Cows overcome by Aatulency, occa-
stoned by over feeding on green clo-
yer and similar food, are filled with
gases, the nature of which a French
chemist, NJ. Reiset, has been investiga-
ting. He found that the gas present
in the rumen of a COW which died two
hours after access to clover field
consisted Of nearly three-quarters car
bonic acid, and about one-quarter car
donated hydrogen, with a small frac,
ton Of nitrogen; hence he suggests
the employment of alkaline bodies foI
remedies. ordinary lurnt magnesia

Artificial parchment is made by
dipping sheet of strong paper into
solution Of sulphuric acid, mixed with
tenth Of IL weight of pure water.
II is held in this liquid for about
three seconds. and then washed thor
oughly in water and dried. Expert.
ments lately made in Dresden show
that paper thus prepared has a power

fore its immersion. The process is
sometimes used in Germany for less
delicate services, as envelopes for sau.

cheap Tefegr~php.

A new telegraph company, with the
title Of Continental, and with u capi-
tai of $40, ,0O0, 900, divided into shares
Of s25 each, and having for its avowed
object the reduction of telegraph rates,
in opposition to the Western Unicn
monopoly, has fled articles of incor-
porsiian with the County Clerk OF
New York city. A number of prom
iuent Philadelphia capitalists are NOV.
ing activity in the organization of the
new concern.
The capitalists having the matter
in charge, claim, and back their argu-
ment by forming the company, that a
perfect system of the fac simile or or
tographic telegraphy has been invent
ed, which will forward the message In
the original handwriting of the sender,
making more accurate and reliable
transmission, also much more expe
ditious one than is possible under the
system used by the Western Union
Company. 1t is guaranteed by the
fac smile invention that compared
with the present general system, thu
capacity of a wire can be quadrupled
and this, together with the remarka
ble improvements in batteries, the de
velopment of currents and other cheap
ening inventions, has lessened the cos
of telegraphing to one-tenth of what
was twenty years ago.-[Ph'ladeiphi

Comparative Values Of Hood.

Ii is great convenience to know
the comparative value of different
kinds of wood for fuel. Shellbark
hickory is regarded as the highest
standard Of our forest trees, and call
ing that 100, other trees will compare
with il for real value as fuel for house
purposes as follows: Shellbark hicko.
ry, 100; pignut hickory, %; white
oak. 81; white ash, II; dogwood, 75;
scrub oak, 7S; white hazel, 72; apple
tree, 20; red oak, 81; white beech s.;
black birch, 60; yellow oak, go; hard
maple, SO; white elm, 5s; red cedar,
56, wild cherry, So, yellow pine, 81;
chestnut, so; yellow poplar, 81; but
ternut and white birch, 43; white
pine, 80. 1t is worth bearing in mind
that in woods Of the same species there
is great difference, according to the
soil on which they grow. A tree
that grows on a wet, low, rich ground
will be less solid and less durable for
fuel. and therefore of a less value than
tree of the same kind that grows on
a dry aid poor soil. To the ordinary
purchaser oak is oak and pine is pine,
but for home use the tree grown on
dry upland and standing apart from
Others is worth a great deal more.

The remark is often made by the
careless farmer to his wife: The
shower last night has made It :, wet ]
eau not do any thing on the farm, 50
I will go to town to-day" At the
same time rank and greedy weeds are
growing in that mans corn fields,
along his fence rows, aud about his
barn yards. etc, preparing.a coPious
crop OF seed for next year. This wet
day is just the time to make war up
on them. They will pull up much
easier than any other time, and this
is the way to operate on them. for to
cut Of with hoe or scythc, they will
soon sprout from the stump and pro-
duce a crop. Now is the time, when
not otherwise employed, to go through
the corn-felds and pull out any weed
which the plow missed, such as cookie
burs. spanish needlel wild ar,ichokes,
and all Of the numerous class Of milk
weeds. Now is the time TO trim out
the noxious weeds which grow about
the garden fence, along private roads
and about the barn yard. Keep
away frown town. You have no bu-
sincss there.
Farmers gad to town five times as
often as they should, and they can
learn more by reading the pages OF
one good newspaper than by street
gossip for three days. When a man
has plenty to do at home, but hunts
up excuses TO go to town, his wife
should haud him some good paper,
with this article in it; and il he will
90. let il be understood that he goes
under protest. But in damp days du.
ring harvest, having or threshing, be
sure to destroy weeds. and haul out
manure; make some good pig troughs;
make a new singletree in place Of the
one which was broke; repair gates. so
that cattle will 10, trespas- on corn
fields, aud do thousand other things
needed to be done-but stay away
from town.
Any day in the year, if there has
teen rain to interfere " it'll the regu-
lar work on the farm, there is con-
slant stream of visitors on the road
going towards the place where idlers
congregate. The regular crops are de-
pleting and robbing our farms of their
fertility, without a crop Of poisonous
weeds being allowed to aid in the ex-
haustion.

The entire population of the globe is

three hundred are born IN the same

A Kentucky preacher rose to speak,
and opened the Bible. The first
verse that met his eyes happened to
he, "the voice OF the turtle shall be
heard in the land "Brethring,
said he, lat first sight one would not
think there was much in this text,
but On a little consideration, you will
see there's great deal in it. Now
you all know what Il turtle is. II
you've been along by a pond, YOU
have seen them ON log summing
themselves. Now, ii is said, The
voice Of the turtle shall he heard in
the land But the turtle hasn't any
voice, that anybody ever heard; so il
must be the noise he makes in plung-
ing of the log into the water. Hence
We conclude that immersion is meant,
and that immersion will become uni
yersal."

The following is from the pen Of the
sprightly authoress, Mary Clemmer.
She is writing from Washington City;
1T is rather the fashion to speak Of
Senators and Congressman as rowing
wolves who go prowling about seeking
whom they may devour. Save in ex-
ceptional cases. this is the opposite Of
the truth. They are quite ready
enough to be tempted and to fall when
the beautiful destroyer cries Eat
me! Eat me! J" But, at least, in
Washington they have not to turn
aside food. With every Congress
comes a small army of women, whose
entire business it is to prey upon men.
They food the galleries, they invade
the committee rooms, they "work up
claims" they write to strange Senators
and members letters Of decoy and in.
vitation-till many man who LEFT
his hearth with no more thought Of
evil than the wife he left at home, be-
comes ashamed to look her and his
children in the face. Sin is every.
where. But nowhere is ii so insidu-
Gus, secret, and wijespreading as it is
in capital. Instinctly and unfairly
men have come to associate politics
with such class Of women, as il poll.
tics, or anything else, were aught to
them but ministers Of their pleasures
and gain. These women do not
"yote," nor are they disturbingly
strong.minded. This covert, unhal.
lowed power Of women holding
government to their lowest passions is
precisely what gives to the high claim
of unsullied womanhood its most po-
tent claim to consideration.
