miles, as in winning well.contested

has proved perfectly successful, and
which is nov invariably followed when.
ever frui: is sent by rail, is to wrap each
bunch of grapes or fruit of other kinds
in soft tissue paper, surrounding it with
a slight padding of sweet bran as the
fruit is placed side by side in Il box.
The paper is put upon tho fruit in plain
folds, and not twisted into hard corners,
which may press into the next fruit and
spoil it. Much care is taken to have
each fruit thoroughly cnveloped in bran,
which is also settled into as compact a
mass as possible by slightly jarrIng each
box upon the packing bench after the
top layer is put in, and when it is quite
full a sheet of paper is put upon the
bran and the hinged Ind is closed by
hooks and eyelets of copper wire, and
securely corded. If this excellent old
method is only dono correctly all risk

4 Beautiful Sentiment.

Shortly before his departure for India,
the lamenteG Heber preached sermon,
which contained this beautiful scnti-
mont:
M,fe bears US on like the stream of a
mighty river. Our boat glides down
The narrow cbannel-through the playful
murmuring Of the little brook, and the
winding of its grassy borders. The trees
shed their blossoms over our young
heads, the flowers on the brink seem TO
offer themselves to our young hands ;
we are happy In hope, and grasp eager
ly the beauties around us-6ut the
stream burries on, and still our hands
are empty. Our course in youth and
manhood is along wilder food, amid
objects moro striking and magnificent.
We are animated at the moving pictures
of enjoyment and industry passing US,
we are excited at homo short-lived disap-
pointmcnt. The stream bears US on, and
our joys and grIefs are alike left behind
US. We maybe shipwrecked, we cannot
be delayed whether rough or smooth,
the river hastens TO its home, till the
roar Of the ocean is IN our ears, and the
tossing of the waves is beneath our feet,
and the land lessons from our eyes, and
the foods are lifted around US, and we
take our leave of earth and its inhabi-
tants, until of our further voyage there
is no witness, save thd 1nfnlte and Eter

Working Land on Shares.

Working land on shares seems TO be 6
poor business for both parties. 1t is to
the interest Of the tenant to spend as Int
tie for extra labor as possible, because
the owner of the land gets half the ben
eft, without bearing any of the expense
When the country was new and tho land
rich, man could, perhaps, afford &c
give half the products, as no could get
fair crops with little labor; but now that
the land is more or less run down, and
it is necessary to build it up with man
ure and good culture, IT is impossible
for q man to expend the necessary labor
ard give half The produce for rent. IL
may be done for "a year or two on land

Periodiclty Of Thunder Storms.

At Kremsmunstcr. in Bavaria, wealth.
or observations have been made for
moro than a century. Discussion OF
these observations, and of other obser-
vations made in Saxony, leads TO the con-
clusion that there is a periodicity in
tnundcr-storms as well as in other nat
ural phenomena. Won Behold says, IN
his paper on the subject, that IN years
when the temperature is high, and the
suns surface comparatively free from
spots, thunder-storms are abundant.
Since, moreover, the maxima OF the sun
spots coincide with the greatest intcnsi-
ty of auroral displays, it follows that
both groups of phenomena, thunder
storms and auroras, TO q certain extent
supplement each other, so that years of
frequent storms correspond TO those au-
roras, and rice rersa. 1t is pointed out
that this connection between sun-spots
and storms does not, by any means, sane
ton the superstition of direct electrical
interaction between the earth and sun,
but may be simply consequent Of de-
gree of isolation dependent on the sun
spots" The changes of isolation mani
fest themselves SUCCESSFULLY in different
ATTITUDES, and not contemporaneously.

The Two Causes.

The difference between Hampton and
Chamberlain 10 South Carolina, and Mich
oils and Packard in Louisiana, deserves at
tention. In each state the two hostile gov
ernments claim to have been elected and
to be supported by majority of the peo-
pie. But there is this important differ
ence: Hampton and Nichols ask nothing
from the federal government. They do
not want to be recognized or supported.
On the other hand, Packard and Cham
berlain ask to DE recognized and supported,
They do not contend that Mr., Hayes shall
merely officially declare them to be the
lawful governors; they demand that he
shall also furnish an army to protect them
and uphold them-to enforce their autho-
rity, subdue opposition, and serve as their
police-an army to remain in the state as
body guard till the next election-to give
them the support which the people, whose
choice they claim to be, refuse to give.
Is there any doubt about what ought to
be the administration decision in so plain
case? Suppose, instead of two states,
there were twenty or thirty eight in contest
between rival governments, and MIR. Hayes
should be asked to recognize and maintain
| the Republican claimant Ia each case
l
task? On one side are demanded federal
interference, armies, artillery and gunboats
to subject an unwilling people to the rule
OF man whom they detest and would de
pose; on the other is demanded nothing at
all, but the removal Of these armies, artil
lery and gunboats, and the leaving of the
whole question to the people. The cause
that Hampton and Nichols represent is
the cause of tranquility and stable order
