The proposition to erect a bust cf Longfellow in "Westminster Abbey continues to meet with favor as :: Jitting recognition by England of one cf the greatest of the Anglo-Saxon poets of the nineteenth century. Alfred Tennyson, Engiand's poet-laureate, has announced his adhesion to the plan.

It was in this neighborhood that the informer Connell and more than sixty farmers' sons were arrested as " moonlighters." The Pennsylvania Railroad company have taken the lead in experiments looking to the adoption of electric lamps for passenger cars. The elec trie storage is accomplished by the use of secondary batteries underneath the floor of the cars, thirty cells of battery furnishing current for six Edison lamps for seventeen hours. Test experiments made are said to have been very satisfactory to the officers of the company. The Washington monument, at the national capital, now exceeds 300 feet in height, and is rising at the rate of about a foot a day. The workmen are protected by a strong netting which surrounds the top of the monument. Already the net has saved the life of one workman, who was blown from his place by a gust of wind. "When finished the monument will be by fax the highest structure of its kind in the world. According to the latest census the population of London is 4,764,312, which is much larger than the population of the thirteen American colonies before the Revolution. There are in this gr-^at city more than double the number of people in Denmark, includ ing Greenland ; nearly three times as many as in Greece; more than eighteen times the population of Montenegro; some thousands more than Portugal, including the Azores an \ Maderia ; nearly treble the population of Servia ; more than Sweden or Norway or Switzerland. A leading business man of Central iN ew x orK. nnumg mat ne nau reauiieu the close of his life, called his two sons to his bedside, told them that he had arranged his affairs so that they would have a million each, and begged them to do nothing but live like gentlemen on the income from their posses 'ions. Then he died; and his two sons, in pursuance of their father's last request, proceeded to " do nothing and tc live like gentlemen." In twelve months the life of a gentleman finished one of the soils, and in another vear completed the earthly career of the other. Both died drunkards. "When Brigham Young died, one of his sons, "Willard, was teacher Qf engineering at West Point, and the young Youngs at once began to litigate their father's possessions. An agent of theirs wrote to know what Willard was going to do in the case, and he replied that he could make a living by his profession, and that when the wranglers had helped themselves _to_ _ whatever they chose to allot' him from the estate. With this nermission. thev allotted him a package of railroad stock -which was good for nothing, but he took it without grumbling. In the little time that has passed since then, however, the railways of the State have become useful and very valuable, and "Willard Young is rewarded for his manly conduct in the affair by finding his property worth more than that of any of his fellow-heirs. Dr. J. E. Garretson, a Philadelphia physician and writer, whose name in the literary world is "John Darby," has given, in his book," Brushland," a sketch of the working out of one of his hobbies. Ten years ago he determined to find out by personal experience whether or not the charms of simple rustic life are equal to those of metropolitan luxury. So he went into the wilds of Xew Jersey and bought fifty acres of rough swampy ground. There year after year the fashionable city doctor worked during his vacations, clad in corduroy and heavy boots. He ?-etft jlown trees, dug ditches, got out sfnirms nlowprl anri nlsnted and toiled from sunrise to sunset like any farm laborer. He ate the commonest food, passed his evenings sitting on a rail fence smoking a clay pipe, and enjoyed eight hours of sound sleep every night. f Thus he lived a double life, and now declares that the happier portion of it was that spent in the brushland wilderness. Man-Horses in Japan. A Mr. Pidgeon, ot England, has been traveling in Japan and has written a book about it, containing many lifelike pictures of the country and its : people. A strange feature is the run by "pair-horse jinrickishas" (manr?TQ\x*r> from TnTrin f.Tpdrlo^ to Xikko. On the return journey the coolies offered to show the travelers their power, and ran back to Xakada (fifty-eight miles) in one day. The following are the author's notes of the journey: Leaving Xikko at 7:45 a. sr., the men ran twenty miles in two hours and fifty minutes without a stop. Then * they rested twenty minutes, taking a bowl of rice and some weak tea. The rest of the journey was made by tenmile stages, with stops of a quarter of an hour between each, and the fiftyeight miles were completed in ten hours, including stops, or eight hours and a quarter,exclusive of stops,being at the rate of 7.3 miles per hour while ^ running, and 7.8 miles per hour including stops. The whole party arrived at y'akada in capital condition, laughing and chattine- aavlv. Thev ran. almost naked, at an even trot, with a long, springy stride, and took nothing but rice, a "little fish and tea, by the way. Their feet were protected by straw sandals; but if these wore out, they were not particular about replying them with others. Their consideration for one another was remarkable. The man between the shafts has the hardest work, and the strongest coolies are always ready to take more than their fair share of this position, while the weaker never shirked it. It rained hard during the last third of the journey; but whether they dripped with perspiration or rain made no difference to those Tjlucky little fellows. who, after completing fifty miles, ran the last eight miles to Xakada within an hour. The pay which these eight coolies received?and "brimmed over with satisfaction " on getting it?amounted 10s. English money, or 2s. 8Jd. per day per man !

