Of this country. His comments mon
the Bostonians are rich. He saws:
Boston, my delicious Abel, is the cen.
ter Of the intellectual universe, around
which the lesser luminaries of THOUGHT
reyolve and shine with reflected Iiebt
Boston is the brain of the Western
SO largely and rapidly de-
veloped that accidental hydrocephalus
is to be feared. The great river Of
thought streaming down from Confoci-
US, Meses, Buddha, Socrates, Kepler
and Bacon, has been damned mn in
Boston, has spread out into a pool in
Boston common, and the men of Boston
paddle in it in the summer and skate on
it during the winter. The Men of Bost-
on have renowned the world and the
flesh They have given up such base
pursuits as commerce, manufacturers
and money-getting of every sort. They
never drive shrewd bargains or fast hor.
ses, but employ all their time and ener-
gy IN the business of self development.
like the frog in the fable, with such sue
cess, that all outside oxen are thrown
completely in the shade and dwindle
into inferiority.
The import trade of Boston is confin-
ed principally to green tea. The exports
OF Boston consist principally of lectures
written by Mon Of Boston, and deliver
ed at different points in the country by
travelling agents bred in Boston, intel
lectual bagmen, who make very hand
some thing of it. | have heard of one
of these distributors acknowledge who
realized fine income by reading
throughout the land an essay on the
physical characteristics of the Tub of
Diogenes, a subject which of course
afforded an opportunity for humorous
attack on hoops and mastery reputa-
ton of the Platonie Theory of Eons.
The Women of Boston are even more
than the Men of Boston.
They never eat, Tin public,) and hearth
ly despise the waste CT time involved in
dressing in good taste. Their CONVEX
sation is profoundly learned, and to
those who can understand it, very en-.
pertaining. When talking with the men
of Boston, they employ Latin as a We
hicle Of narration, Greek to define the
nicer shades of philosophic analysis,
and Sanscrit as channel for the flow
of their emotions. When conversing
with men not Of Boston, they make
use Of the Boston dialect of the English
language to convey their theories upon
such pleasing topics as the Digamma
of Homer and the authorship Of Junius.

Here is an abstract statement showing
the advance the Church has made.
There wereof Christian communicates

900. True, there was one century, dur
ing the madness Of the Crusades and
the locking up ofthe Bible, when there
was decrease; but take the past, and
you have an advance of sc, 100000 each
century, or l4o every day.-Is there not
something really inspiring jim such a
view? Let it 60 on little longer, and
we may well say, " From the tops of
the rocks have seen them, and from
the hills ! beheld them; who can count
the dust Of Jacob and number the fourth
part Of Israel %
The Christian AdUcate and Journal
|ays:-"Quite progressive step has
oeen taken by the Sultan of Turkey.
lie has ordered a reorganization of the
Turkish schools, and that provision be
made for the education of girls. The
Minister Of Public Instruction some
time back presented to the Sultan
complete system Of education for males,
in which were introduced number of
authorizations adopted for European es-
adjustments. Turkish girls will not
only learn all the works executed with
the needle, but reading, writing, arith-
etc, geography, and history. Into
each Of the thirteen sections of the Tur-
kish capital six primary schools are to
be established at once; and at later
period one superiot establishment in
each section, to complete the education
Of the inferior schools"
VALUE OF LAND PLASTER AND HEN MA
NURE.-Mr. Richard 2. Clark of Cormeva,
Mich. says many years ago the idea sug-
gested itself to me that the manure from
hens could be turned to some account,
and as agricultural papers talked much
about the value Of guano, | thought /
would try what could be done with an
artificial article. AT the time | had
about twenty bushels ofhen droppings
| deposited on the floor of my hen houses,
which [ took and added to like quantity
Of unleached ashes, and Land Plaster ;
mixed the whole thoroughly together,
being careful to powder the manure
then gathered the whole in one corner
Of my barn and covered the pile with
my horse blankets, that the air might be
excluded ag much as possible. Wher
the mass had become sufficiently fer
mented, laid out my corn ground, ano
commenced planting, employing boys tt
follow the troopers with the guano, ap
Iplying about half gill to each hill
which was Immediately covered will
the hoe. The result was that upol
ground which would not in the ordina
Iry mode of treatment yield over thirt,
bus. per acre, received fifty bushels O
. good sound corn to the acre. / trie'
the experiment upon potatoes and whea
with equal success.
am ofthe opinion that the dropping
Of each hen kept upon farm, if prop
erly saved and applied, will produc
twice the amount of grain she will cor
sumo through the winter.
