Whereupon Mr. Mcllcury Hpoko ns ful low : Mr. Speaker. The, Resolutions that have juit been read f.nd remarks thit havo just been mado having a bearing upon the ' death of my colleague ami my irietid linn. S. 1. ltyan, I ask tho indulgence of tho llouso to be heard n few minutes. Ordinarily Mr. Speaker eulogies nro mat ters of form, but In this case our sorrow is general and genuine. My acquaintance be gan with him two years ago, when we were candidates for nomination in a hotly con tested campaign. Though Into In the field and unknown to most of our voters.liis genial manners and straightforward conduct en deared him to our people, nnd be becamo my colleague. It has been said, Mr. Sfeakcr, that dentil loves n shining mark, and in no case has the charee been better illustrated than in the death of my friend. Jle was young In yars but had tho confidence nnd respect of his constituents nnd friends; the future lay open to him nnd had he lived I doubt not his energy and intelligence ivouiu nave ncnieveu miner Honors. His honesty and integrity wore beyond question. Though young ami inexperienced in public duties ins native sense and good un derstanding shielded him from tho snares nnd temptations too common to members of tins body, ana Ins ollicial record goes to I113 County nnd his friends without a stain or blur. In private life he occupied a position of nonor anu trust, in tlie colliery ot Ander son &Co., in Conyngham township, and his highest tribute is thnt ho was tho unanimous choice of tho workingmcn, who saw in him a lutr champion of their real interests. I scarcely need add that as a member he was assiduous in his duties, firm and earnest in his convictions, yet courteous nnd genial to all. No friend ever appealed to him in a right cause in vain ; his generosity wn3 un bounded. Mr. Speaker, death has taken from our body eleven members. Young nnd old has been summoned; many who camo hero in tho vigor of health, with bright anticipations; havo gone to their last resting place and we know not where the blow may fall next. We are on tho evo of adjournment for tho session and in all human probability many of us will never meet again in this world. Let our intercourse and conduct then be'such that after our passage from thi3 world to the next, our record here and above may be pure and spotless. Judge Thomas BIcKean. Tcrbaps no man attracted as much hom age from the crowd as Judge Thomas Mc- ICean, then Delegate to Congress, and after ward Chief-Justice. He was one of the first '""one or two aged specimens yet remain, of abnormal size and strength both in mind and body. Judge M'ICean was over six feet, erect, even in old age, as a pino tree, and noted for the exceptional statelincss of his carriage. He always wore an immense cock ed hat and a scarlet gown upon the bench, and, when he became Chief-Justice, sur. rounded himself with all tho stato and pomp which belong to the judiciary of Eng land. The sheriff, tipstaves, etc., sny Da vid I'aul Drown.swclled tho retinue of Judge M'Kean as he passed in procession through the streets to open court. Thomas M'Kean is acknowledged to have been an able law yer and a patriot of inflexible integrity, but it was hinted by jealous compatriots thai his stately and grim reserve was assumed to liido his lack of early good breeding. He fought for tho Declaration, signed it, and suffered for tho signing with his usual indomitable firmness, being in 1777 hunted like a fox through tho State, compelled to remove his family fivo times, and hide them at last In a little log-houBe in the wilderness, Mauy an ecdotes remain of the great jurist, both as Chief-Justice, and Governor, which forcibly illustrate tho change of manners since then. Ono day, when a mob had assembled outside of the Supreme Court, bo sent for the sher iff and commanded him to suppress the riot. "I cannot do it," replied the trembling of ficial. "Why do you not suunnon your posse ?" thundered the scowling Chief-Justice. "I have summoned them, but they are in effectual." 