CHEAP, IIEALTUFUL AND EFFECTUAL
This Solution, when properly used, effectually pro
vents fermentation or decay of Fruits, end, by the most
simple and inexpensive process—every variety may ho
kept in a fresh end perfectly wholseme condition the
year round. It Is no new and uncertain experiment,
bet has been in practical use for the past eight years,
yet has been, for the moat part, kept from the public for
the purpose of ascertaining the result of a series of ex
periments, all of which have proved the validity of all
that is now confidently claimed for It.
Fruits preserved by this Solution aro as good as the
best "canned" fruits, while the use of the solution avoids
the trouble of sealing, costly Jars or cans, keeping from
the air and light, frequent examinations, and the many
other troubles and annoyances well known to every
honseWife.

Flesh native fruits the year round have become almost
a household necessity, both on account of their healthful
ness and as a luxury; and by the use of this solution this
great luxury is within the reach of every family, rich or
poor, in the land, as all kinds of fruit may be preserved
during pleasure at less than one-half the expense allay
other method.
Tho solution is perfectly free from objection on the
score of health. Professor Bache, under date •"U. S. Na
rat Laboratory, New York, September 14, 1864," says :
"By direction of the Chief of the Bureau of Medicine and
Surgery, 1 have examined your Preserving Solution. and
meats and fruits preserved by it. I have a high opinion
or its value, and believe it can be used in the preserva
tion of those articles in a fresh state fur the army and
navy very advantageously. The Solution is perfectly
free from objection on the score of healthfulness."
Other certificates from distinguished chemists, confirm.
lug the above, can ho soon and had where the solution is
sold. It is claimed:
1. That ilicar's Solution preserves the flavor of all
kinds of native fruits more perfectly and durably than
can be done lu any other way, and at much less trouble
and expense;
2. That the use of the Solution renders it unnecessary
to use air tight or expensive jars or emus. and also avoids
the inconvenience of hermetically sealing and keeping
Irene the air, heat. light, etc.;
3. That the use of the Solution admits of the keeping
of the fruit in vessels of any size, even In kegs or barrels
if desirable
4. That the use of the Solution allows the shipment of
the fruit by salt or fresh water, in the hottest weather,
without danger of loss or injury ;
S. That it is invaluable in the preserving of Tomato,

Storm of Blood and Dirt at Albany,
Masses of gelatinous matter, con
taining minute granules arrayed in it
in some regularity, were found in the
streets early yesterday morning.—
Viewed through a microscope, the
small brick colored bodies woro some
what liko the grains of wheat; and the
gelatinous matter seemed to be con
nected to each one as a separate cov
ering. They wore apparently separate
cells, very uniform iu size, being 1-120
of an inch long, and 1-255 of an inch
thick, filled with glanular particles
from which they derive their color.
The gelatinous envelope and their ap
pearance gave them at first somewhat
the character of one of the single-celled
protophytes, resembling most the Pal
mogitea, ono of the humblest kinds of
vegetation. That they were not these,
was proven by their containing a dis
tinct cell wall.
Several persons claim to have seen
them falling as a shower, and they '
were not found under trees or shelter.
They have probably been carried for a
great distance by the wind. They are
more like to be the germ cells of some
marine growth, perhaps the fucus pla
tycarpus, which they resemble. The
presence of chloride of iodine (sea salt)
which is found largely in the gelatin
ous envelope is corroborative of their
marine origin.
Dust storms and blood rains, so
called from the character of the dust
which they deposit, usually occur in
the spring or full, though they have
been observed during every month of
the year. On the 14th of October, 1755,
a blood rain descended at Locarno,
Switzerland, during which nine inches
of rain fell and the red matter that
was deposited during the shower was
found, by actual measurement, to be
an inch deep. The same storm reach
ed Suable, on the Alps, and on these
high mountains it changed into a red
dish snow, which fell to the depth of
nine feet. A storm of red hail is sta
ted by Humboldt to have occurred at
Paramo, in South America. In Tus
cany, March 14, 1813, there fell hail of
an orange color•.
In March, 1808, a fall of over five
feet of red snow fell in Carniola, in
Germany; the ground had been previ
ously covered with white, and the
storm of colored snow was succeeded
by another, the flakes of which were,
as usual, of a pure and brilliant white
—the two kinds being perfectly dis
tinct. A portion of red snow melted
in a vessel and the water evaporated
loft a fine rose•oolored brick red, fell in
Italy, in 1816, and in the Tyrol, 1847.
A black snow fell at Walpole New
Hampshire, a few years since, so in
tense in its color that a correspondent
of the Boston Journal remarks con
cerning it: send you some writing
written with the snow as it fell, and
with a clean pen.' The different colors
of many of these storms may depend
upon the same coloring matter under
different conditionk
Microscropic investigations in vari
ous parts of the world have revealed
the cause of these dust storms and
blood rains to be either portions of
various minerals or shells of infusoria,
or parts of plants and insects carried
into the atmosphere by the winds.
Infusorial shells and aquatic plants of
especial localities have been identified
after having crossed the ocean and
been deposited in dust storms, thus
tracing serial currents.
Ehrenberg found 320 different ape.
cies of organisms in the dust of various
showers; of these, five were of marine
origin. This distinguished naturalist
mentions 340 instances of dust storms
and blood rains, of which 81 took place
before the Christian era, and 259 after
it.—Albany Argus.
ADE OP THE WORLD—WHAT SAYS
GUANO ?—The deepest deposit of guano
known is 70 feet. According to Hum
boldt, a deposit of three centtiries
would not etceed more than one-third
of an inch in thickness. By au easy
mathematical caleulation it will be
seen that at thi,s rate it would take al
most countless oeuturig to form the
deepest guano bed. Such a calcula
tion carries us back towards a former
geological period, awl proves that in
past ages a greater number of birds
existed.

