Hair Vigor,
For restoring Gray Hair to
its nalural Vitality and Color.
A dressing
which is at once
agreeable,
healthy, and ef
fectual for pre-
serving tho
hair. Faded or
gray hair is soon
restored to its
original color,
with the gloss and freshness of youth.
Thin hair is thickened, falling hair
ehecked, and baldness often, though
not always, cured by its use. Noth
ing can restore the hair where the
follicles are destroyed, or the glands
atrophied and decayed. But such as
remain can bo saved for usefulness
by this application. Instead of foul
ing the hair with a pasty sediment, it
will keep it clean and vigorous. Its
•ccasional use will prevent the hair
from turning gray or falling off, and
•onaequently prevent baldness. Free
from those deleterious substances
which make some preparations dan
gerous, and injurious to the hal- the
Vigor can only benefit but not harm
it. If wanted merely for a
HAIR DRESSING,
nothing else can be found so desir-
•ble. Containing neither oil nor
dye, it does not soil white cambrio,
and yet lasts long on tho hair, giving
it a rich, glossy lustre and a grateful
perfume.

riOH FED SEPARATELY.
I’ij-H should bu led iu pens to tlietfiRclvcfl to
insure rt’oeiviiiR their proper slmuq nud to pre
vent them from b iuR billon nud bruised by Iho
large hogs. This can bo easily managed by
having a pen al (ho (ceding place with a gate
just large enough to admit thoRotbut are desired
to euter. They hoou learn to tako advantage of
tho privilege thus afforded them, especially il,
as should bo the ease, they ale fed enough to
keep them eating alter the large hogs have fin
ished their meal.
Another advantage of this arrangement is,
that if at any time th£y need handling, all that
is necessary to Hccure them is to oloso the gato
while they are icodiug. Pigs should uot he al
lowed to sleep iu sufficient numbers iu ono bed
to pile upou caob other; uor should they sleep
with largo hogs, li st tho weak ones should bo
overlaid aud injured.
Another disadvantage arising from piling to
gether iu cold weather arises from tho laot that
they become very warm, and aro liable to con
tract colds, and even pneumonia, from tho sud
den change of teuiperaturo on leaviug their bods
iu tho morning.
It should constantly bo borne in mind that
the hog is a nativo of warm climates, and hence
suff rs more from cold thau other domestic ani
mals. During Ihu ^winter mouths their beds
should be well protected from cold rains and
winds, but opcu to tho south to admit the sun.
Their beds should be frequently ronewod, aud
kept fno /rom dust Notbiug is more injurious
to bogs, aud especially to pigs, tbau sleeping
under bouses where dust is iubalod. Caro
should bo taken to exclude thorn from such
places. Iu summer it is better to exoludo them
entirely from sheltered beds, and require them
to sleep in the open air, aud to change their
sleeping places frequently, unless they are occa
sionally cleaned out and lrcsh straw supplied.
GENERAL MANAGEMENT THROUGH THE YEAR.
The fact that sixty-throe per cunt of tho corre
spondents of this department report neglect,
and thirty-seven per cent thieves, as tho princi
pal obstacle to raising bogs in Georgia, indi
cates the directions in which wo nro to seek the
remedies for these difficulties. The removal of
the first by giviug proper attention will, to a
very largo extent, remove tbo second, since
proper attention iuvolvos such care as will not
ou \ afford tbo best faci.ities for tbo growth aud
health of the hog, but guard him, as far as pos
sible, against all casualties, whether they arise
from theft or disease.
Where the necessary attention is given, either
by a responsible agent or tho proprietor, there
is generally very littlo thelt, aud disease iB di
minished just iu proportion as tho food supply
and bedding of the bog is adapted to bis nature.
As before remarked, our peculiar advantages of
6oil and climate enable the Georgia farmer to
supply the natural food of tho hog both in vari
ety and abundance.
