Cricketans. In the infancy of cricket there were 1no stumps at all; instead of wickets, the early players out in the turf two Oiroular holes, and the batsman was put out In running, not, as now, by putting down a wicket, but by the ball Weing popped into this hole (whence "popping crease," says Mr. Pycroft) before the point of the bat was ground ed in it. It ib most probable that orig inally the single stump was placed at the hole to point it out to che bowler and fielders, very much as the "jags,' ubed for this purpose at the holes in goll. In process of time the frequent dlBputes as to whether bat or ball reached this first, as well as injuries received in the unseemly tuseles, would naturally suggest that the beacon stump should be made more useful, and that the runner should be out if this were displaced, as well as by holding the ball. It Is uncertain when the second stump was added, but it was a very obvious step from a single stump to one on each side of the old block hole. In 1700 we find Mr. Gale's "skeleton hurdle" only a foot high, though two feet wide. There was no middle stump till, in a match of the Hambletonian Club, in 1755, it was ob se ved that at acritical part of the game the ball went three times between the stumps without knocking off the ball; then a third stump was added to the di mensions of the wicket, till, in 1817, it attained to the size at which it has eyer since remained. In 1797 tihe Earl of Winchester, a good cricketer and great supporter of the game, attempted to iII troduce a fourth stump, that "the game might be thus rendered shorter by eas ier bowling out;" but nothing came of ti except oi one memorable occasion when, in July, 1837, Mr. Ward propbscd as a method of equalizing the Gentle men and Players, that the former should defend wickets (f 27 by 8 Inches, the latter four sturns 30 by 12. This was called the "Barn-door Match," or "Ward's Folly," and, notwithstanding the great odds against them, the Play era won in a single inning by ten runs. Undoubtedly the greatest and nuost pregnant Innovation in cricket wins the introduction of round-arm bowling. Tle credit for its invention appears jo be due to Ton Walker, a prulossionlal of the old Hambletonlan Club; but his "throwing" wins pronounced unfiair, and was suppressed and forgottein, till, about a quarter of in century afterward, it was again Introdueod by Mr. Johin Willes, a Kentish amateur, who, it was said, learnd tine delivery from his sis ter, who used to throw the ball at imH in practice. Mr. Willes' bowling ilg ured in one or two great matches, 1nota bly in one o July 20, 1807, thirteen of All England against twenty-three of Kent, for a thousand gulineats, oin Pei enden Heath. Kent won by 162 runs, and Wilson's bowling greatly helped to bring this about. As Nvit;i Toin Walker, so with Mr. Willes. IfN and his bowling "were frequnotly barred Iln making a matoh," says Mr. Pycroft, "and lie played sometinnes anid much uproar anid confusion. Still, lhe would persevere till thne rIng c10osed in oan tine players; tine stumnps wecre lawlessly pulled up), and all camne to a stand still.'' It was not till Mr. Kanighnt, of' Alton, espoused the cause of rounnd-arnA bowling in 1826, that it becamne a per mnanenit instutioni, at'ter much coitro versy thaougha, and inc litt,le ridieule of the "throwing" style.

Waiting for Navagaion to JRooen, A cruel joke was recointly played in 9hicago uponi a special revenue agent, sho had come up from Florktja on a ipecial tour of inspection through the Marquette district of Lake Superior.

