The Weed Nuisance.

Weeds will assert their rights Which,
ever there is chance, and if not
checked will monopolize the entire
farm. Cultivation, in a general sense,
is the best exterminator. But weeds
should not be removed and thrown
away. or burnt in piles rs farmers do;
they should be made a source of profit,
or at least to pay for their grub" by
adding them to the manure-heap. Some
may say that the seed of the weeds re-
tain their vitality in the manure, and
when the manure is spread on the
earth these weeds grow and give us
world of trouble. We have heard this
objection over and over again; and many
either burn their weeds or cart them to
some waste hole for fear of this. On
the other hand, we like to see this ma
nure-heap cared for. 1t is a sign of a
strong arm and a vigorous intellect at
the head of affairs. And even at the
risk of encouraging weed-seed once in
while, we would rather preach the
doctrine of throwing everything into
this one common receptacle for all veg
the waste of good material which we so
sften see. Even when there is likely to
be much objection from weed-seeds in a
manure-heap, provided the vegetable
refuse is likely to be valuable, the seeds
may be destroyed by composing. The
warmth Of the decaying mass causes
the seeds to sprout; and if the whole
mass is turned over once or twice, so as
to give air enough to all the seeds in
time to terminate, all the objectiona-
BILE matter may be destroyed. We fear
far more from ugly roots of vile creep
ing weeds in the manure-heap than we
do from bad seeds; but even these may
be pretty badly worried by stirring
over of the mass time or two before
using. But this requires labor. and
how much labor can be made profitable
will always be question before the
saving of waste material, however val
liable in the abstract it may be.-Ger-
naantown Telegraph.

That Astonishing Prayer.

Here it is intact-the prayer that was offered
up in the New Jersey House by the Rev. John
Dewitt Miller:
"May the members Of this House not
neglect the exacting and often unpleasant
duties of the committee room to seek pub
licity in noisy championship of popular
measures on the floor of this House. May
they not ask themselves, How shall l curry
favor with the bosses I? nor How shall line
the vest of some editor and so make myself
the subject of editorial squibs dripping with
sweetnessT but may they ask themselves
continually, How shall | conduct myself so
as to win the Endorsement Of my own con-
science, the approval of my constituents, and
the favorable judgment Of Almighty God p
May these Assemblymen so act as to escape
the necessity of explaining to an inquisitive
constituency how, leaving home poor, on the
meagre salary of $500, they return RICH"

The Princess Crown of Gold.

Some of the incidents of the visit of the
Princess Louise and party to Richmond were
amusing. An Englishman, having note of
Introduction to the Marquis, was in such
haste to be presented that he unintentionally
entered the suite of rooms unannounced, and
going from room to room, stumbled upon
either the Marquis or one of his aids in the
bath tub. He FASTENED away without staying
to be presented. The party were also edited
by the anxiety displayed by the negroes to
see the Pincess. The hotel Mattresses and
walters, who were supposed to have frequently
seen the Princess Louise, were lions in colored
society, and retailed the news with every
imaginative addition to excited listeners. In
consequence the negroes now believe that the
Princess wore crown of solid gold, and one
of them has been heard in a crowded back
kitchen telling how he saw her royal highness
wearing big gold crown full of diamonds
and at the same time engaged in sewing.

The Columbia and it's tributaries
drain an area of over $4,000 miles,
which embraces the state of Oregon,
the territory of Washington, and a
large part of Idaho and Montana.
The country above described is a land
of varied and valuable resources; it
produces the great staples in immense
quantities; it contains eXhaustless
fields eff coal and iron, numerous mines
of the precious metals, and also their
necessary adjunct, quicksilver. Its
forests alone could supply cargoes to
the commercial marine for many de-
cades to come. In spite Of the many
drawbacks attending the settlement
of new country, and the lack of
means of internal transportation, our
commerce has grown rapidly in the
past, until it has reached magnitude
which has engaged the attention of
the commercial world, and attracted
large amounts of foreign capital to aid
in its growth, and to- develop our re-
sources.
