A Bucks county (Pa.) correspondent
writes : A "Young Farmer" asks how to
build cisterns. Our plan is as follows :
For one twelve feet in depth we make
three centers six feet in diameter, or
larger, if desired ; lay one down where the
cistern is to be dug; mark out eight inch
es larger than the centre after it is dug
out, carrying the sides down perpendicular ;
place one of the centers about a foot from
the bottom, leaving equal space all around,
theL stand boards endwise around the cen
ter about six inches wide; throw good
walling mortar to keep the boards in their
place; half way up place the second cen
ter ; pass a rope around the boards ; put a
twister to draw them together; then place
the third center within a foot of the top;
then make good mortar and fill the space
to where you think the frost will come;
be careful to settle the mortar compact iv
having filled to the frost line, let it re
main until the mortar becomes firmly set,
which in good weather, will be in five or
six days; then dig cut around the top as
large as is necessary, and wall from the
mortar to the desired height of the curb ;
now take out the centers and boards nd
lay the bottom with mortar; when that be
comes dry coat the whole pith Rosendale
cement. This plan has been tested for a
number of years here, and has been found
cheaper and more satisfactory than any
other. Our borough has three, and just
completed two more, to be used in time of
fire. If it is desired to filter the water,
make a semicircular wall of moderately
hard salmon brick, one thickness, laid in
cement, arching toward the side the water
enters.

In these days, writes a clergyman,
when diseases of the throat are so univer
sally prevalent, and in so many cases fatal,
we feel it our duty to say a word in be
half of a simple, and what has been with
us a most effectual, if' not a positive cure
of sore throat. For many years past, in
deed we may say during the whole of a
life of more than forty years, we have been
subject to sore throat, and more particu
larly a dry hacking cough, which is not
only distressing to ourselves, but to our
friends and those whom 'e are brought
into business contact. Last fall we were
indtteed to try what virtue there was in
common salt.. We commenced by using it
three times a day, morning, noon and
and night. We dissolved a large table
spoonful of pure salt in about half a small
tumbler full of cold water. With this we
gargled the throat most thoroughly just
before meal time. The result has been
that during the entire winter we were not
only free from coughs and colds, but the
dry, hacking cough has entirely disappear
ed. We attribute these satisfactory re.
sults solely to the use of the gargle, and
most cordially recommend a trial of it to
those who are subject to diseases of the
throat. Many persons who have never
tried the salt gargle have the impression
that it is unpleasant. Such is not the
case. On the contrary, it is pleasant, and
after a few days' use, no person who loves
a nice clean mouth and first.rate sharpen
er of the appetite will abandon it.
We sometimes hear flames remark that,
ploughing deep, they get less grain; that,
bringing up the new mellow soil, their
crops suffer. It would be very strange if
!his was not the case ; for this soil, even
ifever so mellow, is raw, just like manure
when it is green or long. It is not yet
c..nverted or changed into plant-food. It
needs just what the long manure needs—to
be changed by the heat and the air—that
is, decomposed or rotted.
When the top-soil is less fertile than it
used to be when the land was first tilled,
~ , tot may rest assured that this under soil
ls always better than the upper soil because
t , tc upper has deteriorated, while the un•
dor has not, but rather improved.
It it, therefore, inadvisable, nay suici
dal in some soils, to turn up deeply the un
dorground in the spring or in the fall at
sewing time. The cold cheerless ground
will not help the grain, and were it not
for the other soil mixed with it, an almost
total failure would be the result.
But turn it up in the fall, and let the
frost and the elements take hold of it, and
you have another soil; it is turned into
manure, a good part of it. A little lime
mixed with it, scattered and harrowed in,
or manure, or both, would facilitate the
process. In the spring sow, either with
or without another ploughing, and you will
find no more occasion to complain. We
have great fertility to draw upon from be
low, but it requires managing.—Eveniny
Post.

In selecting poultry and game the eyes
should be bright and the feet supple.
Otherwise they are either diseased or
stale.
Equal proportions of turpentine, linseed
oil, and vinegar, thoroughly applied and
then rubbed with flannel, is an excellent
funiture varnish.
Roasted coffee is one of the most pow
etuful means not only of rendering animal
and vegetable effluvia ennocuous, but, it
is also said, of actually destroying them.
At this season of colds, it may be use
ful to know that hoarseness is relieved by
using the white of an egg, thoroughly
beaten, mixed with lemon juice and sugar.
A teaspoonful taken occasoinally is the
dose.

AMERICAN CYCLOP,EDI A
NEW REVISED EDITION.
Entirely rewritten by the ablest writers on every
subject. Printed from new type, and illustrated
with Several Thousand Engravings and Maps.
The work originally published under the title of
Trig NEW AMERICAN CYCLOPA:DIA was completed
in 1863, since which time the wide circulation
which it has attained in all parts of the United
States, and the signal developments which have
taken place in every branch of science, literature
and art, have induced the editors and publishers
to submit it to an exact and thoroagh revision,
and to issue a new edition entitled Tug AMERICAN
CYCLOPA:DIA.
Within the last ten years the progress of discov
ery in every department of knowledge has made a
new work of reference an imperative want.
The movement of political affairs has kept pace
with the discoveries of science, and their fruitful
application to the industrial and useful arts and
the convenience and refinement of social life.
Great wars and consequent revolutions have oc
curred, involving national changes of peculiar
moment. The civil war of our own country, which
was at its height when the last volume of the old
work appeared, has happily been ended, and a new
course of commercial and industrial activity has
been commenced.
Large accessions to our geographical knowledge
have been made by the indefatigable explorers of
Africa.
The great political revolutions of the last decade,
with the natural result of the lapse of time, have
brought into public view a multitude of new men
whose names aro in every cue's mouth, and a
whose lives every one is curious to know the par
ticulars. Great battles have been fought and im
portant sieges maintained, of which the details are
as yet preserved only in the newspapers or in the
transient publications of the day, but which ought
now to take their place in permanent and authen
tic history.
In preparing the present edition for the press,
it has accordingly been the aim of the editors to
bring down the information to the latest possible
dates, and to furnish an accurate account of the
most recent discoveries in science, of every fresh
production in literature, and of the newest inven
tions in the practical arts, as well as to give a
succinct and original record of the progress of po
litical and historical events.
The work has been begun after long and careful
preliminary labor, and with the most ample re
sources for carrying it on to a succeisful termina
tion.
None of the original stereotype plates have been
used, bat every page has been printed on new
type, forming in fact a new Cyclopcedia, with the
same plan and compass as its predecessor, hut
with a far greater pecuniary expenditure, and with
such improvements in its composition as have
been suggested by longer experience and enlarged
knowledge.
_ _ _
The illustrations which are introduced for the
first time in the present edition have been added
not for the sake of pictorial effect, but to give
lucidity and force to the explanations in the text.
They embrace all branches of science and of natu
ral history, and depict the most famous and re
markable features of scenery, architecture and art,
as well as the various processes of mechanics and
manufacturers. Although intended for instruction
rather than embellishment, no pains have been
spared to insure their artistic excellence; the e-st
of their execution is enormous, and it is believed
they will find a welcome reception as an admira
ble feature of the eyeloptedia, and worthy of its
high character.
This work is sold to Suimcribers only, payable
on delivery of each volume. It will be completed
in sixteen large oc.tavo volumes, each containing
about 800 pages, fully illustrated, with several
thousand Wood Engravings, and with numerous
colored Lithographic Maps.
