1t seems that the Waco was lying With
head to the gale, and the fire, which first
appeared forward on deck, had caught
in q large quantity Of Oil and swept over
the vessel. burning everything before It.
Fifteen vessels were lying at anchor.
thirteen Of which We re to the leewNd OF
the Waco. The supposition is that II
any of the passengers or crew had aP-
peared on the vessels deck, or the boats
had been launched. they would lave
been seen by some Of the other vessels,
none Of which can confirm the first ru-
mors of seeing boats pass through the
feet. The impression Is now gaining
ground that not . soul on board the i'll
tated vessel Is alive.

Portuguese Peasant Women.

A scrap of intelligence comes from
Portugal that has some value in its bear
ing upon the controversy Owe the rela-
tive strength and endurance of men and
women. In the rural districts of this
kingdom the women work in the fields
from early childhood, sharing to the full
the toll and fare of the men. Yet q
more healthy, comedy, and contented
race of women is not met with the wide
world over. No pale, thin. careworn
matrons or maids are found among them,
but almost without exception, they arc
vigorous in frame, strong and 1.-the in
step, and cheerful and winning in coun.
~tenance. Something Of this ia to be
ascribed to the feeling of security and
independence that comes from . sure
tenure of their homes, which, though
rented, are retained for generations on
generations on comfortable terms. Some.
thing is owing, too, to q genial climste
and to comparative ease with which the
necessities of life a be provided. Yet
the fact tends to show that with identi-
cal habits of living, the physical powers
of men and women should be equal.

Muscles and Steam.

A recent German writer says that .
a bundle Of muscle fbres is q kind of
machine consisting of albumlnous ma
terixl, just as a steam engine is made of
steel, iron, brass, ETC., and, q in the
steam engine, coal is burnt in order to
produce force, 50 in the muscular ma
chine, fats or hydrocarbons, are burned
tor the same purpose; and just Is the con-
structive material of the engine-iron,
etc--is worn away aud oxidized, thu
constructive material of the muscle Is
worn away. and this wearing away il the
source Of the nitrogenous constituents
of the urine. This theory, it IL asserted,
explains Why, during muscular exertiou,
the excretion of urea is little or not 1t
all increased, while that Of carbonic ac,d
is greatly augmented: for, in q steam
engine mod erately fred and ready for
use, the oxidation of iron, etc, would 20
on quite equibly, and would not b
much increased BY the more rapid firing
for working, but much more
coal would be burned when it was q
work than when it vas Standing idle.
This is in substance, IN old theory b.
geniously improved upon.

Reauty for Ashes.

i:eau'y for ashes thou hast brought me, dearI
At'me there was when all my eonl lay waste.
A. the earth dark before the dawning lies
Whcreto the golden feet Of morn make haste.
Like morn thou contest, gladnesf In thine eyes.
And & ac.ous pity round thine ardent mouth
Like rain Of summer upon wasted lands,
Thy tender tears refreshed my spirits drou,h.
To-day is calm. Far Of the tempest raves
That long ago swept dead men TO the shore
can for get how those wild pillows broke
Against my hopes and me they break no more.
White butterflies fit shining in the sun
Red ses burst to bloom upon the tree
Birds III to birds till the glad day lie done,
The day Of beauty thou hast brought to ME.
Shall I forget, o gentle heart and true.
How thy fair dawn has risen on my night
Turned dark TO day all golden thro' and thro'-

Cherrv Trees.

These should never be highly MANFRED.
Singular as it may seem, better results
have been obtained by growing cherry
trees in grass than By ~cultivating them
as highly as pears. Experienced fruit
growers IN Delaware, who once began q
system OF manuring and treatment Of
cherry trees, found, after an experience
of q few years, that the bark would
burst, gum would ooze out, and many
portions of the trees show an unhealthy
condition. The growers Immediately
discontinued high feeding, and seeded
the land to grass. The trees recovered
their health, and have borne beautifully
since the system of grass culture began.
1t is the only fruit tee Of all varieties
which we can safely recommend to be
treated in this way. A Delaware friend
saws his row of cherry trees, growing in
srsss along the fences. are the picture

lions years, with orchard culture, he

FARM, ORCHARD AND GARDEN.
CnShelled Corn.

Corn loses one-ifth by drying, and
wheat one! fourteenth. From this the
estimate is made that it is more profits
ble for the farmer to sell unshelled core
in the fall at Is cents than at 81 a
bushel in the following summer; and
that wheat at 81 25 in December is
equal to 81 so in tho succeeding June.
In case of potatoes-taking those that
rot and are otherwise lost-together
with the shrinkage, there is little doubt
that between October and June the loss
to the owner who holds them is not less
than 33 per cent.
