Has THE EARTH 4 RNG.-Professor Nlchol, OF
Scotland an eminent astronomer, thinks that our
earth has rings ike those Of the planet Saturn.
\ phenomenon called the zodiacal light, which at
certain seasons of the year is in the form OF
an immense cone Of faint light extending from the
horizon almost to the zenith, is supposed to be
ring of matter surrounding the earth. The con-
zeal shape is owing to our seeing it cdgewise, but
from other parts Of the earh's surface 1t has been
found to open and to extend across the horizon.
The ring is supposed to be about 100000 miles
distant, and to have breadth Of $1,000 miles
with an unknown depth. 1t is also supposed that
there are several rings. The Professor thinks that
the rings have conference that they are neither
vapor nor fluid; and gives a theory OF their
constitution that they are composed OF millions
of asteroids, circulating round the planet (henee
our meteorolites) the bright parts being where
they are most thickly strewed. and the dark lines
the absence of them. There was faint slaty coll
ored ring seen within the Others, and this appeared
to be gradually approaching the planet. 1t had

JaDSneSc Gardeners.

The gardeners in Japan display the
most astonishing art. The palm tree,
which is a great favorite, is so trained
and cultivated hat the blossoms are as
big as that of dahlias. Their great tfi-
umph, however, is to bring forth plants
and in the compass of III, little gardens
attached to the houses ia1cities. With
this view they have gradually succeed
ed dwarfing the fig, plum and cherry
trees and the vines to q stature so di-
minutive as scarcely to be credited by a
European, and yet those dwarf trees are
covered with blossoms and leaves
Malon, whose work on Japan was pub
lished at Amsterdam in 1880, states
hat the Dutch agent of commerce, in
Naganci, was offered a snuff box one
inch in thickness and three high in
which grew a fig tree: a bamboo, and a
plum tree in full bloom. Some of the
gardens resemble pictures, in which the
trees were skillfully modelled pictures,
miniature, but they were unnatural.

VyLnt can be DOne O,a an Acre of
Ground.

The editor of the Maine Cultivate,
published a few days ago his manage
ment of one acre of ground, from which
we gather the following result:
One third of an acre of corn usually
produced thirty bushels of sound corn
for grinding, besides some refuse. This
was sufficient for family use, and for fat
ting one large or two small hogs. From
the same ground he obtained two or three
hundred pumpkins, and his family sup
ply of beans. From the the same bed of
six rods square he usually obtained Six
ty bushels of onions; those he sold at 81
per bushcl, and the amount brought,
purchased his -four. Thus from one third
of an acre and his onion bed he obtain
ed his bread stufs. The rest of the
ground appropriated to all sorts Of veg
etable for the summer and winter use
potatoes, beets, turnips cabbage, green
corn, peas, beans, cucumbcrs, melons,
squashcs, &C., with fifty or sixty bush
els of beets and carrots for the winter
food Of a low. Then he had a flower
garden, also r~aspberries, currants and
g~ooseberries, in great variety, and a few
choice apple, pear, plum, cherry, peach
and ounce trees.

Saving Seeds.

Be careful to save the seeds as they
ripen. Seeds from the earliest and thrift
test plants are the best. Spare a pole or
two of Lima beans to ripen the first
growth for seed, and pick the ripe pods
nearest the ground to I've At the fairs
when the committees open the premium
melons etc, let none ofthe seeds be lost.
It is just as cheap to raise the best kinds
as mean ones. When you gather any
seeds put the name and year upon the
paper, so that you will not mistake when
you want to plant. Seed corn should be
particularly looked after this fall. Go
through the fields as soon as the earliest
ears are ripe, pick them offand lay them
up in a dry loft, and next spring when
you come to plant, you will not be sub
to the disagrecable results of "bad
good luck comes of good manage
ment and always pays best.-Ohio Cwl-

Perpetual Sunshine.

u Bayard Taylor, who last summer
made a journey to the North Cape, writes
from Hammerfest, Finmaak, his i'm
pressions OF the continuous polar day,
light of the Arctic latitude, from which
we extract the following:
"I am tired of this u~nending daylight,
and would willingly exchange the pomp
of the Arctic midnight>for the starlight
darkness of home. We are confused by
the loss of night, we lose the perception
of time. One is never sleepy but sim
ply tired, and after a sleep of eight
hours by sunshine wakes up as tired as
ever. His sleep at last is broken and
irregular; he substitutes a number of
short maps, distributed through and
finally gets into a state of general unea-
siness and discomfort. a Hammerfest
merchant who has made frequent voy-
ages to Spitzbergcn, told US hat in the
latitude of so degrees he never knew
certainly whether it was day or night,
and the cook was the only person on
board who could tell him
At first the nocturnal sunshine

you; never need be in a hurry, because
there is time enough for everything
1t is hot'necessary to do your days work
in the day time for no night cometh.-
You are never belated somewhat of the
stress of life is lifted off your shoulders.
But, after a time, you would be glad OF
an excuse to stop seeing and observing
and thinking, and even enjoying.
'sThere is no compulsive rest, such as
darkness brings-no sweet isolation,
which is the best r~cfreshment of sleep.
You lie down in the broad day, and sum
mons arise attends on the re-opening
of your eyes I never went below and
saw my fellow passengers all around me
without a sudden feeling that something
was wrong, that they we're drugged or
under some unnatural influence, that
they thus slept so fast while the sun
shine streamed in, through the port
holes.
t.There are some advantages of this
northern summer which have presented
themselves to me in rather a grotesque
light. Think what an aid. and shelter
is removed from crime-how many vi
ces which can only flourish in the de-
ceptive a~tmosphercs of night must be
checked by the sober reality of daylight
No assassins can dog the steps of bis
victim; no burglar can work in sunshine;
no guilty lovers can hold solemn inter-
views by moonlight--all concealment is
removed, for the sun, like the Eye of
God, sees everything, and the secret vi
ces of the earth must be bold indeed, if
they can bear his gaze. Morally, as
well as physically there is safety in light
and danger in darkness-and yet give

home in the spheres of poetry and
prose, sentiment and sense. Yet it
would be hardly supposed by those un-

why did you, years ago, carefully brush

urday evening to visit the good woman
who now shares your home?
"Care much fer books and pictures.
Don't keep a solemn parlor into which
you go but once a month with the par
son or the sewing society. Hang around
your walls pictures which tell stories of
mercy, hope and charity. Make your
living room the most cheerful in the
house. Let the place be such that when
your boy has gone to distant lands, or
even when perhaps, he clings to d single
plank in the lonely waters of the wide
ocean, the thought of the old homestead
shall come across the desolation, bring
