Te author of Sunbad the Suitor' Ad
venture'' must roiiTu hi laurels. One
W. II. Stokes has been exploring n recently
discovered care nc.vr rine Jrve, Aituir
County, and writes to t) j .S it:er C'.c-k
IndepemlfiH' an aecom of hi inte-ua-tions.
Sir. Stokes vouches for the exact
truth of his narrative in every p.irtienlnr,
nnd we doubt not that the render will read
ily credit it from the following specimen de
scription of one of the chambers the party
entered. Al'U-r journeying for a mile and a
quarter through the underground passages,
Stoke and hi party found themselves in a
"loii. hut rather narrow chamber, the walls
of which are n-t limestone, but a yellowish
brown and black iron ore." This chamber
beat SinbaJ's magnetic tnnuntain, which
drew die nails from his ship and t!iu caused
it to la II to pieces, all ho'low. Listen to
Sir. Stokes :
"Upon entering this cliamVr we noticed
a roost peculiar disturlmtice of the magnet,
the needle constantly vibrating from siie to
side, and frequently whirling around lor a
minute at a time, with a velocity which ren
dered it invisible. We also expjrL-necd a
singular sensation a sort of chill, appear
ing to commence at the back of the neck and
extending to the very tips of our finger Bud
toes. A we advanced in this chandler wc
found these singular sensations to increase
in intensity until it became almost unbeara
ble. We ventured on still further, however,
though it became evident that we could not
long remain iu this mysterious place. I
omitted to mention that the walls and Hour
of this chamber, especially particular rocks
ti,, t-: .i... . i !,..
therein, were highly magnetic, and became
more so the further we advanced toward the
, I
north. I
"Uneof the party who carried a hatchet
had it suddenly wrested from him by a inng-
nctic rock near which he passed, and the
combined strength of four of us was insuf
ficient to detach it. A pocket knife, which '
accidentally dropped to the fl or, had to re-!
main there, none of the party having suf!ic-
ient strength in his lingers to pick it up. 1
Mason, who had put on for the ofcnsioti a
pair of miner's boots, the soles of which'
were filled with nails, could walk with diffi
culty, and happening to step upon a portion
of the floor unusually magnetic, found
himself suddenly affixed thereto, und unable
to move, lie was compelled to withdraw
his feet from his boots and leave them there,
tearing up h i-i coat and wrapping the piece
around his feet to protect them from being
cut by rocks. We had remained in this
chamber about ten minutes, when suddenly
the shilling sensation began to increa-e, the
,. . . ... .
feeling being as if a Cold and piercing wind
.1 i i i
was blowing upon us, and becoming each
moment intensely cold. We hastily retreat-

In the Northern countries of England,
and especially in Lincashire, kicking is a
favorite mode of fighting, and as the poorer
clashes in that region wear wooden clogs,

but with little result. The matter is to be
brought before Parliament by petition.
Flogging is regarded an the only possible
e.T.fthe punishment, and Parliament will

Tho practice of violently assaulting par
tie in the streets at night by severe kicking
has leen so common of late in this locality
that I venture to remark that in all cases
of extremely violent assault the law would
have to be rigidly enforced, and if it were
found to le insufficient, additional power
would have to be sought from Parliament
to order heavier punishment
Mv experi-
ence tenches me that the moral feelings of
the perprtiators of these crimes are so
thoroughly barlwrous and oblivious to

Our Cellars.
All the refuse of a house is stored in its
e:-llar, therefore look to your cellars occa
sionally. Old lioxes, bins and lirrels, which
have Contained vegetable matter, meat, fish,
etc , neeil thorough overhauling. It is not
that standing in a dark corner they look
empty ; there may ls enough poison left
sticking on the skies and bottom to ad ct
the health of the household. This work of
cleansing is often left to the women and
hoys of the family. A man had much bet
ter k-Hte his work a day, to make a thor
ough examination and purification of the
cellar, than to lie unduly anxious about get
ting in his crops in extra season. After all
the garl)age is carried out, let the ceilings
and walls lie brushed with an old broom ; if
this is done once a month, the atmosphere
will be all the sweeter. Use plenty of
lime, nnd, in dry weather, keep the doors
and windows open a part of every day.
Old tin and wooden ware should n t be al
lowed to stand year after year upon the
eellar shelves If it is not fit to be used,
throw it away. The cellar should be kept as
iidy as the rest of the house.

