through force pump, and four or five
feet wide at the surface Of the ground, in
proportion to the size desired, making the
excavation about ten feet in depth. and as
near the shape of an egg as possible with
the larger end down. Use agrubbing hoe
to smooth down the walls with. This
circular form insures a. stronger wall
than fiat surface. Wall up with brick
bats, as these will make smoother wall
than whole brick, and lay them in
cement. Mortar made of common lime
will answer for this purpose, however.
The wall should be gradually drawn in
toward the surface of the ground until an
aperture is left large enough to admit the
workman, and then should be extended
about two feet above so as to admit of
filling in. A frame should then be placed
around it, filled in with dirt. and plat
form placed over the whole.
Assuming that a supply of clean, sharp
sand and barrel of water lime have
been provided; mix in small quantities at
a time, as the mortar will set in few
minutes if allowed to stand. Add one
part of lime to two parts of sand. Put
on coat of mortar, let stand twenty-four
hours, and add another. Do not let the
plastering dry, but keep the cistern COW
cred day or two until the mortar hardens
somewhat. and then let the water in it
convenient, by placing something on the
bottom to prevent the falling of the water
from removing the mortar before it fully
hardens.
Where bricks are scarce the plastering
may be done directly on the earth with
good results, but it is better to have
enough to arch over the top with, by CON-
mencing upon an offset in the wall, at a
point where the dirt is firm enough. The
fall is good time at which to build a
cistern, and if you have neither skill nor
the tools to do the work with, get the as
sistance of mason and the job may
soon be dOne.-Western Rural.

complied, and the Chief followed Scarce

said again: "Moye along, Jo." Much

There is reaper whose name is Death.

He reaps the bearded grain at a breath,
Ana the flowers that grow between.
Shall have naught that is fair:" said he,
Have naught but the bearded grain!
Though the breath of these flowers Is sweet to me.

He gazed at the flowers with fearful eyes,
He kissed their dropping leaves;
1t was for the Lord OF Paradise
He bound them in his sheaves.
" My Lord hath need of these howerets gay"
The reaper said and smiled;
" Dear tokens OF the earth are they,
Where He was once child. ~
" They shall all bloom in fields of light,
Transpl tnted by my care;
And saints, upon their garments white,
The sacred blossoms wear"
And the mother gave, in tears and pain,
The flowers she most did love:
She knew she could find them all again
In the fields of light above.
Oh! not in cruelty. not in wrath,
The reaper came that day;
Twas au angel visited the green earth,
And took the flowers away.

Gen. W. T. Sherman, ommanding United States

S1R-In view of the existing condition of
affairs in South Carolina, there is possitil-

against such a contingency, you will imme-
diately order all the available force in the

troops in such localities that they may oe

OF resistance to the authority of the

may thus be avoided; but you will instruct
Gen. Ruger to let it be known that it is the
fixed purpose of the Government TO carry
out the spirit of the proclamation, and to
sustain it by the military force Of the Gen.
eral Government, supplemented, if ncccs-
sary, by the militia Of the various States.

Soft Water for Family Use--How to
Make q Cistern.

WHY so many families are without an
abundance of soft water is not easily &C.
counted for, in land where people have
roofs to their houses, and where surchMged
clouds so frequently let fall copious show
ers of pure soft water upon them, and
why they continually allow the caves OF
all the buildings to remain without the
water trough, and to send down their
sheets of water, every time it rains to
spatter the walls and to hurry on the
process of decay in the foundations by
keeping them continually saturated by
water, Is q problem equally difficult of
solution, when it might be turned into q
cistern and made of so much use. The
neglect to put up the troughs is not as
strange as that farmers allow themselves
to foregu the satisfaction of an abundance
of fresh water during n lifetime, it
may be-. Is ~ 80 s5Art. ..
The expense of constructing q good sub:
