New Yorki Oct. 27. The moderate
rains of the past day or two have brought
but partial relief to the industries depen
dent on water power; the drying up of
streams in the Atlantic Mates mav be
said to entend from Androskoggan down
to the James, and even some ot the local
rivers, like the Delaware, are fordable at
points where such a thing has not 'been
known for many years. The drought,
however, is felt more seriously nt the
eastward, and its effects are beginning to
be felt in commercial as well as manu
facturing circles. The Boston Journal of
yesterday, says the scarcity of water is
having a bad etiectupoii nearly all kinds
of merchandise, restricting the demand
especially for raw materials. Cotton,
woolen and paper mills are all running
on short time. In Pennsylvania, New
Jersey and Delaware not a few important
inaustries have been brought to a dead
halt by stoppage of the mills. The Pas
saic and Raritan are unpreeedently low.
The Brandywine is quite dry, and at
Wilmington and other places in that part
of the country several establishments
have been compelled to shut down.
Summing up the Prospects.
Cuicago, Oct. 27. The Times, summing
us prospects of the campaign, says it has
concentrated now in .New York. Before
the October elections it concentrated
elsewhere. Republican tactics do not by
any means include abandonment of Con
necticut, New Jersey and Maine. They
are conducting a fairly igorous canvass
in those states also, so neresary to their
success if they lose New lork, but they J
have evidently determined to light the
enemy on his own grounds and make
their victory more crushing by carrying
his center at the same moment they turn
bis wings. The republicans can spare
New York and the demodrats cannot.
But, notwithstanding this, the republi
cans are making ten times more vigorous
effects to carry "that state than are the
democrats.

Ways to Use Up Stale Bred.
Charles r ranees gives the J'rmrie
Farmer an essay on this subject from
which we take the following recipes :
Bro wis.--Butter the bottom of your
saucepan and put your fresh milk into
it. The butter will prevent the milk
from sticking. Bring to a boil and sea
son with salt and a generous piece of but
ter. Have the bread broken into little
bits, and as soon as the butter melts stir
them in until all the milk is absorbed.
Serre immediately, as longer cooking
will make it sticky.
Bread Fritters. Slice tho bread and
cut off the crust making the slices of
uniform shape. Soak theso in a custard
made of a cup of milk, one egg, and a
little sugar and llavoring. llemove them
before they get so soft as to break. Dip
each piece in rolled bread crumbs, then
in beaten e;;gs,aud then in bread crumbs

The Three Rogues.
A peasant was taking a goat to Bagdad.
He was mounted on a donkey, and the
goat, with a bell tied around its neck,
was following him. Three rogues saw
this little company go past, and desired
to enrich themselves.
Said the one, "May I carry off that
fellow's goat in such a way that he shall
never be able to ask it again of me?"
And the other cried, "Grant me the
wit to rob him of the ass on which he is
mounted."
"Oh, truly, what an exploit!" ex
claimed the third. "What would you
say if I meant so to despoil him of his
clothes that he will actually bo obliged
to me?"
The first rascal following the traveller
softly, by stealth took the bell from the
goat s neck, fastened it to the ass s tail,
made off wilh his booty,
rh(T m"n' still riding theaas.Wd the
sounu oi tne uen constantly ueninu mm,
and never for one instant imagined that
the goat was no longer there, till, by-and-by
he happened to turn around. Pic
ture to yourself his astonishment when
he could not see the animal that he
had been taking to market to sell I Of
everyone who passed he asked news of
his goat. Presently the second rogue
met him, who answered, "At the corner
of yonder lane I saw a man running off,
dragging a goat along with him."
The countryman jumped from his ass
saying "Please take charge of my don-1
ivuj , iimi iij.ii in it: 1 uuu uuici 111 mu 1.111
he supposed him to have taken.
Avhen he had been running hither and
thither for some time, he came back to
find that neither ass nor keeper was to be
seen. Our two rascals had already got
far awav, both well content with their
booty. The third now awaited the
simple man, leaning against a well by
which the latter must pass. Then with
loud wails, he began to lament so bitterly
that the loser of the ass and goat was led
to accost a person who seemed thus
aillicted. Approaching he said, "What
are you grieving about? I am sure you
cannot have had as much ill luck as I
have had. I have lost two animals, the
price of which would have made my
fortune."
"Oh, but think what a loss mine is!"
exclaimed the thief. "Have you, like
me, over let a casket lull 01 diamonds tall
into a well when vou are told to carry
thein to the judgV I shall perhaps be
hanged for theft."
"But why do you not godowu into the
well?" asked the countryman; "it is not
very deep."
"Alas! I am not clever enough, said
the rogue. "I would rather run the
risk of being hanged than drown myself.
which I should certainly do: but if
there were anyone willing to do me tin
service, 1 would giauiy give nim ten
pieces of gold."
"Promise me those ten pieces ot gold,
cried the poor dupe, thinking the sum
would more than repay him for the loss
of his animals, "and I will get you your
casket back"
No sooner said than doue. He threw
off his clother with such rapidity, and
descended into the well so quickly, that
the robber saw at once that he would
scarcely have time to possesss himself of
his spoil. The countryman having
reached uottom 01 the wen without nnn-
ing any casket there, came up again, and
was sneedilv aware of his new misfor
tune. Thus clothes, ass, and goat ha
alll irone different directions: and their
unlucky-owner, with all his toil, could
scarcely find people charitable enough
to be willing to clothe him.
The moral is, be earful of the company

