Ice Mountain in west Tireinia,

On the east bank Of the North river, in
Hampshire county, West Virginia, is
perhaps one ofthe greatest curiosities in the
State. It is literally an ice mountain,
from four hundred to FIVE hundred feet
high The Western side Of this mountain
is covered with loose stone Of light color
from base to summit. BY removing the
stone, pure, solid, ice can be found in ia
warmest days in Summer, and it has been
found there as late as the middle Of Sep
TENDER. It may exist throughout the
entire year, if the rocks were removed
to sufficient depth. What seems strange
is that the side of the mo untain where
the ice is found is exposed to the sun all
day, and it is said the sun does not have
as much effect ia melting the ice as con-
tinuous rains. At the base of the moun~
tain is spring of water very clear aud
cold. .......-.- s.. -s....

way into the spring house, where they be-

moved they soon recover life aud Mo ton !,

RESERVE POWER.

Many persons have gone to the grave
in the very prime Of life. victim Of over
work. By the term "oyer-work' we
mean not only the work that is be-
yond the strength of the worker, but also
that which is up to the full measure
Of his strength. The Herald of Health.
has on the subject the following judicious
remarks: a
It is not wise to work constantly up to
the highest rate Of which we are capable
IF the engineer of the railroad were to
keep the speed of his train up to the high
est rate he could attain with his engine,
it would soon be used up. If horse is
driven at the top of his speed for any length
Of time he Is ruined. It is we'll enough to
to try the power, occasionly Of horse
or an engine, by putting on all the mo-
tson they will bear, but not continuously.
All machinest construct machines so
that there shall be reserve force. IF the
power required is four-horse, then they
make a six-horse power In that case
it makes it work easy and last long A
man who has to do twelve honest hours of
labor in twenty-four and no more should
do but nine OR ten hours work. The re-
serve power keeps the body in good repair.
1t rounds out the frame to fnll proper
ton. Itkecps the mind cheerful. hope
full, happy. The person with no reserve
force is always incapable Of taking any
more responsibility than he already has.
A little extra exertion puts him out of
breath. He cannot increase his work for
an hour without danger of an explosion
Such are generally pale, dyspeptic, blood
less, irritable, despondant. gloomy-we pity
chem. The great source of power in the
Individuals the blood. Itruns the ma
chinery Of life1 and upon it depends our
health aud strength. A mill on stream
where water is scanty can be worked but
a portion of the time. So man with
little good blood can do bat little work.
The reserve power must be stored up
in this fluid 1t is an old saying among
stock raisers that blood tells. It is
equally true that blood tells in the sense in
which we Use the word. II it is only good
blood, then the more Of it the better
When the reserve power of an indSid-
ual becomes low, it is an indication that q
change is necessary, and that it is best to
stop expanding and go to accumulation,
just as the miller does when the water
gets low in the pond. Such course
would save many a person physical bank,

Origin OF the Spices.

Nutmeg is the kernel of small SIN Doth
pearshaped fruit, that grows on tree in
Molucca Islands, and other parts Of the
East. The trees commence bearing in
their seventh year, and continue until
they are seventy or eighty years old
Around the nutmeg. or kernel, is bright
brown shell. This she'll has a soft scarlet
covering, which, when fattened out is
known as mace. The best nutmegs are
solid, and emit oil w1ene preked with a
pin.
Ginger is the root OF : shrub hsst
known in Asia, and now cultivated in the
Sierra Leone. The sten grows thrse or
four feet high, and dies every year
There are two varieties of ginger, the
white and the black-caused by taking
more or less care in selecting and pre-
pairing the roots, which are always dug in
the winter, when the stems are withered.
The white siz the best.
Cinnamon is the inner bark of beau
tiful tree, native of Ceylon, that grows
from twenty to thirty feet in height, and
lives to be centuries old. The United
States has imported nearly $500 worth
of cinnamon in single year.

JUNIUs -Junius has bsen identified
again this time by circumstantial evil
dence that seems irresistible-and again
Sir Philip Francis is proved the very man .
/ A lady at Beth, in ITO, received an
anonymous note enclosing a copy Of verses
The verses were in a natural, the note, in
feigned hand /; and the feigned hand of
Junius. The natural band is proved to
be that of Mr.. Richard Tilghman, Of
Philadelphia, a relative of Francis, who
was with Francis in Bath at che time,
and who, in letter to his relative (pub-
ished in the Life of Francis,) quoted two
lines of the verses in way to show that
they were familiar to both. Junius must
have been one of the two, and it is GER
certain that Tilghmaa was not the man.
