MULTIPLYING BY FIvE.-Figures are
extraordinary instrumentalities in the
service of mathematicians. With them
they measure the dimensions of distant
worlds moving swiftly on their orbits,
and eve calculate the weight and den
sity of a planet with q slate and pencil.
So accurate are those calculations that
we're it possible to place Jupiter in a
pair OF scales, they would verify their
statements.
Amy number Of figures multiplied by
five will give the same result if divided
by two. But remember to add q cipher
to the answer when there is no remain
der; and when there is, whatever it
may be, annex five to the answer.
Multiply 464 by five, and the answer
will be 1880. Divide it by two, and
there will be 232. There being no re-
mainder, now add q cipher. And next
357, and multiply by five. The answer
will be 1856. By dividing the first sum
by two, there is 178 and a remainder.
Place a five at the end of the line, and
the result will be again 1875.
The science Of figures is al unex-
plered domain. Mr.. Babbage's ~calculat-
ing machine indicated regions which
the inventor could not comprehend
Laplace, Sly Isaac Newton and Ieverier
could not reach what they believed
attainabie by figures in coming ages of
scientific research.

A LESSON FOR THE FARMERs.-There
is a word of truth and sensible advice
in the following from the Beacon, pub
lished at Macon, one of the richest cot
ton sections of Mississippi:
"The pressure in the money market
is indicated in q significant manner by
the miscellaneous lots of produce which
our planters are bringing to market to
take the place of their short receipts
from their cCttOn crop. Every avail
able article of consumption, articles
heretofore unthought of and u1icared
for, are offered for sale daily ON our
street. Beef, poultry, COOLERS, pump
kins, ~venison, everything laying loose
or tied up about a plantation, are free
" offered, and the prospect is that IL
o attention is not paid to the culti-
walton Of these miscellaneous products
hereafter, the supply viii be exhausted
this season. Our farmers have d lessen
before them. Our planters are now
~decimating their stock and depriving
themselves of many things to raise q
little money to meet the exigeneies of

One of the most curious of the numer-
GUS sects which have sprung into exist
ence in Russia during the last few years
was that, composed exclusively of fe-
teacher. Father seraphinus. the sera-
phinoVski, which originated in the town
of Parchov. Their creed was implicit
belief in their reverend leader; their
practice consisted in cutting off the hair.
Women were converted in crowds, and
Don there would have been little OF no
long hair left in Parchov, when the pO-
lice e moved to inquire into the sub
ject. They discovered that Father Sc
ra~phinushad a brother who dealt in Golf
fures, and that monk and barber united
to drive a very pretty trade in the tress-
es sacrificed by the devotees. The Sc
raphic doctor now lies in prison, with
leisure to mediate on the disadvantages
of combining religion and business.
