be supplied with pounded oyster-shells
or other similar substances, or she will
deposit eggs which are soft-shelled.'
These, in fact, are eggs which are pro-
tected by the inner membrane alone.
The pigment which colors many eggs
is also deposited by certain glands in
the uterus, and the brownish hue of
some hens eggs is due TO this. The
tinging of these eggs is largely owing
to the food, or more perhaps to the
coloring matter in the limy material
which the bird picks up. have been
informed by q friend that some fowls
which he obtained near Springfield,
where they had access to red sand
stone dust, laid eggs which were quite
brown; but upon being removed to
Boston and supplied with oyster shells,
deposited white eggs. The coloring
matter in some eggs is incorporated
completely throughout the substance
of the shell, as seen in the robin. In
Others this pigment is deposited in
spots, blotches, or lines. The latter
are often irregular, as in the orioles,
blackbirds, etc, where the markings
resemble hieroglyphics, and look as if
artifcially made. The spots and
blotches are often applied Just before
the egg enters the vagina, as in many
hawks, and they may readily be washed
off newly-laid egg. The time of
passage of an egg of common fowl
from the Ovary to the uterus is from
four to six hours; but it takes from
twelve to twenty hours to perfect it,

Conditional Pardons.

An important case has been settled
in Iowa, concerning the power of the
Governor to grant conditional pardons.
The Governor of the State pardoned a
man who had been sentenced to State
Prison for ten years on the conditions
that he should, during the remainder
of his term, abstain from the use of in
toxicating liquors as a beverage; that
he should exert himself for the support
of his mother and sister; and that he
should not be convicted during the
term of the sentence of any violation
of the criminal law. The act of par
don provided that, as to the first and
second of the conditions, the Governor
was to be Judge, and that, in the event
of the violation of either, he should
have the right to remand the prisoner
to custody for the remainder of the
term of his sentence. The prisoner ac-
cepted the conditions and was released.
Subsequently he fell into drunkenness,
and the Governor ordered his return to
State Prison. The question as to the
validity of this proceeding came before
the Supreme Court of Iowa, and it was
held by the Court that the Governor
had the right to grant a conditional
pardon, and upon the failure of the
party to fulfill the condition specified,
to replace him in the position in which
he would have been but for the pardon.

How Eggs are Made.

The Scientific Farmer, in an article
on the anatomical Structure of Birds"
by c. j. Maynard, gives the following
account of the development of the egg
in the domestic hen:
In studying the anatomical structure
and habits of prolific hen, we find
that man has taken advantage of three
important points in nature in order to
produce so useful bird. First the an
cestors of the bird in question laid
greater quantity of eggs at litter than
many other species-at least ten or
twelve. Second as is the habit of
many gallinaceous birds, they doubt
less laid their three litters, when robbed,
without intermission. Thirdly, they
had more than one breeding time in a
season. BY cultivating the first quail
ity, the number of eggs in the Ovaries
has been increased, causing an exten-
sion of the laying time; and for the
same reason the fowl is obliged to breed
oftener in year. Now | maintain
that we do not begin to understand
how far we may develop these organs
in hens by careful selections. We have
only to glance at the marvellous devel-
opment and changes in the plumage,
beaks, wattles, ETC., of fowls and
pigeons, to see that the bounds of ma
ture may be greatly extended, if not
overstepped. 1t is possible to believe
that breed of fowls may be produced
by a careful study of the ovaries and
other organs, which will exceed the
present breeds, excellent though they
be; as far as the best among them now
exceed the original jungle fowl.
When the egg in the ovary mas at
tanned the proper size, the calyx bursts
and the egg slips out into the
entrance of the oviduct. This
shrinks rapidly, and shortly be-
comes absorbed. The ripe egg passes
down the oviduct, in rotary course,
acquiring coating of albumen
as it goes, which is secreted by
the glands of the Oviduct, which lie in
longitudinal ridges. The first coating
is denser than that which follows, and
becomes drawn out into two lines,
which, by the winding motion of the
egg, are twisted in opposite directions.
They are called chalaz@. From the
oviduct the egg passes into the uterus,
where it is supplied with lining mem
brane and shell.
The shell, which is composed largely
of carbonate of lime, combined with a
little carbonate of magnesia, phosphate
of lime, and magnesia is secreted by
the glands of the uterus. 1t is quite
usual to find the shell-forming matter
deposited in small balls in the uterus
of fowl This is fine, whitish sub
stance, which under the microscope is
seen TO be made up of very minute
many-sided crystals. AS large suanti-
ty Of lime is required TO form the shells
of the eggs in hen that lays once a
day, 1t Is absolutely necessary that she

Ool. Ellsworth's Grave.

