Quantity it all tin- (armer 9eenn to desire in his manure heap. He does not stop to consider the .piality nor value, br.t judges it by the number of cubic feet it occupies. And yet there is as much variation in the composition of the manure in the farm lis :ji us there is in the different grades of animate on a farm. Take a ton of well-rotted manure, as it is usually found on every farm, rwi it will consist of about 550 pounds of orginic matter ad about sixty pounds of mineral matter. This is, in round numbers, pounds of dry matter. The remaining 1,4 90 founds is water. And to still further reduce the actual value, as far as the smallest asiount will demonstrate, there is much valne'icss matter in the dry ti'.tO poun.ls, for of that amonnt only twelve pounds are potash, eighi pounds phosphoric act land thirteen pounds nitrogen, riving a total of only thirty-three pounds. This shows badly against the farmer's prospects and hopes from his ton of well-rotted barnyard manure; hut nevertheless this conclusion has been arrived at only after careful experiments. And ti still farther detract from the value of the nen-p, it is to be observed that the above applies only to good manure tli it has beeil well c-.mvos:ed, protected and managed. In manure heaps that have been expoced to the bat of the sun and drenching ruins" the amount of mineral matter is still less. These twelve pounds of actual potash are valued at 1, the phosphoric acid at eiehty cents and the nitrogen nt $3 2 total value ot the ton of barnyard manure, $4.00. Tbee prices, of course, (lactam, and may be at times higher or lower. Tin? actual potaidi is derived, in commercial salts, from the sulphate and minute, the acids in the salts merely add ng to the belk, but, being combined with the potash, uiust be used with it. '6-t with the phosphoric acid and nitrogen. There is in ths manure heap, however, small proportions of milter that are not soid aiuon: commercial fertilizes, such as mis;neia, iro.i, rt.iuDif salt and carbon. The latter is in the manure heap in good quan tity, but is not considered valuable. J;i -nue is bought in the muriate of potash, and even in lime we rind magnesia. The iron not desired. Hut the-e articles are not sold U3sr.cn in the usual commercial fertilizer.' a:id farmers do m t expect to lind thei.i tli-re. Then there are many-compounds formed by the Testable acid.- in the manure heap entirely unknown. A constant moveiutii' of the particles - in progress therein, and new compound- are firmed daily. Still, if the proper ingredients are not added to the heap for the manufacture of flrst-clas--maiitire, n chemical process can cre:Ue if. The true value and . tbsiency of the manure are derived from tha' which the farmer adds to it. It is aniitt.ue tus'.i;HJi that anything will make good manure. Anything will increase the hullc and assist in retaining the nutritive piulit.es, but after bulk has been acquired we must expend labor to haul it to the fields. The preservation of manure is one of the rcost iiiiponant ma'.'ers lor the farmer s attention. It is u'ni.illy the me thod with him to haul everything tj the barnyard to btrampled by cattle, tnd there remain until it is ready o be heaped. After bedi- heaped he thinks he hasd-;!e his auty until ready to haul it out. Daring this interval a fw drenching raing will deprive itof all that ivaluable, ami the scorching ruys of the sun will assist in this leteriorating prccess. All manure then should be kept under shelternot a very tight, clo-e roof.but iu such man ner as to protect it atrnnst being drenched A few leaks here and there that will admit some water are b.-neiicial, care being re quired to guard against leaching only. As to exposure to the sun, that should never be done under any circumstances. The black, dh-'agroeable stuff that flows away in the drains after heavy rains can ies olF the wealth of the farm with it, leaving the dross for liitti to haul to the fields. I'.ui aj the bulk: still remains the farmer contents himself with tiie retlection that he has added so many loads of manure to his fields, and when harvest arrives he is ready to declare that farming daes not pay. "lie has but to guard again-tt loss in his manage ment, and half the battle is won. Protect the manure heap, for it is your bank that contains the wealth of the farm. Fighting; Cntwom, How to get rid of the cutworm is an in " quiry that is often made, for it is one of the mosc destructive enemies with which we have to contend. Saltpeter, common salt. soot and many other things have been tried. but all to no good result, l'lace a cutworm in a saucer of salt and he will not he harmed ; sprinkle soot on him und he will not wince, liut he dots not like frost. Cold kilis him, .and he scon yields to a cold application. What should