that very town Of Cumberland in honor
Of the nomination Of Gen. IIarrison's
grandfather. 1t formed one of the most
novel features of the Tippecanoe CAM
paign, and was rolled from Cumberland
to Baltimore, where ii was subsequently
broken up for kindling wood. That ball,
however. was not nearly as large or
elaborate as the one which is TO be
started rolling in this parade.
The bail is a canva5-covered sphere.
AZ feet In circumference, and Is built
about an immense wheel or rim on
which it rolls. This wheel is about
inches thick, Of heavy wood, with a
quarterback iron tire. From its inside
edge SO iron hoops bend toward the
poles, and upon these the canvas cover
is stretched, the number being symbol
ical of the states Of the Union. Fifteen
gross of screws and l2S bolts were used
in the construction OF the monster, and
the whole weighs over i 900 pounds,
though it rolls easily and may be pro-
PEELED by a couple of men. The shaft
of the ball is a piece of 3-inch gas pipe,
which projects one foot at either pole.
On this are fastened two standards,
working on rollers, to prevent the ball
from topping over. Ropes can also be
rugged TO the shalt, so that enthusiastic
Republicans can pull the monster along
like fire-engine.
The ball was made by d. E. Brockett,
Of Cumberland, Md, who will accom-
pany it on much of its travels. In red
letters on one end are painted the
words: Cumberland, Allegany Co.,
Maryland" Some Of the other mot
toes are as follows:

The ball was dedicated at ratifca-
ton meeting held in Cum be rland on the
I'd inst, and after preliminary roll it
was taken apart ard shipped TO New
York. 1t is not proposed to roll II along
the country roads from one place to the
other, but to ship II by rail- and put ii to-
gether, so that it may appear in the
campaign parades all over the country.

back. On they come, separating their ink-blue masses from the tumble oi the ocean, rearing aloft their crestS,
 like living things. anxious to try their strength, and fall with a roar on it's edge as it stands up to meet them.
 You can stand within few feet of the practically bottomless sea and watch them tumble, with the water no fur ther than your knees, as the surge of their onward rush carries them across the reef. To stand so and watch them coming on, appears to one unused to the sight to court destruction; the wave is so vast; its crest. rising higher as it advances, shuts out the sea be- yond; nothing can be seen but a wall of water rolling on; it's strength is so apparent, SD irresistible. and the pause it appears to take as the top curls over seems to check your breath. The rocks and Jumps of dead coral. with which storms have strewed the reef, are high and dry; the pools of limpid waters in the holes sink down and drain away, the surface glassy, and their depths full of color and strange-shaped living things; then the roller breaks and sends surge of water hissing by. and the reef has sunk beneath the foam and bubbling water Boston Budget

LEARN TO LISTEN,
How to Keep All the Elements of 8
 Society in a Pleasant Mood.

Society in a Pleasant Mood.
 In order to keep all the elements of company sweet, the ordinary rules of politeness are of course necessary no rudeness, no offense to each others self-esteem; on the contrary, much mutual deference is required. Some times. however, there is very turbid kind of conversation, where there
 no want of common good breeding. This most frequently arises from there being too great disposition to speak, and too small disposition to listen. Too many are eager to get their ideas expressed, or to attract attention; and the consequence is, that nothing is heard but broken snatches and frag. ments of discourse, in which there is neither profit nor entertainment. No man listens to what another has to say, and then makes a relative or ad- ditionalIy illustrative remark One may be heard for minute, or half minute. but it is with manifest inn patience, and the moment he is done, or stops to draw breath, the other plunges in with what he had to say, being something quite of another strain. and referring to another sub- iect. He in his turn is interrupted by third, with the enunciation of some favorite ideas of his, equally irrela- tive; and thus conversation becomes no conversation, but contention, for permission to speak a few hurried words, which nobody cares to hear or take the trouble to answer. Mean while, the modest an1 weak sitsC ileni and ungratIfied. The want of regu-
 lation is here very manifest. It would be better to have a president who should allow every body minute in succession to speak without inter. ruplion. than thus to have freedom, and SO monstropsly to abuse it. --M r Leader, .s

INDIAN OCEAN CORAL.
Wonders of the Reef Observable When
 the Tide Is Low.
Of all the wonderful sights in this

