We had no idea of the extent to
which counterieiting legal tender and nation
al-currency notes has been carried, There
are one or more ilrst-rate engravers engaged
in the bush ess, aud when they get a plate
for one State they can alter the name of the
bank in it by having that portion of the plate
arranged so as to change one name for an
other 1t will be seen that in this way they
can issue notes for as many banks OF State
as they choose with the one plate. Some Of
the counterfeits are coarse and easily detect
ed. Some are fitted to deceive even an ex-
pert. OF some, very few notes are in circu.
lstion; OF others, quite number. The lol-
lowing Is the list, which has been furnished

Church Ball.

A short time ago u Polish Catholic
church, with Rev. A. Delberg Millenozky,
pastor, was established at 3l4 Henry street,
New York. In rear OF the church a room was
fitted up for fairs and balls, the proceeds OF
which il is alleged vent to the support OF the
services in the church. On Thursday night
OF each week ball was gwen, admission ten
cents. The people Of the neighborhood de-
cided that the place was a nuisance, and its
abatement was ordered. So, one evening,
when the young folks rad gathered in force,
and lager was flowing fresh, and fun was
most voeilerous, detachment of police made
a descent on it and took forty five young men
and twelve girls, labout enc hundred manag-
ing to get away marching all to station
house, Rev. Adelbert at the head. Next
morning all were released but the pastor
Other Catholic elergymen in the neigibor-
hood have FRI quently denounced the hall and

Al one time it was conceded that the
fall blowing should all be finished up
in this State by the first of November,
Now as general rule the land can be
plowed Us late rs the Goth of that
month, but it is best to get all the land
plowcd possibly before the heavy
frosts will prevent the foul seed in the
and from sprouting. That all land in
tended for wheat, oats, potatoes, and
in fact anything except corn, should
be plowed in the fall Of the year, no
one will dispute. The farmers of this
state, have pretty near three months
in the fall Of the year to plow, after
their wheat and oat crops are re-
moved.

Wheat, MS far as crop Estimates are
concerned, the improvement Is as sadly lack
ing as on the local prices The year has not
been favorable one in any direction. Where
the grasshoppers have not eaten up every
green thing, including the wheat stalks, the
hot weather, without seasonable rains, seems
to have shrunk the berry, so that fields that
promised fairly are actually yielding scarcely
enough to pay the thresher. A crop Of 49,

ticeable in the specuativ, maj kets, for wheat

be lost in day 1t is still too early to make
calculations upon the probable value Of the
years crop of the wheat growing regions. In
TACT, calculations Of this kind almost always
fail. The wisest representations generally
find themselves at fault They can usually
show by statistics how the markets ought to
rule, as regards prices; and the markets,
with a most aggravating perversity, generally

We have been a resident of Minneso.
Ia, ever since, and before it had a ter
ritorial organization, and have noticed
that wheat brings larger price just
after harvest than at any subsequent
period of the year. 1t appears to be a
kind of a law of nature that this
should be so. Thewhys, and wherefores
we have nothing to say about; only ii
is SO. Whether this year can be count
ed in the catagory remains to be seen.

Movements of BlOOd-VeSsels.

DIR. Mosso, of Turin, has devised a
delicate apparatus for measuring the
movements Of the blCod-vessels in man.
It's operation is briefly described in
Nature, from which we copy the &C
count. 1t consists in inclosing a part
of the body-the forearm, e. gin a
glass cylinder with a caoutchouc ring,
filling the cylinder with tepid water, and
measuring, by a special apparatus, the
quantity Of water which flows out or in
through a tube connected with the
cylinder, as the air expands or contracts.
An opening in the cylinders connected
by piece of caoutchouc tubing with a
glass tube opening downwards into a
test tube suspended from double
pulley with counterpoise, to which the
recording lever is attached, in a vessel
containing mixture of alcohol and
water. When the vessels of the arm
dilate, water passes from the cylinder
into the test-tube, which is thereby i'm
mersed further, SO that the counter
poise rises; in the opposite case, water
flows back from the test-tube into the
cylinder, the test-tube rises, and the
counterpoise descends." DR.. Mosso
employs the plethysneog1aph, as the
apparatus is called, among other ends,
in studying the effect of thought and
emotion upon the circulation. The in
strument reveals the slightest emotions
by the changes they produce in the
blood-vessels. Thus the entrance into
the room, during the experiment, of a
person in whom the subject is interest
al diminishns tho vol1,mo IF tho foro
arm to Is centime tres. "The work
of the brain during the solution of an
arithmetical or other problem, or the
reading of passage difficult to under
stand, is always accompanied by con-
traction Of the vessels proportional to
the effort of thought"

FARMERS having calves which do not
thrive, should look to their bedding.
Ii they are obliged to stand and lie on
Ice, or worse yet, on wet manure, it is
impossible to make them grow, or even
to keep IN a healthy condition. The
blood IN their feet and legs circulates
poorly and becomes diseased. This
added to the discomfort they suffer pre-
vents growth. They are not only set
back in size and take ON bad shapes,
but are permanently injured Clear

Educated Wild Ducks.

w. ii. Jardine, of Point Mouliere,
Mich, is said to have educated five
wild ducks to very fine point They
go where and when they please, come
at call, and accompany their teacher to
the hunting grounds, either perched on
the boat or swimming by its side. At
the marshes they act as decoys, until
they attract flying ducks, who come
down and are shot; while the tame
ducks "stand up in the water and
scream with delight. The days sport
over, they either fly home or ride in the
boat, as Mr.. Jardine directs.
