A Scottish Idea Of Geology.

Geology is better understood than
formerly, but there have been amusing
incidents of the misapprehension OF ig-
norant people about the work of geolo-
gists. A peasant in England, who had
been watching Professor Sedgwick break
up rocks with his mallet, said to his
companion, pityingly, " Poor man ! n
little soft herer' touching his head.
But the following incident of Scotland,
told by DR.. Mcleod, is more amusing:
There is one science the value of
which it is very difficult to make a
Highlander comprehend. and that is
mineralogy. He connects botany with
the art of healing; astronomy with
guidance from the stars, or navigation |;
chemistry with dyeing, brewing, etc. !;
but " chopping bits Of the rock" as he
calls it-this has always been q mystery.
\ shepherd, while smoking his pipe
at a small Highland inn, was commune
eating to another in Gaelic his expe-
rience of mad " Englishmen," as he
called them.
"There was one said the narrator,
who gave me his bag to carry to the
inn by short cut across the hills, while
he walked by another road. | was won

4 Sad Bridal Eve,

There's many slip 'twixt cup and
lip" is an axiom of ancient times. but
can be applied with every sense OF pro
priety in the present sorrowful instance.
On Monday night last, young man in
the employ Of Judge Strong, of Setau.
ket, named Du Troit. left the beach in
q small boat for Port Jefferson. for the
purpose OF getting II suit OF clothing
which he had previously ordered, and
some trinkets for young lady. From
the residence Of his employer a girl OF
nineteen, quite handsome, and withal
good natWcd, accompanied him to the
beach, and babe him goodbye as he
pushed Off for the other side. To this
girl he was engaged TO be married. and
il was for his wedding outfit he was 60
ing TO Port Jefferson, as on "Wednesday
they were to be married.
From that time to the present moth
ing has been heard from Du Troit. As
he did not present himself ON Tuesday
morning, those who We're interested in
him felt worried, and began to make
inquiries regarding him. No one had
seen him. The boat IN which he de
parted could not be found. The night
was dark. and it occurred to some that
lie might have met with an accident
Wednesday came and went. and 50 did
Thursday but brought no tidings of Du
Troit. On Friday it was thought best
to drcdgc the bay The boat was found
at the bottom. near the Port Jefferson
landing; but. Notwithstanding the
dredging was most thorough. not the
slightest Vcstige of the object of the
search was discovered. The people now
entertain Tie belief that he has been
ioully dcait with. If he persisted in the
hay his body would have been found.
The poor girl is completely broken
down with GRIEF. TO her the stroke is
hard one, as all her hopes are thus
blighted on the eve of the wedding day.

dated at the Teuleries, strongly con
dennis the conduct of the Versailles
Government in attacking Paris.
The T5legraph's correspondent says
the LIST Prussian army corps has been
ordered TO hold itself ready to march to
Paris. The reign of terror continues
within that city.
The Versailists are complete mas
tiers of the situation AT Neuilly, bat spare
the inhabitants as far as possible from
bombardment. The fire of Fort Vale
rien is consequently very slow. There
was sharp muslletry firing on the 10th
in the Bots de Boulogne.
The Mot d. Ordre says the losses OF
the Nationals on Sunday were 225 killed
and 49, wounded. 1t is represented that
the main attack of the Versailles army
on the city will be made in the direc-
ton of Montrouge Vernisole. A mem
Der of the Commune was killed at the
outposts.
Picard has issued the following cir
cular to the projects: THE insur.
gents have met decisive check. Our
troops have captured redoubt at Cha
tillon, with 1000 prisoners. Flourens
and Duval are dead, and Henry is a
prisoner. Twenty-Five of the Commun.
lists have resigned, and Assy has been
imprisoned by his own followers. The
Government is happy to inform you of
the condition of affairs which it has eff
fectcd."
Baron Wilhelm Won Teghetoff, the
distinguished Austrian Admiral who
won the naval battle of LISA, in the
Adratic, in 1868, and who superinten-
ded in 1868 the removal of the remains
of ex- Emperor Macmillan from Mexico
TO Trieste, died on the 9th inst. His
residence was Vienna.
The insurgents have been dislodged
from the bridge Of Neuilly. A fierce
cannonade is kept up between Chatillon
and Forts lssy and Vanvres. 1t is APP
parently the purpose of the commander
of the Versailles army to completely
invest the capital. Lines are already
established on the left bank of the Seine.
BagneuX has been occupied, and it is
expected that the occupation of L'hay
and Choissy Leroi will soon follow.
--Favrc, in a speech TO the National
Assembly. said that all the Powers had
expressed their sympathies with the
Government of Versailles as the only
legitimate Government of France. He
also stated that the German Admins
tration in France, General Fabrice, de-
clined overtures made by the Commune,
which he believed must shortly succumb
TO the Government.
A Paris correspo ndent interviewed
the Republican Central Committee on
the llth. They confessed their disap-
pointment and disgust at the work Of
the Commune, which has apcd that Of
the rcvolutionists Of 1893. They say :
"Their folly will ALLEVIATE .he provinces,
and array all the world against Us. We
must resume the power we intrusted to
the Commune. They are incapable OF
legislating or directing military opera
tons. We, who created them, must set
them aside. Nothing is left for us now
but to annihilate Versailles, or be ami
hilated Unless we overthrow Yer
sailles. we and the Republic are forever
lost =

Validity Of Conductors, Checks.

