LABRLS. —When tree* arriv* from the ,
nursery the lalxH* are often wired no j
clone an to inj nre the bark. This should
be watched, and if a plan of the orchard
has heon made the labels may be re
moved altogether.
CLEAR Ur any weeds or rubbish
which have collected around the orchard
and fenoea daring the fall, and see that
the fenoea are repaired eo as to prevent
any stray animals from entering and in
juring the trees. A little time employ
ed in this now will often prevent hun
dreds of dollars of damages.
IIATK PKARS are to be treated in the
Ramo wuy as recommended above, ♦*-
eept thfct it is best to substitute boxes
for barrels unless one has s great quan
tity. Do not remove them to the cel
lar until there is danger of freeaing.
• The earlier sorts may be placed on
shelves in the fruit room.
CtnKR AKP VIXROA*.—The best use
for inferior fruit is to manufacture into
eider and vinegar. The best cider can
bo made at this season, as there is less
danger of rapid fermentation. Cider
made from good fruit and run through
a filter of uand may be bottled and
placed in a cool oellar, where it will
keep w IL
FRrrr.—Harvest the late varieties of
fruit before the frost becomes too severe.
If handled with care, fruit picked now
will last a long time. A cool cellar is
needed for stoi ing and keeping fruit.
Sort and place the fruit in barrels ;
head, and IST the barrel upon its side,
taking care to leave a foot at least be
tween the bsirrl and cellar wall. The
cellar should not be closed until the low
temperature outside makes it necessary.
PLAN-TWO.— If fall planting is prac
ticed the trees should oe set out at soon
ss they otn be bed, so thst they may
have tome to get established before win
ter seta in. Plow and prepare the land
so thst no delay need happen after the
trees have arrived. Do not mix the
aorta, and have a plan ef the orchard
showing the position and name of each
variety, ao that should the labels be
lost or the names be obliterated by the
weather the plan will be a sure guide to i
the variety.

Brittany are cultivated from hedge to
hedge. ' Cattle stand with their four
feet in two feet of clover. Every field
is s park. Every bam is a cow-palace.
Every nig-pca is a porcine psrsdisa
Pennsylvania is pre-eminently the
State of barns. Think of a three story <
stone barn, with a swell front and dor
mer windows in the roof, and a luxuri- •
ous portico where tha Sybaritic calves '
chew the cud of sweet contentment on
summer evening* ! And then behold
the little cabin in the rear where the :
agricultural Dutchman lives with his
" Crow," and where the children lie on
the floor and envy the happy calves in
the lattice portico. Every barn it throe j
times as large aa the house, which serves
as a sort of appendage, and, aa it were,
plays seoond fiddle to it The barn is
headquarters, and tha house is a sort
of sentry-box where the man resides
who takes care of it The tern is f
alsted, and the pig-sty is glased, the 4
chicken coops are painted, and the
worm-fences are whitewashed as far as;
you can see. I have no doubt the ;
original dweller* here whitewash the
ground for acres around the domicile
twice or thrice a year, till they learned !
its fatality.
I do not know about the effect on oat
tie of ao much petting. I should think
it would tend to make the animals
aristocratic, yet I do not knew of any
place where cattle are more stuck up
than they are in the Week There, you
know, we have no barns to apeak of.
There are townships enough in Minn*..
sots where everything with horns has
the same chance to tight for tha wans r
side of s haystack in January, and, it
most be admitted, the weaker animals
are considerably hump-backed and sub
dued in their feelings by April. More-.
over, here the farmers use fertilizers,
but in Minnesota we have an idea that
the earth is an orange to be sucked, a
goose to be plucked, a sponge to be
squeezed, a reservoir to be everlasting
ly drawn from, without in the least I
diminishing its flow. All through the '
central West they are learning, what

