i THE HYACINTH.
The hyacinth is one of the most beauti
ful, delicate and fragrant of the bulbous
flowers, and is therefore exceedingly popu
lar. They should be planted in October
and November. Make the .soil deep, mel
low, and tolerably rich, and see that, the
water has a chance to drain off. The beds
should be narrow, so that all parts can be
reached from the alleys or walks. Set the
bulbs about six inches apart, and four deep.
Before winter sets in, cover the beds with
straw from the Manure heap, to,',help keep
out the frost This should be removed as
soon as hard frosts are over—in this lati
tude, the middle of March.
Hyacinth flowers may be cut freely with
olit injury to'the bulbs. Indeed, all flower
sfalks should be removed as soon as the
flowers begin to fade. In about five or six
weeks after flowering, and when the leaves
are becomingyellow, the bulbs May . .
be re
moved in about three weeks after 'the'flow
ers have faded. In this catie;aftei "remov:=
ing all the flower stem's,` if thia' has not
been done before, lay the' bulbs' on a dry
bed in the garden, and cover them with a
little earth. Here they.can remain until
the leaves have ripened, when they are
ready to be packed away for fall planting.
hyacinths may be flowered in pots and
glasses in the house; and - they make the
most beautiful winter flowers that can be
imagined. Nothing can be more delight
ful, either for beauty or fragrance. From
one to four bulbs may be planted in a pot,
according to its size, Cover only the lower
:calf of the bulbs with soil, press them
down Intl' they are nearly covered, then
water until the soil is moistened thoroughly,
and eet the pots in a cool, dark cellar.. The
roots will there form, with but little growth
of top. Here thdy may remain for several
weeki, and a pot or two at a time can be
takeil into a warm, light room, for flower-'
ing, a week or ten days apart, and a succes
sion of flowers obtained during most of the
winter. If flowers are desired about 'the
" holidays," plant the bulbs about the first
of November.
A NEW FOWL.
A fearful 'giant in the i3hape of a barn
yard fowl has been. introduced into Scot
land from. Central India, called the• ct Be
gum_ Gityusa," a cut of which is given in
the August number of the American Agri—
cultur*. The male is thirty inches high,
and appears like the Shanghm, except that
on the head a couple, of - minute, Ip,rns rise,
instead: of a comb,Trom a - heavy ease which
projeets some distance along the upper side
of the bill. The wattles are also larger
and fuller. The chickens of the kind
_of
fowl,-it is reported, grow to the weight of
eight- poundierat• seven -and eight Inionths
old—limbs of coarse - included. We' have
no account of the iayingproperties.
GOOD' INVtNTION,
The. ; Chicago Tribune says :—We have
just been shown.a• horseshoe which will be
very likely to. work a complete revolution
in the practice of horseshoeing. The shoe
consists of a hinged plate, with four or five
little flanges or projections extending upon
the outside of the horse's hoof,. clasping it
like so. -many little , :fingers, making a neat
and perfectly effective ; attachinisnt to the
hoof. On the bottom of this hinged plate
the sole of the shoe, ? so to speak, or the
part that comes in contact with the ground,
is fastened , by strong set "screws, whereby
the flanged plate is held flintily to the foot,
the whole making a handsome, e:asy, and
durable shoe, which can be easily put •on
and taken off, and, instead of endangering
the hoof after the manner of the old fashion
nailed shoe, is a preserver of the hoof.
WHAT IS " ONE HORSE POWER?"
The use of the term " horse power" is
very common, yet except good mechan
ics and engineers, ittecha definite' 'Meaning
to it, but regard it as. indicating loosely,
about-tile yo.wer which one horse would ex
ert. ,It isrlowever, when used in the
sense . under consideration, as definite as
possible, and means 'tke Tower requi4o. to;
ift 88,060 poun'ae avoirdupois one foot
h igh in one minute,.
A horse hitiihed; to the end of a rope
• er a pully one Todt in diameter placed over
. deep well, traveling at the rate of about
7 4 Millie per hour, or 220 feet per 'minute,
-ill draw up 150 pounds the same distance
I# e travels. The force thus exerted, is
#alled by mechanics, " horse power," it'
eing , „ an approximation to the average
" oust of continuous power , it is fair to de
and.of a strong horse. If we multiply
he weight' raised (150 pounds) by the
.umber'of feet it was moved per minute
220,) ? the product will be the number of
oundi*hich the same power would raise
only foot 'high in the same' -length of
ime, (83,000 pounds.)
The dynamometer is an instrument made
for measuring' power, particularly' that ex
erted drawing.. ;Those: usedfor testing,
the drafkof Agrionitural v imphiments are
simply very,,.strong spring balances, or
spring steelyards, graduated to indicate the
power e required to raise, any weight within
reasonable limit, at the rate of 2f miles per
hour. When we apply the dynainometer„
in ascertaining the draft of Machin* if the
index.`iiidieates 150 pounds, it is — shotiiii
that the horse is required to draw just' as
hard•as he would do, if raising 150 pounds
out of a well with a rope over a pulley one
foot in diameter, at the rate of 24 miles
per hour, and so fog other weights.
The velocity at which a team moves is to
be considered as well as the weight to be
raised, or, the load to be drawn. If the
horse travels taster than 24 miles per
while:raising 'l5O pounds out of - a. well, he
exerts more than one 'horse power. If he
walksllower than this,' he'does not exert a
force equal to one-horse power.
In ascertaining the , draught of a plow, or
reaper and mower, by driving faster than
24 miles per hour,, the dynamometer would
indicate' more. than the correct draught;
and by driving slower, the draught would
appear to, be less than it really is. In test
ing the
„ 'draught of machines a team should
or, ayirmeve at the rate of 24 miles per'
of 2'20 feerpei in
mute, Which is thci
universally accepted rate with reference to
which dynamometers are graduated, and an
easy one to which to approximate in driving
with almost any kind of team.
Many people have supposed that 300
pounds—two horse power—represented the
same force that a team would exert when
dragging 300 pounds along on the ground.
A horse can haul 600 pounds on the hard
ground with ease; but he could not draw
hard enough on the dynamometer to mark
more than 250 to 300 pounds, except foi a
few minutes. The power of man is,esti
mated at one-fifth of a horse power.—Agri
culturist.

