SOME OVERLAND SKETCHES.

[By tlm “Dacota Bell’ Man.]
Tlie Xi ir Fiii/biini Farm Mirror and
Dairy < 1 milt thinks tlmt it lias found a
new source of wool sti),ply. It says:
“It would seem its if a rival of the sheep
as heretofore a wool-producer lias arisen Tho
worthless Western jack-rabbit
is being sheared in some quarters, and
is said to produce an article of wool
equal to lambs friend wool and even finer.”
Our Fustem should not get too
sanguine. There is no need to get
frightened nud go to selling off vour
sheep for mutton. should If the editor of the
Farm Monitor ever go out on the
prairie slow, and but see nevertheless a jack-rabbit while presenting walk¬
ing
the optical illusion of n gray streak two
miles and a half long, lie would prob¬
ably the doomofthe think tlmt it was all right and tlmt
sheep was sealed. And
it would lie if ho ooula shear the streak.
The day lie walked along down one side
a streak of jack-rabbit for two miles
Mid a lmlf shearing tin article of wool
equal to lamb's wool and even finer, and
then moved his way back the other side,
would be very cool for tlie sheep,
But he can’t do it, you see. He can’t
even catch the rabbit and shear that. If
our dignified and scholarly New Eng
land editor could get astride of ti quick
and active liitve of chain lightning and

The Useful Bamboo.
In whatever nature may have been
sparing as regards natural resources in
this sated country, by bestowing she has evidently couipen
for upon it the bam
hoo plant, writes it correspondent from
( hiim to the St. Louis Jle/.iiblirm,.
There are no less t han 50 varieties of the
bamboo, the growth of which is favored
by certain localities, and eiu-h is pos
sosed of some special quality adapting
it to the manufacture of useful articles.
For instance, the >ui chuck i water bam
boo , growing tall, straight in swam; aud s light, and ponds, and
is very is
of largely | sails, and employed in tin* manufacture in the framework of cheap
baskets, joss sticks, ct I’he voting
and tender shoots of this variety are also
u-ed for food The tai chuck, which
grows to the a great height, furnishes boats poles
used in propelling of through
mirrow cunftls or sh.illow wnturn. In «i
crowded river like the Canton, where it
is often impossible to use the oar-, the
boat is moved along either by tom liing
the river bed with the Jong t amboo or
by booking on to other craft. A long
aud flexible variety called n'gon chuck
makes tlie best boat hooks, which, in the
larger coolie employed ports, like Swatow and
Amoy, are in a novel method
of boarding steamers. When a coolie
steamer from tin- -outli arrives, several
hundred sampans will rush alongside,
and the occupants, hooking ou to the
gunwale or railing, grasp the slender
bamboo witii the band-, and, with feet
against the side of tlie vessel, they c-i.ini
her on board the biggest iron steamers
witii tlie agility people,* of monkeys. In fact,
these sampan in their haste to
solicit the patronage of their returned
brethren, scorn a gangway ladder when
a bamboo boat book is convenient. Mai
chuck (carrying pole bamboo) is of
extreme toughness, and with these poles
all merchandise and movable property on
land are transferred from one point
to another on the shoulders of coolies,
The pan chuck is used in making chop
sticks, fat too chuck for walking canes,
quan yum chuck for pens, while other
species, even including the thorny and
dwarfish lac such chuck, variety growing on loeky
hills, have a of purposes that
a large volume might kind lie filled with their
description. One is made into
ropes and rigging for junks, or is woven
into hits, mats and sails, while the long
leaves of another are made into pict

Useful Hints.
Never use for cake milk th: a has been
boi.'ed.
Matches should always lie kent iu a
stone or earthen jar, or in tin.
Ash or light wood floors are lii-i-lili-ned
by wiping over with skimmed milk in
stead of water,
Egg shells will clean vinegar hot ties £
cruets as well as shot, and posse- r
merit of always being on band in vc 2
kitchen. ^
Do not allow the spice , box to bet-omt
d'sorderly. Have each division carefully
Libelled and permit no mixing of tin
contents.