be. done for his extermination is to plough early. Turn over the ground in the fall if possible,. but as it is too late mv for fall ploughing, we must plough in the sprint? as soon as the ground will permi Plough deeply, and do not roll or harro until the ground Las had one or two fretz in its. If this plan does not rid tue land of them, then the following fall vervlatein the season the ground should b. ploughed and allowed to remain till spring, when it should b. pious: 'cd the cross wa v. One or two seasons of such treatment wul kill them out etlec tually. '2 here if another consideration in the matter. The frosts will awist in pulverizing tne soil c nd add to its fertility. A constant freczirg and lha.vit.g will enable the soil to , give elf particle of matter for plant toxi that would be otherwise dormant or inert. LvHi witk mt trie cut-worm, fail and early spring ploughing is very beneficial. I we cutc- .rm is more obstructive in sfiehL that were formerly od than in th that hav bee a planted to corn or sowed with wheat. When und is turned over early in the full it enab.es iu thousands of occu pants (cutworms) to get down very deep.. but later is the season a ploughing find theni slowed awuv tor winter And brir.gs theoa to the surface this time, however,.in a condition unfavorable to their eeurity. After a frost, the worm, if exosed, is too much under the intluenca of temperature uj bury haj.-elf for the winter. 2Jany ot them are ktvled at the time, lint when the fail ploughing is followed by an eariy spring turning of the soil th?y are caught by the frosts at once. It requires but a eingle season to clean tiieai oat of cultivated fields with tili treatment, and two seasons will pet tlicu out of laud that has been in grass. The practice should be continued every year, not only as a precaution against the cutworm, but also for the beneüt gained by the soil from such treatement. A firmer who was once afflicted with cutworms in bis soil, in his endeavor to get rid of them by this process, was afterward forced to admit that in his case the worms had taaght birn a lesson in compelling him to turn over his land late in the fall and early in spring, a practice he haa since rigidly adhered to. . , Ration for Ueni. ' Fanny Field, who is famous for her success in making har hens lay in winter, tells the Prairie Farmer how she feeds them, as follows: "My way of feeding fowls in win-

!fr and it works wonderfully well is to g.ve them a warm breakfast every morning just as soon as they can tee to eat, a few na ul-ful of grain at noon, an 1 a full feed of grain at highe The warm breakfast is iuadn of veg etable?, turnips, beets, carrotsor potatoes, bailed and mashed up with wheat brau; or oit meal rcaUled with skim milk; or refuse from the kitchen boiled up and the toup thickened with bran, and when sweet apple are plenty, we boil them, and mix with corn meal sametimes one thing

and sometimes another; we don t believe iu feeding one thüig all the time, and the hens don't believe in it cither. I don't think that my biddies need the noon fed because they are hungry, but I give it to them to make them scratch forexcrciie and to keep them out of mischief. 1 scatter it nround among the litter under the shed and let them dig it oaL This 'lunch' is generally oats or buckwhest, and once in a while sunflower seed. At n übt I generally feed corn, but if I could get wheat cheap enough I should feed that ut least half of the time, ly fowls have wacer or milk by them all Jhe time, and frreen food is supplied by fastening cabbageheads up where the fowls can help theiuse.vcs. Sometimes, when somebody has tune to attend to it, we give them a cnange of green food in the shape of raw turnips or sweet apples choppe 1 hue. 1 o winters ago I look a new departure on the meat question, and now, instead of fussing to cooK it, and dealing out a little at a time. I just hang out a piece and let the fowls eat all ttuy want. When they have m.-at within their reach ail the time there is not the slightest danger of their eating too macn. I get cheap meat from the butcher, a:xl I a "ii sure 1 am jtaid twice over for the outiay. C ushed oyster shells, gravel, charcoil and cruhed raV b mes are kept in the houses ad the time. This raw bone is an ex cellent thing for fowls, und would he the iat article of food that I would think of dropping from my biddies' bill of fare. Where the crushed oyster shell can not be obtained, lane iu some other shape will do just as weil. One of my neighbors had two of his rooms ila.stered this tail, and he saved all the old plaster for Iiis hens. The poultry raise; who neglected to get a supply of gravel under cover before tue ground froze up must d the next best thiu feed their broken dishes to their fowls. UreaK them into bits of a suitable size, and it will do ju-st us well as gravel. 