Losses bU ErespOrks.

The Committee on Statistics of the
National Board of Underwriters has
published a report on the losses by fire in
the United States on the Sd and 4th of
July, 1876, and showing the response
bility of fire crackers and fireworks in
~occasioning them. The losses on the
above mentioned days were less than for
the same days during several preceding
years, yet they destroyed property to the
value of 154,574.i6. The report is
based on official information obtained
from over eight hundred different cities
and towns. The value of fireworks of
American manufacture sold from 1865 to
1876 amounted to 50, $50, 900, and the in
voice value of all crackers imported
since january, 1865, is less than 81, $780,
900. The loss by two CONGREGATIONS
during the past twenty years, directly
attributable to them, was over SIS, O00,-
900. On one day only of the present
year the loss occasioned by crackers
amounted to twenty-five per cent. of the
total invoice value of all imported in
1875. DIT is not an e~xtravagant state
ment," continues the report, &c that every
dollars worth of f~ire-crackers imported
into this country has occasioned a direct
loss by fire of more than $780," If this
be true, the opposition of the Under
writers to the tolerance of fireworks is
not surprising. A table of cities having
ordinances against fireworks, etc., is ap-
pended. Cincinnati appears in the list,
but our readers do not need to be in
formed that the law is very nearly a dead
letter

Closing of the Exhibition.

The Great Exhibition closed on November
10. Rain fell steadily, but, in spite of the
discouraging weather, great numbers of
people were in attendance at the Centennial
Grounds to witness the formal closing of the
Exhibition. From early morning steam
and street cars going to the grounds were
crowded, and at two o'clock, the time of the
beginning of the ceremonies, it was esti-
mated that fully one hundred thousand
people were inside the Enclosure. Shortly
before two o'clock President Grant, escorted
by Governor Hawley, assembled to the plat
form, followed by the Centennial Commits
%sioners, Board of Finance. Foreign Com.

the excitement of the multitude, occasioned
by the presence of General Grant, had sub.
sided, the orchestra, under the direction OF
Theodore Thomas, performed Wagner's in.
auguratlOn march, composed for the open.
ing exercises on the 10th of May last. At its
conclusion, the Rev. Josheph A. Seiss of.
fered up a prayer. The chorus, accompanied
by the orchestra, then sans a choral, en-.
titled, "Fagrie," by s. Back, after which an
address was delivered by the Hon. Dan'l j

A CORRESPONDENT of the Country Gen
NemGn writes: 81 am a decided advo-
cate for milking COWS up to calving: if
the milk gets thick, throw it away, but
milk the COW. Always give her to un-
derstand that giving milk is her bust
ness, and keep her at it late and early.
If she should, by any possible means,
lose her life by giving too much milk,
she will have lost it in a good cause, and
saved her throat from the butchers

Poor hay and good straw are both
wanting in the muscle-forming elements
of nutrition, of the same character
corn containing ffty-ive per cent. of
starch. 1t is better, therefore, to mix
meal. If you will mix one quart with
the daily ration of straw and poor hay
for each animal, you will have profitable
food. The oil meal contains what the
straw lacks. If you had clover hay to
mix with the straw, corn meal might
properly be added for part of the food.
CLOSETS that are damp are dangerous
enemies to health. If your closets are
damp and engender a mold which en-
cases not only boots aud shoes, but also
other articles of wearing apparel, obtain
half a peck of unslacked lime and put it
in a shallow dish in the closet, and it
will absorb the dampness. When it be-
comes quite dry it should be renewed.
A damp house, however, is a patent
agent in producing diphtheria, neuralgia
and bronchial troubles, and no time
should be lost in making the cellar
damp-proof with cement; and the drain
ing from cutters and roofs should be at
tended to.
IN reply to correspondent, the Ameri
can AgricuAurist says: A dead horse Oh
other animal should be skinned, anC
roughly cut up into as many small piece
as possible a plot of ground a few rod
square should then be plowed deeply
and the carcass thrown upon the soil il
the center of the plowed ground. Som
fresh, d~ry-slacked lime should then b.
scattered upon the heap, so as to cove
it thinly but wholly. The loose eartl
should then be heaped over it, a foot il
depth, and the pile covered with boards
SO that the dogs cannot get to the heaI
and tear it up. If the least smell is pei
ceived, more earth should be throw
upon the heap. In three months tn
heap may be dug over, or turned owe
with the pillow, and well mixed. TIL
r bones that cannot be broken up shout
be taken from the heap, and the fine ma
ter will be worth, at least, twenty do
lars a ton, to use in the hill for corn Q
cotton. The larger bones may be broke
up and buried among the roots of crap
vines or fruit trees.

Master Booths SHUer HaF Dollar,

II seems almost incredible that a boy
only eight years old, or a person of any
age, could have carried in his esophagus
a silver half dollar for nearly three weeks
without experiencing any inconvenience,
except a frequent desire to spit, yet we
have the best evidence that such was the
case with the coin now on exhibition in
the Journal Office window. On Thursday,
the 10Th day of October, DR.. w. H.
Hazard, of Wakefield, was called to at
tend a little boy, eight years old, the SOB
of George Booth, of Peacedale, who, it
was said, had got a half dollar stuck in
his throat. DR.. Hazard was quite sure
that be felt the half dollar by the pres
sure of his hand on the neck externally.
On the 21st of October the boy came to
Providence and was examined by DIR.
Robert Millar, who, we are informed,
came to the conclusion that the boy was
mistaken, and that there was no half
dollar either in his throat or stomach.
On Sunday last the boy, while washing,
coughed up the one in our window.
WHEN a man has not a good reason
for doing a thing, he has one good reason

Gen. w. T. Sherman, Washington, d. c.:
Instruct Gen. Augur, in Louisiana, and Gen.
Ruger, in Florida, to be vigilant with the forces at
their command, TO preserve peace and good order,
and to see that the proper and legal Boards Of Can
vassers are unmolested in the performance of their
duties. Should there be any ground of suspicion
reported and denounced at once. No man worthy
of the office of President should be willing to hold
it if counted in or placed there by fraud. Either
party can afford to be disappointed in the result,
but the country can not afford to have the result
tainted by suspicion of illegal or false returns.
