remarks that if the tun ia represented
by a tlobo tbioe lect in dmmeier the
earth will be about the tine of a pin's

estimate, and redurea us to a befitting
state of humility. At a planet it ap
pear that there it nothing very re
markable about us. We have no rings
like Saturn, nor a belt like Jupiter,
and we do not make half lh show in
the heavens that does tbe rudy shining
of Mars. We might pride ourselves
upon our age. Prof. Proctor Rays that
the sun ba been shining upon the
earth, a at present, for 100,000,000
years. Previous lo that we hail spent
850,000,000 years In cooling off. Iluck
of that lie the uncompulcd period

indifferently tbat he came into exis

very discouraging. We cannot plume
ourselves upon our age. Tbe crime of
being a young planet we must attempt
neither to pulhato nor deny. We must
search for other mark of distinction.
Tbere is every reason to sapposo that
we make a very creditable nppearanre
irf tbe firmament. Prof. Proctor says
Venus is our Bister planet, and very
closely resembles us. So by merely
looking at tbe loveliest nur In Ibe
heavens we shall be able to teo our
selves as others see na.
Perhaps no other one subject is ao
Interesting as tho moon. There is a
ghastly fascination about tbat land of

Proctor dealt a blow to the vanity
which bas fondly supposed the moon
to be a satellite of our. She doe, to
be sure, revolve tronnd us, but it is
merely because we happen to be in
tho war. Tbe real ventre ofherorbit,
round which ahe moves in blind, in

with us at all.
The moon is past ber first youth

Mr. Nehemiah Shaw ha introduced
a new enterprise at bit Lock Haven
mill, which will add something to tbe
industrial interests of this place, giving
employment the year round lo about
twenty seven hands. The enterprise
is a null lor cutting, drying and pack
ing kindling wood ont ol the oflatl of

tho purpose and adjoins the lumber
mill. Tbe cutting machine i in the
old mill. The boiler and engine are
aeparalo from that used for the mill.
Tbe slut or ofTull from the lumber

carried to ibe top ot a cuhIb Here
they are turned into another conduit
down which they rattlo and tumble
into a big bnppor or "the kiln." This
it 30 feet king, 26 feet deep, and 26
foot wide, ijenglbwine of this kiln
there are 1500 feet ol steam pipe, and
1600 feet crosswise. Above, around
and below these pipes the little blocks
tall, while through the centre a big
fan drives in more heated air, to gel
up a circulation, and thus tbe whole of
the bin, hopper or kiln, aa you may
chooao to call it, filled with blocks, is
tilled with heated air, and the blocks
that went in damp go nut dry aa tin
der, ready lo light tbe lire, for
"Polly pnl tbo kettle ee.
We'll all lake lea."
It take a week from the time the
block goes in till it i taken out. Or,
in other words, the kiln it emptied
about once a week. Iitakos that long
to nse np what it holds. Tbemaobin

The news from Vienna of a cordial
alliance between Germany and Aut
tria It ot the highest importance. Jt
meant tbat the alliunce between Ger
many and Russia ha ceased to exist.
Prince Rismarck has always consider
ed tn alliance between bit own coun
try and one of tbe great Continental
power ta the first requisite of atecuro
loreign policy. 11 is career shows thai
be would never risk a foreign war for
a foreign policy without the allianco
of a foreign country, llo secured the
active ae well at passive alliance ot
uussia long heiore Ibe war witb r ranee
broke out. During the lato war be
tween Russia and Turkey, the German
Chancellor demonstrated to tho Rus
sians that his gratitude meant thank-
tulneBS for future favors only. The
allinnce between tbo Courts ot St. Po
torsburg and Berlin I bus became mere
ly a sham, and has for snmo lime past
been so regarded hy public opinion in
both tbe countries interested. A new
alliance, therefore, becamo neoessary
upon Kismaickian principles. A
France and Germany are naiurul ene
mies for a generation to come, and as
England' insular position requires a
large navy and a small army, a new
military alliance for Germany nocusho
rily meant one wiih Austria. Austria
was of course willing to respond to
tho first overtures. 'J ho Court of Vi
enna ha lived in constant dread of
tbe German Kmpire ever since the es
tablishment of the latter. TheAiistro
German province were, it was leared,
indispcnsible lo the truly German Em
pire in Ibe estimation of the founders
thereof. A large poll ion of the young
men in those provinces gave unmis
takable evidence of entertaining the
same ideas. Just as there is a strong
local sentiment in Canada in favor of
annexation to tht United Slatrt, tbere
ia similarly an anulngoiis feeling in the
German provinces of Austria in favor
of their annexation to the German
Empire. The Canadian annexation
project is, however, one of healthy co
lonial development and will bo carried
out upon the Iricndly basis of the
common consent ol all parties interest
ed, or it will never be carried out at all.
It must be a banny marriage wilb the
old English people' consent and the

ance, therefore, means itt Indefin te

permanent abandonment. Our idea
of a political settlement ia something
much more permanent than that pre

Morris School Board, was at one time
an experienced leacber. hence is emi
nently tilted Tor the position ho fills
llis visits to schools are iboceof a well
disciplined official.
Surely there are no teachers in tbe
county who will allow their schools to
be open one dnu during the session ol
the County Institute. Remember, these
are the time that test teachers, and
show who are faithful and loyal to
duty.
Tbe Old and the New." Wander
ings in Sunny Lands," "Characters and
Manners," and tbe grand musical and
reading entertainment, will be the rich
est intellectual food erer provided for
a nearneia audience.
The Directors' meeting will be cal led

