One of the most remarkable, is the power to absorb putrescent manures, and to hold the fertilizing essence till it is wanted for the crops, through every vicissitude of 41 ° seasons, and through indefinite per; , d B of time. There it is locked up; arenothing at common temperatures but the energy of a growing plant can unlock it.' Lime has, therefore, been styled the be sis of all good husbandu. it stores up the manure that is not ithnediately wanted for future use—a kiwi of save-all. When the supplies from tl:e barnyard are spread and plowed into s soil that is nearly des titute of lime, the growing crop catches a part of its virtue; but a very large part escapes, and very little will be left for the benefit of those that succeed. I had been used to such soils until I removed to my present farm, and was agreeably surprised to see how much more durable were the effects of stable manure. My fields were limed by the deluge. Unwholesome va pors and villainous smells are also absorbed by lime; and some places, once remarkable for insalubrity, have been changed in their character by liming or marling the fields around them. By an application of lime, nuisances are converted into manures. A striking illustration of this principle is contained in the following account from the Essay on Calcareous Manures, by J. J. Thomas, who writes A carcass of a cow, killed by accident late in the spring, was laid on the ground, and covered by about twenty-five bushels of broken shells, with forty-five bushels of earth, chiefly silicious. After the rains had settled the heap, it was only six inches thick over the highest part of the carcass. The process of putrefaction was so slow, that several weeks passed before it was over; nor was it ever so violent as to throw off any efflu via that the calcareous earth did not inter cept in its escape, so that no offensive smell was ever perceived. In October, the whole heap was carried out and applied to one-sixth of an acre of wheat; and the effect produced far exceeded that of the calcareous manure alone, which was applied at the same time on the surrounding land." The same valuable work contains a caution to the farmer which may save him from a dangerous error. "He is not to suppose that calcareous earth can enrich a soil by direct means. It destroys the worst foe of productiveness, [acidity,] and uses to the greatest advantage the fertilizing powers of other manures; but of itself it gives no fertility to soils, nor furnishes the least food to growing plants." In other words, it is the strong box for treasure, but not the treasure Itself. Lime' also possesses the property of making sandy soils closer and firmer, and clayey soils lighter. It is a mean between these extremes. CHEESE AS FOOD. Cheese, we think, in this country, is rather consumed as an appetizer than as a substantial article of food. But if it can be shown that, as an article of food, at pre sent prices, it is as cheap, or cheaper, than any other animal food, it may assume a dif ferent position upon the table. Compare it with butter. Butter costs now, upon the average, twine as much as cheese ; but good cheese consists of one-half butter. Supposed we substitute cheese - for butter upon the table; if we consume twice as much of the former, we get our allowance of the latter, and a large proportion of the most useful flesh-and-brain-producing food . to boot, and all for the same money. We think the idea is worth the favorable con sideration of every tea-table in the land. Compare it with butchers' meat. A pound of cheese costs about the same as a pound of ham, and say one-fourth more than a pound of average beef'. Let us call in chemistry to aid us in estimating their re lative value. New cheese a few weeks old consisted of —water, 40.58 parts in 100; casein, 28.25; butter, 27.44 ; ash, 8.73; total, 100,000. Beef consists of—lean meat, 85 parts in 100 ; fat, 5 ; bone, 10; total 100. And the lean meat of—water, 77 parts in 100; soluble matter, 5 to 7 ; fibre, with cellular tissue, vessels and nerves, 15 to 18. The soluble matter, fibres, &c., are equivalent to the casein in the cheese; probably no richer, if as rich, in the flesh-and-brain producing power. To use the modern lan gunge of science, no richer in aniinal force. Taking into account the greater amount of water, the great loss of bone, and the greater waste generally, there is not a doubt but that cheese, at the same price, could be advantageously substituted for meat upon the table, both on the score of economy and palatability. A comparison of the two is subjoined New Cheese. Butchers' Meat percent. per cent. Bone, - - - 10 Water, . - - 40.58 65 Blood-form'g principle, 28.25 20 Fat, - - - - 27.44 5 Ash, - - - - 3.73 It would be easy to show that at even a greater difference than exists in price, cheese is by far the cheapest food. The advantage which meats possess of being consumed with the cheaper vegetable food which goes so largely into consumption, will, of course, effect to a great extent this advantage. Still this is a subject worth thinking of by every householder in the land. RE-CAPTURE OE HONEY BY BEES. A few days ago Mrs. Dyer, of Charmin ster, having directed the withdrawal of a drawer of honey, weighing apparently about 45 pounds, from a hive, to which• a super had been applied, the drawer, as usual, was deposited for the night underneath a shrub in the grounds, in order to allow the bees who still clung to it to go away. On the servant being sent, however, to fetch in the honey the next morning, it was found to be black with bees, being a de tachment from the swarm from whose hive the honey had been taken ; and the little girl having been twice stung in attempeg to fulfil her mission, it was thought en 2d s t to leave the honey to nightfall, in tld' ope of finding it then abando.ed by tees. And 2 , so indeed it was, fry in th 4,. urse of the day they had e Attrive4.,tb clear out the as 4.ahey,had been made combs as cleP-aY of paper. ~nus rc . taking every parade of their b,..ley.