The Ship Canal.

We clip the following from the Indi-
annapolis Journal, regarding the propos-
ed ship canal from Lake Michigan to
the Wabash:
To THE EDITOR Since the subject
of canal from Lake Michigan to the
Wabash river has been agitated, OBJ
serve several wild cOnjectures on the
subject of the difference of levels be-
tween Lake Michigan and the Wabash,
at Lafayette. In 1886, Messrs. STAINS
bury and Williams, engineers, made a
report to the legislature embracing the
surveys of the several public works,
then i'm progress in the State, to which
was appended table of attitudes.
From this Ell tab we extract the eleva-
tion of several points on the Wabash
with reference to the surface of Lake
Erie, which differs from.the level of
Lake Michigan only by the amount of
descent in the Detroit river, which at
most can be but few feet Wabash at
Huntington, 118 feet above Lake Erie !;
Wabash at the mouth of Salamonia, IS
feet above Lake Erie; Wabash at Wa
bash City, "a feet above Lake Erie !;
Wabash at mouth of Mississinewa, As
feet above Lake Erie; Wabash at Lo-
gansport, two feet below Lake Erie ;
Wabash at Lafayette, ~ feet below
Lake Erie; Wabash at Clinton Locks,
124 feet below Lake Erie Wabash at
Terre Haute, 13l feet below Lake Erie.

FARM AND HOME.
ADVICE TO A YOUNG FARMER.

But come young farmer, though by fortune fixed
On fields luxuriant, where The fruitful soil
Gives labor hope, where sheltering shades arise,
Thick fences guard, and bubbling fountains flow,
Where arabic and pastures duly mix;
Yet ere thy tolls begin, attend the muse,
And catch the moral lesson of her song
Be frugal and be blest; frugaiity
Will give thee competence; thy gains are small
Too small to bear profusion's wasteful hand
Make temperance thy companion, 50 shall health
Sit on thy brow, invigorate thy frame
To every useful work And if to these
Thou happily shalt join one virtue more
The love of industry, the glowing joy
Felt from each new imprOvement-thenf fair peace
With modest neatness in her decent garb
Shall walk around thy dwelling; while the great
Tired with the vast fatigue of Incidence,
Filled with disease by luxury and sloth,
imp atient curse the dilstory day,
And look with envy on thy happier state.

FROsTING FOR CAKES.

One pound best white sugar, the whites
of three fresh eggs, one teaspOOnful nice
starch pounded and sifted through a very
fine sieve, the juice of half lemon, and a

and brush it off with feather. Lay it on
smoothly with knife, and return the cake
to the oven twelve or fifteen minutes.

EFFECTS OF STUDY ON THE NERVOUS
SYSTEM.

EFFECTS OF STUDY ON THE NERVOUS
SYSTEM.
1. School work, if performed in an
unsuitable atmosphere, is peculiarly
productive of nervous fatigue, irritable
| ity and exhaustion.
2. By ''unsuitablev is chiefly meant
''close" air; or air that is hot enough to
flush the face, or cold enough to chill the
feet; or that is burnt" or infected
with noxiOus fumes Of sulphur or car
bOnic oxide.
8. Very few schools are quite free
from these faults.
4. Anxiety and stress of mind, de-
pendent mostly upon needless formali-
ties in discipline, or unwise appeals to
ambition, are capable of doing vast
harm. 1t is hard to say how much is
ACTUALLY done; but a strong sen timent
against such injudicious methods is OBJ
served to be springing up in the minds
of teachers.
5. The amount of study required has
not often been so great as would harm
scholars whose health is otherwise well
cared for.
6. Teachers who neglect exercise and
the rules of health seem to be almost
certain to become sickly or to 'break
down.
z. Gymnastics are peculiarly needed
by girls in large cities, but with the
present fashion of dress, gymnastics are
impraeticable for larger girls.
8. The health of girls at the period of
the development of the menstrual func-
ton ought to be watched over with
unsuual care by persons possessed of
tact, good judgment and a personal
knowledge of their characters.

THE POTATO BUG.


A correspondent of the Live Stock Record
says:
The following remedy for preventing the
ravages of the much-dreaded potato bug is
not only cheap and simple one, but one
which may be made very profitable to the
farmer and if true Though obtained from
a source which / cannot doubt), is dis
estimated. Your correspondent, while on
a recent visit to Woodford, heard two
prominent farmers of thai county discuss
ing the subject.
They held that in planting Irish potatoes
if every third row was left until the danger
from frost had passed, and then planted in
hemp, that no bugs, neither the terrapin-
shaped Colorado, or that species with long.
striped backs, resembling the Spanish fly,
would disturb vine in the patch. The
gentlemen did not profess to know or give
any scientific explanation of the fact: but
their theory was that the bugs had such an
antipathy to the hemp or its peculiar edor
that they would not live in its vicinity.
They were convinced of the fact from the
experience of their neighbors.
1t is fact known to gardeners and "Old
watermelon raisers," that tomato plant
set in watermelon hill until the sprouts
begin to vine, will effectually prevent their
being nolested by bugs, and if on sufficient
trial it is proven that hemp is as great q pro-
tector to the potato as it is thought by some
30 be, the discovery will indeed be boon,
not only to agriculturists, but to the thous-
ands Of poor whose principal vegetable is
the Irish potato.
