It is with regret that all will read what I have now unfortunately to add, that exactly a month afterward, the poor creature died there of her wounds. She has left eight children, six of whom are very young, and a dis tracted husband to mourn her loss, but she found comfort in her last sufferings and under the pain of such a parting from the recollection that she had given her life for another.

The opium pipe is made of a piece of mahoganv or ebony wood. wJ lie stem isjibout three-quarters of ai inch in diameter, and about fwo feet in length.- A hole about half an inch “diameter, runs the whole length of the stem. About six inches from the eud of tfie stem is the bowl of the pipe. It is made of a peculiar kind of sand and clay in China, and is very hard and fire-proof. The bowl is about two inches iu diameter. The top of the hole is entirely closed, except a small hole fn the center, about the size of a 11rgc darning needle. Iff the bottom is a hole about an inch id diameter into which is inserted a brass coupling, cou- necting the stem of the pipe. Tim opium is kept in a small box uiade of horn. When a person desires to smoke opium he reclines upon the table, upon one side. With a-piece of steel about th e length and size of a large knitting- needle, and sharp-pointed, a little of he opium is taken from the box. It is held over the blaze'of the lamp until it is thoroughly eooketjl. The piece, of steel is kept in .motion,tfil the time and the opium, when copkeU; 4 formed into the shape of a small pistol car tridge. The point of the steel needle is then iuserted into the small hole in the center of the bowl of the pipe and gently drawn through the cartridge of opium. The smoker then turns the bowl of the pipe to the flame of the lamp, reposes upon a wooden pillow and smokes. He Fently draws his breath in long and rapid respirations. He must be careful, however, to slight ly remove his lips from the stem of the pipe wheu taking breath. If he should breathe slightly into the stem it stops tbe flow of the smoke of the opium. When the flow is stopped the sharp- pointed steel is used to open the small hole in the bowl of the pipe. It-takes about three minutes to prepare the opium lor the pipe, and about one to smoke it out, ten or twelve whiffs only being required. From six to twelve pipe-lull* are generally smoked before the smokvr is satisfied*. .The # Qhines£ resort to opium smoking for any slight aliment, and is regarded by many of them as a puiaeea for all their ills. chimney-sweepers, And is splendidly v L be work is done it will be a proud dzissedTIi. cocked hat, trimmed red and yeflow feathers,laced coat, em- ' broidtretl waist-coat, Bilk stockings, 1 arge^knee buckles, and cane with a shining knob.

Meanwhile the boy whom she had res cued, ran, wounded as he was, to seek help in the village.

We little folks were puzzled to know how their bower of green moved along of itself, but when we looked down close to the ground—why, there we sometimes saw two feet peeping out! Then we knew all about it—it was “Jack-in-the-green.” Yes, there was a pretty big man inside, and this was something, as he looked to my eyes.

Cucumber Culture.—Although the cucumber is pronounced by physicians to be very unhealthy,yet it is very gener ally cultivated: and, in fact, no kitchen garden can be complete without it. It usually sells for a good price iu market, «nd 1, for one, am very fond of it, espe cially in the form of pickles, if these are put up of culture ... six feet a parfeach one peck of well-rotted manure in each ; then till up somewhat higher than the original surface, so that after the dirt settles. It will l»e about level with the surroundingground, and plant eight or ten seeds in each hill. If very dry, I give them a sprinkling each evening after sunset, beiore they come ud a* 5 well as through the season, for they are plants which require considerable mois ture. I hoe often, and after danger from the striped bug is passed, thin to tour plants in a hill. The stnped-bug. Diobrotica vitrata, seems to bd a natur al enemy of the cucumber, and agaiusi him I haye tried all sorts of remedies which 1 have seen recommended. Boxes with thin cloth tacked over the top are effectual preventives, but if one lias many hills, devices of this sort are expensive. The last season 1 kept vines free from bugs bv the use of ashes and kerosene. I moistened the ashes w ith kerosene and applied a handful to the too strong an odor for them, and they beat a retreat.

Training Steers —The following method of training steers to work wilt be found to be a good one: First, have a yard so well and thoroughly fenced that they cannot run faraway from you —not so fat but that you are close by their side all the time. Get your steers in the yard and begin with familiariz ing them to your presence, start them around you, they doing the traveling and you looking on, talking mildly to ihem and motioning as you want them to learn. Control vour" voice. There is no brute so low iu the scale of intel ligence as not to be able n> read an angry or excited voice. So long as you ktep the voice calm, you may have the mastery—allow yourselt to become ex cited or adopt the screaming method, and you have lost a p iriiou of your control over them—that is all gained by controlling yourself. A day’s rime 111 a small yard with a yoke of steers is well spent thus, and by ui^hr they will have learned that you require certain things of them, as walking forward at your beck, etc. They may generally yoked the first day and unyoked sev- eial times. This will accustom them to being handled. Aboveall.be patient. If you discover that they cannot under stand you when'you talk to them, you should remember the greater difficulty for them to unde»>tand what is wanted, etc. When they obey the motion ol the hand and stop and start at the word you may drive them where you will jjeudy what they need teaching,and use your reason in teaching well.

