AUTUMNAL TIETs.-No one can longer
maintain, that frost has any special agency
In the autumn coloralon Of leaves Scien-
tldc men have long understood the matter,
and have explained the ripening Of the leaf
as simple process Of vegetable growth,
though the coloratOn Of the leaves at ma.
turity can no more be accounted for than
the red of the rose, the blue of the violet,
or the orange of the lily. The color which
leaves assume in the fall is due to the same
causes Bu! the populer idea that the
leaves are changed by the frost is so firmly
established in the minds of unscientihc and
unobservant people that it Is difficult to
dspel This year the foliage has assumed
the most gorgeous cOloring without a sign
Of frost; aud indeed seems to be more brill
liant on account of its non-appearance.-
This is perfectly natural, as the leaves have
been able to gradually aud freely assume
the colors which belong to their rpeness,
unObstructed by sudden cold.

How CANADA SUFFERS FROM THE WAR;
We cannot wish for the success of the South
ern rebellion in the interest of the slave,
and furthermore we object to the separa.
tion Of the Republic in the interest of Cana
da. We desire peace on this continent, for
it is peace that has given us our present
development. ia perpetual war is kept
up between the North and South, Cauada
will suffer with the rest of the continent.
Her greatest progress has been made during
the times of the greatest prosperity in the
Northern States, and desolation there will
make depression aud embarrassment here.
II the North succeeds, we may look for a
speedy end Of the war, and return Of pros
rerity. II 1t fails, we must expect long
contest at present, and perpetual trouble
in the future.-[Toronto Globe.

Again. 0 tender and benignant Night.
My favored temples unto thee bare
Bend softly downward from thy tranquil hight,
And lay thy dewy finger gently there.
Again, 0 Night, againl
Until the turmoil Of my brain shall cease
And gentle peace
Shall come to banish pain.
Still most passionate, most blessed Night
The little wOod.bird In it's dOwny nest,
All safely sheltered in It's wind-tost nest,
And softly tended, has been lulled to rest.
Thou rock'st the murmuring bee
10 sleep amid the lily's curtain folds,
And sumber holds
All weary things save me.
Have pity, plying night thy breath Of balm,
Thy dews shed o'er me. On my forehead bare
Make haste to lay thy tender, cooling balm,
Thy stilling finger on the pulse Of care.
thank thee, Night feel
O'er each tired sense soft spells do creep
In visions, sleep
Sleep brings mine eyes to seal.

wine Making a Simple Art.

The impression too extensively prevails
hat the art of making wine Is a mystery
nth which only few have or can become
eadily aud thoroughly acquainted. In this
country, where wine making should be the
pursuit of many in every neighborhood all
information at hand tending TO instruct the
grape producer-even though he be an un-
pretending aud small prOducer-shonld be
printed for the public. Now, instead oil be-
ing q scarcely comprehensive mystery, t1e
art of making wine is simple and convent
ent enough. An experienced wine maker
in Ohio says that wine making is as simple
as cider making. The well ripened bunch
es are cut from the vine, and all unsound
or immature berries picked out. Each days
picking is mashed at night. by pounding In
a barrel with beetle-stem and berries
or passing them through mill. The con-
tents are put upon press, where about one
third of the best juice runs off without any
pressure. After the first pressing the outer
edges of the ''cheese" are cut off for eight
or Ten inches, the parings thrown upon the
Top aud the screws again turned. This is
repeated two or three times, but the juice
from the last pressing is dark and astring-
ent, and only capable of making an inferl-
or wine. hence 1t should be kept separate.
The juicefrom the FIRST pressing is put in large
casks allowing space for fermentation. No
brandy or sugar should be added to the best
iuice, rs il makes q better wine without,
'and is strong enough TO keep we'll. One
end of syphon is placed in the bung-hole
of the cask, aud the other end terminates 10
u pail of water. The fermentation com.
menOes In day or two, aud the carbOnic
Eed generated passes through this pipe,
and bubbles up through the water in the
pail. This will show how rapidly the fer
mentation is going on, and when 1t ceases
10 ten to fourteen days the syphon may be
removed, aud the casks filled up, aud the
bung driven In lightly. in month tightly.
In mid.winter the wine is carefully drawn
off into other casks and the lees, added to
the pomace Of the grapes, are used to make
brandy.
The wine will be clear and pleasant to
drink 10 month or two after the first fer
mentation ceases. A slight second fermen.
tation takes place In the Spring, aud it will
Only be necessary to loosen the bungs /;
when il is over, the wine will be clear IN
two or three months, aud safe to bottle, but
II is usually better TO defer 1t until the fol.
lowing November. The only secret of wine
making 10, to have we'll ripened grapes,
perfecly clean press, casks, and everything
else. and having the casks constantly bung
full after fermentation, so that no air shall
come In contact with the new wine.