The Old Forests Unfertile Sea.
In many districts, says an English
scientific paper, where our shores are
shelving as near the mouths of the Tay,
the Huber and Severn after a more than
ordinary tempestuous day, wo see quan
tities of a peaty looking matter cast up
by the sea, and the entire beach black
ened with its triturated fragments. If
we examine any of the larger pieces of
this black looking matter, we find that it
is made up of dark clay filled with peat,
pieces of wood, mosses, equisetums ami
the like, the characteristic vegetation of
cold, moist ground. This is washed up
by the sea from old forest beds,
now submerged below the level
of tho waters. In excavations
for docks and bridges these ancient
tloors are cut into by the workmen. Eve
rywhere we find them to be composed of
some thickness of peaty matter, in which
lie prostrate trunks of the oak, the fir
and our common forest trees, the old
roots of the inonarchs of the forest stood
in place, and scattered on the old forest
floors lie the acorns and hazel nuts that
dropped from the trees of the wood in
its prime, and the sub-fossil antlers of
the deer and elk that roamed the forest
glades. The whole is usually Inrriml un
der a much later accumulation of sand
and clay, full 01 our commonest sea
shells, laid down by the sea waters that
have overspread the site of the old for

A man who had been out with the
boys, reached home at a l:le hour in the
night and found on taking an inventory
01 the contents of his pockets the next
morning, that his wealth consisted of
four coppers, a slice of lemon peel, a
chip of sassafras bark, a few bits of
crackess, several cloves, a raw peanut,
and the stump of a cigar. He has since
concluded that soda water is a good
enough beverage when not mixed too
frequently with wink syrup.

