ARN,T you ASHAMED.

Mrs. Ben Bilfl1ns (may she ne'er grow lessJ
AMoke one night with nightmare, in DISTRESS
And saw within the quiet Of her room
While from his meerschaum poured rich perfume
Her Blifkns writing in little book;
Excessive sharpness made her keenly look,
And to her Benja wonderingly said-
..what are you writng'' Blfkns raisedhis head
And, with smile expressing more than Words
Replied, "The names ofthose wholove their lords
sand is mine one" said she, "Ne'er show"
Then with voice significantly low,
She said, "Take up your pencil now, my pei
And write me one who loves to make 'cm fret''
Blifl,ns thus wrote and vanished in the night,
But came in soon with a big camphene light,
And 10! among the names, fret confessed
Mrs. u. Bhf1ins name led all the rest.

An AniAbis PropOsition Of the Rebels.
The Richmond Wing, discussing va
rious plans Of annoying the Yankees,
suggests that it would be a good thing
to burn their principal cities. Was
malice ever more desperate or more
impotent than Of these beaten rebels?
Nothing seems to be left of their snaky
nature but the hiss.
ave may not, it is true, be able to
send a raiding party to dash into Phil
adelphia or New York to do the work
nor have we artillery that will carry
Greek fire far enough to reach them,
but we have that which will 60 further

SUGAR CULTURE IN OHIo.--The re-
port of the Ohio Commissioners Of Sta
tistics shows that in 1862 there were
made in this State no less than $500
900 pounds of sugar. OF this $1,000
pounds were from surghnm, SO that the
point is settled that gtigar can be made
from SORGHUM, and ifAo, that Ohio can
make her own sugar whenever it be-
comes necessary or profitable TO do 90.
The aggregate value ofthe agricultural
products Of Ohio in 1862 was 154, 4,S63,-
575; ofthis amount the sugar produc-
ton was worth s823, 100, and the mo-
lasses crop 81, ,942. .95A 81 6-;

RANGE OF SouND.--Herschel gives three
hundred and forty five miles as the great
EST known distance to which sound has
ever been carried in the air. This was
when the awful explosion Of volcano al
ST. yincent's was heard in Demarara. Inc
cannonadiag at the battle Of Lana was just
heard in the open fields near Dresden,
distance of ninety-tWo miles, and I'D tue
basement Of the Fortress it was very DIS
tinct. The bombardment OF Antwerp IS
said to have been heard in the mines OF
Saxony, three hundred aud seventy miles
distant. The cannonading at Port Royal
was heard in Florida. distance Of one
hundred and fifty miles. refer to these
instances because the inquiry has been
made, why sound is not always transmitted
through the air with equal facility. Sound
will at ali times run along atmospheric
waves in which meteors or clouds are form
inc. and il is then transmitted, in certain
directions, with remarkable distlnctness
The waves of atmosphere and the orbits o
the clouds, in north ATTITUDES, run from lei
ia. right. and the metrors or clouds rotate
from right to left. The waves or clout
orbits 90 upward and northward from TN
EQUATOR to latitude thirty-one and theI
northward and eastward in such name
that outside Of fifty north, the waves
orbits lie nearly from west TO east.
