Fisa Poxps.—Thousands of farmers throughout the country could have thesedelightful and useful littlesheets of water with a very little -expense and labor. A well-regulated tish pond on a farm is one of its best fejitures. It“not only supplies:the table with thie ~ choicest of meat, fresh. from its npnt- « ural element, but it is a source of ‘amusement, a ‘point of attraction; which will go further with the boys _ in making them Jove the-farm, thian " any othet feature or all other ficatures combined. Then jt.is a svurce of fer: tility to the soil and health to its owners. - Wherever a natural supply of water can be made 'available; the L -farmer should by all medns take advantage of it, and add an ornament to his land which will- add- greatly to itsvalue. *~ . ::° G - 'COMPOSITION OF BUTTER— A\ ciiem- - icalanalysis of bul}ter shows a varying propertion of olelne and margarine . fats. Summer butter usually contains .. of oleine 60 and of marggrine 40 per cent., while in winter these propor- ~ tions are reversed. By.ordinary treat- . ment, the quality of‘butter in ‘winter . is marked inferior, ’ﬁecause the common materials fed ate deficient in oil, starch, sugar, etc.. If a cow consumes - twenty-eight "pounds of hay per day, it will be equal in, dry material to 100 pounds of young -grass. ' The 100 pounds of grass will yield more butter than the hay. The hay is equal in albuminous matter and oil to the ' grass, but is deficient in starch, sugar, . ete. which accounts for-‘the differ- - _€énce. ; - ' ASHES FOR CATTLE.—The Live Stock Journal has a correspondent ‘who found his cattle given to the habit of eating wood, chewing bones, etc. '%heybecame thin in fleshy refused to eat . hay; and presented a sickly appear- - ance. He had no idea that their food

lacked the constituents for making . bone, and his.neighbors used bone - meal without noticing any good re- . -sults whatever. At last.he put about four bushels of leached ashes ‘tn his barnyard, and threw out to them |~ about a shovelful each day. They all ate it with evident relish. : A fter turn- - ing them out to pasture he 'put a peck of dry dshes per week on the ground ~ in the pasture. They ate it all and . gnawed-off ‘the grass where ‘it had been lying. Theheattle began to im- ~ sprovesmaiging flesh and looking better “““%ﬁ%ml several years. He says this morbid appearance was un- .+ noticed years ago, from the fact that "~ the ground was néw and ashy from the burning of the woods and land . clearings. . Since this discovery he : gives one quart of ashes mixed with a _quart of salt to twelve head of cattlé . about once a week. joa b -, VALUE OoF COVERED MANURE.—AL * various times we lave pointed out to .. our readers the profits- resulting from - ‘covering manure, instead, of allowing . it ‘toget soaked by the rains or dried ' by the sun.

! “EARLY TO RISE.” = A Sensible Argument Against Get- . . ting Up Before Daylizht. - \": : (Dr- Cross in the New York 'l‘ri"b‘nne,) 2 o . Farmers generally do .not rise as early -as they did 20 years ago, and I think they ought not to. Some, however, retain the old habif and are up at 3 and 4 o’clock, have breakfast at lamplight, and then work commences. Now, I know well enough that if there are hired men, and if work pushes, it is necessary to stirearly; but.on the. whole, I think what is known as the habit of early risingis so much an error as to do moré harm than good. I should say that for '‘an oxdinary household, where nobody but the-fam-ily is in the house, Lreakfast at § o’clock is soon enough for winter, and, fremm 6 to 7_o’clock for spring and summer. It" would be a good plan though, if there is one in'the house who likes: to rise ‘early, to build the fires that the rooms may be warmed, though by having good stoves: fires can bept all night. - I object to- breakfast by lamplhight,” because the children are made to. get up when they would be much: better off in.bed’and asleep. It iseruel to tear boys out of bed in the dark and cold, since they always go to bed tired, and growing as they are, they need all the rest and recuperation they can get; and when they doarise, they ought not to be hurried out to the barn, probably in eold, damp boots, to fodder and take careof stock. It is much betterfor the mian himself to go:out and see thiat the work is properly done, though the boys might «go along, if they'are warmed, and help, and get fresh -air before breakfast. . AUER

I doubt, whether anything is gained by feeding cattle before sunrise, and 1 am sure milking.ought not to be done until tlie- morning becomes a little cheerful. ~ The amount of work which boys ean do-in‘a_cold morning is: nots much, and it will seldom be done well. They are in a hurry to get back to the fire, and they ought not to be blamed, but it would be a good plan to have them help about hreakfast, if their help is.needed. " The point T want to male 15, boys are neither, toughnor strong, nor have they got the use of their museles so that they can apply to advantage what Strangth- they do possess. -If school hotrs press, and they are to go, they ought not to-have any time tospare. Whennight comes everything should be made comfortable; have plenty of lamps, and have plenty- of books and.papers. An intelligent father neglects his duty if he does not: heip. the teacher, and vast help can be given by hearing the children read, and in making them read correctly, and in considering various subjects. . .

