WHAT CAN BE DONE ON ONE ACRE OF
GRouND.--The editor of the Maine CultiUator
published, a few days ago, his management
of one acre of ground, from which we gather
the following result:
Zone third of an acre of corn usually pro-
duced thirty bushels of sound corn for grind
ing, besides some refuse. This quantity was
sufficient for family use and for fattenlng one
or two small hogs. From the same ground
he obtained two or three pumpkins, and his
family supply of beans. From the same bed
of six rods square he usully obtained about
sixty bushels Of onions; those he sold at one
dollar per bushel, and the amount purchased
his flour. Thus, from one third of an acre
and his onion bed, he obtained his breadstufs.
The rest Of the ground was appropriated to
all sorts of vegetables for the summer and
winter use-potatoes, beets, parsnips, cab
bage, green corn, peas, beans, cucmbers,
melons, squashes, Sc, with fifty or sixty bush
els of beets and carrots for the winter food of
COW. Then he had flower garden, also
rasberries, curfants. and gooseberries, in great
variety, and few choice apple, pear, plum,
cherry, peach, and ounce trees"

BROTHER AND SIsTER-A Sort of Romance.
Some years ago, young man was living in
New York city on high scale. His name
was VIM. Frazer. He had large business,
good connexions, and was so much engaged
by the worlds glitter and display, that he had
no time to look after his sister, at that time a
poor teacher in one Of the boarding schools of
New York and by-and-by he forgot her
entirely. Some days ago an aged man was
arrested near Baltimore, and brought back to
Morristown, N. j., where he broke out of the
cell he ives confined in, to await his sentence
for counterfeiting. 1t was William Frazer.
The once poor teacher lives now at Paris, in
the Palais Elysee Bourbon, on the Champs
Elysee, and is the wife of Lucien Murat. She
may dream every night of kings and crowns,
while her brother is awaiting his sentenc to
the State Prison.

AN INTERESTING Discovery. We see it
strted, upon what may be considered reliable
authority, that thirty thousand Christians
have recently been found upon an island
north of Celebes. 1t has been rumoEed for a
time, that there was there a Christian people,
forgotten and forsaken, which however, vet
possessed three Bibles. and continued stead
fast in the faith. When missionaries first
landed on the island, they met with school
teacher and his pupils who repeated in the
Malay tongue, AS the hart panteth after the
ter-orooks, so panteth my soul after Thee,
o Lord" No Bibles were found, but the
most precious promises of the Bible written
upon the bark of trees. They knew the
Apostles Creed, and the Heidelberg Cate
chism, and had Christian customs Twenty
churches and schools yet existed. Through
the instrumentality of pastor Heldring, foun-
der of the Magdalen Asylum at Steenbeck
and chief patron of Inner Missions in Hol-
land. four missionaries, who had been edu-
Gated under the venerable Gossner, were sent
out, and three thousand persons baptized.
= This is certainly most interesting discov-
cry. The island on which these Christians
were found, belongs to the East Indian Ar
chipelago. The Dutch have for years had
political rule in this region. This may account
for the original Introduction of Christianity
amonst this people, and for the fact that the
Heidelberg Catechism was still found in theii
possession. But still the particular time and
circumstances in which this introduction took
place may well challenge special attention,
and elicit investigation from those who have
the leisure and facilities for prosecuting it,

New MATERIALS FOR PAPBR.-Paper from
beet root has proved complete success.
The prepared albumen from beet residue en-
tiers into the fabric, and forms paper to the
extent OF from 10 to so per cent. The paper
is compact, tenacious, hexible-is self. sized.
strong, and durable. Il. doubles the strength
of cotton, and In pulping requires not more
than ne-fourth the power to reduce while
in working, the manipulations are fewer and
simpler, and the expenses to the manufactur-
er, relative qualities considered, one. fifth to
one-fourth less. The prepared beet residue.
or albumeD, gives ine vellumy surface, SUI
perior TO. that conferred by glycerine, and it
can be printed without .'.wetting down."
Paper made with it requires no other sizing,
thus saving the expense of resin or animal
size. In the proportion of so per cent. to
cotton, it makes a magnificent paper, equal
in strength, color and fexibility, to linen, but
with finer surface.
In using the albumen, the manufacturer is
uot required to make any change in present
appliances, or machinery, except in adding a
pulping machines of probable cost of SlOO.
The material must be reduced to a perfect
pulp, which the ordinary rag engines will not
do. There is no loss in its use-every pound
being warranted to give pound of paper.
1t can be bleached at tess expense of chlorine
than rags. The material is impermeable to
humidity under all circumstances, and there
fore unaffected by climate
The London Times is about to be printed
on the beet paper, at d saving Of two cents
per pound-which, on their edition Of seven
tons of paper per day, is equal to 100000 a
year. II will be used on the illustrated Netos
and ell the leading London periodicals-it
having been thoroughly tested.

The Boston Atlas and the N. Y. Tribune
have commented with just severity upon the
Union saving bombast of Messrs. Choate,
Holmes and Gushing. AS piece of compos-
ition, nothing can be in worse taste than
Choate's harangue. 1t is stilted spasmodic
and incoherent. Choate speaks of tEHle
editors and little minister's" There are edi-
tors i'll this country who are greatly the SUI

insulted the free state sentiment of the great

AtlaS in this connection:
They don't do things in this way either in
the south or west; there they never act from

section by decrying the men who stand up
for their supposed rights. There is no ano-
dyne strong enough TO make them do it. Our

Hot Wen.her nnd TcrrLfc storma.

ALBANx, July 2.-Yesterday was the hot
test day of the season. The thermometer at
nine o'clock yesterday morning marked 81
degrees. At half past eleven clock we had
one Of the most severe rain storms ever seen
in this vicinity. The streets were flooded for
half an hour so as to be impossible. The
wind blew gale, uprooting trees, and shat
tering chimneys and awnings. In the coun-
try, few miles from here, there was a terrific
hail storm. Stones larger than hens eggs
fell, doing considerable damage to the crops.
Two miles below this city vessel loaded with
lumber was blown ashore.

A serious riot was threatened at Hoboken
on Sunday,in consequence of the efforts made
by the Mayor to enforce the law against the

their horses and vehicles seized. A large
number of special police were sworn in. The
omnibus propgietors and saloon keepers sub

A History OF KEYS "A paper was lately
read before. the British Association of Sci
ence, on the history of keys. The author
pointed out strip of bark or a thong of lea
Their, as the first means by which property
was secured, prior to the advanced stage of
civilization, when permanent houses were
constructed, and the door and the cOffer fas-
tened with bolts, latches and bars. Homer
was cited as the earliest writer who mentions
anything like a key, and special reference
was made to-the primitive locks and keys of
wood of the ancient and modern Egyptians.
The iron keys of Egypt were described and
illustrated by examples from Thebes, and'the
curious fact pointed out that nearly similar
specimens are met with in Western Africa
Alter brief notice of Greek keys, attention
was directed to the Roman era, and minute
description was given of the fixed and move
able locks, the dentated, piped and branched
key, and of the variousy formed bows sur
mounting the stem. Mention was made of
the small keys attached to fnger-ripgs, and
of the false or skeleton key of the Roman
householder. The Anglo Saxon and Nor
man keys were then dwelt upon, and the va
rious forms and fashions of the key-bows,
from the thirteenth century down to later
period, were described.
