' I I Mick aitd Yoxtnq Trbo.-There was a great deal taki last spring of the injury aone to voungapplo trees during la-nt winter by mice, ana the only rem edy that we have yet seen suggested is to Htatnp the snow firmly around the trees. This Is, however, not be lieved to be a remedy at all, and. we duubt if It is of much advantage, even should there be always snow to thus use. But oar method is a 4' remedy," and we havfe tried to Impress the tact upon our contemporaries for the past twenty-five years, but we should say, judging from their ignorance in answer ing^inv^crmg correspondents what they must do to save their trees, that it has received but little attentien in many quarters.' It Is simply to bandage up the stems of the trees with any cotton or woolen cloth, If of old muslin with two or three wrappings, letting the bandage go into the gronnd an inch or two, and six or eight inches above ground, and tie up. This should be renewed every autumn if necessary, until the trees are large enough not to be injured. Those who are in earnest for a remedy will try this and save their trees; but It will be too much trouble for others to devote a couple of hours to this labor annually, and they will rather run the risk with thfc mice. f' This method will keep out the borer also, as we have stated on several oc casions. Rabbits can gnaw, when the stems are small enough, two feet from the ground, and would require the bandage to be much higher. Tarring would help as a protection, but we have known in many cases the simple band age to be all-sufficient, and the tar to be injurious to the tree. But the best way to treat rabbits is to fted them. They never injure trees, except when snow covers the ground and they have nothing to live on. For this purpose cabbage, turnips, apples, or any vege table offal will answer, and especially hay, of which the rabbit is very fond.? Germantovm Ttlegraph.

Gloves were introduced intoEnglaud in the tenth century, but were only used by the wealthy people, and were considered very valuable. As New Year's gifts they were quite popular, or sometimes 44 glove-money " in place of thum. 44 Pin-money " originated in somewhat the same manner. Pins were so costly that money spent or laid aside for them was called "pin-money," and it became so important that it grew into the nnme of dower, which wan settled upon the lady at her marriage. Mr. Conger, the witty Congressman from Michigan, has a love story which i? quite remarkable. His present wife was his tirst love, but they quarrelled and each married. Twenty year* after ward he, a widower, was iu Congress, and she, a widow, sat in the gallery and listened to him speaking. It was the first time they hod met since they had their lovers' quarrel. She sent her card and invited him to call on her, which he promised to do if he might visit her as he used in the days of their youth. Her consent was easily ob tained the old love revived, and they Wjre soon married. The New England Farmer truthfully says that one of the most important re quirements in the manufacture of go?Kl butter is cleanliness. Everything in connection with it should !><? the in fection of neatness. In milking par ticularly every care securing cleanli ness should be practiced. We have known butter to be scut to dealers in Philadelphia, intended to sell at the highest price, that was so' permeated with cow hairs and other evidences of carelessness in milking and churning, that it was returned unsold to the neg ligent makers, and do doubt served as a wholesome lesson in the future.

