Caroline Herschel. Septembet Atlantir.J The simple story of her life is as noble in its way as the more exalted history of his. From her earliest childhood she adored her brother William, and on the mere suggestion that she might be sent to England to remain two years with hun, if only she could be spared from her duties at home, she set about knitting for her marhpr and brother " as many cotton

stockings as would last two years atleast," and making " prospective clothes for them." At last she went to liath and became a successful singer in the oratories conducted by her 'brother, copying music for him, " lending a hand" in the work-shop, in the observatory, anywhere where she could be of use, but always with the protoundest humility of spirit. 'I was a mere tool which he had the trouble of sharpening." But the tool bad the true temper. Bhe acquired a knowledge of astronomical calculation, she assisted in the manufacture of specula, and was llerschel's constant companion in the severe labors of observation which he undertook. When he was away from home she computed for him all day. and minded the heavens for him at night, discovering independently no less than eight comets, live of which were first seen by her, and many nebuhe. Best of all, though least conspicuous, she introduced the greatest order in the record of his nightly work, copying and re-copying, computing and re-ci.mputing, veriiying and checking everything, so that" the value of that labor is immensely enhanced. Her devotion in everything was complete : after a severe accident to herself while assisting her brother at the telescope, she speaks ot the " comfort " she had in kuowing that "my brother was no loser, for the remainder of the night was cloudy." Aain, in her diary : " May 3d. I intended to pay a long promised visit to Mrs. ( , but found my brother too busy with putting the forty-foot mirror in the tube. . . . 'therefore I postponed my journey till I was sure I should not be wanted at home." "January 1, 1815. Jfrm. The winter was uncommonly severe. My brother sullered from indisposition, and I for my part, felt I should never be anything else but an invalid for life: but this I very carefully kept to myself, as I wished to be usetul to my brother as long as possibly I could." In Sli, a little note of tSir William's is indorsed in her tremulous handwriting : " I keep this as a relic ! Every line, now, traced by the hand of my dear brother, becomes a treasure to me." She kept a commonplace book, in which she wrote out in full the answers which her brother gave her at breakfast, or in his few leisure moments, to her question as to the mathematical formula; she was to use in her computations, and the like. After her discoveries of comets, the publication of two of her works by the Kcyal Society, and the praise and recognition of her labors by astronomers all over Europe, she still writes, " I had the comfort to see that my brother was satisfied with my endeavors in assisting bim." Kissing Customs. New York Graphic All over the Continent of Europe, ex cept in England, men who are intimate friends kiss each other, but in cold Britain and America 'tis only women who salute each other thus, and that, too, without regard to whether those who embrace be friends or foes. In the Friendly and Society Islands salutation is made by the rubbing of noses together, something as ponies greet each other, and the salutation is returned by each, friend taking -the hand of the other, and with it rubbing his own nose and mouth, lu the 1'elew Islands it is customary to grasp the foot in friendship, and in liurmah, according to a high authority, people place the mouth and nose close to each other's cheeks and draw in the breath as if inhaling an odor divine, saying not "Give me a kiss," but, ''Give me a smell." But in whatever way people kiss, it may be taken for granted that the primitive signification of the salute has no more to do with its meaning when applied than the everlasting "un Myth" had to do with the old Greek's conception of Apollo as Hyperion and as Helios when lie read his Bible that is, his Homeric poems, and took the tale as it was written. A kiss means mucii or ante, according to its time, intention, and circumstances. Without offense a man may kiss his mother-in- i law, if he chooses to, in the same spirit of solemnity in which he kisses the Bible in court. We do not say that, in actual life, any one ever does kiss his mother-in-law, but that he may do so if he chooses. He may in the same spirit kiss his grar.dniotheis and his aunts and, perhaps, even his cousins, if he will keep to the spirit, pure and simple. He may kiss his old nurse and numbers of his female relatives, be may also kiss his affianced wife, but here the list of kissable persons stops short. He may not kiss her whom he loves that is, if he can help it unless be first has formally proposed marriage to her and has been accepted. The chariest maid is prodigal enough if she kisses her cat, but she must set for masculine mortals a premium on ber lips that is higher than gold. Between lovers the kiss has a wonderful, a mystical meaning, and even a scientific aspect, as Dr. Oliver Wendell Holmes has shown in " Elsie Vernier," if we remember rightly, when he says that "alien bloods develope strange currents when they flow near to each other, with only the films that separate lip and cheek between them." The World holds kisses cheap because it looks upon them as meaningless, but what a cold, blate, and heartless view of so all-important a theme is not this to take? Girls, if you feel like kissing, kiss: but know what you are about, and errant so hich a boon only to your accepted lovers. A Startling Theory Concerning- Hydrophobia. 