Farm, Harden and Household. Farm Kates. Sour apples are said to bo as good for bogs or cows as sweet ones. It is not the sugar merely that they contaiu, but the starch, mucilage, and other matters—to say nothing of their hy gienic effect*, which make them useful food for annuals. Tiiey will not alone fatten, but they will assist in this pro cess, and if fed with caution may be made profitable. When ripe they may, as A matter of course, be safely giveu iu larger quantities than when imma ture.

Many of them make it a secondary business, giving their chief attention to hunting buffaloes. John Burton, Woodside, Fenn., writes: 1 see an inquiry by J.

We have u*ed them for years, gathering theui in their green state for that purpose, Smrlns Ihi Uu.knhctl Imp. A correspondent of the Utica iN. Y.) lit raid gives the following valuable hints: Consult any exper euced miller, and be will tell yon that the one great fault with bnekwueat is its grit idust or ground I. Tli is it gets by lying on the ground or in swaths, the nous spatter ing the dust against it. This should be avoided, as it hurts both buckwheat and the flour. Cnt and immediately set np in loose tnubounJl sheaves, tied at the top to give it the form of a cone, so as to shed the rain. In this way the air will circulate through, prevent monlding, and yet not dry so fast but the berry will have a chance to mature and ripen, for it is to be cut when pait of the crop is yet in the dough—the largest part—and some still less ad vanced. If left till all is ripe, the crop will be late, and. if heavy, will be twi-ted and lodged, and much of it will shell in harvesting. A clear, sound crop is what is wanted, and not a dusty one, with the late kernels dried instead of ronuding ent and maturing, as they will if put np in sheaves as so u as cnt. l>o not, ia any ease, leave it lying on the ground, and cut early, when the greater part of the grains are in the doughy Padnrlsg Xcsdswi. The views of "A Pennsylvania Farmer " in the Tribunr, on pasturing meadow*,axe as follows : In order to secure a large crop of grass next vear, meadows as a general thing shonlcl not be pastured in the fall, and if possible a top-dressing should be applied, so that the grass roots may be strengthen ed and the aftermath act as a mulch for winter protection. The aftermath will also hold the drifting snows to a cer tain extent, and protect from the cold drying winds of March. It will then de*y and furnish a cheap and MMl lent manure. This is nature s system of manuring. Where a good crop of grass can be cut by September Ist, 1 do so, and then top-dress immediately after; but where the growth is not sufficient to warrant that, I leave it npon the ground. The poor, thin spots now show very plainly and must have a top dressing before winter. The temptation to pasture meadows is great, bnt ought to be resisted. New meadows seeded upon grain should on no acconat be grazed, for the roots grow in proportion to the tops, and strong roots will give a large crop of hay next year. Profit In Haop Pole*. A very profitable use mav be mode of rough tracts of land by planting them jnst now with white-oak acorn* or hickory cuts. If these are planted in rows four feet apart abd eighteen to twenty-four inches apart in the rows, 5,000 to 7,00u poles may be grown to an aroe. If each alternate pole is cut at four years old there will be a crop of about 3,000 poles fit for firkin hoops, and worth sls a thonsand on the gronnd. If the poles are cut in the winter time the stumps will sprout again, and by the time those that have been left are large enough for barrel hoops, these will be large enough to occupy the gronnd nntii the others have grown again. In this way there will be a crop ready to cnt every four years worth at least $45 to SSO per acre. The second growth will be more rapid than the first, as the roots will have become strong and fully grown. A large number of bcop poles are cut in this neighborhood every year, and thousands of barren acres might thus be made profitable. Reversing Ute Engine. Railroad accidents are not more fre quent in England than in this country, bnt the trains usually rnn at a much higher speed, and the weather is more frequently dark and foggy, so that the sense of danger is far greater there than here. An engine-driver on an English railway thus recounts his experience : " Engine-driving is trying work such weather as to night, sir," said Johnny, wiping the perspiration off bis face with his sleeve, " when you cannot see your signal light, or even yonr smoke stack, and yon have to rnn like mad on a b d track to make np time, so ns not to lose connection." "I tell you, it makes a man hot if he's as cold as a lump of ice. Yon have to go it blind. Yon can't see if the switch ings are right- If trains yon are to pass have got into the side-track, you can't make out anything till you are into it. It is trying work on the mind sir, is driving an engine. Such as us get very little sleep. The other night my wife started np in bed and screamed as if she was being murdered. " ' What are you doing ?' she cried, and bless your life, sir, there was I, palling her slender arm with all my might, while my foot was steadied Bgainßt the bottom of the bed. I was trying to reverse the engine." Their Strength. The power of growing vegetables, even the most fragile, is something lit tle short of woudcrfnl. Bo delicate a structure as the mushroom can, under certain circumstandl-s, exert the most extraordinary power, for, according to a good authority, it is well known that a mushroom will " lift a paving stone many times its own weight, rather than turn over and grow sideways, which it would appear so mnch easier for it to do." The fact is also a enrioos one, that tree roots will throw over im mensely strong walls against which they have grown, though one would think the pressure against the softer soil would give room for their develop ment, without the necessity of their ex tending so much foroe against the wall. A TEST CASE.