The managers ofthc Home for Des-
titute Children in Burlington Vermont
arc about to present the Claims Of that
worthy charity to its friends throughout
the State for the purpose of procuring
means TO enlarge the institution by erect
ing an addition to the present building.
The number Of children in the "Iiome'
during the past year has averaged fifty,
and the building is entirely too small to
accommodate such a family, beside it was
erected more than twenty years ago for
an entirely different purpose and contains
none of the modern labor saving conven-
fences so necessary in such an institution.
The lowest estimates for the needed en-
largcmeat. and repairs on old building is
$40, 600 90 and the managers must look
10 those whom God has prcSpc.ed' for
amount.
Iu this connection we wish to correct an
erroneous impression which seems to pre-
vail to some extent in relation to the Ii
%uancial condition Of the Home 1t is
sometimes said that the Home" is rich
enough without begging any more. This
is a mistake.
The Corporation W the present build,
inc and ten acres of land which cost
100000 in 1866. 1t has a"Pcrmanent
Fund of a little over $40, 100000 but the
entire income of this Fund" is not suf
Geient to delray the current expenses and
the deficiency is made up every year by
voluntary contributions.
A legacy of s250O.0o from the estate
Of the.late Carlos Baxter, Esq, is APP
propriated to the buiIding fund, and th'
Hon. T. W. Park CT Bennington has sub
scrlbed $2o50,O0 more and u { gentleman i:
Burlington $500 90 with which the ladies
have to begin. Without claiming to be
exact, the above is a substantially correc
statement of the finances of the Cor
p~oration and we trust it will serve to disa
busc the public Of the impression that tn
institution is not in need Of more mon
ey. On the contrary its leeds are impcr
alive and its necessities make. us urgen
that the present SEASON should not pas
without some relief in the way of enlarg
ed accommodations.
We know it is an imfortunte time
solicit funds for charitable purpose whe
the business of the community is 80 de
pressed but there is money enough TO
railroads and other enterprises aud shout
not our orphan and destitute children b
provided for with equal liberality? w
cannot think that the intelligent and be
n volest men ia Vermont will turn a dea
ear to so vital a question.

A Japanese Home.

A recent traveller thus describes the in
terror of japanese house: A shOpkeep-
er who has curious things for sale invites
us to enter his shop. The room on the
street is his shop. The whole front part
is open, door and window all one, without
sash or panes of glass wide open by day,
closed with wooden shutters st night. We
step in and look at his wOrk-boXes of fancy
wood, his tea-trays and lacquered ware,
glove-boXes, fans, and great variety of
nick-nacks, and then pass from the shop
into the house. The parlOr is a platform
raised about two feet from the ground, COW
cred with mating. There are a few low
stools, pictures by Japanese artists on the
walls; pots and pans in one corner; tea
cups. saucers, bowls, and plates of nice
pOrcelain-ware on a shelf, a roll of mats
in another corner, which will be spread
upon the floor at night for bedding. We
are in the presence of the shOpkeeper's
wife and daughter-the daughter young
lady perhaps 20 years old. B0h of the la
dies are dressed in extreme lowness of
faShiOn-nO waist, no underclOthing-
nothing but skirt. The shOpkeeper's S
wife buStles about, sets the steolS aside,
disappears behind a screen. and reappears
with a mahogany stuffed chair, with many
al
the seat, then herself crOuches upon the
floor at our feet, shows us photographs of
Nagasaki and other works of art We have
an opportunity to study her features She
is small of stature, has long black hair
nicely combed, smooth. braided, done up
neatly, and tastefully adorned with arti-
fetal flowers. She has pug nose, high
and prominent check bones, a broad fore
head, and small black eyes. a tawny conf
plexiOn, with tinge of peach bloom on
her cheeks, a hOmely mouth and red lip.
Not many artists would give such features
to their idea of pefect beauty, but for all
that there is apleasing expression of ceun-
tenance when animated, or when she
smiles, but when the smile becomes a
laugh, and the lips part, we see two rows
of snowy teeth, black as jet. We think of
a coal-hOd, or of looking into a knOt-hOle
opened into dark room! More than this,
the lady has pulled out every hair of her
eyebrows. Thereby hangs a story. The
legend is that, years ago. beautiful Prin-
cess Of Japan, IN order to show her devO-
ton to her husband, blackened her teeth
and pulled out her eyebrows-making her
self hideOus in the sight of gallants-and
so all loving wives follow her example.
There is but little to see in japanese
house. The partition, between rooms are
movable paper screens, and, in most houses
of the lower and middling classes there is
but one room, and the entire furniture
might he packed on hand-car.

The Coal Question.