1 believe in salting ail tne sou food, and I used to put in a dash of pepper, sometimes mustard or ginger. once iu a while, and I honestly thought the fowls were benefited thereby; but doubts are creeping in, and I am very much in ciined to drop everything except the salt.' Salts for Animals. Journal of Chemlslry.l It is well-known that herbivorous animals are fond of common salt, and this is true of v.ild animals as well as ot those domesticated by man. Carnivorous animals, on the other I and, either have no liking for salt, or sho a positive aversion to it. Cats, for example, will rarely touch salt meat. The diiierence is not easily explained. The blood of boih classes of animals contain a cer.ain amount of soda salts, but the quantity of soda in a vegetanle diet is not necessarily less than in one of llesh. A German experimenter, Herr Uunge, has been the first to suggest a plau-ible solution of the enigma. A vegetable dit furnishes tw ce as mucli potadi as a tlesh diet does, aJa K occurred to him that the greater sapply ot potash must be attended with a reuter waste of soda. To test this theory experimentally, he put himstlf ujon a pertecly uniform diet of beet, bread, butter, ug-ir and a small quantity of salt. When, by di!y analysis ot the urine, he found that theqiiantity of soda and iotash eetttedhad b.coiiie constant ha proceeded to taäe such a dose of potaäh of salts during tne dav as Would raise the amount of potato in his diet to a level with that daily consumed by a herbivorous animal. Tau result was an tmuieiiiaie excretion of cutoiide of sodium, in the urine, the amount being at once increased three-;'o;d. Much potash was, ot course, also pa-sod. Tne experiment wus repeated at various limest, employing different salts of jotu ii, in evi-ry case projucmg an immediate eXvre.ioii oi soda. Uunge believes that thi.? tendency of po.ash to produce a great waste o. soda in tti 4 system is the causu ot the deS re shown bv herbivorous animals for c.iuiiion M-.tt. Tii-ir Vfi'i.ible diet is gertr-rally rery rich in potash, an 1 they uiaiu ctively seek, tin uOiinio.-al sJl'l-lv of oda. ÖooaUoea not scciu lo be an essential ingredient i plants, ba; it is certainly indispensable in the animal economy. In the muscle and in t.ie biood corpuscles pota-ih is an essential constitutelit; but in the tiuid pordoti of the blood, potash is li'iuroiiS and if injected, evea in saiuall do es, produces deatu. .Soda salts, on tiie other tiund, can be injected itn satciy, and their preseuce in tut blood io essentia; to the continuation of vital pro cesses. Vaccine Applied to Sheep. f PitrU diiath to Loadoa Times. At alarm near Atel tin experiments were made yesterday by M. i'asteur in the pres ence ot a host of specialists on the duration of the actum of autüraiic vuccine us applied to sheep. Jt will be reincm&ertd that six months ag M. i'asteur vaccinated a number ot sli-ep with anthraiic vaccine, the imme diate result being to pieserveaii these sheep Itotu atiinaiic virus, whereas sheep not vaccinated succumbed within twenty-four nouns to tne lauer, lue question was now long trie iniiunce ot such vjccine would hut. Yesterday's experiments proved tuat it lasts mx liK'iiiti.-. Äijd tney will be continued Irom luonlli to month to ascertain the exact duration of 11. preserva tive. On Thursday four un vaccinated cheep were inoculated with anthranc virus, as also f urof the sheep vaccinated- six months agoi Two of the unvaciiiuted shtep expired within twenty-four hours and the other two subsequently, whereas the sheep vaccinated six monuis ago udmirabjy resisted the ac tion oi the virus. Another curious fact Was ascertained. A lamb, the offspring of a vac ein ted sheep, was inoculated with the virus. It expired within twenty-four hour tnus proving that the vaccine virtue is not transmitted 1 ereditarily. The Seine-t-Mame Agricultural Society presented M. ras:eiiroa Thursday ith a gold medal, and a iaiiquet was held at which tne great ser vice rendered to agriculture by his discov ery was warmly testified to. Th Science of the Farmern. The breaking up ot tue winter can not now be long delayed, and nobody is so deeply interested in the weather for the next few weeks as the farmer, because the sucje-s of many of bis crops, to no inconsiderable extent, depends upon the way win ter ends and spring begins. From time be yond memory the farmers have been weather-wise folk, through me necessities of their business, and little disposed to c insult other oracles than their own. limes have lately changed iu this reuect, however, and many of the farmers who are now turning over in (heir minds ihe best plana for meeting the exigencies of this anomalous season, und insuring success fur the crops of 