-PERSEVERE.-
1 A Mexican Love Story Solved.
An extraordinary story comes from
lexieo relative to flour. It appears
that an old miller in that locality had
a very beautiful wife, of whom he was
jealous in the extreme, and took out
his "soulagement" in thwacking the
lovely young being. There was a cer
tain cook, of the male species, young,
handsome, and fht, who came to the
mill from the hotel to buy flour, and
hearing of the distress ofthe lonely
one first; and seeing her " . S'acond,
come, of course, dreadfully in love.
Some one told the miller.
The town began to talk of the fact,
and to laugh at the floury ono. One
day the cook and the lovely young
wife suddenly disappeared, and merrily
laughed the Mexicans at the
misfortune; nothing wont down but
the scandal of the elopement of the
miller's wife and the cook. The miller
scowled vengefully upon all the town;
and so time passed; nothing more was
heard of the cook and the miller's wife
by any one. Two years after tho mil
ler was pleased to die, and to inform the
world in a paper, which was left to be
opened after his death and to bo pub
lished in the town, that the cook and
the miller's wife has, by his planning,
eloped into an oven two years since,
and been baked; that he would have
got rid of them elsowiso, but for the
jeering of the public; therefore he
ground them up in a largo mess of
corn, which the town people were
pleased' to compliment him for as being
exceedingly rich and nutritious, and
he only hoped they would enjoy the
reminiscence as he did the remainder of
his life that ho was spared whenever
he saw a townsman.
THE FLORIDA Ku:rd.—The following
are Agassiz's estimates of the forma
tion and ago of the Florida reefs on
the coast of Florida :
These reefs are built up by an insect
that begins to work on the ground, in
water of twelve or fifteen fatinamedeopr
and ho cannot live unless - ho has the
constant action of the sea" npdn him,
so that he stops at the height of high
tide. By numerous experiments it
has been ascertained that the 'coral
constructs at the rate of about half an
inch in a century; but in order to err,
if at all, on the sate side, Agassiz dou
bles his estimate in his calculations,
making it an inch in a century. Now,
outside the Florida Kepi. there is a
long reef with an average height of
seventy feet, which, therefore must
have been begun 8,400 years ago, or
2,400 years before Adam. Secondly,
the keys themselves are nothing but
aninner repetition of the same sort of
coral reef, or at least the same average
height; and builders must have fur
nished them before they began on the
outside reef, as appears from their ne
cessity of having the open sea, and
from the fact that there are now none
outside of the ono we have mentioned
above. The Keys, therefore swell the,
record to 16,800 years. Next we have
the shore bluff of the main land which
is also of the coral construction, and
which carries the earth's record above
20,000 years. Moreover, there are, as
you go inland, seven well defined, and
of course successive, coral reefs, which,
added to the foregoing, would make
the world 80,000 years old. And Prof.
Agassiz regards this as a very moder
ate estimate.
TUE COUNTRY OUDIR.-AS I look at
such matters, nothing sweeter, or pnr•
or, or moro delicious to a simple soul,
can he conceived than the unaffected
singing of a country choir. There is a
little scientific fuss and professional
palaver about it. And the melodies
come out so full and clear,—a creation
each by itself, rising and falling in its
cadences like the steady swell of the
sea! I know few things, for myself,
more true and hearty. There stanas
the choral row, male and female, heads
erect and mouths open wide,. letting
out soul and voices together; the fiddle
squeaking with excitement to get the
lead, and tho bard working chorister,
with quick eye thrown to ono side -or
the other, actually singing down the
whole ! As for the melody itself,—so
simple and direct, so plaintive, so stir
ring, filling the house us with a flood
from floor to ceiling, and drifting out
through the open doors and windows
into the echoing streets,— it is enough
to move tho most worldly heart that
over tried to mint. itself 'into money.
Ono hardly thinks ho catches such se
raphic strains again though ho goes all
the way from New England to Rome.
THE LAuorror A Wommr.—A woman
has no natural gift more bewitching
than a sweet laugh. It is like the
sound of flutes on the water. It leaps
from her in a clear sparkling rill; and
the heart that hears it feels as if bath
ed in a cool exhilarating spring. Have
you ever pursued an unseen fugitive
through trees, led on by a fitiry laugh
—now hare, now there, now lost, now
found? We have; and we are pursu
ing that voice to this day. Sometimes
it will come to us in the midst of care
and sorrow, or irksome business, and
we turn away and listen and hear it
ringing through the room like a silver
boll, with power to scare away the evil
spirits of the mind I It turns the prose
to poetry; it flings flowers of sun Shine
over the darkness of the wood in which
we are travelling; it touches with
light even our sleep, which is no more
the imago of' death, but is consumed
with dreams that aro the shadows of
immortality.
re,=.Little things sometimes produce
great'results. A drop of water a little

