The friends of the Papacy are little
troubled Just now to account for AntO-
nelli's large fortune, which is said to
amount to about $1O,000,0O0, besides his
great collection of gems and other works
of art Sir George BOwyer writes to the
London Times that he probably inher-
tied it from an uncle in very moderate
circumstances, which makes people smile.
His enemies say, campaign style that it
was the product of unmitigated bribery,
while the judicious and moderate say it
was made up by long established per-
quisites received from persons having
business with the Papa court. But,
somehow, it does not look well. whatever
way one takes it ; and we should not he

sii:gTuG.

4 writer in Nrijacr for February, who
was an eye witness OF the battle in Mo-
bile Bay, takes the negative oI the above
question as follows:
"Whcn the fleet had crossed the bar
and was inside oi Sand Island, and had
approached 10 within about one mile and
quarter Of Fort Morgan, Admiral Far
mgut cooIIy and Deliberately assembled
the StarboarI main rigging and halted
just beneath the top. Passing his arm
up through the luhbcr's holr he seized
the foot ot the pilot, Martin Freeman,
who wus Standing in the maintop giving
orders to the hclm.man. The signal
gmrtcrmost,r, in obedience to the orders
Of Capt Drayton, took up hnmmock

why Seed syhcnt should bc
New.

In 1861 German agriculturist tested
the terminating powers of various seeds.
He took the wheat of 1851 and selected
100 grains, and found that in 1860 they
had lost all vitality, as not a kernel ger
minated, At the same time he had sown
100 grains Of the crop of 1854, 1865,
1857, 1853, 1859 and 1860 OF these the
results were as follows:
Out Of the 1O0gmins of 1854 there grew. g
Out OF the 100 grains Of 1865 there grew 1
Out Of the 100 grains Of 1857 there grew I3
Out Of the 100 grains Of 1865 there grew. 80
Out Of the 100 grains Of 1859 there grew. 81
Out of the 100 grains Of 1850 there grew. .06
From this it will be seen that wheat
after it is five years old does not grow,
and tht newer it is when sown the more
plants it furnishes But there is another
point that was proved by the French Az
ricultural Society by series of trials,
and that was that the plants were weak
er and did not tiller out as well. For
instance, the seed grown IN 1858 and
sown in 1856 did not sprout at all. The
seed, 100 in number, grown in 1854 only
had fity.one grow, and tour days after
coming up the leaves only measured an
average of half an inch in height and
the number ot stalks was 2G0 Of the
100 seeds of the wheat grown in 1855.
sevcnty-three germinated, but four days
after appearing above ground the leaves
were IN inch and two tenths high, and
the number OF stalks and ears produced
was 36j. But OF the seed grown in 1857
there were sevsnty.four out of the 100
germnated, and the length OF the leaves
four days after appearance above ground
averaged one inch and six.tcnths, while
the number Of stalks and ears from the
seed was 40l-showing plainly that new
wheat was the best for seed, as more of
it grew, and also what did grow seemed
to have more vitality, as the plants were

GIVING HIM PLENTY OF TINE. Tom
Harvard kepta gun shop in the town of
Riverside. Tom was tirst.class work
man, but distressingly dilatory in the
dispatch of business. He would meet
with his patrons with positive promise,
which he would renew month after

One day his neighhor Smith, who had