1JSS2, will acknowledge their indebtedness to an education that is nt altogether based upon farm traditions. While this country is apparently yet behind Europe in the facilities . which it affords for agricultural education, yet a very gratifying progress has been made in this respect, and the study of farming a? a science is spreading rapidly. What has already been accomplished Is shown in an exceedingly interesting article by Miss Annie Toiman Smith in a recent number of Education. She poinu out the results of the act of Congress of liÄJ, by which certain public lands were donated to States and Territories on condition that Colleges for the benefit of agriculture and the mechanic arts be established by those States which accepted the donation. Fortv-six school" or departments of Colleges and Universities have been endowed from this source. In fortv four of these as well as in the Bussev Institution at Harvard, which was not so endowed, special provision

is made for the training of agriculturist.

Many ot the new schools at first seemed ta be failures. They had to encounter many difficulties at.d prejudices. After a few years, however, they learned to do their work better, and they show results ! high practical value. Knowledge of meteorology, vegetable phvsiolcgy, veterinary science. and cberuisirv as related to agriculture has been spread among those in whose hands it can be most useful. Miss Smith also points out that intimate relations ere springing up between the agricultural Colleges and the various State associations for the promotion of agricultural interests. There is yet a great deal to be done before these Colleges can be regarded as accomplishing their object, but they have at least ruadea eood beginning, and there is is no danger that the progress of agricultural education will ever go backward in this coun try. The Castor OH IJean. A pamphlet issued by a New York tallow and soap inanufactarii.g concern gives the following brief instructions regarding the planting and cultivation of the castor bean, that may be suggestive to growerj of the plant in its appropriate latitude: "Almost any soil that will produce Indian corn will answer for the castor bean, but a sandy loam is preferable. The soil should be deep, 'ihis crop does not thrive in heavy, net soils. The ground should be well ploughed and harrowed three or four times. Tne seeds should be planted five or six Itet art each way. Between the sixth and seventh rows the distance should be eight f.-ret, to admit a light cart or slide in liarvt sting the crop. Hot water, a little below the boiling temperature, should be oured over the beans twenty-four hours before planting, and they should remain soaking in the water twenty-four hours. They generale much ouicker bv usunr hot water. Kiiiht or t.'n seed should be dropped in each hill and covered to the depth ot about two inches. The beans should be planted as soon as all danger of frost is past, or about the time cotton is planted. Cultivate shallow, keep the weeds down and the ground well pul verized. One stalk in a hill is suthcicnt, but do not thin out until cutworm season is past. When the pods begin to turn brown it is time to harvest as tor oil beans. They should be spread out in the hot sun, on a hard clean stinacew allowing twelve or mteen feet for the beans to fly when the pods top. A temporary plank tence arcunu the drying yard is best.

Grind to a tine powder and give a teaspoonful in moist meal to a dozen fowls once a day. Dr. Lyoa Flayfair, who has made several visits to this country, states, in an article in an English magazine, that American mechanics are more honest and efficient than foreign, and that it is impossible not to foresee that the United Stales is about to become the great manufacturing country of the world. California grapes were sold at the "vineyards last year, for shipping to the Eastern markets, for two cents jer pound, and it cost a cent and a half more for boxes and k-ackimr. The railroads charged $50'J a carload of ten fons to take them to Chicago. The growers think that the railroads made the most money out ot the cron. Many dairymen practice milking their cows steadily without Allowing the animals to go dry. Ihey feed heavily on'corumeal ami oil cake until the milk falls, wheu the cow is replaced by a fresh one. A dairyman who keeps 1Ö0 cows says such a practice is more profitable than to lose the tune between their going dry and coming in. Be careful about permitting cattle to drink from ditches or frompo.ilsin which theyare accustomed to stand, or in which their droppings are deposited. Such imEure water is not only liable to injure the e&lthof the stock, but is also a fruitful cause of malarial and typhoid fever among those who use milk product from cows thus watered. .