1 Letter to the Brooklyn Argns.J Hydrophobia in the dog, I am satisfied, is the result of the animal having been inoculated by biting some person suffering from the disease of intoxication. Startling as this theory may appear there is not the least question but that the facts will bear it out. First, hydrophobia and mania a polu are identical in most physical conditions subjects dead of either disease present nearly the same autopsy. Second, the saliva of a man dying of delirium tremens and that of a dog sufiermg from rabies, bear the same chemical analysis. Third, the entire system of the patient suffering from alcoholic madness is so poisoned that rapid inoculation will follow any contact with the virus of the blood. Fourth the bite of a man in an alcoholic fit has been known to result in hydrophobia. As to the application of these facts : First, with the canine race, hydrophobia is never spontaneous; with man the disease is known to be. Second, there is not a case on record of a dog having died of hydrophobia that will not admit of proof if the facts can be ascertained that the dog had previously bitten an intoxicated person, or had been attacked by some other animal suffering from a like inoculation. George Will Johxston, Sup't Brooklyn Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals. Some Tall Sheep liaising. A correspondent of the Denver (Col.) Daily Tribune, in its issue of July 24th, concluded an article on wool as follows : But I have to mention the pioneer of this sheep settlement, or the ' boss," as ne is called the one to whom all the above will direct you as the man best qualified to ' talk she p." You will find him to be William II. Walker, whose

extensive range is situated near the Kiowa and Wolf Creeks. Mr. Walker put down his stakes here some five years a.20, with no neighbors in this business, it then being supposed that sheep could not thrive north of the divide. Having

had ten years' experience as manager of a large Eastern breeding establishment, he was not a novice in the art of breed ing. Assuming that the character of his nock would depend mainly upon the quality of rams employed, be spared no time and expense in securing some of the purest merino blood Vermont ever produced. His original Mexican ewes are claimed to have been no way remarkable, but the valuable points in the i.auis have exhibited themselves ail through the flock. An instance of this is in the fact that many ot . his three-quarters breeds arc so well covered, and with so line wool, as to be taken by the inex perienced as thorougnbreus. One sheep shearing eight pounds of wool is worth more than two shearings only one-halt" that amount. Walker's' flock of three thousand from which he sold last year nearly six thousand dollars worth ot wool," and raised one thousand lambs, now worth at least rive dollars per head is actually worth twice as much as an inferior flock of double that number. The " keep" i-i less, and the profit more th.-in double. Ail of his wool is remarkable for its uniformity of length, fineness, strength, and closeness ot fiber, as well as regularity of crimp and yolk, and last, but not "least, its extraordinary weight. East year his average weight per fleece, for the entire herd, was seven and one-funrth pounds. This year it will' probably not fall snort of eight pounds. Many three-quarters breed yearamis have scared thirteen pounds, me weight of the rams' fleeces is still more astonishing. "Dan," his well-known four-year old thoroughbred, sheared a fleece weighing thirty-two and a half pounds, while " Dlackie," another of his herd, sheared twenty-seven anil a half pounds. The average of his twenty-four raws was within a trifle of twenty-three pounds. Many may claim this year as I am told they did last year that Mr. Walker's flock might shear heavily, but that no three thousand Colorado sheep could attain the figures he claims. To such let me say that I saw most of the above fleeces sheared, saw them done up, weighed them myseif, and to the best ot my knowledge there was no attempt at deception. It must be borne in mind that these rams were not housed or blanketed during a storm, nor petted in various ways, as is most of the choice stock belonging to celebrated Eastern breeders. The weight of thes fleeces, while