Jenny Lind, Inc0g.

Jenny Lind, during her sojourn in the
city, has not led the secluded life that has
been supposed. While the curious multi
tude have imagined the nightingale as
having been Gagged up all day long in her
magnificent suite of rooms at the Burnet
House, and as coming out only in the eve
ming to charm the assembled throngs at
the National, she herself has been roaming
unrecognized about the city, visiting the
shops and improving her whole time, busily,
in witnessing everything that we have that
is worth seeing. Many a shopkeeper who
would have given no small sum for the
pleasure of meeting her, has unknowingly
held shopkeeping tete-a-tete with her over
piece of goods; and the crowds who have
stood for hours at the doors of the Burnet
House, have seen her come in and 60 out
without the least suspicion of who or what
she was.-(Cincinnati Chron.

The Worlds Fair.

On Thursday, the 1st of May, the
Great Exhibition of the Industry of All
Nations in the Crystal Palace in Hyde
Park, was opened with much ceremony
by the Queen in state. Thirty thousand
persons were present, and, Notwithstanding
the immense multitude, the ceremonies
went off without accident or mishap. Ul
to the previous evening, the Crystal Pal
ace was a scene of busy life, but the i'm
mense mass of contributions was fnall.
arranged, the rubbish wholly cleared away
and the building presented most magni
icent appearance.
On Thursday morning, the doors wer'
opened at an early hour, very strong
police force being on the ground to preven
disorder or confusion. The multitude o
exhibitors and ticket holders began t.
pour in, and, quietly and without confu

WHY do you put Ashes on Corn ?

The above question was put to us the
other day by farmer, who stated that
several years ago he applied ashes to field
of corn, and it seemed to increase the crop
wonderfully. Lost year he "ashed" his
corn, on another field, and it did not appear
to do any good.
We put ashes on corn to supply the crop
with potash.
Corn requires pretty large proportion
of potash to form the kernel. Hence one
reason why We generally get such good
crops on "burnt ground" as the new
clearings are called. When the soil does
not contain potash sufficient for the corn
crop, an application of ashes is of great use
to it. If there is already sufficient sup
ply of potash in the soil, the application Of
ashes does not manifest any beneficial eff:
fects. This was probably the case with our
friends soil. The first field was undoubt.
edly deficient in potash, and hence the
good effects Of ashes.
Prof. Mapes gives the following analy-
sis of Indian corn, by which it will be seen
that potash is an important item in its com
nosition

halfpast eleven o'clock the multitude was
admitted, and then the doors were closed
to visitors until after the visit Of the Queen
The Royal Commissioners assembled
then in front Of the platform in the tran
sept, which had been erected for the Queen.
At II o'clock, flourish of trumpets an
nounced the eapproach of Her Majesty, who
entered by the north entrance, attended
by the Royal family, the Prince of Prus-
sia, and other guests from foreign courts.
As she entered, an immense choir, occu-
pying the north gallery of the transept,
sang "God save the Queen" in which
many Of the spectators joined. Sir Geo.
Smart superintendcd this part of the mu-
sical services.
The formal ceremonies and delivery of
speeches took place as announced, and a
prayer was then pronounced by the Arch
bishop of Canterbury. The Hallelujah
chorus of Handeps Messiah was then per-
formed, under the direction of Sir Henry
Bishop.
The Royal procession then moved round
the building, Mr.. Paxton, the architect,
taking the lead As the Queen passed,
the multitude arose and received her with
cheers. The eight great organs in the
building successively struck up with fine
music as Her Majesty passed them. After
returning to the platform, the Queen an
nounccd the exhibition opened, which was
communicated to the public by flourish
of trumpets and national salute from
guns at such a distance as not to endangcr
the glass house The Queen and suite
then departed, and the doors were again
opened.
Outside of the Crystal Palace, the crowd
was immense, and the lines of carriages
unprecedented. They were kept in good
order by the police.
LONDON, May ..
The attendance to-day, although not so
great as yesterday, was very large, includ-
ing great number of foreign and provin-
cial visitors. At Hyde Park Corner, and
all the roads leading to the building, a
vast concourse Of people assembled. The
weather was cold but fine, and the scene
most animating. Several packages ar
rived from France and other countries this
morning. During the day at least 3O,-
900 visitors went to the Exhibition, and
upward of 100000 persons visited the
Park.
No less than four distinct records are
announced-two in English, ,one in French
and one in German-of what the Chrystal
Palace will contain. These are to be prin-
ted at the establishment of Messrs. Cloves,
where there are no less than twenty-five
printing machines Of these two are
large enough to throw off at each revolu-
tion, forty-eight pages of the small cata-
logue, five to throw off thrty-two pages,
and eight to throw off twenty-four.
Among the packages received at the
Crystal Palace, last week was one addressed:
"Sir Wyatt and Sir Fox Enderson, Esquire,
Crate Exposition, Park of Hide, at Lon
don-Glacc-Softly.-To be posed up
right" We should hope that, when un-
packed, the glass was not found, like the
English, broken.

fray the expenses of the Fair now exceed