. é L o> w—— Road Making by Machinery

The trial of road making machines and. implements .competing for the premium of $lOO ‘offered by the Illinois State Board of Agriculture, was finished at Roberts; 111., last week, after a spirited contest between four of’ the six machines entered. These were the Maywood scraper, the Wauchope grader and diteher, the Foreman machines and the Barton machine.. The .Maywood Company with five men, -ten horses, four scrapers and a plow; finished . their’ road, one-fourth of a mile, in nine hours; the Wauchope machine with two men and eight horses; completed the same length of road in nine and one-fourth hours; the Foreman machines ‘with -six to -eight men and twelve horses, finished ~their sask in one and one-half days; and- the Barton machine withdrew at the end ‘of thirteen hours, leaving a fair road, but not .entirely completed. 1t is due, however, to these last two machines to say, that they were not built for making roads of ‘extreme width. The committee, composed-of members of the Illinois - -State Board of Agriculture, awarded the premium to Mr. W. J. Edwaxds, of Chicago, for the Wauchope machine; but it: was admitted that -the. competition be‘tween this machine and the Maywood seraper was exceedingly close. - et ————l] P BEwe—— ", A Mose Fields’ Convention. ° “The grand mass-meeting in Detroit in” favor .of cheap imitation’ money of the “blue-pup and yellow-dog” va‘riety proved to be a wretched failure. It was mainly conspicuous for'the absence of the notables who were to address the crowd; and of the crowd which was to. listen to the notables. The notables didn’t come and the ccrowd stayed away. Ex-Senator Catpenter, of Wisconsin, was announced as one of the big guns, but Mnr. Carpenter fired off his gun before the’ time, and it wasn’t in the direction of. th‘e inflation-target.- Senator Gordon, of Georgia, was also to be present-to illustrate the .inflation tendeney of Lis part of the country, but he did not put in' an. appearance. Even Wen“dell"Phillips hadn’t confidence enough to come. ‘ln fact, the attraction dwindled down to Kelley:and Hooton, .and, instead of thecrowd: of 10,000 which had been confidently expected, there was a spare assemblage.of Bourbons and ‘fanatics who listened to Kelley’s stale twaddle about 2.65 serip, and some* other irresponsible -and reckless utterancés.

INDIANAPOLIS, Aug. 25.-—The following report on the Mclntyre investigation was teached late this aftermnoon. - The Board of Trustees of the Indiana Institution forthe Education of the Deaf and Dumb, having fully ‘considered the chargeés preferred by John E: Fawkner against’ Thomas ‘Mclntyre, are unanimously of the opinion that Thomas Meclntyre is net guilty of the first, second, third, and fourth specifications; and the:Board further find that the charge of conspiracy made agalnst Mclntyire is not true; and the majority also find that the charge of concealing evidence to secure Valentine is untrue. = From this last conclusion Dr. James dissents, holding that Mclntyre did wrongfully conceal such évidence, . The Board having also fully considered the charge against Ezra.G. Valentine, the majority find tkat the charges are untrue and unfounded. From this conclusion Dr. James disgents, believing that the evidence sustains the charges against Valentine. ST

- “Sponging” on Newspapers. '~ 'We copy the following from the Philadelphia Printer's Circular and commend it to the careful perusal of all “spongers:” “Every man thinks a newspaper fair game. If a society or any body of men get up a concert or ball; or other form of entertainment, the object of which is to put money in their pockets, or if the proceeds are to be devoted to charitable purposes to add to their own gloritication, they becgme very indignant if the proprietors of a newspaper do not assist them by a series of gratuitous advertisements a few weeks before the event takes place. These gentlemen should remember that literary men, in this practical age, work for money as well as for fame—principally the former, however; and the business manager of a newspaper, if he wishes to keep on the safe side of the ledger, conducts the charge on the same principle as the head of any business establishment. People who are getting up a bald would feel chary of asking a present -of a pair ofs gloves from any merchant on that account, yet asking and expecting to receive a gratuitous advertisement is a similar demand.— The editor of the Marlboro (Mass.) Journal states the case very plainly when he informs his readers that, “We long ago adopted the plan of charging our regular reading notice price for all editorial announcements of entertainments to which an admission fee is aflixed. - 3Ve make no exception to this rule. In the way of news topies we freely andigladly insert sketches of all entertainments after they have become matters of history. Itr4s ouly the preliminary work, looking to the drawing out of increased patronage from the publie, for which we expect compensation.” :

