A GKAY-HKADKI) AMI decrepit pris­ oner arrived here from the West Thurs­ day niffbt In charge of Detective R. A. Kincaae, of Olney, 111., and J. Stone, ex-Sheriff of Putnam County, Ind. The tild man was lodged in our City Jail, and last evening he resumed his jour­ ney toward PerryviJle, Boyle County, Ky., where he is wanted to answer the hideous charge of having murdered an old and helpless lady in cold blood on the night of the 12th of April, twelve long years ago. The record «f those twelve years shows that, if John Tay­ lor's crime was a terrible one, his pun­ ishment is almost commensurate$viJ;h it. Aged and friendless, he has from day to day lived the life of an outlaw--a hunted thin? who' lauti* bo home; aad whose sleepless, inftaorable jconac ienoe kept alive within him a terror of retri­ bution which barred for all time any feeling of security. In his travels and his sufferings his wife was a patient sharer, untu, two months ago, her sys­ tem yielded to the stress of mental anx­ iety and physical abuses, and she died w^ere her husband was finally cap- tuned. And so k must be a very gi%at relief to Jofeti, Taylor to know that his ether, the tincture of iodine will show tlW'pPMBnue of starch In that part of the grain, associated with the gluten. By these means we may easily cause any of our cereal grains to represent to us the extent and precise limits of its phosphates, Iron, dextrine, starch and oil; and thus, by the eye alone, we may form _ an approximate estimate of the relative proportions of these ingredi­ ents. Among other curious results of some experiments made by Dr. Jackson is the proof that the relative proportions of the phosphates in grain depend on the appropriating power of each spe­ cies or variety; for, an ear of corn hav- been selected which had on it two different kinds, namely, the Tuscarora and a variety of sweet corn, and these having bees spHt «*nd issinersed iu the same hopper solution, soon gave evidence that there was more than double the amount of phosphates in the sweet than there was in the Tuscarora variety. Now, since the kernels came from the same ear, and grew side by side, they obtained unequal amounts of phosphates from the same sap, derived Irom the same soil. A crop of sweet corn will take twina m mnck of the phosphates as the other variety, and USEFUL AND SUG6ESTIY1S. agony of suspense is over, and that the j consequently will sooner exhaust the pursuers whom, sleeping or waking, he ! soil of them. never failed to fear, have fastened feh^ir ' clutches upda.hin(i. fid goes ibackto I'errvville," probably to expiate Mffctifhe with his life. Stealing some goods, and^ on£ principal witnesses to be feared of th in hi e is case was Mrs. Mary Bolton, a widow, who lived in a farm-house with ®o other compani'Ki than a little granddaughter. On the tnorning of the 13th of April, that year, the old lady was found dead in her bed with a bullet hole in her head and the bed clothes drenched with blood. At first the horror promised to remain a mystery, till the little grand­ daughter, whom fright for a loaag time rendered mute, made a shocking reve­ lation. She said that she awoke aboht twelve o'clock tlie night before and saw two men in the room whem she readily recognized as John Taylor and his son William. She knew it meant mischief^ and she quietly covered herself <up with the bed clothes, childlike. She heard the rifle shot that killed her grand­ mother, but was paralyzed, and so gave no sign. The men did not discover ner, and so left a witness to their crime whose testimony was to prove fatal. At once the father and son were placed under arrest to be held for trial. The citizens, however, who had held the old lady in high regard, determined to brook no law's delay, and the prisoners were forcibly taken from the officers, carried to the woods and hung to a tree. The crowd remained only long enough to complete their work, as they supposed. By some agency--possibly through a defect in the rope--the old man was allowed to fall to the ground shortly grour after the crowd left, ana there he lay for several hours. He finally recovered the use- of his limbs, but not of his mind, and went off wandering. He was, of course, recaptured, as he had not the wit to make effort to avoid it, and this time he was committed to jail. There he regained his strength/ and two or three months later he, with a colored hog-thief, known as Rev. J. Holman, broke jail. He made for Illi­ nois and found safety in the swamps o£ Egypt for nearly a year. Thence he went to Cooper County, M9., thfmce to Kansas, thence back to Southwest Mis­ souri, thence to Burbane County, Kan., thence to Vernon County, Mo., frhfere he made his final settlement, near the Town of Nevada, Vernon County. At each of the above places he spent a year or two, leading the wretched life of a squatter, but at the last place he met with some success in tilling a patch of ground. A couple of ninths agpj9omething brought the "case to th^ attention of Detective Kincade, and by much perse­ verance and exercise of ingenuity het traced the fugitive througn the long course above detailed. Having finally located him in Vernon County he went there with Mr. Stone, 'armed ""itii a, requisition- .S&ivUr William McUinnis, of that county, who had given valuable assistance in the case previously, went with them to the farm, Where they found Taylor hoeing in his potato patch. He was captured without trouble a'ud he has nothing to say.