Iwnl Potato CS<.
There are many persons who art very j
fond of a good cap of ooffee, but who
dire not indulge in the favorite bever
age on account of the nervous excite
ment or bilious affection that follows.
To such it will be pleaaing to learn that
the new modes of evaporating fruits
and vegetables by artificial processes
have rendered it possible to ao redooe
the uncooked sweet potato, without ■■
taint, to the dry and brittle oondition
necessary for roasting and grinding aa
coffee. In this condition its useful
and economical properties are said to j
be manifold. Being very wholesome, |
aa well as exceedingly nutritions, it is j
said to be a very valuable substitute for
chicory and the indifferent article of
peas, which make no a large portion of
the mixture usually sold for "pnre 1
ground coffee." Its saccharine con-!
tents not only diminish the amount of :
sugar required, when it is naed, but ao
complete.y agglutinate and settle the '
grounds that ooffee mixed with thl.
preparation may be used aa flue aa floor
without making tha infusion muddy, 1
thus permitting doubl# the ordinary
strength to be obtained from the coffee i
itself. The ground sweet potato may ;
be mixed with one-half its balk of pare
coffee. This mixture will cost lees than
half the price of pure ooffee, and by
many is decidedly preferred as a mat- i
ter of taste. More important, however,
to those who cannot drink pure ooffee, j
is the consideration that in the sweet
potato there is no headache, no excite
ment of the nerves, and bilious afleo- i
tion.— Sacramento Record.
Ttos Drill lor Sowtog.
There is no one thing better agreed '
upon in this State, says George Geddes, >.
of New York, among winter wheat raia- .
era, that a drill not only saves seed, but .
it saves labor, covers the seed just just
at one uniform depth, and completes
the work aa it goes. The importance
of this last point is illustrated aa I write
the w lines, for since I commenced a ,
shower has set in that promises to be \
heavy. I have just left a large field, i
where our drill was sowing wheat. \
Now, we have the satisfaction of feeling ,
that however severe the shower maybe, i
and however long time may elapae be- j
fore the ground will be in oondition to |
resume work, that whenever this time t
does comes all will be square starting i
—no ground half, or not at all harrowed i
after surface sowing with a broadcast c
m achine or a man's hand. Tho objec- c
tion that Mr. D says some of his *
neighbors make to drills, that they en- 1
courage weeds, is entirely new to me. t
I have not enumerated all the ad van- ,
tsges of diilling winter wheat, suoh as %
standing the freezing and thawing of t
the ground in spring, and the protec- r
tion the wheat has, by reason of being
intrenched behind little breastworks,
affording cover in eold, windy days of
winter, when the ground haa no snow
on it to shelter the wheat. It is not t
necessary, at this late day, to go over t
this ground and oppose theories to ex- ]
perienoe. I did stand out against drills j
when they first came among us on theo- e
retical grounds ; that gave way before j
facts derived from trials that did not f
leave a vestige of my first opposition. t

