LCNArIc HosPITAL.-Thc Seventh An
nual Report of the Trustees of the State
Lupatic Hospital, at Harrisburg, has
been sent to US. Under the care Of the
Trustees, and the excellent Superinten-
dent, Dr. Curwen, the institution is admi.
rably fulfilling tho hopes Of its projectors.
During the year 1857, there were admit.
ted l4S patients, discharged 126, leaving
$50 under care at the close Of the year
Of the latter, $50 nre supported By the
public authorities, and 100 by their
friends. OF the discharged, 25 were cur
ed, 50 improved, A stationary, and 20
died. The capacity Of the institution is
for 900 patients, and this is regarded o
the largest number that should ever be
collected in one hospital. In view Of
this, the Superintendent thinks that j.
will shortly become necessary to erect an
other hospital in the western part Of the
State. Tho report announces that the
new water works for the institution have
been completed, and admirably answer
their purpose.

And then by way Of comment he adds:

And then by way Of comment he adds: /:
"From the above i. is plain to see that
those who use large, whole potatoes use
too much seed. At the same time plan
ted two Meshanicks, weighing nineteen
ounces each. One l planted whole; the
other l cut into seventeen pieces, and
planted one piece in hill,eigh;een inches
apart. The result was, the whole one pro-
duced thirty seven stalks, forty three po'a-
toes, weighing eleven pounds. The cut
one produced forty-fve stalks, seventy
seven potatoes, weighing twenty-eight
pounds"
Now from this experiment Of ". H.,
we see that the butt end and seed-eud cut
tinss of the potato produced nearly the
same amount of yield, thus corrobora,ing
the above experimental result of Mr.. Lee
and we also see, what is very impor.
tan. subjec: Of consideration for our po;a,
10 growers, that the increase Of the potato
crop was exactly iu proportion to the
smaQaess or number of picec' the Potatoe;
we're cut into for seed. So let our West
Branch farmers now prepare themselves
to test these questions still farther BY
their own experiments mex. season. Per,
hsps it may be proper to say that 'ho butt
ends are the big ends of the potato, the
ends Immediately connected With the roots
while the seed ends arc tbs small ende,.h
! ends containing the MIST eyes or buds.

CATuoLIcC CHURCH ON DRUNKENEss--
Bishop Bayley, the Catholic bishop Of
New Jersey, has issued manifesto bring.
ing the machinery Of the church to bear
aSainst the vice of drunkene.s. His let.
ter on the subject has been read in alltho
churches, in which he calls attention to
two cla.scs-the drunkards themselves.
and the dealers III liquor. Leaving the
pastors the choice of the particular means
to be used, he suggests that each should
keep a lis. of the druukarls and liquor
dealers in his church. He says:
"L am determined to make use Of the
most severe measures against all who arc
addicted to this scandalous and destruc.
tive vice; and if they continue in tho
practice Of i. they must do it as ou'cas@
from the Catholic Church, who hsve no
rieh. to the name of Catholic while they
live, nor to Christian burial when they die.

THE LOST BoY.-On the last day Of

THE LOST BoY.-On the last day Of
January, near Waterville, N. Y, little
Irish boy of fve years was sent to call his
father to dinner, and the distance being
small he went into u wood, alone, and clad
only in thin cotton. He lost his way.
His father came homo in the afternoon,
when the alarm was given, and fifty men
soon started to hunt for him, all that cve-
ming, and that night. The next day he
was found, eight miles distant. He bad
been seen, the evening before, standing
still, as if glued to the earth-was taken
to house, but could not speak or see.
After reviving, and partaking of some
food, he began to sob as if his heart would
break, but all the kind strangers who had
found him could get ou. of him, was,"My
name is Tommy Doyle, and l want papa
to .o.. TO hi, dinner" The hunting
party at last found him, when one wrapped
him up in warm blankets, mounted q feet
horse, and took him to his ngonized, dis
trac,ed mother. Her joy ut receiving
him, unharmed, instead Of his lifeless little
corse, can neither be described or under.
stood by any but mother.

buds, which had matured well, till the fol.
lowing spring, and used them successfully

For preserving them, We prefer to place
them in successive layers Of damp moss
the CRAFTS being previously tied in
small bundles. Damp sand (uot wet)
answers a good purpose. In either case
they may be laid in boxes in a cellar.
Another, and good way, is to fasten
them in box open Il: the top, without
any packing, and then burg the box,

that shaft, and the swamp became dry
ground The philosophy of it was now
plain. The water could not trickle
through that pot,er's clay. This was the
cause Of its being swampy. Is not that
always the cause? 1t now became very
fertile-more SO than any Of the rest Of
his farm-payiDg an immense interest
upon the expense of draining Query:
would not most pieces Of swampy land,
with few shafts judiciously sunk through
the clay, become the same? Some would
need but one, others several. Land is 50
dear here, and there is so much such
land, tina: if this view be true, it is Of in.