She says that the young man of to-day is not the desirable husband that the j young man of fifty years ago was ; he is not so thouglilftil, sober, pains-tak ing and conscientious; ho lives at a club, has no love of home life nor de sire to build up character and reputa tion a* a man and citizen ; his ideas of life are bounded by the theatre and tho doings of his little set, and in many caacshis ambition is to own a racer anil bo on intimate terms with the ballet. Naturally mothers "shrink from iu trusting their daughters to such youths as these, even if they have the oppor tunity, and are better pleased to be stow them on older men?men who have sown their wild oats ; who know how little of real value there is in the temporary excitement of pleasure; have, perhaps, been married once, and have learned to value home and the guarantees it affords for permanent happiness." MACniNKKY KOIt T1IK HOUSE. We cannot refrain from again sug gesting that perhaps the mistress of the house ought to be supplied with a share of tho labor-saving machinery. A washing-machine, churn, butter worker, meat-cutter and sewing-ma chine are essential aids to a farmer's wife, and tho horse-power should be provided also to drive them. We do not intend to let this subject drop until it has had consideration from all the readers of this nai>er. The,housewife does more than her propePshare of the work on the farm, and the reason is be cause she iB not adequately supplied with lalmr-savlng machinery. Wher ever tho wife is willing to plod along In the old, toilsome way, without machin ery, we suppose she must bo permitted so to do until she takes her final rest, but there are many wearied women on the farm that would hail with joy the advent of such aids to her work as can easily be provided by every farmer. Her claims ought to have respectful and immediate consideration.?Farm Jour nal. KAHT1I FIIOM llOltNKO. In the last century a vessel came in to l^ondou Pocks with yellow fever, and the Captain wits suffering severely from It, and no one would go near the sufferers. I)r. FothergjII, however, wont on hoard, partly out of compas sion. and partly from bin desire to study a disease which was new to him, and he removed tho Captain to his own house, and finally succeeded In getting him through the fever. When the Captain recovered, he inquirod from the Doctor what he was in his debt, but Fothcr glll refused to receive any payment. The Captain then wished to know how he could compensate him for such kind ness, upon which tho I>octor replied that there was one thing he could do for him, If be were making a voyage to the East, and would pass through the Htraits of Macassar by Borneo, he should be ?lad if he would bring him back two barrels full of the earth of Borneo which the Captain promised to do. However, when ho reached the spot on his voyage out he thought of the ridicule lie must experience (Vom his crew in so strange an undertaking, and his heart failed him, and he sailed through the straits without fulfilling his intentiop. On his return by the same route the same thing happened through his fcar of the scoflfeof his crew. How ever, alter he had left the straits 200 or prohably 800 miles behind him, his conscience smote him with his iugrati tude and the nonfalflllment of his promise, and he put the ship's head about, returned to the spot, and filled tho barrels with the oarth. On his re turn he sent it to Dr. Fotherglll, who had the surlkce of a piece of ground thorough.jr burned, and he then sprink led the Borneo earth on it, when It is a rnown toot that there came upall kinds of new snd curious plants, said to be a iMwMW djy rent sprit, some geraniums, ami new flowers, wblcTi have KtfW quently spread throughout the gardens of Engl%g4,r-and IVoter. Scientific. The Telephone?Experiments with it in Submarimt Diving.?The Cincinnati Knq\?rtr savs: "Mr. John T. Guy re, the submarine diver, with the assist ance of Mr. J. V. 8hiras. solicitor for Bell's telephone, last week made some t \|H riiut nts with the telephone under water. Divers have always eagerly de sired a reliable uieans or communica tion with those above them. Various plans have been devised, and all aban doned, save the first aud long-tried one ?that of signalling by nulls at a life rope. One very successful plan, save of expense, was to interpose a reservoir large enough to admit a man in it be tween the diver and the air-pump. Those above spoke to a man in the reservoir, and be repeated it to the i diver. This plan onerated well. The sound was conveyed so distinctly that the man in the reservoir could hear the diver's hair rubbing against his helmet. This was abandoned on account of its expense. The telephone test was made in the river where the Covington Water Works pipes are beiug laid. The smaller telephone, the one used for receiving, was placed within the dress, lying upon the diver's chest and near his mouth. This enabled him to get his mouth near enough to talk, but was very unadvam tagcous for hearing. Insulated wires counected this instrument with the one al>ove. Mr. Guyre descended to a depth | of eighteen feetN Everything he said was distinctly heard above, lie found some difficulty in hearing what was said, as the air, passing out of the hel met with a hissing and bubbling noise, somewhat drowned the voice of the , telephone. This will be easily reme died by making a telephone of such spe cial shape, that it will be near the diver's car, and removing the air-valve to some point in the dress further from the ear. Mr. Guyre considers jits use a fixed fact, and is delighted in believ ing his perilous business will be made less dangerous. The laying of the Covington supply-pipe^has been a source of much trouble and expense to that city. Several plans have been tried. B. It. Martin, Chief Engineer, has, at lust, by his own plans, made a success ful laying, l'iles were driven anil upon them; were placed sills, and upou the sills was laid the pipe. The diver sawed olf the piles at the same level and bolted on the pipe. Those who have wagered that water would never be drawn through this new pipe will now have to pay tor their rashness." Jtamboo Paj>er.?The Consul-Gene ml at Havana has recently called attention to the enormous quantities of fibrous vegetables yvhieli the island of Cuba produces. Sane paper-makers have made experiments, it is said with suc cess, on the fibre of the bamboo, and on some of the creeping plants indige nous to the island. The bamboo has Itecu devoted to the service of litera ture as long as the papyrus itself. | More than two thousand years before the Christian era the conquerors of China signalized the .establishment of a new dynasty in the Flowery Land by a conflagration of the national records. These documents were written on plates of bamboo. They went back so far a* i to take us almost beyond the Flood ! The dynasties of Yu, Change aud Chea bad inscribed their records on bamboo plates for a thousand years before this barbarous destruction under the reign j of the Thsin kings. Books of this prim- j itive nature may be seen among the j curiosities in the King's library or the j British Museum. But to use the plant, i not as wood but as paper, to tear asunder the durable and jagged fibres i only that they may be felted together finer and closer?to supersede tho toil of the rhiffonuitr by that of the cane- | cutter?is a new application of an old material.

I'aper, in that wonderful island' em pire, serves purposes unknown in lit erary Europe. It is bard as jxtjAer macite, or soft and delicate as cambric. It is there used for manufactures as diversified as they are numerous. + Building an Ice limine.?In reply to the inquiry of a Byberry correspondent in the ()ctol>er number lor the best way to build an icehouse, we have the fol lowing from our friend Isaae Eyre, of Newtown, Bucks county: " The cheap est and best way to build an icehouse worth having is to dig an eighteen foot square hole in the ground, ten feet deep; wall it up with a (fry stone wall four or five feet above the level ground and Iwink up the earth that came out of the hole to the top of tho walls. Put on the top of the walls a good frame and put a good double pitch-shingle ro?f on; slat up the gnblo ends like a corn-crib, so as to allow free circulation of air over the ice, to carry oil' the dampness. Then you will 'have an icehouse that j will keep ice all the year, and one that will need no repairs for thirty or forty years. Ice is generally plenty 111 winter lime, and a large house can easily l>c filled when it is too cold to work at any other out-of-door work. The small icehouses that are built of wood above ground are generally empty the latter |?art of summer when the ice is most wanted. There is an icehouse 011 my place built as above described that has not been empty at this time of year for the past thirty-five years, and the re pairs on it have not cost two dollars in that time and nothing until this year." This we call common sense in solid chunks. We have other plans of ice houses which we intend to publish, but the al?>ve is sufficient. ''Whatever is worth doing at all, is worth doing well," is an axiom applicable to the building of an icehousc, and one that seems to be understood by our eorres pond cut.

