Observation-Disclosures.

Mrs. Henry Ward Beecher gives her opin-
ion Of some matters touching her sex as
follows "That fashion aud style, gentility,
and the customs approved Of by the highest
type of society have greatly increased the
manual labor of housekeeping cannot be
doubted Every servant added TO family
detracts largely from real home enjoyment
and the enjoyable privacy of domestic life.
Yet 1t is an evil that cannot be avoided if
one shows any Difference to the established
etiquette of society; for without more help
than our mothers found necessary the mis-
tress OF modern homes must be over-bur-
dened with labor. 1t is sad truth that the
increased tax on time and strength, the
greatly augmented labor called for by the
extra work demanded, if one conforms to
the customs that style has sanctioned, is
rapidly breaking up homes and building up
boarding-houses, thus filling our cities with
feeble, nervous, hysterical women. Too Sc
we're labor has doubtless broken down many
excellent constitutions but not half so many
as boarding, instead Of keeping house, has
done. The release from homely household
cares does not tend to build up woman's
strength or character. The time thus gained
is not very largely spent in doing good 10
others, or in study and efforts TO acquire
knowledge, but an incessant round OF gaiety
and self-indulgence Parties balls, theaters,
concerts the superficial culture gained by
going from one picture gallery or school of
art to another, fill up the hours that once
were better employed. Who will dare sur
mise how much of this time is given to
gossip rather than in securing by such
roaming life any substantial mental or artis
tic culture But this is not the worst. The
hours of the day do suffice to accomplish all
this; but the feeble women who cannot en-
dure the burden of housekeeping are out on
this wearisome dissipation till close on to
the small hours, when they return home
no, not home, but to their boarding houses -
jaded, nervous, out Of spirits, often out Of
temper and hysterical. To gain strength
for the next days duties they cannot rise
till quite late in the forenoon. A strong
cup of coffee must be brought to the bedside
to brace up the tagging nerves for the great
burden Of dressing aud repetition Of the
same follies. Does any honest truth-loving
woman believe that our hardest worked
housekeepers encounter half so much ex-
haustive fatigue, use up half so much vital
force, or half so fatally break down the
nervous SYSTEM as those who, to escape care
and labor, have exchanged homes, of which
they were the queens, for boarding-house ?"

The Power OF Faith.

Faith works with hope and love it is
faith that worketh by love. The contro-
versy Of faith and works has its ground in
empty and abstract theories. True faith is
one with works, and good works are one
with faith, because both alike have right
eousness for their end. Therefore faith in
Christ brings us into that righteousness, in
in the fulfilment of which he came into the
world. There is no legal fiction, there is no
fictitious transference of righteousness, but
there is an actual participation in the right
eousness of life which had in the Christ its
perfect fulflment. Through faith there is
communion with the Christ in his eternal
life. st. Paul says he was raised again for
our justification. This right that was vim
dicated over death and declared in his res
direction from the dead, is ours-the proper
righteousness of man, and in him to men.
The love and forgiveness of God,
the will of God toward man, is made known
to man in the Christ. This love is the
ground, and not the sequence of faith. The
Christ is the author and the fnisher Of our
faith. Through faith there is the knowl-
edge of the love and the forgiveness of God,
and through faith there is righteousness of
| life. There is, then, no condemnation to
him that believeth, who walks not after the
| flesh, but after the spirit. Through faith
man comes into the life of God, the life of
love and righteousness This is the true
life of man. 1t apprehends in the ground
Of life the love of God, and in the fulfilment
of righteousness the will of God. This is
the foundation of the life of the family and
the nation, and though it may not seem
justified in the physical process, without it

LIQUID Manure.

Mr.. Edaor:-Last year | wrote communi-
cations for your columns in regard to the
saving and applying of urine as practiced at
the stables and on the farms of II. Story of
Irasburgh and l.. Smead of South Albany,
Vermont This subject had never been pre-
sented to me in so important light pre-
viously, and therefore the cisterns, the guam
tity saved, together with the drawing and
spreading apparatus, were described at some
length. But the kindly criticism OF II.
touch the subject lightly. He writes: al
see that Jameson is saving on that old
string, the Liquids from an Animal, but
don't give the first lisp of any well attested
experiment. Such writers are doing agri-
culture more harm than good" Notwith-
standing the dullness of some persons in
seeing the value of experiments, venture
to mention some of the results Of the pres
ent spring at Mr.. Story's: The pit under
the stable of fourteen cows was heightened
so as to go under the horse stable where two
or three horses were kept. The liquid was
drawn out in the same tub as last year,
holding one hundred gallons. Last year
there were forty loads; this year seventy
two loads. This large increase is attributed
not to the horses so much as to the fact that
the milk was fed to the COWS and they there
fore drank more liquid and voided more
than in the previous winter. Would it not
be safe TO estimate the yield of each COW at
five hundred gallons or five thousand pounds?
At another stable he had an equal amount,
but it was partly made up from the drainage
of manure heaps outside the barn. Part OF
this liquid was drawn out when there was
some snow upon the ground, and applied to
grass. The hay crop showed plainly the
line Of application, and the rankest growth
was where the stopper was first drawn out
and there was the most rapid discharge Of
the liquid. Mr.. Story favors applying this
top dressing where there is a good stand OF
good grass rather than on very poor land
and is inclined to advise and practice more
copious application. Instead of a two-inct
hole in the bottom of the tub, hole foul
inches square is none to big. lie also favor:
a tub or box twice as big as he now uses
as this only holds about half ton. Tn,
application of the earth from under the
stable, which was made last year, upon grass
doubled the yield and is sending forward q
second crop II sand had been used as al
absorbent, about two hundred tons woult
have been required to absorb seventy-twc
tons of liquid. If muck or saw-dust wal
used it, required handling as many tons o
absorbent as of liquid. Let no one complair
of poor crops who wilfully wastes half thu
manure. u. T.. JAMESON.

