From the New York Commercial Advertiser
The judges of the supreme court are
thought to be among the sleekest,
most cOntented, most urbane and
most esteemed citizens Washington.
Their places arefor life, and they receive
$4,000, having the privilege OF
retiring at 70 with a continuation Of
the same salary. This freedom from
any uncertainty about the future and
removal from any temptation to dab
BILE IN politics doubtless have much to
do with their amiableness and sereni-
ty. Judge Bradley is %; Judge Miller
is 20; Chief-JustiCe Waite and Judge
Field will be 20 in November, so that
President Cleveland will have it in his
power to appoint their successors,
provided they retire. This fact causes
the supreme court to be q source OF
unusual interest Just now to many
lawyers all over the land. The judges
enjoy excellent health-they average
200 pounds each, Bradley being the
only thin man among them-and have,
as a whole, been remarkable for lon
gevity. There have been but forty
three occupants in all of the supreme
bench, and but seven supreme justices.
The government has already paid
them more than 81 200, coo in sala-
ries, one-third Of the entire number
having served beyond thirty years.
For ease, comfort and dignity, no
political position In the republic
equals that OF a Judge OF the supreme

ground to the depth OF about nine
inches, and six bullocks are required
to draw il. Only twenty pounds lone
third OF busheD OF wheat per acre
are sown, which is about fifth of the
quantity commonly sown in England.
The produce is usually about $50
pounds per acre, or seven and one-half
bushels. The crop takes three and
one-haIf to four months to mature,
and it is usually cut with sickle, but
occasionally pulled up by the roots,
after which the grain is trodden by
bullocks, after the fashion Illustrated
by a model in the exhibition. This
primitive method OF thrashing IS a
serious drawback to Indian wheat,
which contains a great deal of dirt in
consequence. 1t is strange that some
OF the cheap hand-thrashing machines
manufactured in England, chiefly for
foreign use, have not come into vogue
in India.

A Sea LIONS Escane.

from Jle RllldQtIplld Press.
Two sea lions arrived at the 200"
on Monday, and started in to make
things lively yesterday morning. The
pond in which they were put is Just
opposite the building under the charge
of Keeper Murray, and when that gen-
tleman went to work IN the morning
he saw big, black thing making awk-
ward hops and Jumps across the grass
down to the lake. 1t was one OF the
new sea lions. Keeper Murray seized a
broom, and, sounding an alarm, he
ran down the walk after the truant
animal. He was soon reinforced by
Headkeeper Byrne and four grey
suited keepers with brooms and nets,
and they all startedin pursuit. When
the seal reached the lake it espied the
little ship TuscarOra lying at anchor
in the middle of the water, and, being
mindful Of the vessel which sailed into
the San Francisco Bay and captured
him not many months ago, it changed
its mind and started for the sparkling
waters of the SchuylkiIl. By a skillful
movement Capt. Byrne managed to
head off the animal, and it stood at
bay and Keeper Murray advanced
with a net.
Capt. Byrne gave the order to re
treat as the animal made Jump with
a vicious yell. At last the brave cap
tain ordered the animals head to be
pointed for home, aud he was guided
with brooms and showed by che M
until he was safely Gagged. Men were
Immediately set to work to fix up the
pen so as to prevent any further wan
derinos.

Poor Tools in India.

The uses Of the primitive agricult-
uraI implements shown in the Indian
department OF the colonial and Indian
exhibition, at Liverpool, are very
fully described in an interesting &C

The seed Is sown in November with
the use OF a deeply-penetratingd drilling
machine, known as the titan, which
has three pegs shod with iron and a
hollow bamboo attached to each.
The three bamboos converge to a

The Proper Weight of Man.

Prof. Huxley asserts that the proper
weight of man is 154 pounds, made up
as follows: Muscles and their appur-
tenances, So pounds; skeleton, 24
pounds; skin 1O5 pounds; fat, IS
pounds; brain, 3 pounds; thoracic
viscera, 3l2pounds; observation-disclosures,
IL pounds; blood which would drain
from the body, 7 pounds. The heart
OF such q man should beat : ) times a
minute, and he should breath Is times
q minute. In twenty-four hours he
would vitiate 1,75O cubic feet of pure
air to the extent OF l percent. Aman,
therefore, OF weight mentioned should
have 500 cubic feet OF well ventilated
space. He would throw off by the
skin Is ounces OF water, 300 grains OF
solid matter, and 400 grains OF car
bonic acid every twenty-four hours;
and his total loss during that period
would be SIX pounds OF water and q
little more than two pounds of other
matter.

Artificial N1AnureR.

There are some crops winch seem to
grow quite as well, or even better, up
on artificial manures than upon barn
yard manure, and when those crops
are such as are to be put in at this
season, when time is OF the greatest
Importance, it is well to use the feItil-
izer and save thestablemanure to put
on when there is more time to handle
it, or upon such crops as do not do as
well upon the fertilizer. One of these
places is upon the cabbage and Cauli-
flower crops. They will usually do
better upon old land which has been
well manured and cultivated for one
or two seasons. Then use the phos-
phate in the hill before setting the
plant, and a little more around it at
hoeing time, and the head will be much
heavier and more solid than if grown
upon dressing OF stable manure. II
land is we'll MANFRED for early peas,
lettuce or spinach, these crops can be
taken off early enough to set cabbages
or tomatoes, and the second crop will
feed upon the manure which was not
appropriated by the first one, and

previous crop had not been grown
there.-AmeriCan CUltiVatOr.

sweetly grow.
Corn in Drills.


Corn sown in drills any time tins
month may easily attain a size and
maturity to make good ensilage, to
cure for dried fodder or to feed green
if pastures should fail in the fall.
Some of the best crops have been
grown upon old meadows that were so
far worn out as to produce only light
crops of daisies or June grass. Cut
this crop early and turn the ground
over at once, not blowing too deep.
Then SOW corn in drills about 81 feet
apart, and using from q bushel and q
half to a bushel OF seed to the acre.
AS a saving of time is important, do
not stop to draw out any manure
from the barnyard or sheds upon the
field, but use from 400 to 600 pounds
of fertilizer to the acre, and save the
manure, if you have it, for seeding
down land this fall, orfor fall top-dress-
ing. 1t is better that the rows should
run north and south, that the noon
day sun may shine between them up
on the stalks Of fodder, which, like
fruit, will attain its greatest nutritive
value when well exposed to the SUMS
rays. Upon such land it will require
but little hand labor to keep the corn
field free from weeds, if the horse hoe
is put between the rows about once a
week.

At one Of the receptions OF 8 newly

late Mrs. Pendleton discovered a young
staff officer whose shoulder-straps,
made by country tailor, had been
placed lengthwise on his shoulders, in
stead OF crosswise. His novel appear
ance was exciting ridicule and laugh

the young man had Just been intro
duced, took him by the arm and pro-
posed a promenade. With great tact
she Withdrew him from the throng
and then told him quietly OF his oddity

and IN twenty minutes was back again
