the water. Hence we must conclude that immersion is meant, and that immersion will become universal." Boraclc Acid for the Eyes. The experiments made by Dr. Theobald with borucic acid, in certain opthalmic diseases having proved of very marked advantage in its application, he was led to try it in affections of the eye attended with discharge, and has found it a most efficacious remedy. From its possessing only slight astringent power, he is disposed to attribute

much of its pood effects to its antiseptic properties, with which is combined a certain amount of sedative or anodyne power; os shown in its operation in cases of scrofulous keratitis. He employs Hrlutio is of from two to four or marc grains to the ounce, which are dropped into tiie eye three or four times a day, NOTHING ON EAUTH SO COOI. . From tho "Worcester (Mass.) Spy.

Shiftman, 2804 Calumet A.ve , Chicago, Ilh 1 Bachelors in History. In antiquity it was considered unpatriotic to remain unmarried. Hence bachelors were subject to peculiar disabilities in the Spartan nnd Roman code. They were obliged to pay extra taxes, and under Augustus they were barred from the inheritance of real estate,, except from their nearest relatives. Onlj one of our Presidents was a bachelor, and he was a failure. Bachelors art not as successful in life as married men. It is said that one of Washington's associated patriots in the revolutionary struggle was a celibate. All had the influence of marriage and' social life. Hence . tlie tendency against wedlock which marks the present day. is among the worst features in society, " Speaking of marriage, it should be a complete union of affections and of intellectual powers. It may be added, that a man's wife should to a certain degree be hie business partner; She - should know something of his risks and financial difficulties, and in this , way the burden of life is often divided, Walter Scott concealed from his wife his connection with the Bannatynes, which caused his ruin. It is one of the best features in General Grant's character, that he takes his wife along and gives her a full share of those dignities and honors which spring from national gratitude. . ,. . , . ..
