It is as follows: .If any. person shall car nally know any female child under the age of eighteen years, or shall forcibly ravish any woman of the age of 16 years or upwards such person shall be . deemed guilty of rape, aud upon conviction thereof shall he punished, by iitprisonmeiit in the penitentiary fur not lest than three nor mure than twenty years.7 Orders have! been issued from the -Adjutant-General s office at Sacramento announcing that Cap tain S. P. Blumebberb (retired) of San Francisco, formerly com mander of the East Troop Cavalry has been found guilty by a general court-martial of signing a false cer tificate concerning the pay-roll of persons purporting to have been on duty at Oakland during the strike. Blumenberg's sentence is dismissal from the State service. Governor Budd has approved the sentence. Thksz are days nf reform. The governor, it tt raid, tan not live on the salary which the constitution allows him. Well, he ought to have thought about that last May, and if it is too much of a burden he . should not have assume, it. We do not hear any complaint that the secretary of state does not get pay for all be does, and out.of his $15- 000 he might well devide with the governor, inasmuch as the gover nor has to. 'help him to get this fortune. A. public officer uugl.t to have isasonable compensation for his services, but it ought to stop at that. Ex. Gen. Lew Wallace proposes to find out why be was not compelled to pay duty at the Detroit custom house on a' copy of "Ben Hur" which he bought on a tr.iin in Canada while on his wav to De troit the other day. Among a pile of books which the train boy threw down beside him he found a paper covered volume of his own work, which the 'boy offered him for twenty-five cents. As the book can cot be purchased in this country for less than f 1.50, owing to the copy light, the general was somewhat disturbed in his mind, and this feel ing appears to be justified, if it is really true, as he says, that he hue only received fifteen cents from foreigu publishers on a book that has been translated into several lanjuapta. It is said that Senator McBride has expressed himself as in favor of general measures of vital inter est to Oregon and the Northwest. First and foremost, of the most im portance to the development of the Pacific coast, is the Nicaragua canal; next he favors a cable to the Hawaiian islands and the annexa tion of the islands at the earliest day. He is especially interested In the claims of the Indian war veterans for 1109,000, as shown in his reports and for a pension act in their behalf; and the claim of the state of Oregon, for its share of public land sales of 13315,000, Which was fully proved up by Mr. McBride, as secretary of state.

An Expeditious Method of Fatten ing Fowls for Market. 4 French VroKtm br Which Chlckn and Backs Am SiMdU7 BroaKM to a BUra Stat or Porlwtloa for 1 Taste. There to a poultry-raialni? establish ment in Baltimore county at which all the modern appliances for hatching and rearing chickens are in practical operation, says the Baltimore Sun, and where the i'stufihur" process of feeding; known for many years in Fronue gnujaement, is used in fattening both chickens and ducks for the market About five thousand chickens and as many ducks are annually fattened by this process at this place. Tho owner of this establishment is an American who has spent many years of his life abroad, especially in France, and he has made a thorough study of the meth ods followed in the land where gastron .omy has been reduced to a science and where the inner man is more assidu ni.ily considered than anything else in the world. And it is because years of experimenting in France have proved that poultry fed by .the process de 1'en graissement are more toothsome and less expensive to the grower than poul try fattened by the ordinary processes of nature that he has established this place in Baltimore county upon an al most French basis. Incubators are now by no means the curiosities they were a few years ago, when the public paid an admission fee for the privilege of seeing one in operation. Many farmers have improved upon the old time more or lesB careless methods of raising chicks or ducklings, but there is no other place in. Mnryland where tne "stuffing" process U in vogue withall its modem, humane and economical ap pliances. The process is based upon the simple principle that a fowl will grow fat most rapidly when it is given the maximum of food and allowed the min imum of exercise. Fowls fed by "l'en graisscment" are not only given all the food they can eat but all they can hold, and they are not given any exercise. When the work of feeding fowls in this manner 1b being put in practice which is not the case at this season of the year the interior of the feeding house is an interesting place. It looks like a large prison on a small scale, with tier upon tier of tiny eells reach ing from the floor to the ceiling. In cacr- of these cells is a bird being pre pared for market Its quarters are rather confining, for it hasn't room to turn around in and scarcely room to rise to its feet Running along in front of these cages, which fit their occu pants as if they had been made to order, is a trolley track, high up near the ceil ing, and from this is suspended the feeding apparatus proper. It may, by means of weights, be put at any height, and may be moved along the trolley rock from one end of the building to the other, thus enabling the feeder to put his machine in front of any cell he may wish. . The feed, in the form of soft mush, is put in a reservoir holding a gallon or more. From the bottom of the reser voir the food runs through a rubber tube into another receptacle, the ca pacity of which is regulated by a surew, according to the extent of tho meal to be given to the fowls at that special feeding. From the second receptacle protrudes a tin tube about four inches long and as thick as a lead pencil, and this tube is thrust down the fowl's throat and into the craw. This done the pressure of a lever emptie3 the con tents of the receptacle into the fowl and it settles down to rest, digest and grow fat until meal time comes again The fowls do not take kindly to this method of feeding at first, but niter a dsy or two.of it they seem to relish its novelty and luxury, and begin to crow I and cackle in anticipation as soon as the feeding apparatus is brought into use. L'engraissement has been practiced in France for many years. Before the improved appliances were invented tiie operation was carried on in several ways. One of these, called cngraisse ment aux patons, consisted of insert ing little cakes of dough into the fowl's mouth, and forcing them down with the finger. In another case, engraissement dlentonnair, the food, in liquid form, was poured into the bird through a funnel. A third meth od, still more primitive, called gavagc a la bouche, consisted in the feeder's filling his mouth with the food and blowing it down the fowl's throat As soon after the hatching as they are able to determine, the sexes are sep arated, and when they are three and one-half months old they ere pot in the "pens of plenty." Fowls thus treated have been known to double in weight during their confinement in the pens. Their meat is far tenderer and sweeter than that of fowls raised in the mdi liar f manner;, and is devoid of all ob jectionable stringiness. They arc, the owner of the Baltimore county estub- luiiment avers, more suitable for table purposes than capons, and do not have U be fed and cared for more than a quarter of the time that capons re quire. : Biiig. Cat from Diamonds. Everybody knows how difficult it is even for an expert lapidariou to cut diamonds, not only on account of their hardness, but by reason of their struc ture and veins, which must ho vi ll do nned before the cutter bcf'ha hiu work. M. Antolne, one of the best known jewelers of Antwerp, lira, niter many fruitless attempts and three years of arduous, patient toil, at hint succeeded in cuttinrj a whole iin,r out of a block of diamond. The ring in perfectly round, with a diameter of nineteen milliters (about thrcc-quur-tere of an inch), It was cxliibii-d for some timo in Antwerp, and wee very auch admired.

Mr, Bitter and family have returned to Waterloo and Andy has the sun- grins again. Those who wish to know when the mill will start will be pleased to know that It will start March 15, or sunie other date. The scenery from the head of the ditch is being viewed by many just at this writing, indeed the spot attracts nut a few who revel in the delights of the lovoly spot. We are pleased to note that Hweet Home's star bull catcher has been knocked out as it will give the Waterloo Lonesome Nine a chance to b.-tit them this season.
