It is of great impertame that borsea shall be at all sesame kept Foper state for the work they ha .do. If we are to judge by the ap sace of a large proportion of the ar's horses which we meet in planes, it would mem th$,. neit style nor condition are theysteited fo work of the farmer, provided it is as it elehald be. Light,; sham nags, are not exaotly the kind to up a good broadsheulder furrow to soden of the winter's froht, nor hornet appearance a proof that warners take much pride in th they are turned out for the road.

Although the day* are restively short during *inter, ye work which falls to be performed the limes of the farm, is by no m sf a light description, and as the lengthen out, the work, as a matte course, becomes heavier. because it knger continuance. It is eaten therefore, that the horses be kept condition rather over than oder t work; and we must bear in miclnad once horses have been "let down" eondition, it is difftoult te, being t lap to the mask again. In the matter of feeding, we have ways recommended "little and ofte that is es often as the arramagemen the work would allow, and we h done so, beoause we consider it hig dangerous to allow a horse to eat al ginantity of grain greedily, which will certainly do if kept long at without feeding.

Thoreau, the Concord philosopher, was a thoroughly consistent truest, and practised what he preached. All his e he had been finding fault with peo- ple because they did not live more simply; because they were worried all thestime about how they should get mummy enough to live with, while realty they did not need one half that they spent. Toward the end of March he borrowed an axe and went dowz to the shores of Wadden Pond, which, i about a utile and a half from Conco d Vil-, lage. He began by cutting down some tall white pines for timber, arid in this way made whole clearing in theiwoods. 'With his axe alone he out out isquare timbers fer4 hut, and put the l frame together ; he then bought a shanty be- longing to an Irisheap,n who worked on thsrailroad near by, and with his own hands tore down the little house i which be had bought, and in a wheelbarrow carried the boards to his -clearing. In this way he- worked on pretty deliber- ately, doing nearlyall the work him- self, and by the fourth of Julyhis little house was ready for occupancy.! And what 'Thoreau was proudest of was the *est of this snug house of his; the whole establishment cost his him just twenty-eight dollars and twelve and a ball cents. I think we inust s.11Ow that was not a very high price for a dwelling which was to serve as his home through summer! and winter. And now Thoreau thought that he would earn a little money—just :a lit- tle, for he needed only ten or twelve dollars—to meet his future expenses. Se he decided that the simplest way to do this was by farming. Thorean's farming, however, was of a sort to make most of our well-to-do farmers smile. He planted a little wore than two acres of land near his but with beans, doing all the work of breaking ground, and the rest, with a hoe. But even in the work over the beans, which to other men might have been dull, he was bound, to enjoy life. His mind was full of pretty fancies as he trudged up and down between the rows of beans, and for company he awed to talk to the birds which sat and sang on the boughs of an apple tree sear by. Sometimes, when his garden did not need his care, he would have wbat he called a house °kilning. Nat- urally there was not muchharniture in his little house, and he would take alI that there was out of doors and set it under the trees; he thought that his table -and chairs always seemed brighter and more comfortable after taking a little recess out in the sunshine. After he had thoroughly cleared out hie louse, a pail full of white sand from the pond shore and another of water were put to good service, and the one tiny room, which was at the same time kis parlor, kitchen, and bedroom, was washed from Ceiling to floor, and then while the boards were drying, he would lie on his back under the trees and wonder if there was another man in the world quite as independent and as happy as he. Whole days he wonl.d spend in the woods, tramping through marshes and over hills, hunting up rare plants and making new acquaint- ances among the birds and animals; or else he would sit in the sunshine the morning through in front '61 his little hut drming. But it was not an idle or usel dreaining with him, for he was storing up the thoughts with whioh he has filled -his books. At such times he used to sit so still that birds would come and light on his shoulders and squirrels would- run across his lap. In- deed Thoreau always had a wonderful power of attracting animal& The squirrels and birds after a while got so well acquainted that they came quite regularly into his house, for door and windows always stood temptingly open, and used to eat from his hand. In the winter even the little wood, rabbits came to get their meals, which he scat- tered every day in the snow before the door. But it was easy enough, you will say, for him to live in the woods duriiag the summer; a great many people oamp out for weeks at a time. Well, even a New England winter did not scare Thoreau from his Walden home. He built a ohimneY for his hut, out a generous !supply of wood for fuel, and bravely faoed the cold and snow in his well beloved woods. Now and then he would go down to the village and gossip with the loafers around' the post office, for Thoreau always found some- thing interesting in those whom most of us call dull; but even in winter his favorite occupation was tramping through the woods—careless of drifts and cold. And wonderful sights he used to see wider the bright winter sunshine. Most people know very little about the country in winter, but one can hardly read Thoreau's description of the trees loaded with amnia of the tiny rfalls• of the brooks frozen into icicles, and of the cheery winter sounds ringing in the frosty air, without wish- ing that he had himself the courage to explore in the ;face of wind and cold as Thoreati did. -And then at night in front of a roaring fire he would read, or gaze at the pictures made by the blazing logs, quite careless whether the rest of the world renaembeied him or not. . For two years h.- lived thus in Wal- den woods,. and then went back to live again with his friends. I do not think it is fair to say that he grew tired of his lonely life, or that it was at all a failure ; for he tried his experiment, succeeded in living happily with very little money i and then when he thought that he could do his worlebetter in, the old way he went back to his home. ! Thoreau lived for some years after his Walden life, but never travelled much out of New England. He thought that "the Amen who is not happy where he is will never be happy auywhere," and a trip to one of the Maine woods was as long a journey as he ever cared to make. Perhaps there is no better lesson for us to learn from his life, which with all its strange freaks was beautifully pure and, honest, than this : that if we are not happy the fault is not in our surroundings', but in our- selves. There are plenty of chances to see wonders in every walk we take if we only keep our eyes wide open, as Thoreau did. • Musical Oritics. The special power of the "Hallelu- jah Chorus" in raising . the hearer's, thoughts above this material world I have heard • curiously exemplified in the case of a listener who was hearing the "Messiah" for the first time. She was apparently the wife of a trades- man, and her conversation about music before the oratorio began had interest- ed me considerably, After the "Halle- lujah Chorus" was finished and it had been remarkably well sung—I turned rouud to my friend, partly out of ouri• oeity, to see what impression it had made. She immediately said to me, with a kind of awe : "Ah, sir 1 what will this be in another world !" One item of the programme at a concert was "Angels Ever Bright and Fair," which was sung with a purity of style aud a depth of feeling not yet forgotten by some who heard it. When the singer had fiuished, I overheard one of the choir boys whisper to his neighbor: "I say, Tom, I like that better than buttered beaus l" The full meaning of this ceitioiene we can only appraise by comparing it with the utterance of an alderman, who should say that be pre ferred a symphony of Beethoven to a Mansion "tense, dinner.

