VICE PRESIDENT WILsoN.--After the
have puetay generally ia--
formed the public that Niee-President
Wilson'S illness is very serious, and
that he, wiz probably not be able to
serve as the President of the senate, an
authoritative denial of the story comes
from Boston, Mr.. Wilson says that he
is getting well as rapidly aspossible, and
he hopes the newspapers viii let him re-
cover in peace. Mr.. Wilson has al
ways been hard worker, and earned
his present position by ineessa, IT toll IA
the last campaign. II would certainly
be u serious visitation if the physical
sufferings, which have been largely
broaght on. by his campaign labors,
should deprive him of enjoying the posi-
ton for which he labored. And the
newspapers ought toilet him recover in
peace. What with the revival of his
early Knem-N othing attachment during
the campaign, and the elucidation of his
Credit Mobilier connections since the
campaign, Mr.. Wilson has had his
share Of journalistic attention; and, as
he is probably less responsible foE the
political corruption of the day than most
of those who have been in office so long
it is certainly fair to hspe that he. viii

WHITEWASH OR CoLOR-W1SH

"Choose any color but aohite for your out
buildings" remarks our Bayard Taylor and
| agree with him. But what shall the choice
be !? say our lady readers. / answer Let
it be one of the wood colors, which are so
much admired for interiors that wood-hangngs
have been employed instead of paper-hangings.
When desire to mix a color-wash | get a
clean, bright sllingle or pine chip, soak it in
water, and use it as a pattern. | do not
expect my color-wash to be as bright as the
pattern, but | come as near as | can with
ordinary pigments, such as yellow ochre,
Spanish Brown, Venetian red, and burnt
umber The last prefer, and with it alone
stirred into wlitewash obtain very desir-
able tint. As burnt lumber is not always
obtainable at our village store, and yellow
ochre and Spanish brown are, | keep on
hand small package of lampblack, which
with those two substances gives me the desired
color. Lampback, owing to its greasy
nature, will not readily mix with the lime
mash, but floats ON the surface whence,
taken up by the brush, it causes black streaks
when applied. To prevent this I proceed as
follows:
| slack freshly-burned lime with just water
enough to cause it to fall into dry powder.
In this powder | stir my larnpblack until the
mass becomes of uniformly light gray color.
l then add boiling water, constantly stirring
until of the proper consistence, then add
yellow ochre and Spanish brown the former
in much the larger quantity. | need hardly
say that all color washes dry much lighter.
To prevent the wash from rubbing off, |
dissolve teacupful of alum in boiling water,
which add to bucket of wash. To pre-
serve uniformity of tint, the wash should be

MISCELLANY.
WAYES.

Nearly the whole sea is, four times n day,
subject to change in its level by the move
ments of the tides The motion produced by
the winds, and known by the name of waves,
is much less regular. The wind, striking the
surface of the sea in an oblique direction,
pushes some of the water on the surface over
that which is contiguous to it, and this raises
it above the common level, until SO much
water is accumulated that the wind is unable to
maintain it in that position, and it falls down.
Each wave presents a gently ascending SUR
face to the windward and perpendicular
descent lee-ward. The elevation of the waves
varies according to the strength of the wind.
A rather heavy gale. raises them from six to
eight feetabove the common sea level but
in very strong gales they attain an elevation
of thirty feet. This motion of the surface of
the sea is not pereeptibe to great depth. In
the strongest gales it is supposed not to
extend 72 feet below the surface and at a
depth of ninety-two feet the sea is perfectly
still. The form and even the size of the waves
vary according to the depth and extent of the
sea. In shallow water where the lower part
of the waves approaches the bottom, and
meets with resistance, the waves are abrupt
and Irregular and this is also the case in CON
fined seas whilst on the ocean they are wide
and long, and raise and fall with great regu-
larity. When the waves run to low Shore
the slope of the ground breaks their force, and
they terminate in tranquil manner but
when they are impeled against an elevated
rocky COAST being repealed by the rock, they
produce what is called surf. This evident
rising of the sea rocky coast sometimes
attains an elevation of one hundred feet above
the sea level. The surf is always dangerous
to pass, except in boats of peculiar construe-
ton. The waves do not suhside simultaneous
ly with the wind. The sea continues in its
agitated state for many hours The air
being little agitated or none at all, is unable
to depress the unduations of the sea, there
fore the waves during a calm after gale rise
higher, and their most elevated part forms Il
more acute angle than during the gale. Such
a state of sea is called a hollow sea.-London
Lancet.