Of all the wonderful sights in this world of wonders, there are none greater than the wonders of the reef when the tide is low The ideas about coral which people have who have never seen it in its living state arc generally erroneous. They know 1t as a beautiful white ornament under a glass shade, or in a delicate pink branches in their jewelry, and they imagine living coral is like these. Their ideas are helped along by the common misnomer of trees and branches as applied to coral. I have never seen it in the South Sea Islands. but throughout the Eastern seas the most common variety takes a lamin- atcd form, not unlike the large fungi to be met with any summers day in an English wood, growing out of the older trees. Flat, circular tables of dingy brown, grow ing one over another, with spaces under each. These attain a great size, extending for yards with out break. so that the bottom of the sea is perfectly level. This kind is much sought after by the lime burners. Another species grows in detached bosses. like thick-stemmed plants which the gardner has trimmed around the top. These clumps grow out of the sand, and stand up in dull brown against the white flooring. A third pattern is spiked like stags' horns tangled together, and is din- gier brown than the first. lis spikes collect the drifting woods. and its ap- pearance is. consequently, untidy. There are scores of varieties of corals and madrepores, but the three men, toned are those which principally make up the mass which is ever grow ing under the still water inside the reef
 At Maheburg the reefs distant seven miles from the shore, and the whole of this great lagoon is in process of being filled up by coral. There are one or two holes left capriciously, and chan mel which the river has cut to the reef, which it pierces, is what is locally called ''pass," Everywhere else the bottom is only few feet under water and is always slowly rising. The va rious corals. the patches of silver sand, the deep. winding channel, lend each tint to the water-sapphire blue where it is deepest sea green with emcrel d fiecks, or cerulean blue shot with opaline tints, in the shadows. The reef is a solid wall, shelving toward the shore absolutely perpendicula toward the ocean. and varies in width from twen- ty to one hundred yards. Against the outer face the rollers rage imcessantly. Swell follows swell, smoothly and reg ularly. There is no hurry, for there l is 10 shelving bottom to keep them

PRESERVING MANURE.
How to Take Care of FertiIizing Materials
 During the Cold Season.
Winter is the season 4

Winter is the season for making barn-yard manure. Its value depends much on the kind of feed eaten by the animals. Cattle given, as many are, little besides straw and corn-fodder in the field, make manure of compara- lively low value. Animals fed grain rich in nitrogen. phosphorus, potash, etc, such as bran, oil-meei, oats and similar foods, produce manure of high value. Poultry, hogs and horses make more valuable manure, as rule, than cattle, because their rations are richer in those elements most valued for fertilizing purposes. With superior stock, better feeding and care there must come improved methods of saving manure. The w Western method of feeding on a side hill, near a stream, where the summer rains can clean off the lot for the next winters feeding, must be changed so that every thing can be saved until sum- mer or taken to the fields as fast as made. Keeping it in piles two to four feet deep with level top is the best way to preserve it, unless it be in eel lars. The object is to keep enough moisture in the mass to prevent its fire fanging." Rains and melting snows usually supply the moisture, but it is often advisable to be able to add more water when the pile be. comes too warm. A wheel barrow I,, l. is very convenient for removing ma nure from the stalls to a pile in the yard. or for collecting that scattered over the feed yard.
 The arrangement of barns, sheds and yards has much to do with the economical han ding of manure. Where practicable it pays to have barns built so the manure from all classes of animals can be dumped together in the manure wagon to be hauled to the field as load accumulates, or collects in common pile where it can ferment together. Into this pile all the waste hay, straw, or other fodder should be thrown. Small yards are preferable to large ones where ma- nure is valued highly, as it is much less scattered and more easily collected when the snow and ice are thawing out in spring. If some spoiled straw or other rough material is scattered over the yard in the fall and winter it aids greatly in taking the manure up just as the thawing has reached :he ground III March or April, and before it has been mixed with mud by the tramping of animals. More manure can be saved from cat tie where they are fed in stalls or under sheds. Dahorning adds to the value of the animal manure crop be- cause cattle can be kept in smaller space. and the manure is less wasted by it's being spread oyer. a.large spr-:. face. 4 Praifte Fdfner.
