There arr, eotm tiroes. rel bhuwers of very
unreal ruin. It ib stated by an old wiiter
tliat i Lapland and Fin mark, about a ctri
tury ago, mice of a peculiar kind were known
to fail from the sky, and that such an event
w;ia sure to be followed Ly a guod year for
foxes. A shower uf frogs fell near Totiloute
iu 1804. A prodigious number of black
insects about an inch in length, descended
in a snow storm at Patroff, Russia, in 1827.
On one occasion, in Norway, the peasants
were astonh-hed at finding a shower of rats
peltinsr, down upon their heads. Showers ( f
fishes have been numerous. At Stanstead,
in Kent, in 1606, a pasture field was found
cne morning pleLttlully covered with fish,
although there is neither sea nor river, lake
nor fish pond near. At Ailababid, in 1839,
an English cfticer saw a good smart down
pour of fish, arel soon after thousands of
small dead fish were found upon the ground.
Scotland has had many of these showers of
fLh. as in Ilnsshirc. in 1829, when qn,,tities
of herring fry covered the ground ; at Ilay,
in 1830, when a large number of herring
were found strewed over a field after a hea
ty, gusty rainj at Wick, much more recent
ly, when herring were found io large quan
tities in a field half a mile from the beach.
In all these and numerous other cases, when
a liberal alio -.ranee has been made for exag
geration, the remainder can be well explained
by understood causes.
Stray wind blowing from a sea or river, a
water-spoUt licking up the fish out of the
water, a whirlwind sending them hiil.tr and
thither all these are intelligible, The rat
shower in Norway was an extraordinary one.
Thousands of rats were taking their annual
excursion from a hilly region to the low
lands, when a whirlwind overtook them,
whisked them up" and deposited them iu a
field at some distance, doubtless to the as
tonishment of such rats as came down alive.
The so-called blood showers have had- their
days of terror and marvil, aud have disap
peared. N t that auv one ever saw such a
shower actually fall, but red spots have oc
casionally btuu se.n on walls and stones,
much to the popular dismay. Swammer
dain, the naturalist, told the cople of Ilamie,
two centuries ago, that these red spots were
connected with some pheuomena of insect
life, but they would not believe him, and
insisted that the spots wtie real blood and
were portents of evil times to come. Other
naturalists have since coLtirmed the fccien.
tific opinion.
A Wonderful Do. A gentleman in
Oswego, who has a dog valued in the family
as a pet, relates a Ftiauge incident of the
power to charm or fascinate, common to
reptiles, but rather extraordinary among
quadruped;!. Recently the kitchen girl saw
this dog seated on his haunch;s with one
forepaw lifted, eyeing a rat under a cupboard
in tome room connected with the house.
The rat also had his- eyes fixed on the di g,
and after watching them a few moments, the
girl, thinking it 6t range, called some of the
family, who, interested to see how this curi
ous circumstance would turn out. came and
stood quietly by. For half an hour thee
animals maintained the same position, being
some six or eisht feet apart. At the end of
that time Uie rat, slowly and trembling with
fear, began to approach the dog, their eyes
Btill fixed ou each other immovably. Con
tinuing to creep up, when within a couple
of feet, the dog sprung, and catching the rat,
quickly disposed of him. It was afterwards
discovered that the hole iu the wall through
which the rat cmie was immediately back
c f where he wa first seen. This occurrence
is vou-Jied for on the most reliable tetitr.o
ijy, and is ore i f the most tdugu!a.r instances
of "charming" on record.

year 1802 Mr. John Kiikey. of fiercer coun
ty, renusylvauia, living alcng Neshanock
crk, planted a quantity of blue, red, whi:e
and other varieties of potatoes, from the
product of which he selected the above named
variety, which at first were calcd Neshan
ocks. after the creek near which he lived
They were soon brought into notice, by the
name of Mercer and cultivated near Phila
delphia, from whtneo they spread over t e
whole country, and were for a long tin e
more generally cultivated than any other
variety, but of late years have been on the
decline, other new varieties having beeu in
troduced, none of which, however, have ob
tained the celebrity of the Mercer, which was
almost universally planted for nearly half a
century, owing to its superior edible quali
ties aud productiveness. It may be a long
time before any one variety of this valuable
esculent to man will attain the prominence
of the noble Mercer, which, although having
had its day, is still the favorite with a large
number of people.
Bcsn Yourt Tomatoes. It is just as sen
Bible to grow peas without bushing them,
as it is tomatoes. You may grow both in
a slovenly way, if you have plenty of room
and the ground j but you can grow either
twice as well if you have something to sup
porftbem, and tomatoes are decidedly better
grown up in the air than near the ground
under the shade of a mass of vines. The
best support of a tomato vine is a short bush
set firmly in the ground so that the branches
have room to spread among the limbs and
and support the fruit. The plan is much
better than tying to stakes and trimming,
according to our c-xpei ieuce. We have
tried both ways.
We have every season, for the last four
or five year., cflered this advice to growers
of thi3 valuable esculent. Bushing will in
crease the progress nearly rne half will
give lirger fmit, and it will keep sound
much lorger on the 'n.C6. Gcrniantown

