DEw.-On no subject have there been stran-
ger and more incorrect notions than on the ma
ture and origin of dew. Even within two
hundred years it has been supposed that the
dew was product of the plants. 1t was sup
posed to return in the morning to its source,
and it has been confidently affirmed that if
dew were put in an egg shell and placed at the
foot of ladder, it would carry the shell to the
top of the ladder, and leave it there as it as
cendcd.
Even at the present day the commonness Of
the phrase, falling dew shows how errone-
GUS are the prevalent notions. The dew never
falls, at least no perceptible distance; it is
deposited from the layer or air in actual con-
tact with the bedewed object. That it does not
fall is evident from the under side of plate
of ice cream being bedewed. The coolncss
necessary to produce dew is produced by radia-
tion. The clearness of dewy night is not
produced by the deposition of the dew, but
the dew is produced by clearness. A heavy
dew proves the clearness of the air and warns
the astronomer to lose no time in getting out
his telescope.

= Prussia has greatly improved in agricul-
ture in the last fifty years. The land now sup
ports twice as many inhabitants as it did in
1S2O though greater space is devoted to feed
ing cattle, and to the raising of plants for
manufacturing purposes. There are now in
existence in Prussia, three hundred and fifty
nine associations for the improvement of the
soil, for drainage, irrigation and the building of
dikes.
= Two little girls were heard on our streets
discussing the war in Europe. They differed in
Prussia would whip, and the other asserting
with equal confidence that France would be the
victor. At last the champion of Prussia set
tied the question by an unanswerable argument
''I know said she, "that the Dutchmen will
whip. My pa is Frenchman and my ma is
Dutchman. They fight every night, and ma
always licks"

EFFECT OF THE FooD OF Cows ON THEIR
M1LK-It has lately bean announced, as the
result of careful and long-continued investiga-
ton, that the nature of the food given to cows
does not produce the slightest effect upon the
character or richness of their milk; the differ
ence being greater or less per centage of wa
ter. The experiment was tried of feeding the
same animals successvely with hay alone; then,
successively, with hay mixed with starch, oil 3l
varying proportion of nitrogenized food. The
milk was very carefully analyzed, after each
change of food, without showing the slightest
variation in its chemical constitution.
The conclusion was, therefore, arrived at
that the variation or Improvement in the quail
ity of the milk is to be accomplished rather by
a careful regard to the breed than to the food
supplied to the animal.
The remarks, of course, do not apply to the
peculiar taste impaired to milk in consequence
of the character of the food of the animal !;
since it is we'll known that the milk of COWS
which have fed upon garlic very soon furnish
es evidence of that fact to the taste.

MAKING Ice IN NEW YoRK.-The United
States Ice and Refrigerating Company has set
up an ice-making machine at the Morgan Iron
Works, at the foot of Ninth street, East river.
The Knickerbocker and Washington Ice Com
panies have, between them, laid the last straw
upon the back of the public camel, and the
q. S. I. and R. Company proposes to lift the
straw off by furnishishing ice at S150 per ton
the price which is now asked for it by the 100
pounds. 1t is calculated that, by the best of
these machines, ice can be made, in this or any
other country, at the cost OF fuel and labor. A
twenty horsepower engine IS guaranteed
to produce thirteen tons of ice every twenty
four hours, or eleven hundred pounds per hour.
The apparatus has been set up on the wharf,
under shed which belongs to the iron-works
mentioned, and is driven by horsepower: The
entire process consists lii bringing water IN con-
tact with vaporized ether, and in then conden-
sing the ether again for another application.
One of the two pipes connected with the appa-
ratus is cold enough to freeze the hand, and the
other one is hot enough to fry it. The cold one
is called the expand-pipe and the hot one the
force-pipe. The coldness of the expand-pipe
is caused by the vaporization of the ether, and
the warmth of the force-pipe by the heat which
is carried off from the water. The freezers are
cast iron boxes, with four hollow partitions
running through them, and, while the machine
is at work, these are kept full Of ether. 1t is
said that all Irishman, one of the laborers en-
ployed to work the machine, quickly edged off
upon seeing the laws of nature apparently sus-
pended, and thick coats of ice forming on the
Sides of each partition. He evidently regarded d
the whole thing as an invention of the Evil
One, and not to be worked upon for any con-
sideration that money could present. Paddys
piety came out particularly strong upon that
occasion, and he set very wholesome and sa-
worry example to many a Protestant hypocrite
who is not so conscientious as to the means of
earning money. You might as we'll have asked
him to eat his dinner with lightning because
the lightning was "forked," as have expected
him to take gulp of water cooled by the melt.
ing of that ice. No indeed! "Divil bit'
would he have to do with it.

