How 10 MAKE BOYS GOOD FAR,
MERs.-lnduce them to take an inter-
est in the farm, in the implements. in
the stock; tell them all your plans,
your successes and failure; give them
history Of your own life, and what
you did, and how you lived when a
boy; but do not harp too much on the
degenerate character of young men of
the present age; praise them when Won
can, and encourage them to do still
better. Let them dress up in the
evening, instead of sitting down in
their dirty clothes in a dirty room.
Provide plenty Of light. Thanks to
kerosene, our country homes can be as
brilliantly lighted as the gas,lit houses
in the city. Encourage the neighbors
to drop in evenings. Talk agrcul-
ture rather than politics; speak Of the
Importance Of large crops, of good
stock, Of liberal feeding, and Of the
advantage Of making animals comfor-
table, rather than of the lard times,
low prices, and high wages. Above
all, encourage the boys to read good
agricultural books. Papers are well
enough, but an intelligent boy wants
something more. Get him some good
agricultural book to study. Read it
with him, and give him the benefit of
your experience and criticism. When
he has mastered this, buy him another.
In our own case, we owe our love for
farming principally 10 the fact that our
father told US of everything that was
doing on the farm; answering all the
questions, and encouraging, rather
than refusing, our childIike desire Of
helping him to plow, to chop, to let
of water, and fire the brush~nesp.-

Light IN DARKNESS. The Paris
Figaro gives the following method of
obtaining light instantaneously, with.
out the danger Of setting things on fire:
Take an oblong vial OF the whitest and
clearest glass, put in it a piece of
phosphorus about the size of pea
upon which pour some olive oil, heated
to the boiling point, filling the vial
about one~third full, and then seal the
vial hermet;cally. To use it, remove
the cork and allow the air to enter the
vial, and then recork it. The whole
empty space in the bottle will become
luminous, and the light obtained will
be equal to that of lamp. As soon
as the light grows weak its power can
he increased by opening the vial and
allowing fresh supply of air to enter.
In winter it is sometimes necessary to
heat the vial between the hands to in
crease the fluidity of the oil. Thus
prepared, the vial may be used for six
months. This contrivance is now
used by watchmen of Paris in all
magazines where explosive or inham-
mable materials are usel

small republic in Italy, between the

The territory of the State is only forty
miles in circumference, and its popsla-

founded more than 1 400 years ago,
on moral principles, industry, and
equality, and has preserved its liberty
and independence amid all the wars
and dlscords which have ragged around
IT, Bonaparte respected it, and sent
an embassy to express his sentiments
OF friendship and fraternity. 1t is
governed by a captain regent, chosen
every six months by the representa-
tlves Of the people, (sixty in number,)
