Che sAariftta spnrnal,
coMposrrroN or PLANTs.

All plants are composed Of four
teen invariable elements, four of
which are termed organic, and ten
mineral, viz:
Organic Elements Carbon, ny
drogen, oxygen, nitrogen.
Mineral Observation-Disclosures,
potash, soda, lime, magnesia, sui
phnr, chlorine, silica, iron, magpese,
The four organic elements COM
bined are to be found only in living
plants and animals. The ten min
eral elements belong TO the solid
earth. s m
All vegetable substances are COM
posed Of So per cent. of the four or
ganic elements, the other 5 per cent.
being furnished by the mineral. -
The organic elements are supplied
as follows carbon, in the form OF
carbonic acid taken from the air,
and breathed into the plants through
the caves. Hydrogen is supplied
by water. Oxygen by carbonic
acid and water, and nitrogen partly
from the air in form Of gas, and
partly through the roots from sub
stances in the earth containing nj
trogen in the form of ammonia, salt.
petre, nitrate of soda, and orgauic
substances ID the form of flesh and
blood of animals, manure, DC.
Ofthe ten mineral elements that
compose the other 5 per cent. OF
plants, six are found in nearly all
soils in sufficient quantity for the
supply of the plant, viz: Magncsia,
sulphur, chlorine, silica, iron and
magnese. But deficient in the 9th
CIR four, viz: Phosphorus, potash,
lime and soda. These four elements
Joined with any substance contain
ing nitrogen or ammonia, are neces-
sary to make good manure, in or
der to supply the soil with the lack
ing elements. Therefore, bone dust,
soluble bone, phosphate, with
sulphate of ammonia, nitrate of So
da, potash and sulphate lime, COM
bined in proper proportions, will
make the best manure that can be
produced for all lands. Some lands
do not require lime, some soda, but
nearly all lands viii derive great
benefit from bone dust and potash

LIVING ALONE.
From Elmira Gazeite.l

From Emira Gazette.
II may be all very fine to be an
angel, end with the angels stand,
but this being hermit and living
alone, is not quite so fine. At the
present writing we do not know
much about the angel business, but
as to living alone, 1--WE know how il
is ourself." For two long, dreary
weeks we have tried it. For two
long, dreary weeks we have been
the only soul in the house. We
have had no one to love us--none to
ca.hug. All alone we went to bed,
not to US q word was said. We got
up in the morning just as quiet as
we retired at night. There wasn't
much housework TO do, and the barn
chores didn't consume much time
For the first few days we studied
economy, and boarded ourself. We
soon got tired Of eating the outside
slice Of bread at every meal, and
threw the loaf away, and bought
crackers. Remembering the diff
Guilty that Brother Beecher had with
his dishcloth few years ago-an
account Of which we gave in his
miscellany at the time--we resolved
not to wash any dishes, but just put
the dirty ones to soak and use clean
ones. Az long as the dishes hold
out We shall get along with that part
Of housekeeping all right, but they
went last always, as the pile of clean
ones is daily growing smaller, and
the pile of dirty ones larger. The
crisis in this particular is approach
ing, and unless ''the folks" come
home pretty soon, we shall have to
borrow some dishes. For the first
few days we made the bed up nice>
ly every morning. For the next
few days we put it off till night, and
for the last few days we haven't
made it at all. We were charged
particularly to water the house
plants, and take care of the Bird
The plants have caused US a good
deal Of trouble, but we left the door
of the cage open about the first time
we curried that animal off, and he
hasn't troubled us much since. Of
course wen "catch il" when the
folks come home, but that is a good
deal easier than it is to catch the
bird. On the whole we are free to
say that we don't like housekeeping,
and if ever we should be "born
againn--and according 10 very good
authority we have all got TO UNDER
go that operation,--we earnestly
hope we shan't be born q woman
and especially housekeeping
one. We would rather be an angel.

A Word Of Warning.

READER, IN CHANGING OVER THE
different Newspapers, Magazine Almanacs
and even on the stumps, fene' and on the
house-topa, your attention s every where d.
rected to the scores Of self-styled human bene-
factors, and nowhere is this more apparent and
disgusting than in the local notices Of certain
patent medicine vendors in condemning some Of
the most valuable preparations, which they
know to be superior to their own, and hope by
this continued gas-conading to decoy the
simple minded into belief that they swallow
ed the whale instead Of J onah; but it is alto
gether too thin for this country and especially
the climate because the people here already
know whats what" and when weakness or
general debility and indigestion requires the
use Of a wholesome Tonic and Restorative they
resort promptly to McCUTCHEON'S "CHER
OKEE INDIAN BITTERSp and are never
disappointed in their reasonable expectations.
As yet nothing equal to it is offered for their &C.
ceptance either in this or any other market

Buried Treasure.

pirate, buried certain treasure in the i'm
mediate vicinity of Newport, r. l., and
the point on the west shore of Codding-
toms Cove was the spot usually selected
as the locality Of this concealed store of
wealth. Search has frequently been made
near the shore for some evidence of its
locality, and 4 couple OF gentlemen dis
covered an inscription upon a stone near
the Cove, which was supposed to afford a
key TO the secret The stone bearing the
inscription j. Z large one, weighing many
tons and the letters are partially obliter-

which if is the supposed key, sought out
the spot and a gentleman Of the party

lady OF the party discovered imbedded in

gold, a coin of the value perhaps, of ten
dollars, the date of which she has not vet
been able to ascertain with certainty A

The more we think of the state after

imaginations Of childhood, when we saw
the other world wildly pictured, a brigh
and perfect copy of the world in whicl
we now live, with sunshine and flowers
and all that constituted our earthly en-