The annual volume on the crops of
the various corn-growing countries of
the world has, just been issued by
Mons. Bruy Estienne, of Marseilles, and
the reports it contains occupy several
hundred large quarto pages. A map
showing in various colors the state of the
wheat crop in the different departments
of France is also given. Of the whole
of the cereal crops of France the reports
are good. The wheat crop is in five de
partments very good, in seventeen de
partments good, in twenty-six depart
ments fairly, in sixteen departments me
dium, and in six departments only, bad.
Oats are very good in twenty-eight de
partments, and in iorty departments.
fairly good iu seven departments, medi
um in six departments, bad iu two de
parmeiits, and very bad in one depart
ment, lhe maize crop, grown chief!- m
the southern departments, is fairly good,
in three departments is very good, in
nineteen good, in five fairly good, in five
medium, and in one only, bad. Kye is
reported as very good in eleven depart
ments, good in fifty-throe departments,
fairly good in six departments, and me
dium in three departments. Barloy is
the best crop of the year in France. In
twenty -six departments it is very good,
in forty good, in five fairly good,
and in three medium. In no department
is either the rye or barley crop declared
to be bad. So far as other countries are
concerned, with the exception only of
Russia, the reports are generally favora
ble. In upper Italy the crops are re
ported as yielding 30 per cent, above the
average. Bnr&eiia and Upper and
Lower Bavaria stand next on the list,
with a jjroduce of 25 per cent, over an
average, and these are followed by Podo
lia and fcjwabia, with an over average pro
duction of 20 per cent. In the south of
Italy and Bavaria and iu Wurtemburg
the estimates are of crops 15 per cent,
over average; while in Bessarabia they
are 10 per cent. over. The crops of the
year are 5 per cent, over average in Hun
gary. Poland, Belgium, and the United
States of America. Average crops, with
out either surplus or deficit, have oeen
grown in Prussia, the Palatinate, Baden,
Switzerland, Denmark, Sweden, Norway.
Central It ly, Holland, the north of
l'ussia, Serbia and Egypt. Deficiencies
of 15 per cent, are reported in Great
Britain, Ireland and Saxony. In Cour
land tho deficiency is put down at 20 per
cent , and in Gothland, another Russian
province, at 25 per cent, under average
In Central Russia the crops are so bad
that the deficit is estimated at 40 per
cent, below average. The commercial
summary which accompanies the report
shows that Europe will largely depend
for much of her breadstuff's from Amer
ica, and that there is every prospect of
fairly good and remunerative prices be
ing obtained for cereals this year.

A Rival to the Sea-Serpent.
Tho sea serpent has a rival. It is a
land animal; an animal as large, as fan
tastic and as elusive as the celebrated
monster of the sea and at least twice as
mysterious.
The miuhocao is the new wonder. A
verv slight change in his name might
have prejudiced the world against it
as for instance, if it had been baptized
minhoaxo. It is well fathered in the
realms of science, being brought to no
tice by one Fritz Muller, of Brazil, in
the Zooloijiache Garten, and receiving a
full page of large type in a recent num
ber of Suture. The miuhocao is be
lieved to be a resident of the region of
South America where the Uruguay and
Parana rivers have their sources. The an
imal is said by different observers to
have the following characteristics : it is
worm-shaped; about eighty-tw o feet long
(by guess), and more than a yard thick,
"not very long." however, accord
ing to another account; two horns on
the head; a snout like a pig; a less defi
nite description makes the animal "as
big as a house," and measurement of the
tracks indicate its j)ossible width at six
and a half to ten feet. Some years ago,
it is said, there Avas a dead miuhocao
wedged in the cleft of a rock near
Araphey, Uruguivy; its skin was as thick
as the bark of a pine tree, and formed of
hard scales like those of the armadillo.
The new animal is, however, chiefly
known by his works. Great trenches are
found in this region, which are supposed
to be the evidence of the miuhocao s in
dustry. Heaps of earth are turned up in
the process, and where pine trees stand
in the way of the trench, they are rooted
up. and sometimos part of their bark and
wood may be torn off. The devastation
of this performance, which is chiefiy
near or under the surface of the earth,
though often under the bed of a stream,
is enormous. In one case the entire side
of a hill was undermined, it is supposed
by two of these animals, and was
traversed by deep trenches. By such
proceedings marshes have been drained,
or dry land converted into morass, and
the courses of streams entirely changed.
Some of the trenches are spoken of :is
being from three fourths of a mile to a
milo in length. They are excavated with
great rapidity.
It will be noticed that the new aspirant
for fame has been almost as little seen as
the sea-serpent. The subterranean mon
ster is simply more fortunate than the
submarine,' in leaving lnoro palpaple
traces than a wake of foam. We may ex
pect soon to hear of a scientific expedi
tion to Uruguay in search of tho miuho
cao. Whether it will be found like a
ceratodus, or a lepidosiren, or a grypto
dont, it is vet too soon to guess; possi
bly when unearthed it will be recognized
oq u,p dpsnfiiident of one of tho gigantic
armadillos that certainly dwelt in South
America during the reptilian age

