Care Of Farming Tools.

We believe it may safely be asserted :,
that the farmer in a course Of years sus
iains as much loss, or is put to as much
expense in procuring toos, by their decay
in consequence Of needless exposure, as
from their actual wear on the farm. How
many arc the instances in which the farm
ng implements, the plows, harrows, roll.
er, &C., instead of being carefully housed
when their use for the year is over, are
left in tho fields, or rerad' enture drawn
up in battle array in front of the house,
occupying a goodly portion of the road,
and when covered with snow forming most
convenient places for breaking horses legs,
tearing off shoes, &c, &c. Perhaps, in
addition othese, are suudry wagons carts,
hay-racks ,and other necessary things like
the former, exposed to decay which must
result from exposure 10 the r ins, the
freezipgs, tbaws and SHOWS Of winter --
Now, one such season of exposure does
more to waken he wood Of these nipple
ments, promote decay, and render new
purchases needrul, than their ordinary
wear on the farm, ",,h careful image and

Making Soap.

It is well known to many housekeepcrs,
that failure often results in the manufsc-
ture of common soap, even after the ley is
proved to be of sufficient strength, by
means Of the common family hydrometer,
the egg. This failure is in consequence
of the solu ion Of the potash Cor the lcy)
not being sufficiently Causic-which is
caused by its combination with carbonic
acid from the air while it existed in the
form of ashes. This may be strkingly
shown by its powerful effervcscencc when
subjected to the action Of one Of the
stronger acids. This difficulty may be
easily removed by the use of lime, which
has stronger affinity than potash for
carbonio acid, and which consequently
abstracts it from the potash, leaving the
latter nearly pure and consequently in a
caustic state. ItiS accomplished either hy
placing unslacked lime in the bottom OF
the leach, or subsequently in the tub Of
ley.

SANITARY REGULATIoNs.-It is highly
important at this season of the year
that all which can be reasonably done
to insure cleanliness and pure air
within the city limits, should be done
at once. We do not need to note
particularly the divers and sundry
holes, pools, ponds and puddles of
stagnant water, from which the
noxious exhalations are most disgust
ing and dangerous, they are in too
many instances under the noses of
those who assume to run the city gov
ernment- in all its departments. Let
the officials have an eye TO sanitary as
well as financial interests of their
subjects. Prompt and intelligent ac-
ton in the way of providing the best
drainage availa BILE, and considerate
use Of disinfectants may be the means
not only of enhancing the reputation
of our city in this regard, but Of pre-
serving life and health to a far greater
extent than careless observer might
imagine. .a''9 ''i

SAILOR KILLrD.-A sailor named
peter Snyder, about 35 years of age,
was instantly killed on board the
ferry boat Star on Friday evening
last. He came to this port on the
three masted schooner Joseph Cochrane,
on Friday went to Saginaw City, got
drunk, and on his return was killed.
AS the boat approached the dock he
put his head out of the window, where
he was brought in contact with a pile,
and his head horribly mangled. He
shipped from Port Burwell onthe last
trip of the Cochraas, and it is said has
family in Oswego.

New sohhoiRuilding.

The new School Building, corner Of
Clay and Rockwell Streets, I'd Ward,
is progressing slowly but surely to-
wards completion, the brick work
having already reached as far as tho
third story above the basement and
the Workmanship thus far is of u
character which gives ample assurance
that when the structure is complete it
viii be the most substantial, us it.is in
design the most elegant, of any public
building in the Saginaw Valley.
The grounds upon which this build
ing is centrally located are $50 X 24O
feet in extent, containing six lots GO X
100 feet each, these will be graded SO
as to give graceful slope in all di-
rections from the centre, and when
properly enclosed, laid out, and beau
titled, as. they viii be in due time, the
whole will form one of the most at
tractive objects of interest in our city.
The building is so so feet in ex-
tent, with central projection of 3 feet
on front, and foot sides height 3
stories above basement, with square
roof, surmounted by tasteful cupola,
final and vane. The style of archi-
lecture is neat and ornate, the face
walls being of pressed brick, stone
window and door sills, curved lintels
with brick hoods, handsome convex
moulding of brick, forming pleasing
feature of the outside fiLish. The
roof has a projection of A feet, sup
ported by brackets; these, both for
main and minor portion of the build
ing are of tasteful design and elabor-
ate finish.
BaSement-The basement, which is
s feet in the clear, is divided into
rooms for furnaces and general sto-
rage, in addition to which are two
rooms for primary purposes, though
the design in this respect may yet be
somewhat changed.
First Floor, IL feet in the clear, di-
vided into two primary school rooms,
each "a 30 feet; Superintendent's
room, IL %; Library, II X %; re-
mainder occupied by cloak rooms, hall
and staircase; capacity for l60 schol-
ars.
Second Floor, 13 feet in the clear,
divided into two rooms for intermedi-
ate department % So feet each !;
hall, 13 30; two recitation rooms,
one 10 IL, the other 10 X 29l feet
capacity for 220 scholars.
Third Floor, 10 feet in the clear, di-
vided into audience room, so 62 feet,
with capacity to seat 260 scholars
two-cloak rooms, each 8; two rec
itation rooms, each 10 Is feet.
Main entrance to building on the
south, side entrances east and west.-
Design by Smith & Son, Architects,
Detroit; Superintendent, w &. Dietz,
M. A. Share, Foreman of Joiner work,
Chris Palm, Foreman Of Mason work.
When the building is complete we
hope to be able to give a more elabor-
ate notice, our design in this being
merely to call attention to the fact
that the prospect for at least one cred
table educational structure in our
city, is at last decidedly encouraging.

rare that tley are hardly worthy of
notice, those who have volunteered
from this section have been worthy,
discreet, sensible men; brave and eff
cient in the field, freev from the taint
of vandalism or ruffianism in any
sphere or situation. Honored in the
service and respected at home, they
have nobly done their share towards
demonstrating the fact that true sol
dier of the republic, makes one of the
best of citizens, as it was early dem;
onstrated that the most worthy citizens
made the best Of soldiers. Quietly,
and without boisterous demonstrations
either individually or by parties, the
many who have returned to their
homes, in various parts of the county
have settled into their accustomed
grooves as laborers, farmers, mechan-
les, business or professional men, doffed
the insignia of their late profession,
and put on the garb of peaceful citizen
ship as naturally as though they had
never known the dire experience of
war, wherein they have lately borne SO

THE NEW NATIONAL BANK.

We noticed last week that w. l.. Z.
Little & Co, having complied with the
law, had been authorized to orgaize a
new National Bank in this city,
with n capital of 100000. The
books were Immediately opened, and
in four days the entire stock, a large
proportion Of which was taken by
business men of this city, was sub
scribed, and the whole amount of the
capital paid in. National Banks, in
the majority of cases, go into opera
ton upon so per cent. Of the capital
represented, the balance being paid in
in 10 per cent. instalments. 1t is
most satisfactory to note that in this
respect the new bank will start with