As nearly ull tho hogs raisod in Georgia are
intended for bacon, tho subject will bo discussed
with this constantly in view. Sows which do
not biiug two littcis of pigs a year, in our cli
mate, should be rejected as breeders and con
verted into bacon. If a regular system is adopt-
ed (and but Utile will bo accomplished without
it), the best.is to have one litter como in March,
and the other in September. Tho September
pigs will have the run of tho pea fields, and po
tato, clmfn, aud ground-pea patches, aud thus
get a good start off at very litlle expense,aud go
into winter in fine, thrifty condition. The
ground-peas and ohufas will afford seme food
uulil late in tho wiuter. This© with u littlo
corn, fed daily, nud a run upou green oats aud
rye, to which only tho shoats should bo admitted,
as (he sows would bo apt to injure the stand by
rooting, will keep them in a thrifty aud healthy
condition. Iu addition to these, turnips or
sweet potatoes and a lew peas, or a littlo corn or
oatmeal boiled and led to them once a day, will
carry them through tho winter with very little
cost, nud so vary their diet as to insure health.
A littlo salt aud copperas should be occasionally
mixed with tho slops, aud, less often, a small
dose of flowers ol sulphur. As spring advances
the principal reliance must be the rye pasture,
aud more corn will bo needed. In uo eveut
should shoals be allowed to become poor, but
should be kept constantly iu a healt y, growing
condition.
Tbo spring litters should bo pushed forward
as rapidly as possible, to prepare them for the
slaughter peu tho following wiuter. This is
more profitable thau to half food them, and keep
them for tho second year. By planting crops
for their consumption during the summer, and
pleuty of peas, potatoes, ohufas, &e., for fall,
there is no difficulty in making good porkers of
the spring pigs by the following December—
just such as is best suited for family use. Hogs
intended for the butcher peu should bo fat be
fore cold weather, as less luod is required to
fatten iu moderately warm weather, than when
a largo part of it is required to keep up tho
mat animal heat, to compensate for the loss oc
casioned by low temperature.
This was thoroughly tested by a practical
farmer iu 1870. A young bog was put up, and
fed libernlly tbreo times a day, giving tho same
quantity each day. Every Saturday morning ho
was weighed. During a pleasant week ho
gained seven pounds, tho next week the weather
was freezing and windy, aud, though consuming
tho same quantity of lood daily, he did uot gain
an ounce during the week, the whole food hav
ing been required to keep up the animal heat.
This experiment illustrates the necessity ol
iucreasiug the quantity of food given to animals
iu cold weather.
A certain quantity of food is required to keep
up tho animal boat, and supply the natural
waste of tho system. If less is supplied, a por
tion of the flesh and fat is ro-converted iuto
blood to supply the deficiency; hence, neglootod
animals grow thin in the winter, and fat in
Bpriug, when tho food supply exceeds the de
mand for tho above requirements.
Mr. W. P. Orme, of Atlauta Gn., a practical
and successful farmer, plants alternate plats of
peas, potatoes, and sorghum in the same field,
and turns his hogs upon thorn in September.
This is an admirable plan, but the list might,
with propriety, be increased by the addition of
corn, ground-peas, and ohufas, and planted in
the following ratio, viz: Corn, with speckled
peas between tbo rows, four acres; sweet pota
toes, two acres; ohufas, two acres; ground peas,
ono acre; and sorghum, one acre, making ten
acres in all, which, with average seasons, will
fatten from seventy-five to one hundred hogs,
turned in about the middle of Septomber, aud
have them fat before cold weather commences;
so that a week on corn will prepare them for the
knife. Ten acres in th se crops will fotten more
hogs, and leave them in better health, than fifty
acres of corn, and save the labor of gathering
the crop.
There are several great advantages in this sys
tem: the hogs have a varied diet of natural
food, which will not only fatten, but secure
health; they will bo fattened before cold weather;
they gather their own food without ranch trnvel-
iug; Ihey are in n small onolosure, where they
are not exposed to thieves; and, after the fatten,
ing hogs have gathered (he bulk of the crop,the
sows and pigs will subsist some time on tbo
gleanings.