LOUIS PAWN WOP. A spoclal despatch from St. Louis says : A tragic and thrilling encouuter took place in this city in the attempt of two police officers to arrest a noted Western outlaw named Frank E. Rande, for whose capture large rewards had been offered. The affair occurred at an early hour, in the central part of the city, and, as it resulted in the mortal wounding of one policeman and of the outlaw, was the cause of much public excitement. It appears that Rande, then a fugitive from justice for the murder of a man and his wife in Kan sas, passed through this city about the first of August last, and left his valise at the pawn shop of Edward Wright. No. 314 Vine street. A few days there after he was heard of at St. Elmo, 111., where he was caught in a robbery. He was pursued by a posse of citizens, one of whom was killed and three others wounded by Raude, who succeeded in making his escape. At the time he dropped his coat, however, and in the pocket was fouud the pawn ticket for nis valise left with Mr. Wright in St. Louis. This pawn ticket was taken charge of by the authorities and the pawnbroker instructed by the Chief of Police in this city to hold the valise until Rande should call for it, Htul then notify the police and have him arrested. Rande, accompanied by another fellow named James Morrison, called at the pawnshop and told Wright that he never received the valise aud had called to see if it was still there. Mr. Wright, in order to gain time, told him he would send to the express office and see why the T&llse had not becu forwarded, at the Ranie time whispering to hit} clerk, George Hess, who started out aud soon returned with Officers White and Ilet ferman. Upon the arrival of the policemen Officer White rushed upon Rande and caught him by the collar and endeav ored to hold him. Then the struggle began, and Rande, with his right hand, which was disengaged, reached behind him, and drawing a navy revolver shot at White, the ball taking eflect in his rigjht leg, cutting the femoral artery. W hite soon fell from loss of blood. At this juncture the clerk aud the pawn broker, who had been warned of the desperate character of the man they had to deal with, artned themselves, and Iless, who was behind the counter -watching his opportunity, tired and shot Rande in the leg. In the meantime, Wright, who was outside the counter, kept his pistol leveled at the head of Morrison, and told him that if he moved he wasadcad man. This kept Morrison still. Finally, as the tight waxed warmer, Wright took a shot at Rande, the ball entering his body and bringing him down. Officer Iletlerman had also struck Hande several blows, and the fellow was soon quieted. />>?. Mrtrft/n Paint;'* W cttUar H id.

(ivory c Mdsh i ay ton, A cheerful view of Washington is given in a story once told l?y Mrs. Mad ison to a little girl, who now repeats it in Li/tfriHcntt. "One day'in Philadel phia/' said Mistress Dolly Madison. I was sitting in ni\ parlor with a very dear friend, Mrs. It. IS. Iwhen iii walked Payne Tmld (her son), dressed in mv calico lied-gown. While we were laughing at the figure he cut, the serv ant threw open llit* door aud an nounced (icncral and Mrs. Washington. What to do with that dreadful Imv I didn't know. lie could not liice the President in that garh. Neither could he leave the room without meeting them, lor the door they wen entering was the only one. I made him crawl quickly under a low, broad settee on which 1 was sitting. I had just time to arrange the <liu|Hir wlu n the Wash ington* entered. After the courtly greeting and the usual compliments of the season, there came from under the settee a heavy sigh, which evidently attracted the general's notice. 11.?w ever, I only talked and laughed a little louder, hoping to divert his attention, when?oh, inc !?there came an outcry and a kick that could not l>e ignored. So I stooped down and dragged Payne out by the leg. (Jencral Washington's dignity left him for once. Laugh! Why, he fairly rtiarcd ! He nearly went into convulsions. The sight of that hoy in that gown, all so unex pected, coming wrong end first from under my scat?it was too much." Jliuithm. , We have another evidence of the im itative eeuius of the Chinese. A Chi naman by the very common name of Chung, who worked on a farm m>ar the mission, in Los Angeles county, C'al., earned wages that amounted to #151. Ills employer gave him a check intended to cover the sum, but in making it out ho wrote the figures #131. Afterward ho changed the check so as to read prop erly, and wrote on the back of It saying that it had l>eon raided to $151. Chung lajgan whore his employer had left oft' and raised the figures to #951. Then he presented the check at the bank, drow the money and speedily departed for a locality unannounced and un known, as any white man would have done.?Eureka [Nev.) Republican.
