Engrais de Poisson.

Un grand Establishment pour
La manufacture de l'engrais pro-
venant des restants de poisson
Went d'etre construct a Bay of
Bulls, a dix-huit miles de Saint
Jean, Terreneuve.
Les machines les plus per-
fectionn6es y seront employees
ct la vapeur sera largement uti-
lisee dams cette manufacture.
Les propri6taires sont MN.
Job ct freres, de Saint-Jean, qui
|sont a la .tete dune DIES plus
grandes maisons de commerce de

Les dechets. de toutes sortes
de poisson ainsi que les poissons
1qui ne sont pas comestibles de-
vront subir un proc6d6 qui les
r6duira en- poudre ct qui donne-
ra un engrais aussi richie que lie
meilleur guano. Get engrais Sc
ra aussi tres facile q transporter
ct donnera les m6mes proprietes
fecondantes lorsqu'il sera en-
ploye dams ragriculture.
Ces poissons seront d'abord
passes q la vapeur on bouillis,
puts ills seront presses q Wis, atm

BILE l'eau ct rhuile. lis seront
alors seches par une chaleur ar
tificielle ct reduits, par ce proc6-
de, en- .une poudre qui contiendra
a peu pres IL pour cent d'azote
ct Ia pour cent de cendre dos
Zen partie phosphate de chaux).
La morue, ayant d'etre salee,
est d'abord d6capitee, ct les in
testins ct pepine dorsale, qui
torment pres de la Motto de son
poids, sont alors rejet6s.
Jusqu'a present, a part la flu
tile partie de ces deehets qui
servent q rengrais des terres des
cultivateurs qui resident pres
DIES c6tes, tout lie reste etait
laisse a la mer.
Des centaines de milliards de
tonneaux de dechets de poisson
etaient ainsi perdus. lis auraient
pu rapporter DIES ben6fces con-
siderables. De plus, lie poisson
qui nest pas comestible pour
raft etre peche en- grande guam
tite ct transform6 en- guano.
La fabrication de Get engrais
donnera une nouvelle impulsion
au progress de Horticulture il
sera, sans aucune doute, expor-
t6 en- quantities consid6rables ct
il est admis que &c commerce
sera tres r6mun6rateur. En-
France, lie guano de poisson Sc
vend huit shellings sterling par
cent liyres. ii est tres recherche
par les fermiers, tandis que l'hui-
le qui provient du poisson cru
ct qui dome 2 liz pour cent,
vaut trois shellings ct trois de-
niers le gallon.

Happening to run across the tes- timony of Mrs Dawley, who had been cured of similar sickness by using Hunts Remedy, we at once procured bottle of it, and com. menced giving it as directed. After using 1t three days she was so far improved that she could get from her bed 10 her chair without assistance Ca circumstance that had not hap pened for months). Previous to taking 1t she was troubled more or less with short breath, requiring continuous flaming 10 keep her alive. This gradually improved as we continued the use of Hunts Remedy, and on the fourth bottle she was able to set up all day. She was bloated terribly in both limbs and body upward to the lungs. The tenth day the bloating left her bowels, and now she is not swollen above the knees. Her kidneys were very bad at the time, discharges being of bloody character and emitting sicken- ing odor. l can say that the change in her case has been wonderful, and Hunts Remedy has worked |. miracle in hex.n

Reading That Ruins.
SENSATIONAL AND TRASHY LITERATURE WHICH DFMoRALIzEs THE YOUNG PEOPLE

"About half dozen of the sensational papers of this city," said a New York stationer, "have a circulation of over 800, 900 copies weekly. The circulation rises and falls like the mercury in a thermometer. When blood, murder and captured maidens fill every page the presses are kept hard at work, but if any thing like sensible matter is published, which takes place only once in the his tory of paper, the circulation goes down. The most blood-curdling, i'm probable stories are the best for the pub- fishers. The work girls are the readers that make papers pay best.
 Millions of copies of sheets of this description are sold weekly. The boys papers are trashy and sensational enough. will admit, but they are eclipsed by the journals for young women. The plots of the stories are sometimes ex- tremely offensive, the dialogue is senii- mental to an idiotic degree and the de- scription of the personal appearance of the hero and heroine often occupy half the serial. There is not a working girl in New York city who does not purchase two or three of these papers every week. Of late years the illustrated police week. lies have begun to be read by boys of a tender age. Of all evils this is the greatest. A good many newsdealers, however, refuse to sell copy to minors. !"

Notes of a Sermon.

"Ye shall receive power, after that the Holy Ghost is come upon you," (Acts, i, 8 was Dr. Halls text Sunday morn- ing. Among the notable sentences of the sermon were:
 "There are questions which it is wise for us to put of, as far as an an- swer is concerned"
 Original power belongs to God, but there are forms of power which His creatures can call into action"
 "You would all agree that the minis ter should preach the word with all boldness, but are there not some of you who think your religion is a matter be- tween your Maker and yourself, and the less you say about it the better? If you think this is a matter of divine teaching say to you. Mo-"
 "The servants of God are equal to the burdens laid upon them"
 "If you have been truly brought to discipleship you will always be hungry for more truth"
 "We Protestants agree in stigmatizing the unscriptural opus operatun1 teach ings of Romanists, but put it to you if we Protestants are not in danger of fall ing into an oous operatuma doctrine in our own line that is just as mischievous ? You say you hear sermon every Sum- day, and I say to you, what of it 2 What have you gained ?"
 "Real healthy appetite does not lead 0 man to turn away from food because food of the same kind has been served to him before. What if you have heard sermon of the same kind before?"
 "Church fellowship has been abused and counterfeited. Men have even taken the ministry as a means of making a liv- ing and getting on in the world: but is that an argument in favor of the right use of church feIlowship2"
 "I wonder if there have not been church members who have taken and have been known to take downward steps one after another, and have gone to ruin9 Who can say: My brethren never once spoke kindly word of warn ing"
 Reactions commonly go little toe far. In the reaction against various doctrines we, as Protestants, have been apt to make too little of the sacra- ments."
 "Most of you have been baptized. You would not rob fellow man. Dc you rob God of what you have solemnly vowed to render to Him from day tc day?"
 "No man can be sure that he is not in danger of morbid feeling in some direc- tion."
 ''Divine power is always ready to be put into operation if we will keep the channels ready"
 ''You may take sheet of paper and fill it with lines of ciphers, but they amount to nothing till you put the one at the beginning. Numbers in a church are idle unless the spirit of God leads | them"
 "The use of great quantities of quack medicines is proof of widespread disease or apprehension of evil"
 "Ask yourselves if you have not beer living below your privileges

Elaboration of New Guinea.

* *fIn connection with tho Waltham Watch Company, 1t may be stated that when the proprietors of The Age desired to present MT. G. E. Morrison (the explorer of New Guinea) with reliable chronometer. acting upon the advice of Mir. R. L. J, Ellcry, the Government Astronomer, two Waltham watches were, however, procured for Mir. Morrison instead. These were kept at the Melbourne Observatory for fort night, and thoroughly and carefully tested and were pronounced by MT. Ellery, at tho end of that time, to be better suited for Mir. Morrison's requirements than any chro- nometer. ."-Extraet from Melbourne Aoe