An open winter is predicted, because i

away. He is conducted along unknown
Streets, byways, and winding alley*,

I, sad n* r addressed, save In sepulchral
, tones. Haviug at length ascended a
flight u# stairs. Gill ia uov led by nu
, accoanhtble wanderings ttiroagh rooms
and halls, stnmbling over oliair* scant
| ling, and pieces of wood on the floor,
' but nevercUowqd to tell, for two sturdy
knight* sra at his sides with firm hold
j of his arms. Next a rope is fastened
. around his body and he is drawn up
i into another apartment. He hears the
\ trampling of many icet shoal him, sop
, mesned whispers, and stern lieheata.
He ia utterly confused. His escorts now
let go of him, and he is compelled to
■rope alone for a while, though nevci
aaniig to stop for an instant, at the
peril of being punched and pushed and
tripped, until in his frenzy he runs
i against the wall and knocks himseli
f down.
He ia immediately seized and thrown
upon s "blanket," which ia a large can
: vas with strap handles. This is held
'by ten hardy fellows, who give it a
twitch and send him into the air as ii
he were a foot-ball. He ia "tossed iu
the blanket" until it eeesee to be fun
for the tormentors. Then he is led into
a damp place, where he is subjected to
. the process of squirting some caustic
liquid from e ayring* into hie mouth
and between the back of his neck and
t nether garments. Next, after a series
of perambulatioaa£and difficulties, he is
halted and made to take a most solemn
. oath never to divulge any of the secrets
(of the order, on penaltv of having his
heart cut out and his "limbs torn from
his body. The members stand around
l attired in deaths-head masks, and weird
and fantastic costumes, with war clubs
in their hands. A coffin rest* near by,
wide open, and hung with all th* sol
emn drapery of death. A huge green
calcium tight ia kindled, and simultane
ously with removing th* bandage from
the victim's ayes, a musket is discharg
ed, causing a fi-arfwl revert. The con
, oaasion of sound, tho hfdxtD g are, the
unesAthly and demoniac appearance of
everything around him, together with
*lll3 experience just before, ere too much
toe human nature, and Gdl swoons.
Bat they have all been in Pref. Wil
der's physiology class, end are prepared
r for such a contingency. Th* patient is
soon restored to animation.
The bandage is again placed over his
eyes, and he is laid in the coffin. Gill
; is now prepared for the last right aud
j ceremony of initiation into the noble
! order and fellowship of the Omicron
Epailon Society, namely, branding.
The operation is as follows : Th* eloth
i ing is removed from the stomach ; a
heated sbevel is brought nearly in eon
tact with the body until the "exposed
part ia heated nearly to a blister, when,
suddenly, a piece of ice is dapped ou.
At this the initiated yells outright. His
arms are now loosened. Another sharp
Et is heard. Tb* light* are extin
ed, and GiU is left in the coffin
. He rises with a wail of despair
that haa so similitude in human speech.
After shouting two or three times lor
j assistance, he see* a light faintly glim
: mering through the crevices of a door
i which leads from the room he ia in,
: whither be goes and endeavors to rash
in. But Hie door is fastened. He calls
aloud for admission to the tight. The
; door opens slowly, and he is met by
I the doer-keeper, who ushers him in and
, presents him to his new brethren of the
! fraternity.
Bnt tittle time ia spent in congratu
lations, for there are other candidates
• to be initiated, and the u#w member is
! allowed to tab* part in the farther ex
; ercisee of the night. The Delta Alpha,
I a society of this class, initiated twenty -
' five last Friday night. Some of them
j claim to have thought it fun, and are
[ trying to get others to join.

during this part of the ceremonv. It
i was at first tnought'to hush up the in
telligence of his death, but the report
getting out, the body was taken in

and revelation created the most intense

A Costly Berry-In*.
Tlie Old Colony Prca * says Henry
Abbott, of Lakevilie, a few days since,
was out for -bar-berries, and, having
filled his basket, placed it by a wall
while he went to quench his thirst at a
spring. Retnrning, he mimed his ber
ries, and just then saw crossing an ad
joining pasture, a banter whose game
bag seemed full. Abbott approached
the sportsman, asked what lack he hod
had, and reqnestod the privilege of - in
specting his gnn. The Nimrod handed
over the " shooting-iron," when Abbott,
cocking it, thundered oat, " Those ber
ries you stole will be three dollars."
The Bportsman was badly hit, and
agree* to pay. Not having the piasters
with him, Abbott retained the gun aa
security, and it was duly redeemed by
the man, who has probably lost afl
relish for barberries.