AGiIOULTUR , UN]DRDRAINON WITE STONX.-The best time to construct underdralns is In the spring- of the year when the laud is soft. When made ot stone, they not only last for all time, but carry oir any surface water much sooner tqan tile. In cutting a ditch for a drain, the most expeditious way is to first rutn a furrow with a two horse plough, as straight as possible, where drain is to be, and on this first furrow backfurrow another of equal width. Then, after shovelling to one side the earth of which this double furrow is composed, repeat the ploughing and shovelling by attaching a short chain between the doubletree and clovIs, to increase the distance between the two, and thus cause the plough to run the required depth. By this means, I. e., is, 0y re peated ploughing and shovelling out, a depth of from fifteen to twenty in ches may be obtained, and of the prop er width the drain Is to be. This much done, hitch the two horses, one in front of the other (taudem fashion), to a sin gle-coulter plough, with which rip up the sub-soll and throw out as before repeating the operation until the prop er depth ;s had. In inishing the bot tom of the intended drain, care should be taken to have it of uniform smooth ness throughout Its entire length, on ly sufloiently inclining towards the mouth to cause the water to flow with equal freedom through every part of the drain; otherwise little depressions will be left in the bottom of the drain, in which sediment will accumulate to such an extent as to obstruct the free passage of the water, - and thus choke up the drain and render it useless. Tie next thing then is to prepare the stone ior constructing the drain--should be broken into pieces not larger than goose eggs, the sualler ones to take their place in the bottom of the drain and the larger ones to be thrown in promiscuously until to within a loot or so of the surface, and, covering the same with a low leaves from the woods to Aill the balance of the drain with the excavated earth. Where low pla ces occur in a field, on which water is Inclined to stand so as to interfere with their cultivation, and for which no outlet can he conveniently had by means of a drain, a very good substi tute will be found by digging a hole through the clay, somue three or four feet in diamneter, filling the same wiLh stone to within a few Inches of the top, and covering with leaves and earth as above directed. By thistmeans the wa ter will find a ready outlet and perfect irainage will be secured. A WASlI FOR FUIrr TnEES-Inects atid iniiduws, nijurious to the leaves of seedlings and grafts, can be kept in subjection or destroyed by a free use of a combination of lime and sulphur. Tiake of quick or unslacked lime four parts, antId of common flowers of sulphur one part (four pounds of sulphur to one peck of litne); break up the lime in small bits, then, mixing the sulphur with it In a thick vessel ( ron is the best) pour oi them enough boiling water to slack tne lime to powder, cover the ves sel close as soonl as the water i8 poured on. This makes also a most excellent whitewash for orohard trees, and is very uset ul asa preventive of bligh t oi pear trees, to cover the woods In a form of a paste when cutting away deceased parts; also for coating the trees in April. it may be considered as the one specilie for many noxious insects and mildew in the orchard and nurse ry ; its materials should be quite fresh as it wotild In tine become sulphate of lime and so lose its potency. Wherev er dusting with lime is spoken of this should be used. Thlis preparation should be sp)rlnkled over the young planit as sooni as, or before, anty trouble from aphides, thrlps or mildew occurs, early In the morning while the dew Is on trees. This lime of sulphur comnbi nation is destructive to these' pests in this way :First, by giving of sulphuric acid gas, which is deadly poison to mi ntute lile, both animnal v.nd fuangold ; and the lime destroys by contact the same things, besides its presence is noxious to them ; neit.her is It injurious to conmmon vegetable life, except in ex cess, uniless tihe lime to the follage or evergraeena. MATEnIAI.a c FMR AILCHINo.-Profes sor W. J. .Bkal, of the Mtichigan agri-1 cultural college, giyes the results of several experiments to determine the best mnaeris to inmuIlh atraw berries and other plant',, and arrives at the conclusion that the best is chopped straw, ile flids a thick coatof manure excellent, for bedding planits. .lie tried1 old clover hay, and had a line crop of clover plants to kill the next spring.

