IMITATION RUSSIA SHEET IRoN.-A
specimen of this successful imitation OF
a foreign article the manufacture of
which has heretofore been jealousy kept
secret by the Russon government-has
been left at the counting-room Of the Bal
timore American. 1t is made in Penn
sylvania, and purposely glazed only on
one side. 1t is stated in that Journal
that both sides can be glazed ifrequired,
but, as only one side shows when man
ufactured, it answers every purpose to
glaze but one side, and the saving of
tire fourthhs of a cent per h. in cost
This iron, we learn, can be afforded at
about 63 per cent, or $l07 40 per ton
less than the lowest average price ofthe
foreign full-gIazed article, of the same
thickness :; to which, in appearance, it
very nearly approaches. Being man
uiactured with great care, from the best
of blooms, it will fully compare with the
foreign in maleability and toughncss,
Stoves made of this iron have been in
use for two years, and look as well as
when first made up, and the manufacture
has since been very much improved,

A RATHER QUEER MovEMENT.--On
Wednesday Judge Parsons, of Phladel-
phia, had a writ served on him, as he
entered the court, for smoking segars in
the public streets. The case was to be
heard before the alderman yesterday.
David +. johnson, the attorney general
was the witness called to support The
charge. The Judge is notorious for his
rigid adherence to the law and his rath-
er vindictive spirit in enforcing it, and
the facts suggested the prosecution. His
honor, it is said, is in the habit Of smok-
ing such horrd cigars that the COM
plainant could not overlook the Gelin-
quency.--P0rUand american.

CATHEDRAL MUSIC.

Then swelled the organ; up thro' choir and nave
The music rembled with an inward thrill
OF bliss at its own grandeur wave on wave
Its flood of mellow thunder rose, until
The hushed air shivered with the throb it gave,
Then, posing for moment it stood STILL
And sank and rose again, to burst in spray
That wandered into silence far away.
Like to mighty heart the music seemed,
That yearns with melodies il cannot speak,
Until, in grand despair of what it dreamed,
In the agony of effort it doth break,
Yet triumphs breaking, for it rushed and streaned
And wantoned in its might, as when a lake
Long pent among the mountains burst its walls,
And IN one crowding gush leaps forth and falls.
Deeper and deeper shudders shook the air
As the huge bass kept gathering heavily,
Like thunder when it rouses in its lair
And W it'll its hoarse growl shakes the low hung sky
1t grew up like a darkness every where,
Filling the vast Ca,hedral-suddenly,
From the dense mass boys clear treble broke
Like tightening and the full toned choir awoke.
Thro' gorgeous windows shone the sun aslant,
trimming the church with gold and purple mist
Meet atmosphere to bosom that rich chant,
Where fifty voices in strand did twist
Their varcoored tones and left want
To the delighted soul, which sank abyssed
In the music cloud, while far below,
The organ heaved its surges to and fro.

count IF the Hon. Daniel Webster's farm a,

"There is an incident connected with Mr..
Wcbstcr's purchase of Mr.. WelIes, which
shows that the farmer of Marshfeld knows
how to select good cattle. lie called on
Mr.. Weles, and inquired of him what he
would ask for one of his cows, to be selected
by Mr.. Webster, and was Informed the price.
lie went to the stable where large number
OF cows were kept, and called for pail. The
attendants were very much amazed at this
question, and watched with interest the ope-
rallons OF the man who had delighted thou
sands with the exhibition of his talents. He
began milking the cows, aud passed on from
one to another, until he approached the mos,
valuable Of the herd. The owner became
somewhat excited at the manner of testing
his cows. Mr.. Webster soon sat down by
the most valuable COW, and commenced try
ing her milking qualities, and after milking
short time, says, stills cow wiH do tor
me-" You can have her." said the owner,
but II you ever want to purchase another
COW OF me, think shall have something

STORY OF VICISSITUDE.

In the New York ASYLUM for the Relief Of
Respectable Aged Females" there is Mrs.
F., in the elghiy.hird year of her age, the vi
cissitudes OF whose life have been somewhat re-
markable. Born Of respectable parents in East
Chester, in early life she married British Off
Ger, of opuent family. At the time of Corn
wallis surrender in 1871, her husband was
made prisoner. Dismissed on parole, he and
his young wife returned TO Europe. aud spent
their time in fashionable gaty til the close OF
the war AT this time in the fu!iilment of
promise he had made previous To marriage, he
returned to settle in this country Arriving in
Phlladelqh they were received and entertain
ei for several weeks by Lady Pemberton.-
Subsequently, at the solicitation of the widow
of Gen. Montgomery, whose gallant husband
had been nearly connected with Mrs, (his
brother having marritd Mrs. F.'s sister,) they
settled on Livingston manor. There, about
four years afterwards, Mr.. +. died, leaving Mrs.
/. with three children.
About this time, news arrived of the sale Of
an estate in Surnam, in winch Mr.. L. was in
teresled, for Ei2,000 sterling, and that the
avails were waiting HIM in the hhrds nf an agent
in Holland. Mrs. +. accompanied by her friend,
Mrs. Montgomery, sailed for Euiop', and only
arrived in time to learn that MAJ O con had in
vaded Holland, that the hous, and substance of
the agent We're DESTROYED and her p 'operly lost
She remained with her husbands fri ,n!s in Ire

lost her only son, who Ind entered the army in
the West Indies, and fl ding her sens, of de-
pendence irksome, she returned to this country

nures is found in the droppings of the poul-
ry-yard.
But since these form but small portion
of the farmers stock, and are never rcgar-
ded as principal source of munure, their
further consideration maybe omitted. 1t may
perhaps be here added, that as from their
nature bird-droppings run quickly into fer
mentaton, with warmth and moisture, SO
they act quickly and are quickly dome
They are more allied to sheep dung than TO
other manures. Their mould not being
great, droppings of poultry require to be mix
ed with decayed vegetable matter, or loam'
To this class belongs the manure brought
from the Pacific Ocean, under the name OF
Guano, Spanish word for excrement, New
England farmers can find cheaper sources OF
salts, TO which the main value Of guano is
owing, and therefore, reader, we shall detain
you no longer on this point.