—Derset Express. The editor of the Maine Farmer re-. cords the following- thoughts in regard to horses that have become addicted to crib biting " Cribbing is undoubtedly a habit rather than a disease. This, it would seem, is proved by the fact that a young horse, con fined in a stable next to an old horse who is a cribber, will soon acquire the habit. It is very common among horses that are constantly kept in the stable, and may be caused by the animal seizing upon crib biting as a solitary pastime, to while away the tiresome hours of stable life. Or the constant diet of hay and oats may derange digestion, causing—as we ourselves well know—uneasiness and nervousness. Or the long continued inhalation of close and impure air may disorder that part of the body which is the most sympathetic of the entire system, and thus give rise to the habit. " Crib-biting may be prevented if taken in hand during the early stages. • First attend to the atmosphere of the stable, rendering it pure by careful ventilation. Place a lump of rock salt in the manger. This acts as a stimulant to the stomach and will often enable the horse's digestion to recover its lost tone. If this does not effect a cure, add to it a large piece 'of chalk. Should this prove to do no good, damp the food, and at each time of feed ing sprinkle magnesia upon it.' Mayhew also recommends a large handful of ground oak bark to be given with each feed of grain. Should none of the above measures prove of benefit, we should come to the conclusion that the disease was of a more obstinate nature, and should treat as in case of chronic indigestion." Thousands of acres of. soil are annually planted with flowers in France and Italy, for making perfume alone. A single grower in Southern France sells annually 60,000 pounds each of jasmine and tube rose, 40,000 pounds of violet blossoms, be sides thousands of pounds of mint, thyme, rosemary, etc., and he is but one of the hundreds engaged in this branch of horti culture. The atmosphere of some of the towns is so filled with fragrance, thank per sort is made aware of his approach to them by the odors which greet him miles away. Already, in America, hundreds of acres of peppermint and lavender are being planted, and the product exported to Europe. Though .the old world bears the palm in the perfumery line, and Lon don and Paris, with their Covent Gardens and Marche aux Fleurs, lead New York in window-gardening, and the cultivation of flowers in pots generally, yet New York carries on a larger trade in cut flowers than either of the cities mentioned, or any other in the world. 100.000 TH:t . PRESBYTERIAN; TAURSDAY: SEMAIRmt 27, 186 k CRIB-BITING. FLOWERS FOR PERFUMERY, gtitutifir. THE BRITISH ASSOCIATION FOR THE ADVANCEMENT OF SCIENCE. This body convened Aug. 23d. The fol lowing extrt from its proceedings will prove of interest:— THE COAST - LINE OF ENGLAND On Saturday Dr. Foster, Mr. King and Mr. Pengelly gave illustrative instances of the destructive action going on around our coasts, owing to the action of the sea upon the land ; houses and even villages being destroyed, and towns compelled to migrate. Mr. Patterson reminded the section, how ever, that if destruction was being worked in this way, there was also a process of compensation going on in the formation of new land by silting, etc., at various points which he mentioned. Mr. J. Wyatt fol lowed up the remarks by instancing the recovery of land in this way in Lincoln shire, where a company had been formed for the purpose. The President remarked that this was no doubt true, but the great permanent source of compensation was, in his opinion, no surface deposits of that kind, but the elevation of land from below, which was also known to be going on. Hav ing, in the course of his observations, made allusion to the connection which existed long geological ages ago between the British Isles and the Continent, a question having• reference to date was put to Professor Ram say by a member of the section. The President, in reply, said that this connec tion probably existed about the time of the ' glacial epoch. A vast plain appeared to have been the connecting link, across which, no doubt, had travelled those animals of huge size and reptiles whose remains were found in the British Islands, having mi grated thither from the:, East. The con nection between. England and Ireland had probably been severed at an earlier period than that between England and France, and to this circumstance, and to the compara tivSlflimited number of reptiles which had reached Ireland before the separation, be was disposed to attribute the present free dom of the country from those intruders, an exception proverbially attributed to the influence of St. Patrick. As Ito the mode of severance, he was disposed to look for it more in a gradual wasting away than in any sudden submersion. Able arguments were put forward in support of the asser tion that since the Roman period parts of the Scotch coast had risen as much as twenty-five, feet. Unquestionably, remains of whales and submerged canoes had been found at a level above the present high water mark, which it was difficult to suppose they could have reached except on the theory thus propounded. AGAINST DARWINIANISM. Mr. J. Reddie read a paper on the vari ous theories of:mares past and present con dition. .:He stated that, there