An interesting case was recently tried
III the Superior Court of Baltimore. The
plaintiff, on May !, 1867, purchased
through ticket from New York TO Balti-
more, and proceeded on the Philadel-
phia, Wilmington and Baltimore Rail
road as far as Perryville, where he loft
the train-the conductor, after leaving
Philadelphia, having taken up the
through ticket, and given the plaintiff
a check il. lieu of it. On the 9th, the
plaintiff got upon the train for Balti-
more at lIavre de Grace, and offered the
check in payment of his fare, which the
conductor refused, notwithstanding the
plaintiffs assertion that on leaving the
train at Perryville, on May !, he was in
formed by the ticket agent there that
day. On the plaintiffs refusal to pay
the fare IN money, he was elected. In
an action to recover for this election, the
Court instructed the jury that the plain
tiiF was not entitled to recover, unless
more force was used than was necessary
TO put him off, and unless he was put off
at u point where there was no station
house at hand, or no place for shelter
and food. The Court also held that if
the check had been Endorsed in writing
/ by the ticket agent or by the conductor,
/ May |, it was good for another train at a
subsequent time, and would have bound
the company but that the conductor
OF the train, May 8, was not required to
take ones word, unsupported by a writ
ten authorization.

is Your Orchard All Right!

Have you top-dressed the soil around
about every bearing tree with lime or
with wood ashes? If not, it will pay to
scatter two or three bushels of quick
lime, as soon as it is Stacked, over the
surface of the ground. as far each way
as the longest branches extend. The
earlier it is done in the growing season,
the more satisfactory will be the effect
on the bearing tree. IF wood ashes are
so scarce that only one or two bushels
per tree can be applied, let them be
scattered at once. Barn-yar manure
also constitutes an excellent top-dress-
ing around about fruit trees.
Have you pruned away all the super
numcrary, worthless and decaying BRAN
ches from every tree top? If you have
not, procure good pruning saw, climb
into the top, and then cut out the bran
ches, when they are too thick. Let
branches be removed with q smooth cut,
after which, carry kettle of liquid
grating wax into the tree-top, and with
a paint brush smear the wounds with
warm wax, and press Il piece of paper
into the wax which has been laid on the
wound before it cools. Avoid the prac-
tice Of cutting off large branches. Fruit
trees shold be so pruned when they are
small, so that it will seldom be necessary
to serve a large branch.
Have you searched the branches Ct
your apple trees for the eggs Of the tent
caterpillar, which are glued to small
twigs near the extremities Of the outer
limbs? If not, take an hour or two 'oc-
casonally, and collect the eggs OF these
depredators before they hatch. Insects
are now so numerous that the price OF
fruit is measured by unremitting vigil
lance.

FactS About Norway.

The Storthing Legislature of Norway
assembled on the lst of February. The
constitution is so democratic that the
Storthing consists of but one House.
There are IL members, consisting of II
peasants, 26 government officials, >
other officials, II merchants, 3 lawyers,
3 manufacturers. and artisan. The
Norwegian telegraph is completed TO
North Cape. OF 81 vessels the past sea-
son that engaged in the walrus and seal
fishery. six were wrecked; the remain
der took $50 walruses, 2,2i0 seals, 9S po-
lar bears, S13 rcindeers, of the aggre-
gate value Of 25,973 specie dollars. The
yield OF the small whale and shark fish
cry was 2S.269 specie dollars. During
the year 1869 the number Of Norwegian
vessels arriving in the United States
was 80 number departing from United
States, 81. Value OF imports in Norway
in 1869, 24,000,0O0 specie dollars of eX
ports. 1000, 600 specie dollars. The
principal imports are cereals; the prin-
cipal exports, fish and lumber. During
the same year the number Of Swedish

been good the past two seasons in both
Kingdoms, and the emigration to the
United States during 1870 was only
about 25,000-haIf of what it was in

A HORRIBLE ACADEMIA most horri-
BILE accident occurred a few miles west
of Mattoon, ILL.,, in the edge of Moultrie
county, on Tuesday afternoon, resulting,
in the death, in the most shocking
manner, of a young son, aged l3. OF
Squire Flemming.
The boy had been to Summit, the first
station west of that city, for the family
mail, and was returning home on horse
back. Reaching Whitley's creek, the
boy rode his horse into the stream, and.
stopping it for water, ran his hand
through slip-noose of a rope halter
about the horses neck, dropped the bri
die rein, and was reading. Some wild
ducks flew up out of the water, fright
ening the the horse, when it threw the
boy from the saddle, and, starting head
long, dragged and whirled him at its
heels for three or four miles, until every
shred Of clothing, including his boots
even, We're torn from his bruised and
mangled body, and until the fatal rope
that bound him to his dreadful fate was
fairly worn out, and he was left dead
at the roadside.-lNattoon Journal.

1t is reported that Thiers, instead
of following up the advantages gained,
and allowing his army to enter Paris,
has commenced negotiations with the
Commune, and that he has offered to
concede many of its demands, and to
exempt the leaders from punishment,
in consideration of its recognizing the
authority Of the Assembly. The report
causes intense excitement among con-
sentative Deputies and in the army.
The forces of the Commune are still in
large numbers outside of Paris, but in
extremely critical positions.