If this is not successful, add a lump of chalk; then dampen the food and spread a little magnesia upon it, and mingle a handful of ground oak bark with each feed of grain. See that the stable is well ventilated and cover all projecting timbers with strips of metal or fill them with nails. The Apple Tree Borer. The apple tree borer lives in the tree during the winter and until it matures and becomes a beetle like its parent, when it does no damage except to lay its eggs and repeat its work and generation. The mature insect is a beetle called saperda bivittata, this lays its eggs in the summer on the bark of the apple tree near the ground, and the worm which proceeds from the egg bores into and under the bark, feeding upon the green layer of soft new bark and wocd. If it goes completely around the tree it, of course, cuts the sap channels and prevents the flow of saD and so kills the tree. The remedy is to examine the tree, find the holes and push a piece of wire into them and kill the grubs; or, if they cannot be reached, to cut them out with a knife or gouge, saving the bark as much as possible.

If you attempt to keep chickens in damp, dark, illy ventilated houses and low, wet swampy runs, disease will follow surely. When cholera is around among the neighbors' fowls use some disinfectants. A (heap and good disinfecting fluid may be made by dissolving three pounds of copperas in five gallons of water and add inn half a pint of crude carbolic acid. If the acid cannot be had conveniently, use the copperas without it, sprinkle the floor, nests, walls and perches, or use a solution of sulphuric acid, say thirty of acid to one thousand of water, and applied in the same way, or better if washed by means of a broom or brush. It is almost useless to dose fowls with medicine while they remain where the infectuous poison still lurks and unless you adopt the sanitary measures recommended. And if you attend to the sanitary business in time you will nave but little need to dose your iowis with powerful drugs.?Poultry Monthly. Cabbage YV orra. The American Garden says: Helle bore, lime, salt and similar substances have been used with varied success for the destruction of cabbage worms. It is now stated that bran and buckwheat flour answer the purpose better than any ether remedies that have been tried. The bran is simply dusted over the infested cabbages as soon as the worms make their appearance. If the worms are very thick about a handful of bran is required for each cabbage head, and sometimes it is necessasy to go over the plants a second time. A hundredweight of bran is sufficient for an acre. It must be ap plied when the worms are young. When they are full grown or very strong it does not affect them. The buckwheat flour is sii'tec oil them by means of a sieve, in the evening or in the morning?when the dew is on the plants._ not -destroy"worms a second one shoili&hW made. It is probable that wheat flour, fine flour, fine Indian meal, or any other pulverent farinaceous substance would have the same effect.

