shown that the difference of
solid matter in the two was rela.

matter was composed of starch, ery,t.
sugar, and woody fibre. There was an
almost entire absence of sugar and gum

ments upon corn fcddet have afforded
us important Information upon other
points. We find that the stalks cut be-
fore they reach a certain stage of
growth are deficient in nutrient matter.
and therefore it il waste to feed them
too early.
The corn plant, like all other we're,
table structures, has but one object or
aim in its growth, and that is to pro-
duoe seed. It is engaged during it's
whole life in storing up lafgd quantities
of starch, %hleh Ii to be used when
pressing occasion arrives, or the seed
vessels mature, to form by some subtle
mysterious changes the rich nutrient
principles which are found in seeds.

Farmers may learn from these facts
! that corn designed to be cut for fodder
should be planted at two or three pe-
RODS during the season; some f,e11s
quite early, others somewhat later,
and still others as late as it is safe. In

Pines Introduced in Cabinet Organs.

Pipes Introduced in Cabinet Organs.
Mr.. Carl Fogelberg, Swedish Organ
builder, has succeeded in combining
pipes with reeds; rendering it possible
to use both in Cabinet Organs, and has
secured patents for his invention in the
United States. The Importance of doing
this has long been prss:ciated, but here
tofore it hos been found i'm fractlcable,
the difficulty arising from the ta.ct that
pipes vary IN pitch with every change o.
tempetstars; while reeds do not, so that
a change of ten or fifteen degrees made
it impossible to use theh together. In
struments which have been advertised as
Pips Cabfnet Organs have contained NO
real speaking pipes; but only limitations
of some sort. Mr.. Fogelbste uses gen
uine wood pipes of the best quality.
The substance of his invention is an
arrangement by which the pipes, when
out of tune from = change of tempera-
ture, can be simultaneously end in
stantly restored to the same pitch with
the reeds, by the turning of single
! screw.
The Mason & Hamlin Organ Co. have
been thoroughly testing Mr.: Fogel-
berg's inventions, and it is understood,
are satisfied of their value, and will soon
offer them to the public. If pipes
are successfully combined with reeds,
it will be the most impofts.t improve
ment ever made in Cabinet Organs. Conn.,

A Touching Incident.
From the New York Times.

During the past year little boy
about five years old entered the Phelps
industrial school, No. 235 East Fifty
fifth street. He was beautiful looking
child, with large grey eyes, brown hair,
rosy cheeks, and very full regular fea-
lures. He attracted unusual attention.
Visitors as we'll as teachers admired him.
and even the very toughest of his play
mates were kind to him. The teacher
taught him a piece to say, which caused
great laughter on account of the bright,
active and prompt manner he had in
delivering it. A gentleman visited the
school, whom the lad was called upon to
recite his piece. After he had finished,
the gentleman placed his hand upon
his shoulder, and said, "Well done,
my boy. Here is five cents for you. ="
The teacher noticed an unusual ex-
preston of joy on the child's face, but
duty calling her attention in var
ious directions, it soon passed
from her mind for a while.
The boy was regular in his at
tendance at school, but soon there came
a change in the child; day by day he
grew paler and paler, and his step less
elastic and buoyant. When he was
asked if he was sick, his answer was
always the same: "No, not sick, but
tired" He was noticed daily to take
his bread home; Che lived with his
grandmother); no questions were asked
why he did SO. Many very pale and
sickly children are in those schools.
Thus day after day and week after
week passed. until one day he came in
looking so thin and pale that the
teacher asked him to go home
and rest, that he might feel better to-
morrow. Tears came in his eyes and he
said: II want to stay in school," The
teacher, not knowing that no was starv
ing for his bread, allowed him to remain.
At noon, his grandmother came to him,
saying he had not eaten q mOrsel of
feod that day, (not stating that she had
none in the house.) He took his bread
and left. He was soon attacked with
hemorrhage OF the lungs, and in his
weakened state could not throw it off,
He grew worse that night, and in
half-dreaming state would call out,
"Grandma! oh, grandma what will
you do for bread when die z" During
his illness the teachers called, and
learned from his grandmother that
daily had the child divided his bread
with her, and many day this was all
they had to eat. While the tears were
flowing frofusely she said: 81 shall
never forget the day that the gentle
man gave him five cents for reciting
his piece. He came in SO delighted
with his usual allowance of bread),
and said: "Look here, grandma;
here is so much bread, and here is five
cents that gentleman gave me for
speaking my piece. Now we have all
the bread we want to-day" He then
went out and bought some rolls with
his money. When he was near his end,
speaking aloud, he claspca his hands
ard whispered the Lords prayer.
though to him the "daily bread" had
not come, and departed whittier no
pain or hunger shall come. He was
buried by the ladies of the school.

An Important Project.

The steam ferry which it is proposed
to establish across the Straits of Dover,
between the ports of Dover aad Calais.
has received the approval of board
OF commissioners appointed by the
French Assembly to examine into the
matter. The plan includes the con-
struction of three large steamers, with
disconnected padale-wheels, each wheel
being driven by an engine of seven
hundred nominal horsepower, but
capable of working up to thirty five
hundred horse power. The dimenions
of the vessels are to be as follows:
four hundred and fifty feet long, fifty
feet broad at the water line, thirty-two
feet deep and thirteen feet three inches
draught of water, with
displacement of four thousand tons.
The paddle-wheels are to be fifty feet in
diameter, with an immersion of ten
feet. Tho cost of the three vessels is
estimated at two million dollars. On
the lower deck of each oil these steam
ers double line of rails is to be laid,
with q capacity of accommodating thir-
ty railway carriages. The rate of speed,
it is estimated, will be eighteen knots
an hour, and it is hoped that the pas
sage across the straits can be made in
seventy minutes in fine, and ninety
minutes in foul weather. By running
two steamers, and keeping one in re:
serve, six passages, it is believed, can
be made daily, and thus 1850
passengers and 2,64O tons of goods can
be carried across every day, or 978, 200
passengers and 963, 600 tons of goods
during each year. The projectors of
this enterprise ask the French govern
ment for authority to construct large
dock and warehouse at Calais. The
French government is also asked to
build bridge to connect this dock
with the shore and the north of France
railway, and to conclude contract for
the transportation of the mails for
twenty years, at an annual subsidy of
800, 900. The French government is
further requested to use its good offices
to induce the English government to
construct suitable dock and ware
house at Dover.