Sonme urs Inclined to t,hink that the pilgrIm's stafiY, the bis hop's crozier, thie dir i tm-imajor's gorge onis mace and the usher's wand have a common origin wIth the wvalking stick ; at least, we know the change of habit, and that niost uniaccoun table change of4 fashion, have in our time worked some curlous results; tile vat ious matorials called into use are alone suflicient to cause surprise. Walking sticks have been made of tortoise shell, the bones or verteb,rae of the shark, the tusks of tile rinIce)ros, amnd wvod of every,eon elvablearmety, and lately one was exhibited mtade entirely of champagne corks, wvithi a stout wire passed through them. 'Thle handles have many nmore sources to boast, as there are many mtaterials not large enough to make whole sticks, such for instance as the teeth of the giraffe, the walrus, the elephant; anId, in fact, most large teeth, and elk horns are useful for the pur pose. It is a remarkable fact that we. ment are ael 1om emaplcod at st,ick making, and boys but little, there be ing as much knowledge and skill re quired for tihe various processes that men are chiefly emtployed. It is also singular that steamn power is not in tse to any large extent; machinery has the power of turning out large quantitIes of goods all alike, bait can not vary them. There must not be two alike, and if nature is humored, as it is by skill'd workmajp, there cannuot be;| it will readily Lo s.en that a fixed| method cannot be applied to all, as each stick must, receive treatment necn1liar to Itself.. How TO MAKZ AND UsX GzU. hreak the glue'up sn0all, put it loto an Iroh kettle, cover the glue with water. and allow it to 'mk twelvo hours; after soaking, boil until done. Then pour it into an air-tight box; leave the cover off until cold, then cover up tight. As glue is required, out out a portion and melt it in the usual way. Expose no more of the made glue to the atmtos phere fore any length ot time than is necessary, as the atmosphere is very destructive to ma,le glue. All the glue received from the factory requires the addition of water before it will melt properly, and every addition of water (while the glue is fresh made) will, up to a certain point, increase its adhes iveness and elasticity. Some glues will bear more water than usually falls to their share, and that, too, with a greater increase in the quality of the work. For glue to be properly efgeo tive, it requires to penetrate the pores of the wood, and the more a body of glue penetrates the wood, the more substantial the joint will remain. Glues that take the longest to dry are to be preferred to those that dry quick, the slow-drying glues being always the strongest, other things being equal. Never heat made glue in a pot that is subjected to the direct heat of the tire or lump. All such methods of heating, glue cannot be condemned iII terms too severe. Do -not use thick glue f4,r oints or veneering. In all cases work it well Into the wood in a similar man ner to what painters do with paint. Glue both surfaces of your work, ex cepting in the case of veneering. Never glue upon hot wood, or use hot cauls to veheer with, as the -hot wood will absorb all the water in the glue too suddenly, and leave only a very little residue, with no adhesiveness in it whatever.

TiE TcET.U AND DisAsi.-A full set uf teeth is necessary to proper mastica tion. Digestion largely depends upon mastication, as mastication mixes the food with saliva-Itself a digestive fluid-and thoroughly separates the particles so that the other digestive fluids-the gastric Juice, the bile and the intestinal fluid-may readily act on them. Decayed teeth All thein-breath ed air with putrid particles. Bad teeth often cause bolls, collections of hard ened wax In the ear, ringing of. the ears, and deafness In vat lous degree . A large amount of distress, both inthe teeth ani in the ear, Is frequently oc 01nsioned by the (lecay of the first tooth of the permanet. t set-the sixth grinder (molar.)-So strong is the sympathetie oonnection between the teeth and the ears, that the condition of the former greatly affects the latter, esqlecially In ohildhood, the period of marked nilam mnatory tendency In the various glands of the mouth. Dr. Samiuel Sexton has made the facts a special study, with the aid of the auroscope-the new Instru nent for the exploration of the 'ear.

Dr. Sexton says further that persons are injitrod in health by the amalgam fillings, the incroury which enteri 1irgely into lhen being gradually set tree. Still oiore serious results follow when plates -aspecially vulcanime-are worn over l.eenseid fangs. causing inflamed p)ala es >r gums,collections of Lartar, and puru lent secretions.

Diagnoss by' the lcrophone.-The principle of the microphone in medical and surgical diagnosis has recently been lectured upon by Sir- Henry Thompson, London. He showed how a small acousti3 wave is converted by it into a large electrical vibration, which is reconverted into sound at the diaphragm of the telephone, where It is received by the ear of the operator. Thus, In the case ot stone in the blad der, the minute wave transmitted through the sound on its Impact wit' a very small stone Is so magnified that the operator is enabled to determine with certainly on the presence of the smallest stone.or particle of stone or other foreign substAnce. These expe ,riments, It apkears, were conducted with a couple or steel sounds, each fit ted with the microphone, and an arti ficial bladder, in which was concealed, In turbid fluid, a naturally formed uvio acid stone, about as large as a pea.

Xrecently published German work gives some interesting details of the precau tions taken to preserve the health of the workmen in a large minnufactory of coal-tar coloring materials, on the river Main, where more than a thon sand workmen are employed. The men are not only requested but practi cally required to spend twenty-five minutes a day in the bath and this time is reckoned as a portion of the working hours. Bath tubs ot special construction are provided for the use of those engaged in the violet and green rooms, while all the workmen actually occupied with colors receive oloan suits of clothes every week from the pro prietors. These statements certainly indicate tkat noxious substances may easily find their way into the coal tar c9lors now so extensively employed for dyeing dress fabrics, andi that the greatest care in the manufac ture of the coloring material is es sentil.
