WINTER PROTECTION.

Il is better to wait until the ground is
frozen at least two or three inches In
depth before we place litter or protect
ing material OF any kind over the roots
of herbaceous plants, shrubs or trees.
Frozen earth will form better nom
CONDUCTOR than unfrozen earth. The
protecting material will tend to keep it
thus frozen and prevent its freezing
deeper. The litter if unrotted will pro-
tect far better than if decompOsed.
Well-rotted manure, though it enriches
the soil ard nourshes the plant in the
spring, must frebiy conduce 60 protec-
tion against cod, since the mass is HON
cgeneous AND connected. Additional
litter placed over the earth when it is
deepest frozen is advantageous, protect
ing the i3e--so to speak--and prevent
ing exposure to the intense cold that
may follow.
We should bear in mind that our first
obi ect is to keep roots frozen from the
time they are first frozen until such time
in the spring when there is no longer
any danger Of severe weather.
Frozen roots can never suffer from
drouth, nor, as is very evident, from the
fatal effects Of alternate freezing and
thawing E. S. G.

From the Spectroscope.

From the Spectroscope.
For long time it has been the
custom with certain class ofpeople,
to frighten little children with terri
BILE descriptions of the death bed re-
morse of another class of people
who conscientiously and intelligent
ly reject the doctrines of orthodoxy.
Not a few revival sermons have been
based wholly upon unauthenciated
statements concerning the horrors OF
toe last moments Of men who are
stigmatlzed as ''unchristian." Prob
ably not one of these assertions can
be proven. Agony usually sits
grimly supreme by the dying bed ;
lit is her hour Of triumph !; but in
that supremest hour thoughtful man
wastes little over the trivialities OF
belief. He is in a struggle; he bat
ties for his lite, and when he finds
that he is vanquished remorse. if it
comes, is for evil deeds; for wasted
opportunities for crimes committed.
We are heartily glad that book
is about to be published in New
York, giving the carefully gathered
facts concerning the death hours Of
the most noted men who have devo-
ted their lives to a protest against
dogma This work proposes to
prove beyond doubt, that the popu-
lar ideas concerning these men in
their last hours are wholly fallacious;
the mere inventions ofidle, ignorant
or mischievous brains, and used for
the purpose of frightening children
and the unthinking into an adoption
Of certain tenets held as religious.

TENDER 18th to nth, 1875: BY Benjamin F. Ia
Tor, Eco,
The following is the closing part of the poem
KEEPING YOUNG.
The finest art of earthly arts
Is growing young when we are gray.
The oldest Kings on earth to day
Are old, dilapidat ed hearts.
When they are touched with earthly frost.
Then all that's loveliest in life
And all that's worth its chate and strife
Is loat beyond princes cost,
Is lost forever and day!
Now benedietion OF q State
Where lingering age is always late,
Whose sons are boys from frat to last,
And daughters girls till life be past.
1t gives me solemn joy to think,
Although we stand upon the brink
OF graves, that when the dust OF men
Is tramped by feet of other men.
And they, in turn, are tramped again,
This stately realm will hear the chime
Ofclocks that strike her gold len prime

about 1000 feet, we shall find this
rock, and with it flow of arteslan
water. Above this water-bearing
stone we have q vein of Hudson river
slate SO familiar to many. Immedi-
ately over this Hudson river slate
we shall find the most interesting
bed of rocks in the entire series the
Trenton and the Galena lime stone.
This stone is filled with skeletons
mass of mollusks-rich in minerals,
mostly lead. These molusks--these
hydroi des- existed in the older sea
and in their growth and life, took
up portions of copper from the water,
which at death was deposited with
their skeletons at the bottom. Their
bodies were formed largely of car
bon, which has a great affinity for
lead. When the hydroid died this
carbon was set free and uniting with
the lead in the water it was precipi
tated at the bottom ana to-day we
find it IN the Trenton and Galena
lime stone-the lead bearing rock of.
our own and other countries. There
must have been an uprising of the
rocks about this time, for heretofore
all the rocks were deep-sea rocks );
but everything this lead-bearing
| lime stone, we have rock-the
/ Clinton rock-which always forms
in shallow sea. This Clinton rock
is mainly formed Of fossil sea weed
the weed growing in a shallow
sea, dying and decaying at the bot
tom. Above this sea-weed rock,
we find shale rock which never
forms in shallow, but in a deep
sea therefore the bottom of this old
sea must have sank again-but not
suddenly. The bottom of he sea where
this mass of shale was formed everything
tue Clinton rock, must have settled
slowly as proved bv the kinds of shells
found imbeded in and through this bed
of shale. 1t must-accord to the

tom of shale, we will find the Niagara
lime stone, the youngest rock in Wiscon-
sin, which is found in masses or beds.
This Niagara lime stone lies about a
hundred feet below the surface at KEN
osha rich in fossil formations. After
the formation of this stone, there was an
uprising, and the first dry land appeared
"a small spot in the north eastern part
of Wisconsin. This occurred during the

