A Remarkable Spring.

4 correspondent sends the Journal of Che mistry the following account of remarkable spring in Texas
 "About sixty miles north of Gslsna, near the town of Liberty, there is spring, the wa ter of which is quite acid, similatlag lsmon- Ads, and those who taste it like 1t so much that they driuk it almost immoderately. When yeu fssl hot it is quite delicious and under any circumstances, whether hot or cold, the drinking of it promotes precipitation, with no unpleasant effect aftsrward. The spring has no apparent outlet or inlet. It is probably sixty feet across 1t, and it is covered with a white froth or foam. which on close examina. ton appears like cream tartar on wine caak. It kills insects Worms, and other small animals that come near and use it, No fish or other evidence of life is seen within its watsrs."

Fatalism Illustrated.

4 Hardshell Baptist minister, living some where on the frontier of Missouri, was iR the habit of saying to bis family and to his church: Friends, you need nor take any unusual care of your lives; the day of your death was written 8 before the foundation of the world, and you cannot alter it. His wife observed when he left on Saturday to meet one of his frontier missionary engagements, that he dres- ssd the flint of his rife with unusual care, put in dry powder, fresh tow, and took every pains to make sure that the gun would go of in eoSe he came upon an Indian. ~
 It struck her one day as she saw him in the saddle, with rife on his shoulder, that his con . duct contradicted his teachings and she said to him: My dear why do you take this rife with you7 fit was written before the foun- d&4Jr-sf the world that you were to be kil- led during this trip by an Indian, that rife won't prevent it; and if you are not ts be kiI- led, of course the rife is unnecessary; so why take it with you at all ~
 "Yes," he replied, ito be sure, my dear, of course you are all very right and that is very proper view; but, see here, my dear--uow -really-but then. you see my dear suppose I should meet an Indian while am gone, and his time had come and hadn't my rife with me. what would he do2 Yes, my dear, We must all contribute our part toward the fulfill msnt ofthe dscrees of Providence 1"

LIVES,

SO long ago as 1879 the errors of re-sur-
veys, in which the secular change In the
variation of the magnetic needle is neg
lectcd, were observed by philosophic writ
ers. An established meridian line seems
to have been first suggested for remedy
by Rittenhouse. Others from time to time
have recommended It; Gillespie urged 1t
in 1855 and in the VERMONT PHOENIX an
article appeared in 1866 showing its use.
liut the late Prof. Sa 'uuel +. Miller, of the
Massachusetts Agricultural College, was
The first to persuade legislature TO enact a
statute causing meridian line to be cstab-
lished in each County of the state. one of
these lines is well worth visiting; although
but little OF the labor OF fixing the line is
visible after the work is done. BY invita-
ton of one OF the commissioners, l visited
the line in Franklin County, Mass, while
being established. II is in Greenfield, sit
uate near the junction Of the Green with
Deeried river, ON plateau of pleasant
land owned by George w. Potter, ESP
The stone posts limiting the line are of
granite from Munson, furnished by Loren
~ Park of Bernardston Each post is
They are set deep in the ground, leaving
but about two feet above, 200 feet apart,
aud three in number. The statute requires
the posts to be set In Il true meridian or
north and south line, which shall be de-
termined by asst ronomic observation, and
not by the magnetic needle, which is not
unlrequently taken incorrectly for pI'iind-
Jdcie evidence of where north is. This
part of the work was done by a State COM
missioner, Mr.. Edward Prevear of Leom-
mister, the inventor and patentce of 1.-THE
Watchmakers Transit" an instrument
for determining within second the time
the sun crosses the meridian. The method
OF comparing compass with the meridian
line is this: set the compass over or upon
the central point, and range the sight with
target placed over the centre of the cop
per cap covering either extreme post; the
va ration of the needle from the line can
then be read Whether these posts retain
their position permanently, remains to be
seen. And, where practicable, possibly
the points would be less subject to the vi
cssitudes of change, if set on benches
made in solid rock. Such line in a town
or county Is of great use 10 the surveyorin
finding the variation of the needle, which
should be noted in every survey with
compass. Whoever shall induce the next
/ legislature of Vermont TO pass II law for
the establishment Of meridian lines, will
do lasting good for the State; for it is a
good law and not to be gainsaid.
Mr. prevear gives some interesting items
in connection with the meridian lines in
different parts of the State. The present
variation of the needle ut Northampton
seems To be ten degrees; at Greenfield ten
degrees and thirty minutes; on Boston
Common eleven degrees and fifteen min
utes. The difference of time between Bos-
ton and Greenfield amounts to six minutes
and ten seconds as derived from asrOnom-
ic observation. QUINCY QUERY.
