Never Get Angry.

1t does no good. Some sins have a
seeming compensation OF apOlogy-a
present qualification of SINE sort-but
anger has none. 1t is really a torment,
and when the storm of passion has
cleared away it leaves one to see that
he has been a fool, and has made him
self fool in the eyes of others too.
An angry man adds nothing to the well
fare of society. He may do some good
but more hurt. Heated passion makes
him a fire brand, and it is wonder that
it does not kindle flames Of discord on
every hand. Without much sensibility,
and often bereaft Of reason, he speak
eth like the piercing Of a sword, and
his tongue is an arrow shot out. He is
a bad element in any community, and
his removal would furnish occasion for
a day Of thanksgiving. Since, then,
anger is useless, needless, disgraceful,
without the least apology, and found
only in the bosom of fools, why should
it be INDUCED at alp

All quiet at this writing. The
news of the passage Of the Silver
Bill has given satisfaction, as far as
we have heard any expressions.
The escape Of 1IcKimia has been
the theme of conversation, and con-
siderable censure towards the officers
in charge Of the prisoner has been
expressed. We think such careless
ness is not excusabIe.
The moving of John NJ PerTy's
house was no small job. The under
takers, A. Stroup and G. AarhwoOd,
earned their money, but they finally
succeeded, and Mr.. Perry is hard at
work getting ready to occupy a
house of his own again.
Birthday dinners, surprise par
ties and silver weddings are all the
go now. All these are very nice
but let me suggest one idea. AS we
have so many poor around US, would
it not be more Christian like to visit
them and make their homes happy?
The death of mother Harris on
the 18th Of February, leaves a va
cancy in our community. She was
good woman. She leaves one daugh-
ter and two sons to mourn her loss.

that we all meet at your Office as
soon as you get moved intOyOur new

A SinFnIar FNct.

A recent traveller in Mexico, who Wis
tied the mines there during his jour
ney, says that be was much astonished
at seeing the men who carry the ore
come out Of the mine each with one eye
shut. The foreman, seeing his sur
prise, explained the matter. lie said
the cand|es belonging 10 the tarateros
iwhO drill and bIast) do not give sufi-
cient light in the drifts, where it is con-
sequently quite dark, but where, never
theless, the taraterOs see well enough
not to run their heads against the rocks.
But, on emerging into daylight, they
would be blinded did they not take pre-
cautiOnaTy measures. For this reason,
as they approach the mouth of the
shaft, at the point where they catch the
first glimpse of light, they drop the
eyelid of one eye, and keep this down
while they are dischaTging their ore and
until they have ere-descended the shaft.
When they are again in the dark, they
open the eye kept hitherto in reserve,
and at once they see everything dis
Iinctly; while the other eye, previously
open and somewhat blinded by the day
light, Perceives nothing at all.

French Vinegar and OIL.

A great part of the vinegar consumed
in Paris is produced by the distillatiOn
of vine stalks. 1t is much stronger
than the vinegar produced by the dis
tiIIation of wine, and it is consequently
reduced by the addition of water pre-
vious to being offered for sale. The
neighborhOod of Orleans produces the
greatest gu nifty of white wine vinegar
sold in Paris. A great proportion of
what is sold for olive oil is eitnerpO
oil OF beach oil, favored with olive
oil. Unadulterated olive oil, which is
scarce and dear in Paris, comes from
Provence (where the production is con-
stantly diminishing, from Genoa and
the island of Gambia. Algeria now
supplies large quantities Of olive oil.
Rape oil is produced chiefly in the de-
partments of the NOrd, the Pas lie CAL
ais, and CalvadOs, where the CUltiva-
ton of the plant is a source of great
wealth. 1t is used for the lamp, for
painting, and in various manufactures.
Fish oil, brought to France by the
boats engaged by the northern fishery,
is chiefly emplove p in dressing leather.

