THEMSELVES "GENERALLY USEFUL" AT FIRES.-—The moment you hear an alarm, scream like a pair of panthers. Run any way except the right way—for the farthest way round is always the nearest road to the fire. If you happen to run on a pile of wood, so much the better, you can get a good view of the

neighborhood. If a light breaks on your view, break for it immediately— but be sure you jump into a bow-win-dow. Keep yelling all the time and if you can't make night hideous enough yourself, kick all the dogs you come across, and set them to yelling too.— 'Twill help amazingly. A brace of cats dragged up stairs by the tail would be a "powerful auxiliary." If you attempt this, however, you had better keep an eye <claw>ward. When you reach the scene of the fire, do all you wn to convert it into a scene of destruc tion. Tear down all the fences in the vicinity. If it be a chimney on fire, throw salt down it or if you can't do that, throw salt on a rat's tail and make him run up. The effect will be about the same. If both be found impracticable, a few bucket-fulls of water, judiciously applied, will answer almost as well. Perhaps the best plan would be to jerk off the pump handle, and pound down the chimney. Don't forget to <yell> all the time as it has a prodigious effect to frighten off the fire. You might swear a little too, if you can do it scientifically. If you belong to the "Northern," d—n the ''Friendship;" if to the "Friendship," d—n the"Northern;" and if to neither, don't be partial, but d—n both. The louder the better, of course, the more ladies in the victnity the greater the necessity of "doing up brown."

Should the roof begin to smoke get to work in good earnest, and make any man "smoke" who interrupts you. If it is summer and there are fruit trees in the lot, cut them down to prevent the apples from getting roasted. <Don't forget to yell!> Should the stable be threatened, carry out the cow-chains; never mind the horse—he'll be alive and kicking—and if his legs don't do their duty let them pay for the roast. Ditto as to the hogs—let them save their own bacon or smoke for it. When the roof begins io burn, get a crowbar and pry away the stone steps, or if the steps be wood, get an axe and chop them up.— Next cut away the wash board in the basement story; and if that does not stop the flames let the chair board on the first floor share the same fate.— Should the devouring element still pursue the "even tenor of its way," you hud better ascend into thye next story, and pitch out the pitchers and tumble out tumblers. <Yell all the time>. If you find a baby a-bed fling it into the second story window of the house over the way; but if you find a kitten, let it care-fully down in a work basket then take out the bureau drawers and empty their contents out of the back window, telling

rel and rain-water hogsheads at the

same time. Of course you will attend to the mirror. The farther it can be thrown the more pieces will be made and if any one objects smash it over his head. Do not under any circumstances let the tongs drop down from the second story, as the fall might break a leg und render the poor things a cripple for life; set it a-straddle of your shoulder and carry it down carefully.— Pile the clothes in the middle of the floor and show the bystanders that you can beat the "bugs" at spoiling a bedstead.

By the time you have attended to all these several things the fire will certainly be arrested or the building burned down. In either case your services will be no longer needed, and of course any further directions would be unnecessary.—<Chambersburgh Valley Spirit>. ———————

The Cincinnati Times tells about a young man in that city wjw was to have been married on a certain night. Th$

History of the Discovery. ,f Sjgnor D'Alvear went out tb California nearly two years ago, in consequence of certain information which tie had received of the geological character of that country, with the firm"belief that vast mines of precious metals would be revealed thsrs upon careftil investigation.

His scientific cstcniajtidns proved to be founded in truth and profound wisdom, and his new instrument, the "Goklonieter." fulfilled his highest hopes.
