A double course of wet mu’ck will weigh, when applied, about 150 pounds to the aqunxe foot. A Bill) 12:20 feet would xequire 400 bushels.

This loan of weight nave: one third of the labor when the silo in uncovered. The increase of fertility by absorbing the liquid xnauuwu-ivinir-dried muck is a more important matter, in my judg- ment. Evidently the air-dried muck can re- abaoib all the moisture it has lost. If a bushel loses 30 pounds, it can re-absorb under the cows :50 pounds in the form of urine. This contains .7 of one per cent. of ammonia; .5 per cent. of potash; and no phosphoric acid. That 30 pounds‘ would therefore represent 21-100 of 3.‘ pound of ammonia; 15-100 of potash. But the muck itself is a crude fertilizer made available for present use by weather- ing on the silo and the action of the urine. Estimates differ. concerning its value, chiefly because of wide differences in its quality. Mine, as analyzed by Prof. Geo. 11. Cook, of the New Jersey Experiment Station, with 62 per cent of water, gave 2.27 per cent. of ammonia. By this low average a bushel (90 lbs.) of cm Inn ..t - u, ...... .m. .._._D. _ ,, \ , we: muck will approximate 32-100 of a pound of ammonia; making a. total of about half a pound of ammonia and one- aixth of a pound of potash, having acom- mercinl value of not less than 10 cents; or $40 fur the 400 busheln referred to above, an amount which will cover all the cost of handling from the pit tn the silo. and the field. A rich, deep. welbdrained loam is un- doubtedly the best soil for the raspberry. It is sooner injured by excessive moisture than almost uny other fruit, and, in planting, un elevated location should, if possible, always be selected.

Between the rows Irish potatoes may be profitably planted the first season. Red varieties of the Antwerp type should be planted five feet apart, with plants two feet from each other in the row. Fall planting is recommended by a majority of growers, but my experience causes me to believe that the tips of black caps can be most successfully transplanted early in‘ spring. Mellow earth should be placed on the plants to allow the young shoots to reach the surface without difl‘icnlty. If properly pruned, the raspberry needs no artificial support. Plants of red or black varieties, should, when two feet high, have the terminal bud nipped for the purpose of forcing a lateral growth, and thereby increasing the productiveness of the plant. Such shoots generally grow in a circle, and balance the plants when Weighed with fruit. As all shoots do not begin to grow st the same time, re- peated nipping, during the growing mun will be found necessary. Black caps are propagated from tips of the branches, that should be covered with earth curly in September to enable them to take root. About the end of October they should be taken up; and “heeled in" on high ground, or s!- lowod m rennin whore grown until spring, if not liable to be lifted by frost. All varieties that produce suckers may be propagated from root cuttings, treated in precisely the same manner as root‘ cut- tings of the blackberry. All deed wood should be removed as soon as convenient after fruiting termimtes. This udviceulso applies to the blackberry, and is prompt- red by thonlicf that a deed Hbrsgqh lugoly taxes the vitality of living roots.

The Channel islands, and particularly Jersey, possess much interest to the stranger, but the crowning glory of Jersey is the beauty of her women, writes a cor- respondent. For general comelinesa they would readily be awarded a prize in any competition of feminine grace. Rare, creamy complexions, that would put the bloom on the peach to blush, figures made graceful and sinewy by bodily toil, with rather strongly cut features, eyes like aloes, and lustrous dark hair, the girls met on the streets of St. Helier's seem to the stranger the personification of woman- ‘ ly independence, beauty, and maidenly reserve. The soft white mists that wrap the island every night from sundown to, sunrise give them carnation checks. The toil that brings with it the active, healthy body is due to causes which will enlist on the side of these women the sympathies of true manhood. It is because of the woeful dearth of men in Jersey that the women do all the work. Where you meet one man in these tortuous streets of St. Helier's you meet ten women. _ 1. Out among the green farms this dis- proportion of the sexes is even more painfully apparent. The heavy, ungain- ly carts on the country roads are almost without exception driven by women, and handsome women, too. Groups of cherry- cheeked girls may be seen in the wayside orchards, some picking apples from the trees. others straining at the rude cider presses. The little fields, with their luxuriant growth of turnips, cabbages, and rutabsgss, all are tended by women, while the blooming flowers in the house- yards show in their rich variety the evi- dence of women's care and attention. ‘Noue but women are to be seen in the big public market of St. Helier'sâ€"wo- men buying and women selling. What men you see are either too young or too old and decrepit, boys who have not start- ed out in life, or old sea captains who have come home to end their days, smell- ing of salt and full of reminiscences of stormy voyages to Buenos Ayres, to Australia, or through the China seas.

