Santeu & efeolrt. SCATTEKKO TBRASI!KE. In ths natural way of things the leaves de cay where they fall, and thus return to the earth more of organic matter than the tree takes from it. In cultivation we do not al low things to go on in their natural way, but with some portions of earth to be tin natu rally fertile, and we accumulate manures. Besides, in our civilization we have* certain ideas of neatness with which fallen leaves eontlict. and we gather tbem op because they have a slovenly look that offends us Kvery leaf should be saved, and if not allowed to decay and enrich the ground where it falls, it should be made to do good service elsewhere. In our country towns and villages, so gener ally planted with shade trees, the crop of leaves is blown about and usually goes to waste. The careful gardener will be on the look out for these "scattered treasures, and gather them all for preservation, (lathering the autumn leaves is excellent work for chil dren, and men and women not be ashamed of it, for it is merely accepting one of the gifts oCa bountiful Providence. Leaves are nature's own winter mulch for the wild flowers of the Woods, and we can have nothing better for our beds and borders. For bulbs and all herbaceeous plants, straw berries. and all things requiring a winter cov ering, the otherwise wasted" leaves will be found most usrfftl. Ther. when we come to make hot-beds in early spring, they serve to mix with manure in the proportion of one fourth to one-half, and make a better heating material than manure alone. And after hav ing served this purpose, their vitality is not exhausted. The old heating material, mixed manure and leaves, thoroughly rotted, makes a manure that every gardener knows the val ue of. Save the leaves then, there is money in them. ABOUT ALKALIES AND ACIDS. These two words occur so frequently in every day life, that a few explanations of theui will be acceptable to the unscientific reader. —ALKALIES. —Potash and Soda are familiar examples of alkalies-. When pure they have a strong caustic or butn'i.u taste. They dissolve readily ifi water, and also unite with oil or prr-ase. W afcr and oil will not unite together, but put some alkali with them and (his will take hold of each and j bring them together, as in making soup. The strongest and most common alkalies are Potash, Soda, and Ammonia or Harts horn. Ammonia is a powerful alkali, but as we usually see it, it is dissolved in a large amount of water. There are other alkalies and many alkaloids, that is vegetable, sub stances that have alkaline properties, such as quina, morphia, strychnia, etc. Then there are alkaline earths, as they are called. Lime is one of these, which when newly burned, is very caustic. Magnesia is another. Lime and magnesia, and especially lime, arc use ful in many cases as alkalies. As an alkali is often wanted, sometimes in haste to neu tralize an acid, as explained below, the un scientific reader will remember the five most common alkaline substances, by the initials PSAL3I, standing for Potash, Sotla, Am monia, Lime, Magnesia. ACIDS. —The word acid means sour, and most of the common acids are very sour to the taste. Ascetic acid, or vinegar, when pure is intensely sour, and would destroy the flesh, but good strong vinegar contains only sor fi parts acid dissolved in 100 parts of water. Sulphric acid, commonly called "oil of vitrol," is one of the strong acids. A drop of this in a pint of water will make it taste sour. Nitric acid, called acqua-for tis, is another of the strong acids. So is hydro-chloric acid, commonly called muriatic acid, or spirit of salt. Then we have citric acid, the sour of lemon juice ; malic acid, the sour of apple juice ; tartaric acid, the sour in grapes and some other fruits ; lactic acid, the sour formed in milk, etc., as common examples. We generally say when anything becomes sour, that it is ascid-i-fied. Almost all rcids when strong, are injurious to the flesh, and poisonous if swallowed, but when greatly diluted with water, they are frequently tonic or strength ening. Some fruits are for this reason oftcu useful, and generally healthful, if well mashed or masticated so as to be easily digested. Vinegar is much used with some kinds of food to aid in their digestion, but too much of it injures and weakens the stomach, and it is not advisable for constant use.— Carbonic acid is very abundant, but we never see it alone, because when not com bined with something else, it always takes a gas or air-like form. It is produced wher ever any vegetable substances, as coal, wood oil, etc, are burned, It- is this acid that bubbles up in soda water, and gives it a sourish taste. It is carbonic acid that fills the little interstices or air-holes that make bread, cake, batter, etc., light. It unites with potash to form saleratus, with lime to make limestone, chalk, or marble. The acids and alkalies unite together, and usually destroy each other's acrid proper ties, forming what are termed "salts." Thus strong sulphric acid (oil of vitrof) unites with the powerfully caustic soda, and forms the mild compound known as Glauber salts (sulphrate of soda.) So also when this pow erful oil of vitrol which eats into the flesh and even chars wood, is united with the in tensely caustic fresh lime, the two neutral ize each other's properties, and form the mild, tasteless sulphrate of lime, (gypsum or Plaster,) which we sow on land, and use in making casts, cornices and ornaments on plastered walls, etc. Acqua-fortis (nitric acid), as powerful as it is to destroy the flesh, and to dissolve metals, when untied with caustic lime, make a compound as mild as plaster, and when nnited with potash makes salpetre. Soda put in acid or soured batter neutralizes the acid formed. One practical lesson to be learned from the above is, that when trouble results from the acci dental or over use of either an acid or alkali, it is to be counteracted by applying the other. For example, if an acid is acciden tally swallowed, follow it as quickly as possi ble with some alkali, —as a weak solution of potash or soda, or lime water. A strong so lution of soap swallowed freely, is the best common remdy. The effects of potash, soda, lime, strong soap, etc., upon the hands, are neutralized by a weak wash of any acid, as acetic acid (vinegar.) Acid spilled upon the the be quickly neutralized with potasb f wda, am monia, or lime water* j (THE INCtUIREB JOB PRINTING OFFICE, Bedford, l*a.

The Grover and Baker Elastic-Stitch sewing aro superior to all others for the follow ■ in-: reasons : 1. They sew direct from tha spools, and require no rewinding of thread. 2. They are more easily understood and used, and Ic-s liable to derangement than other ma chines. 3. They are capable of executing perfectly, without change of adjustment, a much greater variety ' f work than other machines. 1. The stitch made by these machines is much Hi' re lirtn, elastic, and durable, especially upon articles which require to he washed and ironed, than any other stitch. a. Ihis stitch, owing to the manner in which the under thread is inwrought, is much the most plump and beautiful in us-, and retains this plumpness and beauty even upon articles frequent ly washed aud ironed until they are worn out. il. The structure of the seam is sueh that, though it be cut or broken at intcrrals of only a few stitches, it will neither open, run, or ravel, but remains firm and durable. 7. Unlike other machines, these fasten both ends of the seam by their own operation, 8. V. ith these machines, while silk is used upo' the right or face side of the seam, cotton may • used upon the other side without lessening th* strength or durability of the seam. This can he done on other machine, and is a great saving upon all articles stitched or lqade up with silk. These machines, in addition to their superior merits as instruments for sewing, by a change of adjustment, easily learned aud practiced, execute the most beautiful and permanent embroidery and ornamental work.