of
Pecuniary Independence.
We talk a great deal about our politi
cal, intellectual, moral and social inde
pendence; all the world has heard us
talk about them. We do not enjoy them
as fully, perhaps, as we think. How
much independence of thought has the
journalist, for instance, who must bid
for an audience, the author whose first
thought must be never to displease a
reader, the orator who must repeat tho
stock notions of his hearers, tho profes
sor who has to reconcile evolution with
theology; how much liberty of action has
the voter who depends upon a govern
ment salary, or who is in a politician's
employ? One can not very seriously
blame these people, to whom mdepena-
i ITT I. I. T
ence oiten means starvation, u uu x
want to set in clear light is this: that in
dependence in lifo and thought depeuds
more than we like to believe, upon pecu
niary independence; it is not to be had
by wishing merely. Individuals there
are, and always will be, who will
sufier for their moral or in
tellectual independence; but communi
ties will be what circumstances make
them. This, again, I want to set in
clear light: that we are, as a commu
nity, deficient, in suite of all our na
tional wealth, aud unnecessarily de-
ficient, in the be&t part o"f independence'
the power to enjoy our lives. Iu this
respect we are behind our friends in
France, with their two millious of
rjeople living upon their incomes.
These two millions of people are
not, for the most part, either idle, or
frivolous, or wealthy people. Many of
them live in the cities, but most of
them are quiet people living on their
modest properties in the country, and
enjoying their competence in a rational
way enjoying friendships, social pleas
ures, family affections, and all the
kindly observances of home life in a way
that we have little idea of in a way
that the tourist in Paris sees nothing
of. We have much to learn from the
French, and among the things that we
have to learn are some that may surprise
us. One of the things is the comfort,
the unity and the permanence of French
homes. The French home aud family, their
happiness, their unity, their permanence,
these have been developed by the com
bined industry, thrift, and domestic
sentiment of the most intelligent people
in Europe, and especially by its great
middle class. We have the significant
testimony of Prince Bismark "that the
French nation has a social solidity such
as no other nation of Europe enjoys."
And Mr. Matthew Arnold from whose
"Mixed Essays" I quote, adds: "This
can only come from the 1 road basis of
well-being, and of cause for satisfaction
with life, which in France, more than in
other countries, exists." If we had two
millions of people, or one million, who
were enjoying a competence, earned or
inherited, can it be doubted that we
should be a happier people, and a better
one than we are? France and tho United
States have this important feature in
common in each country nearly one
half of the people live directly by agri
culture; but our country homes and
families have not attained the comfort or
the permanence of theirs. Harper's
Magazine.
Balky Horses.
A correspondent of The JZuralist
writes: Many and varied have been the
plans, both kind and harsh, tried for tho
cure of balkiness in horses, by -parties
troubled, delayed and provoked in this
way. Having had considerable expe
rience in the handling of such horses, I
have found the following a good remedy.
It is easily and quickly performed, and
has never, so far as lam aware, failed to
care.
Two persons aro required for the trial.
One should hold the reins while the
other fastens a short strap or rope a
halter strap, always at hand, answers the
purpose well just below the fetlock of a
fore leg; then goiug forward, he should
pull the strap until the horse lifts his
foot; continuing to pull, the foot will be
brought forward and set down
a little in advance of the other. The
horse thus thrown out of a natural posi
tion, will move forward to gain his equi
librium. Another pull will cause an
other move forward. This may be re
peated several L'mes, or until the horse
moves without having the foot jmlled
forward. Usually, the first or second
pull will start him. Three or
four such reminders at most will do
the work. When the start is made it is
generally an easy one. Sometimes, how
ever, it has the appearance of the horse
being in a hurry to get away from tho
provoking man with the strap; therefore
a steady hand should manage the reins.
I have never known a horse under this
treatment to kick or to act mean in any
other way than to try to run. When he
docs start off the hold on tne strap
should be given up. After having gone
twenty-five or more yards the horse
should gently be brought to a stand and.
the strap removed. Then try to start
him without the strap. If he does not
move off at once apply it again. He will
soon tire of being thus annoyed, and
will give you no further trouble in this
way.