AURICULTUUAU
How to Treat Fruit-Trees. To coneil
erinff the g-rowth of organisms, the action
of the alkalies is to he looked npon as
scarcely le- important than that of air and
water. Lime is the great animal alkali, and
potash the vegetable one ; its old name of
vegetable alkali expressed that fact, and all
the potash of commerce i known to be do
rived from wood ahc. The importance of
potash ns a manure has leen frequently
overlooked by farmers, who rarely know the
l;ire amount of tin material found in grass,
grain erofr, leaves, barn-yard manure,
ro't, and fruits. How p.itiush acts in
plant", in conjunction with carbon and silos,
to form woody fibre, starch, sujrar, and oil,
i.-yet unknown to chemical observers ; bul
the furt of it-s action is lieyond a doubt.
Liohijj lone; siucc pointed out that tbe cliief
caase of IxiiTennc-ss is the wate of potash
carried off hy rich crops, especially tobacco,
with no reilucsinent by proper manure.
I low ninny millions of pounds of potash
!iae bc.i sent to Europe from t!:C forests
of Auiei tea, and in the g'-ain, tobacco, and
hemp ! Luckily, n3 alkali may lie replaced
by another, and we have received a .c n
siderahle quantitj of soda from Europ3.n1
pca-wccJ and in the shape of salt. Latterly,
nitrate of soda, from natural dejo.-iw in
South America, is brought to us at a cheap
price.
The point to which we now ca!l attention
is that o.ir fanners and fi uit-gruwes luue
ignored, or rather lieon ignorant of, the im
portance of wood allies as a vegetable stim
ulant, and as the leading constituent of
plants. Even coal ashes, now thrown away
as UJ-oless, have b.vn !hown, lotli by experi
ment nnd analysis, to posow a fair share
of alkaline vahie. According to our ob
servation, if the practice of putting a mix
ture of coal ami wood ashes around the
steins of fruit-trees and vines, particularly
early in the Spring, was followed as a gen
eral rule, our crops of apples, giapas,
peaches, etc., would be greatly bcuclitted
iu both quality and qi:amity, und the trees
nnd ir13s would last longer. We will relate
only one experiment. Some twenty-five
years ago, wc treated nn old hollow pippin
apple-tree as follows: The hollow, to the
'height of eight 1'eet, was filled and rammed
with a compost of wood ashes, gnrden mold,
iud a little vute liaie ( curUjn-.it-). Tiiis
filling was securely fastened in by Uiards,
The next year the cr p of sound fruit was
sixteen bushels from an old siieli m" a tree
that had borne nothing of any nei-o.mt for
some time. I5:it the stranicst was what fol
lowed. For seventeen years after the filling
t'.at oM pi.vin tree euti.uieJ to iLtiriaii
and U-.-ar w..-.'I.
us call attention to still another point
of importance in fniit-rni-ing. T lis is the
liearing j ear for apph-s and li ui in general
in New England ; probably it is aiso in some
other parts. N w. when such yeirs come,
the farmers rejoice ton much at their pros
perity, nnd abuse it, as iipnily all people do
the gilts of fui tune. We should Iaj temper
ate as to the quantity of our fruit as weii as
cd our fruit j iic;-s. ly proper trimming
nnd plucking, the apple crop in liearing
years may be red.tced to but little more than
half a crop ns to number, but the improve
ment in size and price, nnd in the future
eir.-ct. will more than balance the 1s.
Next February, March, or April, according
to latitude, let the tree-trimmer -tiumlate
r.nd nourish bis trees and vines with a fair
Mipoly of ahe, and in nearly every ene be
will, have a good crop of fruit in the non
bearing year.
Stkki. Plows. A. B. Alien, of New
York, s;tys : "I would sooner pay d ulle
ttie pvice for steei plows tliau aceept as a
gift tlie cst set of" Cit-t-i.on plows to Ijo
lonnd in tlia rniteil St;ite. Tlix.ili ever
so liurd c'lillcd or smontlily polished, e:ist
iron will foul, more or ks, on tlie inol-1-honrd,
in every kind of soil, IV0111 a wundy
or gravelly up to a heavy clay loam. The
dirt thus gathered on the moid-1 100 rd adds
greatly to it draft and prevents 'loil vv rk.
Another objection to cat iron is, that, in
order to get etjiial strength, the weight must
be considerably greatvrr tiuin with stiel. and
this is a hard drag all day, nnd requires a
much stronger team. Of this any one may
qukkly convince himself without resort to
dynamoin ter or any tithcr means of testing
the dial't. He lias only to hitch a light team
to a steel plow, nnd a stronger one to the
cast iron, and work thom side by side. In
this way 1 have fo.1-.1d t'lat a pair of f ur-teen-liand
ponies would do nliout the same
work, and with as much ease to themselves,
as a pair of sixteen-hand horses. The same
observations aliotit material will also apply
to cultivator-". In thus candidly advising
my brother fanners in regard to the supe
rior mwit of std plows. I am speaking di
rectly against icy own individual interest,
for I have been a manufacturer and dealer
in cast-iron plows for upward of thirty
years past.''
Siteep and Taik Wors. -The Jlelbourne
(Australia) Leader, in relation to hydatids
in sheep, and the transformation from
thenc infr taH-worms, says :
"The annual loss if young sheep through
becoming 'cranky' is considerable, yet on
many, if not all, of the sheep stations, the
di-'case is actually propagated unwittingly.
When a cranky sheep is put out of its mis
ery, its head is divided and thrown to the
dogs in an uncooked state. Thus the hyda
tid in the sheep's brain becomes a tape-worin
in a dog. and in a very short period of time
millions of tape-worm eggs p!i.H from the
dog. and are drifted about by' the wind and
are carried by water. For weeks and months
they retain their vitality, unaffected by heat
or cold, rain or drought. Sheep, in picking
up their food, or in drinking water out of
shallow pools or crab-holes, swallow one or
more of these eggs, which get into the Hood
circulation, and thus to the brain, to form
a hydatid and make another sheep cranky.
So the sheep and dog react on each other."
Jrocs James F. Babcock, of the City
Court, New Haven, died suddenly in that
court room, from the eflfeet of a paralytic
stroke, on Thursdrry, June 18th, in the 65th
yenr of his age. Sixty years ago his father
fell from a siuiihr attack on the green,
was picked up and carried into the old court
