w~RITING.INKS.

The following recipes for making good
black inks are taken from the London
Chemical News. The first is an ink much
used in France, and said to be one of the
best in use:-lst. Aleppo gals, in coarse
powder, 5 ounces; logwood chips, 4 do.
sulphate Of iron, 4 do. powdered gum
arabic. 3 do; sulphate of copper, l do. /;
crystallized sugar. l do. Boil the gals
and logwood together in IL lbs. of water
for an hour, or until the water has been
evaporated; strain the decoction through
a hair sive, and add the other ingredients
stir until the whole, especially the gum,
be dissolved, and then leave at rest for "a
hours, when the ink is to be poured off
into glass bottles and carefully corked.
I'd. Triturate in a mortar SO grains of
gallic acid with 3 IL ounces Of strong de-
coction of logwood; put it into an S-ounce
bottle, together with ] ounce Of strong
amonia. Next dissolve ! ounce of sui
plate Of iron in half an ounce of distilled
water by the aid of heat; mix the solu.
tions together by a few minutes agitation,
when a good ink will be formed, perfectly
clear, which will keep good any length Of
time without depositing, t~hickening Oh
growing mouldy, which latter quality is a
great desideratum, as ink undergoing that
change becomes worthless. 1t will moi
do to mix with ordinary ink, nor must
greasy paper be used for writing on
with it. igsasu N. xsg s

THE DEAR ONES AT o NJ

BY EhAch
I've a little heart at home
Beating warmly, beating purely,
That. wherever l may roam
Shields me by its love securely;
And a gentle voice at home.
Such as you would wish, my neigebor,
Greeting me whene'er come
From days toll and all its labor.
I've a little house, my friend,
Never vexed with care or strife,
Save the sorrows that attend
Ever j~ourneying through life.
All the worlds deceit see'
Its ambition vain and hollow.
Well content if ever We
Our small path of love may follow.
And a little fire at home
Ever warm and ever CHEEKY,
With a gay and glad welcome
To the way-worn and weary,
But this heart is all my own
You may share the voice and fire
If the wind blow sad and lone
We will draw the chair up higher.
On the fields may fall the snow.
'Gainst our window-panes be beating,
Covering all the plain below
Then Wen give you earnest greeting,
For we praise the one that sendeth
Blessings on us as we roam,
And we pray to Him that lendeth
Peace to the dear ones at home.

HORSE ~BARBERING.


Nature provides for the c%aloriic protec-
ton of the horses body, on the approach
of winter, by causing the growth of a
thicker and larger coating of fur. But
our modern horse-dealers have discovered
hat this protection is a mistake, so far as
active, working animals are concerned,
and was only intended for horses of leis-
ure, that have nothing to do but crush
their fodder and frisk about among the
geese and hens of the country barn yard.
1t is alleged, and apparently with philo-
sophical correctness, that a working horse,
covered with Natures winter greatcoat,
will sweat more easily, and therefore more
liable to injury by cold, laundering, &C.,
than if it's hair were shorter, because the
heavy coat retains the perspiration mois-
ture for a long time, and prevents proper
drying off. Accordingly, the remedy is
to clip the hair. This is a queer opera
ton; and under the hands of an expert
professor, the animal is " transmogriied"
into "a horse of quite another color"
The clipping operation is commenced as
soon as the winter hair is fairly grown.
With a pair of slender scissors, the bar
Der carefully clips off the horses covering
as closely as the nature of the cutting in
strument will allow. But ever the incest
shearing would necessarily leave some
hairs longer than others, and the skin
will present a jagged, uneven appearance.
The next process, therefore, is to SINCE the
horse, SO as to burn off all stray, protru-
ding hairs, and secure a smooth, uniform
surface. For this purpose a shallow OBJ
long lamp is used, with a long Mich tube,
so as to- produce a broad fame that will
SINCE a considerable width of the hair at
once. The lamp is filled with alcohol.
The operator holds a piece of tin plate in
one hand, with which he lifts the points
of the hair the lamp, carried in the
other hand, is carefully brought up to
the plate, and the hair evenly burned off.
in this way the entire body of the animal
is carefully gone over until the hair is all
singed down to an even thickness.
After this several blankets are piled
upon the horse, and a profuse sweat is
produced. He is then thoroughly scraped
down with q steel blade, which removes
all dirt from the skin, with the loose hairs
and singed ends. Thus finished off, the
animal presents a sleek and natural sort
of appearance.
The whole operation requires three days
time of a good workman, and, at the end
of the process, we would hardly know
the animal by its color, so great is the
change produced, A shiny black horse is
changed to mouse color +; and in all cases,
the outer coat being removed, it is the
short underground hair that becomes only
visible. The clipping operation, well
done, costs $40. The horses thus treated
of course require heavier blanketing when
standing in the stable; three thick blank
cts being usually employed. 1t is said
that the clipped horses enjoy better health
in winter, and will do more work, than if
the above manipulation were not prac-
ticed.-Scientt.1fc american.

Didst wear it off by

Wishing with it
To '.bob'' for catfish,
And got bobbed thyself?
Curses on THAT fish!
Didst lose it in kittenhood,
Angrily chewing it?
Or, gaily pursuing it,
Did make it tangent,
Abrupt, ~refrangent,
From thy swift circuit?
Did some brother Grayback-

And hawking
In nocturnal strife,
Splitting and staring,
Cursing and swearing, .
Ripping and tearing,
Calling thee ''sausage-tail''-

Or did thy jealous wife

In som sly Irritation,
And after caudal lecture,
Bite off thy termination?
And sarve yer right!
Did some mischievous boy,
Some barbarous boy,
Some murderous boy,
Eliminate thy fms?

The villain! .serr..-.

Let every cat scratch him,
Suck his breath,

Well, bob, two courses are left.

You have learned the style there is
To wear the tail short,
And the briefer the better.
And for prompt imitation

That every Grimalken will

Grail OF. History.''

vi -H L
BY t. NJ. MERRIMAN, JOHNSON. VT.
A NEW work, on the all-important subject OF
n the worlds affairs in ages past.
The - Trail, ~ as the title, suggests, aims at
presenting the great leading facts in the f
HISTORY OF RELIGION AND EMPIRE IN PARALLEL.
In each volume is inserted an Historical Dia-
gram, on which the great changes in the history
of Religion, and the rise and fall of empires are
represented, as on an outline map. By this
means, the chronology of the past, a subject so
difficult to master, is made as easy as the latitude
and longitude of Vermont. By the TRAIL"
HISTORY is MADE EASY.
The g Historical Diagram and Digest" by the
same author, is a map of history, about the size
of the county maps, and is designed for offices,
studies, families, and common schools. dl
The Diagram is the same as in the Trail, The
Digest is a compact arrangement of the names
of the leading characters in Church and State,
the dates when they lived, and an epitome of each
ones life. A work of the greatest possible use
for reference, and for introducing the study of
history into common schools. 53 .''
Agents wanted for both works throughout New
England. The Trail of History to be had of L.
