Hydrophobia beef is the latest sensntoiu in Evansville.

A shccp-shearitif: festival will be held

in LaportCfeOU the 25th.

Two horses at Huntington, belonging to a Mr. Kemp, have died of hydrophobia. Several other horses bitten have manifested symptoms of the dreadful malady.

A farmer in Carrol county, while hunting, lost a dog. Twenfy-six days after, lie found the dog, fastened in the trunk of a tree, having lived all that while without food or water.

"There is a mad cow in GrandviewThe auirnal has for severul days past refused food, bellows constantly, and appears to he iu grent distress.—Erauscille Journal.

During a recent storm in Huntington a thunderbolt smashed a pine tree in Dr. Graystou's yard, and then went through Dr. Bartcle's house, upsetting a child, rocking chair, two chairs and a barrel.

At Washington, Indiana, Iiev.. W F. Horned, of the Methodist-Episcopal church, administered the ordinance of. baptism by immersion, on the person of a little child some two years old, on last Sabbath. This is the first thing of the kind we liavo ever heard of.

INFANTICIDE.—As T). Iv Cobert, a laborer, was drinking from Buck creek, last Friday, Rome distance below where the stream is spanned by the Teetersburg ^bridge, his attention was arrested by what at first seemed only a fragment of floating calico. Curiosity, however, led him to take a stick and draw the substance to '. the suiface, when he was startled to find, and the whole neighborhood was surpris'*cd to hear, that the bundle contained the decomposed flesh and bones of an infant. —Tipton Times.

are in

formed that Dr. John A. llennings, a ^merchant of Farmland, was murdered a short distance north of that place Inst

^Saturday night, and robbed ot 81,000. •VfiThere must be a lot of desperadoes in "'^"Ithat section, and we should say that /J,

Judge Lynch will have to hold court be^forc they are cleaned out.—Muncir Times.

Rufus Wells, telegraph operator at Winchester, shot and dangerously wounded Pat Burk in the course of a free fight lust Tuesday. The shot was intoiided for G. A. Williamson, (agent for the M.U.X.,) whose liver Wells had expresscd a settled determination to cut out. Mr. W. still retains that essential organ, while Wells is held to bail in the sum of 81,500. ssli

An affray occurred In Bartholomew county last fall, between two men, about some straw, in the course of which one Btruck the other on the head with a pitchfork, and the other retaliated by shooting the first in the wrist with a revolver. Both cases were tried at the recent term of the Circuit Court in that county, and tho one that struck was fined twenty-five dollars, and the one who shot was mulcted in the sum of four.hundred dollars.

hiti&i *,«• ^4 fjt "s 5 BURGLARY.—A most daring attempt to rob the safe of S. H. Judkins it Son, grocery dealers, Mishawaka, was made on fKjt Monday night last. The robbers effected

J'^an entrance to their place of b'-siness through a window, broke open the door, j£' and then took out the safe, containing some 84,000 in money, and pulled it down the street about one block, where they set about opening it. The noise they made awakened some of Rev. Scofield's family, who gave an alarm and the rasoAls fled, just as they wcro about to obtain their prize. The safe was pretty well broken, and the door nearly opened.

VC|'| ATTEMTED SUICIDES.—We learn tbat js two of our citizeus, of tbe male spccie, attemted to shuffle off this mortal coil on

Saturday night last, by introducing "cold pisen" into their system. One tried laudanum and the othor arsenic, but both f! failed in accomplishing their intent. The A1 former not taking enough and tho latter too much. Should they conclude to make another attempt in the same direction, we would recommend strichnine or prussic acid as much more likely to prove sure.

A REVEREND SEDUCEII.—Rev. Mr. Schneider, Lutherian minister at Aurora, w&s brought to this city and placed in jail, upon the charge of seduction and bastardy. If reports aro true, he has been playing fantastic tricks with quito a num-

S\-K

ber of the female members of the congrogation. He is married, and has a respeotable family, who are weighed down with the burthen of trouble and disgrace thus heaped upon them. We understand there is considerable excitemcnt in Aurora over the disgraceful affair, and it became intensified on Wednesday,when the body of a girl recently deceased, was disinterv' V4 red, and a post mortem examination had.

V" We have not learned the result of the in4 vestigation.—Lavorencebury Register.

ATTEMPTED ASSASSINATION BY A CALF. —The Sullivan Democrat tells a funny story of a Vincennes "Sawbones," temporarily sojourning at the National Hotel, in

Sullivan. The doctor amused himself and a select audience by playing the fiddie until a late hour, and before retiring had occasion to visit an outhouse connected with tho establishment. A recent calf, apprehensive of frost, had taken refuge in the building, and when the doctor entered he fell over the frightened veal. Thinking an assassin had laid in ambush

for him, the doctor clutched the call' by the throat, and bellowed "murderuntil assistance came. At breakfast next morning the doctor indignantly resented a tender of veal cutlets, and took the first train going south.

SEWARD is mightily frightened for fear Maximilian will be caught and shot by the people of Mexico. Such a fear is natural and appropriate in Seward. It springs from that fellow-feeling which the fool had for the jackass.

FORNEY, it is said, is on the hunt after materials to write the life of Thad. Stevens. It will be a congenial hunt for Forney—something like setting a thief to catch a thief, in a friendly way.

AGRICULTURAL.

Tlie Fruit Garden. Most fanners are ambitious to possess a good orchard, but few cultivate what might strictly he termed a fruit garden. On many farms orcharding for market purposes is of doubtful profit, but on every farm a garden devoted to growing fruits for family use would be remunerative in every sense of the term.