Turnips as n. Stock Food. Turnips are represented as forming the foundation of agricultural and stockraising in Great Britain. They have a regular place in the rotation of crops, and are regarded as essential to keeping the soil fertile and free from weeds. They hold the place that corn does in t.Tiii rrkiint.rv in fn.ffpnino- all kinds of stock. A distinguished British farmer states that stock-raising in America differs from that in Great Britain only in the circumstance that corn is here substituted for turnips. That we must soon find some substitute for corn for feeding to stock in most parts of the country appears certain. The crops in the most favored parts of the country have recently been very small, and the quantity raised has not been - sufficient for supplying other demands than that of feeding stock. Except in a few of the most cenJ --1 _ J? XI "TTr i. trai. oi tne \\ esieru ouuc^ ttiu is too expensive to feed to other animals than hogs with a view of preparing them for the butcher. In the great stock-raising regtons that t.re being developed in the t.xtreme Sou*:h, North and West it is impossible to raise large crops of corn. Cattle and sheep will make a good growth on grass alone, but to fatten them properly they require other kind of food. There is rarely any profit in converting small grains into beef, pork and mutton, and there is a demand for some crops like turnips that can be fed with oil cake or other rich food. The plan which is generally followed in the British islands and the Scandinavian countries of feeding some root crop in connection with a small amount of oil cake is an excellent one, and it should be introduced into many parts of this country. It would result in giving us better meat at a reduced price. About Tree Professor J. L. Budd, of the Iowa Agricultural college, says : Trees blight least: i. In orchards on light-colored sous in eievatea airy positions, z. uu soils shaded the preceding season by a succulent growth of second crop clover or of buckwheat. 0. In orchards cultivated in the early part of the preceding season and shaded the latter part with marsh hay or other rubbish. 4. In orchards kept whitewashed on trunks and main limbs the preceding season. 5. Where the trunks and lower limbs are shaded on the south by walls, tight board fences, low buildings, evergreens, or even boards so placed as to maintain a lower temperature of the tree during July and August. G. Where orchards are exclusively plant"d with varieties indigenous to countries with very hot, dry summers such is the inter-continental steppes of Northern Europe and Asia. Trees ai .'>t subject to blight: 1. Or. dark-coiv - 1 soils exposed to the sun, in sheltei positions. 2. In places where they are exposed to the reflected heat of tig'it beard fences, walls, or wooden buildings cT to blasts of heated air passirg over drv grain or grass stubble, heated roads, etc. 3. Where the varieties are indigenous to sections with relatively humid and cool summers. These general conclusions point to excessive heat and aridity of air as an exciting cause of blight, especially when taken in connection with the fact that blight is only known in countries with dryer and hotter summer air than is known in the native ranges of our best varieties of the apple and peai. i How Jo Save Seed. The following is from the pen or Dr. : O. F. Xeedham, Washington. I). C.: I How to prevent seed from deterior' ating is a most important question. ly: ing at the foundation of ail agricultural ; and horticultural prosperity. Nature's law is to " multiply ;md replenish," no matter as to the particular quality, hut evervthiny as to the nuantitv. "The i survival of the fittest" governs the re: suit. But nature's operations are too slow for our short lives, so the business . ol'the cultivator is to aid -Mother Nature and thus reach the best results in ; the shortest periods. It is a fact too j | well known that, ordinarily, crops de-: j teriorate, and this, for one reason, be-! j cause the seed becomes weakened. The ; story of " Deere's Improved Lima | Beans" will illustrate the idea and exj plain the whole modus operandi of j saving seed. Some years ago I -a orjirdrvnpr ac&pri nur "\Tr Saun i tiers how he could improve thej i Lima beans. He was told to find, if ; ! possible, a pod having at least four [ beans; the next season to plant the one, j | the largest and best of these; the next, i season to select as before one bean, the : one that not only seemed to the eye the j ! largest and best, but the one that! j could weigh the most, and then to pur- : i sue this method fur several years. ! j The result we all know is a great im- i | provement of that delicious vegetable. I One lias asked why our melons are so j I inferior nowadays. The answer is j ! that pains are not taken in saving the ! ! IT",. .,, nf Trtiiclr niol- I I DCCU. JL ilCi "5 10 at VI iuucn. ja**.*- j i ons sold by one of our seedsmen, the I " Hunter " melon, which illustrates the j I point. A Mr. Hunter received some j | years since from abroad seeds of a very ; j choice melon. These were planted | | and the seed of only the very best were j I kept. In this manner has the seed | i been selected, and now, after more j j than twenty years, this variety I commands the highest price in i our markets, and the seed sells for $-3 per pound, while other | varieties can be had for fifty cents, and i are dear at that. I have seen a stalk ! I of corn bearing ten ears. Of course j j this ninefold increase came from se- j | lecting the seed at lirst of a stalk that: i bore two good ears, then there would ; I be a few with three ears, and so on j ; until the grand result was reached. 