'TMIrATIoN" OF THE FRIaATE NIAGARA.-English
papers contain notice of the experimental trip of
the new steam frigate Orlando, a vessel which has
excited considerable interest in naval circles The
Ne,os says E
''She was, it is understood, brought into exist
ence in imitation of the Niagara and similar ships
by the government of the United States Their pc
culiar advantage is, that with about the same ton
mage as an ordinary ship of 100 guns, having aux
iliary steam power, they possess superior means of
propulsion, which counter-balances to great ex-
tent the difference of armament, while the extra
speed gives them many advantages over other ships
although carrying more metal"
The Manchester Guardian speaks of the compile
ton of the Orlando steam frigate as opening up
new era in naval history, and remarks further,
that the United States Government having recent
~ constructed number of frigates of immense
power, Sour Admiralty deemed it necessary to
provide England with ships f this class, which
should be able to cope with these great American
floating batteries" The Orlando mounts so guns
and cost 81 100000. Her trial trip does not seem
to have been in all respects satisfactory. Accord
ing to the Ners, the rate of speed is not equal to
expectation the vessel "shook and twired con-
sderably, especially in the extremities, and her
top-gallant mass and bowsprit were vibrating con-
stanly." and account of some difficulty in steer
ing, "many hands are necessary" to control the
ship if under full steam. This, it must be confessed
is poor account to give. Johnny Bull must try
! again.-JourndJ of Commerce.

ScrOfuIa, or Kings Evil,

is constitutional disease, a corruption Of thu
blood, by which this fluid becomes vitiated
weak, and poor. Being in the circulation, it
pervades the whole body, and may burst ont
in disease ON any part Of it. No organ is free
from its attacks, nor IS there one which il may
not destroy. The scrofulous faint is variously
caused by mercurial disease, low living, dis
ordered or unhealthy food, impure air, filth
and filthy habits, the depressing vices, and.
above all, by the venereal infection. What
ever be its origin. it is hereditary in the con-
stitution, descending g from parents TO children
unto the third and fourth generation )" indeed,
it seems to be the rod Of Him who says, 81
viii visit the iniquities of the fathers upon
their children
It's effects commence by deposition from the
blood of corrupt or ulcerous matter, which, III
the lungs, liver, and internal organs, is termed
tubcrclcs; in the glands, swellings; and on
tho surface cruptions or sores. This foul cor
ruption, which genders in the blood, deprcsses
the energies of life, so that scrofulous constitu-
tions not only suffer from scrofulous COM
plants, but they have far less power to with
stand the attacks of other diseases conSe-
quently, vast numbers perish by disorders
which, although not scrOfulous III their nature,
are still rendered fatal by this tant in the
system. Most of the consumption which de-
c1HateS the human lAhiE mas lIs origin lI1teCNiy
in this scrofulous contamination; and many
destructive diseases of the liver, kidneys, brain,
and, indeed, OF all the organs, arise from or
are aggravated by the same cause,
One quarter of all our people are scrofulous;
their persons are invaded by this lurking in
fcction, and their health is undermined by it.
TO cleanse it from the system we must trenovate
the blood bv an Alternative medicine, and in
vigorate it by healthy food and exercise.

Akicking horse is the worst kind ofa horse

Kicking horse can be broken from kicking in

but perseverance and patience by this rule
will DO it effcctually. When you 90 to har-

Cutting Eence Timber.

A practical farmer in communication to
the Gsymmtowa (Pa.) Telegraph, advances a
peculiar theory in regard to the period far
cutting timber intended for fences, especially
for posts The prevalent opinion in regard
to the best time, is when the timber is most
free from sap; and the very worst time is when
it contains the most sap. This practical farm
er referred to entertains he very opposite
opinion. On one occasion he cut down some
excellent white oak in fence posts, and after
this he cut down The same kind of timber 10
tho month Of My when it contained most free
sap and set il out into posts also. The former
posts lasted only sir gears; the latter endured
twenty-five Years.
This correspondent also advocates the out
ting of timber for rails about the month Of
May when it contains most sap. He says if
timber is cut for rails when the sap is run
ming the bark then stripped off and the rails
made Immediately they viii last one fourth
longer than if cut at any other time and have
the bark left on The inside bark Of the wood
is the first to decay ana rot; being of porous
nature it contains air and water which carry
the process Of decay into the wood. When
the park is peeled off, the sap soon dries and
prevents decay All experience goes to prove
that the bark should always be peeled from
chestnut or other rails in order to render them
more durable; this is well known to every far
mer, but it will hardly be conceded that the
best time for cutting rail timber is when it
contains most free sap. This is practical
question however which can only be decided
by experiments, and it is one of no small im-
pOrtance, as a vast outlay is caused annually
for repair Of decayed fences. -Scien'gfc Amcri-
