Very few of them, exhibit any traces of architeotural beauty; in fuct, the dwelling-houses generally suggest poverty and dirt. e The lges Casc Washington Special Telegram, At the request of the President re- tary Lincola sent to Adjutant-General Dram for the proceedings in thoe case of Licut. Col. Guido 1 , Eighteenth In- fantry, and receivcd the papers this morning, Secretary Lincoln had an in- terview with President Arthur, and was asked, as he was leaving the department, as to the present status of the caso, He said: 1 have the papers in the case and will examine them carefully, as I do all cases requiring the President’s action. 1 will not be ready to submit the case to the President, at the cabinet meeting, but will some time this week. A legal question is raised with rofer- ence to the Ilges court-martial, which is thought in some quarters to be fatal to the verdict, Two a} the members of the court, having been on the previous trial, were objected te by Col. Ilges, and in such cases it has been the invariable cus- tom for the officers thus challenged to cither state that they had no prejudice against the defendant, or to be excused by their own request from service. In this case one of the efficers asked to be excused, but h's request was not granted as usual by the court, and the other said nothing, thereby inferentially admitting he did entertain prejudice against the defendant. It is regarded by good mil- itary lawyers as being an objection of a character which would digqualify a juror, and thus vitiate the verdict; on this ac- count it would not cause surprise if the sentence of the court, which, it isun derstood, was dismissal from the army, would be set aside. s h Bell Nuisance, Thus growls on w Yorl “This is a remnant of the feudal system which existed in this city forty years ago. Then the church bells served some purpose, as they rang for fires. But uow that neces sity is passed. People tell me that the bells are necessary to call Christians to | worship. If that were true—but i’ is not. | The theaters, concerts, balls, circuses and schoals do not require such means of col 0 rons. And thus only eight ches in the city, I am inferm | ed, continue the ancient custom of ring. ing the bells, and these are to be stop. ped.” Thus says another New Yorker The Chu —— 1 live right under the © |in all holfry of yonder church, and I love to hear the bell as it rings three times on each Sabbath day 1 hope to hear it and the bellsof churches f all denominations on the last Sabbath f my life.

They may wintered in a barrel or resorvoir placed in the cellar. The ve: which contains the water should have several inches of mud in the bottom. The fall is also an excellont time in which to construct fish-ponds. ~ The ponds will be filled with water during the late rains, If the water of a small spring can be led into a pond it may be kept sutticiently full even during the drought of summer. An artificial pond is less likely to be infested with creatures that will devour or injure the young fish than a natural body of water, ~ The principal enemies of carp are turtles, water snakes, minks, musk-rats, frogs and water fowl. The fish commissioner of lTowa makes the following suggestions respecting the construction of ponds: For a still-water wintering the pond, the deeper a portion of it is the better. If there be plenty of mud in the bottom of the ponds in which the carp bury itself during its period of hybernation, or winter sleep, a depth of five feet might answer and bring them safety. ‘But a greater depth would please me much better. If spring water can bo i steadily into the ponds during the winter the depth is of much less conse quence. In draining ponds great care should be taken to have it done slowly, so that the fish may not be too much frightened to gather in the deeper por- tions. They are quite likely to bury themaselves in the mud of any part of the bottom when they take a sudden alarm, and might be left there to smother and aie. The location and torm of ponds should be such as to add to the beauty of the surroundings and to the convenience and pleasure of the owners. _They may bo needed to supply ice, or if stock be kept they may bo useful as a reservoir to supply water. Of courso these points are to be settled by those who plan them, and their great importance should not be overlooked. Carp can be kept and fed, and made to grow rapidly in reser- voirs, tanks, small ponds, or other small bodies of water during the summer that would not ke safe from freezing during winter. And they are often so kept in the old countries. Stock fishfor suchapurpose would have to be procured annually from some carp-breeder. Mr. L. Jones, of Russell, Towa, con- tributes to The Homestead the following I have had a little experience with Ger- man carp that might be interesting to some of your reade 1t is as follows: On the 15th day of last April I placed in a small pond, 18 feet in diameter and 1 foot deep, three German carp five inches long that had been wintered n the house, and were consequently in very poor con- dition. The 24th day of August I drew off'the water to see my little fish, and found they were twelve inches in length, and would weigh from a pound to a pound and a half. Their principal food during the time they were in the pond was sheaf oats. On the last day of April, 1883, 1 procured from the United States fish commissioner twenty small German leather carp, varying from an_inch and a half to two inches and a half in length, Theso were placed in a pond of about one-fourth of an acro in extent and eight feet deep. They are as large now, if not larger, than those in the smaller pond. Think of it? A growth of ten inches in loss than three months on a scant diet of sheaf oats. 1 have now commenced feeding them regularly on scraps from the table, such as cold potatoes, boiled corn, baked beans, cte. When the scraps are thrown into the water the fish Vig{\L or thom like pigs. They will have two months yet to grow before winter, when they will push themsclves wmong the ferns on the bottom of the pond, and lie dormant until spring. I beliove in ten years every farmer will have his carp- pond to raise fish for his own table. ez : Saly A for Cuts, t Rheum, Heunry's The best salve used in the we Bruises, Piles, Sores, Ulcers, Tettor, Chapped Hands, Chilblainy, Corns, and all kinds of Skin Eraptions, Frockles and Pimples.
