ANIMALS sensible TO EIDI- CULE. Mr. SM&ey Burton, in one of his amusing papers on animals, in the Ani mal World for February, says that dogs and horses are, as far as he knows, the only animals tentative to ridicule, while eats and birds, are wholly unaware that they are being langhed at. He tells of a pony of his own which gets very cross when dis paraging remarks are made upon him,and “becomes fnri pus< and! stamps about in bis stall, put ting back his ears, and attempting to bite,” if he is openly langhed at, while prasing greatly pleases him. The irmli is that it is only those creatures which cun feel sympathy with men which cau appreciate ridicule, The horse sympathizes evidently with many of His rider’s feelings anil amusements, while the dog can enter into no ffiiall proportion of his feelings. But birds uud cats, though often exceedingly af fectionate, and full of attachment to in dividuals, hardly ever attempt to enter into human feeliDgs—as Cowper s dog Bean, for instance, enterred into the poeVs desire to possess himself of the water lily. '1 he hatred of ridienlealwnys •iC Ompanics a capacity for sympathy.. Certainly dogs, and probably horses, know the differences between being langlied at in derision, as we laugh at a fool in admiration,as we laugh at a good comic actor, enjoy the latter as much as they -esent the former. It is questionable, however, whether some parrots do not understand and enjoy the practice oE making fun of their hu man acquaintance—do not appreciate the art of duping, anil take-pleasure, iu- I.--The Spectator. - Best Cohn Bread.--Many of our people have au aversion to corn bread. Meal is cheaper than flour, and when coarsely ground and properly prepared, it makes a healthier bread than flour and is nearly if not quite as tasteful.— First boil the meal—not merely scald it- bnt boil it nntil it is done, enough to rat. Lay it aside nntil it is wanted for bread; then add an egg or two uccord- ing to quantity, and a little salt, and bake it. This is egg.bread. But first boiling it- and laying it aside for. an hour two, gives it a far more palatable taste than if th i meal and eggs are first mixed without boiling. Try it and -corn muffins too, in. the same way, and you will have a bread that is not ex ceeded by that made of flour. Brin FEENCH FABMING. STANDARD WEIGHTS. An Act to fix_ by law the standard weight of a bushel of the articles and On Sunday the farmer’s mother comes into the yard and wants me to sit down with Madame L; and herself , , ■ , ..... - ■ commodities hereinafter mentioned, for a litt e gossip. She wants me to, ’ wear a cap. She says, that I am thin, and I reprove her for not being complimentary. Slie offers me a pinch of snufl, and again asks me if America is a part of France. She does not work in the garden, like our “Pennsylvania Dutch” women, but here are working hands. One day her son is very busy catting a large field of rye, and Las eleven extra men. 1 . . . . . T see none of oar great-reaping mna sow ing and mowing machines here. Mad ame the farmer has a great deal to do this day. Her domestic is' in the field in the morning guarding the oxen, cows, and calves that are grazing. While she is thns acting as sheperdese she sews, knits and spins for the family, To see her going out with a distaff of hemp was quite novel to me. At eleven o’clock she comes In to help madame the grauger with the dinner. Madame will give the: men : vegetable and rice soap. After the soup there witl be omelets—I am told that it will take three or four for so many men—and there will be bread and cheese, salad, wine. The cheese is made from milk after the cream is taken off, or from the goats’ milk pure. The salad is dressed with vinegar, walnut oil, salt, pepper, and a little garlic. Madam L. tells me that they are no.t ill fed. At noon the domestic milks the cows and the goats, for she does it iliree times a day. "At three she will go to the fields again with the animals This care must be used, there are no fences. At four o,clock the men will have a lunch in the field; some help The mother to take it out, They will Lava bread cheese and sal ad. “And wine?” I ask. That is a matter of course. They drink wine at the four meals; but if they are thirsty between tkeytake pi quette. They Jo not-drink water; they don’t like it,” says Madame L. Haivest hands get meat once .a day— at breakfast there is a bit of bacon the soup, except on Friday—say some thing more than a pound for so many men. Then there are bread and cheese again. (Madame L’s cheeses resemble “Dutch cheeses,” or little pals, made in Pennsylvania from smearcasej or cot- tagecheese.) After harvest is fiinislud they will have the revel (rivolle). This is a snpper where madame the. farmer will have a ham or shoulder boiled— for they call shoulders hams. Then they nave some other meat, if there are so many, m cd, perhaps there will be a couple of rabbits—rabbits stewed with wine; and there will be, moreover bread and salad and wine and at the rivolle. The farm is planted in the followin manner: in vines, about