Caleb Cushing ih an able man, but he has
gone somewhere on an errand for Mr..
Seward, and the presumption therefore is
that more mischief is brewing. That fussy
old gentleman, who used to make fine
speeches, and who has written over more
cartloads of paper than any non.editorial
creature now exlstant, probably desires to
sgnalize his departure from official station
by some new and peculiarly conspicuous
biunder, which, by diht of infinite mystery,
he will make people believe stroke Of mar.
Vellous diplomacy.

The Republican State Central Committee
of Louisiana ask General Rousseau some
very pat questions about his recent report.
Why, for example, could he not have pre-.
served the peace as well by stopping rebels
from voting as loyal men? Why could he
not have broHght into town the troops under
his command and within reach, instead of
deploring his lack Of troops to preserve the
peace? Why could he not have told the
truth about the Metropolitan Police? But

LARGE AND MAGSIFfcENT.-The Escurial is the palace of the Kings of Spain, one of the largest and most magnificent in the world It was commenced by Philip II, in the year 1862, and the first cost of its erection was six millions of ducats. IL forms D vast square of polished stone, paved with marble. It may give some notion of tie surprising grandeur of this palace to observe, that according to the computation of Francisco de los Saatoe, it would take up more than four days to go through all its rooms and apartments, the length of the way being reokoned g Spanish leagues, which is about l20 English miles. There are l4, 600 doors ard li,000 windows belonging to this edihee.

A ToN OF HAY BY MEAsURE.-It is mat ter of considerable dispute how much Aay in ns n0c ought to be allowed, es a ton in weight Ia some of the agricultural journals figures widely apart are given as correct Some assert that cube of 10 feet square is re- quired,or 1000 cubic feet; others place it as low as feet square and feet deep, or only 392 cubic feet Now, both ot these cannot be right, neither can any measure be dxed upon to hold good under all circumstances. Hay at the bottom of tie now, will be more solid than at the surface, and the whole will be very much affected by the quantity of grain put on top of 1t If any) and the depth of the hay.
 But, having occasion to sell 6 ton in my barn, to be sure os the quantity, for future reference, measured off ssp&ce feet square on one corner of the now, and cut down feet deep, and found the hay removed weighed 2,Oe0 pounds, thus making 44e cubic feet, a good measure for ton of hay. It was taken from the surface, upon which 20 dozen sheayes of good oat1 had been stored. The bay was l2 feet deep.
 la this county, when hay is sold in the barn, it is generally calculated 592 feet to the ton, which an confident will always fall short. On the contrary, AS is as near the correct number as actual trial will give me.--CoyTepOAdsat GermaAtowa Tsieorapi.

To CLrAx H,1n-Take one onnce of borar

To CLEAN HAIR.--Take one ounce of borax and half an ounce of canphor, powder fire, and dissolve in one quart of boiling water when cool, the solution will be it for use, and with it you should damp the hair frequently. This wash efiectually cleanscs, beaatifes and strengthens the hair, preserves the color, and prevents it from falling of. The camphor will, after being dissolved, form into Jumps again, but that will be of no consequence, as the water xill have been sufficiently impreg- hated.

THE Yrs Bur GENERAr1oS.--One pines for an apple orchard bis wife can't have any preserves, as she used to. Another cannot forget the convenience of light wood knots and spring water, and longs for csrciins sand-benk, where he can make five Or six bushels of nubbin corn per acre. Some have more considerable objections. Here IS the substance of conversation with well to-do person:
 This i, \ great country you live in,' said l.
 Yes, but it's so far to town, or anywheres,' was tbo reply.
 You have tine roads never saw their equal
 'Yes; bat it's terrible travelling when it rains

 Yes; but people don't want to eat noth- ing but becs'
 Such delightful elimate-your health is good
 Yes; but the northers are awful on the constitution
 'You- land is rich; and it produces so abundanily.'
 Yes but the grssshoppers have eat up my green patch
 Your hogs will fasten on the grasshcp- pers.'
 Yes but it worries 'em to death to catch the things.'
 Your chickens are lively-they can catch them
 Yes: but it makes their meat tastc-so they say
 By this time there was twinkle of humor in the tarn things had taken, and took leave. 'Goodby, my inconsolsble friend may you come to more cheerful mind go0d-by till we meet again
 Yes; but we may never meet again in this world And rathe- hope ws won't. Deliver me from the "yes-but' genention--a people who love to be miserable, and who take pleasure in taking the other side against Providence

THE MYSTERY or NATURE

 The works Of God ere fair for naughi, Unless our eyes, Ia reeing, See hidden In thc thihg ,he thought That snlmatos .'s being. The outward iorsi ls not ,hc whole, But every part is mouldcd To aare forth al Inward soul, That dlmly Is unfolded. The shadow, pictured in the lake By every tree thst trembles, Is cast for moro than just the sake or that which it resembles. The dew falls nightly, not alone,
 Because the meadows need it, But on an errand Of ils own,
 To human souL that heed it. The stars are lighted in the skies,
 Not merely for their shining, But, like looks of loving eyes,
 Have meanings worth divinlng. The waves that moan alorg the shore, The winds that sigh tn blowing. Are sent to teach q mystic lore
 Which men arc wise in knowing. The clouds around the mountain peak, The rivers in thcir winding, Have secrets, which, to all who seek, Are secrets in the finding. Thus nature dgells within our reach, But though we stand SO near her, We still interpret half her speech
 With ears too dall to hear her. Whoever, at the coarsest sound,
 Still listens for the nncst Shall hear the noisy world 90 round To music the diginest Whoever yearns to see aright
 Because his heart Is tender, Shall catch glimpse Of heavenly light In every earthly splendor. So, since the universe began,
 And til it shall be ended, The soul of nature, soul Of man,
 And soul of God are blended.

SALr AND ASHES FOR HOksEs.-Those keep ing horses should twice a week, throw in to each handful of salt and ashes. Mix them by putting in three parts of salt to one of ashes. Horses relish this, aud 1t if tiisir hair soft and fine. It will also prevent bots, collie, etc. A little ground sulphur, mixed with salt and ashes, and given once in two or three weeks, is also beneficial All domestic animals will he thus benefited.
