Gen. LIE Due, the commissioner of
agriculture, is experimenting on a new
root called chufa. It grows in hills like
the potato, is about the size of a walnut
and has the flavor of an almond. 1t is
no trouble to raise, and the experiments
made demonstrate that hogs and chick
ems fed on it are of the most superior
quality, not only in their size, but in the
lucsious sweetness of their flesh. It is
predicted that chufa will become staple
crop among farmers in few years.
A snake charmer, named Samuel
Helms, of Lackawaxen, Pa, lost legacy
of S5, 900, recently left him under some
what romantic circumstances, by dying
five years too soon. He was divorced,
in 1864, from his wife, who pursued her
matrimonial ventures with such success
that, when she died, recently, she had
outlived two other husbands, and had
accumulated 800, 900 worth of property.
She bequeathed S., 600 of it to her first
husband, but, when the executor went
to hunt him up, he found that he had
died five years before in poverty and
want. :.

undated with soldiers; You would
find ii difficult matter to obtain ac-
commodation. Henry led the way
toward the house. AS they arrived,
Axinia looked astonished, and ush-
cred the newcomers into a chamber
separate from that in which Lodo-
iska reposed. With what blended
feelings OF joy, of happiness, and Of
terror and wonderment, did these
ladies now listen TO a rapid sketch OF
the trials and dangers which the men
had gone through in this terrible
campaign.
Mary wept gently in the arms OF
her brother, hiding her sweet face in
his bosom.
The Countess sat in silence but at
last she asked: Have you told me
all concerning Rasinski, Jaromir and
Boleslaus?"
Frederick paused in giving an an
swer, but at last said resolutely:
Every thing which can be comprised
in the few touches by which We have
endeavored to represent a picture OF
so disastrous scene"
In the meantime the state OF az
fairs in the town afforded but little
satisfaction to the friends. Night
moreover was setting in; they were
therefore constrained to await the
rising OF another sun.
The demand ofphysical nature now
became prasSiDO upOn the weary
wayfarers, and they all shortly lay In
profound sleep.
Early next morning Frederick and
Henry arose and sailed forth in
search Of Rasinski, they had not gone
many steps into a narrow lane, when
they met Rasinski, who was also In
search of his friends. The surprise

1t is gratifying to u.s. as lover of peace, to
be able to record that the imminent danger OF
international complications between the great
powers of Germany and New Jersey has teen
happily averted. 1t seems that New Jersey
police officer attempted to arrest the quarter
master of the German steamship Meckar,
while he was standing on the cOmpany's
wharf, but was ANONYMOUSLY elected ON the
ground that the wharf was German property
Returning with reinfOrcements, he captured
the guilty quartermaster, and carried him off
by main force TO Jail. As Germany is very
busy just now, and as the steamship captain
was plainly in the wrong and as he has been
cOnciiated, we are Justified in believing that
New Jersey will escape without the necessity
Of paying an indemnity.