A* IMady Xeuis of ^Htimating;the Val­ uable Constituents ef Cereals, Etc. BY mean# o£ a very ingeniqufi meth­ od, first-discovered by Mr. A. A. Hayes, of Roxbury, and Dr. Chas. T. Jackson, of Boston, it will be found that if a kernel of corn be split longitudinally, and immersed in an aqueous solution of su'piate of copper, the germ, or 44 chit, 1 only, becomes colored green, thereby beautifully defining the limits of the phosphates by the formation of phosphate of copper. The same pro­ cess may be applied - to all seeds (ex­ cept those of an oily nature), tubers, roots.and stems of vegetables for de­ fining the parts containing phosphoric acid. If a 'kernel of torn be split open, as before described, and thrown into a so­ lution of sulph-hydrate of ammonia, the 44 chit" will soon be changed to a dark olive color, which is doe ;to a change of the salts of iron in the seed to a sulphliret of that metal; a dark colored matter forming With the * am­ monia turns the vegetable coloring matter yellow, and the t*vo colpr^ com­ bined produce an olive. Again, by taking split specimens of corn, or other grains, and soaking them in a tincture of iodine, the limits of the starch and dextrine will be distinctly defiryijj--the iodine striking an intense blue with the starch, and a deep port wine red with the dextrine; so that, from this test, a rich violet (being the combination of the blue and red colors) will indicate the presence of both the starch and the dextrine in the grain. If the oil be ex­ tracted from the transparent horny part of tbe corn by means of alcohol or Some interesting facts were observed, too, |n the variable proportions of phos­ phates in different varieties of the same species of .otl^er grains. The fact that the smaller grairts, such as wheat, oats and barley, contain so much less tnan Indian corn, would seem to explain their peculiar properties as food for animals; the more highly phosphatic grain being more likely to surcharge the system of adult animals wit$i tne elements of bopy qiatter, producing concretions of phosphate of lime, like those resulting from gout. Perhaps that stiffness of $he joints and lame­ ness of the feet common in horses fed too freely with corn may be accounted for by this preponderance of the phos­ phates.

Cultivation of Crops. # cultivation of crops Is essential for many reasons. The principal one, however,v fes generally Understood, is for the purpose of killing weeds. This, however, while of great importance, is at the saime time not more essential than that the surface of the soil be kept thoroughly friable And In a well-pulver- ized state. It is this thoroughly friable condition that enables the soil to absorb heat, and retain it with the least loss. It also al­ lows free percolation of water, and if the subsoil be not impervious, this does not render the soil cold. It is evapora­ tion by the surface from inert water below that keeps a soil cold. A soil sodden from constant moisture cannot be warmed by the rays of the sun; in fact, such a soil, if shaded, retains its heat better than when not shaded, for one reason, from the fact that evapora­ tion is neither so constant nor so strong The principal object, therefore, in the cultivation of what are usually de­ nominated hoed crops, is to so keep the soil.stirred as to render it always loose, friable and mellow, that the air heated by the rays of the sun may thoroughly permeate it. In planting, some break­ ing of the roots after the plants have obtained vigor, is not injurious, since this cujt surfaces immediately throw Out additional feeding-roots: nevertheless, this plan of cultivation is one not to be commended, since cultivation should not be at a depth to reach the roots of the crop to any considerable extent. The principal value in cultivation is while yet the plants are young. So far as corn is concerned, a light, sharp har­ row is the best implement until the crop is strong enough so that the plants will bear the cultivator. Many persons will not use the harrow, fo^fear of tearing out the corn. H the soil is dry enough to work, and not more than ordinarily ull of trash, little or no damage will done, but tlie whole gropnd will be stirred and the weeds, just appearing above-ground, will be eradicated, so that the crop may easily be thereafter kept ahead of the weeds. In the cultivation of garden crops, or all that class of plnnts of very delicate growth while youngs the cultivation mhst of necessity be light next the plants. To attain this, an implement must be used that will not cast earth, but simply move it. In this we have been most successful with an imple­ ment, with a thin cutting edge running vertically next to the plants, and the foot or horizontal side of which simply scarifies the soil; that is, lifts a slice and drops it immediately behind, in a more or less pulverized state. A num­ ber of hand implements are now made that do this nicely, and which with -care may be run within an eighth of an inch of the plants. Later, we have adopted the plan of using small plows, very, long1 in the point and land side, to throw the earth toward the middle of the row. As it passes from between the plows, a winged narrow ' shovel catches the earth and spreads it smoothly back. In this way, a crop, where the rows are straight and of uniform width, onCwith the other, may be oaltivated in the moist perfect man­ ner, and a root crop may be attained at a cost that will Surprise those, who have worked tinder the hoe and hand weeding system.--Prairie Farmer. --The other day an old woman lay radl 1 he ington, Me., and upon her person was found silver, gold, nickel and copper coins, and a note for $100, all amount­ ing to $400.

