Garibaldi's name has given rise to
SON. amusing pathological specula--
ton. An Irish enthusiast declares
that the liberator Of Palermo is the sen
of an Irish priest. aud that his real
names is Garry Baldwin, which the
Italians have corrupted into Garibal
di. There is square in Genoa, how
ever, which for a hundred years has
been known as the piazza Garibaldi,
because the family house was situated
there. Then there was once a king
Garibaldi who was crowned with the
ron crown at Monza In the Long
obardic language the word meant
"bold in war'-and Garibaldi, by his
bravery al. Rome, Monteyido, Paler
mo and Varese, proves his right to his
name.

HEAT OF THE Noon. lit is not nm
common assertion in many treatises on
science, that the rays Of the moon are
devoid of heat. This however, is an
error. The late eminent Itslian phil
osopher, Melloni, proved beyond
doubt, that the Gays ftho moon give
out a slight degree of heat He
concentrated the rays with lens, over
three feet diameter, upon his thermos-
copie pile. when the needle was found
to deviate from 0 deg. 6 min. % A deg.

RICE FLOUR CEMENT. This cement
much used in China and Japan, is
made by mixing fine rice flour with
cold water, and simmering over q slow
fire until thick paste is formed. =
This is superior to any other paste,
either for parlor or workshop purpose.
When made of the copsi4tence OF
plaster clay, models, busts, has re-
lievos, &C., may be formed of it, and
the articles, when dry, are susceptible
of high polish, and very durable.

LOVE.
BY MISS L. j. B.

Softly comes in twilight's hour,
Strains of music from above,
To the lovers in the bower,
There confessing of their love.
Loves the link that binds together
Minds congenial in their taste
Thus uniting, meier to sever,
In this life, nor Deaths embrace.
When the prison door is opened,
And the spirit scars away,
It's attracted to the sphere
Where congenial loved ones stay.
Their united, and uniting,
On they ever go progressing,
Higher, purer, more exalted.
Upward to the throne rejoicing.
And through life richness giving
To all its scenes of toll and care,
Blending sunshine with the shading,
Which the chastened spirits wear
And to every grade and station,
Comes this messenger of heaven,
Teaching this important lesson
Loves the keystone of creation.
God is love, and he's or Father,
Hence his children all inherit
Ia some measure-less or greater,
Of his love, his browning merit.

The American Girls Song of
her Country.
BY j. H.

Awake my muse. and tune thy Tyre
To sing thy country's praise,
K 'ndle anew the slumbsring fire,
To meet the patriots gaze
Shall it be said there cannot be
A country like our own?
Let the proud nations gaze, and see
How mighty she has grown.
Our hearts are with our native land,
Our song is for her glory,
Her warriors wreath is in our hand,
Our lips breath out her story.
Her lofty hills and yallies green.
Are shining bright be fore US,
And like rainbow sign is seen.
Her proud flag streaming DER US.
And there are smiles upon our lips
For those who meet the freemen,
For glory's star knows no eclipse,
When smiled upon by women.
For those who brave the mig hty deep,
And scorn the threat of danger
We've smiles to cheer and tears to weep,
For every ocean ranger.
Our hearts are with our nAtire land
Our song is for her freedom
Our prayer is for her gallant band,
Who strike where honor leads them.
We love the taintless air we breathe
IT'S ffeedom's endless bower,
Wen Irvine for him and endless wreath,
Who scorns a tyrant's power
When war, in blood-stained robes appears,
Firm as the rock we stand,
And drive away all childish fears
Of harm, to this cur land.
Land of the patriots love,
Home of the brave and free,
While thy proud banner floats above,
Thy sons, thy guard shall be.
They tell of Frances beaut les rare,
OF Italys proud daughters,
0fScotland's lassies-England's fair
And nymphs of Shannon's waters.
We need not boast their haughty charms,
Though Lords arou id them hover,
Our glory lies in Freedoms arms
A Freeman for lover.

Things that are Foolish.

