The City Of Ragusa--Stormy Voyage of
the Miniature Ship--Extraordinary
Speed. G 1f!f. % fa It -

Speed. ~ 4'.l. '}
An English paper says; The tiny
craft, the City of Ragusa, registered
tunnage one tun seventeen cwt.,
after having crossed the Atlantic in
thirty six days, and having gallantly
braved the perils OF the most tenn
pestuous weather, has arrived in
safety and anchored in Queenstown
harbor. AT five o'clock on Wednes-
day. May 90, the City of Ragusa
left New York harbor for Liverpool.
When the shores of the Empire State
sunk from view, and open waters lay
around these adventurous naviga-
tors, Capt. Primorez turned his lit
tie vessel northward, regarding that
as the best course to take at this
time of year, and for three days she
went in excellent trim. Her speed
was extraordinary, and on the third
day she made 160 miles. That was
her greatest speed during any one
day of the voyage, but frequently
for portions of days she ran seven
knots an hour, the average speed
during the voyage being four and a
half knots an hour. Bad weather
set in off the Banks. of the New
Eonndland-o and for ton days a snrins
of gales tossed them about in a ter
rife sea. The gale subsiding, the
captain was able to set his vessels
head to the eastward. 1cebergs
were frequently seen in that latitude
at that time, and sharp lookout
had to be kept. The ice was avoid
ed,and the ship continued her course.
The weather remained exceedingly
heavy, and there were rare periods
of calm. A succession of heavy
gales came on, and as it was impos-
sible to take observations, the course
was taken by dead reckoning
throughout. From the beginning t o
the end of the passage the captain
saw the sun rise and set only once,
and during the remaining days the
weather was too thick to permit him
to make observations. During all
the trials Heyter (the "crew'' be-
hayed III 4 most patient and manly
spirit, never complaining, and the
bravery of the two men seemed to
be emulated by the extraordinary
endurance Of a splendid brindled
bull terrier, which bore all the suf-
ferings of the journey with as much
fortitude as his fellow-voyagers.
On the 29th ult. the vessel sailed
120 miles. On the 1st inst. she was
off the Fastnet,and then as Primorez
and his~"crew' felt themselves in
comparative safety they amused
themselves with catching a young
shark. While following a piece of
beef a moose was slipped around his
tail, and he was pulled ON board.
His tail was hung at the bowsprit,
where it is still to be observed.
The speed with which the passage
was accomplished is not the least
extraordinary feature in the voyage,
for the little vessel actually beat
large ships, many Of them having
taken SO days from New York to
OueenstOwnt s. - .r.... ... t-,

Orchard and Nursery.

The newly-set trees ought not to
be neglected during the hot dry
weather of August, when a little
timely attention and care would save
many which would otherwise perish
at this trying season. A heavy
mulch applied now will save great
deal of time in hoeing, besides
keeping the ground moist.
Marketing-In marketing early
apples and pears, care must be used
in packing, to prevent the fruit from
becoming bruised during transporta-
tion. All fruit should be picked by
hand, after it is fully developed, but
before it softens. Establish good
name for fair dealing, and have each
package of uniform quality through
out. In picking take care not to
break or injure the limbs.
Insects.-Pick up all unripe fruit
which falls to the ground and feed
to the pigs, or allow the pigs to run
in the orchard, where they can de
your the fruit as fast as it falls. Re
move all late caterpillars' nests rs
soon rs they make their appearance
Budding should be done whenever
the bark is loose enough to run
easily, and well ripened buds can be
had.
Borers.-If borers are found,
prObe with a wire.
Seeds and Seedlings. = Young
seedlings require shade from the
scorching sun; this may be given by
using laths, as already mentioned
or evergreen branches. Collect tree
seeds as soon as ripe, and either SOW
now or preserve in sand until spring.
Weeds must be kept out of nur-
sery rows, either by the use of the
horse or by hand. Where old trees
have been neglected, and the ground
near the body of the tree is ocsupied
by weeds and suckers, heavy
breaking up hoe can be used.

A remarkable instance of the dex-
terity and ingenuity in the art of
those professed thieves, the Bheels,
who abound all over India, practic-
ing their craft, is related by an ofii-
Ger who witnessed the circumstance.
A bet was laid by gentleman that
he could procure Bheel who should
steal the sheet from under 4 person
without waking him. The thing
was effected in the following manner:
The Bheel, approaching the person,
who lay on his side, from behind,
carefully folded up the sheet in
small compact plaits, till it reached
his back; then, taking feather, he
tickled the nose of the sleeper, who
Immediately scratched his face and
rolled over on the other side, when,
with slight effort, he com
pletely released the sheet, and bore
it off in triumph. ~ ... f..