' The idea is somewhat prevalent even among farmers, that the products of the garden require a soil different from that of thS farm. This is a delusion; any soil that will grow good crops of corn, hay, wheat or potatoes, will grow good crops of almost any variety of fruit or vegetables, only, of course, the higher the cultivation in either case, the more satisfactory will be the crop. What the extent of a farmer's garden should be, must be decided by his wants or means of culture, though it may be laid down, as a general rule, that one-fourth of an acre, or a space 100 by 100 feet, would be ample for the requirements of an or­ dinary sized family. For convenience, the ^itchen garden should be near the dwelling, ana u ap­ pearances enter anything into consid­ eration, it would be better placed at the I'^ar ilian the -front of tne house. When there is room to use the plow and harrow hi preparing the ground for the garden crbp, these will always do the work more thoroughly than the spade. Even in preparing the ground for our most delicate flowering plants we always use the plows in prefer­ ence to the spade when it is practicable to do so. Independent of the pleasure that the farmer may derive from his garden of fruits or flowers, there is no doubt that in many cases it leads to a business far more profitable than his crops of the farm, in our growing'country. Towns and villages spring into existence where a decade before was only an un­ peopled waste, and the shop-keeper, mechanic or artisan is glad to buy the surplus the farmer may have from his overflowing garden. This I know to be the fact m scores of instances where the business of nurserymen, market gardener or florist, was, as it were, forced upon the farmer by his village neighbors desiring to buy the products of his garden. Here is "a case sonie- what in point:- the original proprietor of one of the largest seed housesjja the City of New Yors emigrated from Scot­ land some time about the beginning of the present century; he was a nailer by trade and was entirely ignorant of any­ thing pertaining to seeds or gardening, but one day coming through ,tthe Bowery, then half tarm, half city,, he saw a rose bush in a cottage window. It was a rose in the'" wilderness, for p/obably there were not a score more in the then City of New York--he went in and bought it for fifty cents, took it home, painted the pot green, and, placing it in the window of his jiail shop, quickly sold it for a doiiar. This was easier work and better pay than nail-making, so he started out daily buying plants of all kinds, always paint­ ing the pots green--(a practice by the way that modern science would frown at)--and doubling his monejr rapidly. From plants the transition to dealing in seeds was natural and easy, so that in less than twenty years from the time this humble Scotch nail-maker had purchased his first rose bush in the Bowery, Ms seed house had become thr largest on this continent.--f&er Mm- derson. Hugh Latimer's Boldness. FROM his first entrance into the min­ istry, Latimer was esteemed a pestilent fellow--they called him a 44 seditious fellow"--by unjust persons in author­ ity; and to such men he was ever, in­ deed, highly troublesome. At this early penod his preaching was so ef­ fective that it was even then said of it, 44 None except the stiff-necked and utreircutncved ever went away fronrit without being affected with high detes­ tation of an, fend moved to all godli­ ness ami vfrtuC§" * <i * Att iiuslttuue is related of nls early {riainness of speech which is interest-r.g as an illustration of his fearless in­ dependence, and also because it attract­ ed the attention of Cardinal Wolsey to him, and directly led to his future ad­ vancement.

The Bishop in-' dignantly complained to Wolsey, who sent for Latimer and inquired what he had said. Latimer frankly repeated the substance of his sermon^ whereup­ on other conversation followed, which showed Wolsey very clearly the nature of the man with wnom he was speak­ ing; and, instead of responding to the Bishop's accusation by silencing the audacious preacher, he gave him a li­ cense to preach in any church in En­ gland, coupling it with the remark: 44 If the Bishop of Ely cannot abide such doctrine as you have repeated, you shall preach It to his beard, let him say what he will."--Charles D. Deshler, in Harper's Magazine for *tune. • TIM Af« of Prolonging LUk. People generally desire long life and good health. Sickness and premature death arc al­ most always due to violations of the laws that, govern our physical being, and of which the masses are Ignorant If men knew better they would do better; but how can they avoid an evil that they know not of! While efforts are made through the public shools to give each child a so-called common English educa­ tion, yet the children are permitted to grow up and enter upon the responsible duties of active life, protuundiy ignorant of the struc­ ture of their own bodies, and the laws of phy­ sical being upon which their"health and lives depend. They are sent to school and crammed with arithmetic-, grammar, and geography, by teachers who, iu many instances, have never studied physiology and hygiene. They are taught to locate the mountains and trace the rivers of foreign countries, but are never taught to locate the vital organs and glands of their own bodies, or trace the veins, arteries, and nerves, in their various ramifications. They are instructed in the flow of the tides, and the course of the ocean currents, and the philosophy of winds and storms; but th«\y have no correct conception o! the relative ef­ fects upon their health of breathing pure or impure air, nor has their attention ever been called to the importance of keeping their bodies clean and healthy by regular bathing. The criminality of such neglect in teaching becomes apparent when we consider that the masses, ignorantly violating the laws of health, bring upon themselves sickness, suffer­ ing and death, that might otherwise be avoid­ ed. In this condition of things we welcome into being any work that is calculated to im­ part to the musses a knowledge of the struc­ ture of their own bodies, the laws of health, and the importance of observing those laws. Wo find Dr. Pierce's Common Sense Medical Adviser to be Just such a work. It ie physio­ logical and pathological, and the major part ot it should be converted into a text-book for the use of common schools. Its careful study will enable the healthy to preserve their health, and the sickly to regain health. Every parent should read it, and as their children become of proper age instruct them in the all-important truths it contains. Were this done, much suffering and premature death would be pre­ vented, and many a youth saved from a-life of shame and licentiousness.