The great coal question is certain to be-
come again unpleasantly prominent before
winter sets in, and therefore any infOrma-
ton bearing on the worlds supplies is to
be welcomed. The chief fact standing out
prominently, amid the tedious and con-
stantly recurring squabbles between capi-
tai and labor in our English coal districts. is
that the high price of fuel for the last three
years has more and more thrown other
nations on their own resources, and rem
dered them comparatively independent of
our fields. India, for instance, is gradu-
atty raising enough coal from the Ner-
bUdda and other regions to supply its rail-
way companies and lines of steamers, a
fact lately brought into prominence by
published abstract of the reports of the
leading railways. In the Indian Ocean
and China attempts are also made with
some success to utilize the vast deposits
existing there. Of Europe we need not
speak, unless to point out that coal mines
in operation are not now confined TO
France, Belgium and Germany; Russia,
too, is developing them at rate which
promises soon 10 make her independent of
English help. But America presents the
most instructive example Of all. A New
York journal states that recent reports
made to the United States Land Office give
the estimated coal area at $4,000 square
miles, of which exactly One-half are be-
yond the Mississippi. Of the latter little
is worked, owing to the cost of developing
the deposits, but as population increases
and machinery comes into use, the beds
will doubtless be opened out for local use.
The bearing which such a fact has upon
our economical arrangements is intimate.
Thanks for the high prices current here
for the last two years, We are fast losing
America as a market for our iron, and the
native manufacturers are cutting us out,
not only in the States, but in Canada even.
Now, what is essential to the prosperity OF
the American irOnmasters is abundant fueI;
give them that, and they can set English
competition at defiance, unless our prices
are very much lowered. We, however,
have maintained high prices just long
enough to give the requisite stimulus, and
when we reduce them-Of which there is
vet little sign-it may be too late to re-
cover the lost ground. The situation may
be commended TO the notice OF the disput-
ants in South Wales, Durham, Lanark-
shire and elsewhere If they lose much
more time they will have made up their
minds just when the opportunity is gone,
and there is nothing left 70 fight about:
Without foreign markets, Merfhyf and
Gartsherrle have scarcely any rasi9B esfrsi

Business in Farming.

Eternal vigilance is the price of success
in any vocation, and this is especially true
with regard to farming. In no vocation
is there required more skill and business
tact than in carrying on a farm success
fully. 1t is the prevailing opinion that
when man has failed in everything else
he can succeed as a farmer; that it re-
quires no study to conduct the operations
of the farm, and that an inexperienced
man can succeed as well as an experienced
one. Such an opinion is altogether erro-
neOuS. To be a successful farmer man
must have knowledge of Natures laws
as applied to vegetation, of stock breed
ing and the care of stock, OF fertilizers, of
insects, of the general character of the
different soils, and of the relation of the
atmosphere to the soils and vegetation.
Besides this, he must be skilled in busi-
ness sufficiently to market to the best adj
vantage and at the right time, his crops /:
he must understand farm machinery that
he may buy the best; he must know
when to hire help, and how to manage
his hired men. In a word, it requires
great capacity. Men may be brought up
on farm and still know but little of fwhat
is required to be a successful farmer.
Sometimes we see business men from the
cities that have no practical knowledge of
agriculture, buy farms and manage them
profitably. These men know that it re-
quires exact business principles to gain
success, and that these must be adopted in
farming to make it a success. One great
drawback that some farmers meet is that
they do not understand the purchase of
stock and tools. Some suppose that the
lowest priced articles are the cheapest,
NJ ,orlxr Inv
improvement is brought out many will not
adOptit Because their fathers knew nothing
of it and did not therefore hand it down
to posterity. So also. some suppose that
to starve their live stock and the soil is
economy whereas it is the worst possible
extravaganza. 1t is lamentable fact that
great number Of our farmers have the
most narrow views, that they will not
learn from the experience of Others more
intelligent and less superstitiOus than they.
Most failures in this vocation arise from a
lack of business habits and capacity. The
men that do succeed have skill and tact,
and adopt improvements in modes and
machinery, and new combinations. ROu-
tine is followed so far as it is profitable and
no further, irrespective of the ways of fore
fathers. Transportation ROnOpOlies may
depress agriculture, but poor farming de-
presses it more. 1t is the easiest thing in
the world to lay our failures on others,
when in reality we are to blame for them.
The present depression in farming will
work good results. 1t will teach farmers
that they cannot single-handed cope with
mOnopOlies. and hence lead to combination.
This will break the old routine in agricul-
ture, and farmers will learn that to succeed
they must study and apply skill in the
various transactions which they perform.
This depression has come none too soon
times. The time will soon come when a
farmer of narrow, contemplate views will