1 ! i know many farmers say that if they ; ; can get one good ear oft each stalk j ; they will be satisfied. Well, such men j J are not very particular, and will buy j j corn from a neighbor's crib and plant i i the best of his. Of course, they get j | only an ordinary crop. Is not this the j i reason that growing Indian corn has j : become such a poor and unpaying busi-1 | ness? For my part I will let the idiots i i grow this corn, and I will purchase it j j in the fall for less than $2 a barrel. Permanent Grass Land. On shaley and sandy soil permanent j ; grass in remunerative quality is out of j i the question in our hot and dry cli- j | mate. Neither can we rely upon the ! soil of our limestone riuges ior a sue- j cessful continuation of grass, nor upon \ i the lighter clay loams in seasons of j j severely dry weather, the drought be- j I ginning early. More success can be ! j obtained on a deep, somewhat heavy I loam, kept well enriched and with i ' good drainage, if the deep-rooting j j grasses are grown, such as the Ken-! : tueky blue and the orchard grasses. ! j Timothy or redtop it is Impossible to j ! continue successfully on a light, dry : I cnil in nnr Him nip as is but too abacd ! antly proved. Even on our days, j ! adapted to timothy, this grass will\ | thin out in a few years, when thy land I i is again given to the plow. But this is \ I owing to the bad management. Better i | successes obtained by keeping the land j enrieiied, making two cuttings instead j j of one, thus improving both the quantity i ; and the quality of the hay. "Without it, i J and by cutting timothy late, the j j ground parches. I have known whole j j tields destroyed, not a live root left, j This never happens with orchard grass j ^a^good ground, nor any of the deep j ; rootin^gcasses. There- is. one I loco -or oil L-nmrn that on a proper soil^infidknvlv en-1 riched, the climate favoriag, a heavy j growth of grass can be grown with-! out seeding the land, nature having ; provided for this. Thus- our yellow j knolls, if favored with a good fertil- j i izer and a moist, growing season, will j i cover themselves with a dense herb- j I age and of superior quality; this even ! j where the land before was naked, as } with corn ground or plowed land. The j ! heaviest growth of white clover I ever ; ! saw was on a ootato natch 011 which ; j only plaster?no seed?had been | i sown. Manure and moisture are the j ; great requisites in grass growing; you'j can hardly manure too highly. J*ut it! : is necessary, if the greatest benefit I i would be realized, to make at least two ! I cuttings. This is to prevent the harm | j from lodging, which, in a wet sea- j I son, if allowed, is serious, bleaching; ! and rotting the grass below?the effect j ! of shade lessening greatly the nutri- j . ment properties, hurting also the plant. j by exposing it abruptly to the hot rays ! 1 of the sun on the removal of the crop. ; To cut earlier when the stand is less ; heavy and erect and the ground more ! I moist, and the midsummer heat and | ; drought have begun, is not only to se- j ! cure a sweet, fresh growth, retaining j i the same flavor, but the plant will be : favored and a new growth at once start j up, which, on good soil, will soon ! shade the crop and push on to a good | j crop. This when cut will not find the : I plant exhausted as when a single crop j ; at maturity is taken, the ground being | ' less affected by drought and exhaustion ! (no seed having formed), so that ground j and plant are in better condition to j j sr.art and advance a fall growth, which ; ; in no case should be fed off, unless on : ! a very rich soil and favorable weather, j ; when it may be somewhat reduced, j i leaving sufficient for protection against \ j ine irost. so w:in pasture , it snoiua i | not be fed too close, either in summer ! ! to guard against the heat or in autumn j to protect from the frost.?F.

Lemons may be kept fresh for a long time in a jar of water, changing the water every morning. Lamp shades of ground glass should be cleansed with soap orpearlash; these will not injure or discolor them. To remove spots from furniture take four ounces of vinegar, two ounces of swfpt.nil nnc fmncr> of turnentine. Mix ! and apply with a funnel cloth. Soot falling oil the carpet from open chimney; or carelessly handled stove pipes, if thickly covered with salt, can be brushed up without injury to the carpet. To clean oil-cloth, wash with warm milk. Once in six months scour with hut soapsuds; dry thoroughly and apply j a coat of varnish. They will last as lung again. One pound of green copperas dissolved in one quart of boiling water will destroy foul smells. Powdered borax scattered in their haunts will disperse cockroaches. For liome-inade camphor ice, melt half a teacupful of mutton tallow and put into it a piece of camphor gum about the size of a large hickory nut; pour it into a cup or mold to harden.

Recent geological investigations are thought to establish the fac-t that the eastern portion of Kansas, a portion of Nebraska, Southern Iowa, Northern Missouri, etc., were once covered by a fresh-water lake; the body of water thus formed naturally received numerous rivers and smaller streams from the vast outlaying regions, the turbid waters of which deposited in time a sediment varying from 150 to a few feet in depth. Is the southern hemisphere of our earth colder than the northern ? Mr. Hennessv and Mr. Henel say that tiie southern, owing to its greater mass of water, must have the higher temperature, or about 15.4 degrees Centigrade, although Ilerr Mann thinks that 15.2 degrees Centigrade would fairly represent that of either side of the equator. This, in "steamship"! raffle and meteorological research, should soon be placed beyond the reach of controvery. Arm-chair "working out of facts amount to little. "What railroad Trains Arc Won:li.

