TP famous foreelain Tourer, lhc ctlcbraieil Porcelain Tower jar Xating, China, is tlescriwd by a .ravt-Ur, who says : In the quirt evening we made our way out of the city by the south gate through a well constructed tunnel, and shortly stood ujon an eminence wboe surface was a mass of debris consisting of btoicon bricks, tiles, and plaster several feet thick This was all all that was kft ofthat which, for its his torical beauty, the ingenuity of its con struction and its great cost, took rank with the wonders of the world the famous Porcelain Tower. It must Lave Wen very beautiful iu its perfect ion, if wc accept the statements of its various historians, who differ so little in their account that one does for all. From them we learn its form was octa gonal, nine stoiies high, tapering as it rose to '.he height of i 3 1 feet from the ground, the circumference of the lower Btorv In ing 120 feet. The body of the pagoda was ci brick, but its fa'je was composed of porcelain tilts of many colors. Kach Ptory formed a kind of saloon, through which ran the spiral staircase leading to the summit, and whose walls were covered with small gilded idols resting in nic!n-,. the entire apartment richly pain'.ed and gilded. Each story was defined by a projecting cornice of green tl.'os, from whose points gilded bells were hur.j. The roof was laid with copper, and above rose a iua-t thirty feet high, ; Capped by a golden ball and coiled aIout by an immense band of iron, np- peaking like rings from below, The I base of this shaft was an iron ball 1 formed of two halves, the outer surface of which is magnificently embossed. I say is, fur one half rests where it I fell, the only t .iisible thing in the ni of luins. The other half, weigh- ; ing twelve tons, being broken by the ! full, was recast into the temple bell. j Standing lef re the halt which is j left, vie query who were they that ! faM i r.ed this beautiful casting worthy of a ina-ter ? Whose skill was great ! e nough in A. IV 14.!' to place a" bell ! of iron thirty -six fevt in circumfeience, : weighing twentv-four tons, upon a ' pedestal 2'il feet high? This ball' was the receptacle for various treasures 1 calculated to ward off evil influences ' anion.: which were "night shiuing jo- ; Wels," pearls, books, gold, silver, tliou b.uk!s of strings of cash, satin, silk, ' and j iioelcss medicines. The number of bells on the struct- ure was 1.V2, aixl the interior was il- ; luminated bv several hundred lamps ! while the exteiior rt'ipiired '2 to ! light it It took nineteen vears to 1 build, it, and cost $3,3 13,078.' Of all this, not one stoiy rests on the other, lightning, fire and war have laid their hands upon it and it f ll, its ' fmrd ites' rovers being the Taeping re 1 ht Is about twenty years ago. It stood ' in the grounds of a Iluddhist monas tery, which fell at the same time a prey to the fanaticism and rapacity of the invaders. One work of art within the grounds escaped the destruction a pure white marble toitoise, bearing : upon his back a perpendicular tablet with an inscription. This with one solitary priest keeps watch and ward over tb,. iiin; 0l'" bygone glory. A HO I T ay.

Tin is used for various purpose other than fo. Utittaunia ware. The fine black cloths -ve get from France nre colored by a solution of tin. The most beautiful red colors in carpets nre made by a chemical process which requires pure tin in the composition.

