Three of Mr.. John Marks fine
mich cows have died with some
unknown disease within the past
few days and others are sick. 1t is
very unfortunate. He says they
were running on clover and herds
grass pasture, and that a COW will
90 dry instantly and sometimes die
in day after attacked. He will
probably save but one COW out OF
those attacked. His dairy wagon
was stopped yesterday, and will run
no more till the mysterious disease
abates. 1t will be a disappointment
to his customers, but he is the great
looser. Other cattle in the same
pasture and some in other neigh
borhoods are dying with the same
disease. Mr.. Tom Mohoney lost a
COW Tuesday night with it.

Longest Tunnel in America.

Few people know how great an engineering
enterprise is going on in Baltimore county
For one thing alone, Il tunnel six ana four
tifths of the distance through hard gneiss and
granite. 1t will be the longest tunnel IN the
country, and there will be only two larger in
the world-the Mont Gents, which Is eight
miles in length and the ST. Gothard, now In
progress of construction, and which is to be
nine and oneauarter miles. The fact that the
water supply tunnel lies near enough to the
surface to allow of numerous shafts greatly
facilitates its construction. The tunnel is IL
circle 12 feet in diameter, and extends from
The GunDowtler river, about eight miles from
the city, to Lake Montebelo--the distributing
reseryoir-near the Hartford turnpike, about
one mile and half from the city, the direc-
ton beng 26 deg. west OF south This tun-
mel will conduct the water from the Gunpow-
der river to Lake Montebello Thence con
duit, 4,l20 feet long, known us the Clifton Tun-
mel, from the fact that it passes under portion
ofthc Clifton Park, conducts the water to point
Just south of the Hartford road, where it en-
tors six MAINS each 4 feet in diameter which
convey the water to the city, IL distance Of
1900 feet. The country along the line Of the
works is hilly and the tunnel varies in depth
below the surface from 81 to 353 feet. There
are 10 shafts in the main tunnel, the deepest
extending 204 feet below the surface. The
water rains down from the crevices on the
rocks, and pours along the bottom OF the
drift. Gangs Of men, each with his miners
lamp attached to his hat, are hard at work
picking and delving in the iinty bowels Of
the earth; and the monotonous clang Of the
hammer upon the drill is constantly heard,
except when everything is in readiness for
firing a mine, when all retire to a safe distance,
and thunderous reports roll through the rocky
corridors The work of the tunneling is all
done by hand, it being cheaper than the ma
chine work in Il drift of such narrow diane
ter.-N0LtiMnlr GNzette.

CLOVES,

Uioyes are unopened flowers of small
evergreen tree, that resembles in appearance
The laurel or the bay. 1t is a native of the
Molucca or Spine Islands, but has been car
ried to all the warmer parts Of the world, and
is largely cultivated in the tropical regions of
America The flowers arc small in size and
yrow in large numbers in clusters at the very
end of the branches. The cloves we use are
the flowers gathered before they are opened
and whilst they are still green. After being
gathered they are smoked by "A wood fire ana
then dried in the sun. Each consists of tive
parts; Il round head, which is the four petals
or leaves of the flowers rolled up, inclosing 4
number of stocks and filaments. The other
part of the Glove is terminated with iou
points, and is in fact, the flower cup and the
unripe seed vessel. All these parts may bI
distinctly shown if a few leaves are soaked {
short time in hot water, when the leaves softer
and readily unroll.
