te ted, and have heard from no one
who has; these are points to be as
certained hereafter Our practice
has been with the few we have rip
ened so far to pick the. friit soon
after it begins to color nicely and
ripen in the house. A specimen
Tanenashi picked in this stage was
sent to Connecticut, and after being
four days in the mails arrived in
beautiful condition, without break
or bruise. '',.,'
The trees with their large, dark,
glossy foliage are quite ornamental, !,
and, so far, appear to thrive as well
as the natiye variety They aressaid
to attain height Of. more than forty
feet in Japan, where the wood is
highly priced for cabinet work. Ny
oldest and largest tree is from four
to five years old, and about seven
feet high; others two to four years
old, three to five feet; we'll branched.
Until suitable stocks can be OBJ
tanned upon which to wor k the
scions, and a speedy and reliable
mode of propagation be devised, we
must look for our principal supply
Of trees from Japan. While this is
the case. owing to high freights and
losses in transitu, the cost must re
main comparatively high. But [
predict that in a few years time
Japan pefsimmons will be as plenti
ful III this country, particularly the
southern portion Of it, as peaches,
and the price Of trees at the leading
nurseries very little, if any, higher.
We shall see.

More Truth Than Poetry.

The Boston Star, with a good deal
more correctness than has been dis
covered in a Byronicidyl talks thus:
sThe brainless, self-satisfed ci-
pher forms component part of ev-
cry well-regulated community. The
hair on his small head is always
carefully brushed. He wears his
little beard about in patches over his
expressionless face. His boots al
ways shine until he can see his own
face reflected in their mirrowy sur
face. The cravat question occupies
much Of his time, and he wastes
hours in arranging his hair in aes-
thetic style; and yet, taken from
head to foot, he could never pass for
well-dressed man in Chesterfield
ian circles. He has no manners, but
is a cheap upstart, who spends all he
can earn and beg from friend on
dress, However, he thinks his ap-
parel is taultless, and he believes,
with Polonius, that the apparel oft
proclaims the man. He never
thinks, for he cannot. He seldom
reads anything but fashy, cheap
novels. Solid reading has something
about the types that hurts his eyes,
He stands in places where young ia
dies are sure to pass. He knows
them all, but they don't seem to
know him. They turn up their
noses at him, but he sees not the ell
ovation; they make sport of him,
but he knows not their mirth. They,
nevertheless, sometimes tolerate him
when he can be useful to l},: them. He
is not . great talker,, but has been
known to remark with spasmodic
enthusiasm upon the improvement
in his personal pulchritude, produced
by the elinaination from his nerve
less lip Of a sickly shadow which he
calls his moustache. Few people
notice him, but he imagines all man
kind are his admirers. He drifts
through life without notice; while
men of brains win the enduring
! crown y

Mr.. Jas. IL. Randall, of the Au-


Mr.. Jas. Il. Randall, of the Au-
gusta Chronicle, in one of his fine
letters from Washington to hS pa
per, says of Senator Vance
D ".rMr. Vance has greatly distin-
gufshed himself in. debasing many
problems arising from discussions
under the regulation Of the tariff.
He has stirred up the whcle Repub-
lican hornets nest, and, I regret to
say, wounded several of his Demo
cratic associates, like VOORHEES, and
Mcpherson, who haYe cause to fear
theiH will of powerful manufactures.
Vanm, however, lis zealot for the
s1aearest alton to fair trade
and does not care Where his blows
fall. He knows all of the adverse
ry's weak spots and has a genuine
gladiatorial delight in shifting them.
He really believes that a high pro-
tective tariff is a robbery and a sham.
He is blind, / think, to'some of its
points. His matchless wit and irwin
chile good temper, backed by study
intellect trained t. combat, make him
a terrible. foeman and one, too, who
fights as well with the raPier Of sa"-
tire as with the battle ak of logic.
He had the best of Dawes, Harrison.
and Morrill,, who sailed forth to the
encounter but Mr.. Hawley, in a
short reply, retrieved, to some extent
the discontinue of his allies He
showed how the prosperity Of the
New England farmer was bound up
lii the factory where he sold his pro-
ducts. He affirmed that the laborer
was just participant in the profits
of the mills, the proof of which was
that out of a population Of $4,000
in Connecticut, 225,00O persons who
labored in different industries, had
eighty-four million dollars in the
savings banks: He denied that the
votes of the laborers were controlled
by anybody. They voted as thsE
pleased. This may be true of Con-
necticut, but utterly wide of the truth
in Massachusetts,, according to the
testimony of Benjamin f. Butler,
Governor of that State"

The Coldest Town on the Globe.

