brambles on Pit Hole Greek. 1t was a
lad place TO die and be buried. There
was neither priest nor cemetery, and
only three others TO join me in giving
aim back to earth.
The cause of this terrible disaster,
when discovered, appeared to be one OF
the Yeriest trltles that ever wrought out
human misery. A little stream of oil,
no larger tnan a finger, had wandered off
rom the stagnant pool, and falling into
u creVice OF the ground, had trickled off
a hundred yards and communicated
with the fire of the engine at The next
we'll. The result was Instantaneous; a
lighted train of powder could hardly
nave flashed back more quickly than this
combushbe fluid; the gas which sur.
charged the AIR exploded, the flames
rushed into the oil, and the whole scene
was instantly a mass Of fire. After ey-
erything in the Vicinity that was at all
combustible had been consumed, and
after the fire was, with the most des-
perate eXertIons and dangers, cut OF
from the adjacent wells and their ac-
cumulated stores of oil, this we'll contin-
ued TO burn in steady stream of fire,
which rushed from the mouth Of the pipe
With a roaring noise, Illuminating the
scene all night. 1t was finally extin-
guished by raising a great pile of earth
until it covered the pipe and smothered
The flame.

Magnitude of the Farming Interest.

II has been stated on good authority,
and can easily be made to appear from
the census returns Of 1870, that in The
United States there are in round num-
bers twelYe million five hundred thou
sand bread earners. BY the fruits of the
| labor of these miliions natiens are sub
sisted. They supply food, shelter and
raiment to the forty millions OF people
who make up our own population. Thus
it is seen that every bread Garner has to
ill, on an average, little more than
| three mouths.
or the whole number of these bread
earners there are not less than six mild
| ions (about one-nalf) engaged in agri-
cultural pursuits, ana nearly two mill.
ions in their rural trades and callings,
making with their food dependents a
total Of not less than tWenty-lour mill
ions of consumers.
The manufacturers, including all
classes OF operators, earn bread for
about two million people. The CONNER
cial classes, including all that properly
belong to them, support two and half
millions; the railroad and express COM
panies about half u million, and the
miners nearly half a million more.
Yet while agriculture and mechanics
taken together feed ten times as many
as commerce, tWvllty times as many as
manufacturers, and fifty times as many
as railroad companies, yet the least OF
these, by combination and management,
exert far more influence in the country
and incomparably more power with the
Government than The Uillers OF the soil,
and tnis for the simple reason that the
latter do not exert the power Which they
might, in the protection OF their own ill.,

Keep busy. The man who has moth.

II you have no regular work, do chores,
as farmers do when it rams too hard to
work in the field. In occupation we

from sorrow. Tue man whose mind and
hands are busy finds no time TO weep

lime in reading. No man ever knew
too much. TIE hardest students in the

A CORRESPONDENT writes to the Lon
don Figaro Of late date: n won't
vouch for the following, but am told
that a young man, to whom astronon-
ical science had ever been 1 subject
of keen investigation, recently went
up to the keeper Of a street telescope.
and, having paid his money, was told
to pick out any star he pleased and
gaze thcrcat. After: feeling about
heavenwards with the tude for some
time, be became wrapt in the study Of
some object Of evident interest. He
positively glued his eyes to the tele-
scope, and he looked SO long that the
owner struck in with, f'Yonng man, if
you propose to monopdlize the instru-
mcnt, you must pay more" He paid
more-without removing his eyes
from the opcning-and for fifteen min
utes longer he kept a raptured and un-
interrupted gaze upon the heavens,
and paid his regular assessment every
time he was called upon to do SO.
Suddenly, with long drawn sigh, he
left the instrument, and walked on.
The next man that took look through
the telescope saw only the darkened
window Of a far-oT house. The heav-
cnly body, having completed the ar
rangement Of its back hair, had gone
to bed.n e-ae4.a 4
