The PITTsFoRD HENs.-Mr. Editor
t" Mr.. Martin Leonard of Pittsford, VT, from
eight hens, raised forty five chickens, sold
seven hundred and ten dozen eggs, for
Sl62, besides one hundred and ten dozen
used in the family" So says the Boston
Journal of April %. Now you will see
by a little figuring. allowing 365 days in a
year, they must lay each over three eggs
each per day, without taking any time to
hatch and raise the 45 chickens. Now as
my hens. with the various modes of keep
ing recommended to make them lay, did
not produce one egg each in three days,
nor did they raise one chick the past year,
! began to think sheep the most profitable,
but after figuring the profits of the Pitts
ford hens, must agree with Mr.. L. that
such hens "are greater source Of profit
than sheep" and will hold ON until hear
more, for would not stand about giving
five or six dollars each for such hens!

are the following:
Scbulter, a German, in 1881 wrote
the ten commandments within cir
Gle three-fourths of an inch an tert.
A clergyman in Buffalo, N. Y, wrote
tho entire Lords Prayer on one line
one inch in length.
At the Worlds Fair in London, was
exhibited miniature testament writ
ten on fine tissue paper, beautifully
bound and placed within a seal ring.
Prof Hinman has among his specimens
of art, the Lords Prayer written by
himself three times within an area of

manner. Twice within the same space
with penciled scene on Lake George,
and once on the end of Faber's pen.

The Jewish New Year.

AS announced yesterday, the Israel
ties are now celebrating their New
Year-a. m. 5, 628. The origin of the
festival is given in Leviticus XIII, %
"A, %: "And the Lord spake unto
Moses, saying, speak unto the children
of Israel, saying: In the seventh
month, in the first day of the month
shall ye have a Sabbath, memorial Of
blowing of trumpets, holy convoca
ton. Ye shall do no servile work. "
Although occurring in the first month,
it is called the seventh month because
at the institution of the Passover, Just
prior to the departure from Egypt, so
important an era was their exit to be
that God commanded "this month
shall be the beginning of months
exodus XII, p
The cornet, or trumpet, which is
sounded on New Year is made of a
rams horn, to commemorate the4M-
tended sacrifice of Isaac on Mount
Moriah by his father, Abraham, the
anniversary of which event is at this
period. The blowing Of cornet is
rite peculiar to this festival, because at
the beginning of the year they are to
renow their allegiance to their Heaven.
ly King, and to remind them of "that
great day when the great trumpet shall
sound, and those that are Wandering
about in the land of Ashen and the
outcasts from the land of Egypt, shall
come to worship the Lord on His Holy
Mount at Jerusalem"
The services of the day are of 6
three. fold character: 1st. Homage
to invoke the speedy approach of the
Kingdom of God, when all mankind
will arrive at the true knowledge Of
their Creator, and unite in the worship
of the Supreme Benefactor. I'd. Oh
Rememberance--acknowledging the
divine omniscence and providence. Sd
Sounding the Cornet-to celebrate
that future jubilee when mankind will

the ten days of penitence, at the close
of which is the Great Day of Atone
ment.

The writing ON the Rock.

Ages upon ages ago the tide was out,
and the muddy beach lay smooth as
this sheet of paper before me. A cloud
passed over the sky, and a shower of
big rain or hail came down, and pitted
the mud as thick as leaves on the
trees. A strong wind drove the drops,
so that the impressions were little
one-sided, They had written their
short history as plain as my pen can
write; and even the direction which the
wind blew was recorded. Some great
frogs and lizards which used to live
there, came hopping over the mud,
and left their tracks also deeply print
ed on the shore. By and by the great
waves came softly stealing up, and
covered the whole surface with fine
sand, and so the tracks were seen no
more for ages upon ages. The clay
hardened into solid rock, and so did
the sand; and after these thousands of
years had passed away, some masors
came upon the curious inscription
Men of science, who are skilled in
reading these stony leaves of Gods
great book, read, as plainly as if they
bad been present, the story of that
passing shower. 1t had been written
on the softest clay, but it was read on
solid rocks. So your hearts today
are like the soft clay. Everything
stamps them, but the stamps are not
so easy to remove. They will be there
when you are grown up to be man
or woman. o, what deep, dark prints
the bad words Of evil associates make?
But how lovely il will be to recall the
record which kind and loving actions
make upon the soul!

Mistellaneous.
philadelphia Manufacture.


We are somewhat astonished to no.
tice that the Quaker city of Philadel.
phia puts forth claim to being, not
only the greatest manufacturing city
on this continent, but, with the excep-
ton of London, the greatest in the
whole world. We are all familiar
liar with its advantages as quiet and
pleasant place of residence; but that it
should claim to be a great Industrial
centre, will be news to many. AS the
matter is one, however, in which our
merchants are directly interested, and
the consumers of goods indirectly, we
will give a brief synopsis of its claims.
In 1860, according to the census re.
turns, there were in Philadelphia, 6 1893
manufactures having capital of S73,
3l8,885, which employed 98, 900 hands,
and produced an annual value of SI36,-
100000. Recently, Mr.. Edwin T.
Freedley, well known author, has
prepared a volume of 700 pages, on
the manufactures of Philadelphia, and
demonstrated that, in 1866, the facto-
ries produced over too hundred millions
Of dollars Of staple goods. This is an as
founding exhibit; no other city on the
American continent approximates this
amount. In 1855, the State of Massa-
chusetts, including Boston, Lowell, and
all her famous manufacturing towns,
did not produce more than two hun.
dred and forty millions. In 1860, New
York had only seven small Cotton
Goods Manufactures, and no Wooden
Mills; Philadelphia is now the CONNER.
cial centre of two hundred and sixty
Cotton and Wooden factories, and has
besides several thousand hand looms,
Of which the annual product is equal
to that of seventy additional mills OF
average size. The class of Dry Goods
manufactured in Philadelphia is OF
those low priced staple goods, which
are especially adapted to the wants of
the people of the Middle, Western, and
Southern States. Millions of yards OF
Pantaloonery, Cottonades, Checks and
Stripes, Tickings, Osnaburgs, Ken
lucky Jeans, and narrow textile Fab.
RIGS, are made there every year OF
carpetings, the product amounts to
nearly ten millions of dollars; of ready.
made clothing, to eighteen millions; of
refined sugar over twenty millions; of
boots and shoes, over five millions; of
stoves, nearly three millions. Phila-
delphia claims to have the largest mil
itary goods mandatory, the largest
chemical factories, the largest cordage
factory, the largest bookselling house,
and the largest locomotive works and
machine shops in the United States.
1t is quite evident, that her proximity
to the coal mines and iron beds, her
low rents and facilities afforded me
chanics for comfortable and economi.
cal living, have given Philadelphia a
start in manufacturing, which nothing
but her want of enterprise can retard.
1t is moreover evident that with the
progress already made in manufactu
ring, the Philadelphia market is
worthy the attention of those who
wish to purchase goods at first hand.

Chickens Hatched from. Eggs
E.2O0 Years Old

The Paris correspondent of The Ma
tion states that the guests of the Abbe
Denis, curate of the parish of St Elo,
in the Faubourg St. Antoine, dined
few days ago on fowls whose immedi-
ate ancestors figured, he says, on the
table of the great Frankish King Dag
obert. When the Able Denis laid the
first stone of the church and Presby-
terry be has built, by his own exer-
tions, on the site of the old chateau
and gardens Of Dagobort, hens nest
full of eggs was discovered beneath the
ruins of the ancient building. These
eggs, more than twelve hundred years
old, were about to be thrown away by
the laborers, when the Able, remem-
bering that wheat had been grown
from grain found in Egypt in num-
mics dating back from the time of the
Pharaohs, bethought him that possi-
bly, there might still be life in these
eggs.
A sa0ant of the institute, consulted
at once in reference to these precious
relics of an age when there was as yet
no France to detest 'Perfdious Albion
or to be jealous of Prussia and needle
guns, advised their being forthwith
confined to hen of approved success
in the maternal capacity. This advice
having been acted upon the good cure
and his friend had the delight of wit
Messing, twenty-one days afterwards,
the Matching of fine brood of chick
ems, the direct progeny of the deni-
zcns of King Dagobert's barn yard.
The fowls thus obtained have been
carefully kept from any n.esaliance
with their congeners of less ancient
blood; and the Able has now a yard so
we'll replenished with king Dagobert
fowls that he not only supplies his
own larder with poultry of this Illus
trious breed, but is about to organize,
at the suggestion of numerous friends,
a sale of King Dagobert eggs for the
benefit Of the poor of his parish.

success the following method OF making

And her little dinner-plate chapeau
Down slanting DER her eyes.

Such funny style of head-dress,
Like plate for making pies,

And down slanting DER the eyes.