— Four passengers on the Erie railway from New York were obliged to stand nearly half of the way to Paterson, and in consequence re fused to give up their tickets to the conductor unless he furnished them with seats. After thev were seated they insisted that they should not pay their fare for the time in whioh they were obligud to stand. The conductor refused to acoede to this proposition and put the passengers who refnsed from the train. As a test case one of the passengers has sued the Erie oom pany for 810,000, and two or three real* dtate of Paterton are to do so booh. TIIK nriTH MAI* CANAL. Why II nut lommrnrnl ami Why ll *• Al*i>loi-l. Gen. It. F. Butler, in his address before the Army of the James, re ferrcd to a peculiar point in the his tory of that army—the digging of the Hutch Gap Canal. Geu. Butler said : It was demonstrated to the Command ing General and the Chief Engineer of the armies of the I'uited Statea that it was impossible for the navy to aid the army IU our operations further up the liver than our right rtsuk of the penin sula at Bermuda Tlnndred. because of the want of sufficient depth of water around Trent's Reach, even if the river had uot been commanded by the enemy's batteries at Hewlett House aud along the Iwmks.nud in any future ojora tion* toward Richmond made upon the north bank of the river, which was the ouly meveuieut against the enemy's capital which could be made with any hope of ancceM, If not driven from their positiou, the enemy's gunboats above Trent's Reach would give the same aid to him and drive our forces back from the river, as our gunboat* bolow could give to us. It was assumed by the Com mandiug General of the army that if there wa* sufficient water to float the gunboats of the Cuited Slates they w n> more than able to cope with the enemy's gunboats and drive them above Fort Fading and leave The bauk of the river free for our advauce. The river at Trent's Reach tnukes a sudden and a vary sharp bend and return like a tiorwe-du e, so that while the distance ironud the circumference of the shoe is >eveu miles, tnecut across at the heel from water to water w is only 420 feet. It was, theft fore, determined, after full consideration by the engineers of the army, to out a channel t">o feet w ide, 500 Let long, and 16 feet deep, through this bauk, so as to permit our vessels to pass up. Of such importance was it deemed bv the enemy te prevent the accomplishment of tins work, that while it w.a going on they threw into the excavations, iu the shaje of .shells, mai.v hundred tons of iron,but because of the precautious taken, with very little result, the cutting was prosecuted on the south side until the earth was all thrown out but an embankment of 25 feet at the bottom from water to water extending upward wedge-shaped, so as to afford a protection to the workmen from the direct fire of the foe. This portion of the other side was milled and some tons ul powder put 25 feet deep at its hiue for the purpose of throwing out thia las: obstruction, all of which was successfully accomplished, and on the 2tth of December the mine was tired, the cut opened, and three feet of water was running through the debris of the bank left by the explosion. Forty-eight hours of dredging would have opened the chancel for our gun boats to pass up, to join battle with the enemy's vessels, and clear the river, at least up as far as the gnu* of Fort Darling, which commanded the banks some six or eight miles above, thus en abling the advance of the Union army from the position which they had at Fort Harrison, oi which I will speak hereafter. But at that hour and from that mo ment all work ceased on the canal uutil the return of peace ; and the Army of the James have rested under an impu tation of a futile and asciese expendi ture of time and money to do a useless work. I have said that the canal was under taken for the purpose of allowing the Union naval vessels and monitors to clear the river, and put themselves in position, if need be, to bombard Fort Darling. The door was to be opened, and this was doae with the fail ooacur rence of the commander of the navy apou that station when it was begun, and who aided us in it by every means in his power. But then there was a charge of commauders on that station. When the canal was ready to be opened, the commanding officer of the works at Datoh Gap received a letter from the commanding officer of the naval forces of ttie United State* stationed in James river asking him not to go on