A great many foolish things are
said and done in thu world, among
which Fan unknown writer classes the
following:
For a young man to think that he
does himself credit by hanging around
stores and taverns, smo King bad
cigars and paying for whiskey and
oysters, in order to be called "liberal,"
by clique of youth as soft in the
brain as himself.
For a lady to be annoyed because
gentlemen do not always give her the
best side of the street and the incest
seat in the public assembly. She
should not forget that these conven-
tional courtesies are not her right any
farther than. they chose to concede
them.
For an unhedged clerk to think that
he must buy extravaganza gloves and
cravats for every festive occasion. be-
cause Jones, whose father is worth
thirty thousand dollars does So
The best way for proving his manhood
would be to leave such things entirely
alone.
For girl to stay away from a
party because she has worn all her
dresses and cant have a new one
Isn't it something a kin 10 self-con-
ceit for. her to imagine that people
have nothing to do but think about
her dresses.
Nor a man to be extra fastidious
about colognes, diamond finger rings
and scented pocket handkerchiefs. and
then set society at defence with his
cigar case aud tobacco box.
For a girl to think that she is es-
tablishing her character as q young
lady of fashion by allo wing her moth
er to toll through all the drudgery of
the house, and investing her money
in grady brooches and artificial flow
ers.
For man to suppose himself a
gentleman because he touches his hat
to party of splendidly dressed young
ladies, while he scorns to lend help
ing hand to the woman struggling
across the street.
For simple working girl to buy
imitation jewelry, because her wealthy
neighbor spends small fortune in the
real.
For an elderly young lady to think
she renews her bloom by dressing in
the style of sixteen, with pink roses in
her bonnet and carmine roses on her
cheeks.
For al old Bachelor to attempt to
darn his own stockings without
good stock of patience, or to venture
where there are dozen pretty girls.
How TO MAKE MONEY. Let the
business of every body alone, and
tend to your own. Don't buy what
you don't want. Use every hour TO
to advantage, and study to make even
your leasure useful. Think twice be-
fore you throw away shilling, re-
member 70 will have another 20 make
for il. Find recreation in looking
after your business, and SO your bust
ness viii not be neglected in looking
after recreation. Buy low, sell fair,
and save the profits. Look over your
books regularly, and if yeu should
find an error, trace it out. Should q
stroke by misfortune come upon you,
retrench, work harder but never fly
the track confront difficulties with
unfinching perseverance, and they
disappear at last though you should
fail 10 the struggle you win viii be
honored--but shrink, and you will be
despised If you are married, seek
for enjoyment at home--it is economi-
cal; provide every comfort and ease
for your wife to keep the house in or
der.

CARE OF HARNESS. S.-Leather is seldom in
jured by being wet if hungj up to dry, instead
of being left in mass on the floor or in q
corner, where the drying is so slow as to Gre
ate mould. For general use harness should be
fairly oiled, aud for this purpose either pure
meats foot oil should be used, or the article
known by the curriers' as dGubing aud this
should pc rubbed in while the leather is moist,
but not wet. The harness should be wrapped
up in wet cloth one day before the application
of daubing, or meats foot oil E; this should be
rubbed on smartly with brush for sufficient
length of time to insure its entrance into the
leather rather than leave it upon its immediate
surface. If the leather be positively dry, this
substance cannot enter, and therefore the ne
cesSity of its being moist and plant at the
time of application. Farnsh should never be
applied t.; it fills the pores aud prevents the ne
cesSary access Of the air, causing the leather to
become crisp and rigid, and in a short space of
time it is rendered tender, causing it TO crack,
break, sc. Before applying any oily substance
to leather, all dirt should be thoroughly re-
moved from its surface, and no other material
than lampblack should ever be mixed with
oil where it is necessary to blackeu the leather.
SnOe blacklng is sometimes used, and always
with injurious effects it frequently contains
sulphuric acid, which when brought in contact
with leather, rapidly destroysit When the
leather is very dry, as with boots and shoes,
the injury from this cause is not so very great.
Vegetable oils should never be applied to har-
ness of any kind, for after q while they harden
the leather and destroy its usefulness Leath-
er curtains should never be vanished, but al
ways kept perfectly pliant by very moderate
aud frequent application of The oils We have
named.

Sailing HAY.--This is well established
practice among farmers, and is of use if the
hay is not fully cured when housed We pre-
fer to have hay we'll cured, without salt, and
this can always be done, now that we have
hay caps to guard against storm. Salt has
preserving quality, but the hay may be so
green as to heat in spite of it, or SO much
coarse salt may be used that it will not all
be dissolved. Fine salt is better than coarse.