TnE Steel Ten. J aroes Perry, an Eng
lish fcchoolcnaster, made the first steel pen,
aud was so good a business man that he
succeeded in intorducing it as the Perryau
pen. In 1825 ho had fifty men engaged iu
the business of making pens; but it was
left for Jeremiah Mason to make the pen
popular; the same man, by the way, who
became & second Peabody by establishing
an orphan asylum endowed with $1,200,
000. Mason was a Kiddermiuster carpet
weaver, but went to Birmingham and man
ufactured pins, Deedles, shoe-strings, and
infinitesimal essentials. Here he saw in a
Bhop window a teel pen, priced at sixpence,
lie bought three, made better acd lighter
ones at a penny and a quarter apiece, and
sent specimei.a to Perry. The inventor was
delighted, advanced money to Mason, and
the intercourse ended in partnership and mu
tual wealth. Perry has siuce died, and
Maren is the sole proprietor of the Perry an

BEE HIVE.
The undersigned has secured lptters patent
of the United .States, dated December 14, 18 9,
for an improvement in the construction of Bee
Hives, and claims for his invention advantages
possessed by no other heretofore patented.
The principal feature of this Hee Hive is the
arrangement by means of which it is thorough
ly ventilated, thus precluding the possibility of
the bees smothering, ihe comb moulding or the
honey souring. This desirable end is accom
plished by a vertical perforated tube, running
centrally through the hive and open at the top
and bottom. All persons interested in apicul
ture will at onUe see the great advantages se
cured in this improvement. The ventilator is
for the increase of bees
The peculiar construction of the box, partic
ularly iu the arrangement of the inner com
partments, whereby it can be cleaned at any
time without disturbing the bees, is another
valuable improvement which will be obvious
to' any person ho examines this Hive. An
examination of the workings of the bees or the
condition of the interior can he made at any
time, as the sides are cased with glass. Pees
can be trasferred from a different hive to the
improved one without any difficulty whatever.
It would require too much space to enumerate
here all the advantages claimed in this inven
tion, but full information wid be promptly fur
niidicd by applying in person or by letter to the
patentee. I am now irepared to dispose of
territory fr the sale of the Improved Dee Hive
in any portion of the United States.

"IIkke's Your Cake!' Many years j
a?o, when Judge Robert M. Charlton, of i
Savannah. Ga., was quito a young man,
he, in company with his father, the Hon.
T. U. 1. Charlton, spent every Bummer
in the delightful little village of Clarks
ville, North-Eastern Georgia. One day
George was passing along the street in
Clarksville, nnd it happened to be eleclioti
d;iy (members of Congress were then elec
ted by what is culled the general ticket
system, and not by districts, as they now
are,) when he was met by a verdant
Democrat of the mountains, who accosted
him thus: "Mr. Charlton, are you the
man that is running for Congress ?" ''No,
sir, I am no candidate ; my father is,
however. Hut may I ask why this inqui
ry ?' "Nothing, only I haven't voied
y it." If it is consiMent with your feel
ings, I would like it if vou would vote for
my father." "I would just as-soon vote
for him as anybody." Mr. C. thanked
him. and thinking perhaps his friend was
seeking a treat, invited him iniu a nei
boring bar-room. "What will you take V
"I never take anything, but I see they
have Fome gingercake?. I would as lief
take one of lliem witli you as not."
"Very. well. Give us a cake." "My
brother is in town with me." "All right;
take him a cake with my respects." An
other cake was purchased and paid for,
and the twu friends parted "Greeny"
to find his brother, and Mr. C. to join in
the merry dance with hia younj; friends
in a parlor hard by. "The golden hours
on angel's wings" passed rapidly away
with Mr. Charlton. Ilisfiiend was soon
forgotten. Late in the evening, when
there was a pauie in the dance, our ver
dant friend, very much to the surprise of
every one, stalked into the parlor, inqui-.
ring for Mr. C. Of course all eyes were
directed to our friend as he approached
MrTC. Drawing from his pocket a four
by six inch cake, he said : "Mr. Charlton
here's your cake. My brother had voted
afore I eeed him."

REAPER AND MOWER!
GREATLY IMPROVED,
With double motion, or change ef speed at
will. By the movement of an easy working
lever, without stopping the team, the speed
can be easily changed from fast to slow, and
from slow to fast ; or by the same lever can
be thrown entirely out ef gear. Also a
grand improvement in the new Geared Peel
that is so popular, and with a new Self-Hake
and other improvements, the JF.tna " is
conceded to be far ahead of all its competitors
in every essential quality of a successful
