Does The Moon Rotate.

In all works on astronomy, it is assumed and
taught as fact, that the moon revolves on its
axis once in twenty eight days. ]. Symonds,
an inspector Of schools, in Enc land, wrote
letter to the London Tines expressing his
surprise that natural philosophers should have
maintained such adogma, and that it should be
taught in all schools as d fact Of science. If his
conclusion were wrong, it would have been very
easy for astronomers to have set him right, but
not one of the eminent astronomers in England,
have presented single good and conclusive ar
gument in favor of the moon rotating theory,
while some have rather abused the inspector for
qustionng the old dogma 1t is positive fact,
that great deal of what is taught IN schools is
assumption, not fact. Assumption by frequent
uncontradipted repetition come to be regarded
n the course of time, by students as facts
This has been the experience of every man OF an
original mind, and had thus been the means of
the common astronomical assumption, viz, that
cf the moons rataton on her axis once In
% days, how can this be SO when it continually
presents the same face to the earth If il has a
rotation on lis axis, it should present different
phases We ptecevethan Evan Hopkins. c, Z.
and David Mushat, M En- the London Min
ing Journal, have sustained the views Of Mr.
Syronds in very able articles.

THAN rocks: he had made many observations ;
he knew the places that afforded prey round his
haoitatlon, as far in every direction as the
strongest wing can fly between the rising and
setung OF the simmer sun ; he had fed year
after.year on the entrails of men. His opinion
was that men had only the appearance of ami,
NAL life being really vegetables, with power
OF motion and that as the boughs of an oak
are dashed together by the storm, that swine
may fatten on the fallen acorns, so men are, by
somc cunaccountable power, driven one against an
other till they lose their motion, that vultures
may be fed. Others think they have observed
something of contrivance and policy among
these mischievous beings and those that hover
more closely round them, pretend that there is
in every herd one that gives directions to the
rest, and seems to be more eminently dilighted
with wide carnage. What is that entities

Forks Nothing ueed be said about the in
proved hay forks now fast hold on the public
aenlments.
The use of the improved, polished steel, round
tined MANURE forks ought to be much extended.
The long handle is best. In garden, where
small stones interrupt, or the dirt sticks, the
fork is better than the srade,will enter the
ground easier, and the dirt comes off clean.
In dlfching swarded wet meadows, let the.
system be to cut the sides and centre Of the
ditch with diiching knife. .cut crosswise with
broad axe. Clear out the ditch with the fork,
which will enter much easier than the spade,
and throw off clean the soil and muck, especial
ly if mixed with sand. 10 England, the fork
with five tines is most approved, and fast gaining
on the spade The five tined, with the tines
somewhat shorter and stouter than is common
for manure is the best fork for dtching. ME.

IMPROVED SHoE.-The Philadelphia Ledger
describes newly invented shoe which is, we
should think, a very decided improvement, in
the heavy, inconvenent, and unhealthy India
rubber over-shoe. The sole is made entirely of
gutta percha. the shCe otherwise being like the
ordinary leather shoe. The sole is applied TO-
the upper part by pressure. The inner sole and
upper portlou, when stretched over the astis
first punctured by purch. The gutta percha
in soft state, is then pressed, by mechauics'
means, upon this inner sole, the material is fore
ed through the punch hoes, and the shoe is then
he'd together as if it had been peggcd though
much moecure y, for the guua percha fills
entirely the punched holes, and even forms sort
of riyet head ON the inside of the. shoe. These
shoes, the Ledger is informed, can be made thirty
per cent cheaper than the leather soled shoes,
the price Of leather having recently gone up
very high, They are as serviceabe to wear,
and are, of course, entirely impervious to water.
They may be worn, like leather-soed shoes,
any seas1n of the year, without Inconvenience,

her husband must wander alone on the earth,

ORIGIN OF THE TURKISH CRESCENT When
Philip Of Macedon approached by night with
his troops to scale the walls of Byzantium, the
moon shone out and discovered his design to the
besieged, who vigorously repulsed him. The
crescent was afterwards adopted as the favorite
badge of the city, When the Turks took
Byzantium, they found the crescent in every
public place and believing it to possess some
magical power they adopted it themselves.

bright blue sky in June, and the workmen GO
ing through the rustling ranks for the last
time the rows so long that they seem to come
together acres away, and the weeds all the
while on great race with the corn.
That's the picture, but there's something
more than specimen of the fine arts in the ex-
preston there's IL bit of philosophy.
1t aceurs to US there isall the difference in
the world in the way people ply that humble
instrument, the hoe and almost everybody
works with something very like it, whether
they work in the field, or in the counting house.
or the mechanic-shop. The thing is done that
is 'oorfh doing, by hard digging. Some people
60 through the field and through the world
slashing this way and that, now through hill
of corn now through weed, making the whole
era look like the lightning's summer-fallow.
Such people certainly "havea hard row to
hoe, 'if indeed, when they finish it, it proves
worth hoeing at all
Others, again, strike at the little weeds with
a sufficient expenditure of strength to fell quite
respectable tree, and the result is, that about
midway Of the field, and on the first row, thew
lean upon the implement and sigh to themselves,
"We have a hard row to hoe" And they tell
the truth, for so they do
And now and then man manages to strike
every stone in the vicinity perfectly annihi-
lating bow-annihilating to the hoe, we mean
and before the day is half done, his weapon
is disabled, and he fancies, like the rest tha