Herr Barkowsky, one of the singers in the German opera at Prague, was recent- ly with his wife in a. restaurant when the latter suddenly rushed into a neighboring ‘ room and, seizing a table-knife, stabbed herself in the heart. Death was instan- tsneous. The Japanese government has request- ed the police department of Berlin to allow a number of its officials to enter the Japanese service for the purpose of reorganizing the police system of Yeddo. Four officials have already volunteered to \ undertake this work. A terrible tragedy is reported from the district of Landakron, in Moravia, where two peasants both stabbed their wives to death. A neighbor, who hastened to the assistance of the unfortunate women, ”mm-Ava v- waa also killed by the murderers, who immediately afterward committed sui~ cide.

Among the numerous anti-cholera specifics recently received by the French Academy of Sciences and Medicine is one recommending that an immense canopy should be suspended over Paris, or any town in danger, so as to intercept such rays of the sun as are conductive to the spread of the disease.

Lord Granville is about to erect a very ‘ interesting monument at Ebb’s Fleet, ‘ near Pegwell bay, in commemoration of ‘ the landing of St. Augustine. The memo- rial will consist of a reproduction of the famous Saxon crosses at Sandbach, near Crewe, and will be twelve feet in height. The west front will represent the landing of St. Augustine, and on the encircled crosses are to be the emblems of the evangelists. On the paneled shaft below will be represented the annunciation, the ‘ virgin and child, the crucifixion, and the transfiguration. On the north side are statues of the twelve apostles, and on the south and east sides a series of four- teen tigures of early Christian martyrs ‘ with their emblems. The death is announced of Mr. James Thomson, of Stonehaven, England, in his 90th year. He was born in the parish of Fordoun, and for services ren- dered before the battle of Waterloo the government granted Thomson some years ago an honorarium from the funds of Greenwich hospital. He accompanied Napoleon Bonaparte to Elba in 1814, and stood sentry over him at Ponto Ferrajo. He partook in the reward Napoleon gave to the men of the Royal marines who served on board the Un- daunted. Thomson was present at the siege of Toulon and in the operations against Murat in Italy, and he also serv- ed in the Ionian islands and in Majorca. He entered the harbor of Toulon with Charles Napier after the peace, when the fleet was fired upon by the Chateaud’lf. A nor-Blooded Corsican Overcome with Dzmculty. There should be a rule to exclude Cor- sicans from the police.

Benelotti, who lately nearly caused a serious riot near the Hotel de Ville, is from Ajaccio. One night about 10 o’clock, three young fellows, who are shortly to begin their term of military service, were walking abreast decked out with tricolor-ed ribbons and, as is usual on such an occasion, sing- ing the “Marseillaise,” Benelotti, who was passing, was accidentally jostled. He ordered them to stop their singing, and, they not obeying, went to arrest them. A rrowd gathered. The Corsican when the young men asked in what had they inadvertently offended, drew his sword. .

Other police agents came up, and seeing a com- rade in danger, protected him without enquiring what the row was about. Bene- lotti rendered their situation dangerous by trying to burst through the line they formed, and slash and fire. They kept pushing him back toward the Lauban barracks; an approaching which some re- publican guards came to their assistance and disarmed the Corsican policeman, ' who resisted violently. Some officers wrested the revolver from him as he was ' about to discharge it. A spectator tells ' me that he never saw a more excited mob than the one which by this time filled the square in front of the barracks. They wanted to fling Benelotti into the Seine, and when he was taken by the guards into the barracks prepared to force the door. Pavements were torn up in the neighbor- ing streets to use as missiles. A gendarme 11:5 nhlhvw uv n... W..<.---.-_v V was badly wounded. Arrests were made and the arrested persons were rescued. However, the anger soon abated, and in pursuance of the advice given by some persons of the neighborhood, the crowd dupersed quietly.

The stratum of salt having been once pierced a saturated solution of the Isaline matter frequently rises in the boring to within eighty feet of the surface. This, however, can not always be depended uponâ€"and here centre the increased difficulty and expense. When a. few dozen feet have been drilled, a six or eight inch iron pipe is inserted as a “casing.” Inside of this a two inch pipe. also of iron, is placed. The “casing head" has two openings, one for the en- trance of pure water from a neighboring spring into the larger pipe, at the lower end of which it becomes saturated with saline matter; the other at the end of the smaller pipe. to allow the expulsion of the brine. Of course. the wells be- come foul or leaky at times. and then resort is had to torpedoes of ultra-glycer- ine, which are sent down to the bottom of the “casing." and after them is sent an iron weight which secures the explosion. The rusting of the “casing" is the great enemy of the salt Worker ; and, when his engine can not lift the mass of rusted iron, a“knifo" cuts the rusted metal. and the engine tears it away piecemeal. But the salt wells are exempt from any danger of taking fire; and it is never necessary, as in the me of oil wells, to shoot 03' the “casing head" with s can- non ball. “ Whtt in the heaviest. thing in the world I" asked onng Shuply of Mn.