This I beheld, or dreamed it in a dream:
There spread a cloud of dust along a plain ;
And underneath the cloud, or in it, raged
A furious battle, and men yelled, and swords
Shocked upon swords and shields. A prince's
banner
Wavered, then staggered backward, hemmed
by foes.
A craven hung along the battle’s edge,
And thought: “ Had I a sword of keener
steel—
That blue blade that the King's son bears
but this]
Blunt thing!—’’ he snupt and flung it from
his hand,
And lowering crept away and left the field.
Then came the King' s son, wounded, sore
bestead,
And weaponless, and saw the broken sword,
Hilt-buried in the dry and trodden sand,
And ran and snatched it, and with battle
shout
Lifted afresh he hewed his enemy down,
And saver! a great cause that heroic day.

Hostelries in Hernia.
Across the Persian frontier the khan
retires in favor of the elmpar-khana (post
house) and caravanserai, writes Thomas
Stevens in the New York Suit. These
institutions are found along the main
highways thirty of travel , from twenty to
miles apart. ' I’he former are sta
tions for changing horses when traveling
elmpar, brick or horseback; the lattei are
huge buildings for the shelter of
caravans and travelers The chapar-j
khana is something of F5 improvement:
upon the khan of Tui f. There is'
usually a fairly snug room, and men
eager to earn money by attending to
one's wants. The Persian chnpnr-jee is
a individual more provident the and money-earning Turk,’i
than unbusiness-like
and he generally has a few hens scratching
about the stables. Eggs are almost ul-,
ways to be obtained from him, and grease
of some kind to fry them with. Per-.
Phance helms about the place a batteredj
Russian samovar: if so, and the traveler
lms brought with him tea and sugar, the
ehnpar-jee will consider himself in samovar! clover!

to shiver the midnight hours away with'

One of the chapar-jee’s
weaknesses is to seize a bunch of earned
thorn upon the traveler's arrival and fill
the room with dust by vigorously »w(;ep-'
ing the dry dirt floor. Another one is to 1
fill th. room with blinding cloud} oft
smoke while cooking your eggs or!
chicken. lie has been used to those
little discomforts all bis life; he sees'
nothing and extraordinary in a room full of
smoke and lie people infrequently with watering drives eyes,- the
not
traveler quite out doors. But with all’
these faults, many a European traveler in
Persia has risen up and called the chapar-'
jee blessed. 1
The caravanserai is a different place
entirely from the ehupar-khana. It is'
simply a place of shelter, both for men 1
and animals. Sometimes it is a huge
square building, looted completely in;
others are quit'll angular affairs surround¬
ing an open courtyard. In either form
the camels and horses occupy the central
space, and the people along timl the shelter in edge, lit¬
tle doorh ss rooms outer
culled men/.il 1 he floor of the long
rows of menzils is elevated three or four
feet above the court\ard, and the door¬
ways are merely arelu-s in the heavy brick¬
work of the serai. The caravanserics of
Persia are public having institutions, been built many by Shah of
the largest
Abbass the (Irout for the is protection entitled of
caravans. Every traveler to
shelter in them without charge. Attached
to the caravanserai, u-ually beneath the
massive arched entrance, is a stall where
bread, eggs, fruit, charcoal, purchases etc., maybe
obtained. The tra Her a suf¬
ficiency of charcoal or tezek, buys what¬
ever be can lind acceptable to eat, builds
a tire mi the brick floor of ids nienzil,and
proceeds to make himself comfortable.
Every Persian his tmw-l'-r is supposed utensils, to
carry with him own cooking
bedding, etc. tin a pinch, however, one
can obtain a frying pan or kettle of some
kind, and, as in the case at the chapar
khana, a blanket or quilt, from the pro¬
prietor of the provision stall.
An Kx-Executioner's Little Show
A correspondent writes: Binns, the
ex-hangman, is traveling with a show,
in which he reveals his art for the enter¬
tainment of tji - large crowds who collect
to see him perform the happy despatch.
The subject is a wax figure representing
Mrs. Berry, the Oldham poisoner The
showman, a young man, first gives a
biographical sketch of Binns, then the
curtain is wrung up. revealing a scaffold
with the regular cross beam, and the
subject standing on surpliced the drop strapped chaplain
hands and feet. A

governor on the other, while two re¬
porters, or individuals to represent them,
watch the grim proceedings. Binns,
black bag in hand, steps forward, ex¬
tracts the rope, places the noose around
the subject’s neck, and when the feeling
of the spectators pitch, draws has been wrought bolt, and to the an