proving the possibilities of our pasture plains, may foreshadow the fact that Colorado is destined to become the great sheep paradise t:f the United States. Railway History. From an interesting article in the Chicago TiiiKS we dip the following: The first railroad intended for the conveyance of passengers and freight opened in this country was the Baltimore and Ohio, which was commenced in 1827, and fourteen miles completed in 1S30. Tramways had been constructed previously for the purpose of carrying coal and stone from the mouth of the pit and quarry to water, but they were never used for passenger traffic. The first important passenger railroad built was the Baltimore and Oliio, and up to 1S3I this was operated by horse power, and the first steam engine used was one of American manufacture. Ia 1831 it was extended Gl miles; in 1832, 67 miles. In ISO" it possesses a mileage of 1,4.3(1 miles, with a le-s st.ck capital and funded debt than any other road of its size in the world. In 1830 the Mohawk and Hudson road was commenced and was opened in the following year. Its proprietor imported an English locomotive, but its weight played havoc with the roadbed and track, and its use had to be discontinued or the railroad would have ceased to exist. The South. Carolina road was commenced in 1830, and in 1832 it was completed 136 miles, being in that time the longest rt.ad in existence. It also bad the honor of being the first on which a locomotive of American Dianu'acture was used. The New York and Harlem was commenced in 1831, as was also the Camden ami Am boy road in New Jersey. Other roads followed. and in 1841 the Western road was opened irom Ikistou and Albany Ti:e annual increase in mileasre from 1830, when 23 miles were in operation, to 183(5, when the total mileage was 1,273 miles, was sharply checked by the financial crisis of 1S37, but the industry quickly rallied, so that in 1842 there were over 4. 000 miles of railroad in this count ry. Up to the time of the California gold fever, in 184'.), the average number of miles of road constructed yearly was 310; but since that year the average has reached 2,000 miles yearly. In 169 the mileage built was 4.9:19 miles; in 1S70, 6.145 miles; in 1871. 7,453 miles ; in 1872, 8310 miles; in 1873. 3 884 miles; in 1874, 2,023 miles ; in 1875, 1 ,4S3 miles ; and up to J uly 1st of the present year about 500 miles, the grand total of railroads in this country at the present time beirg 76,383 miles. A Terrible Situation. Il'ort Jarvis 0;7."tto. A farmer, Horace Miner, ou Tuesday last, was chopping in the woods near Waymart, ten miles from Honesdale. At noon his wife carried his dinner to him. He was engaged in felling a tree when she arrived at the spot, and stood near waiting for bim to get through. She had in her arms a child a few months old. The tree in falling lurched toward Mrs. Miner, and before she could get out of the way it came clashing upon her, one of the largest branches stricking her and pinning both her arms and her child to the earth. Miner ran to the spot. He coukl not see his child, but I his wife was lying with her face turned up anu gasping m death. Miner at once set to work to exrticate his wife and child from that terrible position. The branch of the tree lay across Mrs. Miner, and it was evident the child was beneath the mother. The husband, to extricate the wife and child, was compelled to cut away the branch, which was seven inches through," and before he had finished his task he saw his wife die before his eyes. He removed her body from beneath "the tree and found his child crushed to death, having been crushed deep into the ground. The husband, almost frantic, took both bodies in his arms and carried them a mile through the woods to his home. Kentucky Crops Louisville Courier-J curnnl.l The crop report from all portions of tne Dtate mark ttiis as emphatically the year of plenty among our agricultural people. Whilst the recently harvested wheat crop may not be the largest in number of bushels, it is certainly"one of the best in quality produced in the State since the war. As to corn the indications are that the yield will be the largest ever produced, and the only apprehension is that its superabundance may make it a drug in the market, but in a great beef, bacon, and whisky producing State like Kentucky our cereals are rot apt to go begging for a market. What has been said ot corn will apply equally well to hay, the yield in both quantity and quality being unsurpassed by that of any previous year. Only in the matter of tobacco is there any shading to this bright picture. Between the fly and flood, drought and " frenching" it would seem that not more than a third or a half of the usual amount of the weed will be produced. In a Slate that usually produces one-third of the tobacco raised in the L ruled Slates, so large a falling off is a matter of some concern to the farmer's pocket, but his stomach need feei no apprehension for at least anotheryear to come.

THE TOUXG FOLKS.

