, Tim number of iniUncei given where
perton. have peruhcd with the cold in the
region of country wet and northwest of ui
the present winter, U wholly without a
parallel. The hixtorjr of moot of (lie
case i singular they start from given
point, get lust on the prairie, and are found
dead. We find I ho following melancholy
account in illustration in the La Cre
Republican: " We learn from a gentle
man rctiding near lied Kock or Crown
villo, east of Austin, Minnesota Territory,
that twelve persons have pi-rUied in the
now storms this winter, Utwcn that
place and West Union. It is reported that
two boys were petting wood with a juke of
oxen, when the drifting snow fillej up the
track and blinded their light, on the re
turn. Ik-lioving the cattle woulJgo home,
they fattened themselves 10 the sled to
prevent falling ofl" when loo far frozen to
help themselves on again. The cattle
came boine, sure enough, but tho brave
little drivers had perished in each other's
arm!'' Some fifteen year ago, a maa
wat driving a yoke of oxen from a tar
ticuUr place home, in what is now Warren
county, in this State. A driving snow
storm came on, he becama bewildered, lost
the direction and was benumbtd wiib the
cold. In this condition he bad the pres
ence of mind and precaution to tie secure
ly an arm to each ox's tail, and trust to the
instinct of the brutes to find their way
home. In this way he was half dragged
many miles, till he found himself safely
conducted to the door of his own cabin,
badly frozen, but safe in life and limb.
Galena AJeerliier, lUlh.
Rich Hlorj.
A tall, awkward looking chnp just from
the green mountains of Vermont, came en
board one of the splendid North River
boats at Albany. His curiosity was amnz
ingly excited at once, and he commenced
" peeking," a he calied it, into every nook
and corner of tho boat. The captain's
closet, the engine room, the water closets,
the harder shop, all underwent his inspec
tion ; mi J when he went on deck and stood
in ainszcincnl nl the lever beam, the thin),
nrys, and tho various 6xins," till nt last
he cuulit sight of tho bell. This was the
crowning wonder, aud he viewed it from
every position, walking around it, got down
on his knees and looked up into it, and ex
claimed :
Wall, rnly,this bents tho hell on our
meeting house a darned sight,'
liy this lime, ilia attention of the cap
tain and several of the passengers was at
tracted to this genius.
'How much would you ask to h t n 111
ler ring this bell I'
You may ring it for a dollar, sir,' suid
the captain.
Well, it's a bargain, all fair and ngrec,
and no backing eout.1
It's a bargain, sir,' said the captain.
Our hero went deliberately ami brought
a scat and took hold of the boll rope, ami
having arranged everything to hi wilUfac
lion, commenced ringing, slowly at first,
and gradually fatter and faster till every
body on board thought tho boat was on firo,
and rushed on deck, scroaiuiu with ulurm.
There stood the captain, and there ant
the ' Vairmounter,' ringing away, first
slow nnd then fast, aud two or three lap
at a time. Tho passengers began to epos
tulute ; the captain said it was a bargain.
Hut the passengers becama urgent that the
eternal clangor should be stopped. All
the whilo there sat our hero undisturbed,
ringing away more ways than a cockney
uhiinc-ringcr ever dreamed of. At lust
the captain began to think it time to stop
the simpleton ; hut hi answer was :
' A fuir bargain ard no bucking eout,'
nnd ho rang away for dunr life.
' Well,' nys the captain, ' what will
you Inko to stop I'
' Wsll.ctp'n, I gues I shea tit lose noth
ing if 1 lake live dollar and a free passage
to Now York, but not a darned cent less.'
1 Well, walk down to the oflico and get
your money aud passage ticket,' said the
captain.

A Wealthy Church. In the city of
Mexico there are 150 convent.'), nnd the
number of the secular clergy is 10,000.
The salary of the archbishop is 130,000
a year, and the other bishop receive $.'80,
000 more. A recent valuation of the prop
erly owned l the church computes it at
froin f r0,000,000 to 300,000,000. It
i staled that the church own one half of
the house in the city.