'Then, sir, why do you not summon mo ?" The sheriff, 6tunned for a moment, gasped out, "I do summon you, Sir." Whereupon the gigantic Chief-Justice, scarlet gown, cocked bat, and all, swooned down on the mob like an eagle on a flock of sheep, and catching two of the ringleaders by the throat, quelled the not, Another story is of an effort made by the Fhlladelphlans, when ho was Governor, to prevent his nomination of Tilgb.nan as Chief-Justice. A commlttco was sent of Duane, Leiper, and others, who announced themselves as representing the sovereign people, the great democracy of Philadelphia, and declaring that they could never approve this nomlnatjop. Tho Governor listened with his usual haughty courtesy, and, bow ing proiounuiy, replied, inform your con stituents that I bow with submission to the great democracy of Philadelphia ; but, by God I William Tilgbman i.aWbe Chief-Justice of Pennsylvania " Aud he was. M'Kean'a daughter, a woman of great beauty, married the Marquli de Vroja, a Spanish grandee of the bluest blood, but whose pride of bearing, we are told never equaled that of Ills' plebeian fallier-in-law. From "Old Philadelphia," by Rebecca Harding Davis, in JlarjKi't Magazine for May, The New Bedford (Mass.) Mercury tells this: "A day or two since five dogs were shut up In a yard in this city by the gate twinging together they passed through it. Wheu they wished to go out they were un able to open the gate, as It Bwung inward. The animals held au apparent consultation for a few minutes, after which a big New foundland clambered over the fence. On reaching the street he at once pushed the gate open and released the prisoners." "I'se the boy what did tho shootin'." The speaker, a young negro, sat on a door step In New Orleaas, and addressed a poll co man. "Yes, you mougut's well arrest me, for I've shot atepdad. lie cuffed me, and I took a sudden notion to kill tho ole fraud. Guess he's passed In 'fore this time." He ivu right, IIli stepfather was dead, from a wound inflict! by tin utepwa. lA!cHd'ultUrai. To Clean A Rusty Plow. Take n quart of water and pour slowly Into It half, a pint of sulphuric ncld. The mixture will becomo quite warm from chemical action, nnd this ii tho reason why tho acid should bo poured slowly Into tho water, rather than tho water Into tho ncld. Let it remain on tho iron till It evaporates. Then wash It again. The object U to glvo tho ncid ttmo to dlssolvo the rust. Then wash with water nnd you will perceive where tho worst spots are. Apply some more ncld, and rub on thoso spots with a brick. The ncid nnd tho scouring wib re novo most of tho rust. Then wash the mould board thoroughly with water to re move all tho ncid, nnd rub it dry. llriuh It over with petroleum, or other oil, nnd let it ho till Spring. When you go to plowing, take n bottlo of tho ncld wntcr to tho field with you nnd apply it every 'bout to any spot of rust that may remain. The ncid nnd the scouring of tho earth will soon mnko it perfectly bright nnd smooth. If all iron work bo washed off with petroleum as soon as wc put our tools, Implements, nnd ma chines asldo for the Winter,lt will keep them from rustlng.and snvc a great deal of troublo and annoyance, lo say nothing of deprecia' tion and loss. .Rural H'orW. Apple-Seeds for 1'i.antino. Column's Rural UurM.ln answering tho question how to mannge apple-seeds, says: Take three or four times the quantity of sand that you havo of apple-seed, nnd mix the seed and sand well together, nnd put in shallow boxes, nnd expose to tho winter weather to freeze nnd thaw. They should bo stirred occasionally, nnd kept out of the reach of fowls, as thev will cat the seed. As the warm weather approaches, tho seed will begin to germinate, and at tho proper time for planting the ground should bo deeply plowed nnd finely pulverized to receive the seed, Rich soil Is" needed, and if frce'from weeds, so much tho better. Most persons drop the seeds with tho sand, in rows two feet or two and a half feet, or threo feet apart, so as to hdmlt of horso cultivation. The plants must havo clean culture nnd thorough hand-weeding and proper thinning, so as to bo ready for' grafting at tho en'd'of ono season s growth. A naturally well drained soil should bo chosen. AVoon Ashes. Tho Scientific American says : "The point to which we now call at tention is, that our farmers and fruit-growers havo ignored, or rather havo been ignorant of the importance of wood ashes asn vege table stimulant and a leading constituent 0!' plants. Even coal ashes, now thrown away as useless, havo been shown both by experi ment and analysis to possess a fair share of alkaline value. Wo will relate only ono experiment. Some twenty-five years ago wc treated an