The Transit of Venus |.

The great importance of the com ing transit of the 9th of December, in the estimate of the men in science, may be seen in the preparations now being made for it's observation. For ty expeditions to witness it are al ready projected, and the number will be largely increased by those of tho United States, Italy and Austria, which have not yet been announced. The French government will send elght expeditions to the following points, four in north latitude and four ID south latitude. In the north the stations chosen are the coast of Florida, under the charge of Col. Perner; Cuba, under M. Bouquet Ia Grye; Martinique, an island of the French Antilles, under NJ. Tisseyaud
 In the south the stations chosen are Santiago, in Chili, under M Leclerc, Santa Cruz, a river of Pata- gonna, under M. Fleurials; Rio Ne gro, the northern boundary of Pata- gonia, under NJ. Perrotsin, and Porte Desire or Chubett, also in Patagonia, under NJ. Hiatt. The members of all the expeditions are now preparing for their work at the observatory at Paris, where, by means of model Venus and model sun, they are practising on imaginary transits, in hopes of being able to observe with scientific accuracy the passage of the real Venus over the real sun in December. They will start for their destination in the month of July, and spend the intervening time after their arrival ill diligent preparation for the event
 The object of this great eXpendl- ture oftime, labor, money and braIns, is the hope that the observers may determine, with an accuracy never before attained, the earth's distance from the sun. A Janslt of Venus is not a glorious phenomenon like a total solar eclipse. It is simply the passage of a black ball over the suns s bright face. But it is visible. all over our Western world, and no hu- man eye that now looks upward to the sky will ever again behold it's recurrence. It is the last chance for trying this method of estimating the suns distance until the advent of the year 2004. Providence Jour nal

Weather Facts and PrObab1li-
 ties,

As we are passing through pe- riod of very acCentuated and trying atmospheric changes, the following ten short rules, by the use of which a person can stand beneath his own vine and fig tree, in any part of the northern hemisphere, north of lati- tude l5, and for hundreds of mics around him, form an accurate opin- ion of how the wind and weather are progressing, may be of value. They were supplied some time ago to the Farmers Club of the American In stitute by scientist of New Jersey:
 1. When the temperature falls suddenly, there is storm forming south of you.
 ?. When the temperature rises suddenly, there is 2 storm forming north of you.
 3. The wind always blows from q region of fair weather, towards a re- giou where storm is forming.
 4. Cirrus clouds always move from region where a storm is in pro gress towards region of fair weath- CT.
 ,. Cumulous clouds always move from region of fair weather towards a region where a storm is forming. 6. When cirrus clouds are moving rapidly from the north or northwest, there will be rain in less than twen- ty four hours, no matter how cold it may be.
 '. When cirrus clouds are moving rapidly from the south or southwest, there will be cold rain storm on the morrow, if it be summer; and, if It be winter, there will be snow storm.
 s. The wind always blows in q circle around a storm, and, when it blows from the north, the heaviest rain is east of you; if it blows from the south, the heaviest rain is west; if it blows from the east the heaviest rain is south; if it blows from tho west, the heaviest rain is north of you.
 9. The wind never blows unless rain or snow is falling within one thousand miles of you.
 10. Whenever . heavy white frost occurs, q storm is forming within one thousand miles north or northwest of you.

HumOrs of the Nevada Judiciary.

Yesterday afternoon young man came into Justice Carey's court room, with the rim of his hat drawn over his eyes, and remarked:
 Do you know mel"
 "l think" replied the couIt meek ly, ''that you're the chap 1 sentenced for stealing about year ago"
 That's the hairpin 1 am;," replied the other, "and there is $20 for my fine"
 But you served your term in jail, 7" said the judge, land owe no fine"
 "That's all right, old boy, but I'm about to commit an assault and bat tery, and l guess I'll settle now. You're the man l propose to lick"
 "Oh, that's it," rejoined the court, pocketing the coin; "then you can start in and we'll call it square"
 The young man advanced to the judge and let out his left. The judge ducked his head, and rising up, lifted the intruder in the eye with a right handler and sent him oyer against the wall. In moment the court was climbing all oyer the man; and in about three minutes his face was hardly recognizable. The man begged the'court to let up, which he finally did. As the fellow was about to go out, Carey went af te- him wlth:."See here, young man, l don't think the fighting you did ought to be assessed at. more than S2' 5O-here's $l750 in change, | ain't charging you anything for the lighting, but just for my time. Next time l wont charge you u cent" The rough took the change and the next train for Virginia City, Carson City Appeal.

Balance of Trade.

The question is often asked, What wllI be the result of this inversion of the balance of trade, now against the United States? We are paying out gold for European goods and as interest on bonds and stocks of the United States held in Europe. h. stead of this withdrawal of specie, if the products of the West had free access to the worlds markets, we would be paying out wheat and corn, and the current of gold would still flow steadily in this direction. Or the 400,000,00o bushels of wheat produced annually in the valleys of the Mississippi and Missouri rivers, only 10O,000,000 can be transferred to Europe. Railway rates will not suffer farmers to sell in the East, and Congress has adopted no meas ures designed to open a waterway to the sea. Jay Gould has the barg- es tied to the shore; none but little ships of 2,500 tons burden can enter the Mississippi; wheat and cotton, sugar, rice, and corn cannot go out in bulk, and each farmer in the West loses from IS to 20 cents on every bushel of wheat he produces, simply because the Congress of the United States is manipulated by rings and grand commissions, organized in the interest of railway owners and tariff mongers, who do not intend that the Mississippi shall ever compete with the railways and regulate freight rates between the East and West. The hostility of great railway own CTS to Reagan's interstate commerce bill IS not half so violent as that confessed when it is really and hon. estly proposed to make the Mlssis- sippI an arm of the sea.
 But enough of American super abundant crops will soon force their way out, paying farmers almost nothing and railways everything, to reverse the order of events and gold again will flow Tn this direction. Wheat in the West and cotton in the South will break through the bar riers set about them by railways and Congressional subordination to com missions, and in spite of untoward or negative Legislation, soon bring Europe in debt to us on each month 8 commercial transactiOn American Register.