Why do you Worry ?
Don't you know that multitudes of
human beings turn away from the
many blessings of their lot, and dwell
and brood upon its worries? Don't
you know that multitudes persistently
look away from the numerous pleasant
things they might contemplate, and
look fixedly, and almost constantly, at
painful and disagreeable things? You
sit down, my friend, in your snug lib
rary, beside the evening fire. The
blast without is hardly heard through
the drawn curtains. Your wife is
there, and your two grown up daugh
ters. You feel thankful that, after the
bustle of the day, you have this quiet
retreat where you may rest and refit
yourself for another day, with its bus
tle. But the conversation goes on.
Nothing is talked of but the failings of
the servants, and the idleness and im
pudence of your boys; unless, indeed,
it be the supercilious bow with which
Mrs. Snooks that afternoon passed
your wife, and the fact that the pleas
ant dinner party at which you assisted
the evening before at Mr. Smith's, has
been ascertained to have been one of a
second-chop character, bis more hon
ored guests having dined on the pre
vious day. Every petty disagreeable
in your lot, in short, is brought out,
turned ingeniously in every possible
light, and aggravated and exaggerated
to the highest degree. The natural
and necessary result follows. An hour,
or less, of this discipline, brings all par
ties to a sulky and snappish frame of
mind. And instead of the cheerful
and thankful mood in which you were
disposed to be when you sat down, you
find that your whole moral nature is
jarred and out of gear. And your wife,
your daughters, and yourself, pass in
to moody, sullen silence over your
books—books which you are not likely
for this evening to much appreciate or
enjoy. •
Now, I put it to cvery sensible read
er, whether there be not a great deal
to - o - nurcliTd — this•kind of thing. Are
there not families that never spend a
quiet evening together without embit
tering it by raking up every unpleas
ant subject in their lot and history?
There are folks who, both in their own
case and that of others, seem to find a
strange satisfaction in sticking the
thorn in the hand further in,—even in
twisting the (lugger in the heart. Their
lot has its innumerablo blessings, but
they will not look 'at those; .het the
view around in a hundred directions
be ever so charming, they cannot be
got to turn their mental view in one of
these. They persist in keeping nose
and eyes at the moral pig sty.—Coun
try Parson.
TRUE AND FALSE GOOD-BREEDING.-
It is truly said that a little gentility is
a dangerous thing. There are no such
sticklers for etiquette as the would-be
fashionable, who have heard of good
society, but have never soon it. Hav
ing no innate good-breeding, they
hedge in their lives with conventional
ities and rules borrowed from the
"Handbook of Politeness." It is un
safe to do an original and spontaneous
act in their presence, or let fall a re
mark that's not correctly common
place, if you would beware of offending
their fastidiousness. On the other
hand, there's no such freedom any
where as in really good society. Truly
well-bred persons never act by rule, or
fear giving offence by the freedom of
their conduct and conversation. It is
the high tone of their behavior that
preserves them from vulgarity, not the
observance of etiquette. Innate polite
ness and nobility of character show
themselves in every gesture, in every
accent of the voice and glance of the
eye ; humble dress and occupation can
not conceal thorn; neither can vulgar
ity put on those high qualities, though
it be clad in purple and gold, and hous
ed in a palace.
BEAUTIES Or SHADOWS.—The shad
ows all day long play at silent games
of beauty. Every thing is double, if it
stands in light. The tree sees an nn•
revealed and muffled self lying darkly
along the ground. The slender stems
of flowers, golden rods, wayside asters,
meadow daisies, and rare lilies, (rare
and yet abundant in every nice, level
meadow,) cast forth a dim and tremu
lous lino of shadow, that lies long all
the morning, shortening till noon, and
creeping out again from the root all
the afternoon, until the. °tin shoots it
as far eastward in the evening as the
sun shot it westward in the morning.
A million shadowy arrows such as
these spring from Apollo's golden bow
of light at every step. _Flying in every
direction, they cross, interlacing each
other in a soft not-work of dim lines.
Meanwhile, the clouds drop shadow
like anchors, that reach the ground,
but will not hold; every browsing crea
ture, every flitting bird, every moving
team,overy unconscious traveler writes
itself along the ground in dim shadow.
—Henry Ward Beecher.
WHAT Is A "SYLURCIE ?"—Rev. Dr.
Cox has given the following, which, it
strikes us, well defines the term by il
lustration :—The word "splurge" is a
coinage, probably, nqt yet in any dic
tionary; yet moaning, as if a great
rock of the mountain, disintegrated
from its summit, should rush and
bound, portentous and r,valanched, into
a sylvan lake at its foot, there making
an uproarious splash, boring its way
through the parted and the frighted
waves, and after dashing tho spray in
all directions, burying itself in forgot
ten repose under congenial mud at the-,
bottom; so gone forever from sight,
from thought, from upper air, and all
the ways of mon ; thus meaning—the
low aim , of making a considorablo sen
sation at least once in society.