With years of experience there are out few farmers who can visit the agricultural shows, judge and select the prize stok.

OUITEAIT'S NECKTIE.

Woven of the Best lirmp ly Bob Hrtin phrejs, of St. Louis, And the lllark Cap for Ult F'ace 2fade by a St. Loul Tailor. ISU Lou Is Republican. 1 To-morrow evening the rope and cap will be on exhibition at Iiueger's Hotel." were the words which fell ujon the ears of a liepublican reporter at the Four Courts yester day. Turning, he saw the well-known features of Mas Gumpert, the tailor, and in close conversation with liim was an equally well-known lepnty Clerk of the Criminal fVurt. He informed his friend that the Govern ment had accepted a rope and cap tandered by certain gentkinen of the city of St. Loui. for the purpose of hanging the archend Gui.ea'. For nearly a month they had been in correspondence with Marshall lleury, uf the-District of Columbia, in re gard to the proposed donation. The cap, which is of the finest material, was made pecially for Guiteau by Gumbert. The rote, whicu is three-quarters ot an inch in diameter and ofMhc best workmanship, was made by Dob Humphreys, having for its special object tiie encircling of Guiteau'a neck. Bob has made all the rones that have Ushered out of existence all St. the past decade, all executions, aud Louis' murderers in He has been present at takes special pride in knowing that when a rope loaves his hands and U placed about the neck of a criminal it is not the fault rf the rope if be has not a sure and ouick transition to that country from whose bourne, etc. After the first few letters had passed between Washington and this city it was decided by the coterie to elect Isen rin ney, Clerk Clsbbe's popular deputy, to the iKJsition of Corresponding Secietary. Ben indited one of his elaborate epistles to Mar shal Henry, iu which he suited that the geniltmeii he represented were MAKIXo HEKCCLEAN ENDEAVORS to manufacture an article that would reflect credit upon both the city and country, and that having had ample experience in such matters see record of the Criminal Court they were prepared to furnish an article sec ond to none iu the country. The Marshal replied that he was very happy to heur from the St. Louis gentleman, and that he would look iuto the subject, and if jto-wible their request would be granted. More letters passed to and fro, and during the last week a critical observer would have noticed that Coroner Frank, Jake ltueger, Bob Humph reys, Max ti umpcrt and several otheis got their heads very close together a scire oi times a day, and when they parted a smile of satisfaction illuminated eacn ciunteiiar.ee and King Gambrinus was called upon to contribute to the general good humor. Word had finally come setting beyond doubt that the city of St. Louis would have the honor of contributing the rope that would hanj Guiteau and the cap that would shut out lorev?. irom his gaz9 the beauties of nature and the works of man. When it was finally decided that the G ivernnient would accept, the boys ail took an able bodied drink, and the rope and cap wer; brought down o lluoger'3 saloon, and that gentleman was apto:uted a SLceial commit ue to represent the city and forward the chfrihoi articles to Washinpton. Consid erable satisfaction was expressed that the citv tot ahead of the village by the lakeside and that the rope woven here would legally execute a former cmzvn of the said village Pieces of it were kept as souvenirs, and ii the demand for these interesting relics were supplied, there graduilly dawned ujton the committee ot ot e, that there would be little left of it to send to Washington. The re quctti were sat down upon early in the day and tho jgh theie was nearly fifteen feet of it when Bob finished it, it had gradually diminished to tin. Max Gumpen said last night; -We Intend to give all the credit to Mr. ltueger. Hum phrey-j was paid for the rope and 1 was paid lor the cap. He intends that thev should go to Washington with the hopes of the whole community that they will accomplish their object. They will be on exhibition at the Four Courts of in Mr. Rueger's saloon to-ruorrow afternoon, and in the evening they will be shipped by express lo the Cap: tal of the United States. We intend that Ben Finney shall indite one last letter, in which everybody wili be thanked and a gen eral good foiling expressed. I have received a special ihVitatio.1 from Marshal Henry to he present at the execution, a have all tbe others, and if things go well I'll be ou dock on the .loth of J une. SKVKItH WIJiTEfJS. ßettrr to Cexi About Than to Kaperiesce Chambers' Journal In the course ot the winter of 1 S 1 4, not only was the list of persons w ho perished in