Treatment OF Old Apple Trees.

II. c. Gilbert of Randolph, Vermont, thus
describes his success in restoring old apple
trees to fruitfulness al live in Randolph,
on the hill that is, near the center of the
town. The soil is dark loan with
clay subsoil, and every way well adapted to
orcharding bought the farm twelve years
ago last spring and found upon it only four
apple trees. These had been set out about
eighteen years. and were some six or seven
inches in diameter. | was very busy the
first four or five years in building and i'm
proving my farm and set out no apple trees,
and paid no attention TO the four that had.
In the spring Of 1872 dug around three of
these trees (the fourth being badly shaded
by maple tree l paid no attention to iD,
turning the soil over with common potato
digger for space of twenty feet in di-
ameter. then put around each one small
two-horse wagon load of stable manure, and
worked it into the soil with manure fork.
Then after a rain gave the trees thorough
scraping with a hoe, bodies and limbs, re-
moving all rough bark and moss then cut
off all dead limbs, sprouts or suckers have
used no more manure since, but have
mulched them with India wheat straw and
potato tops. Now for the result l had
never gathered from these trees more than
six bushels of apples in any one year, and
those were of inferior quality. The trees
soon commenced to grow, the foliage turn
ing dark green, while before it was sick
lied DER with the pale hue of DEATH and the
fruit increased rapidly both in quality an
quantity. will now give amount gathered
in three years ending with 1879: Tree N o.
l, Tolman Sweet, in II yielded ten and one
half bushels rs, six bushels; 70, eight
bushels tree No. ., variety, winter, keep
ing perfect until May, yielded in II, four
teen bushels; in rs, eight bushels and in
70, thirteen bushels. From tree No. 3, a
Golden Russet, picked in II six bush els
in rs four bushels, and in 70, seven bush
els, making in all seventy-six and one-half
bushels in three years from those three trees.
Now the point | wish to make in regard to
these old trees is this If the tree is not too
far gone (Which must be determined by the
owner), it can be most wonderfully improved
by liberal application of manure and con-
stant and thorough taking care Of"

A Fair ReplY.

A Harvard college man recently, in an ex-
change, undertook to sneer at the stud dents
educated in the industrial colleges endowed
by the grant made TO establish them by the
United States government, as state pau
pers." u. f. j. thus replied to him: "Mr.
Barnes argument, that because the state
has contributed aids TO industrial education,
or as he expresses it, because, 1t was de-
cided to declare that the classes needing this
training were so poor that the state must in
terfere in the matter of their support, and
thus the schools are state charities and the
scholars (benefciaries) state paupers,' is in
my view a sentiment unworthy of any free
citizen, and very unjust in its nature to the
poor youth of our land. 1t has ever been
the pride Of all classes that the schools are
free to the poorest scholar. Nation, states
and towns have woven into their laws and
usages methods Of raising money for schools,
never intimating that the youth are paupers.
Clergymen and presidents of colleges boldly
ask and freely receive money to establish
sectarian schools or classical colleges, and all
engaged in this good work should feel that
they are doing Gods service by caring for
the children. The young man educated
gratuitously has always been able to retain
his self-respect and to go forth among men
to the ministry, to the practice of law or
medicine, without any stain upon his char
acter. With the same preparation in order
to become farmer, shall he be styled estate
pauper 2" Education must commonly come
to the boy before he arrives at the age when
his labor or his own business ventures af.
ford him means to pay school bills. The
child is always poor. The parents, or 80
ceties, or the state, invests money in his
school expenses, trusting that his future life
will be so much more efficient that the in
vestment will be good one. If the educa-
tion fits the young man to engage in the
most important industry in the nation, is he
any more pauper than he would be in the
pulpit Let no such invidious distinctions
be made. Let us hope that the agricultural
education of the future may blend the ser
vices of both art and science in one common
object"

Equal to the Occasion,

Chambers Journal relates the following:
When Lord Liverpool was forming his min.
istry in 1922, he thought it absolutely nec-
essary to have Canning at the foreign off ,e,
although aware the appointment would be
obnoxious to George ". The Duke of
Wellington undertook the unpleasa1 ut task
of communicating Lord Liverpool's deter
mination, and went to Brighton for that
purpose As soon as the king knew what
was wanted of him, he broke out Arthur,
it is impossible / said on my honor as a
gentleman, he should never be one of my
ministers again. | am sure you will agree
with me that ] cannot do what said on my
honor as a gentleman / would not do
Another man would have been silenced, but
the great soldier, always equal to an emer-
gency, replied: "Pardon me, sir, but | don't
agree with you at all. Your majesty is not
a gentleman" The bold assertion startled
the king, but the duke went on "Your
ma esty is not a gentleman, but the sover-
eign of England, with duties to your people
far above any to yourself, and these duties
render it imperative that you should EN-
ploy the abilities of Mr.. Canning" "Well,
Arthur" said the king, drawing long
breath, " If must, l must" Although he
did not like being told he was no gentle
man, George ~. had once at least while
regent, forgotten he was one. That was
when he flung glass of wine in Colonel
Hamlyn's face, with: "Hamlyn, you are a
blackguard !" The insulted officer could
not return the compliment without commit
ting something like treason it was out of
the question to challenge the prince, while
to let the insult pass unnoticed was equally
impossible. The colonel filled his glass and
threw the contents in the face of his neigh
bor, saying His royal highness toast;
pass it on !" Hamlyn," cried the regent,
"you're capital fellow Here's your
health - And they were fast friends from
that evening.