S., Professor of Geology at the Royal School of up on the farm, nothing should be ne Mines, gave the M ouday lecture at 1 glected pertaining to farm life, to the London Institution, his subject being the formation of the Swiss Alps, ' The results of geological observations , are, as the lecturer pointed out, that ! four stages can be recognized in the ! history of these Alps. First, the ex- ' istence of a line of weakness in the ' earth's crust nearly coincident with the line of the present mountains, ' This is evidenced by the fact that along this line of weakness there were volcanic outbursts, the results of which can still be traced. Secondly, there followed along this line of weak- ness a depression, and in this huge "trough" of miles in extent there were accumulated sands, limestones, and ,1 n ..i. i-,,- ,-n.-;na iVvvmc -.f n-frr ntrcn. ' Vilify' ivwivl..-. " i.v..--.. J c;e3 ani )v animals livin" in the waters, - Thirdly there followeel the consolida- tion of these soft and loose materials, There is evidence that the accumula- tion was of from six to seven miles in thickness, and the mere weight of the superincumbent material on the lower strata would have a share in effecting consolidation. But thi3 was not all. Under this vast covering heat has led to crystallization from fusion. There , was, too, the crushing in from the sides of the trough. This was illus- trated by a model of the late Sir II. la Ceche, where lateral pressure was cm- ployed on layers of different colored cloth showing how crumpling resulted - with uplifting of parts of tbo accumu- latod mass. Fourthly, there had been of your experience and criticism. Fin the sculpturing of all this into the pre- ally, cause thorn bypleasant sur round sent form, which was the work of rains ings to grow day by clay more in love and frosts. 'ome of the existing with home and the duties belonging to peaks, even 3,000 feet high, were com- their glorious occupation, and there is posed entirely of the disintegrated no doubt but that they Till stick to material lesulting from the action of the farm and make farming a great water, either as ice in glaciers or as success. rain and streams. The amount of ma- , terial remove! in this way was so stu pendous it was almost staggering to try to grasp the facts. The sculptur . ing of the contours is still going on This fourth stage was of quite recent date, speaking geologically ; but the whole history involved a lapse of time which at the beginning of this century philosophers would not have been pre pared to grant, even if this since ac quired knowledge of facts had been ! presented to them. I Orn Fashion in Shoes. A groat beau of the time of William Kuftis, i called Robert the Horned, wore shoes i with long sharp points, stuffed with i tow and twisted in a spiral form. This fashion took the fancy of the , people of that day immensely, and ihe points went on increasing vearlv until r""" v - , the reian of Uichard II"when they of struction to the thistles thorough had to be tied to the kneos of the 5-v intermixing the decayed vegetable wearer to save him from being incum bered in "rvalkin?. i ' This tying, or fastening, in the case ; of gentlemen, was by chains of silver ' or silver gilt. In Chaucer's time the upper pait of these shoes were cut to 1 imitate a church window. The rank : of the wearer in those days was known , by the length of his poulaines. "The nun,"' says I'aradin, "woie them with a point before half a foot long ; the richer and more einiiicnt personages wee them a foot, and prin ces two feet long." Hy an aetof the reign of Edward IV., the absurd lengths to which these points had attained was limited and no one under the rank of a lord was to wear shoes more than ten inches long and all cobblers making them were lo bo fined rind cursed by the clergy. .-17 the Tear Around. . . . Men- aniVomen in thf. World. Summarizing from the census of 1S70 the Journal f Commerce answers a question of the relative numbers of the sexes thus : Of the SS.oaS.ST 1 persons in the United Slates, accord ing to th;- last national census (this was m 170 ; there a-e over 43.000, . 000 now), 10,4?;., 503 were males, and ; 19,0i4,O(M were females, or (MZ woman to 1,000 men. No census of the world : has been taken, but wc have the pro ' portion of woman to men in all conn , tries where an enumeration has been mado. The highest in Europe is Scot ; land, which has l,09o woman to 1,000 ' men. Ireland has 1,050 ; England and Wales, 1,0."4 ; France has 1,007 ; : Old Trussia, 1,030. The lowest in ' ; Europe is Greece, which has but 040 ' women to 1,000 men. The total of nil Europe is 1,021 women to 1,000 ; men ; the total of America, 980 wo- 1 men to 1,000 men ; the total of Africa 1 so lar as known. !o women to 1,000 men ; of Asia (including only Ilong i Kong in China), 9i0 woman to 1,000 ! ; men; Australasia, 9S4 women to 1,000 men. . . - w A cORREsroNDF.NT mentions a source ' 'ftncr 'n ',e usc of kerosene lamps' , which .seems to have been generally j overlooked, namelyhc habit of allow- ' ing lamps to stand near hot stoves, or ' mantlepiec.es, and in other places : where they become heated sufficiently ; to invert the oil into gas.

To Make Hoys Good farmers. To parents who have boys growing make them good farmers. A half way farmer, like an ill instructed mechanic, or indolent shopkeeper, never does much good. From the first, boys on the farm should be induced to take an interest in the farm, in the stock in the imple- mcnts, and in all that pertains to the business. Tell them all your plans, your successes and failures ; give them a history of your life and what you ; did, and how you lived when a boy ; ! but do not harp too much on the tie- generate character of 3-oung men of j the present age. Praise them when ; .you can, and encourage them to do better. Let them dress up in the eve- ; nino- instp.-ii of sittinT down in their f --- , - ' dntv clothes, as is too often tue case. : " . . . , , 1 1 rovule warm and nicely iurnisneu , sitting rooms, with brilliant lights. : Thanks to kerosene, our country ! homes can be as brilliantly lighted as , the gas lit residences in the city. En- ! courage the neighbors to drop in fre- quently of evenings for a social chat, j Talk agriculture rather than politics ; j speak of the importance of large crops, ! of good stock, of liberal feeding, and j of the advantage of making animals comfortable, rather than of the hard : times, low pi ices and high wages. ,1 Above all encourage the boys to read good agricultural papers and books. ! Provide these without stint; read with them, arm give them the benefit . Canada Thistles. A successful cultivator of several hundred acres, whom we recently met, saj'S an ex change and whose uniformly heavy crops show that he does not often make mistakes in cultivation, con fidently asserts that a heavy crop of Canada thistles is of more value to him as a fertilizer, when plowed under, than a crop of clover. He would tlieie fore give more for land densely covered with thistles than if entirely free from them. lie thinks the draw largely from the atmosphere while growing. The crop is allowed to grow early in summer till near the period of blossom ing. It is then ploughed under, tak ing care that every plant is covered. Three additional ploughings at inter vals through the season, to keep the ! matter with the soil, and reducing the whole to so excellent a degree of pul verization, that the cost of the plough ing is more than repaid by the condi tion of the land for autumn sown wheat or other crops.