ltoatou and tho four towns surround
' ing it, which were Included in the an
nexation movement, voted upon these
ceptetice of the set. lkiaton decided
favorably for all tho applicants for an
nexation by au average vote of nearly
six thousand, tho opposition vote av
oraging about fifteen hundred. Oharlea
towu, Brighton and West Koxbury
polled large votes also in favor of an
nexation. Brook lino ret naed to be ab
sorbed by Boston. Brighton and West
Roxbury" becoming a part of Boston,
Brookhue ts placed in an awkward geo
graphical poaitinn. Touching tho
Oberiea Hiver and the weat ante of the
Back Bay it completely separates Brigh
ton froni Boston, while Brighten cu the
north and Weat Hoxbury on the aouth
almost surround Brook line.
Oharleatowu, Brighton and Weat
Kosbunr Will become a pait of Boaton
on the first of January next. Charles
town is, probably, iu area, one of the
smallest eitir* in the world, for, not
withstanding ita douse population, it
haa lean than thirtv-three thousand in
habitants. Weat Koxbury and Brigh
ton are beautiful towns, with pouula
tious respectively of about ten and five
thousand, lty tho addition of these
places Boaton will have a population of
more than threa hundred thousand.
But tiie gain to tho city, say* the
New York turning JPotf, is 'much great
er in commercial and political ml van
-1 tage thai in population, By absorb
ing Charleatowu it gains entire control
of the heritor, thus M> tiling many quea
tioua of jurisdiction which in tunes past
have canned needless delays and. ex
pense. Beside* this, it obtains a new
and admirable water-supply, which
C'harleatown has provided for, with
very little additional coat, and this is
one*of the neoeaaiUea of Boston's fire
department aa well aa ite manufactories.
By the union of Brighton, Boston will
coutrol the great stoek-yarda and
slaughter-house*. extend its jurisdic
tion over the Charles Hirer, and be
I tbU, therefore, to make important sani
tary and commercial improvements. Bv
the" uuion with Weet Koxbury it will
obtain the deaired territory for parka,
which are ao much needed by the city,
and the influence of a class of voters
who wiU five a better toue to city poli
tic*. On the whole, Boston will be
largely the gainer by taking in all these
towns.
The Battle of Business.
Heuiy Ward Bcecher lectured in
Music Ball, Boston, on the " Baltic of
Buswcte." He gave It as the result of
bia observation thst so other oceupa
tion made such demands on the nervous
energy of men, was to beeet with in
ducement* to dishonesty, aa mercantile
life. Hie fault is not that men do not
want to be honest, but that the majori
ty of them do not know how to lie.
flier think it is all right to do aa oth
ers fio; or, mosa likely, they imi tat*
! without thinking at all of the moral
quality of the act.
Mr. Beecher was especially severe on
stock gamblers, saving thst they de
served the halter if any criminals did.
The only consolation in reviewing the
career at those men was the assurance
that few of them kept their ill-gotten
wealth long. He had lived to sec six
or eight Kiufp of Wall stcoat l*th coz
ed. In the strife of business men re
gard only the end, and no not scruple
much about the means. If it seems
, nsoemarv to buy a leg 'stature to insure
the prosperity of their aoheues they
buy one. All the great corporations
know the price of the old members of a
legislature, and quiokiv find out what
the new ones can be had for. The
men who are bought th* esi.iest ever—
the cheapest—are tlie farmers, not be
j cause they are in fact nmre venal, but
because in their simplicity they are
compromised and involved before they
' know it. The lawyers and merchants,
more accustomed to the art* of schem
ers, are more wary. They have to be
fished for more patiently, and are only
secured at a large expense.
Speaking of the power of the groat
• corporations of the country, Mr.
Beeoher declared that if the New York
Central, Erie and Pennsylvania Cen
tral Companies should conspire to do
it, they conld elect the President of
the United States. This was the first

A Family Club House.
j Mr:-. King, at a lata meeting ot the
British AaaooMtion at Bradford, Lng
t land, gave an idea of what she calls co
' operative bonnes in which s number of
i families should live together in sep
i ante anartm<-ute, and have their cook
ing, cleaning, and other household
work done by one staff of servant*.
So far, the design differs little from the
present well-known arrangement of the
apartment houses. But Mrs. King goes
; trifle further. Iu her new plan abe
i proposes to consult the welfare uot only
1 ot the housekeeper, but of tho servant
| M well. Servants, she thinks, in mod
j ern civilized society are little better
I than slaves, and in the present organ
t nation of the housebote are not only
t obliged t* work mtrah too hanl, but are
i denied their fair share of the social en
, joymeuta and amenities that make life
' tolerable. So, in her co-operative *yt>-
' tern, the servants are to come in relays,
i one art from 6 in the morning till 1 or
, 2 o'clock in the afternoon, another com
ing in then and remaining till 9or 10
in the evening, when they are replaced
by one or two " night guardians," who
take charge of the boose until the fol
lowing morning. Each family in the
. bouse would thus have the advantage
of a large and well-drilled staff of ser
vant*, for lees than the present expense
l of keeping one or two; and a large
i number of girls, well qualified for the
' purpose, who are no willing to go into ser
vice permanently or to give up their
' own nomes and families, might be set
free to undertake this daily work.
Cheap Substitute for Double Windows.
It is suggested by Dr. Oldtmnnn, in
' a pamphlet on the care of health,
i simply to add a seoond set of panes of
glass, set in an inner rabbet, to a single
sash, and thus inclose a stratum of dry
air, about 0.2 to 0.4 ot an inch thick.
The excess of cost, it is said, will be
more than covered by the economy of
i fuel ia winter; and at 90 degrees, in
summer, a room thus protected will re
j main nine degrees oooler than when
. supplied with ordinary windows. The
plan is also advantageous for hot-beds,
etc. A good hard quality of glass, that
does not become dull by decomposition,
must bo selected, especially for a
southern exposure, since the interior
faces can not be cleaned. It is neces
sary also that the glass should he per
fectly polished, and not be soiled in
I putting it in, but, since the air in*
closed ought to be dry, the glazing
1 should be clone when the air is in the
best condition iu that respect. Ice
crystals, of course, oan never form on
1 such windows.

