not entirely So. We mention these
remedies to point out a cheaper and
more efficient one, we'll known to enter;
prising farmers in the East. 1t is much
easier to plow an acre of land thorough
ly eight inches deep, four times, than to
cover the whole surface with gas lime
thick enough to kill the plants and to
render the plants afterward fit for cul-
tivation-or to apply salt, either singly
or to each plant, or thick enough to
cover and kill the heritage. We have
never found any difficulty in utterly
destroying Canada thistles in dense
patches of many acres by turning them
completely under in June, and three
times afterward in three successive
months-provided the work was so
thoroughly done that none of the plants
came above the surface. This remedy
succeeds best on heavy soils; on such are
light or gravelly more frequent blowing
may be necessary to fulfill the above
mentioned requisition. It will be seen
that this thorough blowing is not lost,
and puts the ground in excellent condi-
ton for winter wheat or rye, or other
succeeding crops. Any half way work,
or allowing the plants to see the light
will fail, and bunglers will not destroy
these intruders in q hundred years.

London Drawing Rooms,

There is quite rage in London for
decorating rooms for receiving visits
like the studio of painter. Velvets,
stuffs and silks of the last century, old
tapestry, &c., are worth their wei ght in
silver, and have become quite fashiona-
BILE. It is found that dark dresses look
we'll and gain brilliancy, or stand out
we'll, as I believe artists say, on the
ground of the rooms thus adorned. The
rich, faded old draperies and stuffs are
ad1oitly hung over sofas, screens, pianos,
and adapted to the walls; old china,
vases and everything in the way of what
we call bibelois, or nicknacks, are quite
prominent features in the reception
rooms. Pianos are now no longer placed
against the wall, but turned into cor.
ner, draped with old Henry H., embroid-
cred velvet or Louis XIV. silk, held up
by a Japanese. or China vase, and the
person seated at tho instrument faces
the, public. As this fashion has been
gradually, increasing for the last ten
years, France, Italy: and Spain have
been ransacked of these old textures,
and now the Paris and Lyons manufac.
turers are all composing limitations Of
old stuffs.

The Original Brother Jonathan.

The Original Brother Jonathan.
= Gov. Jonathan Trumbull, of .Connecs
ticut, was the original "Brother Jona-
than" He was always so addressed by
Gen: Washington, and finally the whole
Yankee nation, and especially New Eng
land became soubriquetted, character
lied, and identified in the person of
" Brother Jonathan Trumbull, a
plain, unassuming, honest, common-sense
man, who resided in Lebanon. When in
full dress, "Brother Jonathan" Trum-
bull looked very much as he is now rep
resented in what is generally supposed to
be caricature. he was of a tall, gaunt
form, and wore aswallow-tail home-spun
coat, manufactured in his family out Of
wool raised on his own farm, and colored
with maple bark procured from his own
wood pile, the dye being set with iron
filings obtained from the blacksmith
shop in the neighborhood. His genteel,
tight fitting trousers, reaching six
inches short of his ankles, were made oil
striped linsey-woolsey, prepared and
spun in his own family.-Phsladelphio

Supping With Eoyaltv.

At ball given recently in honor of
the Prince of Wales, small table in an
alcove was reserved for his royal high
ness and his intimates. The ball was at
its height. The prince led one of his
partners to the table, followed by some
OF the most distinguished guests. Two
chairs, however, remained unoccupied.
A heated parson' supporting still more
heated partner, deserted the vacant
places and Immediately swooped down
upon them. In vain the courtiers
nodded, winked and beckoned; his rev.
erence meant supper, and was not to be
denied. At last Charles EBoresford,
always fertile in. recourse, dropped on
his knees, and, crawling under the table,
pulled the parson by the leg.. It was OF
40 avail; the reverend gentleman merely
kicked out, and continued bis attack on
the good things intended for royalty.

This Sarsaparilla is combination of
vegetable alternatives - Stillingia, Man
drake, Yellow Dock with the Iodidcs
of Potassium and Iron, and is the most
efficacious medicine yet known for
the diseases it is intended to cure.
Its ingredients are so skilfully CON-
bined, that the full Alternative effect of
each is assured, and while it is so mild
as to be harmless even to children, it is
still SO effectual as to purge out from the
system those impurities and corruptions
which develop into loathsome disease.
The reputation it enjoys is derived
from its cures, and the confidence which
prominent physicians all over the coun-
try repose in it, prove their experience
of its usefulness.
Certificates attesting it's virtues have
accumulated, and are constantly being
received, and as many of these cases are
publicly known, they furnish convincing
evidence Of the superiority of this Sar-
saparilla over every other Alternative

Miles in his valuable work on "Stock
Breeding" Felch, on the contrary,
whose strain of light Brahmas is unsur-
passed, contends, after years of expert
ence, that there is no ground for the
opinion. Being somewhat incredulous.
1 instituted the past spring the following
experiment: My pure light Brahmas
and brown Leghorns had run together
all winter. February LIST removed my
light Brahma cocks, and in three weeks
put fifteen brown Leghorn eggs under a
sitting hen. repeated this at intervals
OF seven days for four weeks, when l re-
moved my Leghorn cocks and returned
the Brahmas: Three weeks after this
set fifteen Brahma eggs, week later
fifteen more, and so on, till as before
had four hens engaged in the work of
incubation. The first brood in each
case furnished two. or three chickens,
whose purity there was some slight
reason to doubt. The others, and there
were over fifty of the light Brahmas,
show not the least mark of impurity.
But, says one, it will crop out; just give
it time. Most certainly I shall do SO.
I shall keep the Brahmas and breed from
them, and if it does crop out I shall see
it, and will as certainly report. ~.

Washington special says: Assistant Sec.

Of sugsr admitted duty free into the
port OF San Francisco from the Sand
wich Islands during the mouth Of Au
gust would have paid, if imported from
any other country. revenue to the
amount Of $4,000. This sugar was
ostensibly the product Of the Sandwich
Islands. and therefore was. under the
treaty With that country, not subject to
Customs duties. The increasing i'm
portations under the treaty have at
tracted the attention OF Treasury Depart
ment. French says there is reason to
believe that sugar is being shipped TO

TO San Francisco, to evade the pay ment
Of duties. An investigation Of this