ten acres; in meadow there are twenty; in rye, twen ty; in wheat, five; in Oats, two and a half. Maize or Indian corn is also sown, but only to be fed green to the cattle. It is cut at the height of two and a half feet, when quite tender, and is given to the animate in their scabies. Grass seeds are never sown in this dis trict ; but when a field has been cultiva ted end the harvest gathered, whether wheat or oats, or auything else, then they do not fatigue the ground, even Sec. -1. Be it enacted by the Gene ral Assembly of the State of Georgia; 1 that the legal weight of the follow ing articles and commodities per bushel shall be as follows: Wheat.. v .60 lbs. Shelled corn 56 the cheaper of the two, there is much ™ the plain, the second year, but allow the natural grasses to grow, and there animals graze, under the care of ashep- economv in it. Smothering Chops —In the West, whue laransas a aule plant more Hires than tl ey can carefully .cultivate, weeds and grasses will occasionally take possession of the soil to a very unprof itable extent. When this is the case, a smothering crop is the natural and best resort-. Buckwheat answers admirably for this purpose. When land devoted to cereals has become infested with pig eon grasp and June grass, pig weed, etc., sow Buckwheat thickly after tli9 middle of June, let it grow until Sep- September, and then plow it under. The land will then be in prime condi tion for a fall crop, or for any hoed crop in the following spring. Now is the time to recall the condition of dif ferent fields as they appeared last year, and to determine the treatment each should receive the coming season. The Treaty with Japan.—It is said that there is still much chagrin in Yo kohama over the introduction of this clause in the Japan and United States treaty by which the interests of the United States are subornated to the will of the European powers. Terashima, Minister of Foreign Affairs, announces that the whole treaty was authorized lay him. It is suspected, however, that the trea*y was first framed without the objectionable cianse, and that Terashi ma, acting under secret British influ ence, privately urged its addition upon the State Department at Washington wicliout consulting all the members of the Japanese Cabinet. Joubert, the communard, who re. fanned from exile, and loudly pro claimed that he had amnestied himself, and proceeded to assail the govern ment, lias been fried by the communal court martial and sentenced to five years imprisonment. He is probably the last victim of the tribunal established in 1871, as its prosecutions are to be stopped, and it is assumed that he is to be pardoned as a matter of course. Fdenitobe Polish.—Alcohol, 21 oun ces; gum sheilac, 2 ounces; iinseid oil, 14 ounces; gum 'benzoin, 2 ounces; cxalic acid, 1 ounce; white rosin, 2 oun ces. Dissolve the gnms in alcohol, let it remain 24 hours and then add the oil. This polish has been in use for fifty years in a damp climate and has been found to keep furniture in perfect con dition. >-©-< Jefeehsos’s old home was sold at auction the other day for 810,000. The n'ernmect wasn’t the purchaser, how- . and tue bones of the author of Declaration of Independence are i the hands of a private iudiyid ual. herd or shepherdess, and generally of. a shepherd's dog. Pierre values their sheperd clog at one hundred francs; but his mother tells me that he is worth about half that sum, that Her son puts that value on him because he loves him; he was worth it once, but be is getting old. The shepherd dog is only taxed one franc a year, the others five. . _ - _ I have spoken of there being twenty acres in a meadow on the Lesomtagnes farm, and Piefre tells me that meadows in France are never tilled. They endeavor to water them; if there is no stream, they try to find a spring, where they will make a deep hole or pond, and theDee conduct the waters by means of little ditches or ca nals. You can see meadows on the sides of the hills crossed, lengthwise by these ditches. These meadows are rarely manured, the manure being wan ted for the vines , which pay better. One-third of the manure Is put upon the wheat, and two thirds on vines. Generally by the beginihg of June the water ceases to flow through the mead ow ditches. There are usually nvo cut tings ;of grass taken-frond the meadows, one in June , and .July, the other in Au gust and again in September and Octo ber; bnt if not well enough grown it can be pastured. I have said that these meadows are never tided. Pieri-e thinks that theirs has not been ploughed for three hundred years; and conject ures that some in France-, have hot been broken up for a thousand.—Phe be Earle Gibbons; in Harper's Magazine For February. A little girl was asked by. her moth er, on her return from chnreh yester day, how she liked the preacher.— “Didn’t like him at all,” was the reply. “Why,” asked her mother. “Cause he preached till he got me sleepy, and then he hollered so load he woald not let mo go to sleep.” SirTIittLOGT. • Sa£vrs. _The Satyrs were part of the retinue of Kiug Bacchus.