T'IC fruit garden should not he large, :is it will not be taken care of well enough It should be located near the dwelling both for convenience in cultivating and pleasure in beholding it it should be sheltered under the lee of the buildings, or a hill, and surrounded by a dense, high evergreen hedge, or a tall, close board fence, or stone wall. A sunny, warmly exposed location should be chosen, and the soil should be thoroughly drained, well enriched, and deeply dug up. Tn short, make a good beginning, for when the trees are planted you cannot draiu, subsoil, or change the location without incurring great expense.

Half an acre will make a fair sized fruit garden. Let us say that it is eight rods one way and ten the other that it is lougcst north or south, and is inclosed with a tight board fence or stone wall eight feet high.

Now let us see what we can plant in it. First, we will have a border on the south, west and east sides, four feet wide, planted to grapes, apricot*, and nectarines, which are trained against the fence. Next to this border on the west and cast sides only we will have a strip of grass eiglil root witle. The two entrances to the garden shall be on the south ends of these grass strips or walks. These are our only walks they serve for turning places for the horses in cultivating the

garden, and the grass will mulch the strawberry bed. Along the south end of the garden devote ten feet to strawberries, then set seven rows, live feet apart, with raspberries, blackberries, currants and gooseberries, then four rows of dwarf pears, and as many of peaches, planting the trees eight feet apart each way, and heading theui low then you will have room left for two rows of cherry and one of plumv and, onevof.,apple trees. j|f|V 'Phis variety and quantity of fruit well taken care of will supply an ordiuary family

Fording Ilees. W. 1). 15., Hast llardwick, Yt., writes that iu his experience, "the best feed for bees is honey if you have it, but if not granulated white sugar melted, having water enough added to make it about as thick as honey. This makes a good substitute for bee's honey as a food, and is not very expensive. Maple sirup will answer, after the bees commence to fly, but is not safe to feed long before the spring opens. A little feed now will be likely to produce early swarms from strong stocks. 1 had live weak swarms, and on examining them about the first ot February commenced to feed on sugar, as above once a week, and they have remained quiet, and come, for their feed wlieu the hive is opened. I have fed by pouring the melted sugar 011 a piece of comb and placing above the movable frames of the

hive. W. \V. FisiiEHThautaii(|ua Co., N. .V. writes: "I have learned from experience in bee-keeping, by observation, that bees can be wintered without loss as easy as a herd of cattle. Feed the bees with sirup made of sugar or refuse honey, in the fall: and also in the spring with the same, and unbolted rye flour and water for the young bees, and there will be no danger of losing a swarm. The following recipes for making artificial bee food arc given :—For Making Sirup.—To ten pounds of sugar add four pounds of water boil five minutes, skim well and cool

to give them a call. They are making all kinds of castings, such as

Use good brown or coffee sugar. F01 Preparing Canilieil Honey for Bee Feed. —Place the honey in a kettle with a little water over afire and let it remain un til the comb is entirely melted then set off to cool and the wax will rise to the top, which may be removed, and the lion ey, if too thick, thinned sugar sirup may be mixed with it to advantage

About Plows. It i.s frequently the case that a farmer will buy two plows of tho same make and pattern, and one will prove to be a much easier runniug and holding plow than the other. Why? It may be that the cast nigs arc warped and do not fit together well but far more generally, because the iron iu the two moldboards is not of tho same temper,—the plow with the softest moldboard being the poorest of the two. The furrow adhering more closely to the soft moldboard, makes the draft of the plow heavier, and, likewise, pulls the plow around to the right, away from"the land, therefore making it run unsteady. As an illustration take two pleasure sleighs the one having on hard cast shoes and the other soft east shoes. When these two sleighs run over piece of bare ground the one with soft shoes draws very much

WHOLE

the hardast,-^nd''ho8 tho:rtt&stside draft. Tt^is (juitq^difficult for furuaeemen to make their moldboards always of the same proper temper, and especially is it so where they melt soft machinery iron at the same heat with harti plow iron. As a general rule the best and most uniform plows come from those firms who make that particular tool a'speciality.anda stu? dy. Their mechanics become familiar with selecting and melting iron for that purpose, and their castings are apt to be fitted together with extra care.

PLOW MAKEIU

Salting Mutter.

It is becoming a very prevalent complaint, among butter dealers, that farmers are not careful enough as to the kind and quantity oi' salt they use iu prepariug butter for market. Some put in too much others hardly enough, while too many arc careless as to the quantity of the article used. Ordinary barrel salt is reported to contain so much lime as to cause a soapy texture to the butter, while lacking the preservative power essential to good flavor and protracted keeping. An exchange states that tho Ashton salt, imported in sacks- of four bushels, combines all the essontials necessary to the preservation of butter,—the salt costing about one-fourth more than that commonly in use. Tt pays well to be particular iu everything relating to butter manufacture—a good article, cleanly made and properly put up being certain to remunerate the maker for all'trouble and expense, by the enhanced price it is certain to bring in the market.

En. RKVIKW:—Like every other housekeeper and lover of good things, I am disappointed if the "Domestic Column" is omitted from the Review, and therefore send my mite to help fill it: 0 ])I TCII CIIKESE.—Put thick sour milk or fresh buttermilk in a suitable vessel, and set it over the fire where it will scald slowly never having the heat great

than tbe hand can bear, if cooked to

much it is dry and hard. As soon as the whey separates from the curd dip the whole carefully into a colander or seive, to let the whey run off, and squeeze the curd as dry as possible with tho hand then add sweet cream, a lump of butter and a piucb of salt, according to the amount of curd you have. Mix t-.liis well, aud press your chccse into a bowl, and. you will have an excellent dish.
