,unnuripx wheat in Winter

A little more than q year ago | cover
ed small piece of winter wheat with
coarse horse manure, spreading /; as
evenly as possible on the top of the snow.
At that time there was but little snow
on the ground, and for fear il might all
melt or blow off and leave the wheat
exposed, concluded to keep 1t covered
with manure, knowing that top-dreSs'
ing would be beneficial to the crop al
ter the frost was out of the ground IN
the spring. When | came to harvest
the wheat, ! found it was remarkably
plump and heavy, and after threshing
some of it with fail, thought l
would measure it as accurately as possi-
BILE, aud weigh it to see how much it
would go to the bushel, and the result
was 63 pounds.

ICommnnicateh-I [


This seems to be an important ele-
ment of Congressional legislation at
this time. By the decree of the
Supreme Court of the United States or
deriug the bridge across the Ohio river,
known as the Wheeling Bridge, to be
taken down and removed rs n nuisance,
the right to construct bridges across
nayigable streams was wholly denied tc
railroads, cities and corporations
The law on this subjsct was first
laid down by citizen of this county
in the famous controversy between the
States of Virginia and Ohio as 10 the
right of the two States TO the bed al
the river and the jurisdiction of the
stream. The Hon. Willi0m c. Riyes,
William Greene and Judge G. w.
Thompson were commissioners on the
part of Virginia, and it was in Judge
Thompsou's published vindication OF
the title aud rights of Virginia that the
legal principle was first laid down, on
which the Supreme Court acted. Hon.

law in Pittsburg, not seeing the
whole breadth of the doctrine laid down,
fled his Bill of IujuncJios in behalf OF
the IN erestS of that city 10 remove and

Court on solemn argument ordered the
otiGgS to be taken down and abated as
SU'h nuisance. Then it was .hst Jodge

FACETIE.

Tonic for the insolent-Sarcy -parilla.
A liberal insect-an ear w(h)ig.
A prize fight is called an "antagonis-
tic encounter" in Cincinnati.
An Ohio paper informs the fair Gre
clan Blenders that, "If they keep on
reaching over, they will have to get
their shoe heels shifted"
Diogenes, bipg asked why it was that
philosophers sought the society of the
rich much more than the latter sought
theirs, replied Because philosophers
know what they want, but the rich do
not"
A curate having been reprimanded by
his bishop for attending ball, the for
mer replied "My lord, wore a mask"
"Oh, WELL" said the bishop, that puts
a new face on the affair."
An INDEFINITE ARTICLE.-If you are
very precise man, and wish to be GER
tain Of what you get, never marry

ty of Lindley Murray and others that

.AMaine paper relates that a country
member Of the Legislature, seeing a
quantity Of boxes in the rOtuuda Of the
State House at Augusta, to be used In
sending away documents, asked an old
staCer what they were. "Shoe boxes,
presume "What," said the member
from Cranberry Center" we don't draw

There is an anecdote told somewhere
of dispute in which a boisterous, i'll
bred fellow called his adversary "nO

yourself one" was the reply. "Certain-

said the other. Pm not offended that
you don't think me one"
The palindrome is line that reads
alike backward and forward. One Of
the best is Adams first observation to
Eve: MADAM, Pm ADAM Another
is the story that Napoleon, when at st.
Helena, being asked by an Englishman
if he could have sacked London, re-
piled: cable was ] ere | saw Elba."
The latter is the best palindrome, prob
ably, in the language. The following,
the third and last. reads precisely the
same backward as forward: "Suug &
raw was ere l saw war s. guns"
An ACTORS FAREwELL-EOt very
long ago a well known actor was the re-
cipient of benefit at one of our thea
tres. A large audience assembled, and
the beneticiary's acting was as good as
ever. At the close of the performance
he was called before the curtain and
asked to make spcech;- he concluded
his remarks with the following words:

my sentiments, there should be win

HEAvY.-The Lincoln lNebraska)

Tiger, of the same place.
John has embarked his ship Of life

But never rule with rigor
And ever prove a moral man,
And never light the Tiger.

ice from the summit of Sierra Nevada,
in a very novel way. A party sf specu.
lstors have constructed an ice-hOuse,
capable of holding 900 or 900 tons OF

From a stream on the hillside above, a

to fall in small jets or spray into the
building below. In this manner they
expect to gradually form mass of solid
ice which will fill the entire building

STATE ITEMS.

The Wellsburg HerOld attributes the
recent defeat of Mr.. White, State Super
intendent, to his having recommended
a tax of $500 on each marriage license,
for the benefit of free schools.
The Wellsburg municipal election is
approaching, and the license or whisky
question is the great issue.
One hundred and sixty-six indict-
ments for selling liquor without license