BERRIDGE AND HIS PASTORATE,
The, funeral services of Lord Buchan
with the faithful application made of them
by the impressive oratory of Whitefield,
produced a deep seriousness at Bath, and
brought large numbers of the 'nobility to
Lady Huntingtcn's chapel. On the de
parture of Whitefield, sh . e was anxious to
follow'up the impression already made with
the powerful preaching of Venn 'and 'Ber
ridge. She wrote in urgent terms to sum
mon them to Bath. •
"My lady," wrote Berridge from Ever
ton, December 26, 1767, I had a letter
from your ladyship last Saturday, and
another from Lord Buchan. Itts letter
.re
quired an immediate answer, which I sent
on Monday, and-then went out a preaching.
I am now returned, and sit down to answer
yours. But what must. I say ? Verily you
Are a good piper, but I know not how to
dance. I love your scorpion letters dearly,
though they rake the flesh off my bones,
and I believe your eyes are better than
mine, but I cannot yet read with your
glasses. Ido know that I want quickening
every day, but I do not see that I want' a
journey to Bath. 1 have been whipped
pretty severely for fighting out of my . own
proper regiment, and for rambling outrof
the' bounds of my rambles; and while the
smart of the rod remains on my back, it
will weigh more with me than ;a thousand
arguments. All marching ,officers are, not
general officers, and every one should search
out the extent of his commission. A 9s
pel minister Nilo has a church will havo'A
diocese annexed to it, and is Only an Over
seer or hishop of that diocese; and let him,:
like faithful Grimshaw, Ibok welHo
evangelist who has no church, is a metro
rlitan or cosmopolitan, and may ramble
all the kingdom, or all the world over;, and
these are more highly honored than the
other, though' l they are not always - dilly
sensible Of the ' honor. They are nearest
to the apostolie'Character 'of any: ' '