When stores are put away at hap-haz- ards and taken eut at any time and at any quantity, disorder and extrava gance prevail. A store-room ought to be large, airy, cool and dry. Such a room is not always to be had, but even if a closet has to be put up with, it may be kept clean. Shelves should be ranged around the walls, hooks fas tened to the edges of the shelves. The driest and coolest parts of the room should be kept for jams, jellies and piekles. All the jars should be dis tinctly labelled at the front, so that they will not all have to be taken down every time a particular jar is wanted. Biscuits or cakes should be kept in closely-covered tin boxes; lemons should be hung in nets. Soap should be bought in large quantities, and cut up in convenient-sized pieces, so that it may be dry before it is used. Coffee, wheu roasted, snould be kept in small quantities; if unroasted, it will improve with keeping. Stores on no account .should be left in the papers in which they were sent from the grocer’s, but should be put into tin cannisters or earthen jars closely covered, and each jar, i ke the jam, should be labelled. Stores should be given out regularly, either dailv or weeklv.

He remarked the tUct that oils bought under thq«ame name, from tne same munufacturer anil at the same price, differed very much iu quality. Another remarkable circumstance was that some oils which dashed at a low point were highnrieed, and vice versa. Closing, the rfofesor recommended that manufacturers of oil should b« arouse J to a greater ocuse of their responsibility. ~ A Fanciful theory is broached by r a correspondent of the English Mechanic with regard to the effect of sound on the grow th of plants. It is stated by the writer that havlug built a small onservatory in a banen locality he attemptei the cultivation of ro<es and other plants under shelter. They did not thrive well, however, until he happened to remove an harmonium into the green house, and practising it steadily tor some months, was surpris ed to see a gradual but rapid recovery f health 011 the part of Ills plants.

Just at this season of the year, when the stomach needs an appetizer, or the blood needs purifying, the cheapest and best remedy is Hop Bitters.

Baked Fish.—Take any nice fish, boil 11, remove the bones and chop con siderable parsley very fine, with one small onion. Have about as much bread crumbs as fish. Take a pudding dish and butter it, then lay in a layer ot bread crumbs, then a layer of fish, ending with the bread crumbs. Mix your parsley aud onions with salt and pepper through your bread crumbs. Put lumps of butter over the top, a very slight grating of nutmeg, and pour over it all sweet cream, or very rich inilk, till it rises nearly to the top. Bake in a quick oven till it has a nice, rich brown crust.

A young lady says she has seen in the papers that goats eat old fruit cans, wire clothes lines, barrel staves, hoop iron, defunct coal scuttles, old boots, broken bottles and grind stones, and she a9ks if it is really true that these animals subsist 011 such a diet? It is not true. The bill of fare is slightly exa £g er ated. A goat will not ear boots as long as there aie any old hoop-skirrs about the premises, and their line of food must be drawrn at broken bottles. Probably if a goat was buried eight days in a coal mine, witli no food save a lor of broken bottlos, he would devour them before he would undertake to eat through a solid vein of coal seventy-five feet thick, but it is extremely doubtful. Eaten by Worms. Mr. Samuel Myers is now lying bed fast at his home in Dallas, Texas, af flicted with that terrible malady, the screw worm. Mr. Meyers has been sickof late with fever, aud while rest ing in bed, one of the flies alighted near his nostrils. It requires but a tew mo ments for one of these flies to deposit hundreds of eggs, which are hatched and are grown inside of an hour, many of them as much as one-half inch in length. Mr. M°vers upon awakening felt a slight tickling in the nose, and it was not until Ills eyes and face had be come fearfully swollen that the physi cian discovered the presence of the worms. The only known remedy was applied—calomel hnd carbolic acid—by injection into the nostrils. At first they w ould drop their hold and force theinselve» out. Application after ap plication was made with like results until 152 were passed. The patient is in a critical condition, with but slight hopes of his recovery. The fly is much dreaded by our stockmen, and is repre sented as a dark-colored and fuzzy in sect which generally attacks cattle or any other animal that is unfortunate enough to have blood upon which they can alight. Woman’s Wisdom.—“She insists that is more Importance, that her family shall be kept in full health, than that she should have all the fashionable dresses and styles of the times. She therefore sees to it, that each member of her family is supplied with enough Hop Bitters, at the first appearance of any symptoms of ill health, to prevent a fit ol sickness with its attendant ex pense, care and anxiety. All women should exercise their wisdom in this way.”—Ed. Speak oi a man’s marKTe brow and he will glow* with conscious pride, but al lude to his wooden head and he’s mad in a minute.

An old ram iu the yard hearing the noise and seeing Piggy’s hind-legs and tail flour ishing away i*i a menacing manner, ac cepted the challenge, and lowering his head charged with all his might. He struck his mark squarely and fairly, and the pig shot through the hole like cannon-ball, and hit his master uil 111 the breast, knocking him flat on hi&Jback.
