These are the amounts collected Tor
the fiscal year ending June 30, 1880, and
the corresponding sums for the last iis-
cal year will be somewhat larger. OF
these taxes for 1880 more than One-half,
or $4,000 900, it will be seen, were col
lected directly or indirectly from the
business OF banking.
The tax on deposits is comparatively
large-S2, 347 ,56S-but not as large as on
deposits in savings banks. There will
be a very powerful influence to reduce
these items, as well as the tax on
checks, which latter, business circles are
generally agreed, is little out OF date.
When this banking interest, together
with the whisky, tobacco, patent medi-
cine, and interests ID omne genus, move
upon Congress we may expect TO see
one of the livelest scutlles OF the year,
and it will be wonderful ii something
don't give way.

Pink Water.LilieS.

Pink water. lilies are one of the
specialties of Boston culture, and only
occasional blossoms have found their
way outside, owing to the price asked
by the one florist having the sale Of
them and to the difficulty in getting
them to blossom when picked long
enough to admit of their being sent to
any distance. So little were they
known that out of the New England
States the existence of the variety was
questioned. This year Newport bellies
have made them fashionable, and some
little interest is taken in their history.
In all patches of the water-ily they
are to be found more or less tinged or
stained with pink, but nowhere have
they been found entirely of the color
and reproducing the same year after
year excepting in a pond near Centre
vile. village of Barnstable. The first
were discovered there less than twenty
years ago. The find was for a long time
kept secret, and with such care that
every bud was picked when just ready
to open. Many roots were taken by
the same parties, and all the blossoms,
whether cultivated or wild, found
ready sale in Boston at good prices.
About three years ago few roots
were offered for sale, and found ready
purchasers at $40 each. When the
original locality of the plant was made
public the search for the root was so
persistent and unsparing that not only
they, but the white lilies, disappeared
from the pond. The habits of the pink
lily are similar to the white, from which
it varies only in color, greater in in
tensity of odor, in being larger size,
and remaining longer in blossom. Gray
says of the water-lily (Nynphga
odorata): "Flower white, fragrant, etc:

Grubs in the NOstrils Of Sheen.

Grubs are occasioned by species of
gadHy which deposits her ova in the
nostrils of sheep. After q short time
these ova bring forth parasites in the
larval state. These last-named migrate
within the interior of the nostrils, pro-
ducing great irritation in tho parts and
causing the sheep much pain and an
nOyance. When the larvae are capable
of exercising an independent existence
in the outer world they then undergo
the same evolution obtainable in the
case of the bot, grub parasite, namelyi
After leaving their natural repository
in the nostrils and the last-named bot
larvae in the stomach and intestinal
canal they burrow into the earth inme.
diately after their ejectment, and final
ly become metamorphosed into the
gadhy and ready to make mischief
among stock, like their ancestors from
whom they descended. The gadfiy is
rather particular in the selection of her
subjects. The weakest and most un-
promising of the flock are generally the
victims, hence close attention should
be observed by the husbandman having
charge of the flock as to the require
ments necessary to keep it in good con-
dition. This care and attention may to
a certain extent act as a preventive. l
have known farmers to obviate an at
tack of the gadhy by smearing the
noses of their sheep with common pine
tar. In other instances farmers pillow q
strip of land on one side of the pasture
field in which the sheep are turned.
and upon the appearance of the gadty
among the flock the animals will run
for the plowed ground and thrust their
noses in the freshly-turned earth. Thus
for the time being they battle the gadiiy
in her attempts to deposit her ova in
the nostrils. / do not think it advisable
to employ either medicinal or mechan-
ical means for the purpose of dislodging
the ova parasites. I consider either APP
plication, when adopted rs remedy,
far worse than the disease. Nature has
made ample provision for all her SUBJ
jects, and when the ova that have been
deposited in the nostrils, their natural
breeding ground, have arrived at ma
turity the sheep themselves, without
any required aid from outside, will dis
lodge the intruders by means of snort
ing, sneezing and coughing.-M. Y

How Scarlet Fever is Carried.

A Miss Avery, daughter of Frank
Gallup, of Poquonnoc, died at Cincin-
natl with scarlet fever of the most
malignant type. A trunk containing
her wearing apparel was sent home and
the clothing distributed among rela-
tives. Some of the dresses were al
tered by dressmaker of the village,
and one Of her customers contracted
the disease by visiting the house on
business, and among the first victims of
the fever were members of the Gallup
family. The people, like those of most
small communities, are social and
friendly, and funerals have been at.
tended by neighbors and friends, and
articles of clothing loaned and bor-
rowed, thus further disseminating the
contagion. One afflicted mother, wild
with grief at the loss of children, has
taken the remainder of her family to visit
friends at Essex, Conn.,, not thinking of
the danger to which she exposed those
who are willing to receive her. Should
the scarlet fever become epidemic along
the banks of the Connecticut, will the
experts trace it to the oyster brush in
that riverp- Hartford C0Mrant.

Electrical Farming.

