The instalments of the French Indem-
nifty now due, are probably before this
time on their way to the United States, in
specie. Each instalment, after deducting
100000 francs for French claims on the
United States, will amount to, 3916,666
francs. Four instalments, out of six, we
believe are now due. Consequently the
amount to be received at this time is 49,
o66,664 francs, or about S3,oOO,00O
The steamboat Daniel Webster arrived
at Buffalo on the evening of the 9th of

CLEANSE YOUR CELLARs.-If YOU
consider good health an object worth your
attention, you will be careful not to breathe
the gases which emanate from putrefac-
ton, either those which are caused by the
decomposition of vegetable or of animal
substances. Rotting or rotten potatoes,
cabbages, turnips and other vegetables, as
we'll as beef brine, pork brine, and tainted
meats Of any sort, are often unsupported
causes of bilious or typhus fevers, and
should, therefore, be removed in season to
the compost bed and covered with earth,
or otherwise disposed Of, so that they NAV
not annoy the senses, nor poison the air,
in and about farmers premises. We
have been assured by physicians of emf
hence, that they have reason for believing
that bilious or typhus fevers, of malig-
nant or fatal kind, have often originated
from sources of this description.-N E.
Farmer
Health Of Hop Groacers.-Thosc who
are habitually engaged in hop growing
have been so uniformly in good health, as
to attract the attention of medical phiIoso-
pliers. In the farming districts, so called
in Eng gland, in which from three to four
thousand people are exclusively EMPLOYED
IN the various preparations of hops, there
has been but one death for long PERIOD
f Formerly the business was deemed un-
healthy, and Mr. Ellis, a very humane
gentleman, engaged at his own personal
expense, the services of physician to be
constantly in attendance at East Farley,
another famous hop raising place. So
far as observation has been in the U. States,
an equal share of good health has been
meted out to all grades ofhop-growers.

I "GOING TOO FAST AND TOO FAR
The ninth annual report of the mana
gers OF the Female Missionary Society of
! the first Baptist church, in Philadelphia,
! states that they have continued to employ
their faithful Missionary, Benjamin r.
4 Loxley, and that his station is now in a
= prosperous state. THE temperance soci-
ETY. formed in this place." say they, has
= been the means in the hand of God of do
ing much good We usually find that
the first in the reform is the abandon
# ing Of all Intoxicating drinks"
q This going too fast, and too far" is
then, according to the testimony of these
worry ladies of Philadel phia but coming
.. up to that ground where men are likely
to see the entrance Of the strait and mar
row path which conducts to peace, hap
piness and honor here, and to eternal fell
city hereafter. If the first step in reform
. is, as they testify, and as the faithful mes
~ sengers Of the cross have in so many in
% stances found, the abandoning all intoxi
- eating drinks, how shall we understaa
in those who say that to adopt and advocat
" a pledge Of such abstinence IS going to
fast and too far?-Temperance RecOrde1
