The London Truth, referring to an an
nouncement by the Empress of Austria that
she viii make another hunting excursion to
Ireland. says, "The empress is the only
sovereign personally known to the Irish
people. Out of the period OF forty-four
years during which the queen has
occupied the English throne she has spent
above twelve days in Ireland, in two visits,
the last one in August, 1861. Did the Irish
only understand that there was queen of
Ireland no pecr' would lie more loyal.

Scientific Notes.

Paint will not answer on walls if the pat
ern OF the paper is not prepared with sand
paper. See all the places are sound, then
procure fiat piece Of cork, fold q piece of
sand paper around it md paper every part to
make level, then give it q coat OF patent
size; when dry rub smooth again. Then
mix the paint with gold size. The principa
thing in painting, vanishing or granting is
to have sound vail to work upon and az
smooth as possible.
TO assay carbonates of silver or lead.
take the mineral or quartz, pulverize it,
put it in o crucible or common clay pine.
put in as much salt as mineral; let it come
to boil. When it cools the
silver and lead will be in the
bottom, silver the lowest. To separ-
ate the lead from the silver, put it into a
bone-dust cup and melt; the lead will alb
sorb into the cup, leaving silver and gold;
to separate the latter, boil in nitric acid and
this will leave the gold.
Grease is fatal to I'LL insect life. In
sects breathe by means of small pores on
their sides. Grease or oil that comes in
contact with the insects closes the pores
and stops the breathing. Mercurial oint-
ment kills as much by the lard in itas by
the mercury-that is, so far as tho vermin
are concerned. but not as to the animals
that ticks it off from their bodies, SO that
almost any oily or greasy application will
be destructive to insect vermin, if it is ap-
piled where it will do the most good.
All kinds Of burns, including scalds and
sunburns, are almost Immediately relieved
by the application of solution of soda to
the burnt surface. 1t must be remembered
that dry soda will not do, unless it is sur
rounded with q cloth moist enough to dis
solve it. This method of sprinkling it on
and covering it with wet cloth is often the
very best. But it is sufficient to wash the
wound repeatedly with q strong solution.
1t would be we'll to keep bottle Of it al
ways on hand, made SO strong that more or
less settles on the bottom.

Sharpsburgh was reached and a rest given
us for several hours, which some Of us &C.

there nearly year previous. While sitting
on . porch of cottage with conrade a
door tehind us wes partly opened and a
lady quietly asked us if we
did not wish for something
TO eat. Asserting, We were told to
go through the gate to the rear of the
house, so as not TO attract much attention,
which We did. The lady soon appeared
with bread, milk and butter, anda delicious
lunch it was. After disposing of it we
thanked her for her kindness and started
away. She called us back and said, in
quiet, dignjied manner: II have given free
" to you men such as l have to pive, but
assure you it is not done for any sympathy
for your case, for it is one abhor and de-
test, but because thought you were tired

served and pray it may be. without any
more battling, for have dear cnes in the
Union army fighting for its preservation"
The quiet dignity and patriotism Il the
lady made deep impression on me, one
that shall never forget. Ono evening,
while quietly trudging along Near Betty
vile, on aged negress, leaning on fence,
put the query to us:

Replying in the affirmative, she broke

Notes on Killing Weeds.

Grass md weeds Of every description
growing in gravel walks may be extermina-
ted the most expeditiously and cheaply by
the application Of common salt in liberal
Quantities. II one dose is not sufficient.
apply second: Two applications of salt
will not only kill the weeds now growing,
but will prevent their springipg up next
season. A barrel Of salt, costing but a
tri6e over dollar, will destroy more weeds
in gravel walk than q man can kill in the
course Of week. A grnvel walk entirely
free from weeds is highly ornamental as
we'll as useful, but its value and beauty are
both destroyed by the presence Of weeds
and grass. Plnntain is more effectually
eradicated by pulling it up with the hands
after heavy rain. It may also be destroy
ed by running sharp spade An inch or two
below the surface Of the ground. So de-
stroy burdocks ind mullen, it is advisable
to cut the stalks two or three inches below
the surface, and to drop handful Of salt
on the portion of the root that remains in
in the ground.

A Happy Home.
From the German.

From the German.
A pretty story about German family dis
closes the secret Of a happy home, wherein
10y aboundeth, though there are many to
feed and clothe:
A teacher once lived in Strasburp who
had hard work to support his family. His
chief Joy in life. however. was in his nine
children, though it was no light task to feed
them all.
His brain would have reeled and his
heart sunk, had he not trusted in his heav-
emily Father, when he thought Of the num-
Der Of jackets, shoes, stockings and dresses
they would need in the course of year.
and Of the quantity Of bread and potatoes
they would eat.
His house, too, was very close quarters
for the many beds and cribs, to say nsthing
of the room required for the noise and fun
which the merry nine made.
But father and mother managed very we'll.
and the house was a pattern Of neatness
and order.
One day there came q guest to the house.
As they sat at dinner the stranger, looking
at the hungry children about the table, said
compassionately: "Poor man, whata cross
veu have to beer!'
