DRUNKENNEss.-When this vice has
taken fast hold of n man, farewell emu
lation, farewell TO all things worthy of at
tcntion, farewell love of virtuous society,
farewell deconcy Of manners, and fare
well, too, even an attention TO person;
every thing is sunk by this predominant
and brutal appetite. In how many in
stances do we see men who have begun
fife with the brightest prospects before
them, and who have closed it without one
ray of comfort or consolation Young
men with good fortunes. good talents,
good tempers, good hearts, and sound
constitutions, only by being drawn in the
vortex Of the drunkard have become by
degrees the most loathsome and despica-
BILE. of mankind. In the house of the
drunkard there is no happiness for any
one. All is uncertainty and anxiety.-
He is not tho same man for one day at
time. No one knows his outgoings or
his incomings. When he will rise, or
when he will lie down is wholly matter
Of chance. That which he swallows for
what he calls pleasure. brings pain, as
surely as the night brings morning, Pow
erty and misery are in the. train. To
avoid these results, we are cslled upon to
make no sacrifice. Abstinence requires
no aid to accomplish it. Our own will
is all that is requisite; and if we have
not tho will TO avoid contempt, disgrace
and misery, we deserve neither relief nor
compassion. CoDoett.

Tue HEAT OF THE SUN.-The depth
to which the heat Of the sun extends in
To the earth varies from fifty to hun
dred feet; never, however, exceeding the
latter distance. The greatest natural
temperature ever authentically recorded
was at Bagdad, in 1879, when the ther-
mometer (Farenheit's) rose to one hun
drcd and twenty degrees in the shade; on
the West coast of Africa the lhermome-
ter. has been observed as high as one hun
dred and eight degrees in the shade; and
Burkhardt in Egypt, and Humboldt in
South America, observed it at one hun
.dred and seventeen in the shade.

A BEAUTIFUL THoUGHT.-B. f. Tay-
lor, of the Chicago Journal, paints the
following beautiful picture of the homes
of the immortal which lay "over the
river"
"There is dignity about that going
away alone, we call dying, Wrapping the
mantle of Immortality about us; that
putting aside with pale hand the azure
curtains that are drawn about this cradle
of q world; that venturing away from
home for the FIRST time in our lives, for
zoe are not dead-there is nothing dead
TO speak of-and seeing foreign countries
not laid down on any maps we know
about. There must be lovely lands some
where starward,- for none ever return that
go thither, and We very much doubt if
any would if they could"

Why GREELEY is JoURNEYING TO THE
ROCKY MoUNTAINs.-The Boston Cour-
Ter is responsible for the following: ~
IL will be recollceted that Mr.. John
@. Fremonts chief claim TO the Presiden-
cy in 1856 was based on the circumstance
that he had climbed the Rocky Noun
tains. It's pretty generally known that
Mr.. Horace Greeley is just now undergo
ing a similar privation, and it is suppos-
ed that he is qualifying himself to become
The Republican candidate for 1860 for the
Presidency. His singular opinions on
various questions might damage him; for
instance, he is in favor, at the present
time, of putting naturalized citizens un-
der two years probation before allowing
them to vote. However, he is all right
on the other question"

To OBTAIN FRUIT FORM BARREN NTRERs.
"A correspondent of the American Ag-
riculturist saws: +" wish TO describe TO
you method of making fruit trees bear
that | blundered on to. Some fifteen
years ago | had n small apple tree that
leaned considerably, / drove stake by it,
tied string to limb and fastened it to
the stake. The next year that limb BIOS
somed full, and not another blossom APP
peared upon the tree, and, as Tim Bunker
said, 1T sot me thinking and came
to the conclusion that the string was so
tight that it prevented the sap returning
to the roots; consequently, it formed fruit
buds. Having couple of pear trees that
were large enough to bear, but that had
ne, er blossomed, | took a coarse twine,
wound it several times around the tree
above the lower limbs, and tied it as tight
as could. The next spring all the top
above the cord blossomed as white as a
sheet, and there was not one blossom be-
low where the cord was tied A neigh
Dor, seeing my trees loaded with pears,
used this method with the same result.
| think il a better way than cutting of
the roots. In early summer, say June or
July, wind q strong twine several times
round the tree, or single limb, and tie
il, the tighter the BETTER and you will DO
pleased with the result; the next winter
or spring the cord may be taken off"

HERBS FOR WINTER UsE,-Many of

In looking over some old books inmy
