Not a Beverage.

"They are not beverage, but a medi-
cine, with curative properties of the
highest degree, containing no poor whis-
ky or poisonous drugs. They do rot
tear down an already debilitated sys-

tains more hops, that is, more real hop
strength, than barrel of ordinary beer.
Every druggist in Rochester sells them,
and the physicians prescribe them."-

A class of primary children were bu-

They read in order something like the
following: "The hat is in the box "The
man is in the box" "The lat is in the

suddenly up came little chubby hand,
the sign of permission to speak. "Well,

An exchange that ought to be well posted
speaking of the consumption of cotton by
American mills, says; "The largest estimate
of increased consumption for the year which
we have yet seen places it at 100000 bales
of equal weight with last years bales, but in
its details this estimate bears the marks of
manifest haste; ten per cent. increase or
100000 bales, through starting up of mills
and spindles; five per cent, or 5000 bales
from speeding, and fifteen per cent, or 234,-
600 bales, through running extra and double

"CorToN," a New Y rk weekly devoted
to the cotton interests of the country, SAYS
the cost Of raising cotton is about ga cents
per pound. If Cotton" was published in
the South by men who had practi.
cal knowledge of cotton raising, it would
make no such egregious .blunder. Eight
cents per pound is arer the
cost of producing cotton than 81 under the
present unreliable, almost worthless system
of labor. We have Southern farmers who

CONGRESS-, which some how or other, is al
ways slow TO do what it ought to do, and
prompt to do what it ought not, sits quietly
discussing political riders on appropriation
bills, or voting reflections of appropriations
to reduce congressional salaries and lets inn
portant matters attend to themselves. 1t is
a well known fact that the bar at the mouth
of Red river is an immense hindrance to tie
trade and commerce of a vast scope of coun-
try, to the portion of three States and to tie
navigation of three rivers, yet. Congress pays
no attea ton to it. The New Orleans Times
speaking Of this bar says: "The
bar at the mouth Of Red river, or
as it is sometimes called, Old river, is a great
obstruction to the commercial relations ex-
s,ing between this city and portions of the
States of Louisiana, Texas and Arkansas.
AT certain seasons of the year this river Is
not navigable for steamboats,, or, indeed, for
boats of any kind which draw more than two
feet of water. And yet the steamboats,
which navigate the Red Atchafalaya and
Ouschita rivers, and carry the supplies and
bring to market the products of the regions
of country tributary to these streams, must
cross the bar at the mouth of Old river. 1t
Is difficult TO understand, when the vast in.
terests involved are taken into consideration,
and the benefits which would follow the free
navigation Of this river are SO great, why the
government has neglected so long to take
prompt and effective measures for its i'm.

Curious Experiment ON Light and
Heat


If : piece Of wood be placed in decanter
Of water, snd the focus of large burning
glass be thrown upon it, the wood viii be
completely charred, though the sides of the
decsntcr through which the rays pass will
not be cracked nor in any way affected, nor
the water perceptibly warmed. II the wood
be taken cut, and the rays be thrown on the
water, neither the vessel nor its contents will
be in the least affected; but, if piece of
metal be put into the water, it soon becomes
too hot to be touched, and the water will
presently boil. Though pure water alone
contained in transparent vessel, cannot be
heated, yet, if bya little ink it be made of n
dark color, or the vessel itselfbe blackened,
the effect speedily takes place.