and open the passage through because he would thereby give an avenue to thcenemv to come down through and attack the fleet of the United States stationed below it. When the door was about to be opened for tue dog to kill the wolf the dog feared that the wolf would eat him. In obedience to that tequest of the navy, which conld not be made public, be cause the euemy ranst not bo informed by any true patriot that the naval forces of the United States in James river were not competent and able to resist and overcome the naval forces of the enemy stationed in James river near Richmond—and rather than disgrace should fall on the American navy, the Army of the James chose to rest under the imputation tliat they were unable to complete thia great work for the use of the navy, which, however, might have been done in three days. And so the engineers of the Army of the James saw in silence that their work was fruit less, because the navy for whom it was made refnsed to take advantage of it, not without some reason, as was after ward shown ; for a few weeks after that letter requesting us not to open the canal, the enemy's gnnboats, embold ened by the inactivity of OUIR, came down around Trent's Reach, only three of them, and although one got aground, the other two made an attack upon our naval vessels, which fled ingloriously down the river ; aud if the euemy bad only known their strength and made pursuit, they wonld have cut in two the armies of the United States operat ing in that vicinity, and been able to command its base of supplies at City Point. But fortunately they did not know their strength, and they returned after having shown that our naval ves sels, as theu commanded, if able were not competent to cope with those of the enemy. Trouble at the Wedding. A scene took place the other day in Preston parish church. The daughter of a tradesman was about to be mar ried to a bntcher coming from Barrow, whom she had only seen twice previons i ly. The father and the brother of the bride, hearing of the wedding, went to church before the ceremony had begun. The former seized the bridegroom, while the son endeavored to get the i bride away. She refused to go, and clnDg to the bridegroom. A police sergeant entering the church,the father i demanded that the bride should be i taken into custody for stealing a watch, | and also apparel which she was then wearing. The bride, who was terrified j at her father's conduct, gave up the watch. The father averred that his daughter had lost £3,oi>o by marrying ; without his consent. The police ser geant refused to take the bride into custody, the father and son were turn ed ont of the church, and the mar riage ceremony was proceeded with. Economy. One of the hardest lessons for young f eople to learn is to practice economy, t is a harder duty for a yonng man to accumulate and save his first thousand dollars than the next ten thousand. A man can be economical without being mean, and it is one of his most solemn duties to lay up sufficient in his days of strength and prosperity to provide for himself and those who are or may be dependent on him in days of sickness or misfortune. Extravagance is one of the greatest evils of the present age. It ia under mining and overtnrning the loftiest and best principles that shun Id be attained and held sacred in society. It iB annually sending thousands of young men and women to ruin and misfor tune. Cultivate, then, sober and industri ous habits; acquire the art of putting a little aside every day for future neces sities ; avoid all unnecessarv aud fool ish habits. In the suit of Samuels vs. the New York Keening Mail Association, for •mblishing a rumor that when the Dauntless was defeated in the ocean race Capt. Samuels went on a spree and had committed suicide (a report wholly false, aud oorreoted on the next day), s jury awarded him #3,500 damages. Wrecking on Iho Bahama*.

There waa hurrying to and fro, ai d tin sounds of voices shrill and rannl, caused by some sudden and ex traordinary excitement. Iho wharves of the little port were thronged and positively black with eager negroes, and great activity was noticeable among the sloops mud schooner*. Some were discharging their cargoes of sponges, shells, fish, and cattle in hot haste ; others were provisioning or sotting up their rigging ; others again were ex peditiously hoisting their snils and heaving up their anchorr ; while the crews, black and white, sang sougs in merry chorus, as if uuder the iu rinence of great and gi>od tidings What could it all mean ? It meant this—another vein in the itahama gold mines had been struck, another load discovered, sud the miuers were off to develop it, each hoping to be the lucky cue to turn out the largest nugget, and retire on it for life. In oth< r words, uews had just been brought of the wreck of a ispani-h vessel on the Luva dciros Shoal, one hundred and dfty miles away. She was none of your wretched colliers or fruiter*, with a cargo valueless to wreckers, but a snip whose hold from keelson to deck Imams waa packed with at on sand tons of choice silks and stuffs for the black eyed brunettes of Havana, just enough damaged to oblige them to be sold at auction in Nassau, w l ere a 1 wrecked goods must bo brought for adjudication.