In the widest sPeculations INDUCED
in about the future applications of cleo
tricity as a motor in driving the wheels
of the Industrial world, no one has VEN
tured to predict that the subtle agent
would ever be made to perform the
slow and unsystematic drudgery of
farming-the blowing, planting. reap
ing and hauling that make up so large
a share of the husbandman's life. And
yet il seems that agriculture may be-
come one of the very first beneficiaries
of electrical application. An electrical
pillow has been actually invented, and
is one of the curiosities in the exhibi-
ton in Paris. 1t consists of two cleo
trical machines which are placed on op-
posite sides of the field, drawing q set
Of shares back and forth till the whole
area is plowed. 1t is said to perform
the work of eighteen horses. If this
method of blowing should ever come
into general use, our farmers will need
to be educated up to the standard Of
Harvard professors Every Granger
will have to be an electrician to know
how to ''run'' his machine without re-
ceiving its charges in his own body. OF
course it blowing can be done by cleo
tricity, other kinds Of farm work may
be also, and it calls for only moder-
ate exercise of the Imagination to see
the farmer of the future drawing forth
his machine, rubbing it down with
emery and oil, and setting 1t to digging
his potatoes. chopping his wood and
Smelling his corn, while his wife uses q
more delicate apparatus to milk the
COWS, churn the butter and do the sew
ing for the family Farming is being
rapidly revolutionized already by the
use of machinery, and if husbandu,an
of the last century who reaped his grain
with a sickle and trod it out with horses,
or beat 1t out with fail, could rise
from his grave and make a visit to a
modern wheatfeld, he would be fright
ened back into his shroud by the sight
of black little steam engine and q
gigantic structure called q separator
engaged in threshing the grain from the
straw Of fifty-acre field. But if steam
farming is to be superseded by cleo
trical farming, and the farm power
drawn, not from the muscles of horses,
oxen and mules. but from that strange
magnet called the earth, then, indeed,
will agriculture have become scientific
and robbed of all that sweet simplicity
and romance that have inspired poets
of nature from the days of Virgil. So

Prayor.Whoels.

These wheels are believed to have
been in use among the Buddhists for at
least fourteen centuries, and originated
in the idea of its being an act Of merit
to be continually reciting portions of
the writings of Buddha. For the bene-
fit Of the unlearned, it came to be ac-
counted sufficient to turn over the
rolled manuscripts containing the
precious precepts. This simple substi-
tute was found to save so much trouble
that the custom rapidly spread, and the
action was further simplified by the in
vention of wheels, known as tchu-chor-
great egg-shaped barrels full of pray
ers, with cord attached to the base of
the barrel, which, on being pulled, set
the cylinder twirling. These are set up
in all public places in Thibet, so that
the poor, who cannot afford little
pocket-wheels of devotion, may not
lose their chance of thus heaping up
merit. They stand at the doors of the
principal dwelling houses, so that every
man entering may give them a spin for
the good of the house; while in the
monasteries there are many rows of
small cylinders, SO arranged that the
priest, or any passer-by, can set them
all twirling at once by just drawing his
hand along as he passes. Sometimes
the cylinders are so placed as to be
turned by wind or water power. The
former are provided with wings on the
windmill principle, while the latter are
placed over streams, SO that the running
water shall turn them ceaselessly for
the good of the village. A wooden bar
passed through the cy Under is fastened
to horizontal wheel, having the cogs
turned diagonally to the water, just as
in the curious little corn-mills still in
use in remote corners or Scotland.
These wheels rotate with the action of
the water and so turn the cylinder,
which must invariably stand upright.
Several of these are placed abreast
across the stream, and a rough wooden
shed is built over them to represent q
temple.
At the Lama temple at Darjeeling,
the wind is made use of in offering
ceaseless prayers for the dead. Long,
narrow flags inscribed with the same
sacred formula are fastened to tall
poles, from twenty to forty feet high,
the flags not exceeding four feet in
width. As these tlutter in the breeze,
they are supposed to. be offering cease
less alteration on behalf of the dead
whose names they bear. Within the
temple stands large wheel, similar to
those of the Northern Himalayas, and
the priests carry similar small hand
wheels.-Scribase7's Monthly.

ofAgue and Fever, or Chills and Fever, wheth-
er Of short or long standing. He refers to the
entire Western and Southern country to bear
him testimony to the truth Of the assertion
that in no case whatever will it fail to cure II
the directions are strictly followed and carried
out. In great many cases single dose has
been sufficient for . cure, and whole families
have been cured by single bottle, with . per-
feet restoration Of the general health. It IL,
however, prudent, and in every case more cor.
tain to cure, If its use il continued in smaller
doses for week or two after the disease has
been checked, more especially in difficult and

this method, by showing how to restore your
Stock to first-class condition, is the plan
herewith presented. The signal benefit Of
the Great German Remedy to mankind very
reasonably induced its application to the
sufferings and ailments of the dumb crea-
ton, beginning with the Horse. People who
tried it were more than surprised by its re-
suits, as attested in the speedy and perma-

announced their experience by word Of
mouth and by the public press, until to-day