A very smart boy on his return
from college attempted to prove
that two were equal to three. Point

he said:
"Is not that one?" and then point

three?"
Whcreupon his father said:
"Wife, you take one and I'll take
the other, and our smart boy can

The following, entitled Watch, Mother,'
OF those little gems which touc
The heart:
Mother. watch the little feet.
Climbing DER the garden wall,
Bounding through the busy street,
Ranging cellar, shed and hall.
Never count the moments lost,
Never mind the time it costs,
Little feet will 20 estray,
Guide them, mother, while you may.
Motheri watch the little hand,
Picking berries by the way,
Making houses IN the sand,
Tossing up the fragrant hay.
Never dare the question ask,
''Why to me this weary taskg'
These same little hands may prove
Messengers of light and love.
MotherI watch the little tongue
Prattling, eloquent and wild,
What is said and what is sung,
By the happy joyous child.
Catch the word while yet unspoken,
stop the vow before 'tis broken,
This same tongue may yet proclaim
Blessings in Savior's name.
Mother! watch the little heart
Beating soft and warm for you,
Wholesome lessons now impart;
Keep, . keep thy heart true.
Extracting every weed,
sowing good and precious seed,
Harvest rich you then may see,
Ripening for eternity.

LAYING DOWN CUcUMBERs.-The
best way to lay down cueumbers is
to sprinkle salt over and let them
form their own brine. A board and
stone should be laid over them, in
order to keep them under the brine.
If in three days there is not enough
brine formed to cover the cueumbers,
there is not salt enough on them
and more should be added. They
should never be allowed to pr5trude
above the brine, ,as white mold will
form and they will soon soften. In
cutting the cucumbers from theyine,
leave 4 small stem on the pickles.
They keep better and appear better
on the table,.

Stealing nutmegs is a small

How to get Land into Grass

''B. d. c." Baltimore Co., NJ. D.,
has five acres of land which he
wants to seed to grass, part for
lawn, ,and the remainder for feed and
hay for horse and COW.
The land should be plowed and
narrowed fine, with plenty of manure
well incorporated; the part reserved
for lawn should be leveled, made
smooth, and sown with a-mixture of
grass seeds-for instance, one bush
ell of red-top, four quarts of blue
grass, with little white clover, say
two or three pounds per acre. For
moving land nothing is better than
six quarts of timothy and peck of
clover. t.7-t ~ 4.7 la-r
If the land is inclined to be wet,
replace three quarts of the tymothy
with q peck of red-top.

CHARLEsTOwN, CLARKE Co., IND,
February 6, 1870.
DIR. I. ii. PURDY-Dear Sir: In your last let
ter to me you wanted me to give you a state
ment of my case, which will endeavor to do
truthfully. L entered the United States army
ON the 18th of April, 1851, and served in various
departments until the 9th of September, 1864,
was wounded and taken prisoner at Chickma-
qua. l then weighed 1876 pounds. Twas sent to
Cahawba prison, and remained there until the
Sth of April, 1866, exposed to every privation
that it was possible to expose men to. In the
fall of '6f caught q violent cold, which settled
on my lungs and terminated in tubcrculous
consumption. Five days after was released |
was weighed by the hospital steward of Elm
street hospital, at Meridian, Miss, and weigh
ed but 20 pounds. lay in this helpless condi-
tiOn IS days, not able to articulate sentence,
even in a whisper, as the vocal organs were
completely paralized. More than twenty diff
ferent physicians paid me a visit and as was
i medical man they did everything in their
power for me, but all agreed that l must die.
At this time they watched me constantly to see
the last spark of life die out; but thanks to God
and DIR. Purdy, 4 classmate of mine, who heard
of my condition, came to see me- He begged OF
DIR. Martin, the surgeon in charge, far the
privilege ofputting me under a course of Physio
medical treatment. At last the surgeon said:
"You can rob him of but few hours, anyhow,
as he cannot live but 81 hours longer In less
than one hour after took the first dose OF med
icine, eliminated, or threw from my lungs
ruption, and in less than two hours, could talk
as well as ever, and now my weight is 146 pounds
and enjoy all the blessings of perfect health.