THE CHILDREN OF ABRAHAM.
All nations are , capable of absorption,
save the Jews. No nationality is so tena
cious as theirs. The French, Germans,
Italians, Turks, and Erigligh are all assimi
latedi_ and, become organically, American
ized. a•Jewis-always Jew; retain : ,
ing his peculiar. Jewish type.,apcl counte
nance, on which. the , Creator has indelibly
written his Abraharnic descent He may
change 'his faith, but his face remains the
same in all ages. Neither creed nor climate
,cari unhebrewize a Hebrew. The' blood of.
the Messiah may wash hii` , soul from the
stains of sin, but it cannot wipe away God's
handwriting on his body. His people are
still a 'pedal* people.: Without a national
organization, they 'are a nation. Scattered
over the wide, world, each one seeming to
: be isolated, from all, the rest, the children
of Abraham 'are ; a family as distinct and
separate from other branches of, our race es
they were when Joshua -led them across the
Jordan.
In our daily iambles here We meet a
giOup of Jews. They board it 'the same
house--=a farm-house, which lias•be - en the
ren - dezvons of their people for years past.
They walk together, eat together—in short,
are a clan =forthemselves, separate from.the
" Gentiles." Whilst all the world is
talking of politics, they are talking' of
trade. This forms the staple of conver
sation. Where one bought low or sold
to advantage; how much one made on this
lot of goods, and how much'another lost, is
the burden of their discourse, wherever'one
meets them.
THE AMERICAN PRESBYTERIAN, THURSDAY, OCTOBER 19, 1865
In mingling. and speaking with these
jews,.one finds much to approve of and ad
mire. Some, are generous, tender-hearted,
possessed o'f:a keen sense of honor; but it
is alwaYs Hebre s W honor. As Shylock
asks, " Hath not a•Jew eyes? Hath not a
Jew hands, organs, dimensions, senses, of -
f e ctions , passions?—fed-with the same
food, hurt with the same weapons,'subject
to the .same diseases; healed by the , same
means,. warmed and _cooled by the 'same
summer and winter, as a Christian is ?
(Certissime Mr. Shylock. Thy brethren
and we shiver alike these cool mornings
and we, drink the medicinal diaughts from
the samecups—and; most likely, the . water'
affects both in the same way.) If yoii
prick us, do we not bleed ? If you tickle
us; do 'we- not laugh ? i lf 'you Ipoison4s; do
•we not die ?" Possibly you do. That is a
thing , that•must be tesfq.. - by actual experi

This morning we overheard a venerable
little Isaac remark, in passing, " I so train
my children, that I need not be ashamed of
them." ‘• Hebrew, thou art wiser than
many a Christian," we muttered to our
selves. In the training of their children,
the Jews certainly excel. It does one's
heart good to see how Jewish children re
vere and obey their parents, and how thor
oughly they are indoctrinated in the Law.
Once it was a source of pride and hope
to be a child of Abraham. Now it is a
mark of contempt. Why should it be ?
We are not surprised that many a pious Jew
still considers it the highest blessing of
God that be has Abraham for his father,
according to the flesh. We hold that, in
an important sense, the Jews are still a
chosen people. Their remarkable preserva
tion as a nation is not without its object.
Their history is unique. God has kept
them a separate nation, though dispersed
all the world over. He must have some
great end in view in -making them an ex
ception to the general law of national decay
and death.
The Jew is a sublimate of the American
Mammon-spirit. His business is part of
his religion. He is a personal incarnation
of trade. His person and posture, his frown
and smile, the tone of his voice and the
turn of his limbs, all proclaim the first great
law of his daily life=---a sharp bargain. Shy
lock has his own grasping; skinning, =Jew
nature to blame for Antonio's censures—
who, .
"Many a time, and oft,
In the Rialto, rated him
.A.bont his:moneys and 4isi interests."

It is designed to construct a quartz-mill of 50 stamps
capacity, which will work 50 tons of ore per, day.
The mines of the Company are now being opened and
developed under the diraction of an experienCed and

practibal -mining and mill engineers to be the most
extensive and valuable mines of 'any Company in the

It should be borne in mind that after the mills are

3fassus. HSRRTNO & Co.—Gentlemen:—Though the
destruction of the American Museum has proved a .
'serious loss to myself and the public. I am happy to
verify the old adage that " It's an ill wind 'that 14lows
nobody any good," and. consequently congratulate'
you that your well-known SAFES have again demon
strated their superior fire-proofgualitiesin an ordeal
of unusual severity. The Safe youniade for me some
time ago was in - the office of the Museum on the
second floor. back part of the building, anti in the
hottest of the fun. After twenty four hours of trial
it was found among the debris, and on opening it this
day has yielded up its contents in very good order.
Books, papers, policies of insurance, bank bills are
all in condition for immediate use, and a noble-com
mentary. on the trustworthiness of lizanniii's Fins
PROOF Bess. Yruly yo T. urs,

ANOTHER TESAL
HERRING'S FIRE-PROOF SAFES.,
The Fiery Ordeal .Passed Trinmphantly.
The. Herring Safe used in the office of our wars-
houses. destroyed by the disastrous fire on the night
of the Bth instant, was subjected to as intense heat as
probably any safe will ever be subjected in any fire—
so intense that the brass knobs and' the mountings of
the exterior of same were melted off, and the whole
surface scaled and blistered as if it had been in•st-far
nue; and yet when opened, the contents books and O
papers—were found to be entire and uninjured. '
This Safe is now on exhibition in our warehouse on,
Seventh Street, with' the books and papers still rer
maiming in -it. 'Just as it was when taken from the
ruins. Merchants, Bankers, and others interestedin
the protection of their books'and papikrs sie invited
to call and examine it.
