The best time to Apply Paint.
May 6, 1877

1t has long been subject of inquiry, says an
exchange paper, As to the best time to apply
paint ~ the clap-boards of houses for durability
Repeated experiments have been made, within
twenty-five years past resulting in the conviction
that paint applied between November and March
will stand more than twice as long as that which
is spread in the warmest weather.-The rcas pn
is obvious. for in cold weather the oil and compo-
nent parts Of the paint form hard substance on
the surface OF the elap,board, nearly as hard as
glass, and not easily or even cut with sharp
Knife, and will not soon wear of, whereas il
paints are applied in the months of July and
August, and more especially it ia a severe
drought, the oil penetratcs into the wood like
water into a sponge, and leaves the lead nearly
drv, which will soon crulnble off,

Yankee ENTERPRISE.

in evident trepidaton, as matter of course;
when the Yankee, in sharp accent, which

A Late Norman Miracle.

The Ottaway Free Trader gives the
following with all endorsemet of its truth
cit appears the prophet Strang needed
new house, and he determined his followers
should build it for him. So he called them
together, and told them that in consideration
that they would erect the house, the Lord
had authorized him to promise them ex-
traordinary endo,cment. The building was
soon completed, and now they apply for
their reward. All the Saints are gathered
togeiher in the Church, the prophet takes
them through variety of ceremonies, such
as head washing, feet washing, &c, and
concludes by amounting the heads of all with
composition that had q queer smell.'-
They are then directed to adjourn to an.
other room that was totally dark, where
they were to receive the endowment, which
was /, be in the shape Of an extraordinary
and visible manifestation Of the spirit
rendering them at once impregnable thence
in the dark room, sure enough, the head
of all shone as if lit up by the brightness
Of the sun, and great was the rejoicing o
the saints thereat. But the prophet Will
am, who was present, although staggere'
little, mistrusted that all was not gol'
that glittered,' so he took some of the oint
ment and submitted it to an examination
and 10 the discovery He found that i
was mixture of oil and PHOSPHORUS! ant
that hence the whole illuminating operatio
tion was gross cheat. He took the frs
opportunity to accuse prophet. Stran,
publicly and before the whole congregation
OF the imposition, who so far from denying
it, coolly acknowledged the corn, and the
preached a sermon, justifying the act, an
maintaining that all the miracles of Chris
Moses, &C., were wrought in the sam
way-that is, by natural means. c
course, William could no longer hol
fellowship with such a man."

Hard Joke.

The steamer Choutauque, on one of her
return trips from Detroit recently, as is u.s.
ual, ascended the ship canal at Monroe for
passengers and freight. While there, a
steamboat, schooner, and one or two scows
entered the mouth Of the canal, and so ar
ranged their position as completely to
prevent all ingress or egress. Meanwhile
the Chicago having discharged and received
cargo, was returning to the Lake. On ar
riving at the mouth of the canal, and find
ing it blocked, Capt. Dustin thus addressed
the Captain Of the schooner:
'sWill you allow some Of my men to cast
off your lines, and permit US to pass, we will
make all tort again?;'
''No sir,'' replied the Captain emphatic
ally, tive don't change our position for any
such craft.''
Capt. Dustin, thinking that perhaps the
man was not in earnest, sent some Of hi
hands ashore with the friendly purpose OF
removing the schooner, intending as soon
as his boat was through to replace her,
without trouble to her crew. The Captain
Of the schooner, discovering their object
sen: his hands ashore armed with clubs and
iron bars, and under instructions to resist
any efforts to cast off the lines, by which
the schooner was fastened, at the same time
giving Capt. Dustin to understand that he
did not intend 10 move on inch.
A few moments spent in Intellectual expos.
tulation, convinced the Captain that he
must fight his way through, or lose his
trip.
s'Now," said he ''it's not necessary to
spend any further time in words, if you
don't move your vessel out Of my way, I'll
run into her and knock her out"
sHa! ha! my dear fellow" responded the
Captain of the schooner, "you must be jo-
king now. We 'aint afraid of any such
threat. We've got too much timber here
for any such old dug-out as yours"
"Hold on to your steam," said Dustin to
his engineer, ''and back her, we'll show
them what this old dug.out can do" The
little boat was backed to sufficient distance
to give her full headway, and aimed direct.

New Fashion for Hair,

A letter from New York snys:-"I was
amused ut new fashion Of wearing the
hair which has lately been introduced by
our -elegants, and which saw in
perfection last evening. Tho peculiar
thing in it is to reduce the whole head to
the state of stubble field, and he is the
most elegant man who comes nearest tc
having his scone shaved perfectly smooth.
One gent, last evening, wore his hair abou
quarter of an inch long, and as its color
was red, the effect was ludicrous enough
the man looked as though his upper work:
were set thickly over with short, fiery
bristles."

There appears to be trouble in enforcing
the ten hour law in New Hampshire,
The employers in Manchester and Nashua
endeayored to get around tho law by getting
operatives 10 sign contracts that they would
work twelve hours. Most Of them refused
to do this, they were discharged. Process
ions were formed and MEETINGS held BY the
operatives, and great excitement prevailed.
From the foregoing j. appears: that the
manufacturing capitalists Of New England
have not so intense love for operatives as
protectionists have alleged. They are
ready enough to invoke legislative Interior
ence to enhance the profits Of capitah but
when the law determines how many hours
work shall be regarded an days labor.
attempt to evade it. Their pretended love
for the laborer is only another name for
intense sel6shness. q. ''.3H
