Castor Oh Plant as a FIy-DesurOyer

We have long been accustomed (says
a correspondent of Land and Water) to
look upon the castor oil plant as an orna.
ment for ou- apartments; but l recently
came across an article in La Nature,
wherein M. Raffard, member of the
Horticultural Society at Limoges, stated
that a castor-oil plant, raised in q pot,
placed in room infested by flies, caused
them to disappear as though by magic.
On seeking to ascertain the cause, a
large quantity of dead flies were found
scattered around, whilst several others
were stuck to the underpart of the
leaves. 1t appears that the leaves of
the castor-oil plant exude an oil which
is poisonous to all the insect tribe. 1t
is not without interest to have it proved
that the castor-oil plant, which is so
can resist the air of cafe
or other heated room where the tenn
is 80 variable. AS this plant
grows very large, and is cultivated in
almost all gardens, would it not be
worth while to try decoction of these
leaves to destroy the blight and other
Insects which iDjure our plants and
fruit-trees?

A VISIO NOF LIFE.

The flowers all fal'n, and scanty fruit In

Sweet ripe as yet, or set for future crop,
And at the root the hidden worm know
Mining to layit low.

When hops was green ana high,
Dreamt It's large leafy head would touch the

How poor by that vast visionary tree.

Not rooted in pure truth,

Youth,
Saying "Look here, for all thy torqe and glow,
Thou oan'st no further CO."
Yet though the leaves may fall,
The life sap is not shrunk,
But gathers strength deep In the knotted
trunk,
And, losing part, is more than having all;
Condensed within itself TO meet the street
OF age with cheerfulness.
And for the dreams Of youth
Come large aims, that bear
Elsewhere their irult, their crown expect

In amaranth meadows of immortal truth
Where the Nun sets not on all our nigh below

Days come and days go by.

Wafer Works.


The Water Company are actively at work
repairing the damages occasioned by the re-
cent accident to their reservoir They have
employed John f. Anderson, Esq, civil engin-
Ger, under whose immediate supervision tho
work will be done. The company ale IN cor
respondence with one of the most eminent hy-
draulic engineers in Massachusetts,, who VIII
be associated with Mr.. Anderson, and advise
not only as to the best method of repairing the
present break, but as to the safety Of the entire
structure, and the company will carry out any
and all suggestions that they may determine as
best to be adopted to make the structure safe
beyond question. The investigation which the
company has made as to the cause Of the acei-
dent, leaves no room for doubt that their first
impressions are correct-that the break occur
red in the parapet wall about two feet below
the coping, and about the line of the top OF
the clay puddle behind the slope wall, and d.
rectly under the flight Of stone steps leading
from the gate house to the top of the reservoir.
These steps were supported at the ends by
brick wall, resting on the embankment, and
extending from the gate house to the parapet
wall. The frost in winter had lifted these
walls from time to time, and the mortar in the
parapet wall had been drawn out by adhesion
to the brick work, until the water was able to
force its way through the wall into the en-
bankment. and soon cut its way down to the
retaining wall, on the street line, which sue
cessfally resisted the flow OF water, and stop
mad further disaster.

saccarapps.


The beautiful custom Of setting apart spe-
cial Sunday in June of each year as Children
Day has been enthusiastically adopted by the
Methodist people of our village, and last Sab
bath was its annual occurrence. The chancel
and altar of the church were radiant With pyr-
amids, pillows, brackets, urns and vases of
flowers Of every hue and variety, and around
the audience room at nearly every available
space were hung cages Of birds that, during
the exercises of the afternoon, msde the air
vocal with their singing. Rev. Mr.. LeLacheur
delivered an interesting sermon = subject,
Christ in Nature-to very large audience.
In the evening the Sabbath school gave a
very pleasing and entertaining concert, and, as
is always the case, attracted an audience that
filled the church to repetion.

Freeport.

The people of Freeport on the evening OF
June 9th were delighted with the concert given
by the Bowdoin orchestra assisted by Prof
Chas. Grimmer and the Bowdoin Quartette
The present orchestra far surpasses anything
of the kind in former years The audience
heartily Showed its enjoyment and apprecia-
ton by its quiet attention during the per-
Torrance of the pieces and lavish applause
afterward. While excellence was the rule in
each part our thanks are especially due for the
overture "Golden Fleece" Sara, Weighed, by
the Quartette, Mr.. Bartons humorous song
and Mr.. Crosby's baritone solo. Rarely y the
privilege given of listening to such music as
was furnished in the violin duet by Prof.
Grimmer and Mr.. Butler. To us it seemed
perfect. Only commendation was heard on all
sides by the audience and a general deslre that
we may hear it again Such efforts as the boys
are making deserve the hearty support OF the
lovers of fine music ..