That Coif. An M fanner, one morn, hurried out to his barn, W here the cattle were standine, and said, While they tremlvled with fright " ow which of you, last nicht, Shut the barn-dour, while T was in bed?" Each one of them all shouk his head. Now the little Spot. .she was down in the lot, And the way the rest did was a -shame; For not one, nicht tiefure, saw her close up the door, Hut they said that she did all the same ; For they always made her bear the blame. Said the horse, TapilcGray, " I was not up this way LaM nif-'lit, as I now recollect ;" And the bull, pawing by, tossed his horns Tery high, And said, " Wfcerea the one to object. If I say, 'tis that calf 1 suspect T" " It is too wicked now," said the old brindle cow, To aiue huneat folks nf such trims ; (raid thecoek in the tree, " I am sure t wasn't me ;" All the sheep just said " bah !" there were six And they thought now that calf't in a fix 1 " Of course we all knew 't was the wrong thing to '"." Cried the chicken. "Of course," mowed the cat ; " I suppose," said the mule, " some folks think me a fool, But I'm not quite so simple as that ; Weil, that caf never knows what she's at '." Just then the poor calf, who was always the laugh And the jest ot tne yam, came in sitfin ; "Kid you shut my barn-door? said the farmer once more : And she answered, " I did, sir, last nitltt, f or I thought that to close it was right." each boast shook his head ; "She'll catch il," they said, "Serve her n.'ht, for her meddlesome way." Crb'd the farmer, "C,, me hero, little losy, my dear, You have done what I cannot repay. And your fortune is made from to-day. " Vtr,- strangely, last nislit, I forgot the door quite, And if vou hid not closed it so neat. All the colts had slipped in, and gone straight to the bin. And pot what they ought not to eat ; Ihey'd have foundered themselves upon wheat." Then each beast of them all besan loudly to bawl, The mule tried to smile, the cock crew. " Little Spotty, my dear, you're the favorite here." Thev all cried, " We're so glad it was you !'' But that calf only answered tbem, " boo !" Pluebe Cary. Willie's Courage. Willie Carr was one of those boys who never like to be beaten at anything. Only dare him to do a thing and he would do it, no matter how foolish it was. He had lately come to live at a town on the scacoast, and he and his schoolfellows amued themselves on half-holidays by climbing the cliffs, fishing, boating, and many other seaside pastimes. On one Saturday afternoon Willie said to his com panions : " The tide has just turned ; in a quarter of au hour that rock " (pointing to a small rock covered with seaweed) " will be under water, and I dare any of you fellows to run ten time round it." Some shook their heads and said they did not care to run the risk of being drowned, but a few said, " We will go if you will lead us." So off they started. The water was over their shoes at the first round. " Salt water will do us no harm," said Willie. At the sixth round Tom Bishop and Willie were the only ones who kept on running; the water was already above the knees, for the tide was coming in fast. At the eighth round Willie was running alone, and many of the boys said, " Don't go any more, Willie." But Ned Dawson cheered him : " Only twice more, and I will say you are the bravest fellow in Hastings." BiH at the tenth round all said, " Don't go any more." " Do you dare me to do it ?" cried Willie ; " although the water is above my waist, I will go, just to show you ! what I can do." Many of them tried to hold him back, but he rushed off pant;ng for his last round. When he reached the rock he was very tired, so he sat down to recover his breath; then he got up and waved his cap. The boys cheered him, atid cried, " Make haste come along." But he staved longer than was neces sary, just to show how brave he was, aud waved his cap. At this moment a large wave dashed over the rock, drenching him to the skin, and obliging him to start off. But before be had eoue half way on his journey another wv -. rolling along, and he found himself up to his armpits in water ; another came, and then another, and carried him off his feet. He was nearly choked with the salt water that went down his throat, but he recovered himself enough to get back to the rock; there he sat panting and exhausted. His boasted courage began to fail ; he could swim but little, and, incumbered with his wet clothes and all exhausted as i he was, there was not much chance for him. Higher and higher the water rose ; the rock was under water, and there he sat pale and shivering. Some of his comrades ran off for help, but poor Willie doubted if it would come in time. All his sins and follies rose before him like a cloud ; he thought of his mother's anguish, for he was her only son, and how she would feel when she heard he had been drowned drowned! and by his own folly. A large wave rolled over him he tightened his grasp on the sea-weed ; another came, and then another ; a mist rose before his eyes he loosened his hold, and all was dark. Some hours later Willie was in his own bed at home, and a lady with a sweet, pale face was bending over him " Thank God," she said. Willie heard it and opened his eyes. " Oh, mother," he said, " I am saved then ? I was so frightened, and when 1 thought of you death seemed so ter rible." " Yes," she said, " you were saved by a boatman, who heard