Here is a text for La Rochefoucauld, the modern tqraML" A I'ortuiriie-e Remedy Ten years ago I was trading with the Portuguese and negroes of Delagoa Ray on the southeast coast of Africa, the most notorious place for fever and ague, as well as for mosquitoes, on the African continent. Throughout the day, but especially from sunset to suu riae, the mosquitoes dance there through the sultry, hutnid atmosphere literally in dense clouds, rendering sleep or even a moment's rest utterly impossible for unaccl; mated man and beast, so that our trading party would have been compelled to leave the hor rid country had not an old friendly Portuguese taught ns how to protect ourselves against the bloodthirsty in sects by giving us the following simple recipe : Make a decoction of quassia by boiling a handful of quassia wood (also known a* quassia chips) in aqnart of water for about half an hour. Allow it to cool and then bathe your fad' and hands with it, or any other part of the body which you may desire to pro tect against the attack* of the mosqui toes. It is of terribly bitter taste, but harmless t<> the most delicate *kin if washed off occasionally with fresh water, and no mosquitoes will alight on the parts to which the decoction has been freely applied. We tried the remedy and found it to act like a charm, and I defy the combined forces of all the mosquitoes of Long Island, Westchester county and New Jersey, or any other mosquitoes, to attack me if I will ge to the slight trouble of using the above decoction. The " stnff " is obtainable iu every drug store, and quite inexpensive. A Bank Robbery. The Sangliegan National Rank, at Milford, N. H., was robbed of about $70,000, $4,000 being in bill* and the rest in private property. The cashier of thebank, F. T. Sawyer, was awakened about t n o'clock at his house by a man who shouted " You are wanted," and he immediately placed a gag in his mouth, handcuffed him, and theu tied him to the bedjxmt. Mrs. Sawyer was also handcuffed, and with her babe was fastened into a small chis t. The rob bers meanwhile bound the other chil dren, thrust them into a closet, and handcuffed and shut np the servant girl. This done they presented a pistol at Mr. Sawyer's head, dem mding the key Bof the bank. He told them they were not there, and, Mr. Sawyer having refused to tell where the keys were, the robbers nearlv strangled llim with the gag and a twist of rope round the neck. Finally Mr. Sawyer to'd them that the keys were in the p mt-offiee lock-box. The men then placed a rope round Mr. Sawyer's neck, and t ok him to the post-office. A hole was cnt in the glass, the sash raised, and the keya secured. Air. Sxwver was forced to go and open the bank, and all the funds, notes, and collaterals were taken away. Mr. Sawyer was then taken back and tied to the bod and left. Abont three o'clock in the morning, his little Bon, Fred, got loose and cut the rope, letting his father free, aud an alarm was given. The bank losses $25,000. Twenty dollars woro taken from the cashier's pocket. The servant girl and Mr. Hawi er received injuries about the face and neck. The robbers frequently threatened to kill tho babe if it was not kept quiet.

