A Conscientious Dog. —I had had this 
dog for several years and had never, even in 
his puppyhood, known him to steal. Never¬ 
theless, on one occasion he was very hungry, 
and in the room where I was reading and 
he was sitting there was within easy reach 
a savory mutton chop. I was, greatly sur¬ 
prised to see him stealthily remove this chop 
and take it under the sofa. However, I 
pretended not to observe what had occurred, 
and waited to see what would happen next. 
For fully a quarter of an hour this terrier 
remained under the sofa without making a 
sound, hut doubtless enduring an agony of 
contending feelings. Eventually, however, 
conscience came off victorious, for, emerg¬ 
ing from his place of concealment, and 
carrying in his mouth the stolen chop, he 
came across the Toom and laid the tempting 
morsel at my feet. The moment he drop¬ 
ped ihe stolen properly he boiled again 
under the sofa, anrl from this retreat no 
coaxing could charm him for several hours 
afterward. Moreover, when during that 
time he wa9 spoken to, or patted, he always 
turned away his head in a ludicrously con¬ 
science-stricken manner. Altogether I do 
not think it would be possible to imagine a 
more satisfactory exhibition of conscience 
by an animal tban this; for it must be re¬ 
membered, as already slated, that Ihe parti¬ 
cular animal in queslion was never beaten 
in his life .—Quarterly Journal of Science. 
•Salmon Canning in Oregon.— The Ore¬ 
gon canneries commenced operations much 
earlier this year than last, and new establish¬ 
ments have been opened. The prospects 
opened fair for a handsome increase on the 
business of last year, extensive as was the 
trade in that year. Already some lots have 
been forwarded by steamer and railroad, 
and other lots are in process of shipment. 
The large number cf wheat vessels to go 
forward this year will afford abundant fa¬ 
cilities for shipments to England, while 
there will also probably be larger exports 
direct from the Columbia River, one vessel 
having been already engaged to load a full 
cargo. A peculiarity ot the business this 
year will be some consignments of whole 
flih, just as they come from the hands of 
the cleaner, caus having been successfully 
prepared for that purpose. When prepared 
for the table, these fish will present an ap¬ 
petizing appearance. 
—Some of the newspapers are astonished 
at a horse’s pulling the plug out of the 
bungbole of a ban el for the purpose of 
slaking his thirst. It’s extraordinary. Now, 
if the horse had pulled the barrel out of 
the bungbole and slaked his thirst with 
the ping, or if the barrel had pulled the 
bunghole out of the horse and slaked its 
thirst with the plug, or if the barrel had 
pulled the bunghole out of the plug and 
slaked its thirst with the horse, or if the 
plug had pulled the horse out of the barrel 
and slaked its thirst with the bunghole, or 
if the bunghole had pulled the thirst out of 
the horse and slaked the plug with the bar¬ 
rel, or if the barrel hud pulled the horse out 
of the bunghole and plugged its thirst with 
the slake, it might be worth while to make 
a fuss about it. 
—An orango tree at Fort Harley, on the 
Santa Fee River, produced last year 8,000 
oranges. It is over three feet in diameter, 
and oasts a shadow measuring thirty-two 
and a half feet. 
—Watermolons come by mail all the way 
from Florida to New York with only one 
trausfer. 
—The second crop of Florida oranges is

Having smoked your tobacco. Vanity Fair, by the

fjagrance and taste superior to all brands known to

the same manner as with the ordinary oars. The oarsman faces the direction in which he goes, and rows faster 
and more easily than with any other oar. The stroke is longer tlmn with ordinary oars. The oars can be closed 
ud out of the way without detaching them from ihe gunwale. The boatman makes no more effort in steering 
than in directing his coarse while walking These oars can be attached to and detached from the boat very 
quickly, and they can be closed up in a convenient form for carrying. Can be attached to any boat, and Is es- 
penially adapted‘to hauling, fishing, and all kinds of pleasure boating. Addrees, daring Centennial, '•Jluntor’a
