Ice Houses.

The views of both practical and theo'
rytical men have changed much, within
few wears. about the preservation OF ice.
Why ice keeps ordinarily better above
Ground than below. Is explained in sundry
ways the fact is acknowledged. Why
ventilation is necessary to the successful
lceLing of ice in small quantities has been
likewise the subject of many learned ex-
plantations. which. however, do not well
a1rce Still it i a fact. In keeping
LARGE quantities of ice. it is only necessary
to pack it in compact mass in building
which will shield it from the direct lnf1u-
nucc OF the rains and sunshine, filling in
straw or ~aw,iuSt between the ice and the
walls. or having the building double wall
cri. and the space between the walls filled
with tan-bark. sawduSt. or similar porous
aud non-conducting material The ice
house should be constructed so that it may
b. easily filed. and the ice easily gotten
ont. bearing in mind that mass of ice
1n'Its only on its surface, if well packed.
1t /, desirable to have double roof alb
so,ulcl Y necessary TO have perfect drain
agr desirable 10 prevent draughts of air
coming up through drains, or striking the
ic, anywhere, and absolutely necessary to
haze ventilation above the ice-that is,
above the straw or Sawdust which covers
it. The ventilation ought not to be
tlraught OF wind, but only enough to keep
The ar from looming close and damp.
Farm or family ice-houSes must be con-
,ructcd on the same principles, but the
amount Of surface exposed being so much
greater in proportion, it is much harder
AWAY TO secure the conditions necessary

ING. We advise no one to build an ice
nous: that may not contain a mass of ice
10 feet square and at least 8 feet high
l. y - by 10 feet high is a good size
For convenience in filling, the house may
be set on n side hill. 1t is we'll to sink the
bottom Il little below the surface of the
ground after levcling. to cement the bot
tom. ana to provide drainage secure from
currents of air passing through the drain.
Eight inches is sufficient space between

good a anything. The building should,

so Tor taking out the ice, and ordinarily.

ANOTHER EUROPEAN WAR.-The
Marquis de Larochojaquelin has pub
hshed, i'll pamphlet form, in Paris,
what would have been pronounced in
the form of speech in the French
Legislature but for his ill health.
The substance of his argument is.
that Europe is on the verge of a gene
raj war. He says:
'"There is no use in concealing the
fact. France has played too great a
part In recent times to have any al
liances on which she can count.
Modern Germany does not love us.
and rivalry will soon be aggravated
into hatred. Italy is out of the ques-
ton. The manner in which the
French are received there, and the
Government judged and treated, does
not allow of any illusion. Russia
suffered too much from her wars in
the Crimea and in Poland, and from
the treaty of Paris, to trust to our
alliance. England, having to choose
between the empire of Germany and
France, cannot hesitate. We are
feared; all the great nations are iea-
lous OF us; and two Of these great
nations are created by our arms or
with our assent. We have revived
old and created fresh grievances
against us, and it will be long before
they ne eifaced Soon, in Eu
ropean conflict. we shall be alone.
This is beyond dispute, and the
policy we have to follow is obvious. :"
He adds, that if France awaits the
Constitution Of the new German
Empire. she will have all Germany
upon her, and continues thus:
without fixing any precise period
for the general war, which is certain,
and which Ill political persons be-
lieve in, even tho most inveterate
optimists concur in declaring that
from this moment, the duty of France
and of other great nations-their
most imperative duty is to prepare
on the largest scale for the greatest
events Of the country, which, how
ever, has witnessed some of the most
extraordinary"