A curious stoiy i* in connection with the discovery of the remains of Leonardo da Vinci at tho Chateau of Amboisc. This ohiU'tn, long tho test j donee f tho kings of Franco, is now j littlo moro than n man* of rttina. Napoleon 111., however, gave orders fr it* restoration ; ami in IKiH, a* a preliminary atop, men were aont to search for any valnahlo art or hiitorlo treasures. Hoou aorne remain* were found, which, from a defaced inscrip tion, were (relieved to he thoae of Leonardo da Vinci, who died at the Oliatean of Clna l.nce, near by. Tho (tones were removed with o*re, and the skull minutely examined, and it wa* de cided that it tnnat have belonged to u man of great gen ill*. A caat wn* taken of it ; and tho keeper at Auiboise wna ordered to aeud tho remain* to l*ari *o that the auatoniiata might oonatrnet a skeleton front them. Hut when the re mama arrived at l'ari*, atrange to *ay, the aknll wa* found to he a very com mon one, in fact it did not tit the hone* at all, and the wonder waa how such a hue cant could have heen matte from a poor ukull. Ho the remain* were returned to Auiboise and thrown into a corner, although a monument was erected to the painter upon the •pot where thev had been found. Not long ago the Chateau of Amltuiae fell into the hand* of the Oomte de Pari*, who resolved to restore it. The l>x of bone* returned from l'ari* wa* found and put into the valllta of tho chapel of the chateau. But pretty soon more bonoa were discover* d, ami among them the identical skull from which the piaster model waa taken iu IHU. Thi* led to a:i iuvcatigation, and it appeared that after the east wa* taken the re main* were left in charge of the gar dcner of the castle. That evening, while in a wine shop, his comrade* de sired to sec the skull about which then had been so much talk. So it was taken to the shop, examined, ami for gotten, ami the keeper of the house threw it carelessly into the cellar. When the remains were ordered to l'ari* the gardener could not remember what he had done with the skull. Ho he took auother from the lot of tone*, which looked "precisely like the hst one" for he knew nothing of phrenology and comparative anatomy. When the error was discovered the gardener told a lie to get out of the scrape, ami swore he sent the bone* just as he found theiu. Years later the gardener happened to be in the cellar of thw wine shop; lie atnmbled over the lost skull, and secretly n-placd it among the bones at the chateau. And thus it was rodis covered; arid now it 1* believed the scattered tone* of the gnat painter arc all gathered together, and they will be placed beneath the monument erected to his memory. French "Frugality." A Paris correspondent say* : " I have heard a very odd, yet apparently cor rect, reason given for the uon-succes of MHla-water a* a Iwverage in thia city. Due of the leading Kugludi druggists here wo* recently asked why he did v.> establish a soda-water fountain in las store. 'lt would not take with the Parisians,' via hi* answer; 'if a Frenchman spends ten cent* for a drink he want • a scat, a little table and a sight of the daily papers with it, and he pasne* two hours in sipping it. A beverage, therefore, which must l* quaffed at ouce will not suit their habit* or their taste* ; they would consider tbcm*elvea robbed if they paid half a franc for the drink alone.' Auother amusing exemplification of the pecu liarly thrifty habits of the French was also made known to me recently. An American came out here some years ago aud established an American bar near the Grand Hotel, connecting with it that decidedly American institution, a free lunch, lie was aeon obliged to do aa-uy with tl at portion of his pro gramme, however, for tiuding that there was a place where p >od food could be had for nothing, large num bers of Frenchmen of the better cla**<-, including many of the member* of th* fashionable jockey club, came there to enjoy the eatables, but never ordered one sou'* worth of drink therewith. They considered it perfectly ' the thing' to take the proprietor's lunch without compensating him in any man ner, direct or indirect." The Mammoth Pave of Mexico. It is said thst the cave cf Cacahna milpa is the largest cave in tho world. Several persons, who have visited the Mammoth Cavo of Kentucky and that of Caoahusmilp* iu Mexico, prouounce the latter the larger. A volcanic moun tain with an extinct crater covers this cave. It is not described in guide books or books of travel. It lias, in fact, never been accurately described. Mr. Porter I'. Bliss ha* twice examined and explored it, the last time in Feb ruary of the present year. Hix hundred persons constituted the last exploring party ; they were provided with Bengal light* and scientific appliances. After reaching a level at fifty feet depth, they pn>ceeded three and three-quar ter miles into tho iuterior. Tho roof was so high—a succession of halls— that rocket* often exploded before striking it. Labyrinthine passages leave tho main hall in every direction. Htal agmitos and stalactites are abundant, fb-low this rave, at a great depth, are iwo other immense eaves, from each of which issues a branch of a great river, uniting here. These two rivers enter some five miles distant at the other side of the mountain, flow parallel, and issue at last together. Vast quantities of bats are the most numerous inhabitants of these caverns. Risks III* Life on hi* Faith. Frofesaor White, a champion swim mer, recently consented to drown him self in order that his theory of resus citation might bo tested for the benellt ol the London Humane Society, who were present to witnet-s the experiment. After laying down certain rules for ' holding a drowning person in the water, ho pitiuged into the river—the Serpen tine, probably, in Hyde Park—and re mained long enongh nnder water to bo partially drowned. His son then dived after him and brought him to the sur face in an apparently lifeless condition, adhering strictly to the principles laid down by his parent. The breathless body was then turned over to ono of the Humane Society'a offloers and put through the coarse of treatment recom mended. The society had the satisfac tion of seeing Mr. White revive, and in a short time return to the water with out apparent unpleasant eonseqnenoes, thus proving his theory by illustration at the risk of death. A lioodlnnt. John Caldwell was what they call in ban Francisco a hoodlum. He was shot over a game of cards. The physician who attended him gave orders to re move his boots, whercn]H)n the wounded hoodlum cried with an oath, " No, don'i tukc 'em off. I want to die with 'em on." He was very desirous that his "gal" should ho sent for, and re i peatcd the request so often that it was complied with. When the damsel ar rived, aho proved, contrary to general expeetation, to lie a modest girl of some intelligence. He interlarded his re marks with the most execrable oaths, and the physician who attended him re fused to continue his work an less the young roan's fearful language should discoutinne. A Mr. Atchorley has recently tested a largo number of samples of malt li quors in England expressly for load, and has found that poison in most of tliem.