Pomefloy, in Kansas, was elected to

attending the settlement of Kansas, aa
a member of the first Legislature, as
Chief Justice of tla- Supreme Court,
under the Topeka Convention, and as
President of the Leavenworth Consti
tutional Convention in 18A0. He was a

that MeGook'a language waa luaultiug

The Old Story.
Aa to the causes that led to the fall
of Phelps, the defaulting New York
State officer, or hia methods of opera
tion in euibexaltug the funds of the
State, or the disposition made of the
stolen money, the prisoner declines at
present to give any information. There
ta no doubt, however, from the hints
let fall during hie interview with a cor
respondent that he waa tempted to use
the publie money ia the hope of be
coming speedilv rich by speenbdiona in
Wall street. It waa "the same old
story" aa he remarked when this id.-a
waa suggested aa being the cause of hia
defalcation. That he had aocomplioe*
i ta beyond a doubt, and they have proba
bly profited by his peculations, while
he has not received a dollar of pecuniary
benefit. It has been hinted that the
men moat guilty are yet in the beak
ereuud, and it ta not improbable that
fact# may yet oomo to light that will
i *1*11!* the public.
The Tribune correspondent aacer
! tained from persona in Albany that
Phelps had several years age, probably
at the time he waa in partnership with
Milo Hatch, lost all he waa worth in
stoek speculations in Wall street. He
has often been heard to say that he had
had enough of stock speculations, and
shonld never make another venture in
that line. It seems, however, that the
temptation was too strong for hia reso

had gone up frequently; was accounted
courageous and ssgscions in his bad

esteemed. He had s very pretty wife,
to whom he was devotedly attached.
As frequently happens, she did not

soon learned to his sorrow. He adver

the time named, all was prepared. Hia
Wife was in the enclosnre, and jnst be

her and kissed her touderlv, saying that
he hoped Heaven wonltl make her

The prices range from 875 for an ngly,

to $5,000, which few would tie likely to
psy. Those at 8500 and #6OO ore very
handsome, fine and soft, and more fre
quently bought than suy other grade.
Camel H hair scarfs, for which there is
little sale, can be had at from $5 to
SIOO. They are ordinarily worn mantle
fashion, and are sometimes employed
for sashes. The superb French cash
mere shawls, handsome ae their India
rivals, come in similar designs and
equally beautiful oolors; but they are
woven, instead of being made by hand;
and they will not bear audi liara usage.

Among the most attractive shawls of
cheaper grades are the Ottoman reps,
which, notwithstanding their Eastern
name, are of Bcotch origin. They vary
all the way from $8.50 to S3O, present

To Cure Lockjaw.
A Tennessee writer says: T# cure
lockjaw or tetanua from the wound, yon
should open the wonnd with a sharp
knife, ana inject the wound six or eight
times a day with a strong. warm decoc
tion of tobacco. I have known thin to
core several badly wounded animals in
Sumner county suffering from lockjaw,
and every person who owns a horse or
other stock ought to buy a good book
on farriery, and ho will save money by
it. I have saved one thousand dollars
by using Mason's Farrier and his reme
dies.