old pippin, applo tree as follows : The hollow to the height of eight feet, was filled and rammed with a composite of wood ashes', garden mould, and a little wastolinle, (carbonate.) The filling was securely fasten ed in by boards. The next year tho crop of sound, fruit was sixteen bushels from an old shell of a tree that had borne nothing of any account for some time, and for seventeen years after the filling of the old pippin tree it continued toilourWi nnd bear well. Flies in Stables. Mr. Mechi calls at tention to tlio system of darkening cow stables by hanging old canvas over the open ings, adopted by the late Mr. Hudson of Castle Acre, to keep out the flies. Ho says "that, on a visit 'tiiere7he was ""ilnKSsTlLsnd J instructed by seeing the well-fattened cattle get rid of their tormentors by passing be tween pendent canvas curtains, which ad mitted them and closed after them, render ing the shed dark and fly less. Another friend who had many cows in a long hhed, having its ridge louvre-boarded throughout its whole length, and divided by a pendent board on Watson's principle, excluded light except fiom these openings in the roof; not n single cow's tnil was in motion, for tho flies would not descend into the darkness." nn Learned How to Spf.i.i. "Zinc." One way of conducting a spelling bee In England is to let one person begin with a letter, the next one must add to it, having a complete word in his head, and so on, until some one finishes whatever word may event ually be manufactured. Says a writer in the Court Circular: "It is astonishing how unfamiliar certain common combinations of letters sound when said in this way. Thus I heard of a bee held in a commercial room in a largo hotel, when 'tho word had got as far as zin. What on earth can 'zin' be the beginning of?' said the next man ; and ho was so convinced there could be no word in the language beginning in that way that he made various bets against it, then 'challeng ed' the last speaker that is, asked him to complete tho word, 'Zinc' was the answer, and thereupon tho puzzled one jumped with a spasm of agony. 'By Jove,' he said, 'and I travel in it myself.' That was the fact, ho represented a hardware firm, and sold zinc every day of his life." A ludicrous incident occurred at a trial in one of the Courts in Jersey City, several weeks ago. The trial was in progress, and several important witness had been ex cluded, when ono of tho counsel picked up the book upon which the witnesses had been sworn, in n careless manner, and per haps, to refresh his memory with a Bible text, and opened it, when, to his astonish. meut, he lound tho book was entitled "Tales and Novels," by Maria Kdgeworth. He im mediately arose aud announced the fact, to the consternation of tho Justice aud amuse ment of the spectators. In conseipiciivo all tne witnesses linu to be sworn and to repeat their testimony. One causo of the mistake was tho close similarity of the covers of the two books, and it is also hinted that it was tho work of a waggish lawyer. A New Method or "Hzxiwinq Evns Out." Says the Griffin (Ga.)JVeu ; "A few days ago Mr. Jarrctt rounds, a young gen tlemen of this county, was engaged in cut ting wood, wheu a largo chip Hew up and struck him ever the eye. A few minutes after receiving tho blow he made au effort to blow his nose, and actually blew his eye completely out of its socket, leaving its cen tral attachments. The eye was replaced by some friend, but the young gentlemen, soon after the accident, becamo insensible, nnd bad several convulsions. The eye was ex amined by Dr. J, L. Stevenson, of this city, who states that the sight is not impaired, and It is firmly fixed in Its placo again." A bishop was going the round of his Epis copal charge, and was the guest, in a remote quarter, of a country clergyman, who told his rustic servants, before the bishop's arri val, to be very careful, when addressing him, to say "My Lord." They were pretty familiar with their parts. ; but ono man was bo awed, wheu the bishop addretsed him, that he made a slight transposition In the arrangement of his words. The bishop said, "I want to send my letters to the pott. How do you send them?" Upon which the man. in his perturbation, replied, "By the ;Lord, tny boy," Intending of course, "By the boy, toy lord," Tt VULOAtf lltOiV WORKS - DANVIbUJ, MONTOUlt COONTr, PA, WT 1LLIAM II.