were three thenrAbiykich it walLeought . tO account for the—arigrn- of irtarv—The—first--that which they had been taught from their infancy—namely, creation by GOd of men who were a little lower than angels, which he would call the religious theory; the second, which was antagonistic to the two others, was the Darwinian theory, that man descended from the ape ; and the third was the polygenous theory, which piopounded that the primitive men were savages, but lower than any known race of savages, as they could not speak. Alltheories recog nized the fact that there bad been some kind of development or change, in the human family. The chief differences be tween them related to the origin and char acter of the priinitive man. In one essen tial particular Darwinianism differed from them all, for it began with a human infant which had not human parents ; but, he would ask, how was the first young maw mal nourished in its struggle through life by parents that were not mammals ? How was the progeny trained and elevated into man, when we, with all our education, were scarcely able to prevent our masses falling back to a state rather akin to mon keys or brutes ? All that Darwin had proved in his work "On the Origin of Species," was that numerous varieties of plants and animals were developed within the limits of each particular species. All beyond the probable (but not proved) origin of species was a proof in support of it. Having enlarged at great length with great minuteness on these chief features of the paper, Mr. Reddie came to the conclusion that no theory about man or language which we can devise—even with all our after-knowledge, of the facts now existing with regara to both—Will so well account for all the facts of, the case as our old reli gious and: time-honored theory, of man's origin and the confusion• of language at Babel. A.good deal of discussion followed .the paper, but it turned principally upon the question whether it had been read in the right section or not, many of the mem bers thinkinc , b it had not much visible con nection with geography, Professor Huxley declining to enter into the discussion on that account; but he was reminded that this section was also tor ethnology as well as geography. POLLUTION OF RIVERS Colonel Sir J. E. Alexander, in the Physiological Section, read a paper " On the Effects of the Pollution of Rivers," with espe - cial reference to rivers in 'Scot land. The case of the -English rivers seemed now almost hopeless; for the pollu tion was so general that few salmon were caught. In Scotland, also, they had been rapidly degenerating of late, but there was still some hope of sailing them. A favorite accusation against thoSe who sought to preserve the' purity of rivers . was that they sought to affect injuriously the trade and manufactnres of the country, on which its prosperity. mainly depended; but his reply invariably was, that the rivers ought not to be polluted and poisoned for the ag grandizement of mill owners and manufac turers. Colonel Alexander instanced seve ral rivers which had been destroyed in this manner. The Kelvin, near Glasgow, to which the lover in the song invited his mistress, was now a common sewer, contri buting to swell the pollution of the Clyde. It was astonishing, in the midst ot so much wealth, that health was not made the first consideration, and that means were not adopted to cut off sewerage from the rivers, and to utilize it on the Chinese plan. The Earl of Selkirk, a. man of science, told him a short time ago, that the Avon at Linlithgow was scoured of its fish entire ly for the sake of one paraffin work. Paper mills, likewise, were fertile sources of de struction. The North Esk,. near Edin burgh, which was covered every day in the week with a soapy foam, had become un fitted for its primary purposes, and no con sideration on earth would induce him to accept a residence on its banks. Referring to what had been salmon rivers, Colonel Alexander mentioned a statement made by the mayor,of Bristol, to the effect that in the Severn the taint of creosote was so strong that salmon caught in these waters were unsaleable in ,London. At Stirling; in like manner, the newly-arrived officers of the garrison were surprised with the taste of tar in the - fish caught in the Forth, which was found to result from the waste materials emptied from petroleum works. In conclusion, Colonel Alexander expressed a hope that the process :of utilizing sewer ao.el which had been commenced at Dart moor,. would 'be extensively practiced, and that Scotland, as a country, would be saved from the loss of beality and ruin of its pal atial.residences that must infallibly result from the progress of river pollution. DISCOVERIES IN CAMBODIA In the Geographical Section, Mr. J. Thompson, who, at considerable personal risk, labor, and danger to health, had suc ceeded in penetrating to the ruined temples of Cambodia, and in bringing back admira ble photographs of these ruins, laid before the section some details of his journey. Starting from Bangkok, in Siam, he had succeeded in reaching these.edifices, which stood in the midst of. a vast plain, surround ed by forest and jungle, the quarries from which it is supposed they were built being at a distance of forty miles. No trace of the - people who built them can be discover ed, nor can the era to which they belong be ascertained. The present inhabitants of the country have no architectural know ledge, and worship the statues in general, having among them a tradition that the palaces, temples, etc., were erected in one night by a flight of angels from Heaven. There are inscriptions belonging to three different periods on the walls, but only