Life on * Prison Ship.
A MsutlulsesMee of lit* It* volmluuai >
War.
A description of life ou board the
i " Jersey " pffioti ship during the Revo
i lutioiiarv War, is a fair sample ef the
i life uf the prisoners an board of the
rest; fur, although the Jersey baa
gained a bad pre-uutiueuoo aa a prison
I ship, which Would naturally lead mauy
to suppose that her prisoners alone were
subjected to suffering and privation, the
testimony of those eoufinetl in the other
vessels prove clearly that their treat
ment was everywhere the saute. The
only difference lay iu the fast that the
Jersey waa larger titan the others, and
continued in the service longer. Of all
, the vessels so used as prisons, the Jersey
gained the gieatest notoriety, her name
, atrtking terror to the heart of every
American sailor. Originally a 64 gun
ship, condemned ae unfit for service,
| she had lieeu stripped of apara and rig
giug, and anchored at Wallabout as a
store-ship, and for want of other prison
1 accommodation# subsequently oouvert
ed to s prison house, as were also the
Good Hope, Gooti Intent, Hunter, Fal
mouth, Bristol, and others. Ou board
the Jersey the crew consisted of a oap
taiu, two mates, a steward, oook, and a
duaeu sailors, with s guard of twelve
marines and about thirty aoldiers. A
prisoner on being brought ou board waa
t questioned ae to hie name and rank,
! which were registered, after which he
j was searched for wcepoua and niouey.
Msny were the devioes resorted to by
the pnsoucr in order to retain a portion
| if not the whole of the money iu his
possession, for he well knew that if onoe
placed in the keeping of bis jailers that
was the last of it as far as he was con
cerned, while a small portion saved
might eventually be of great service to
hint in obtaiuing favor from his guards.
Clothing and bedding they were per
mitted to retain, and however scanty
they might be, no more waa supplied
while uu board the prison-ship.
He would tm then ordered down into
the hold, where from a thousand to
twelve hundred men were congregated,
covered with rags and filth, and ghastly
from breathing the pestilential air ;
many sick with typhus fever, dysentery
and small-pox, from which the vessel
was never free. The prisoners were
divided into masses of six each, who,
every morning at the ringing of the
steward's bell received their daily al
! luwaaoe of pork or beef, peas and bis
cuit, to which butter, suet, oatmeal and
flour were occasionally added, but there
being only one fire-place to cook the
food of such a number, the latter deli
csalt's were frequently of no avail as
food.
The allowances were frequently de
layed, the steward not Imginuing to
serve oat the rations nntil 11 A. u., so
that the whole oould not be served nntil
late in the afterneon. At sunset the
tire waa ordered to be quenched, and
those that had not their food dressed
' by that time were obliged eitber to eat
it raw or go hungry. Article* suited to
, the condition of infirm |*eople were
never allowed to the rnauy nick. al
though the offiot-ra and crew had them
!in profusion. The prisoners were con
fined in the two lower maindecks, the
lower dungeon being filled with for
eigners, who were treated with even
more inhumanity than the Americana.
Every uurniug the prisoners were
greeted with the ciy of " Rebels, turn
out your dead I" The order waa obeyed,
aud the bodtea of those who had died
during the night were brought up upon
the deck and placed upon the gratings.
If the deceased had owned A blanket,
any prisoner waa at liberty to sew it
around the corpse, after which it waa
aent on ahure to be plaoed in the oom
mon ditch with thoee of the day pre
vious.
The prisoner* were allowed upon
deck in squads until aunaet, when Uiey
were sainted with the insulting cry of
" Down, rebels, down !"
When the order of " Down, rebels,
down !" had been obeyed, the maun
hatch waa closed, leaving a small trap
door, large enough for one man to
ascend it at a time, over which a sen
tinel waa placed, with orders to permit
but one man to come up at a time at
night Those aeutinela were often
guilty of the most wanton cruelty. One
night while tit* prisoners were huddled
about the grate of the hatchway to ob
tain fresh air, awaiting their turn to
go on deck, the sentinel thrust his
bayonet among them, killing twenty
five of their number, which outrage, to
a leaser extent, waa frequently repeated.
Prisoners, constantly seeking to escape,
cherished life that they might one day
take vengeance for their sufferings.
" Two young men, brothers, belonging
to a riff# corps," says the author of the
Life of Miles Talbot, " were made
prisoners, and eent en hoard the Jersey.
The elder took the fever and became
delirious. Oue night, as Ins end waa
fast approaching, fie became calm and
sensible, and, lamenting his bard fate
and the absence of his mother, bogged
for a little water. His brother, with
tears, entreated the guard to give him
some, but all in vain. The aick youth
was soon in bis last struggles, when the
brother offered the guard a guinea for
an inch of a candle only that be might
have light to see him die. Even thie
was refused. 'Now,* said lie, drying
his tcAra, ' if it pleaae Ood that I ever
regain my liberty, I'll be a moat bitter
enemy.' He regained his liberty, re
joined the army, and wben the war
ended, he had eight large and one hun
dred and twenty-aeveu small netchea
on hia rifle-stock.
Bat in spite of tall their severity and
watchfulness, escapes ware frequent,
and a whole mesa would sometimes be
fonndmiaaingwithontthe slightest indi
: cation of their departure, fur the spirit of
Yankee adventure waa not wanting eTcn
in those floating dena of pestilence and
famine. One day the Jersey's prison
ers aecretely obtained a crowbar, which
they artfully concealed and used on
, windy and stormy nights to break off
the post gratinga, when good swimmer*
who poescased sufficient strength to un
dertake the task would quietly drop in
to the water and make their way to the
shore. Numbers escaped in this way to
tell tlieir friends the sad atorv of their
sufferings and reveal the sadder fact of
the numbers who had died. In Decem
ber, 1780, a daring and successful es
cape was made frem the Jersey by four
Yankee captains. The liest luat of the
' ship had returned from New York about
' 4 o clock in the afternoon, and waa care
lessly fastened at the gangway, with the
oara on board. A storm prevailed, and
the wind blowing down the river pro
duced an immense tide. At a given sig
nal a party of the prisoners placed them
selves carelessly between the ship's
waist and the sentinel while the four
captains entered the boat, the fasten
ings of which were slipped by their
friends. The boat passed cloae under
the bow of the ahip, and waa at a con
siderable distance from her before the
sentinel at the forecastle gave the alarm
and fired at her. The second boat waa
manned with much dispatch forachaae,
but she pursued in vaiu. Shots were
fired from the ship and shore without
effect, the boat passing Hell-Gate in the
evening and arriving atConnectiont the
next morning.
In 1780, when the prisoners on board
the Good Hope burnt the vessel in the
desperate hope of regaining their liber
ty, the chief incendiaries were removed
to the Provost, and the remainder trans
ferred to the Jersey, which was used as
a prison ahip until the Jcloso the war,
when her inmates were liberated, and
she was henceforth ah tinned by all as a
nest of pestilence. The worms aoon
after destroyed her bottom, and site
sunk, bearing with her on her plaoka
the names of thousands of American
prisoners. For more than twenty years
her ribs lay exposed at low water, and
she now lies buried beneath the United
States Navy Yard.
An enterprising rustic had n cow to
sell lately, aud a purchaser made an ap
pointment to com# and see her. The j
fanner arranged that his man shonld be
milking the cow when the purchaser ar
rived, and had three pails on hand, each
half filled with water. The man milk
ed vigorously and filled the three pails ,
one after another, to the astonishment
of the purchaser, who at once closed
the bargain at a very high figure,
The Ureal inftiil Hurrtrßß*.
The Mignal Office at Waahington baa
compiled tha report# of the tremendous
etorui of Angait 14, and it praaanU a
truly frightful exhibit. Tha report ia

