The Bag Gun.

Few visitors at the Centennial have fail ed to see the huge Krupp cannon on exhi- bition there, but probably not many have learned much of the manufactory in which they were made. It is situated at Essex Germany, and is probably the largest es- tablishment of the kind in the world. It is chsrscteristicslly German in it's size, com pleteness and the quality of it's manufac- ture. The works of the Krupp firm cover 1000 acres, and include buildings whose roofs cover POO acres of area. More than 1o,60 workmen find employment there, besides 5000 men that work in the mines and blast furnaces. The articles manufac- tured embrace sxles, tires, wheels, cross ings. rails and springs for railways and mines. shafts tor steamers, machinery. boil CT plates, spring steel, guns, gun carriages. and shot. There is 1, lO9 furnaces, 275 coke ovens. 274 smiths forges. 2os steam boil CTS, 29s steam engines. l,063 machines, 77 steam hammers and ls rolling trains. Last year the firm consumed 6l2, 900 tons ot coal and coke. 1,00O. .OOO, 900 gallons of wa ter. and 245. 100000 cubic feet of gas. The propristors own no less than 4l4 iron orc mines in Germany, besides several in Spain. Upon the premises are thlrty-five miles of railway for facilitating business in the works. There are nearly 8, 300 hous. @ in which the operators aad their famil- ies live. Probably no where else in the world is there congregated such mighty array of forces, human and mechanical. for supplying the various demands of man. kind in the way of iron and steel manufac- ture. The establishment has been 66 years growing into it's present collossal propor- tions. It is typical of the thoroughness and comprehensiveness with which the German mind investigates, builds, ana achieves its part in the world d'svaried and hefculean tasks.

Yellow Fever at the South.

A prlvate letter from MT. William R. Boyd, a native of this city and 6 brother ln-law of Mir. Ira W. Ford, contains som. facts of general interest. Mr. Boyd IS ln Savannah and has been working for forty seven consecutive days relieving the suf- ferers in that city without any pay but the
 satisfaction of the good he was doing The letter says :-s'I am quite proud of Connec- ticut. The Rev. Mr. Benedict and Captain J. F. Wheaton, both natives of the state have been two of our most earnest workers. It might seem immodest to class myself as one, but If 80 classed the credit belongs to the state. find that men of northern birth have less dread of the disease than those born here. Everybody here is work ed down and longs for rest. You may say to all you meet that tho predominant feel ing here is gratitude to those north who have sent us aid in our time of distress, and New England has not been behind in the good work.

ton of the teachers. The afternoon ones became sprightlY and amusing, Mrs. Wal ton imparting the animation and deligh, which always connects with her work. Miss spalter's teaching is of the highea, grade in her department.
 The evening lecture by Rev. Dr. Mayo of Springfield was one filled with thought. and suggestions wisely adapted to varied audience.
 Friday, both morning ane afternoon ses- sions increased Tn number of attendants. One very important lecture by Prof Dick icsoD. The exercises of new speakers wen forward with we'll sustained interest. MT. Ballard, principal of the Lenox Hign school, presented his method of awaken ng interest in the study of natural philos- ophY. He had orga' lzed \ society of his pupils and given it the gracious and sound ing title of "Agazzis Association" Prot Walton took 8 brief time at intervals in impsrting distinct instructions on several minor topics. A lesson from him on pri- mary grammar was particularly useful An example presented by hlm also of his method of teaching young children to read -In this he guided the lit.le ones to the us' of appropriate tones ID the school room. making the interchange between teacher and pupil to be genial and home-like. Tue effect of this was charming. To the teach CTS he said. Be sure of your method, ana then pursue 1t without encouragement Perseverance in a good method will finally bring success. Mrs. Walton added les son of advanced instruction in reading thai was excelently we'll adapted. Hon. Mr.. White, Sec, offered a. few remarks each session, at one time closing with the com~ mendation, ''To employ an observant eye, and bless God for his truth as presented to us in all it's forms and branches" The closing of the afternoon was by the secre- tary of the board rendering from his own research a curious account of the origin of the names of places.
 MT. White also spoke in the evening, giving minute statements as to the legal facts on some important points concerning public schools.
 The number of, teachers in attendance exceeded that which was expected by the managers, hence the duty of the commit tee on places was enlarged. Tue constant care of the Rev. Mr. Noble, who appear ed to perform all service in that line, is to be gratefully remembered. c. NJ. s.

A SCHOOL. Boy ON ,CoRNs -Corns ar oI two kinds-vegetable and animal. VegetabI. corn grows in rows, and animal corn grows on toes. There are several kinds of corn; there is the unicorn, capricorn, corn dol gers, field corn, and toe corn, which is th. corn you feel most. It is said, I belev. that gophers like corn, but persons having corns do not like to "go fur," if they Can help 1t. Corns have kernels, and sou. colOnels have corns. Vegetable corns grows on ears, but animal corn grows on the feet at the other end of the body. Another kind of corn IS the acorn: th.s, grow on oaks, but there IS no hoax abou, tue corn. The acorn is a corn with al
 nd' finite article, indeed. Try It and see. Many man when he has & corn wishes il was an acorn. Folks that have corns some- times send for doctor, and if the docto, himself IS corned he probably won't do 8,
 well as if he isn't. The doctor says corns are pro uced by tight boots and shoes,
 which is probably the reason why, when man is tight they say he is corned. If, farmer manages well, he can get a gooo deal of corn on an acre, but know of farmer that has one corn that makes tn, biggest acher on his farm. The bigger crop of vegetable corn 8 man raises th, better he likes it; but the bigger crop oi animal corn be raises. the better be does no, like it. Another kind of corn is the corr. dodger. The way it is made is very sim pie, and is as follows-that IS if you wan, to know: You go along the street and meet man you know has s corn. and 5 rough character; then step on the toe thai has a corn ou it. and see if you don't hay. occasion to dodge. In that way you vii. find out what corn dodger Is.

The rats of the wine vault have been highly fa- vored, having had their pick of food among the S,lton cheese from England, and the cheescs and Bologns sausag-s from Italy. which, becoming spoiled during the heats of summer, were abandoned to them and the rapidity with which the nuisance Was removed proved the raiders to be host.