Tioveibs yon Puxtus. Farmers
and others will beed the following, what
ever they may think of book or fancy farm
ing generally. They will direct the at
tention of their son to these Universal
Rule, and commend every eae to follow
them. We are indebted for most of ibem
to that excelle nt manual, ihe Illustrated
Rgiter of Rural Affair, every lina f
which is a text in itself for more elab
orate article.
Never keep animals on short allowance
if you starve them, iLcy wi'l surely
ittrve you.
Although, in draining land thoroughly,
your purse may be drained, yet the full
crop that f Ilu w ill soon fill it again.
Trying to farm without capital is like
trting to run a locomotive without fuel.-
Money and wood must both be consumed,
if they are to move lbs machino of the
farm or of the rail.
Always give the soil the first meal. If
this is well fed with manure, it will feed
all else plants, animals and man.
If you wish to give an energetic move
ment to all your farm machinery, and keep
its hundred wheels in rotation, be sure not
to be without a good rotation of crops.
If you allow your animals to shiver,
your fortune will be shivered in conse
quence ; that is, the farmer who leaves his
cattle to the winds, will fiud bis profits also
given to the winds.
Heavy carrot crops for cattle will soon
return carats of gold.
Did you ever hear the musical notes of
a starving herd of hogs ? Extinguish by
food those notes speedily, if you would
avoid even more annoying notes after pay
day has passed.
Many a farmer, by too sparingly seeding
his new meadows, has bad to cede bis
whole farm.
Every farmer should see daily every
animal he has, and inspect it condition
Weekly vi.ils, as with some, soon result in
weakly animal.
Sectarian Lovsns. About thirty-five
years ago, there resided in the town of II.,
a certain Dr. T., who became very much
enamored of a beautiful young lady, who
resided in the samo town. In duo course
of time they were engaged to be married.
Tho Doctor was a strong Presbyterian,
his laily love was a strong and decided
Rapiitl. They were sitting together one
evening talking of their appronching nnp
ti.ds when Ihe Doctor remarked :
'I am thinking, my dear, of two events
which I shall number among tho happiest
of my life. '
"And pray what mny Ihry be, Docloi f "
remarked the lady.
''Ono is the hour when I shall call yea
wife for the first time."
"And the other!"
"It is " hen wc shall present onr first born
fur biptism."
"What! sprinkled !"
"Yes, my dear, sprinMud."
"Nuver shall a child of mine be sprin
kled !"
"Every child of niino shall bo sprinkled !"
"They shall be, hal"
"Ys my love."
"Well, sir, I can tell you your babies
won't bo my babies. Sa good night, sir !"'
The lit Jy loft the room, and the Doctor
loft the house. The sequel to this truo story
was that tho Doctor never married, and tho
lndy is ail old maid.
A Scene in Court. Somo time ago,
the following occurrence look plnce in one
of our courts: Among the crowd of ap
plicants was an Irishman named O'Drien,
who in his own expressive words, was
"wanting his paper." He was a short,
thick-set man, and looked ns if ho could
hnntlle n shillelagh iu true Hibernian style.
His witness was a tall raw-boned son of Erin,
who in being placed before the Judge, wns
interrogated and answered ns follows :
Judge What is you r name, sir !
Witness l'atrick O'Dcnnis your Honor.
Judge Do you know O'Brien !
Witness Yes, sir.
Jnvlge How long has he been in this
country.
Witness a little over five years.
Judge Is ha a man of good moral char
acter. Witness (quite bewildered) Sure, your
Honor, I don't know what moral character
manes.
Judge Wull, sir, I will peak more
plainly to you. Does O'Drien stand fair
before tho community (
Witness (oomplulcly nonplussed) By
my sow), I don't apprehend your mailing,
your Honor.
Judge (rather irritaied) I moan to ask
you, sir, if O'Brien, the person w ho wants
to be a citizen, and for whom you are a wit
ness, is a good man or not I
Witness Ok 1 why didn't you ax mo
that way before ! To be sure, he is a good
man. Sure and I've seen him in ten fights
during the last two year, and every time
he licked his man.
A Cause of National Glort. Two
centurie and a half ago, tho legislature of
Scotland enacted that "u good and Mjficirnt
scM" hou!d be erected and maintained
in every parish in the kingdom, the wisdom
of which enactment is abundantly demon,
strated ly tho present condition of that
country.

grasshoppers have eaten up the entire to

last that was heard from them, they were
