The Loss Of the Cambria.
LONDON. October 2

LONDON, October %.
Late on Wednesday evening word
reached Londonderry that the steamship
Cambria, of the Anchor Line. had been
wrecked off the coast Of Donegal. The
information was brought to that city by
the only survivor, James Mcfarland, a
steerage passenger. The intelligence was
at first disbelieved, but has since been con
firmed. The telegraph lines have been dis
arranged by the recent storms, and the fol-
lowing summary of McGartland's narrative
has Just gotten through from London
derry:
The voyage from New York was gener-
ally fortunate, Notwithstanding the I'M
pleasant weather which prevailed most of
the time, until the night Of "Wednesday,
October 10, between 10 and II o'clock.
The Cambria was then under sail, and
steaming rapidly. Suddenly, when all was
apparently going we'll, she struck ON Mis-
traline Island, small island ten miles west
of Donegal, Ireland, and thirty miles west
of Londonderry. The vessel instantly be-
gan 10 ill through large holes stove In her
bottom. and her fires were soon extin-
euished. II became evident that the
steamer was hopeless Efforts were
directed to save the lives Of the
passengers who were massed upon the
deck. Four boats crowded with passen-
gers were launched and put of from the
sinking steamer. Mcfarland entered one
of these, and he saw no more Of the ship
or other boats. He thinks there Is no
doubt that all the boats were swamped,
and that he Is the only survivor. Almost
instantly upon getting into the boat 1t cap
sized, and he lost his consciousness.

Duration Of Life in the Lower Animals.

Our knowledge regarding the duration

animalcu!es, never reach the age oftwenty-
four hours, an actinia, or sea-anemone, with
which we are personally acquainted, Is

and apparently lively and active, was seen

in Swabia, in 1896, which weighed $50
pounds and was 10 feet long, with a ring
attached TO it bearing an inscription indi-
eating that it was put into the lake in
which it was caught, in 1880. Some Of the
sacred crocodiles in India have been known
since the Conquest Mr. Thomas Bell, the
well-known zoologia, has described tor
toise that he supposes to be 200 years old
Parrots have been known to reach the age
of 100 years and there is reason TO be-
lieve that the elephant and the whale can
reach the respective ages of $50 and 300
years With regard to our more common
domesticated animals, 1t may be stated that
the horse and ass, under favorable condi-
tons, live from 20 To 25 years, and may
reach 40; while the mule is longer-lived

How to Have Z Loving Wife.

A correspondent sends the following -
the PhrenOIOgicG Journal
If YOU would have loving wife, be as
gentle in your words after as before
marriage treat her quite as tenderly when
a matron as miss; don't make her maid
of all work and ask her why she looks
less tidy and neat than when "you first
knew her." don't buy cheap, tough beef,
and scold her because II does not come on
the table "porter house," don't grumble
about squalling babies If you can't keep up
a nursery" and remember that baby "
may take after papa in his disposition
don't smoke and chew tobacco, and thus
shatter your nerves, and spoil your temper
and make your bresth a nuisance, and then
complain that your wife declines TO kiss
you; go home joyous and cheerful to your
wife and tell her the good news you have
heard, and not silently put on your hat and
go'ou to the "cluk or lodge" and LET
her afterwards learn that you spest the
evening at the opera or at fancy ball with
Mrs. Dash. Love your wife, be patient
remember tina YOU are not perfect, but
try to be- let whisky, tobacco and vulgar
company alone; spend your evenings with
your wife, and live decent Christian life,
and your wife will be loving and true-if
you did not marry thoughtless beauty
without sense or worth; If you did, who
is to blame if you suffer the consequence

was tossed about many hours when he was
picked up by the steamer Enterprise, Cap

of the disaster for a long time in the hope
of saving life and property. Mcfarland
says at almost the very time Of the disaster
the passengers and crew were congratulat-
ing themselves on the tempestuous voyage
being nearly finished, and rejoicing in the
fact that in one short hour more they
would land at Neville. There were Ger
tainly one hundred and eighty souls on

Peach Trees for Fuel.--The Western
Gardener, Leavenworth, Kansas, makes the
novel suggestion that peach trees be raised
from seed, planted about ten feet apart, and
after standing four years, the alternate
trees be cut down for fuel, and then the
others after two or three years. In this
way 1t thinks fuel may be cheaply supplied
on the prairies, in addition TO furnishing
good crops Of peaches. The trees cut are
expected to reproduce themselves from
sprouts.

Churn More Milk or Skim Deeper.