MALMO A Boat USEFUL.—A corres
pondent of the country Gentleman
gives an account of his training a bull
to 'useful work. He says : "I am the
fortunate possessor of a copy of a book
on dog breeding, by Gen. Hutchinson,
that liarey of dog training—which in
practice has taught me such marvels
respecting education of animals, that I
undertook to teach my bull with as
much confidence as I would feel in
training .a Newfoundland dog to fetch
a stick out of the water. I have one
of lihrteri's endless chain powers
,to
drive my hay:cutter. My bullis an Al
derny, two years old, weighing a little
over 900 pounds. I put on the break
and had him led into the power, where
ho had a small feed of oats given him.
While lie ate those lie was groomed
and caressed. This was repeated two
or three days in succession. Then,
while he was eating, the break - was
slacked a.little, and as the floor moved
down, (slowly, so as not to alarm him,)
he stepped up to keep his muzzle at
the oats. At the fourth lesson he walk
ed an hour, and cut hay enough to last
my stock—some 18 head in all—two
or three days. We have not had the
slightest trouble, and so much does he
seem to like the exercise, and the
pleasant remembrance - of the reward
of good behavior, that I shall not he
surprised if, when lie happens to find
the door open, he should go in and "run
the machine" on his own account. I
intend to put up a- circular saw and
let him cut my tire wood. Now for the
advantages. The pampering and con
finement which makes a horse run
away,will in time make a bull devilish.
The work I give him requires no har
nessing ; it is only an hour's walk up
a hill of 13 doz. elevation. It gives
him an outlet for his superfluous spir
its, it keeps him "in hand" and gentle,
it wears away the growth of his hoofs,
develops his muscle, and improves his
health. Have I not a right to expect
my herd to be benefited by such man•
agement 7 I cut all my hay, stalks
and straw for cattle and horses. It
saves fully one-third."
TRAVELLING IN ASIA . . M MGR.—There
is by no means a scarcity of vermin in
Asia Minor, and as every town and
village, and every rarticular locality,
has its peculiar annoyance, the best
way is to take a course of lessons in
the bearing of them with submission.
The novitiate wil be divided into a sop
tagon of trials.
_When you.can,see un