GIrdIing Fruit Trees i'll Arkan-

A correspondent, writing to Col mans Rural World from Little Rock, expresses himself as follows in re- gard to girdling fruit trees:
 Noticing that the subject of gird- hng fruit trees in on the tapis, 1 will give my experience. Last year 1 girdled lot of my apple trees, mostly young trees, and this year they are all full of apples, some of them so full that l had to thin out considerably. simply took very coarse set old saw and sawed through the bark around the trunk of the tree at any distance from the ground most convenient, making the saw cut to the wood. Thls was done in June. The bark united in q short while, and no sprouts as reported by Mir. Holt, appeared below the girdle more than on ordinary trees not so treated.
 1 think 1t is useless and tedious labor to girdle separate limbs. Gnd also unnecessary to use a knife or other implement than a common course set hand-saw, as this is the mere expeditions and equally safe and successful mode,
 have just girdled lot of twelve year-old Nickajacks, and other shy bearers, and confidently expect them to be loaded with apples next sea son, as consequence. No one need be afraid to try this plan. At least I expect to practice It in the future whenever needed When young trees are thus brought into prema- ture bearing, one must be careful not to let the trees overbear as that would be sure death. 1 lost val uable pear tree, through greed, sev eral years ago, and then promised myself never to be guilty of the like again.

 About Sheen.

The demand for mutton for sum mer consumption in every town and village is thing to be cultivated by farmers. A flock of sheep is safe to pay 100 per cent. profit in the hands of a competent manager Every week few head of fat sheep might go to the butcher for local consump. tion during the hot weather, when beef is less saleable, and in this way the surplus of considerable flock might be worked off. But the dogs When sheep are more numerously kept than dogs, the dog question will be satisfactorily disposed off, Rural New Yorker
 Sheep nibble their skin and pull the wool because the skin itches, and the wool comes off easily because there is inflammation. The skin is red and hot in these places. The cause is disordered blood produced by dry food, and it is always worse when there IS q good deal of smut on the straw or fodder, or dust on the hay, which is generally the case af, ter dry summer. The remedy is to give a teaspoonful of cream of tar. tar and the same of sulphur in mo lasses. put on the back of the tongue with a thin piece of wood or a spoon once a day for ten days.

Islander, Defamation, and Black
 mail

The slanderer is to be abhorred, and his dupe, who being misled makes herald to his lies, is to be both pitied and despised. But the blackmailer, who in atrocity unltes the qualities of the highwayman with the full purpose of the thief and the assassin, is to be abomlna- ted. The wonder is that such things can exist, prosper and pass with i'm punity. Yet alas! such is the lamen- table fact. A suit for islander has ceased to be creditable. And even prosecution for libel is as good as obsolete. The only shield now agalnst islander and defamation IS an elevated sentiment and sound judg- ment to guard men against it's in- sidious influences.
 Pollok says
 Rumor was the messenger Of defamation, and so swift that none CouTd be the first to tell an evil tale; And was withal so infamous for lies, That he who of her sayings on his creed The fewest entered was deemed wisest man. The fool, and many who had credit, too, For wisdom, grossly swallowed all she
 said, Unsifted and although at every word, They heard her contradict herself, and saw
 Hourly they were imposed upon and
 mocked,
 Yet still they ran to hear her speak
 and stared
 And wondered much, and stood aghast, and said
 It could not be; and while they blush ed for shame
 At their own faith, and seemed to doubt,
 believed,
 And whom they met, with many sanctions, told So did experience fail to teach; so hard It was to learn this simple truth, con firmed
 At every corner by thousand proofs, That common fame. most impudently lied.
 Twas islander filled her mouth with
 lying words;
 Slander, the foulest whelp of sin.

Wintering Bees.

E. E. Nasty, in the Bee Keepers Exchange says that in wintering hls bees he puts a tray of sawdust two inches deep underneath each hive. A board bottom will get little pud- dies of water on it, and in cold weather they turn to ice. Ice in the hive prevents the bees from getting the proper benefit of the winters sunshine, and warm spells; a tray of dry sawdnst lets whatever water may accumulate sink down, keeps the bottom in beautiful order, and is q grand helpln preventing dampness. A strip of board two inches wide runs across the tray, in order that the partition between the two colo nies may have something firm to rest on at the bottom and be pushed down tight

Farming in Japan.

MT. Wm. P. Brooks, President of the Agricultural College, in Japan, and and graduate of the Massa- chusetts Agricultural College, says that the farmer in Japan, in planting
 wheat sows it in furrows foot apart,
 which are made with q hoe, the seed being covered at deph of three inches the laborers then tread it down by walking over it. Liquid manure is applied after the wheat has come up. They hoe it between the rows, and when the wheat is grown, it completely covers the field, present
 ing the appearance of field sown broadcast They pull up all weeds, and this thorough system is carried on in raising all crops. Their aIm is to produce the largest crop on a given area, They keep but very small stock of cattle, hence the ma nure they use is mostly night soil, and as they do not generally own carts, the manure is carried out upon theIr lands mostly in pails by hand. From forty to sixty bushels of wheat is grown upon an acre. All grains are planted Tn drills and not sown broadcast. He had ridden fifty miles through one continuous rice field, and not a single weed could be seen in the entire field. Fences are rare Iy seen. They raise inferior apples and pears. They also raise grapes, and persimmons.