the la*st of th'e-e can be deciphered, and have no reference whatever to the buildings. Mr. Thompson exhibited specimens of the photographs which he had taken, which are really admirable as works of art, and show incontestably that the designers of the long stone-roofed corridors, noble bas-reliefs, and exquisitely finished statues, must have reached a very high state of civilization. DISCOVERY IN CENTRAL-AFRICA Sir Samuel Baker, on Wednesday, gave some further reminiscences of his travels in Africa, with an especial bearing on the future of ;:;the ~native* races. He believed thatatsonpiod of the future—though, unfortuys*sly,,thitOer!dletene4 too re aotefoiu;ey,ar,t to pen.ra k darknessmi;voud:?eom the dust to something more than the level of the brute. His travels had led him to the conclusion that man in his wild state was influenced very greatly by the features and character of the country which he inhabited. Gene rally, the wild man's only impulse was to fill his belly to-day, and to leave it empty for to-morrow. If a beast, therefore, were killed,"'xis far as possible, it would all be eaten in one day. On one occasion, in the course of forty-five days' sail through marshes, his party came upon a parcel of natives exactly the color of slate pencils, and even thinner, who seemed in a state of all but starvation. They looked more like gnats of the river than human beings ; and I .he was glad when, having given them all they could spare, they got away again, for these natives would otherwise have stayed by them till they had eaten everything belonging to them. As soon as they had reached the end of the marshes and came to terra firma, they met with natives supe rior to those he had spoken of. They possessed the art of smelting iron, and al though having only a stone for an anvil, another for a hammer, and a cleft stick. for a pair of tongs, he had seen a rude shirt of mail, 9 in. by 6in., made for the chief by a native blacksmith.. So far there were evi dences of capacity among the negroes, but he found the capacity was only limited. In infancy and childhood their intelligence 'was equal, iffifto superior, to that of Euro peans, but at twelve or fourteen the intel lectual capacity appeared to have lost its power of further development. Sir S. Baker narrated with infinite humor some circumstances of a ludicrous eharacter growing out of the superstition's of the na tives and the difficulties in which their head sorcerer occasionally found himself from first promising and then being unable to supply rain. The Africans, he said, were not content with the form of witchcraft— spiritqapping, and table-turning—which prevailed in England; any sorcerer whose attainments rose no higher than these would be looked upon as an idiot, and per; haps be set to frighten birds from the corn. A sorcerer in Africa, above all things, must be practical. A Mr. Murphy, he believed, had compiled a weather alma nac in this country. But if Mr. Murphy had brought out his work under responsi bilities similar to those attendant on alma nac-Ala king in Africa, he would think a long time before writing it, and his publish er a still longer time before bringing it out. Supposing that rain were promised on the 26th of August, all the tribes would assemble, and if it happened to be a fine day, the almanac maker would be seized, and unless he promised to bring rain within a given time they would take a lance and cut ,him open to see where the fault in the alaranac lay. Sir S. Baker declared that at 'one of the farthest points to which he had, penetrated, he found traces of commer cial enterprise at one time existing, though terminated a long while ago, as he under stood, because some white men of the com pany had been put to death ; Arabs, and all persons not actually blank, being called ," white men" in Africa. From various details which he had been able to gather, he inferred that these traders must have been &Tabs from the coast of Zanzibar ; and as the rate of progress in the East was so infinitesimal, it was quite possible that 'trading from the same direction and con ducted. on similar principles existed thou sands of years ago, and that Ptolemy had obtained from some of' the traders from the Zanzibar coast his information that the . Nile was fed by two large lakes in the interior of Africa. As regarded the future, it was utterly impossible to expect any im provement in the condition of the African negro till the slave trade was finally put down: The whole trade of the country was conducted on a system of murder and robbery. Parties of Arabs, 450 or 500 strong, swept down upon villages, massa cred most of the inhabitants, and carried away the women and• children, whom they exchanged with other tribes for ivory, the price of which formed the gains of the excursion. The hostility caused by these periOlo4 4neursions was so bitter in its character, as to close' the interior not only to explorers but to all approaches in a true commercial spirit. The negroes according ly remained, and to' all.appearance must re main';' unless the power of Europe was ex erted, very much what they were at the time probably, when Moses was writing his history of Adam—that was to say, wild men roaming about as unheeded as the beasts of the forest. It was difficult to see exactly what steps England could take. But he hoped it would be found that she Could take some steps ; and once the na tives found by experience that they could look on the face of a white man without fear, intercourse would spring up, the beneficial effects of commerce would make themselves felt, and thus an opening be gained for the higher and ennobling efforts of the missionary.— Weekly Review.