St. Louis has a female barber who is ' the wife of one of the proprietors of ; one of the best shops in the city. She ! applies the lather dexterously and! does her work quickly and neatly. In Europe young men and educated j ladies are studying electrical engineer- j ing, a profession not overcrowded, and great fortunes have been made in its pursuit. The enormous extension of the telegraph telephone cables into every part of the world will create a * ? 1 _ -I-:ii~/i j great aemunu. iur sumcu aoumi; engineers. Every afternoon at 6 o'clock a lady stands opposite the Methodist church on Hudson avenue, Albany, and awaits the return of a husband who will never come. A number of years ago the marriage occurred, and soon after the husband joined the seagoing vessel to which fcj? . was-drowned Pacific coastT^The woman became demented and still believes her husband will return. Mrs. Browne, mother of-the late "Artemus "Ward," resides in a tasteful COllcige 111 >Y citeilUlU, -U?C. kJUC ID a: fine-looking lady, about seventy years of age, and' possesses charming conversational powers. She enjoys the calls of her numerous visitors, and exhibits with pride a register containing the autographs of hundreds of persons from all the States and from many foreign lands who have, for at least a few 1 moments each, been her guests. < Mme. Gonzales, who has been visit- I ing Senor and Senora Eoa, at the Mex- I ican legation, Washington, is the wife : of the president of the republic, and has come to this country to perfect herself in the studv of medicine and surgery. She learned the rudiments of both on the battlefields of Mexico, where she won the name of the "Modern Joan of Arc." Her name and deeds are favorite themes for song and story among the writers of Mexico. She is said to be of medium height, plump and well proportioned, with keen dark eyes and an aquiline nose. Fashion Notes. Old bonnet stvles are revived. Round hats will be much worn. Egyptian red gloves are the rage. Scotch plaid satins appear among silk dress goods. Postilion plaits to be in good form j must be pressed flat. Mahogany fed is as fashionable as i mahogany furniture. Masculine hats, jackets, redingotes j and ulsters are much worn. Puffed and shirred brims are a fea- j ture in Paris hats and bonnets. Black lace is used in cascadcs, in - - - - ^ . i combination witli lurs, ior cioaK trim- ( ming. Dyed furs are not out of vogue, but j undyed ones are gaining in popular ' favor. Printed satines with large figures on dark and tinted grounds are used for cloak linings. Novelties in wool fabrics are appliqued figures in plush and embroider- I ies in chenille. Ottoman silks, velours, poplins, in j a word, repped fabrics of all varieties, are in demand. Chenille, satin cords and braids of | various widths all play their part in | aew dress trimmings. The Phrygian cap, projecting far j over the face, appears among other [ military novelties in Paris. Ottonman plushes have heavy repped j grounds on which are designs in thick j and long pile plush. Among the new ribbons are those j with Ottoman grounds on which ap- j pear brocaded plush flowers. The long pelisse with a ruche at the [ bottom and up the front is a garment J at the present time much in vogue. i To mingle two kinds of lace on one I costume, bonnet or piece of neck lin- i gerie is good form and correct taste at present. Large long buckles in colored and iridescent metals are used to fasten the looped draperies of silk and fine woolen , Presses. Velvet and felt are the leading ma- j ierials for ladies' bonnets anil hats, j and feathers and birds the leading i ;rimmings. * There is a fancy at present for house :lresses composed of a solid-colorcd j jacket and a bright plaid or novelty i fabric skirt. Long plain cloth pelisses, finished | with collars and cufTs of plush, are the first fall maps for f. very-day and business purposes. The taste for braiding assures the j ' prevalence of cloth and flannel cos- j tumes. Tailors protest against all such j trimming, but it relieves the plainness i of cloth suits and is desirable provided it is not too heavy for comfort. Gay house dresses for young ladies have the waist, sleeves and skirt of blue and red striped cashmere, with a corset bodice, deep cuns ana ouncueo \ . up overskirt of red cashmere, scalloped ' oil the edges and bound with blue i braid. The floral panier is a new garniture j for evening dresses. It begins at the i point of the dress waist, is festooned ! accross each hip and falls in two long : vines on the back of the skirt. The j entire panier is mounted on net, and is j made of roses, lilies and leaves. The fit of a dress is just now far more j important than the material of which i it is composed. Provided it is perfect in the above