Our exchanges throughout the
State are all hopeful concerning the
prospects for a good yield of fruit
this year. Some little doubt is ex-
pressed concerning the chances for a
full crop Of peaches, but even this
unfavorable feeling is not at all gen.
eral, while with regard to other
fruits the general impression seems
to be that there will be an unusually
good supply, The grain crops are
also expected to be large. In most
localities the wheat is in fair condi
ton, and in some above the average
at this time of year. The farmers
are not the only persons who have
reason to be pleased on this account
Good crops means good times for all,
and one or two successive prosperous
years for the agricultural classes will
bring every kind of business back to
its olden furnishing condition.-Reg-

Nations without Fire.

According toPiiny, fire was long
time unknown to the ancient Egypt
ians; and when Thales, the celebrat.
ed astronomer, showed it to them,
they were absolutely in rapture
The Persians, Phenicians, Greeks
and several other nations acknowledge
that their ancestors were without the
use of fire, and the Chinese confess
the same Of their progenitors. Plu,
tarch and other ancient writers speak
Of nations who, at the time they
wrote, knew not of the use of fire or
had just learned it. Facts of the
same kind are also attested by sew.
eral modern nations. The inbabi.
tants of the Marian Islands, which
were discovered in 1851, had no idea
of fire. Never was establishment
greater than theirs when they saw it
on the desert Magellan in one of their
islands. At first they believed it
was some kind of animal that fixed
to and fed upon wood. The inhabi.
tants of the PHILIPPINE and Canary
Islands were formerly equally ignor-
ant. Africa presents, even in our
day, tribes in this deplorable state.

The present discussion of the higher edu.
cation of young women, as also the ques-
ton as to opening our colleges and univer
sites to them, is important, but not most
important. But few girls can, at best, be
thus educated, and we are concerned more
for the general drift of our school and home
instruction, which is to give character to the
daughters, wives and mothers OF the nation.
1t is evident that, IN view of the new strain
that is now put upon onr girls, alike by
their privileges and burdens, a suitable ed,
ucation must be secured to them. The old
routine Of household discipline that trained
girls mainly to be cooks and seamstresses
will not do now, nor can we be for mo-
ment content with the new fashioned rage
for accomplishments, that aims to fit them
for the marriage market by dress, the dance
and the piano. Our girls have too much re
fnement in their make and their manners
to be drudges, and they have too much mind
and opportunity for using it to be dolls OF
parrots or music boxes. Life is becoming
for them somewhat serious, and they are
looking for teachers and helpers to guide
them in the new calls upon their powers
and patience. m -aa

loves Ingenuity.

A couple, not 100 miles from Manchester.
carried on their courtship in rather a novel
manner. A young man had fallen in love
with the daughter of his employer, but
from certain ideas of wealth match was
opposed by the father The consequence
was that the young man was forbidden to
visit his employers house. The old gentle
man was in the habit of wear
ing cloak, and the young couple
made hum the innocent bearer of their CORE
spondence. The lady pinned letter inside
the lining of the old mans cloak every day,
and when the father went into his counting
honse and threw off his cloak, the lover took
out the lady's epistle, read it and sent the
reply back in the same manner. Love and
ingenuity were finally successful.

How His Trousers Got Shortened.
TAllapfnun Chrpnicla

A certain gentleman purchased pair of
pants few days ago, which, upon being
tried on at home, he found to be too long.
That night he remarked to his wife that he
wished her to take off about an inch from
each leg, which would make them the de-
sired length. Being fond of teasing her
husband, she told hum that she shouldn't
do anything of the kind, and he retired
without having obtained promise from her
that she would attend to the matter. ASIA
Soon after he had left his room, however,
she, as matter of course, clipped off the
superfiuous inch, as she had been asked
TO do. The family is composed of six fe-
male members. and each one of the five,
who were in adjoining rooms, heard the dis
pute between man and wife, and after the
latter had taken off the required inca and
retired, tie old lady, desiring to keep peace
in the family" and not knowing what her
daughterin-law had done, cautiously slipped
into the room and cut off another inch.
In this way did each of the five ladies,
unknown to the other, and all with the
praiseworthy object of preventing any mis-
understanding between the couple, clip an
inch from the legs of the gentleman's
trousers. 81.
The following morning, all unconscious of
what had taken place during the night, he
rolled up his pants in piece of paper. and
took them to the tailor to be shortened to
the desired length. Upon a hasty glance
were already short but the owner insisted
that they were fully an inch too long. The
tailor had no more to say, and our friend
retired.
Onthe following Saturday he called for the
pants and took them home, and was
supremacy disguised at finding that the legs
reached only trlfile below the knee. He
straigbtway accused the tailor, but his wife
heard him and came to the rescue, explain
ing that she had taken an inch from each
of the legs, and her acknowledgement was
followed by that of each of the other five
ladies, when it was discovered that alto
gether the legs had been shortened to the
extent of seven inches.

curiositsss in Pomology.

I Some years ago one of our citizens bought
and set out some thrifty young apple trees.
On one of them he neglected to remove the
wooden label which was attached to one of
the limbs by "a copper wire. Two years
later he found that the copper wire was en-
tirely imbedded and out of sight in the bark
of the tree, and that year the limb was 30
heavily loaded with apples that he was
obliged to prop 1T up, while there was not a
blossom or apple on any other limb. Last
year one of our neIghbors. when his young
apple trees were IN full blossom, carefully
girdled some limbs on several trees, and the
thus treated, but this year those limbs have
blossomed full, and 40 blossoms on the
limbs that bore last year. Pomologists may
profit by further experiments in that direc-
