PREPARATION OF FIREwooD.-Ev-
cry farmer who is not ambitious to
be behindhand in his work, will
be pretty sure to see that enough
fuel for spring, summer and autumn
use, is prepared during the last of
winter, or the leisure days of early
spring, but the same provident man
will in nine cases ont OF ten, burn
green, wet wood all through the
winter. He lets the supply run ont,
or thinks that winter being the nat.
ural wood cutting season, to him, it
is well enough to burn it as it comes
from the forest. This should not be
SO, and it need not be SO. Let him
take as much pains TO see that his
wood is cut and housed for winter as
well as summer use, and he will thus
rob winter of some Of its cold by
having the wherewith to heat up his
house at sny time, at shert notice

A New England johnny cske-tak
ING the old-fashisned dimensions
Is 10 inches long, s inches wide, and
II inches in thickness. Supposing
the entire crop of Illinois for 1860
vss ground into meal and converted
into johnnycake, and the johnny
cakes we're laid up in the form of a
solid wall, 20 feet high and 20 feet
wide. SO that three earTiges could go
abreast thereon, the wall would
reach from Cairo to Dunleith. 1t
would surround the city of Londen
covering Il0 square miles with a wall
so feet high and 60 feet wide of solid
bread.
This immense crop would put a
Johnny cake in the hands of every
man, woman and child--savage snd
civiliz ed-upon the face Of the habi-
table globe. 1t would feed the plan
ct for two days. 1t would require a
crib eight feet high by eight feet
wide, allowing two and q half feet to
the bushel, 3,27e miles in length,
reaching from Passamaquoddy Bay
to San Francisco, and 8 good share
Of the way back. If it were convert
ed into whiskey, computing three
gallons to the bushel, it would form
an inland ses sufficient to feat the
entire nayies CT the world. No man
need stsrve in Illinois.
If all the kernels of this extraor-
dinary crop were strung on wire,
allowing two and half grains to an
inch, there being 81, 200 in bushel,
this wire would reach to the moon
$50 times, forming cable four in
ches in diameter.
Now If this gigantic cable could be
twisted about the necks of specula-
tors, parasites, nonopolists, middle
men, and all others, who swindle the
honest farmer and producer, and the
tive ends fastened, one to the earth
and the other to her. attending sat
elite, and these planets commence
revolving in different directions, the
future avails of corn creps would be
most likely to find their way into the
pockets of those who honestly earn
ed them.

FIRE.-The long woodshed OF the Kenno,,oo
& Portland Rsilroad, near Vaughan's Bridge
containing 700 cords of wood, was DESTROYED
by fire yesterday afternoon with all its contents.
1t is supposed the fire caught from sparks from
the furnace of the steam saving machine, the
machine being in operation. oi Gct
An alarm was sounded but nobody knew
where the fire was, and only one engine went
to the spot at the first alarm, and that was the
one on Brackett street, which one of the EN-
ployees of the Company went for, and told the
hremen where the fire was. The Machigonne
got up steam and went to dwelling house on
Green street, where chimney was burning
out, and then went back, to the house. The
bells had then stopped ringing. s. ns.
A second alarm was sounded some 30 min
utes after, and the bright light of the flames
told where the fine was, and all the engines
hastened to the spot; but they could do moth
ing towards saving the property. tilf.s g.,
We hope, after one or two more alarms such
as we have had recently, our city authorities
will turn their attention to perfecting some sys-
tenn of fire alarms so that fremen shall know
where to go. " sH9ai l. 1. a. '.frs .4i