the snow a painfully long one, but many animals were lost, particularly sheep .There were, however, some remarkable instances of the latter being rescued, after a protrac ted entombment. One belonging to a pintle man in the south of Scotland was rescued afier having been buried for six week. It was not much the worse for its imprison mer.t; lor, after a little stumbling, it wr.s able to walk home before the shepherd, and by and by was as strong as the rest of the Hock. Ou the 22A of February a sheep be longing to a farmer in Berwickshire w as duj out, nfter having been for fourteen days eu tombed In the snow. Neither are instances wanting of the almost miraculous preservation of huruan beings when buried in a drift-wreath. Fewmore remarkable than the following will be found, which occurred in the village of 1mpington. about three miles from Cambridge. On Ute I'd of February, 17!., Mrs. F.iizaheth Woodcock, a respectable resident of the village, on returning home from the market, was overtaken by Bnow-irift. Lying down beside a hedge, she was completely enveloped. and remained there until the 10th of the month a period of eight du sand nights. During the interval, one of the villagers is said to have dreamed, on three different occasions, that a hare was to be fourd at a particular spot at the roadside near the village. Immediately after the last occasion, ho resolved to go and see; and on doing so, he discovered a bamlkerchief in a hole in the snow; and on farther search, to bis amazement, Mrs. Woodcock. She was conveyed, in the full possession of her faculties, to her family and 'friend3, who had given ber up for lost. She said phe bad a distinct recollection of hearing the village bells chiming for the Church service on the day tfter that in which she was enwrapped in what she believed was to be her winding-sheet; and equally good was her hearing on the morning of the day she was rescued, when, on the bells again chiming, she recognized them. About thirty or forty years ago, a monument commemorative of the event, with an inscription stating the particulars, was erected on the spot; and persons are said to be still living in the village who remember having seen Mrs. Woodcock. The great storm of 1705 lasted for fifty-one days; and on a simultaneous appeal being made to the "Oldest inhabitant" in all parts of the country, that venerable personage positively failed tojeoniure up from memory a parallel winter, unless, indeed, it were that of 1710. On the Thames there was a general suspension of commerce, and it was said there were no fewer than threehnndred vessels fast in the ice. During the months of January and February, a great many persons perished in the snow or from the cold not a few in circumstances exceedingly painful. But there was also a very consider-

able catalogue of ' trallant rescues.

We eelect the following two examples of deliverance effected by the agency of the dumb animals, that have always been among the best friends of man. One day toward the end of January a Norfolk farmer, w-hile returning home from the town of Norwich, became so benumbed by the cold that he was compelled to lie down in the snow. He would undoubtedly have per ished but for his itog, whicb, with a pathetic sagacity, stretched its body across tho mas ter s brat, and so protected his lungs from cold. In thisiwsition iNav for several hours. until at length, by continued barking and holinf, it attracr-d attention and relict An almost equal power of discernment was displayed in the following instance: About the same period, while a farmer near lluntlycote was. with the assistance of las shepherd, relieving somo sheep from the snow-drift at the side of a bank, a large quantity of snow ehct d awn in the form of an avalanche from the higher ground, and enveloped the two men. There they must lave remained, and perhaps perished, but for the sagacity of their two faithful collies. The dogs at once scampered home, and bv their excited demeanor and continuous howling, aroused tha suspicions of the women, whom they by and by induced to follow them to the spot where their masters were buried. Arrived there, the animals commenced to scrape the snow; and the situation having thus been made plain, the men were dug out, after a confinement of six hour?, of whicb, however, they were not much the worse. IT WAS HIS WIFK. An "O wer True Tale" How k Man Fell in Love the Second Time. A noted music teacher in New York City relates the following incident from real life, which contains a moral worth re wgmtion by wives: A year -ago last fall a card was brought into my music-room bearing the name ot a well-known and fashionable married lady When she was ushered in I was surprised