HOME.

How sweet are the thoughts of ones home
How cheering and soul-strengthcning are the
recollections of the ''dear ones at home." After
we have been cast upon the wilds of this
world--after we have traversed the ups and
downs of life for fifty long ycars--oh how
beautiful and pleasant it is to pass by the
"old farm house," with its ivy and myrtle
vines climbing in fantastic forms around the
quaint, old chimney. What delightful
thoughts of the past, come, one by one, into
our mind, and picture to us the many and
varied scenes we have witnessed and passed
through when in the "old farm house," boys
and girls together. How many days of
sunshine and pleasure we remember having
experienced with the family and friends, and
a thousand other things which time will not
permit us to dwell upon. We cared not then
for the outside world, as all our enjoyments
were conferred upon that odd farm house,
and in it and around it we knew we were
content And, as we pass along, we can see
all the sacred spots held dear in the hearts of
those who used to wander there in the sunny
long ago" We remember where .sCarlo,"
the pei uog, usco 10 Steep anu biihuie'
the favorite COW, used to pasture, and where
grandma would sit and sew under the old
grapevine. But "every household has its
angel" and, in far off corner of the little
garden, shaded by several great, old poplars,
enclosed in neat, rustic fence, lies the body
of that tiny angel, there to remain until tho
Day of Judgment. Such are few of the
interesting thoughts one has as he passes by
the "old farm house." and, to such it is

A STORY FoR THE CHI DREN.

A friend of ours told us story little while
ago which interested IFS so much that VIC
want to tell our little friends. This gentle
man owned a fine horse, which was very fond
of him, and would come from the pasture at
the sound of his voice, and follow him about
like dog Well, at one time, the horse be-
came lame and was obliged to stay in his
stable, and not to be used for many weeks
and it was during this time that Mr.. G.
became interested to see how much the horse
knew and how kind his sympathies were.
An old cat had made her nest upon the
scaffod just above the horses Manager, and
had laid there her little family of five kittens,
to bring them up under good tuition, we
suppose. She and the horse got on nicely for
some days. She jumped down into his
manger and went off for foo6 and then came
back and eaped up to her kittens again.
But one morning she rolled off into the man.
ger, with her foot bleeding, and badly hurt,
so that she could scarcely crawl, but she
managed to leap away on three feet and get
her breakfast but when she came back she
was entirely unable to get up to her kittens,
and what do you think she did? She lay
down at the horses feet, and mewed and
looked up several times, till at last pony,
seeming to understand her wants, reached
down, took the cat in his teeth, and tossed
her up ON the scaffold to her kittens, who we
doubt not, were glad enough to see her.
This Mr.. G. told lis he saw repeated morn
ing after morning. Kit would roll off into
the manger, go and get her breakfast, come
back and be tossed up to her family by the
kind horse, who must have understood cat
language and been willing to listen to it,

CONSOLATION.

Thou who from high Heaven sendest
Consolation to the heart,
And who to the doubly wretched
Doth double grace impart,
|, alas, am sad and weary,
And a prey to wild unrest;
May thy peace, like balm distilling,
Heal the tumult of my breast
"On the lofty mountain SUBMITS,
Like blessing, sleeps Repose;
Thro' the densely- foliaged forest
Not the faintest zephyr blows;
And the bird in leafy bowers
Their love chaunts and ditties cease
Wait little, weary mortal,
And thou also shall have Peace -

THIRTY CENTURIES OLD.--The Oldest relic
of humanity is the skeleton of the earliest
Pharaoh, encased in its original burial robes,
and wonderfully perfect, considering its age,
which was deposited eighteen or twenty
months ago in the British Museum, and is
justly considered the most valuable of its
archaeological treasures. The lid of the coffin
which contained the royal mummy was
inscribed with the name of its occupant
Pharaoh Mykerimus, who succeeded the heir
of the great pyramid about ten centuries before
Christ. Only Think of it the monarch whose
crumbling bones and leathery integuments
are now exciting the wonder of numerous
gazers in London, reigned in Egypt before
Solomon was born, and only about eleven
centuries or SO after Misraim, the grandson of
old father Noah, and the first of the Pharaohs,
had been gathered to bis father.