If bogs are led, they should have their meals
at regular hours, and no more than they will
cousume at one meal. Frequent small meals
are better tbau excessive ones at long intervals.
Hogs on the farm should uot be allowed to
couuumo carcasses, or any refuso animal food.
There is uot only danger of oommunioaling dis
ease, but of inducing tho habit of destroying
fowls, and evou thoir own young.
The praotico of ‘ 'gorging’' hogs ou corn, whou
first put into tho fattening pen, with a view to
causing less consumption of food altorwards, is
most pernicious. It is true that such a course
roduoos tho quantity of fond oousuiued for some
days, but tho saving of food iH at tho expense of
the houlth of the hog. Overloading tho stom
ach, it becomes sour, and consoquautly, destroys
tho nppetito. 80 far from ^gorging,” when first
put up to fatten, they should bo fed moderately
aud the quantity gradually increased ns they be
come accustomed to concentrated food, aud
roots, hay, ashes, charcoal, uml salt, given to
relievo the ill effects of tho ooncoutrnted food
usually fed to thorn. Greasy slops aro peculiar
ly beneficial to hogs, and should bo given to
them whenever accessible. If tbo incidental
supply is iiuiuffioient, a few orackliugs, boiled
with meal and vegetables, will make uu excollout
slop, aud cost but little. Dr. Ilupe, of Fulton
county, has tested this, with very satisfactory
effects. Whou first turned iuto tho field, plant
ed as above suggested, they should bo allowed
to remain only an hour at a time, for tho first
few days, nud tho time gradually lougthenod,
until they becouio accustomed to such alum-
dance, when they may bo permitted to leed ut
will.
Hogs may liavo rings put into their noses, to
prevent rooting while running on clover or ryo
pastures, but they should bo used only when on
such pastures. Tho Georgia farmer will geuor
ally havo littlo noed of rings.
If the system of having two litters a yoar,
ono in March, and tho other in Soptombor, is
adopted, it will bo necessary to wiuter only half
tho stock, nud none, except the brood sows, need
bo kept through more than one wiuter. The
September litter should bo ready lor the knife
tbo first cold Rpcll, aud the May litter reserved
lor a second killing. Tkero is economy iu mak
ing two killings, in order to utilize tho scraps
without wu8te.

A HISTORIC MYSTERY.
Among tho moro prominent of the National's
lato arrivals are Senator Ben Hill and wile, of
Georgia. They oocupy the suite of rooms known
ns tho Presidential parlors. If the walls had
tongues they might discourse of people promi
nent in tho past, and, pore bunco, tell tales of
privato life never suspected. But the tall man
tel looks blank under its modern ornament, tbe
brass mountings of tho louder reflect new faceB,
tbo heavy curtains shut in tho secrets never
voiced, and in tho room sits a little, dark-eyed
prim woman and a blue-oycd man, “from away
down south in Georgia”—n man mild as May,
velvety, broad-faced, and unassuming ns a Hold
daudeliou. The-o rooms where Senator Hill
now lives, on that fatal tourth ol March, which
witnessed Buchanan’s inauguration, were occu
pied by the new President. Twelve hundred
guests were ciowded in tbe house. In the even
ing nearly all wore seized by similar symptoms
of poisouiug, aud thirty or moro died. The
deud bodies lay in rows in the parlors, the sick
aud dying were moaning in the halls; a gloom
hung over tho city, and extended to distuut
homes, from whence had como guests to witness
the inauguration. Thu house had just previous
to this been entirely refurnished. It was the
crand hotel of the capital, nud built iu a style
ot magnificence rare iu those times. Thu hotel
poisouiug is remembered with hor or by old
people, but many of tbe younger ones have
never hea.d ol it. Tbo affair was investigated
and tho bouse examined. No positive clue bus
beeu found. Some said defective drainage,
some poisoned rats in tbo wells, home that the
sugar was poisouod to ruin tbo business of tbo
hotel. It is generally, I think, believed now
that the poison was mineral poison, and was in
the sugar—lor tho reasou that persons not stop
ping at the house, who took iuuuy drinks at Le
bar, were ulso seized by cramps. Doubtless iht
new President’s death was meditated, but Mr.
