The trustees of the charity of Peter
Lathom, once a beggar of Mawdsley,
near Preston, England, report that
the property which originally cost q
few hundreds, is now worth about
e57, 900. One block had recently been
sold for EST 900, the fabulous advance
in value being owing to the discovery
of coal on the land. Lathom left the
land for the benefit of the thrice
townships through which he had
begged, to keep and apprentice -four
lads, to further education and other
ph%ilanthropic uses.

THE PROSPECTUS.

The Cuckoo is an attempt to relieve
the dullness which has overgrown the
daily press. Our newspapers have
got their wheels into ruts; they rum
Bile along p%onderously, one after the
other, like a procession of omnibuses,
from a given point to a given point,
taking always the same route and
moving always at the same pace. This
single-line -Of-rail journalism seems to
us to have grown out of date. For in
stance, the age of the leading article
has passed, and the age of the para
graph has commenced. Men and
women do not nowadays care for the
solid fare that pleased a bygone gener-
alton; they ask for their nourishment
in lozenge form. Editors should econ
omize their their thunderbolts, as Ju.
piter did, for supreme occasions only.
The Cuckoo will therefore only use
the leading article in extremities of
importrnce-when the republic is
in danger. But it will contain, new
ertheless, from special sources, all the
news to be found in the rest of the
papers in London put together-and
more besides For, after all, the es7
sence of a whole drove of cattle can
be compressor into a single plate of
soup, The news of to-day will be Civ
en- In its essence, Invested of those lit
erary tropes and metaphors which
have hitherto constituted the stock in
trade Of the cheap journalist. but
which are limited to his vocabulary.
The latest kilograms will be translated
from the barbarOus jargon in which
they cross the wires, and will be rem
dered Ineligible, and that imprinted
but everywhere spoken gossip, which
is the actual salt Of the social salmi,
will find its daily record. Briefly, re-
cord and criticism will be in para
graph form, the news condensed and
sublimated, the comment Independent
and concise. All that has happened
in the previous twenty.four hours, all
that is announced or promised for the
next twenty-fOur hours, will he legi-
bly, and intelligibly set forth in clear
type, on good paper and in a handy
form"

How BEES ARE MADE II ARMIES.
The following contains a valuable hint
80 those who are obliged TO handle bees.
The little fellows are sharp strikers
when disturbed, but It seems there = q
very simple way 10 take the poison out
Of them. \ gentleman SAYS:
Some years ago 1 was visiting fam
ilyjn Sussex County. NJ, where large
number of hives of lees were kept In =
yard near the farmhouse. The bees
were unusually cross and belhEeTent
they would biz out vIth sugry fyke'
at any one who approached their ward.
On speaking to the old gentleman on the
subject. he said they were feeding on
buckwheat. and were full Of ''pizen. -
and he would cure them by the time
came again.
ON the next day found the bees quits
pacific and quiet, freely letting me come
quiet close TO their hives. On asking
for an explanation of their amiableness,
Mr. :. pointed to an efiigy hanging near
the bse-yaTd.
He had put this up in the night. In
the morning the swaying Of the efigy
excited the warlike little fellows, and
thev literally cOvFred their enemy all the
forenoon, until all had sCung him 10
their content. aud had exhausted all
their poison without harm to themselves
or others. Verify, knowledge is power.

CLIMATE AND CONFLEE TOS.-Ihere
is a great diversity Of opinion as TO the
difference OF complexion to be observed
among mankind. Roughly speaking.
the Lue Of the skin varies with the lat
itude. the fHiTer races having theiT
homes at distance from the equator;
the darker within or near the tropics.
This fact would seem TO point TO the
position Of the sun with reference TO
those On whom lie shines as the cause
But The question presents difficulties
which tLis sUpposition does not aid us
to solve At ,he same distance from
the equator We fud the Englishman,
the yellow MonEol and the cOpper-color-
ed Indian. To the north of the white
Russians and Firms live the swarthy
Lapp and Ssmoyed. North Of the eau
casus are daTk-skinnesl Tartars. south
of il iT-cumpiexiOued Circassiaus.
The aJOTigiues OF America vary less in
color than The natives of the old world.
None of them are as fair rs the Swede,
none as black as the negro Of Congo, and
those living in Brazil on the equator
are not the darkest. There are blacker
men in Australia and New Guinea than
in BoTneO and SumaJra, though these
islands are on the equator, and those are
not. The ShiiOoks of the upper Nils,
who live about ten degrees north Of che
equator. are blacker chan the MOnbut-
too, who are six degrees further south.

USES TO WHICH FROSTED POTATOES
MAY BE APPLIED. potatoes
have acquired a diSagreeable taste by
means of frost. they viii make good and
wholesome bread by boiling them, as
has been mentioned, with salt, mashing
or bruising them small. then kneading
them together with oatmeal. Not less
then two-thirds should consist OF meal,
which viii destroy the sweet taste, and
the dry and generous quality OF the meal
will effectually correct and destroy any
thing noxious in the injured roots.
Horses, swine, dogs, etc, may all be
fed with potatoes, though frosted, by
boiling them and mixing them with oats
coarsely ground. or with oat meal. al
ways adding a good quantity OF salt in
the mixture. Poultry may also be fed
with potatoes very much frosted, il mix
ed with oatmeal in about equal proper
tions, without salt, as this species OF
animal cannot admit OF it.

4 REMEDY FOR BROKEN LIMBs.-

broken at Port jefferson. The broken
limb MAS set and the leg was imbedded
in plaster of Paris. In two weeks the
horse could walk around the stable in

tance of hve miles, and three weeks aftel
the horse was driven TO a road wagon
