"BULLA WHEAT. Our friend
HIRAM BULLA, last year, noticed a

he had twenty five dozen sheaves.
The length of the stalk is about
4 feet. notwithstanding the severe

is about 4 inches n length aft

Decidedly Sensible.

On Sabbath last, Rev. Thomas Comstock,
Pastor Of Central NJ. e, Church, after preach
ing a very excellent sermon, referred to tho
presence of ch ildren in the congregation, and
encouraged Mothers to brig their little ones
to church, "even if they did make a little noise
once in a while:
This touched a subject that needs TO be
considered, n nj as we look over the congrega-
tons of our cityschurches, and scarcely see
one of these little ones, wc instinstivey ask,
where are they La the care Of some careless
servant-while the father and mother are at
church or at asst, not being taug ht to t.
tend places of worship, and being trained IN
the order, that such places develop. As
general thing, Mothers must stay away from
church, because they can't take the small
children with them, for fear some scanctimo-
NOUS worshipper, with more form of goodness,
than real live christianity, will be disturbed
by them. We hope the suggest ions of Rev.
Comstock will be appreciated by his congre-

'How Dorm TIE LITTLE Busy DIE.
&c.-Last Wednesday, about noon.
little son Of Thos Maher, residing on
Seventh street, was sent by his mother
to carry his fathers dinner to him at the
depot, returning he fell in with some
other children, about his own age, be-
longing to Mr.. Section, and together
they proposed visiting the bee hives, in
Mr.. Sections yard, with hostile inten-
tons The bees not bee-ing in humor
for Jokes just then, and seeing the young
invaders EN- MAssE before them and ar
rayed in line at battle, concluded to rec
onnoitre their line. AS one bee followed
the youngsters thought to catch 'em on
the fly but, On. horror! just at the mo
ment when the boy expected to see 'em
retreat IN disorder at their warm recep>
ton, the bees planted their warm feet
on their eyes, lips, nose, hands and bare
feet; with such rapidity and acute pain,
as to cause the boys to yell out for quar-
ter. But the black flag was up, and no
quarter was granted. The screams of
the boys awakened Mrs. Scotton, who
was asleep in the house, and who seeing
the boys powerless, at the will of the
bees, called for help, which brought Mr..
Section and two other gentlemen to the
rescue. and the boys were liberated with
their hides full of bee stings, which
took Mr.. Section same time to extract
The boys found the bees fighting end
up and blood!ess though painful bat
tie was the result.

Our + ees.

We call attention 10 the follow
ing extract from the last report of
the missioner of Patents:
"When establishments are or
ganized for the purpose of prccur-
ing patents, they are apt to becon
more solicitious abont the number
than the quality of those which
they obtain. This tendency is ag-
gravated by those who solicit pat
ents upon contingent fees, or who.
without special training or qualii
cations, adopt this business as an
incident to claim agency, and
press for patents as they press for
back pay and pensions Such men
are often more DESTROYS Of obtain
ing a patent of any kind, and by
any means, than they are Of obtain
ing one which shall be of any value
to their clients. Inventors are
often poor, uneducated, and lack
ing in legal knowledge. They de
sire a cheap solicitor, and do not
know how to choose a good one
Tie yare pleased with the parch
mcnt and the seal, and are not
themselves able to judge Of the
scope or value of the grant.
Honest and skillful solicitors,
with a thorough knowledge of the
practice Of the office, and of pat
ent law, ard who are able and will
ing to advise their clients as to the
exact value OF the patents which
they can obtain for them, may be
of much service to Inventors
There are many such, but those
who care for nothing but to give
them som athing called patent,
that they may secure their own fee,
have in too many instances proved
curse. 20 get rid OF t. cir client
and of trouble, they have some
times been content to take less
than he was entitled to, while in
many cases they have with ch
self-laudation, presented him with
the shadow, when the substance
was beyond his reach"
" 18th the class thus denounced, we do not
propose 10 compete, Out long experience
in the patent Office and the courts, has. we re-
specially submit, given us such facilities for
the transaction of business, that we can Of
fer our services for fees low any reputa-
Bile practitioners afford to charge and
far below what any competent persons can
afford, who have yet to familiariZe themselves
with the enormous and constantly increasing
mass of American and foreign patents. We
charge no more than fair remuneration. We
are not willing to work tor less. In ordinary
cases, our charge is $40 whicE covers all our
fees before the Examines and the Board of
Examiners in chief. Exceptionally difficult
cases mus. be made a matter of special ar
rangenent. Our fee is not conditional. We
cannot afford to work, for nothing. But
rarely tail to get patent alter favorable
report a preliminary examination. The
Commissioner report shows that about %
per cent. of the applications made in 1869,
were finally rejected. OF cases filed by us
during that year, less than per cent. were
thus re jected.