your schoolfel lows cries of distress ; let us thank God for his mercy in saving vou." Some time after, Willie entered the navy ; he had lost none of his courage and daring, but he acted more under a sense of duty and less to gain man's ap plause. He is now an officer, beloved bv his men and respected by all who know him, for at the call of duty he is always first, and where danger is there you will al ways find him. How to Understand Toetry-. Sometimes a bov or girl says. " I should like to understand poetry ; I do like to read it, but I can not always tell what it means." Dear children, some things go under the title of poetry which are incomprehensible to young aud old, to wise and foolish alike. But the way to understand true poetry that of nature at least is to love the beauty of which it is the picture and the sng. The best poetry is simple and natural as life itself ; and by listening to the sweet voices which are always floating unheeded on the air, you will feel what it is through all your being. Only keep eye and heart open, and never let it be jssib!e for you to scorn or neglect the least thing that God has made. Look for poetry and you will find it everywhere in the fairy-cup moss under your feet in the woodland footpaths, in the song of the robin at your window in the morning, in the patter of the rain on the roof, in the first rosy cloud on the horizon at dawn, aud the last that fades out in the west at sunset. For poetry is written all over the earth by a Divine hand, before it can get into books. The Creator is the great poet. All that is beautiful to eye or ear or heart is His hanelwriting. Wherever a bud opens, a rivulet slips along its pebbly path, ora leaf-shadow dances in the sunshine, there He has written a poem which He meant should be read with delight by every passer-by. Lxtcy Larcom in St. Nicholas. Washington's Dog. General Washington, it is stated, was out hunting in the Virginia forest, accompanied by Lis favorite hound, Governor. A heavy storm of rain and mist coming up, he lost his way, his powder became useless, and, to add to the perils and inconvenience of his situation, he found that he had not his pocket compass with him. In this sorry plight he wandered in circles, as people do who are lot in the bush, wH, weary,

hungry, for he had no food save wild berries. He was almost exhausted, when a happy thought occurred to him. Tying his pocket-flask and his powder-flask to his dog's tail, he fastened his long sash around the animal's neck, holding one end in his hand. Then he gave the dog a tremendous kick. The animal was so completely surprised at this treatment that he stood for a moment paralyzed ; then, wheeling about, he struck a beeline lor home. It is a curious but undoubted fact that any sudden alarm or

attack will quicken a dog s perceptive faculties, render more subtle his scent and powerful his memory, and induce him to strike for his hi me. So the dog fled, and Washington followed over stumps, through bog, into briers until finally the sash gave way. With one tremendous yell Washington scared still further the frantic animal, the terrible banging and clattering of te fla-ks at his heels added to his speed, and in a moment he was out of sight. After a hearty laugh at the incident, Washington leisurely marched in the elirection the dog had taken. It was eay to do so by observing the mossy side of the trees, the direction of the longer branches, and the other signs with which an experienced hunter is acquuiutcd. It was not long before he reached a clearing, and was once more in safety. But the dog, once so j faithfully attached to him, could not to! the day of its death endure his presence, or even hear his voice without relapsing into au agony of terror. Now, children, I like to have you posted in the news of the day, and the incidents of past days, and the above is a story about Washington going the rounds of the press at the present time. That General Washington once existed we ail knew and believe for we have the hatchet story as protif feir it. And iuis also very likely that Washington owned a deig, aud calleel him " Governor." Washington was a man of keen perceptions, and kuew very well what elogged dispositions governors sometimes have, and probably thought the name most appropriate for his four-footed coinpan ion. But that Washington was such a brute as to kick a dog under any circumstances I do not believe. It is true h early discovered a passion for hacking aud cutting and slashing, in a most tree-son-ab'e manner, bark-ers of another growth, aud being a surveyor may have done a little in t Ins lint m later days, though as lor doing any other kind of lyin' none of us believe ; but that he would deliberately kick a dog to whom be had given the great name of Governor, that he would show this utter lack of cur-tesy toward a favorite companion, I beg leave to doubt. The dog probably saw Washington's danger, aud hastened to save his life. Then, too, the dog was probably very hungry, and smelt dinner cooking somewhere. Dogs are very keen on the scent, and this is probably one of the reasons this dog went as if he were sent for. The fact that Y asliington s pocket-MasK was empty, and he was wandering about in circles, look a little suspicious ; but great allowance should be made lor newspaper reporters, who write things up in what would be to them the most natural manner. As for the mist coming up, I suppose, on account of his long slay, he was missed at home. It is well to be posted, children; but you see the difficulties that would arise in taking a story like this without several grains of salt. Golden Hours. riELB AM) FARM. Good Stock For a farmer who is rearing stock for market it is as necessary that he should breeel good animals as it is that he should feed them well; and if he wishes them to thrive it is indispensable that he gets gooei blood. If the leinale portion of his stock are only fair to middling, goeid animals may be produced by that he snouhl use ui i.ureha.