The Rgyptlan Rulers Roy al Gift to Gen.
- & Shesman.s Daughter.
The wedding gift from the khedive of
Egypt to the daughter of Gen. Sherman
has reached New York.
The present is a parure Of diamonds,
necklace and ear-drops, said to be the
most magnificent and valuable in this
country. The necklace is composed of
four strands of diamonds, each of which
is brilliant. Not one of them is worth
less than 81 ZOO. The chain is studded
with the gems, and they are set so closely
toeethsr - to hide the gold. There are
so many of them that the deputy col
lector of customs tired in the count. He
counted three hundred and fifty, which
is only about half of the whole number.
The strands are joined by ten immense
stones. each of which is encircled by
smaller gems. The one in front is the
size of hickory nut, and is worth $2O,-
600. Pendant from the front il fes-
toon Of brilliants with five big pear
shaped stones of finest water lustre
hanging from it. The ornaments for
the ear are single stones equally as
large as the rest. The entire get is ap-
praised at from $3.50. 900 to $500, 900.
The case for the jewels is plain moroc-
90, without inscription. As soon as the
secretary Of the treasury orders a free
permit for them, under the special act
of congress, they are to be delivered to
the Turkish minister, and by him pre-
sented to the fair bride on behalf of the
Egyptian potentate, in recognition of
valuable advice given by Gen. Sherman,
when in Egypt, as t , the reorganization
of the khedive's army.

Cabinet Day In Washington.

Save the Boston Post correspondent :
Wednesday is Cabinet day in Washing
ton, and there is q terrible flutter among
the ladies on those days, says the gos-
sips. As Mrs. Fish is supposed to be
the most elegant in manners, her hand
some residence is filed during calling
hours by the foreign and best home ele-
ement. Mrs. Fish is q great favsrite
with foreigners. They consider her
manners the most finished and courtly
of any official lady in America, and they
pay great court to Miss Filth, the fair,
slender, quiet-eyed daughter, who will
in time mature into likeness OF her
mother. At these receptions carpet
stretches from the carriage stone to the
hall door, over which the dainty feet
and apparel of fashions favorite child
rem pass. At the entrance liveried SER
wants open the hall door, take the cards
on silver salvers and announce all en-
frances to the hostess, who stands just
inside the drawing room ready to well
come her gusts. You say "good
morning." make some trivial remark
and "pass on" to the ladies assisting,
thus giving those following an oppor-
tunity to repeat the Same polite moth
ings. If these arduous attempts at
conversation prove too much for ones
fortitude and strength, coffee and choc-
olate, with little bouillon, or roast
fowl, served in the further room, may
revive one sufficiently to enable proper
adieux to be made. Apropos, a fem
mime correspondent says: ga Mrs.
Noble, of New York, is making US pine
and die from sheer envy of her toilets,
they are SO magnificent. I use the
word advisedly, we'll knowing its oft
repeated use has nearly worn off its
but imagine me emphasiz-
ing magnificent as only a woman can,
and maybe you will take in what I
mean; you will if you are woman,
but will not if man, for men are so
very stupid"

Ladies' Shoes.

The shoes worn by ladies at present
are far more sensible than those lately
in fashion. The design now is to give
symmetrical shape and ease to the foot,
rather than to cramp it into unnatural
smallness. For this purpose the best
shoemakers now use French lasts made
precisely the shape of the foot, out
lining the taper of the foot on top, and
giving ample width of sole. Shoes
made in tLis way do not cramp the toes,
or bind the instep, or force out tho
tender joints to form bunions, MS the
narrow shoes of the past few years
have done. Another sensible feature
of the present style is the low, broad
heel, which gives the foot a natural.
easy and heathful position, very diff
ferent from that suffered when the
high, narrow French heels were in
vogue.
