POTATO KS. —An Indiana correspondent of The Journal qj' the farm says ho saved labor by dropping his potato in every third fnirow nail tovtmng them by the next passage of the plow. Nothing more was done until the tojs were about ready to appear aln*ve the imrface. a hen the ground was thoroughly mellowed (and the weeds and grase all killed) by the use of a peavy two-horse harrow. There was a little- subsequent cultivation and a little during of Paris green, and when harvest (hoe came there was an excellant yield despite drought and Col orado bogs, and the fact that the potato crop in that neighborhood was generally a failure. The only drawback was a lit tle extra trouble in digging, which was owing to the eitrn depth at which seeds were plao-d. A Coun Cofssr lor mending earthen ware, says a recent English work, reck oned a great secret among workmen, is marie by grating a pound of old cheese, with a bread jffirter, into a quart of milk, in which it must T>e k-ft for a period of fourteen hours. It should t>e stirred Suite often. A pound of unslaked lime, nely pulverised in a mortar, is then ad ded. and the whole is thoroughly mixed by beating. This done, the widths of 25 eggs are incorporated with the rest, and the- whole is ready Lor rise. There is an other cement fur the same purpose which is used hot. It is made of resin, beeswax, brick-dust, and chalk boik-d together. The sabstance#lb be cemented must be heated, and when tbe surfaces are coated with cement, they most be rubbed hard upon each otlpr, as in making a glue joint with wood. STAGGERS IS^PICS. —"D. WT.

Either the feeder, butcher or ceusfhner is cheated, and as a general thing every one who ho* any thing to do with the.Jbig hog will find, if he observes closely. th;t they are not so profitable as the smooth, nice bogs of only 350 pounds weight.

A GUANO SIUUT. —The solemnities aud festivities of Holy Week at Home are or dinarily terminated by what most visitors regard as the grandest spectacle of all, and by what certainly is, as a pyrotech nic display, without a parallel in the world. The American Fourth of July fades Into insignificance when compared with the illumination of St. Peter's. All the lines of the vast facade of the church— the roof, the ribs of the stopendous dome, the form of the lauteru, and 'he crosssur moonting all—are trace*! out with rows of lamps or lanterns ; and as the golden light of an Italian sunset fades away, and the purple shadows of evening settle over the city, tlu-so are lighted, coming out like stars in heaven, until the whole struc ture Mazes like a constellation. Every ar chitectural line, every colli nn. cornice, capital, every arch and entablature, are pricked out iu tire against the sky. Fire works of the most brilliant description are set off al<> from the neighboring cas tle of St. Angeloon Easter Monday night. It is difficult for any description to sug gest the magnificence of the spectacle of the illumination of St. Peter's, because words cannot depict to the imagination the easiness of the edifice that is thus etbcreali/ed in light, and which seen from a distance, seems to stand, or rather to hang over the city above which it towers, "shining and glittering in the calin night like a jewel."

At each beat a little over two ounces of blood is thrown out of if ; and each day it receives and dis charges about seven tons of that wonder ful fluid. Your luugs will contain a gul lon of air, and you inhale 24.(W0 gallons per dav. The aggregate surface of the air-cells of your lungs, supposing flicm to Is- spread out, exceeds 20,000 square inches. The weight of your brum is three pouuds ; when von area man it will weigh about < ight ounces more. Your nerves exceed 10,000,000 in num ber. Your skin is composed of three layers, and varies from one-fourth to one-eighth of an inch in thickness. The area of your skin la about 1,700 square inches. Each square contains .'5..V10 sweating tubes or perspiratory pores, each of which may be likened to a little drain-tile one-fourth of an inch long, making nn aggregate length of the. entire surface of your body of 201, l(">6 feetj- or a tile ditch"for draining the body almost 40 miles long. IsoEsriTY OF AxniAL*.—One of the largest of ferocious animals in South America is the jaguar—a native tiger— felit Qnca. Besides being large and im mensely strong, it practice* extraordinary strategic schemes in procuring food, which indicate something above mere instinct, because circumstances are constantly re quiring some variations in their foraging expeditions for prey. Humboldt snys when they find a turtle they adroitly turn it over on its back. It is, then, helpless, and totally unable to ofter resistance in that condition. With the most cruel man ifestation of feline character, the jaguar then leisurely gnaws out the quivering flesh from between the shell and cara pace. Another f the jaguar's reasoning inanmuverings is to quietly follow the margin of stream*. At the sight of a fish near enough to he approached, with a quick dash of its paw the game is thrown high and dry above the bank. Fortunate ly for the country, the jaguar lias a match in the great serpents that infest tropical America. In the twinkling of an eye one of those monster* winds himself round his body, and crushes out life and crack* the bones into fragments at the same mo ment.

It is, of course, oftentimes very difficult to decide, in any given eaae, whether any marked peculiarity is the result of a very active and one sided development of the brain, or of actual disease. The general principal on which our decisions must IK based is, that when any feeling, passion, emotion, or even a special aptitude be [J comes absolutely ungovernable, so a* to make its subject regardless of his own in terests, or of the well-being of his friends, when, as it were, it absorbs the whole be ing, so as to destroy what we call com mon sense, blunts the reason and con science, and urge* on to a manner of life and to special deeds that are repugnant to the average intuition of mankind, then we have reason to suspect the existence of disease id the brnin.
