one side, and the stalks on the other, by
which means equality of roasting is in
sured, the leaves being roasted together,
and the stalks together. After tying up
the bamboo, the truss of leaves and stalks
is held over smokeless fire, and kept
moving about, SO as to roast without sing
ing it. The stalks are considered quite
as valuable as the leaves, and when the
operation is completed, leaves and stalks
are rubbed between the hands into
coarse powder, and then they are ready
for use. Some samples of coffee leaf tea
were shown at the first Great Exhibition,
and were favorably reported upon by tea
tasters and analytical chemists, the latter
pronouncing it to contain all the charac-
teristics of the coffee bean, while richer
in theme. The infusion is of deep
brown color, and extremely fragrant, its
odor-like its taste-resembling that of
mixture of tea and coffee. DIR. STEM
house says: 'The infusion of the coffee
leaf has a much greater resemblance to
that Of tea than to a decoction of the
coffee bean, SO that, should the coffee-leaf
ever come into general use in European
countries, it will be rather as substitute
for tea than coffee If the leaves were
only dried at a somewhat lower and better
regulated temperature, | have little doubt
that they would yield an agreeable bev-
erage."-ChGna5ers' Journal.

A Funeral Discourse.

A FRIEND of mine recently attended the
funeral Of a middle-aged lady who was
greatly beloved by the community in
which she died. Her family was large
and highly respectable, but having moved
a long time previous from a neighboring
State, not much was known of their orr
gin. The obsequies were attended by a
large and sympathizing company The
preacher opened his discourse by speak
ing of the good character of the deceased
and the sad occasion which called the
company together. "But, my friends"
said he, unknown to you, have greater
cause for seriousness at this solemn time
than any one before me. Even these sur
vlving relations, who are more interested
in what l am going to communicate, have
Orgotten the time when, long ago and far
OFT, they once heard my voice. 1t is
now almost twenty years since the father
OF the deceased, and of her brothers and
sisters, now seated around with others
present, suddenly expired before my eyes.
Yes; L had the melancholy satisfaction,
among thousands of others, of seeing him
hung. read the hymn which was sung
ere he swung, and | hope-though he
seemed not to relish my informing him
that he would soon go from works to re-
wards nor to appreciate my kind advice
general y-that, as most persons who die
from the scatfold usually do, he went to
glory right Off" With this cheerful and
highly complimentary Renaissance, the
speaker took his text from the chapter in
the book of Esther, wherein is recorded
the execution of Hannah From this he
drew, neck and heels, the farfetched in
ference that it was equally as hard to tell
how as when we should decor In

Systematic Farming.

The true theory of agriculture is to re-
gard it in the light of manufacturing in
dustry. The farmer is creator of values.
Whatever he produces, whether it be a
bushel of corn, a pound of pork, a barrel
of apples, an acre of roots, or a firkin of
butter; in all these cases he converts raw
materials into useful commodities through
the intervention of labor and by the use
of capital. He puts his products into the
market in much the same way as other
manufacturers. His success, like theirs,
depends not alone on capital, or skill, or
labor, or machinery, Or science, or expert
ence; on none Of these separately and ex-
clusively, but on all of them combined,
and on the judgment with which they are
blended in due proportion, and on the
clear GIFTED sagacity which is everywhere
applied to his operations.
There is no reason, then, why the bust
ness of the farmer, is conducted under
right conditions, should not yield as fair
a margin Of profit as other manufacturing
industries. In his case, as in theirs,
whatever reduces the cost Of production
adds so much to the net results, and helps
to make him prosperous man.
The problem for the agriculturist is, To
get the highest agreeable product mot of
quantlly merely, out OF Value,) from the
smallest cash investment, and the practi-
cal mode of solving this problem makes
the whole difference between the thriftless
and the thrifty farmer
Just here there arises very important
inquiry: Does the highest yield per acre
necessarily give the lowest net cost of the
article raised, or is there any relation be-
tween these two factors9 The obvious an
swer is, that though the largest yield does
not always give the least cost, yet the
chances are greatly in its favor if reason
able care and economy are used. There
is, of course, limit of outlay on every
crop, beyond which it will not be profita-
BILE; but inside of this limit, it is safe to
say that, as a general rule, the more bush
els or tons you get from an acre, the less
each bushel or ton will cost
The reason Of this is so perfectly plain,
it seems incredible that our farmers do
not give more attention to the principle,
and take advantage of it to increase their
profits. The usual explanation with most
of them is, that capital being limited,
they cannot put more than a certain
amount of expense on each acre, even
though every additional dollar should
bring back hundred -fold-Cor. Rural

was great fuss and hustle, and then
some one came and said that there was

CObleigh's Mistake.