dlers; and yet, FIVE such binders will be work
ed very hard to be after the reaper, going over
the same area I discovered this in harvesting
my grain crop, and asked an intelligent freed
man to explain it. He promptly replied,
"Easy enough accounted for, sir; the reaper
gets it all and the Graders don't" The in
creased yield of field in harvesting with
reaper over the cradle is at least the seed sown.
But no one need attempt to use reaper un-
less his land is especially prepared for 1t.
Much has to be done land great deal to be
learned before it can be done) on all Southern
plantations before improved implements can
be successfully and economically used, and the
sooner that much is done the more prohtaDle
will Southern farming become. The lntroduc-
tion of skilled labor will not be the panacea
for our ills, because, forsooth they are as little
acquainted with our rough lands as our labor
is with their improved inn plements. Two years
400 Northern man settled in this vicinity,
and in stocking his plantation supplied him
self with every variety of improved implement,
from the huge clod-crusher to the delicate
hand-drill, and withal brought an abundance
of white labor to use these beautiful tools to
which they had been accustomed a few days
since he told me his white labor had proved a
failure, and his costly implements were on hand
only to be used as he would educate the labor
ers of the country to their use. His plantation
was untitled for skilled labor as we'll as for i'm
proved implements; and so are large MAORI
ty of the plantations throughout the South.
A rudimentary preparation must be begun,
and need only progress gradually. A too sud-
den influx of skilled labor and improved i'm
plements would retard rather than perfect
Southern husbandry. The intelligence of the
landed proprietor directing and controlling the
muscle of the negro to the use of labor-saving
machines will in few short years rejuvenate
the South, and make it what it should be-the
garden spot of the world

HEART-RENDING CALAAnTY.-The Point
Pleasant (Va.) Journal, of recent date, re-
lates the following truly heart-rending calami-
| ty:
A gentleman Just from Rome county gives
the particulars of most heart rending caaml-
ty that happened on Spring Creek in that
county, and BY which one family was berett of
four children in less than an hour.
A lady, whose name our informant had for
gotten, residing upon the above named creek,
went down to it in the morning for thepurposc
of doing ''the weeks washing" taking with
her the youngest child, an infant about year
old, leaving the other three at the house.
While engaged at her work she heard sup
pressed screams at the house; taking up her
little child from the soiled clothes on which it
was sitting, she placed it in an empty wash tub
| to keep it from crawling into the creek during
her absence and hastened to the house where
she met her eldest child with its head fright
fully disfgured and swollen. She hastily
cleaned from this one that the three children
| had crawled under the house in search of eggs;
that while under something hurt them, and
that the other two were still under the house
The mother upon looking under the house
found them dead, with several moccasin snakes
IA very poisonous and deadly species) crawling
around their bodies. The neighbors were
alarmed, and by their assistance the snakes
were killed, and the unfortunate children ia.
ken ont, their bodies presenting frightful and
sickening appearance. BY this time the elder
one was a corpse. The mother in her despair
and agony had forgotten until now her little
one at the creek, and upon going down to the
creek for it, it was only to find it also corpse
in the creek. 1t is supposed the little child
climbed up in the tub and was holding on to
the lower edge Of it when the tub upset, rolling
the child into the water below and drownding
it. 1t is said the mothers grief was so great

TALE BEARINe.-Never repeat story unless
you are certain it is correct, and not even then
unless something is to be gained, either of in
tcrest to yourself or for the good of the person
concerned. Tattling is mean and wicked
practice, and he who indulges in it grows more
fond of it in proportion as he is successful. If
you have no good to say of your neighbor, new
er reproach his character by telling that which
is false. He who tells you the faults of others
intends to tell others Of your faults, and so the
dish of news is handed from one to another till
the table becomes enormous.