-Otnose an imals having all their points and pedigrees up to the staudatd of perfection, because they bring lancv prices, luit he can do this: avoid the purchase or use of the narrow chested, the weak loins, the thin chine, and the hard, thin, parch ment like hide of a bull or a cow, and hereditary defects and unsound feet and legs in a hoise. Of course tanners can not afforel to buy, for breeding grade stock, the best animals at public sales, but they can buy and select secoud or third best stock, which is better than to have the best of a bad lot. fcxmie farmers have a nice lot of cows and mares, but ruin their produce by aa inaitierent bull or stallion, when it they would use a good sire they could not fail to breed stock that would be better, command more money, and be ready for market months before the iuditlerent bad ones. To breed aud feed economically is of the greatest importance: aud to do it with profit to the farmer, judgment I mustbeusetl and exercised in the breeding and selection of well-bred animals, either cattle, horses, frheepor bogs. Il it pays to raise any of these, it must pay better to breed and rear the better class of each. Another important item to farmers is the relative value of feeding stuns, and the English say that 41 lbs. of wheat is as goeid as 45 lbs. of peas, or f4 lbs. of barley, or 55 lbs. of oats, or 01 lbs. of beans or 00 lbs. of clover hay, or 100 lbs. of ordinary hay, or 200 lbs. of potatoes, or 250 lbs. of cabbage, or 275 lbs. of carrots, or 397 lbs. of t enets, or 475 lbs. of green clover, or 500 lbs. of turnips, or SOS lbs. of oata or barley, or 450 lbs. of w heat or bean straw. Of course no one food is suitable to be fed alone ; all alimentary substance must be given with a view to some purpose. Young animals require food rich in mineral and albuminous imbstances, to make bone, fat, and keep up the animal heat; and combined with good feod must be cleanliness, warmth, good ventilation, and unremitting attention. If those requisites are all present, and the animals regularly fed, the farmer cannot fail to succeed. . In the American Jltiral Hume of June 27 T. B. Hoot says : " The idea prevails with many farmers that lands can be wholly restored to their original fertility by the plowing in of clover or other green crops, but it is an error in theory and also in practice. That lands can be greatly benefited by this operation there is no doubt; but the benefit is more in the mechanical condition thau in the quality of the soil. There are lands in wme localities that are to strong in the mineral element that to supply the organic te keep it loose -and mellow will produce good crops for many years with no other manures. But they will ultimately fail to produce good grain. The grain grown on soils deficient in mineral matter will be of poor quality, and will make no such quality of flouer as that grown thirty or forty years ago, nor will it make any such quantity per pushel. Then a barrel of extra flour was made from four and a quarter bushels of wheat. Now it takes nearly five bushels to make a barrel of peorer quality. Our wheat is deficient in the phosphates, because those elements are deficient in the soil on which it is grown. Grain of all kinds when grown on soils rich in the mineral elements, is much more valuable than that on lands deficient, for the reason that the soil can not produce that which it does not contain. It is not in this section of country alone that the quality of grain is declining, but wherever lands have grown grain exclusively for a term of years the same results are seen. " Every farmer is convinced that we must use some fertili.er to keep our lauds in condition to grow grain profitably. Clover was our reliance formerly, with barn-yard manure of the farm. We now think it expensive to plow in clover for an uncertain crop. If commercial manures can be profitably used we shall soon

know it. They are being tested this season more generally on a greater variety of soils and crops than ever before, and the results must be more conclusive than any that have preceded." In the Country Gentleman of about the same date an intelligent correspondent has the following : "A farmer who sows clover seed plenteously aud uses plaster literally need not fear to grow as large crops as he can. Large crops enable him to make and use more manure and thus increase the fertility of the soil. In the clover crop the

large, broad leaf tnkss the most of its growth from the atmosphere and the root is mainly nourished by the subsoil. Thus where clover is grown the soil from live to six inches in depth is constantly tending to fertility and where manure is carefully saved and ued the farmer who grows clover has observed the first requisite to success in his business."

