Shines on that tranquil bay,
Where thy storm beaten soul has Ionged to be;

Touch not this favored shore by summer blest
A home of rest.

Kissed by soft winds, and washed by gentle show

Poor heart too long in this mad world opprest,
Take now thy rest.

The existence OF another equatorial

reached Europe from time to time since
Sir Samuel Bakers first journey, is
again reported Mr.. F. Lupton, COVER
nor of the Egyptian province of Bahr.el
Ghazel, writes from his station, D,hm
Siber, on the 9th Of July, to the effect
that RafalAga, servant of his, on hi're-
turn from an expedition toward the Wele
told him that he and some OF the men,
bers of the expedition had seen great
lake in the country of the Barboa,
powerful copper-colored tribe, clothed

When the weather permits the Barboas
cross the lake 10 large open boats mado

people living on the western side (their
own country being east OF the lake) ar.

several very large islands inhabited by
people who call themselves Basango.
The Makwar is called by the Arabs
Bahr-el- Warshal, and joins the Welle,
but is much larger stream; both flow
in a west-soGthwest direction, After
crossing the Makwar Rafal marched ten

Newark Grange, P, of H., No. 8

The subject for discussion at the last
meeting was "Wheat Culture" Worthy
Master, d. j. Murphy, opened tho dis
ussion. lie would pillow carly and deep,
and roll each day what has been plowed
that day; top-dress with rich well-roled
manure, and thus save phosphates. The
best time to SOW wheafTs the first week
in October but better if after a few frosts.
One bushcl of seed per acre OH good rich
ground is enough, as one grain will pro-
duce from 1G to 80 stalks. The quality
of the seed should be ilrst-cass-as like
produces like. 1t should be drilled in IL
or inches deep; and if the season is dry
it should be narrowed and well rolled in
the Spring. Tho cost of bushel of
wheat is about $1.25 Mr. Steele follow
cd, stating he had raised 33lb. oats from
15lb. seed, and if light oats would pro-
duce heavy why not thesamo with wheat?
Mr.. HomcwoOd said he had bought 44lb,
oats and they dotorioratcd six lbs. per
bushcl; but when seed was thoroughly
clcansod, by blowing out all light oats,
they fell of only two pounds, thus show
Ing that heavy seed is better than light.
Mr. Dean did not thinks ono bushel of
seed enough. Mr.. Smith said for his land
lie wanted bushel and half, but in
other respects he agreed very well with
Mr.. Murphy. Mr.. Might would not
plow his corn ground for wheat unless he
had time to remove the corn roots, as the
wheat did not drill in well among large
Jumps oiearth. Mr.. Mcbride has made
his calculation about the cost OF wheat,
and counting his labor aud that of his
teams at "road wages" he could raise 1t
for ST. cents per bushel and not taking
account of the value of the straw at that.
To this Mr.. Kerr and others agreed. The
next meeting is December 1st at which
the discussion will be upon Peach Gull
ture. Mr.. Might and Mr.. Barber are
appointed to conduct the discussion. The
Pomona Grange meets here on Thursday,
Dec. 9, when prominent speakers will be