A correspondent of the Mark Lane Err
press saws: From observation, believe too
many butter makers do not skim as deep
or churn rs much milk as they ought. |
hear them say often that they don't like to
get so much milk, or sour cream, in with
the cream. 1t is a common practice with
most butter makers to have skinner that
is perforated with holes that the milk may
pass through into the pan from which the
milk is being taken. II any one has bet
ter reason for not Swimming deeper, l shall
be pleased to hear it, and herewith give my
reason why | think We ought to skim
deeper and churn more milk with the
cream.
First, there are but few dairy houses so
far removed from the odors of the kitchen,
swill pail or barrels, or some decaying veg
etable matter as to keep the cream from
absorbing odors that iniure the flavor of
the butter; and the cream must first re
ceive, or have these odors pass through it,
before they can reach the milk, as II is most
exposed The milk must. therefore, be
most pure, and, if churned with the cream,
will aid in taking up the odors from the
butter BY churning only the cream, the
dash of the churn must, as we think, injure
the butter globules and make the butter
salvy, as the friction is more directly APP
Piled To them than would be the case il
milk was mixed with the cream.
There are times when the milk sours be
fore all the cream is up; yet the milk must
be nearly, if not quite, as good, from the
same COW that is being fed the same feed
in warm morning as il is in cool morn
ing. But we often get twice the amount OF
cream in cool days that we do IN warm
DAYS, and the quantity is better. Take for
instance. the Gath of August, hot sultry
day, the cream hardly paid for the labor.
Now, take the Goth of the same month,
1869, good cool day that gave nice yield
of cream. Is it 10 be supposed that there
is that difference in the milk produced
from the same cows ON those days, when
the cows were fed in the same pasture,
that there was in the amount OF butter
made from their milk by skimming the
cream onlyY ! have thought that when
the milk is brought in in a heated condi-
ton, and placed in a warm room, that per
haps many of the butter globulcs were eX-
ploded by the heat, and that they mingle
with the milk, like alcohol with water, but
to churn all the milk would be to get more
butter

fROf. LANGLEY, WTltluX IIUIl VIC w
servatory. Allegheny, September 70, to the
Pittsburgh Commercial, says:
The appearance Of spots on the sun large
enough to be visible to the naked eye, is q
rare occurrence, but it may now be noticed
by any one who takes the trouble to observe
them. The aspect OF the sun, through a
large telescope, is one, just now, of singular
interest, and 1t seems to claim special atten-
ton from the observers.
Here. where the remarkable changes OF
the solar surface have formed the subject OF
remarkable observation, daily maps OF the
position of the spots are made, and their
singular variations have been the object OF
most interested scrutiny
The side Of the sun now turned toward
us is. to-day, covered with hundreds of
them, OF all Sizes and in all stages of growth,
while the opposite side, to be presented to
US few days later, Is comparatively
bare.
The area Of one of the spots, which is
now near the centre Of the disk, has been
computed from careful measurements and
found to exceed z, 800, 600 square miles. Such
immense numbers convey no very definite
impression, and perhaps more vivid idea
of the size may be gained by comparing 1t
with that of the earth, whose entire area is
less than tenth part Of that just given.
This is the area Of the penumbra-an i'm
mense expanse Of variegaied forms, crossed
by channels and convergent streams Of lu-
minous matter, all shifting under some ac-
ton like that of whrlwind which is twist
ing them from one position to another, and
changing their forms from hour To hour.
The current sometimes appears TO rush
downward, carrying with it great masses of
the luminous matter to lower depths, and
opening, as it does so, black cavities of a
size commensurate with the scale on which
this action is carried.
The largest of these cavities is seen to be
overhung with parts of the brilliant surface,
which visibly break away in enormous por-
tons snd sink in it out of sight; indeed, it
is quite within the truth to say that globe
the size of the world might be dropped in
without touching either side. II is impos-
sible 10 convey an adequate idea of the Inn
preston of infinite and exhaustless energy,
of which one is conscious, while beholding
this with adequate optical aid. Masses, the
size of whole continents, are utterly
changed in shape or disappear from one day
To another, sometimes the observer watches
them, and the whole spot is, to all APP
pearance, being slowly rotated by the
cyclones which are visibly working there.
This is one of many centers OF similar
action, not all on the same scale, but baf-
fling the eve by their number and incessant
change of FORM which the craftsman iabors
after in vain, and which even the photog-
rapher can but imperfectly render. At
one of our largest observatories, the pho
tographer is employed TO make daily
chart of these changes, and an inspection

Near Winesburg, Ohio, few days
ago. Frederick Otzenburgcr, who was
feeding a threshing machine, had run
through all but the last sheaf OF wheat,
when he beckoned the driver to increase
the motion, and at its highest speed thrust
his head into the machine, and had the
whole upper part of his head taken OH.
He lived but a few hours.