A wash for the teeth to whiten them is often made with acids, which whitens simply by destroying them. To keep them thoroughly clean is really to whiten them. A good wash is made by dissolving two ounces of borax in three pints of boiling water, and adding jjteaspoonful of spirits of camphor when it is nearly cold.

Ax English writer gives the following directions for cleaning clocks, w hich suit all metal clock.1, and the larger anel coarser they are the belter : Dip a feather into common paralline oil, such, aa is used for lamps, and touch up all the oily places of the clock, especially axles and hole's; then let the clock stand for a few hours, give more paralline, and touch ofter.er il you think it is better for it. Afterward strew strong washing jvowder r ...in- tl" whpclsetc.j and plunge the V HMTlie .in tne water gets cool enough to place your hands in, when, with a tooth brush rubbed with soap, wash out the dirt from the works. Alterward cleanse completely from all trace e-t soap and powder in plenty of warm water, and the operation is complete, the clock not having to be taken asunder at all. Many an e ld clock cemld be cleaned by this method, which if taken asunder, even by skilled hands, would never tick again, ewing to fresh portions of the wheels being placed in contact. A Curious hinese Fish. tl.oudull N't-ws. If Mr. Darwin wished for a further instance in support of his theory of the origin of species, he might i-sibly find one in some curious fish which have just been brought to this country and added to the collection iu the Brighton Aquarium. These fish are calleel " telescope fish," from the remarkable length ot their organs of vision, which project a considerable distance from the side of the head. They are natives of China, and the stories which have been circulated concerning this peculiar feature in their formation have generally been received with incredulity. In large specimens the eyes are placed on the extremity of a cylindrical projection as much sts an inch in length, and wiien, at last, individual fish found their way to Europe, they were considered to be a tiistinct species. A further peculiarity is in the formation of the caudal and auat fins, which are prolonged in such a way as to give the fish the appearance of having two or more tails. These " telescope fish" are, however, gold and silver carp, which the Chinese love to exercise their cunning in cultivating, and they originally sprang, no doubt, from some specimens which produced the abnormal growth as a protection from some injury either accidentally or purposely inflicted. Just as florists produce the manifold varieties of form and color iu plants from what is known in the trade as a "sport," or unusual growth, or as bird fanciers breed the " cranky'' varieties of canaries which find favor with certain Amateur, so the Chinese, by years of selection and inbreeding, have produced this monstrous form of the common carp. Weighing a Hole. Mr. 11 , of a certain town iu Vermont, is not distinguished for literality, either of purse or opinion. His ruling passion is a fear of being cheated. The loss, whether real or fancied, of a few cents, woulil give him more pain than the destruction of an entire navy, lie once bought a larga cake of tallow at a country store, at ten cents a pound. On breaking it to pieces at home it was found to contain a large cavity. Ttis he considered a terrible diseleisure of cupidity and fraud. He drove furiously back to the store, entering in great excitement, bearing the cake of tallow, exclaiming vehemently: "Here, you rascal, jou have cheated i.ie ! Do vou call that an honest cake of tallow? It is hollow, and there ain't near so much as there appeared to be. I want you to make it right." "Certainly," replied tfce merchant, " I'll make it right. I didn't kcow the cake was hollow. You paid ten cents a pound. Now, Mr. M , how much do you suppose the bole will weigh ?," iT.haa just been discovered that there is no law preventing a minor or even an infant from being a Justice of the Peace in New Hampshire. An Exeter beiy, who received a commission in March, 1875, and will not be twenty-one till next February, lately issued a warrant upon which a man was jailed; but the Supreme Court, calling the atlatr irregular, releases the man, and the boy is asked to resign his commission.

Origin or the Prince or Wales's Motto. The words ' Ich dien," forming the motto affixed to the anas cf the Prince of Wales, are German, and signify " I serve." Tradition asserts that they "were similarly employed by Juhn, King of Bohemia, who was slain in the battle of Cres-y by the Black Prince in 131. The latter thereupon assumed the motto as his own, to indicate that he served under the Kin?, his father, Edward III, of England. The Welsh have also a tradition that Edward I promises! to pro vide Wales a prince " who could seak no word of English ;" and when his son, Edward of Carnarvon was born he presented him to- them, saving in Welsh, " Eich dyn" (Behold the man).