WE are particular people. When we
place anything down we want to find it
just there when we look for it. We are
very particular about this. And when we
do not place anything just there, we ex-
pect to find it there just the same. And
more so. Mr.. Cobleigh took bath Sun
day morning. On coming from the wa
ter refreshed and strengthened, he put on
his pants, and drew the suspenders over
his bare shoulders, and, taking his soiled
clothing in his arms, adjourned to the
bedroom. Here he deliberately lOosened
those articles while he tucked in the gar
ments. Then he looked for his suspend
ers. He had carefully placed them on a
chair, you know-that chair right at the
foot of the bed, and he looked there for
them as it was perfectly reasonable he
should. They were not there however.
Mr.. Cobleigh was surprised. He stared
very hard at the chair, and tried manfully
to keep down the rising temper. Then
he looked in every corner of the room,
and got down on his knees, and peered
under the bed, and even looked up at the
ceiling, and out of the window. He eX-
amined these localities not because he ex-
pected to find the article there, but Mr..
CObleigh wished to show the world that
there was no intention on his part to be
unfair in this matter. He had left those
suspenders on that chair, and as they
were not gifted with legs, some one had re-
moved them. Nj. Cobleigh was so conf
dent of this that lie deemed it prudent to
strike the stand with his fist, anG tell
what ought to be done to the party who
took the suspenders. This he did and
then called his wife. She came up at
Mr. Tnh1oirh I,rio OIL role odd
the loss, because he hadn't time to talk
much, and then proceeded to talk about
nothing else. Mrs. Cobleigh carefully
searched the chair, while Mr.. Cobleigh
stood by and grated his teeth. Then she
carefully searched the room, which so ex-
asperated him, as he had already made
the search, and had left the suspenders on
the chair, that he tartly inquired if she
supposed he had hidden the articles.
This led her to explain that she believed
he had left them somewhere else. DO
you think I'd lie about pair of suspend
ers?" gasped he, as the awful suspicion
flashed upon him. Mrs Cobleigh was
not prepared to back up this proposition
perhaps she did not consider 1t at all, but
she was confident they had been mislaid,
and said so, while Mr.. Cobleigh, holding
up his garments, danced around in very
furious manner. Finally a compromise
was made with two strips of wooden
cloth, with holes at the ends, and the Cob
leighs went to church in no very happy
state of mind. At night when Mr.. Cob
leigh retired, and drew off his upper
wardrobe for that purpose, vehement
exclamation attracted the attention of
Mrs Cobleigh, who, looking around, be
held a very sheepish looking man trying
to disengage pair of suspenders from
under tight fitting undershirt. "Well, !
DECLARE" commenced that lady, i
"Will you just shut up, and 60 to bed 81
savagely demanded Mr.. Cobleigh. She

COffee-leaf Tea.

THE people of the E. ~tern Archipelago
have no belief in water. They say it will
not quench a mans thirst, nor give renew
ed vigor to tired sinews. Tea is not
bitter enough for their palate, and for
cotfee-the benighted European is vel
come to every berry. The only nonin
toxicating drink the Samaritan does be-
lieve in is coffee-leaf tea, and his faith is
founded on experience. Give him little
boiled rice and plenty Of coffee-leaf tea,
and he can work for weeks together in
the rice-fields up to his knees in mud,
scorched by burning sun, or drenched
with tropical downpours. Heat, cold,
and wet are alike to him, for they work
him no harm, and he ascribes his i'm
munity entirely to the virtues of his
favorite beverage. When grown for its
berries, the coffee plant can only be cult
waited successfully in particular soils and
particular situations; but when it is only
required to yield good crop Of leaves, it
can be profitably grown wherever the soil
is tolerably fertile. Mr.. Motley, travelling
up the Chanaku River, saw coffee trees
growing everywhere near the houses, and
in every case noticed that the berries lay
decaying on the ground as though not
worth consideration. He was impelled

exceedingly like green tea, and found it
so pleasant to drink, and so refreshing
after a hard day in the sun, that he no
longer wondered at the excessive fond
ness the Sumatrans display for what is
truly their national beverage. Mr.. Ward
who passed twenty years in Padang, is
loud in its praises. He drank it
morning and evening, and found it IN
valuable, giving immediate relief to hun
ger and fatigue, and clearing the BRAIN of
its cobwebs The Sumatrans hold that
the best liquor is obtained from leaves
shed by the plants; but their usual meth
Cd of proceeding is to take off the ends
of the branches and suckers, and break
them up into twelve or fifteen inch lengths.
These are fixed side by side in split
bamboo, SO that the leaves all appear on

River WhirlpoOIs.

Among the many phenomena of the Colorado river are "swirls," so called. They occur everywhere, but only at high stages of water. A bubble rises from the bottom and breaks with Q slight sound on the surface. The water at the point begins 8 rotary motion, so small that an inverted teacup might cover it. Larger and larger grows the circle, till a surface of forty feet in diameter is in motion, spinning round funnel-shaped hole in the centre two or three feet across at the top, and coming to point in the depths below. Often Q large tree floating down the stream is caught and its foremost end thrust up in the air twenty or thirty feet, while the other passes underneath, the exposed end to be slowly drawn down again and to disappear Three soldiers, deserters from Camp Mohave, passing in skiff through the ravine immediately below the fork, suffered their craft to run into a swirl. One of the crew at the first intimation of dan ger, threw himself overheard beyond the charmed circle, and as he swan away, he turned his head and saw the boat spin round and round, until one end being drawn into the vortex and the other upheaved in the air, it slowly sank as it revolved into the turbid bosom of the river, it's human freight to be seen no more, for the Colorado river does not give up the dead-no corpses lodge on it's shores.