Jakutsk (or Yakootsk), chief town
of the province of that name in eaaz
tern Siberia, is On the left bank of:
the Lena river, 81 degrees, ! min
ute, north; longitude 149 degrees,
40 minutes, east; and distant from
St. Petersburg 5915 miles. The
ground remains frozen to the depth
of 1000 feet, except in midsummer,
when it thaws three feet at the sur
face. During ten days in August,
the thermometer marks 95 degrees,
but from November to February it
ranges from ~ to 6s degrees below
zero, and the river is solid ice for
nine months out of the twelve. The
entire industry of the place-.popu-
lation about 5,0o0-is comprised IL
candle works, and yet it is the Frin-
cipal market of eastern Siberia for
traffic with the hunting tribes of
Buriats. The former, having large
herds Of horses and cattle, bring to
market hutter, which is sent on
horseback to the port of Okhotsk.
The Buriats, also nomadic, bring
quantities of skins Of sables, foxes,
martens, hares, squirrels and the
like, and many of them are sold at
OkhOtsk.

SIurs on Women.

At recent dinner at which no
ladies were present. man, in re-
spending to the toast, "Woman,".,
dwelt almost solely on the frailty Of
the sex, claiming that the best among
them were little better than the
worst, the chief difference being in
their surroundings.
At the conclusion of his speech
gentleman present rose to bis feet,
and said: :.
II trust the gentleman, in the
application Of his remarks, refers to
his own mother and sisters, not to
ours.
The effect of this most just and
timely rebuke was overwhelming !;
the maligner of woman was covered
with confusion and shame.
This incident serves an excellent
purpose in prefacing few words on
this subject.
OF all the evils prevalent among
men, we know of none more blight
ing in its moral effects than the
tendency to speak slightingly Of the
virtue of women. Nor is there any
thing in which young men are so
thoroughly mistaken as in the low
estimate they form of the integrity
of wonnen-not of their own moth
ers and sisters, thank God, but ct
others, who, they forget, are some.
body else's mothers and sisters
Plain words should be spoken on
this point, for the evil is general
one, and deep rooted. If young
men are sometimes thrown into the
society of thoughtless or bad women
they have no more right to measure
all other women by what they see Of
these than they would have to esti,
mate the character Of honest and
respectable citizens by the develop
ments Of crime in our police courts.
Let young men remember that
their chief happiness in life depends
upon their faith IN aconaan. Nc
worldly wisdom, no misanthronio
philosophy, no generalization can
cover or weaken this Fundamental
truth. It stands like the record Of
God himself it is nothing less
than this-and should put an ever
lasting seal upon lips that arf wont
to speak slightingly of women.

The Wonders of Water.
Chicago Tribune.

Chicago Tribune.
The quantity of water used in
Chicago lastyear was "a, 150,0O0,0OO
gallons. Talking of this Commits
sioner Cregier said the water would
form a cube of 1,47S feet; a river
200 feet wide, Is feet deep, and 204
miles long fill q CANAL sixty feet
wide, six feet deep, and about LOO
miles long ; form Il canal twenty feet
wide and ten feet deep from New
York to.San Francisco, 3,O3S miles;
cover the entire city (thirty-four
square miles) to a depth of three and
one-half feet deep but the quantity
would equal only about one fourteenth
Of an inch of Lake Mfchigan-2O, 900
square miles. THE weight Of the
water equalTed 10o,a93,37s tons.
The distance travelled by the fly
wheel of the pumping engines, rep
resenting 333,1S2 miles, would gir-
die the earth thirteen and onc-half
times. The water would fill 7,O0Q,-
900 miles of four-inch pipe, 7S2, 900
miles of thirty-six inch pipe, 800
miles OF five-foot tunnel, and 16, 900
miles of seven-foot tunnel. And yet
Chicago is not temperance city.

The Sunny Side of Death.

Take the sunny side of death,
Sooner or later it must come to all,
and at the latest it is only a few
swiftly passing days distant. Kings
and potentates have no refuge from
the summons Of the dreaded mess
enger. Death is the great leveler
of man, and dust to dust is the@her-
itagse Of all. Why, then, should we
shrink from its contemplation? Why
Danish it from our thoughts with a
shudder Tt is not rational to per
mit death to shadow pur lives, mgr
is it rational to turn in terror from
what must as surely come as to.
morrow's sun. Those who are sud
denly chilled day after day by the
thoughts of death either shadow
their lives by misdeeds or reject the
philosophy that should make every
well ordered life wait serenely for
its end. The rational apprel lension
Of the upright man is, not that he
may linger too long and outlive
everything but hope. The sure re-
lief from the fear of death is faith in
Him who has taken from death its
sting and from the grave its victory.