A NEW diseovery is heralded iin the newspapers which promises to be of great practical importance in all mechanical operations. « It cousists: in the. combination of a substance artificially intended to supersede the use of oils for lubricating-purposes in running gear of all kinds. Thé new material is called “metaline.” It.is a solid substance composed of metallic alloys, first reduced to fine powder, then compressed into' solid -plugs, which are inserted in one of the rubbing surfaces. When once applied it is claim‘ed it needs no renewal, ‘care or attention, and the machinery thereafter needs no oil. The publishers of the New York ZEvening - Post, having watched the progress of the invention with interest, a few weeks ago had metaline applied to one of the large pulleys in their press-room, and the result, they say, has proved so successful that they are having it applied to other portions of the machinery.— It is stated also that two of the elevatorsin the new postofiice in New York are to be fitted with it, and a. number of large establishments, noticeably A. T. Stewart, & Co., have adopted . it.— Should the invention actually proveto be ‘'worth all that is claimed for it, the story of factories and other buildings burning on account of overheated journals and spontaneous combustion produced by oil, will no longer be an everyday affair. i '

The Mare that Beat “The Maid.” g (From the Toledo Commercial.)

Something of a breeze has, resulted from the races of Buffalo Park just closed in the remarkable trotting time claimed to be made by .a hitherto unknown mare, Lulu,.which “cleanedout” the entire entries in the “free-to-all” race for a $4,000 purse. The time claimed is 2:15, made in the third heat, and is said to be the second fastest on'record. Lulu is owned by Joseph Harker, of Rochester, where ‘she last year made 2:l63%—Dbred by ‘Colonel Crockett, of Georgetown, Ky., with this pedigree. She is pure thoroughbred, sired by Alexander’s Her~man,. he by the Moss horse; dam- by imported Horton. She is eleven years old, fifteen hands one inch high, and deep bay color. As a consequence Jorsemen are- excited,. but her age doubtless will keep the animal from winning great laurels further.

A GENTLEMAN of this city, whose veracity is unquestionable, informed -us the other day that he was acquainted with a man living in Wabash county, who had, in the last five years, invested not less than $5OO in lottery schemes; and that the total prizés he had drawn in that time ‘would not aggregate $5O 'in ‘value. Here is a lesson for the poor fools and dupes who are led by glittering promises to invest their money in such rascally enterprises. We ‘do not believe that there ever has been or ever will be a lottery conducted in a fair and honorable. manner, and every dollar given to the sharks who manipulate such swindles is forever lost to the giver. The only way to beat a lottery is to iet it alone; but fools will not be advised and - lotteries will exist -and thrive so long as the world stands.— Wabash Free Trader,

- Next to its irredeemability the greatestievil of the greenback:curren¢y is its uncertainty in amount. No currency can be called good which lacks the prime element of solid confidence, and no system of currency is safe or gound which leaves it entirely within &he control of Congress to increise or decrease the amount at pleasure. No act- can be passed at -one session of Congress which may not be repealed at the next; consequently it is impossible for any currency to be staple whose amount or whose irredeemability is subject to the passion and caprice of Congress. The paper currency of ‘the country should be based on the credit of the government, but its volume and value should somehow be pliced beyond the ‘reach of congressional interference.

A confidence wheat buyer, by the name of Stevens, has been practicing ‘a very nice little game in the neighborhood of Manchester and Liberty Mills. It appears that he bought a couple hundred bushels of wheat at Manchester and put it in a car, took a bill -of lading or shipping bill upen which he drew from Jesse Arnold & Co., bankers, near its full value, and then by some means procured from the agent at Liberty Mills duplicate bills for the same without marking them asSduplicates 'upon which he likewise drew: from the same bank another sum, or perhaps drew both at the same time. After doing this and divers other tricks he evaporated, leaving his victims .to hunt him up at their leisure.— Wabash Free Trader.

Tine Mormon citizens of Bedver, Utah, are about to tender John D.

The packed Mormon jury.returned a verdict which was a foregone conclusion,—& virtual announcement that no Mormon shall be punished for killing a Gentile; and now to add a public reception and a banquet to a man 'who was veryiclearly shown to have the blood of innocent woman and children on his skirts is simply apublic outrage.