4 Grnnse Filtration.

In the breeding season, the cocks Sc
lect some hollow fallen tree, and strutt-
ing up and down, beat it with their
wings, making a mufied, drumming
sound, that can be heard for half mile.
The beat is at irregular intervals, be-
ginning slowly and measuredly, and
gradually increasing in quickness, until
it ends in a roll. If the bird succeeds
in finding a dry log, perfectly hollow
and well placed, his tattoo Of welcome
can be heard a mile, and is one of the
pleasantest of woodland sounds. It
has the same accelerated pace, and is
about the same duration as the call of
the raccOOn, and is only heard in the
daytime, as the raccOOn's is only heard
at night. When its mate hears the
drumming, she slowly approaches, and,
coquettishly picking at ses ds she does
not want, comes within sight Of the
drumming-lOg. NOmaiden is seeming
ly more unconscious of the man she de-
siTes to attract than is this russet dame
Of her gallant musician. A snail is on
the May-apple plant right before her;
she pecks at it three times before hit
ting it, and then scratches negligenCy
at imaginary seeds. The cock raises
ms ruff till it looks like Queen Eliza
beth's; the yellow skin beneath fushes
with pride; he spreads his tail like fan;
he thrums his guitar, clucks an intro
ductOrs welcome or two, and launches
himself out and flies to his bride. If,
however, another cock hears the drum
ming, he feels insuled at the sound on
what he considers his own domain. lie
flies to the drumming-lOg and dashes at
the brave drummer, and the one who is
inferior in courage and strength yields
his place to the bolder, and retires dis

Under Salisbury Grag, the everlast-

village by the shore of q lake half full
If swans and water lilies. If you were

collar that used to be clasped about the
necks of malefactors, who were thus
chained in public, and any one had the
privilege Of finsulting them to his hearts

though the collar still swings by the
chain to the veTitable post. Rev. John
Thompson, a landscape painter of some
note was rector of this church for five
and thirty years. His life must have
been placid as the lake itself, disturbed
only by the glance of the cOOt, the vOy,
age of the swan, the hum of the bees
and the fall of apple and plum blossoms
in the fresh breeze that dips over the
crag. From the pollard willows by the
lake shore, where children were race
ing the swans with toy boats, to the
dbrubt and inaccessible rock over the
top of Salisbury Crag, there was no spot
where the wild flowers had not been
freshly plucked, or where people were
net out piCnicing on ginger snaps and
pop. But 1 looked over the lovely hills
with intense pleasure, and marked them
all eagerly, for there was Walter ScJtt's

The recent death in China Of the old
est male descendant of COnfucius calls
attention to the curious fact that this
family is the only one which has retain
ed a grand position owing to a pedigree
derived from a peaceful thinker. This
family holds the highest place in the
kingdom, except the throne itself, and
has retained it for 2O2 years longer than
the Christian era. The gOvernOrship
Of the district surrounding the tomb of
the sage and an estate Of I85,OOO acres
are still held by the representative Of
the family, which now numbers over
eleven thousand persons, and all this
multitude are subject to him, while he
receives royal hOnOrs even from the
highest officials.

Nuts are true seeds, and differ from
fruits in having hard shells without
any soft OF pulpy enclosure. FrOl! the
earliest times nuts, especially acorns
and chestnUts, have been used for food,
and at the present day in Southern Eu-
rope chestnutS form a large portion of
the food of the labOring classes, who,
beside eating them raw and roasted,
make puddings Of them and polenta for
pastry. The chestnut is the most fari-
naceous and the least oily of all the
nuts, and therefore it is the most easy
Of digestion, but it requires boiling OF
roasting to burst the starch cells and
render it digestible. The chesLnuts of
Southern Europe are far superior in size
and perfection to those that grow in
colder climates. Though little used on
our tables, they make delicious des-

In domestic happiness, the wife's in
duenee is much greater than her hus-
bands. BY her management Of small
sums her husbands respectabiIity and
credit are created or destroyed. No
fortune can stand the constant leakages
of extravaganza and mismanagement; t;
and more is spent in trifes than woman
would easily believe. The one great
expense, whatever it may be, is turned
over and carefully reflected on ere in
CURED; the income is prepared to meet
it. But it is pennies impreceptibly
sliding away which do the mischief;
and this alone the wife can stop, for it
does not come within q mans provence.
There is often an unsupported Jrife to
be saved in every household. 1t is not
in economy alone that the wife s atten-
ton is so necessary, but in those mat
ters which make a well regulated house.
An unfinished cruet-stand,a a missing KEY
a buttonless shirt, a sOiled tabe-clOth, a
mustard-pOt with its old contents stick
ing hard and brown about it, are really
nothings; but each can raise an angry
word or cause discomfort.
