Cheap Mode Of FiItering Water.

As efficient filter as possibly can be
constructed, may be made in few min
utes by any person, and at the cost Of
very few pence. Procure clean flower
pot of the common kind, close the opening
in the bottom by piece of sponge, then
place in the inside layer of stones, pre-
viously we'll cleansed by washing; this
layer may be very small; next procure
some freshly burnt charcoal, which has
not been kept in damp or foul place, as
it rapidly absorbs any strong smells, and
so becomes tainted and unfit for such
purpose; reduce this to powder, and mix
it with twice It's bulk of clear, wellwash-
ed, sharp sand, with this mixture fill the
pot to within a short distance of the top,
covering it with layer of small stones,
or what is perhaps better, place piece
Of thick, close flannel over it, large E.
nough to tie round the rim of the pot out
side, and to form hollow inside, into
which the water to be filtered is to be
poured, and which will be found to flow
out rapidly through the sponge in an ex-
ceedingly pure state. The flannel re-
moves the gsosser Impurities floating In
the water, but the filter absorbs much Of
the decayiDg animal and vegetable bodies
actually dissolved in it; when it becomes
charged with them, it loses this power,
hence the necessity for supply OF fresh
charcoal at intervals.

An immense Peach Orchard.

A gentleman, named Davis, residing
in Clermont county, Ohio, has a peach
orchard Of 100 acres, containing 1900
trees. Mr.. Davis, it appears, left PhiIa.
delphia few years ago, and purchased
his present farm---then considered the
poorest one in the Northumberland set
it out with peach trees, of twenty differ
ent varieties, from New Jersey. As the
farmers in that vicinity had tried for sew
eral years previous to raise peaches for
market, and had uniformly failed, they
considered the experiment of Mr.. Davis
a foolish one, and even went so far rs to
appoint a committee to wait on him and
advise him to abandon it, as it would GER
tainly ruin him. He preserved, however.
Notwithstanding 5000 of the trees died
soon after being planted. This was SIX
years ago. In 1880 be gathered his first
crop, from which he realized sufficient to
pay for his farm and trees, and to leave
him $500 on hand. This season about
5000 of the trees are bearing, and al
ready :, 500 baskets have been sold, at
over 81 per basket. His net profits this
season are estimated at 325 900.

HoT CoRN.-About week ago we
published little story under this title,
detailing some of the sufferings which
crime and misery bring upon the poor of
this City, and hinted at the cause. That
story is not yet finished. The next
night after the interview with that neg
lected, ill-used little girl, the same plain
tiff cry of "Hot corn, hot corn, here's
your nice hot corn" came up tbroug d our
open window, on the midnight air, while
the rain came dropping down from the
oyercharged clouds in just sufficient
quantity to wet the thin single garment
of the owner of that sweet voice, without
giving her an acceptable excuse for leav-
ing her post before her hard task was
completed At length the voice grew
faint, and then ceased, and then we knew
that exhausted nature slept-that a ten
der house plant was exposed to the chill
ling influence of night rain-that an
innocent little girl had the curbstone for
bed and an iron post for pillow
that by and by she would awaken, not
invigorated with refreshing slumber, but
poisoned with the sleep-inhaled miasma
of the filth-reeking gutter at her feet,
which may be breathed with imgunity a
wake, but like the malaria of our South
ern coast, is death to the sleeper. Not
soothed by a dreamy consciousness of
hearing mothers voice, turning the soft
lullaby of
"Hush my child, lie still and slumter;'
but startling like sentinelupon savage
frontier post, with alarm at having slept:
shivering with night air and fear, and
finally compelled to go home trembling
like a culprit to hear the hard words OF a
mother-yes, a mother-but Oh what a
mother-cursing her for not performing
an impossibility, because exhausted ma
ture slept-because her child had not
made profit which would have enabled
her more freely to indulge in the soul
and body destroying vice of drunkenness,
!, to which she had fallen from an estate
, when "my carriage" was one of the
"household words" which used to greet
the young ears of that poor little death
stricken neglected street sufferer.

and found herself with desperate effor

JOE PRINTING
THE JEFFER.ONgAN.