A largo number of the miners em ployed at Home of the Bedworth col lieries,in North Waiwickshire,England, giving way to a superstition which has hmg prevailed among this class,refncd to descend into the coal-pits in which they are employed. The men are credu lous enough to believe that certain noc turnal sounds, which are doubtless pro duced by flying flocks of night hirda in their passage across the country, are harbingers of some impending oolliery disaster. During Hunday night it was stated that these, which have lieen designated "The Seven Whistlers," hod been distinctly heard in the neigh borhood of Uedworth, and the resnlt was that on the following morning, when the work should have been re sumed, many of the men positively re fused to descend the pits, and were to be seen idling abont the streets of the town. The recent oolliery accidents at Bedwortb, and the sounds by which they nro said to havo been preceded, seem to havo augmented rather than diminished this superstitions belief.

The IlityUfon Hank Thle%f--A .ftkelrli of Itielr l.atfrr oiul IIIA € areer. The approaching trial of Bnllard, charged with robbing the Boylston Bank ill Bostoii, some years ago, revives incident* connected with the robbery that are interesting. In 1 HUH the Mer chants I'uiou Kxpre** (lompuiiy wan robbed of f>ftio,UOo. The messenger of the caron which the robbery took place wax found bound and gagged, but be ing arrested confessed that he with wthers committed the robbery. Two of his confederates were arrested, but after being ill jail three mouths turned over #IOO,OOO to the express company, were turned loose, and witii filled pocket* went to Kurojto. Bullard, nun of the thieves, in Paris took the name of Wells and oj>ened an American gambling house in the Kile Herlbe. The Ay n<* ilr I'olicr ascer tained the character of the place and arrested him, and lie was sentenced by the criminal court to a brief imprison ment. When lie obtained his liberty lie married a good looking Kuglish woinun The express company's money Was >on squandered aud he decided upon a visit to America, for the purjtose of replenishing his empty exchequer. He and Marsh came to Boston in IMU9, and soon rallied around them the best burglar " talent" that could be found, all being considered first elan* men, and tli- following was what they accom plished ; When the doors of the Boylston bank, corner of Boylston and Washing - ing streets, Boston, w *-re opened on the morning of the 2Jd of November, IWJ, It wa* di*oovered that the vault hail been broken into by burglars, and that upward of S4OO,UtO worth of property, consisting of bank bills, bond*, etc., bait been stolen. From that day to this hardly any of the property has l>ecn recovered. The Boston police have Itceu unable to obtain a clew a* to who were the ]M-r)>etrators of the daring robbery. It appears that ou lire 'S2d day of October, exactly a mouth previous to the discovery of the robbery, • man giving tho tißiue of W. A. Judaou Inrugiit out a barber shop iu the build ing adjacent to the bank. Hi appoarcxl quiet and roqwctable, aud no BUnptCloU woe eutertained as to his real character. Jttdtton furuished his new room very hatulaotuely and carried on the sale of ('uhfornia wine bitters. The walla of the room were waiuacotted up to the ceiling. Tue robbers cut off a corner of the room by placing a partition and funking what apjw-ared to visitors an inuer or private room. The wainscot or wooden sheathing in the private office wa a then cut u at to form a door, be hind which wo* the partition waih This being accomplished, ihe gang commenced cutting away the wall.brick by brick, which were removed with the broken mortar in boxes labelcxl " medi cine." Working stealthily at night, week after week, the robbers cut their way through two wallis, twenty inches iu thickueas, and having accomplished this the back of the lofty iron afe waa exjvosed. They then by means of a drill cut a hole eighteen inches square into the back of the safe. Through this hole Uiey took oat all the private boxes on the shelves, aud bursting them open helped