AMERICAN APPLEs.-Robert l.. Pell, Esq. of Pei
ham, Westchester Co., has an orchard of twenty
thousand apple trees all bearing Newtown Pippins.
By trimming and the application of the best
he has brought the fruit to unusual size and excel
lence. The apples picked and packed in barrels
without being rolled oted i'll carts, and arrive
in the very best order for shipment. Last year they
were sold in London at twentyone dollars barrel,
and the merchant to whom they were consigned,
wrote that the nobility and other people of great
wealth had actually bought them by retail at guinea
dozen; which is some forty-ive cents an apple.
Mr. Pell has from three to four thousand barrels of
the apples this year, which sold fast they
rive in market at six dollars barrel, and are all
shipped to England 1t is quite business for of
our commission merchants to dispose of the produce
of this noble plantation.
The American apple, take it all in all, is the most
valuable fruit that grows on the earth. We under
value them because they abundant; and even
many American farmers will not take the trouble to
live like English lord though the trouble would be
very little.-N. Y. Com. Adr.

GETTING Poor ON Rich LARD AND RICH ON Poor
LAND--A close observer of men and things, says the
Ohio Cultivator told the following little history,
which we hope will pow very deeply into the atten-
ton of all who plow very shallow in their soils
Two brothers settled together in county. One
of them cold, ugly clay soil, covered with black
jack oak; of which was large enough to make
half dozen rails. This man would never drive any
but large. powerful Conastoga horses seventeen
hands high: He always put three horses to a large
pillow, and plunged it in some ten inches deep. This
deep blowing he invariably practised and cultivated
thoroughly afterwards He raised his seventy BUSH
els of corn to the acre.
This man had brother about sixty miles off, set
tied ON rich White River bottom land farm, and,
while black jack clay sill yielded seventy bushels
to the acre. this fine bottom land would not average
fifty. One brother steadily growing rich on poor
land, and the other steadily growing poor on rich
land.
One day the bottom land brother came down to see
the black jack oak farmer, and they began to talk
about their crops and FARMS as farmers are very apt
to do.
elbow is it," said the first ''that you manage on
this poor soil to beat me in crops %
The reply was 81 cork my land"
That was it exactly. Some men have such rich
land that they won't Uork it and they never get
step beyond where they begin. They rely on the
soil, not OH labor, or Skill or care Some men expect
their lands to work ; and some men expect to work
their land and this is just the difference between
good and bad farmer.

HORRIBLE OUTRAGE.-A dreadful outrage CON-
mitted in Greene, near Norwich, Chenango county,
N Y, last week, 1t is supposed with the intention OF
perpetratng murder to screen the perpetrators OF some
dark deed. Two men, masked, entered the house of
Mrs. Burdick, by the bedroom window, gagged and
conveyed her to swamp, about 10 rods from the
house, where she found after long search. The
Republican says she was extended on her back in a
small ditch ravine, made by a rivulet-her hands
tied tightly together with piece of cord-a piece OF
cloth wound very tightly and then carefully sewed IN
something the shape of egg, about five inches long,
thrust into her mouth far it could be- so large
as to dstend the mouth to its full capacity hand
kerchief folded and tied tightly her mouth and
nose, as to keep the egg in Its place-her apron
taken off and tied her eyes IN such manner as
to prevent her seeing-and her body and the back
part of her head in the water. Across her body and
limbs laid three large logs, six inches In
diameter, to keep her in the position in which she
left. She entirely senseless when found
and remained for two or three hours In that state
The men, or rather Monsters who thus treated her
were disguised In such a manner that she could not
recognise them. Her mother and one of her brothers
have been arrested upon suspicion of participating il
SEINE way in the outrage. They under ex-
animation and citizens upon the alert to trace
out the villains, and if possible to bring them to JUS
tice. 1t is supposed that Mrs B. is in the possession
of some secrets which the persons implicated in this
have been transactions with which this is supposed
have some connection, which, if the truth known
would make work for the hangman.

New York CRY FINANcEs.-The amount necessa-

and confirmed by the Board, is 81, 095, 900, being
about lightweight cents every hundred dollars of
valuation of real and personal property. The rate
last year was eighty-six cents every hundred dol
lars. The difference is said to be owing to balance
of $4,000 left the previous year for the last

Gold Mines Of Russia, and Coinage.

The sudden increase of productiveness, a very few
years back of the Russia gold mines, has been the
subject of much remark.
The mines were for a season chiefly wrought by
individual enterprise. Success led to the formation of
powerful companies, who have established extensive
works in the Altai Mountains, and made great pro-
fits.
The fears of the imperial government have at last
been awakened, lest too rapid and unlimited pro-
ductiOn should produce revusiOn in the values of
the precious metals. Until lS42, permits grant
ed for perpetual occupation the payment of II
cent. of the products. The term has now been re-
duced to II years, too short period to exhaust
mine Inland the per centage raised to 20 and 80 per
cent.
Mining operations continue, notwithstanding, to
yield very considerable profits In 1913, the Siberian
mines produced about forty thousand pounds OF gold,
of the value of Sl3,50O,000. 1t is calculated
that this will be raised to SlO,000,0O0, by the
application of steam power, and the improvement of
methods and machinery.
The following table is said by our French authority
to be taken from official documents. 1t exhibits the
remarkable increase of productiveneSs which has been
spoken of

There are certain discrepancies in the above table,
which know not how to explain but one thing is
clear, that from 1913 to 1913, the increase of gold
has been from an annual average of l,625 lbs, to
that of 1873 lbs-silver remaining about station

HANGING. The following story is In Spooner's
Vermont Journal of March 24, 1874:
In the American Army under Gen. Lincoln, in l779,
while he lay Three Sisters, the south side of the
Savannah river TO South Carolina from the Brit
sh troops who had at that time reduced Georgia, an
American soldier having been apprehended in attempt
ing to join the British, was ordered to be hanged
He was accordingly hanged TO tree. After remain
ing suspended a few seconds the rope broke, and he
Eel to the ground. Being restored to animation by
proper assistance he earnestly entreated TO be for
given. A Col. Mason, who commanded on this dsa-
greeabe duty, informed Gen. Lincoln of what had
happened. The General desired him TO double the
rope, and try if it would not hang him. This was
done and he was hung second time when, after
swinging about half minute, 10 the establishment OF
the spectators first strand of the rope gave way
and then the other and he fell to the ground
Being brought TO life again. he renewed his earnest
entreates TO be pardoned and upon representation
the General that the rope insufficient to hang
the man. even doubled, and that there other to
be had he ordered the deserter to be drummed out Of
the camp, with moose of the rope about his neck
Upon that two of the heaviest Of the guard who
attended him, either of whom were heavier than the
prisoner begged leave to try the strength of the rope
and untwsting the double Of it, each suspended him
self by his arms by the single strand, while able t
keep his hold, and the rope did not break.

the lady is in prison. and the poet has gone to amuse
himself on the Rhine, from which he already trans
