GEOLOGICAL PHENoMENoN.-A
Western paper relates the fol-
lowing occurrence, which took
place recently in Union county,
Indiana:
Immediately in the vicinity oi
Liberty, Union county, a most
singular phenomenon occurred a
few days since, which is worthy
the attention of geological inves-
tigation. About a quarter of an
acre Of ground on DR.. Cooper's
farm gave way and sank to the
depth of from three to twelve in
ches, leaving a crevice surround
ing the whole area Of from two
to FIVE inches. At the time of the
occurrence a rumbling noise,
like distant thunder, was heard
by many of the citizens in the
surrounding neighborhood. The
cattle and stock gave evidence
Of fright. and acted as they are
said to act at the occurrence OF
an earthquake.

DIG AROUND THE TREEs.-Thcse
warm days, followed by copious
showers, will make the grass and
weeds grow around the stems of
trees, as we'll as elsewhere. A
handsome tree is certainly of
more value than 4 cabbage or
tomato plant; yet there are many
persons who will take good care
OF the latter, But entirely neglect
the former. Dig about the roots
of your trees !; not only close up
about the stems, but fork up a
good. wide space, so that the rain
can pass down to the lowest roots.
and not be absorbed by the grass
and weeds. Keep the soil well
cultivated, or mulch around all
trees if you want them to grow
aud remain healthy.-Hearth and
Home.

Manly Sentiments.

The New York Herald in ex-
pressing its sentiments in referen-
cc to the very mean conduct Of
certain parties at Washington in
preventing the decoration of
Confederate graves asks:
Is it possible that we cannot
see how to be patriots without
being brutes? Is it possible that
our respect for a great cause re-
quires us to exercise a mean
supervision over the actions and
thoughts of those whose sorrows
differ from ours in their direction?
Is this horrible tyranny Of a
majority to 60 into the sacred
domain of the grave, too, and
shall no one be grievcd over, or
mourned with sentimental usage,
if he happened to be wrong ?
Shame on the zeal that pursues
a quarrel beyond the grave! In
the United States of America
freedom has been much cramped
for some time, but we have
always desired to believe that it
was only necessarily so. Permit
us, men in authority, to believe
that there is still freedom for a
woman to 60 to the grave of her
son or her lover and cast upon it
a token of remembrance. II
there is not, what. better are you
than the brutal despots that made
Austria a by-word among ma
tions

A FAST CoMPosfroR.-In the
office ofa Wisconsin journal there
is 4 compositor who sets type so
rapidly@tha the friction Of his
movements fuses the leaden en-
blem of his stick, making them
solid stereotype plate. The only
way to prevent this is to have
his case submerged in water !;
and the rapidity Of his motion
keeps the water boiling and bub-
bling so that eggs have boiled in
in the space box. Pipes lead from
the bottom Of this case to a boil
er in the press-room, and the
steam generated by the fast COM
positor's motion runs the power
press. In one day he Set so much
that it took all hands, from editor
to devil, three weeks to read the
proof, and it wasn't his good day

~ TRY" is a great wore

~ TRY is a great word,
though it musters only three let
ters. 1t is the story of every
achievement. from great to small,
that the world has ever seen.
The presence or absence of its
spirit is the mark which distim-
guishcs the difference in men.
The lad or young man who says
he will try, and means it, is the
one who by and by will succeed.