to see so young a looking woman, though. to be sure, she is not yet fortv, and a fair complexion and clear blue eyes make her look younger. She seemed a little embarrassed, but asked me to try her voice. I did so, and found it un cultivated, but was singularly fresh and sweet; in quality a light soprano. I told her so. amt her face flushed eagerly as she a-ked: "Professor, could you teach me to sing? ' "Yes." I replied, "if you choose to applv yourself earnestly. "I will, and if you can manage it so that I need not be seen, and that no one knows of it, 1 will lake a lesson every day. e made th" best arrangements we could, and the lady never failed to appear promptly at the the hour. Mie was so anxious and so perselng that she made tbe most extraordin arv progress and. when spring came, her Voice lud so strengthened and developed as to be almost beyond recognition. THS HAPPIEST WOMAN .LITE. Ihtring the mi mm or I heard nothing of her Le.vOnd mention in the society papers i; Ler b'ing at Saratoga, but about a mouth ago she ctlied upon me, and, taking both my hands in hers, shook them earnestly, ft sr.e :a:d: "1 rciessor, 1 have come to mans you for making me tne happiest woman alive." She then told me that her husband, to whom she was deeply attached, was pes pionateiy fond of voca.1 music, and had at ways regretted tnat she could not s:i2S to mim. She hid never cultivated her voice before marriage, and afterward the coming of chil dren and the claims of Society had prevent ed her attempting it; but the unlucky day name wheu Mr. iL maue the acquaintanc nf h charming widow witn a charming voice, who was always ready and willing to sin sweet songs to him, ami he gradually fel into the way of spending many of h:s even nigs with her. At heart devoted to Ids wife, lie was u:i conscious of his gradual ncglietof her, and would have been astonished liad she resent ed his enjoyment of there musical tete-u tetrs. About the widow I am not prepare; t? speak. Mrs. II. like a nice woman, dn not recent it. but undermir.eil the enemy as you will tee. Her music lessons she kept a profound secret fnra her family. In tiie summer ihey went, as usu.il, to Saratoga and look possession of one f the pretty cot tapes at the I nited States lintel. The morning after their arrival the lo. newspapers contained a notice that the lead ing soprano of the hpiscopal Church was ii with a throat affection, and the congregation was asked to make due allowance for tt disabled choir. The next morning (SundayMr, IL. with two of the children, wend Ids wav to the Church of his belief, Mrs. K ha vim; excused herself on the plea of ahead ache. SISTGINO IS CHCF.CII. Alter the opening serv ice, the minister an nouncedthat "a lad v from New lor had kindly volunteered to sing in place of the sick soprano, and in consequencethe musical servica would be the sama as usual." A fevr moments later a clear, sweet voice ram: through tbe church and touched the bcirts of the jteople, jterhaps even more through the exquisite expression anuleeiing which the music was rendered than the qualities of the voice itself. Mr. 11. was fascinated, de liguted, and inwardly made comparisons between it and the witching widow, not Uatteringto the latter. After the services were over he cac.trly sought the minister to ascertain the name of the charming soprano, whose face lie had not teen able to see from his seat. "Come with me and I wili introduce vou, said the minister, who xr.ew air. n by reputation. They entered the choir together. aue the good man began "Miss Frown, . permit me to introduce when he was interrupted by Mr. JL ejaculating, "Oreat heavens, it is my wife: And, place and company notwith standing, he cave a hearty embrace in thi delight and surprise.

' "The Kir.g'n person," said the Chancellor, "was always invb lable. I am responsible for all the ccts of my King and mtstcr. The Constitution doc-s not mention tbe -Minister at all.

Then turning round and facing the Left, he exclaimed: "If you believe that Miniters intend to cover themselves against Parliamentary f pcechesby the King's Person, you err." Half ironically, he added: "You then overrate yourselves. If you reproach me, who have served my King for twen'y years, of cowardice, it must oring a blush to your face." A fearful uproar followed. The whole scene was brought on by the preceding speech of the Progressist Deputy, Professor Haenel, who declared the rescript was intended for no purpose buf to cover the responsibility of the Ministers by the King's person. It was this expressson that roused Prince Lismartk and led to the scene above described. After the Chancellor had finally declared. "I must serve the King as a servant, not as