The following lines from the New Orlean
picuyune are pertinent to some impertine
'ersons in nearly every community:
Is it anybody's business
If a gentleman should choose
To wait upon lady,
II the lady don; refuse,
Or. 10 speak little palmer,
That the meaning all may know:
Is it anybody's business
Ifa lady has beau'
Is it anybody's business
When that gentleman does call,
Or when he leaves the lady,
Or If he leaves at all!
Or is it necessary
That the curtains should be drawn,
To save from further trouble
The outside lookers-on!
Is it anyboly's business
Bat the lady's II her beau
Rides out SIKH other laGles,
And doesn't let her know! =
ls it anybody's business
But the gentIeman's, if she
Should accept another escort,
Where he doesn't chance to bel
lfa PERSONS on the sidewalk,
Whether great or whether small,
Is it anybody's business
Where that person means to call!
Or If you see person,
As he's calling anywhere,
Is i; anytody's business
What his business may be there!
The substance OF our query,
Simply stated, would be this
Is it anybody's business
What dnoiher's business isl
IF it is, or if It isn't,
We would really like to know,
For we're certain, if it isn't,
There are some who make il so.
If it is, we'll join the rabble,
And act the noble part
OF the tatlers and deiamers,
Who throng the public mart;
But if not, We'll act the teacher,
Until each uIeddler learns
II were better in the future
To mind hIo ow n concerns.

As we plopded I'D Broadway. looking |

AS we plopded up Broadway, looking
in here and there upon the palatial splcn-
dors of metropolitan SALOONS s''-we think
that is the word fo7 fashionable upper
class grog shops-we almost involuntari-
ly cried shot corn," as we saw the hot
spirit of that grain, under the various
guises of "pure gin"-"old rum"-
"pale brandy"-"pure port"-"Heid
seick"-or "Lager beer"-poured down
the hot throats of men-and ah yes, Of
women, too, whose daughters may some
day sit at midnight upon the cold curb
stone crying "hot corn" to gain penny
for the purchase of drink Of the frery
dragon they are now inviting to home
in their bosoms, whose cry in after years
will be "Give, give, give" and still as un-
satisfied as the horse-leech's daughters.
Again, as we passed up on that street
still busy and thronged at midnight, as a
country village at midday intermission
of church service, ever and anon from
some side street came up the cry of "hot
corn-hot corn !" and ever as we heard
it, and ever as we shall through all years
to come, we thought of that girl and her
drunken mother, and the "bad man" at
the corner grocery, and that hers was the
best, the strongest Maine Law argument
which had ever fallen upon our listening
ear.
Again, as we turned the corner of
Spring ST., the glare and splendor of a
thousand gas lights, and the glittering
cut glass of that, for the first time lighted
up bar room of the Prescott House, SO
lauded by the Press for its magnifcence,
dashed our eyes and almost blinded our
senses to degree Of Imagination that
frst-class hotels must have Five Point
denizen-making appurtenances, as this
glittering room, shamelessly open, inviting
to the street; when that watch-word cry,
like the pibrock's startling peal, came up
from the near vicinity, wailing like a lost
spirit on the midnight air-"Hot corn,
hot corn-here's your nice hot corn
smoking hot-hot-hot corn"
eyes, yes!" hear you cry-it is a
watchword-a glorious watchword, that
bids US to do or die-until the smoking
hot, fiery furnace-ike gates of hell, like
this one now yawning before US, shall
ceaee to be licensed by Christian people,
to send delicate little girls at midnight
through the streets crying shot corn, to
support a drunken mother, whose first
glass was taken in Questionable saloon,'
or 6r,t-cIass liquor selling hotel.
"Hot corn then, be the watchword of
all who would rather see the grain fed to
the drunkard's wife and children, than
into the ineistimable hot NAV Of the
whiskey still.
Let your resolutions grow hot and
strong every time you hear this midnight
city cry, that you will devote, if nothing
more.
"Three grains Of corn, mother,
Only three grains OF corn
toward the salvation of the thousand e.
qually pitiable objects as the little girl,
whose wailing cry has been the innocent
cause of this present dish of "Hot corn