The strange stories of his early adventures Would till a volume. At one time when going down a mountain near Lewiaton with no less a personage than General Scott as a pas senger, the brakes gave way and the coach came on the heels of the wheel horses. The only remedy was to whip the leaders to a gallop. Gaining addi- ‘ tional momentum with each revolution of x the wheels the coach swayed and pitched down the mountain side into the streets of Lewiston. Straight ahead at the foot of the steep hill flowed the Niagara river, towards which the four horses dashed, ap- parently to certain death. Yet the firm hand never relaxed its hold nor the clear brain its conception of what must be done e..-... ..â€" _-..-vr_.-__ V iu;the emergency. On dashed the horses ‘ until the. narrow deck was reached on the river bank, when by a masterly exhibi- tion of nerve and daring, the coach was turned in scarce its own length and the horses brought to a stand still before the pale lookers on could realize what had oc- cured. A purse was raised by General Scott and presented to Mr. Haskell with high compliments for his skill and brav- ”1’. Notwithstanding all his strength and robust constitution the strain of continu- ous work and exposure proved too much for Mr. Haskell's constitution. The con- stant jolting of the coach and the neces- sarily cramped position in which he was obliged to sit, contributed to this end, ‘ and at times he was obliged to abandon driving altogether. Speaking of this period he said: “ I found it almost impossible to sleep at night; my appetite left me entirely and l I had a. tired feeling which 1 never knew before and could not account for.” “ Did you give up driving entirely '1” “No. I tried to keep up but it was only with the greatest effort.

The sediment vanished; my appetite returned, and I am now well and good for twenty more years, wholly through the aid of Warner‘s Safe Cure that has done wonders for me as well as {or {nary others.” 1 Mr. Haskell's experience is repeated every day in thelives of thousands of Ameri- can men and women. An unknown evil is undermining the existence of an in- numerable number who do not realize the danger they are in until health has en- tirely departed and death perhaps stare; them in the face. To neglect; such im- portant matters is like drifting iuthe cur- rent of Niagara above the Falls. In view of the impending sale of a por- tion of the French crown jewels, the fol- lowing particulars will be read with in- terest: When they were valued just af- ter the revolution of 1789, they were es- timated at $4,200,000. and they consisted of 7,482 diamonds, 500 pearls, 2‘20 rubies, 150 emeralds,‘134 sapphires, 71 topazes, 8 garnets, and 3 mncihysts. They were stolen from the Treasury, in which they‘ had been deposited, and only a very small , portion recovered, but the purchases made by Napoleon and the ,Bourbon Kings brought the total of the crown jew- els up to $4,400,000 when they were val- ued in 1832. \Vhen a fresh inventory was taken in 1875 it was found that the crown jewels consisted of 77,486 stones, weighing over 10,000 carats, and a part of these wrll shortly be sold. It is a mis- take, however, to suppose that all the objects of historical interest will be re- served, for many of the jewels which he- longed to the Duches‘ Anne of Brittany, and became an appanage oi_the 1~rench crown when she married Charles V111,, are to be disposed of, as also several arti- cles bequeathed by Cardinal Richelieu. There are twenty-five thousand beer shops in Paris at the present time, and the money spent daily for that beverage alone is $250,000. The importation of Bavarian beer into Paris has increased to such large proportions this seamen that the Eastern Railway has been obliged to provide special facilities for in: transpor- ration between Munich nnd Paris. run- ning what are called special beer trains. These trains, which at first only rim olnce IIIUDU bill-Illa, Iv .--v.â€" â€"_ .â€"_ V, , v a. week, now run daily, except. Sunday, covering the trip from Straaburg in Paris in nineteen hours. Each train carries on an average fifty-three thuusnnd gulluna of beer. which are promptly delivered 10 the importers, and by them distributed among their customers, the restaurants and beer saloons; The Parting Promise. “Promise me One thing," she and, placing her a’rms about hm neck as he stood on the platform looking up the track for the train. “Anything, any- thing. my Inge] remnant.