As drove through Mechanicsville-
a little hamlet which divides the thirty
mile ride from the Troy Boat-the
other day, l learned some new things.
The quaint old inn, painted with
yellow ochre, and covered with wood
bne, has been standing there half a
century.
Near by is the little wood cottage of
Ephraim +. Ellsworth, father of Col
Elmer +. Ellsworth, who was killed by
Jackson at the Marshall House, Alex
andria, in 1861. AS | used to know
the Colonel, having once roomed with
him few days, when we were boys,
in Washington, l felt an anxiety to see
his father and mother. So, in company
with young gentleman of the town,
| dropped in on the venerable pair.
The Ellsworth cottage is little wooden
country affair, with a story and half
upright and one story wing. Around
the house is u beautiful garden, filled
with growing vegetables and fruit trees.
Mr.. and Mrs. Ellsworth are vener-
able couple, and, childless, they live
alone in the world The only son,
who gave up his life for the Republic,
lies on the hill behind the house. The
aged father was lying on the bed with
rheumatic attaek--a disease which
they all have in this otherwise healthy
limestone region. Through the kind
ness of the late Secretary Stanton and
the martyred Lincoln, he holds mod
est position in the Champlain Arsenal
at Vergennes, n. Y. This small salary
enables him to live.

of the Colonel, taken while a Chicago
Zouave, and also while Colonel of the
Fire Zouaves. In one place over the
Colonel hung Frank Brownell, who so
quickly avenged his death by killing
Jackson. Near the Colonel hung Miss
Spofford, to whom he was engaged
when he was killed.
On the hill behind the house is the
fine monument which has been erected
to the honor of Col. Ellsworth.
"Who put up that monument" l
asked the gray-haired father.
"This is the way of it," said the old
gentleman. when Elmer's regiment
of Zouaves were bivouacked in the
Capitol in 81, Wizards Hotel caught
| fire, and Elmer let them all out to put
it out. The next day after the fire was
extinguished, the Willards sent him
$500, which he sent to James Kelley,
ex-Postmaster of New York, with the
idea of buying badges for his whole
regiment. When my son was killed,
the regiment voted this $500 toward
his monument; but voted, when it was
used, that certain long resolution
should be put on the stone; and I'm
told by stone cutters that it would have
cost $500 just to cut so many letters,
so we have to leave them off.

father, "was put up by Saratoga

since the beginning of the Government,
and by years of experience have proven
necessary for the proper auditing of the
Government accounts. Yet the Demo-
cratic House of Representatives estab-
lish new and extraordinary expensive
bureau in the Department of the Interior
the Office of Auditor of Railroad Ac-
counts.
1.-THE annual salary of the said Au-
ditor shall be, and is hereby fixed, at
the sum of $4,000. To assist the said
Auditor.to perform the duties of said of
flee, the Secretary of the Interior shall
appoint one book-keeper at an annual
salary of S2,400, one assistant book
keeper at an annual salary of $4,000,
one clerk at an annual salary of 81 400,
and one copyist at an annual salary of
S900.n
The Auditors of the Treasury Depart
ment, with hundreds of clerks under
each, charged with adjusting the volu-
minous and complicated accounts of the
army, navy and civil-service of the
Government, have never received more
than $4,000 per annum in the highest
priced times, and most of the time only
$4,000. The Commissioner of Patents,
charged with all the duties and response
bilities of that great Office, receives only
S4, 800 per annum, the Commissioner of
the General Land-Oflice 81, 900, and the
Commissioners of Indian Affairs and
Pensions S3, 500 and SO, 600 respectively.
But here is new officer, with three
clerks and q cOpyiSt under him, whose
salary is higher than any of the chiefs
of the great bureaus of the Government,
and whose two clerks receive salaries
equal to the highest of the heads of
divisions in those offices. That is re-
trenchment and reform with ven
geance-Democratic retrenchment and
economy.-NeU Republic.

DAVID sREY,S ESTATE.
ONO.