themselves to what they wonted, and having taken their choice scattered mortgages, etc., over the floor of the safe. A large portion of the bootr consisted of green backs. The burglary took place l>e tweeu the closing of the bank on Saturday evening aud its opening on Monday morning. The detectives for a long time could get no trace of the perjvetratoni of the robbery, but it ia now believed that some of these officials were interested in the robbery, or at least enjoyed their share of the proceeds. The money stoleu by Hullard from the Boylston Hank was squandered with a prodigal hand, and alter an attack of delirium trciur-ns he entered an inebriate asylum, where he remained some months, and for years past iie has been hiding from the |H)lice, till he was reeently captured at I.is residence in New York, and taken to Boston to answer for the robbery. Others of the gang have since been captured. The Nan i tar j (ondlUoti of Water. Th.-re is no more prelifle source of disease than bad water ; bnt to dis tinguish whether the fluid is unfit for consumption or not ia somewhat diffi cult. Wats-v from a certain river, spring, or well, may be repulsive to tbe sense*. aud yet harmless to the stomach, in comj anaon with other water which has a more attractive ap pearance. I'erhajNi the beet mode of determining the question ia to examine the condition of the orgamama dwell ing iu the proposed source to bo utilis ed. If, for example, an industrial oa tablinhmentor a collection of dwellings empties refuse into tha stream,and as a result flsh disappear or ara found dead upon the surface, it ia certain that the water is strongly and injuriously affected. Tbe gradual infection may In# noted by the fish first rising to the top, apparently ill at eaae, and subse quently dying, (u vitiated water also inollns\s perish and their bodies de compose rapidly. In the air they merely seem to dry tip and retain life, though torpid for some time, becoming revivified by rctnrn to water. Cresses cannot live in corrupt water, and their existence is a sign of purity in the fluid, while alga* deprived cf their green color indicate absolute corrup tion. ML Gerard in, in reference to thia subject, in a recent note to the French Academy, states that the In-st method of measuring the degree of purity or of infeetion in the water is by deter mining the amount of oxygen in a given quantity. Water containing a large percentage of the gas ia pure and good ; but when little of the latter is present, the water is decidedly deleteri ous to health. Recently, in a Colombia county (Oa.) church, when the congregation arose to sing, a pistol fell from the pocket of ono of the worshippers and wounded a .Mr. Peeler, who remarked as he was being carried out : " Take oare yon don't make me drop mine." Out at Lanesville, Ohio, the young gentlemen wear a satin badge bearing the words, "Hire a ball," nnder the luppvl of their coats, ami when bored by inveterate talkers they just torn np the lappel and display the badge. The plan is said to work finely. Try It. A tonic and alterative mediciue, the invigorating and regulating properties of which actually lengthen life, ami add to the rapacity for its enjoyment, is within the reach of every mrmlH>r of the community. No invalid who has had" recourse to Dr. Walker's Vinegar Hitters will hesitate to concede to it these invaluable qualities. It is a stom achic and n corrective of uurivaled effi cacy, yet being free from alcohol, it is not an excitant. Its anti-billons oper ation is more direct, speedy, and cer tain thnn that of any of the dangerous mineral salivauts, aud as an aperient, it gently removes nny obstructions that may have accumulated in the lower in testine, without producing either irri tation or pain. In fact, its wonderful remedial efloeta arc unaccompanied by any drawback. Of all medicines, it is the most harmless and salubrioua. As an appetizer, it is far ahead of any of the alcoholic nostrums that momentari ly stimulate the palate; while as s means of renovating a weak aud torpid stomach, it stands alone among modern remedies.— Com.
