Among the most singular sources of in
.dustrial production in the world, says an
English Journal, are the leech ponds of Hol-
land Most of these are owned by a regularly
organized company. The marshes of the
land, 'wlicl, is moored to its Shore are
admirably adapted to the unlimited cultiva-
ton of the leech, and the trade in them is
larger than is imagined. A good lcech, of
powerful suction, is not a thing to be con-
temned. Brockklcin is the town most inter-
ested in this strange trade, and owns stock IN
the company mentioned above, to the amount
of one million tlorins, and an immense reser-
voir has been constructed in which to breed
millions of voracious leeches, fine brown black
fellows, warranted to hold on like aquatic
bulldogs. The leech deposits its eggs from
May to September in the nude or shallow
waters, from whence they are taken and trans
fcrred to artificial ponds, constructed expressly
to hatch them. What will make the expert
ment profitable one is the fact that the de-
mand for leeches has of late years exceeded
the supply. The marshes. and streams of
Central and Southern Europe are nearly ex-
hausted. The Dutch leech is superior to the
Swedish, which is now most generally used

Did any ofsour readers says the Catskill
Recorder ever think of the travel 1t takes to
field, 40xS0 rods To break this up would
make 166 miles. Narrowing it, about 40
miles. Furrowing out, 90 miles. Planting,
as miles, if with planter. and if planted and
then covered, 90 miles. And for each plow-
ing Of two burrows in a 90 miles, or five plow-
ings, $50 miles. Thus you will see it takes
about 800 to 900 miles of travel to raise TWEEN
ty acres of corn, not counting going to or re-
turning from the field. Besides, there is re-
planting, thinning, &c.

MISCELLANY.

"PEARL HUNTING NEAR CEYLoN.--The
Ceylon s'pearl hunting +" takes place in March,
when the sea is calmest, without being cold,
and the currents are least strong. About one
hundred and fifty boats assemble, each con-
tanning five diving stones, and two divers to
each stone. The squadron is divided into the
Red and Blnc, each embracing about seventy
boats, and it starts at midnight from the
shore, so as to reach the pearl banks by sun
rise. Tile pearl captain is called Adigar, and
he is allowed the use of one boat as payment.
There is much to do beforehand along shore
in blessing tie boats, and ntter1ng spells
against sharks and drowning and the crews
often embark priest with them. The divers
take it in turn to descend. Many of them
compress their nostrils with pincers OF Dam-
boo, and stuff their ears with cotton or bee5-
wax, to keep off the pressure OF the water,
which, at seven or eight fathoms, is considera-
BILE. They fasten net round the waist, and,
putting stone between their feet, they slide
overheard. Arrived at the bottom, they sweep
into their net and oysters within their reach,
give the rope jerk, and are hauled up again,
rasping, faint, and livid. Few can keep be-
low longer than hundred seconds, and the
men return in very exhausted condition,
though practice works wonders IN this re-
spect. They never eat previously to diving,
and generally sleep little after it before par
taking of any food or drink. To go down
twelve or fourteen times is very hard days
work; and, If the weather is at all unfavora-
Bile, with cold wind or rough water, three or
four dives are all that will be ventured. The
take is divided into four heaps, of which one
belongs to the squadron, the other three to
government. These last are sorted out into
piles of thousand oysters, and each pile is
sold at public auction.-Sat. Ece. Post.

A Story of Lord Derby.

The Dallas CTexas) Herald tells a
story Of the present Lord Derby, 10Y
second officer il the English Cabinet.
In 1S47, two beardless young men made
their appearance in Marshall, Texas.
The sought and obtained an introduce
ton to Governor Henderson, who had
formerly been Minister to France from
the Texas Republic. Their object in
seeking the Governor was to obtain q
loan of SIC, 900 to carry them to New
York. They had spent $500, 600 since
leaving that city, and announced them
selves as dead broke" "Who are
you?" said the Governor, "and what
evidence al you bring to prove that
you are what you profess to be-" q
am the eldest o of the Earl of Derby"
said the spokesman, "and by courtesy
in English society am called Lord STAN
ley; my young friend with me is, in
like manner, Lord Manners" "How
am l to know that my confidence will
not be betrayed" said the cautious
Governor. "Simply, Governor" re-
piled the representative of him who
fought a: Floddeniield, "that 1 am a
Stanley. A Stanley cannot and dare
not be dishonorable." There was
something noble in the speech, and the
government that OWNS such a youth can
scarcely fear corruption. The money
was loaned, and in due time returned
with many presents. and pipes of wine.