Over his forge stood David Grey,
And thought of the rich man cross the way
Hammer and anvil for me- he said,
And weary of toll for the children's bread.
For him, soft carpets and pictured walls,
A life Of ease in his spacious halls
The clang of bells on his dreaming broke;
A flicker of fame, whirl of smoke.
Ok in travis, forge grown whitc-hot
Coat and hat were alike forgot,
As up the highway the blacksmith ran
In face and mien like crazy man.
"School house afirer Mems hearts stood still
And the women prayed as women will.
While 'bove the tumultthe wailinR cry
of frightened children rose shrill and high.
Night in its shadows hid sun and earth;
The rich man sat by his costly hearth,
Lord of wild acres and untold gold
But wifeless childless, fOrlOrn and old.
He thought of the family cross the way;
l would" he sighed, " | were David Grey"
The blacksmith knelt at his children's bed
To look once more at each shining head.
"Nly darlings all safe! o Godr' he cried
MY sins in Thy bouudless mercy hide
only to-day learned how great
Hath been Thy bounty and my estate.

A California Mining Story.

Notmany miles from Shasta City is the
gulch, of which the following mining
story is told. 1t is pretty deep ravine,
with rocks showing all the way up the
sides. Gold in paying quantities had
been found along the stream, but it
seemed to disappear few feet from the
channel. One day, while a gang of busy
men were toiling in the stream, a
stranger, evidently green at mining,
came along and leaned on ragged ell
bows to watch with protruding eyes the
results of their toll. The miner nearest
him took out a five-dollar nugget, and
anxiety overcame the grrenhorn:
" S-a-a-y," he asked, "where can | go
to diggin to find it like that?" The
hardy miner stopped his work, and Civ
ing the wink to all the boys, so that the
joke should not be lost, pointed up on
the barren rocks where no gold had
ever been found. "Ye see that rough
looking placeP" "Yes, yes" said the
new hand. "Well, thar it is rich. Jes
We stake out claim an go ter work,
an when we finish here wei II come up,
too" Then the new hand thanked the
honest miner and the boys all grinned
appreciation of the joke. That after
noon there was solitary figure pick.
ing away on the slope, and every time
the miners looked up they roared with
laughter. But about the next day the
greenhorn struck pocket and took out
something like $4,000 in a few min
utcs. Then, innocent to the last, he
treated all around and thanked the
miner, who sent him up there, and took
his money and went down into the val
ley and bought him farm. Then the
unhappy miners arose, leaving their
old claims and dotted the hillside for
many days. But there were no more
pockets anywhere. The whole thing
reads just like a traditional fairy story.
But then l saw the gulch. Much more
unbelievable things have happened in
the mines. s.-jSdn Francisco Bulletin.

The New Congress.

THE Democracy elected sixty North
ern and Western members to the For
ty-tifth Congress out of 189. They sub
sequently unseated a Republican elected
from California and a Republican
elected from Massachusetts. In the
case of Colorado left open on the or
ganization of the House a Democrat
was seated by the most violent stretch
of power. The actual relative division
of parties made at the polls in the
North and West in 1876 was 129 Re-
publican to sixty Democratic seats, In
the South the division was fifteen Re-
publican to ninety-one Democratic
seats. Two Republicans in Louisiana
were unseated, and one died early in
the late session. 1t is threatened to
unseat next winter two Republicans
from South Carolina and one from
Florida; but this will depend on the
elections this fall for the Forty-sixth
House. These elections will undoubt-
edly result in close division between
the two great parties. A pronounced
working majority for the Republican
side will depend upon whether or not
the shotgun policy is resorted to in
South Carolina and Louisiana to keep
the colored voters from the polls. This
will determine six of the fifteen dis
tricts carried in 1876, and the same
policy would prevent the recovery of
two districts in Arkansas and at least
one (fairly carried in 1S76)in Alabama.
In the twenty-five States of the North
and West the Republican strength
ought to be raised from 129 to 149
seats, which would be clear majority
of the new House. There will be gains
in New England, New York, Pennsyl-
vania, New Jersey, Wisconsin and lii
nois, but probably aloss (by the recent
gerrymander) in Ohio. There is fair
chance for eight or ten members from
the South, depending, as to number,
on the three st. Louis districts of Mis-
souri,, now all held by the Republicans.