ono or two dozen lizards running about
in your tent, the initial trial ,is over.
When you can bear twenty or thirty
mosquito bites upon your proboscis,
and not feel afraid of the swelling, and
can even appreciate all the time how
beautifully their fine hums are drawn
out, you arc at the end of your second
lesson. When you can eat your din

of ants surround it, and even eat a few
occasionally, and when you will not

MORAL BACKBONE.—Without a stiff
moral backbone a sound condition of
the mental organization is impossible.
Yet this essential element of mental
stability is rather rare. Weakness of
the moral spine is in fact much more
common than disease of the material
vertebrte. It is a sad disability and
works an infinity of mischief. Those
who aro afflicted by it not only wrong
themselves through its influence, but
also inflict serious evils upon society.
They lend money which in some cases
they can ill spare, to persons whom it
does not benefit; become security for
people they do not know, and are
mulcted in the amount of the guaran•
tee; recommend as worthy of the con
fidence of others men in whom they
have no ccutidence themselves, and
are dishonored by the conduct of their
proteges; bestow places on individuals
they do not esteem ; live in a manner
which neither their conscience not
their taste appoves, and all this be
cause they have not strength enough
in their moral spines to bear up against
the pressure of importunity and temp.
Lotion. Where there is a natural tenden
cy to this kind of weakness it should
be choked in early life, for it rapidly
grows worse by indulgence. "Ho has
had an ill education," said the Elder•
Brutus, "who has not been taught to
deny." A peremptory negative at the
right time has saved many multitudes
from perdition. A. weak assent at the
wrong time has been the ruin of mil
lions.

Xedf-Somebody—a crusty bachelor,
of course—inquires why, when Eve
was manufaetured of a spare rib, a ser ,
vent wasn't made at the same time to
wait on her. Somebody else—a WO.
man, we imagine—replies in the fol
lowing strain :
'Because Adam never came whin.

be darned, collar string to be sewd on,'
or, a glove to mend 'right away, quick.

out, yawned out : "Ain't supper moat
ready, my dear ?" Not he. He
made the fire and hung the ' kettle
over it himself, we'll venture;
and
pulled the radishes, peeled the potatoes,
and did everything else he ought to do.
He milked the cows, fed the chickens,
and looked after the pigs himself, and
he never brought home half a dozen
friends to dinner when Eve hadn't any
fresh pomegranates. He never stayed
out till 11 o'clock to a political meet
ing, hurrahing for an out and out can
didate, and then scolding because poor
Eve was sitting up and' crying inside
the gates. He never played billiards,
rolled tenpins, and drove fast horses,
nor choked Eve with cigar smoke. He
never loafed around corner groceries
while Eve was rocking little Cain's
cradle at home. In short, he didn't
think she was especially created for
the purpose of waiting on him, and.
wasn't under the impression•,that it
disgraced a man to lighten a new wife's
care's a little. That's the reason that
Eve did not need a hired girl, and with
it was the reason that hor fair descen•
dents did."

by the absence of anything . ' in - the

those dens. It is provided with a bro.

proceeds to mow off your beard, like a

AlZti - An amusing incident occurred
in one of the churches of Philadelphia
-last Sunday evening. An old lady,
whose failing eyes demanded an unn
sually large prayer book, started for
church a little early. Stopping on the•
way to call on a friend, she laid her
prayer book on the centre table.—
When the bells began to chime she
snatehed what she supposed to be her
prayer book and started for church.—
Her seat was in the chancel end of the
gallery. The organ ceased playing.-- ,
The minister read, "The Lord is in his
holy Temple, let all the earth keep si-•
lenee before him." In the effort to•
open her supposed prayer book, she
started the spring of Ai the music box.,