There were tautly evidences to warrant such a lief, for a second ant immedia appeared upon the scene, erne huriedly from a neighboring thioke pine tree moss. He was too late, h ever, for the hornet again sought esu in flight. . But this attempt was e more futile than the former, for t plucky little assailant -had now hold of another impediment, and time -not only the long pine needles, a small bra,nched stick also, w through the air. Only a yard or was covered in this flight; and as ant still yelled for re-inforoements, companion again appeared, and rus upon the common foe with such furl zeal that I felt like patting him on back. The whole 'significance of scene he had taken in at a, glance, an an instant he had taken a vise like g upon the other hind leg. Now came final tug of war. The hornet tried rise, but this second passenger was much for him ; he eould . only b along the ground, dragging his 1 after him ; while his assailant clutch desperately at everything within reach, now a dried leaf, now a t stone, and even overturning an afro cup in its grasp. Finally, a sin rough stick:the size. of it match w seoured, and this proved the "1 straw." In vain were the struggleti escape. The hornet could do no in than lift his body from the groan He rolled and kicked and tumbled, b to no purpose, except to make it ve lively for his captors; and the thru of that lively dagger were wasted the desert air, for whether or not tho ants knew its searching propensiti they cerainly managed to keep clear this brie extremity. Howl ng this pell-mell battle won have las ed I know not, for a third a now ii,pp ared, and it was astouishi to see hi ;, with every movement the horn t, he in turn wonld lay ho of a thir stick, and at the same tim clutch u n the pine needles to ad their im ediment to the burden of h own bod Practi ally the ants had won t victory, ut what they intended to with the floundering elephant in the hands se med a problem.

Considering these characteristicant was of especial in- terest to witness such an incident as I have here pictured, where one of those hue tyrants was actually captured and overpowered by the strategy of three black ants. I had left the meadow, and was as- cending a spur of the mountain by the edge of a pine wood, when suddenly I espied the hornet in question almost at my feet. He immediately took to wing, and as he flew on ahead of me I observed a long pendent object dang- ling from hie body. The incumbrance proved too great an ebstacle for con- tinuous flight, and he soon dropped again upon the path, a rod or so in d vance of zeie. I overtook him, and on a close inspection discovered- a plucky black ant clutching tightly with his teeth upon the hind foot of its captive, while with its own two hind legs clung desperately to a long ()lustre of pine needles which it carried as a dead weight.