respect, no matter whether j fV.Q Arnoa ie /vP cillr or nf sai?kY?lnt.'h it ! will attain that standard of merit ! which gauges the present fashion. Loveiy little toques and turbans i made of feathers are again imported, j They are formed of the plumage of I birds from every quarter of the globe, j With these come graceful little mouchoir muffs made of feathers to match, and upon the outside is set an effigy of the bird of whose feathers the turban and muff are supposed to be made. Ready for a Fight. It is not necessary to cross the Atlantic in order to visit places that are foreign and strange to the American travelers. How different is a Canadian city from one of our own! Halifax, in Nova Scotia, for example, amazes and amuses an American citizen, from the moment he gets a view of its magnificent harbor?one of the finest in the world. He sees for the first time in his life ?unless he has traveled abroad?a city that is held on the tenure of conquest. It is a city fortified and garrisoned; | and the fortifications are on a scale j that recalls those of Gibraltar. As soon as the visitor is fairly within view of the city, and while it is still five or six miles distant, he sees on a j lofty height, commanding the approach \ to it, a mass of grass-covered earthworks, with great guns slanting down from deep embrasures. The harbor narrows as the city is neared, and very soon is seen on another height a stronger and newer fort, with guns of the best caliber, all aimed with a slv ' I and covert menace at some imaginary foe. In front of the town nature lias placed a small island, a green chunk of earth, of irregular shape, rising from the water a hundred feet or more; a cool and pleasant spot for a picnic. Man has converted it into an earthwork of almost Gibraltar strength. He has dug into it, undermined it and placed in it as many great guns as h* could point at the imaginary foe who covets the city and is coming up the bay to capture it. Halifax rises from the water's edge i.(j ncai uic oumiutu ui. ?ix tunuiuw, two hundred and fifty feet high. The summit itself is crotroed by un extensive fortification, called the Citadel,? green with grassy slopes?in which are set a number of huge pieces of ordnance, slanting over the town toward the same phantom foe. Just above the city rides at anchor a mighty iron-clad of eight thousand tons burden. She has a crew of seven hundred and fifty men. Her guns are few in number, but of earthquake power, capable of hurling six-hundred pound balls at any power presuming to enter the harbor with uncivil intent. This monster is painted white, and l-v o + nr?o/l < T*n ID 1U11J SJJ. tilC I^COL-AAClXCIl J.U1V1IU vw be found atioat Near her lie two other iron-clads, smaller, but by no means small, each swarming with blue-clad men, not unwilling to exchange chafi with a passing boat. On shore, what first greets the eye of a new-comer? . A squad of red-coats going to relieve sentries. Their red coats are of the reddest red. Their summer helmets are of spotless white, and on the front of them glistens in letters of burnished gold the number of their regiment and the arms T?/*1 /I \JL XiU??lCUJLU. If the object of those who designed this uniform was to give to it the most conspicuous character possible, that object has been accomplished. But that is no affair of ours. What we wish to remark is that there are about three thousand of these red-coated gentlemen. Splendidly drilled and equipped they pass the season at this agreeable summer resort, serenely awaiting the hostilities of the shadowy foe whose coming is so long delayed. It is evident that the British lion has a strong grip upon the beautiful capital of Nova Scotia. But the puzzle to an American is, who wants to get it away from him, that he should take the trouble to hold it so extremely tight ? "VVe could not but think of the words of John Bright: "If you want war prepare for war; if you want peace, prepare for peace." England prepares for war, and her experience, like that of [ other warlike nations, orives si<milicance I 7 O" O to Mr. Bright's aphorisms?she generally has war, whether she wants it or not.? Youth's Companion. A. Movable Mountain of Sand. In tne eastern part of Churchill county, Nevada, is a sand-dune, which is remarkable alike for its peculiar formation and moving propensities. As far around as the eye can reach is a vast wilderness of greasewood and stunted sagebrush, with here and there abrupt mountain ridges, or a sharp, rocky peak. The dune, or i SllllU iuuuiiiaui xiugtr, >> men 10 awun four miles in length and covers probably a mile of grease wood in width, was perhaps formed by the heavy winds which prevail in that section, blowing across these deserts through a natural opening in a small range of