SPouLTRY MaNuRE.-Farmers generally do
not make provisions for saving poultry man
nre. or, if saved, make use Of it in such a
way that much Of its effects are,lost. II is
TOO powerful to be used alone, but should
be composed with something that will re-
tain its strength. often ashes or lime are
ased, but they should not be. as 1T is sup
posed they neutraize the strength OF the
compost. An old farmer says!hs method
OF taking care OF and using this manure, is
10 sweep the floor under The perches as
often as once a week, into a vault under
meath, which is cemented tight.
After sweeping. the floor is sprinkled
with plaster, which prevents any unpleas-
ant ojor. Since adopting this course, the
fowls have not been troubled with vermin.
About the first of April the contents of the
vault are removed to the barn floor, where
loan is added-two parts loan 10 one Of
The manure. This Is left in a pile, to be
shoveled over every few days. until it is
thoroughly mixed. At planting time we
have a compost that is not offensive to
handle, aud which is good Tor any crop we
may wish TO raise. lie has applied il most
~ TO corn; small handful to the hill at
planting. which answers as good purpose
a. a half shoscl-lu of barn yard manure
the old rule 10 this section. lie has ma
nured all ofhis corn IN this way for nun,
Der Of years. and has never raised better
crops; has been troubled but little with
the cut. worm, while others Ia the neghbor.
hood have been compelled to plant over
from this cause. A special manure, he
b,lieyes it.equal in value 10 guano or super
phosphate. wh,ie its cost 10 comparison is
80 triaing, that IL will commend itself to all.
lie believes the manure from the poultry
house. properly mansged. is worth as much
as the grain consumed by the fowls.

From Fortress Monroe.

FORTRESS MONROE, October 4.-The steamer
George Ledry, Captain BlaEeman, on the regu-
lar line from Norfolk to Baltimore, did not
arrive her TIL nearly IL o'clock last night, in
consequence OF having to wait tor the train on
the Seaboard and Roanoke Railroad several
hours behind time. About five hundred emf
grants IRON the interior of North Carolina, en-
route to the fertile fields OF Indiana and Illinois,
came up on the train and took passage on the
LedTy for Baltimore The steamer was loaded
down with an unusual cargo of freight and
passengers These North Carolina emigrants
were in charge otNorthern emigration societies.
and had with them an immense quantity Of
baggage.
A visit to the steamer revealed an interesting
and suggestive spectacle. Unconbed and un-
washed families were assembled together in the
saloon and others roaming about, determined
to make themselves as comfortable their
cramped condition would allow. They were of
all ages and both sexes, in about the like pro-
portion, and their condition was one to call
forth pity from the stoniest heart. Driven from
Their homes by the immediate results of the late
war, apd the poor prospects before them IN the
South, they were emigrating to the northward,
where, amid the llllmitable acres of the West,
they hoped by hard labor and industry TO re-
pair their sunken fortunes.
The Engineer Department here is now busily
eng aged in taking photo graphs OF the IRON target
against which the recent experiments were
directed, and of the fragments OF the shattered
smooth-bore and rfed projectiles used William
+. Larrabee, the Government photographer, has
taken upwards of $50 exceedingly interesting
views, which are intended to be forwarded 20
the Board or Officers which meets at New York
on the 18TH instant.
Five of the cadets of the graduating class at
West Point have been assigned TO the 5Ih United
States Artillery. Lieutenant Hill has been as
signed to one of the batteries stationed in the
fort, Lieutenants Orr and Swift to the Dry Tor
tugas, and Lieutenant Upham to battery of
| light artillery stationed at Richmond.

HEAVY LOSSES BY GAMBLING.


A Young Man Loses $4,000 In n Few
Months In Gaming HOuses-The Al
legged Gamblers Arrested and Held to
Bail.
YesteI day, on warrants issued by Judge Rus
SELL John Mccormack, Walter Cotton, Henry
Cotton, Nelson Lozier, Richard Tweed, Law
renee Meagher, and three others, named Tupper
Alger, and Kelly, were arrested on the complaint
OF George E. Stevenson, son of the late Walter
Stevenson, q young man residing on the east
side of the city. The complainant, on the 18th
of Nav last, by the death OF relative came INTO
possession OF $50,000.
Such piece OF good fortune could not but
become known to the friends and acquaintance
of the fortunate recipient, and, unfortunately.
among the latter were some OF decidedly fast
tendencies. BY them Stevenson was induced 10
enler some of the gambling dens on Broadway,
among these, IL is alleged, those located at Nos.
7l6 and 8l6 Broadway, and there induced TO
play at ''larO,n that game which has been the
ruin OF so many OF our young men. Little oy
little ne was drawn on and induced to play
deeper, until at length he had lost the entire
amount bequeathed him.
In his affidavit, made before Judge Russell,
the complainant charges the prisoners men
toned with having won from him the greater
portion of the sum lost. Some of the accused
are alleged to be Well-known professional gam
bleIs.
After hearing, Judge Russell decided to hold
the prisoners to bail in the sum of $1,000 each tC
await future examination. The requisite bal
was furnished by the accused, and they were
allowed 10 depart.-R. Y, Tribune Of today

The influence of costume on mortality Is
shown in very instructive manner by one OF

while from ten to twenty there die one hlndred