The Temperance Crusade.

1t is curious to notice the different
forms which the temperance movement
assumes in different localities. In Ohio
the street-marches and saloon prayer
meetings are the order of the day, and
no other method Of closing dramshops
is now regarded as orthodox. In In
diana the efforts of the women are hap
PLY directed to the enforcement of the
hitherto ineffective Baxter law. In
Massachusetts efforts are made to in
duce property-holders to pledge them
selves not to allow liquor to be sold by
their tenants. The Rhode Island wo-
men wait upon the Legislature to petit
ton for the repeal of the Liquor-Li-
cense law. 1t is recorded that in Wilkes
barre, Pa, the crusade has the sin
gular result of driving two hundred
disreputable women away from the city.
The Washington people are asking for
Congressional prohibition. In New
York and Brooklyn no aggressive policy
has been definitely agreed upon, but a
good work is accomplished by the fire.
quent meetings, which call public at
tention to the magnitude of the evil of
drunkenness ; ana the warming voice of
the pulpit is raised Sunday after Sun
day with wholesome effect. Whatever
the method, and whatever may be the
exceptional excuses and indiscretions
of the reformers, they all have in view
n noble object, and we cannot withhold
a wish for their success, in so far as If
may promote human happiness with
ont infringement upon individual rights.

The population of London is 3,SS3,-
P92. This vast multitude is more than
the population of New York, Philadel-
phia, Brooklyn, Boston, and all the
leading American cities taken together.
Seven hundred and seventy-scven thou
sand dwellings lodge this vast multi
tude, which consumes annually about
4,4OO, 600 barrels of flour, 400, 900 bull
locks, 2.975,OOO sheep, $4,000 calves,
$3.50 hogs, n market alone supplying
annually 7,043, $50 head of game. This,
together with $3.50, 600 salmon, ire
spectiveo of other fish and flesh, is washed
down by $4,000, 900 gallons of ale and
porter, $500, 600 gallons of spirits. and
lib, $50 pipes of wine. To fill its milk
and cream jugs, %, $50 COWS are kept.
To light its streets at night, 63O, 900
gaslights consume every twenty-four

$3.50, 900 tons Of coal. The smoke of
this immense quantity of coal is so
dense as to be plainly seen thirty-six
Eliles from the city. To clothe this
multitude, it takes 4, 160 ~tailors, 80, 400
boot and shoemakers, nearly 20, 900
milliners and dressmakers, and 297, 500
domestic servants. The streets are
1900 in number, and if put together
would extend about 1900 miles. The
principal ones are traversed by about
1.5OO stages and 20, 200 cabs (besides
private carriages and carts), employing
80, 600 horses.

Maintenance Of a Uniform Temperature.

Gen. NORM has proposed a method,
both simple and inexpensive, of main
tanning a temperature as constant as
possible in a given locality. through all
the seasons of the year. TIE principle
he announces is simply that of regular
ly renewing the air of any given place
by causing cool air of a constant tenn
perature to flow into it, by the aid of a
moderate aspiration. In order to OBJ
tain this cool air. he states that, at a
depth of about 20 feet in the earth the
temperature is constant. and that it is
to this fact that is due the uniform
temperature of several French public
halls, alluded to by him, which are sup
piled with air drawn through subterra-
mean galleries. He gives, also, an elab-
crate calculation of the quantity of air,
at a given temperature, necessary to be
introduced into any apartment in order
to keep it in a uniform condition (some-
what cooler than the average summer
temporature) and shows that to main
tain such a temperature it is not neces-
sary to have to the employ
nent OF caves, expensive to construct
and t. keep free from watery infiltra-
but that, on the contrary, by a
proper arrangement of rooms one can
establish the reservoir of cold air either
at the level Of the soil or at a moderate
beneath it. giving It plenty of
fresh air and sunlight ; and in which q
a little lower than that of
can be maintained without
inconvenience.

A Word IN SEAsoN.-Health is a
blessing which comparatively few enjoy
in all its fuliness. Those endowed by
nature with robust frames and vigorous
constitutions should be careful not to
trifie with them.
When we enter the seasons of periodic
ftcrcrs, the increased heat OF the sun
develops a missma which pervades the
air. The evil is ine1tinguishable ; our
duty to guard against it is imperative .

in low marshy districts or new clear

ventive. DR. WALKERS CALIFORNIA
