Phillip Held, a young farmer living fourteen miles west rf Lemars, Iowa, shot and instantly killed hia mother, and shortly afterward committed sui cide. The trouble which existed for some time in the family culminated in a t quabble over selling a horse. Hardy Foy, colored, was lynched at I Bessemer, Alabama, for an attempt to rape a girl 15 years of age. 1 he town is surrounded by armed negroes, who threaten to bum the house and kill the citiiens to avenge the lynching of Posey. Seven children in less than two years is the record ot Mrs. Phoebe Lynch, of Seymour, Ind., who eigh teen months ago gave birth to triplets, and who to-eiav ia the mother of two bovs and two girls.

Hundreds of thousands who were slaves have been freed in the past few years, and it is proioeed to set a fixed and early day when slavery shall cease. Dexter, the famous trotter, died at the stable of Robert Bonner, in New York. He waa thirty years old. He died of old age and exhaustion. Dtx ter was the greatest trotter of bis day He waa the hrst horse to trot a mile in 2:17. John Bogard, 16 years old, pleaded guilty at Kansas City, Mo., to murder in the hrst degree.

His head was fearfully bruised either by a "club or sand bag. He was taken to the station house, and was partially restored to sensibility. He says while he was walking along the levee a man ran np to him and knocked him in the head. At a prayer meeting at a colored church in Berkeley county, S. C, two young men got into a row about a girl. They broke the meeting up. The preachers and ctrarch officers at tempted to quiet the quarreling men, iut they did not succeed. One of the men, named Brown, drew a pistol and blew the brain of his antagonist, Richardson, out right in the church building. The murderer has been ar rested and jailed. A duel between women occurred on the Island of Corsica. The two vira goes concerned were named Frances ca Fortunati and Benoita Pasqualini. A long and bitter hatred existed be tween them, and during a quarrel they agreed that one must die. Stilettos were the weapons employed, and they were plied with mad energy ana rap idity. After a short and sharp strug , gle Benoita Paequilini fell, stricken through the heart with her adversary's stiletto. Fire broke out in tbe second floor of a four-etory flat at New York. The building filled with smoke, the inmates thought that retreat waa cut off, and, panic-stricken, endeavored to escape by the windows. Mrs. Cook jumped from a third floor rear window into the . yard, and was almost instantly killed. Her husband followed her, and also jumped from the same rear window, and was so badly injored that he will probably die. Catherine Mahoney, a servant of the Cook family was ser oiusly injured, aa were a number of others. A shooting affair occurred at St Helena, Cal., which will doubtless re sult in the death of a young man named Budd Vann. He, with some companions, were standing near a house of ill fame, when one of the crowd threw a-roc'' through the win 1 dow of the house, striking one of the inmates. Grahasir brother to one of the woinen of the house, was inside at the time, and picking ups revolver, fired into the crowd, hitUtg young Vann in th abdomen, and inflicting a fatal wound.

Since the f ital days of 1833, many ot the doctrines ot the schoolman concerning exteusive medication have been abandoned, and all schools of practice are more and more relying upon old fashioned simple root and herb preparations and careful nursing, the only reliances known to our an cestors.

PROFIT FROM POULTRY. Rmnnrtlr Basin Whea CoaRnee Wlthla Certain Limit. ComparatiTely fw fanners, who raise nore or le poultry, ever keep an nc niiut ef expenditures and receipts, ind so the real condition of the balance heet is practically unknow. Some will imagine that the keeping of pout try resulta In profit while others claim that "it cost more than it comes to." A neighboring farmer commenced, on the first of January. 1&37, with sixty hen and roosters, and during the en tire years kept a careful account of all rxpensi'S and receipts, and waa well t&tisticd wilh the rvdiilt. Not having all the figures at hand we ran only give the general result On the first of fanuary, 18-SH, he had seventy fowls, ten more than he started with; had sold nearly K) worth of chickens, enough to pay for all the food pro vided, and had sold between (70 and SO worth of eggs. In this trial the feed was of the greatest variety and given warm, in the morning. loth Summer and winter. It consisted of wheat buckwheat corn, oats, meat scraps, ground bone, line ftn?d. and meal scahle.l, with condiments of gin ger, pepper, sulphur, etc. The feed at night waa eorn and buckwheat. In this caso the cost of keeping the fowls fell somewhat below what is generally considered an average. We have no ticed a good many records of the cost of keeping fowls, and the average did not fall a great way below one dollar per he id, but in this case the cost varied tut little from eighty cents per head. Nor has any mention been made of the manure that can be accumulated from a flock of sixty fowls when upon their roosts if properly taken care of. But of course this would serve as an offset to the time spent in caring for the same. . The poultry business, when confined Within certain - limits, may without doubt be made a profitable branch of farm industry, and anyone knows that there is always a healthy demand for fresh eggs in preference to those thai have already been shipped a long dis tance and.arw of a doubtful harartar.

Superstition about mystery in th art haa nearly disappeared. It is a common observa tion that if persons fall in every thing else, if they are fit for nothing else, they can at least write.