thousand ami thirty-two vessel* known
to have been destroyed during tha 'i4th
and 2Mb of August in tha Gulf of Bt.
Lawrence and around tlia coast* of
Nova Beotia, Gape Breton and New
fouudlaud. Niuely additional vaaaela
were overwhelmed in the aatua tempest
before it reached Nova Beotia, while
•ix hundred liven were lost and nine
hundred buildings injured or dwaol
ished by its force. The misery and
ruin eutailed on thousands or New
England ami Canadian fiahermeu and
seamen by this aiugle gale are almost
incalculable, and they afford strong in
ducements for the extension of the Mig
uel Hervice warnings to Canadian ports.
Could the vaat fleets of merchant ves
sels that tliroflg the waters in which the
August storm spent its fatal fury have
had premonition of ite approach the
majority might have eaceped, and many
Uvea and much of the ehippiof have

had originated iu much lower latitude#
than thoee of Nova Hootia, and speed
ing on ita way from the tropica north
ward, overs wept the sngulsr projection
of tile Continent of which Novs Beotia,
Cape Breton and Newfoundland are the
outlying islands. The premonishing of
such gales, which strike from the At

securing the earliest intelligence from
vessels arriving at the Atlantic ports
and using them for purposes meteoro
logical pmlictious. The new arrange
