York, in the Boston Monday lecture
course. denounciug total abstinence,
and in defense of moderate drinking,
is a plea in the interest of the liquor
traffic such as any paid attorney of
the Beer or National Liquor-SelIcrs'
Association might we'll be proud Of,
but to which no christian ordinance
Sic should listen without manifest
displcasurc.'
One man writes me that when next
he has occasion to bury II drunkard he
shall say: This is the work of ram
and Crosby On the other hand, /
have had uiany letters from ciereyueh
all over the country, thanking me for
what have said, and explaining that
they have long agreed with me, but
dared not say SO. Within the last
wccA the Rev. DR.. Ormlston and the
Rev. DR.. Taylor have said that they
would be glad to come to my support
and acknowledge their sympathy with
my views if | needed such support.
Iou may say that my abusive cor

There is one book called IL Temper

made to read like tectotal pleas. For

it might just rs we'll bc made To refer

that since my lecture, through the ef-
forts of the Rev. DR.. Cuylcr, of Brook

not been in vain If | have accom-
plished this much.
All this stupid Juggling with words

Cranberry Culture.

There is probably no use to which
poor, wet land can be put that Will
bring n better return than growing
cranherrics. In this Territory there
are thousands of acres of such lands,
on many of which these wild berries
now grow, and from which in years
past large quantities have been gath
cred hy the Indians. These lands are
scattered all over the Puget Sound
country. and are generally composed
of a peat nature, unfit for anything
else. When once reclaimed to crops
or grass, If left for II few years, they
soon relapse to Il wild state. The only
crop that can he successfully grown l.
cranberrieS. But these, like the land,
cannot bear too much cultivation. y
few years ago the growing of these
berries became mania IN some OF the
eastern states, and immense sums OF
money were expended in dltching,
erecting dams, .and preparing the
land. Large crops were gathered in
some localities, but the returns did
not pay the outlay and costs of repairs
of dams, machinery and land, and
n few new ventures are now projected.
The cranberry, like the Indian, seems
unable To stand too much civilization.
II is found that by simply clearing of
the ground, without tillage, and put
ting in the plants in the rudest man
ncr, that they thrive best. Water
kept upon the ground until late IN the
spring keeps the plants from growing
too fast aud getting injured by frost.
II more care than this is taken, by
high cultivation and preparation, the
plants to u greater or less extent die
out. They must be allowed TO grow
as natural as possible. Many of our
farmers could by little effort raise
many bushels Of these berries each
year; aud rs they always bringa good
price, they would he quite revenue.
Eastern plants which have been ac-
climated are the best. rhe berries are
larger than the natives and the plants
are more prolific.

The extraordinary and wonderful
developments that have been made
from time to time since the art of pho
Biography was first discovered, has
again been supplemented by II new
ana important discovery of II process
known as instantaneous Photo-
graphy,' which is attracting much
attention from eminent painters and
sculptor~. This process has been
adopted by two or three of the leading
phntowrapher> of New York. 1t is
claimed that the discovery is not new
bat has been used for many years, hut
only for the purpose of taking pictures
of moving objects or animals, such as
race horses in full trot etc. But it
has never been employed in the ord-
nary processes of the studio. Lately,
however, some wonderful pictures of
men and auimalS in motion, which
make painters work easy, have been
taken. The process appears to con-
Sist partly of the use of ilrrcnt ma
tcriul- for the plates, and covered with
gelatine, which Is SO exceedingly sem
sative that II new method of opening
and closing the apcrature of the cam
era had to he devised, because it was
found that the hand of the operator
WAS too slow, and now pneumatic
Rubber bulb is used to throw up and
bring down again disc of black veil
vet, which is placed over the lens of
the camera. Attached to this bulb Is
II long tube, and the operator can
walk about the room, and when the
sitter least expects il, II good picture
is taken III n mcrcfraction of II second.
II is now no trouble to have the most
restless ard rolicking chi!d's photo
graph taken, as it is not even neces-
sary for them TO keep still, and il is
said that children ut play make most
capital pictures, and that people talk
ing, laughing and yawning, can be
taken to the very life. In word,
this new process does away with that
stilfand unnatural expression which
most people put on when in front OF n
camera, and these new pictures look
as If they could talk. 1t looks now as
if the work OF the portrait painter was
indeed utterly superseded.