Buchanan never touched sugar, uor ate it iu
anything, so that he almost alone escaped the
peril. Some of those beside bis excellency, who
escaped, havo boon interrogated, and all those
whose address could bo touud alter the lapse oj
years, replied that they did uot partake of sugar
iveu in coffee. The house wus closed, the
iplcndid furniture was sold at auction. For
years the hotel was uninhabited. People looked
at tho burred windows something as visitors now
pause bolero Ford's theater, where President
Lincoln was assassinated. Strangers stood iu
front of it uud related to each oilier sad iuoi-
denlH of the inexplicable death which hud over
taken thirty persons iu a night. Twenty years
go a gentleman from New Hampshire, visiliug
,1 Washington asked to go through iho house,
’eople had beeu afraid to enter tbo walls utter
tbe panic. The gcnllemnu upou examination,
immediately leased tho building, threw open the
wiudows, had the house cleaned, one hundred
aud fifty loads of dirt taken from the cellar, put
$100,000 worth of furniture iu the hotel, uud
called crazy by bis friends. Iu December
every corner was filled by guestB, and tbo
quaint, low rooms, where had danced the belles
of a quarter of a century boforo, wore again
filled with life aud beauty.

HOW TO COXilUEil.
‘I will master it,’ said the axe, aud his blows
fell heavily ou the irou; but every blow made
his edge moro bluut, till ho ooasod to strike.
‘Leave it to me,’ said the saw, aud with his
releutless teeth he worked backward aud for
ward on its surface, till they woie all worn down
or brokeu; then be fell aside.
‘Ha, ha! said the hammer, *1 kuew you
wouldn’t succeed, I’ll show you the way,’ but
after pounding away awhile be gave up, aud
tho irou remaiuod as before.
'Shall I try? asked tho soft small flime. But
thoy all despised tho flauio: but he curled gou-
tly around the iron, aud embraced it, aud uever
left it till it molted under tbe irresistible influ
ence. There are hearts hard ouough to resist
tho force of wrath, the malice of persecution,
and the fury of pride, so as to make their acts
recoil ou their adversaries; but there is a power
strouger thau any ol those, aud hard iudeed is
the heart that cau resist love.
Mn.Hewitt’s Joke.—Privato Secretary Rodg
ers was before the House Committee on Appro
priations recently with a deficiency bill for the
White House. The items included $2,000 for
extra clerk hire, $900 for horses, $25 for repair
ing harness, and $100 for horse shoes. Tbe
committee advised Mr. Ridgers that the bill
would have to he first presented iu tbo House
aud referred to tbe oommitteo, before they could
take it up. When the committee adjourned a
nowspaper correspondent met Mr. Hewitt, when
tho following dialogue ensued:
Correspondent—What was Rodgers doing
bofore your oommittee ?
Mr. Hewitt—He came about a deficiency bill.
Correspondent—Where is the defioiouoy?
Mr. Hewitt—In the White House.
Correspondent—Has it existed long?
Mr. Hewitt—Only siuce the 4th of March last.
Correspondent—Is it large ?
Mr. Hewitt—Well, no; I should say about tho
size of Samuel J. Tilden.
“Never, uo, never marry for money,” gravely
remarked the pastor to tho youth. “Pa,” called
out a youngster just then from behind the study
door, “what do you marry for, if ’tain’t for
money—$2 any way, and may be more, if tbe
feller's rich ?”
A little girl was teaching her brother the
Lord’s Prayer, the other night; and when she
had said “Give us this day our daily bread,” be
suddenly cried out. “Pray for eirup, too erister.”
