MAN FOUND DEAD.-A man named
Taylor got off the afternoon train over
the C. a. P. road at Portland, on Tues
day hst and went over to Warrenton,
where he stayed over night. The next
afternoon he proceeded to Rush Run,
where he was noticed lounging about
the grounds where some young people
were holding a picnic. From the time
of his getting off the train to where he
was last seen, he was greatly under the
influence Of liquor. Rather late in the
evening, after the social gathering had
dispersed. he called at some house for
lodging, but was refused admlttance on
account OF his drunken condition. Some
one directed him to a disreputable boat
where rum is sold. This was the last
seen of him until yesterday morning,
when his body was found on Little
Rush Run bar, lying on his face. Some
suppose that in attempting to get on the
boat be missed his footing and fell into
the river. The jury at the Coroners in
quest rendered a verdict that he came
to his death by accidental drowning
There was a confusion on the mans
head which places the case in some
mystery, and the constable has gone to
Rush Run to investigate the matter.
He was about twenty.seven years age,
had two dollars and fifty cents in his
pockets, a silver watch, and a bottle OF
whisky.

Hor, ALL Hor.-There is very little
use of grumbling, for that don't mend
the matter, but we must be permitted to
put in a protest against this terrible
weather. After we have "larded the
lean earth" all day, we feel as if we had
won the right to rise to our feet, shake
our right fist at the setting sun, and
with our left hand and pocket hand
kerchief mop the perspiration from our
Websteran brow and remark, in thun'
der tones, confound the heat We say
this calmly and dispassiouately, after
having emptied from our boots the third
quart Of perspiration, that such weather
at this season of the year was never
known before August would not be
ashamed OF it. lfthis sort Of thing contin-
ues, if the weather gets proportionately
hotter we will have to emigrate Where?
Why-let's see-why, to Alaska. Hur.

Where the Esquimaux sup upon uuffies

And the while polar bears upon Esqui-

Where the sailor might sail the knichpeck

Were not that broad stream frozen OF
course.
Well, that is the only land meath the broad
That promises GOODNESS to fat men like

within three or four inches Of the top in
which plant the seed and cover to the re-
quisite depth, This barrel or cast may be
placed in any convenient situation where
sufficient room or space can be obtained,
and around which arrange lattice work or
brush, to sustain the out-spreading plants
in whatever manner may be found most
convenient for affording access at all times
to both the barrel and the plants.
Upon the outer side of the cask insert
pipe of convenient size, through which
water may be introduced to the lower or
under half of the cask daily, or as often as
occasion may require this portion of the
cask should be kept constantly filled with
water. Midway of the cask the slaves
should be perforated with several half-inch
holes, for the free escape of any surplus
water, and at the same time to permit the
admission of an equal distribution OF air /;
this purpose would be better accomplished
if the holes were bored upon line at
equal distances apart around the cask.
The effect of this arrangement, as will
be readily seen, is that through the capil-
larry attraction of the soil sufficient mois-
ture is absorbed at all times to nourish the
plants, while the admission of air can be
controlled at pleasure by opening or
closing the apertures upon the sides Of the
cask
AS to the production of cucumbers alone
under this plan, it has been found to greatly
exceed any other; the yield, under proper
management, from the generating tub"
has been found amply sufficient to ill a
closely packed barrel with sailed pickles.