mountains and depositing the small particles of sand that were picked up in a heap where the wind's course is disturbed and an eddy formed. In the whole dune, which is from 1UU to 'iW leeu iii ueigut, iuiu cuul<*i.us millions of tons of sand, it is impossible to find a particle much larger than a pinhead. It is so fine that if an ordinary barley sack be filled and placed in a moving wagon, the jolting of the vehicle -would empty the sack, and yet it has no form of dust in it and is as cloan as any sea beach sand. The mountain is so solid as to give it a musical sound when trod upon, and oftentimes a bird lighting on it or a large lizartl running across the bottom will start a large quantity of the sand to sliding, which makes a noise resembling the vibration of telegraph wires with a hard wind blowing, but so much louder that it is often hoard at a distance of six or I seven miles, and is deafening to a per- j son standing within a short distance i of the sliding sand. A peculiar feature of the dune is j that it is not stationary, hut rolls slow- j lv eastward, the wind gathering it up j the woct irnl nnrl carm-inor it :?lon<? ! the ridge until it is again deposited at ! the eastern end. Mr. Munroe, a well- ; known Nevada surveyor, having heard of the rambling habits of this mam- j moth sand heap, quite a number of I years ago took careful bearings on it ; while sectionizing government lands in j that vicinity. Several years later he ! visited the place and lound that the j ] dune had moved something over a mile.?Reno (Xer.) Gazette.

It has been observed that when a box or barrel of clothing is wanted for a benevolent purpose, old hats are not lacking. An old dilapidated hat in a charity box is like a punched penny or a leather button in the contribution box?both help to fill and make a show, but neither are of much value. At the close of a season ?r several seasons hat-dealers have a collection of out-of-style hats that are disposed of at the buyer's price. Large quantities of old hats, old in style only, are sold to Southern dealers.

As to straw hats, their usefulness is ! at an end when the season closes, unless it be a costly Manila or Panama. Some are repressed and whitened, but such a process makes them brittle and they seem to soil sooner and easier than when new. Such a hat is an eyesore to a man. It is too good to put in a broken window, but not good enough to wear, and becomes in time a cat's cradle or an herb basket. btrange as it may seem, straw iiats were sold as late as two weeks ago. They are not all put to flight till snow flies. How the Doctor Got ETen. The late Dr. C., of Ashtabula, used in the early days to take long rides through the wilds of Ohio. One day he stopped at an old-fashioned tav- j era and called for dinner. Among the homespun dainties was a j glass of whisky beside his plate, which he did not trouble. After dinner, when paying his bill, the landlord said: " Twenty-five cents for whisky." " Which I did not touch, and never j do," said the doctor. " Well, it was there, and you could have had it," replied the landlord. The doctor said no more, paid his bill and left. Calling again not long after it was ! noticed that tlu doctor, upon sitting | down to dine, placed his medicine case | upon the table. However, nothing! was said at the time. When >10 went tn tijt Viic 'hill Tip 1 brought in $1 for medicine and advice, j " But I have had no medicine," said mine host. " Very well." replied the doctcr, " it was en the table, and you could have had it; and I also gave you good ad vicr all the while I was at table." The nonplussed host squared ac-1 counts. The Old .National Pike. The opening of the Redstone branch of the Pittsburg, Virginia and Charleston railroad marks a still further decline in the famous old National turn pike from Cumberland to Wheeling.! ' An act to regulate the laying out and j making a road from Cumberland, Md., to the State of Ohio," became a law in 1806, and the first stage coach carrying the United States mails over that route made its first trip on August 1, 1818. The distance was 130 miles,-and the total cost of constructing this great highway across the Alleghanies was ?1,700,000. Its traffic soon became enormous, and inns to a commodate the traveling public sprang up so thickly along its line that thev were : said to average two to a mile. The ! pike was admirably constructed, but j the heavy traffic which demonstrated I its necessity put it in need of frequent repairs, and the government finally turned it over to the States of Pennsylvania, Maryland and Ohio, and they established toil gates to pay for its maintenance. In 1S52, with the opening of the Pennsylvania railroad to Pittsburg and the Baltimore and Ohio to Wheeling, its decline began.