During tbe week ending; December
5th, wo visited fourteen schools in parts
of Morris. Graham, and Bradford, town-
ships. In doing this we traveled
eighty miles; was accompanied by
seven Director, and met six patrons
in the schools. Of tbe nomber visited,
eleven roomt were handsomely decor
ated. 1 n point ol system, order, method
and culture, the majority were good.
A few were middling, and tbree were
not wbit they should have been.
moriisualb tcnoor.
Duing our visitation in Morrit we
spent a couple ol hours in the school
whose name has gone broadcast dur
ing tbo present turm because of tbe
low conduct ofa low of its pupils. Our
investigation oi ine whole case proves
conclusively that neither tbe teacher
in charge nor tho Boaid of Directors
have been in error, but the whole
trouble rests with a few families, whose
total contribution to tbe support ot
th icbool would amount to aboai
13.00 annually. Such a class of pa
trons should be the last to complain
and assist to encourage their "big"
girlt to annoy and fight the teacher,
who la striving to do them good. Dur
ing our visit the deportment ol a few
boys wss not whit it should have been,
and while trying lo arga Ihem to lor
sake their evil ways, one daring up
start remarked, "Give that calf more
string." We wish only to remark that
if a rapid change is not made in the
deportment ofa lew of tbe scoblars of
llial school, we are going to give their
names to th public, together with tbe
shameful record they have bad from
their yoatb up. Therefore, yoangmen,

A DEED OF A FARM.
WHAT IT INCLCDEI 1011 1 CIEFVt IIMTA

' Tbe following it Irom ao Addreu of
Hon. Edmund ii. Bennett, deiivored
befiirt tbe Massachusetts SlAto Board
of Agriculture:
"Of coarse every one knowt It con.
voyt all tho fence Handing on tb
larm, but all might not think il also
included tbe fencing stuff, post, rails,
etc.. wbicb had once been used in the
fence but bad been takan down and
piled up for future use again in tbe same
place." ' lijl pew fencing inaU'rial just
bought and never attached lo the soil
would not pass. So piles of hoop poles,
stored away, il once used on tbe lund,
have been considered part of it ; but
loose boards or scsflold pole laid
closely across the beams of tbe barn
and never fastened to it would not be,
and the seller of tbe larm might take
Ihcmawsy. blinding trees, ol course,
ulso past at part ol the land, so do
trees blown or cut down and still loft
in the woods where tbey lull, but not
il cut and corded up for sale ; tbe wood
bas then become personal property.
ll there be any manure in a barn
yard or in a compost heap in a field,
ready lor immediate ue, the buyer
ordinarily take that also at belonging
to the farm, though it might not bo to
if th owner bad previously told it to
some otber parly and bad collected it
together in a heap by itselt. Growing
crops also past by tbe deed ol a farm,
unless they are expressly reserved, and
when it is not intended to convey
those, it sbould be ao stated in tbe
deed itself; a mere oral agreement to
that effect would not be valid in law.
Another mode is to stipulate tbat pot. -session
is not to be given until tome
future day, In wbicb case the crop or
manure may ba removed before tbit
lime.
At to the buildings on tbe farm,
though generally mentioned in tbe
deed, it is not absolutely necessary tbey
should be. A deed of land ordinarily
carries all tbe buildings on it belonging
lo the giantor, whether mentioned or
not ; and ihia rule include tbe lumber
nd timber of any old building which
hat been taken down or blown down
and been packed away for future use
on tbe farm, k
Rut if there be any building! on tbt
farm built by tome third person, wilb
the farmer's leave, the deed would not
convey these, since such building! ire
personal property, and do not belong
lo the land owner to convey. The
real owner thereof migbt move tbem
off, although the purchaser ot tbe farm
supKsed be wat buying and paying
tor all ibe building! on it. ill only
remedy in such acasewould be against
the party selling ihe premise. At
part of Ibe buildings conveyed, of
course the window-blinds ate included,
even if they be at the time taken off
and carried to a painter' tbop to be
painted.

Rev. Wav. F. Hatfield, oi tbe Wash
ingion Square M. E. Church, New
York city, in a recent sermon, said :
"Of the many questions asked about
Cain, doubtlessly tbe one bardesti.o an
swer was, 'Who was Cain't wifeT
That Cain had married tbere was no
doubt, and tbore wat every remaon to
suppose that tbt wedding took place
after the murdor. Some say tbat tbe
bride waa a sister, a cousin, or a niece,
but it it a mistake to suppose that
tbere were but two or three people in
the world at that time. Adam and
Eve were tben 130 years old. If ibey
bad no children until tboir 66lh year,
a learned physician bad calculated that
the family had numbered 130 when
Able died. Th children ol these chil
dren would bave numbered more than
.100,000. But it, aa it more likely. Able
died in bit 128tbyer, the descendants
would bave reached tbe enormoua
number of 421.000, from whom Cain
could bave bad no difficulty io choos
ing a wile. These figure are based
upon the supposition that Adam bad
only two sons. There may bave boon
many more, though tbe Bible doea not
mention tbem. In that case tbe in
habitants of the world may bave been
twice or three timet at many. Where
this wife came from we do not know.
I'he records lay 'he knew' her in tbt
land of Nod, but doee not necessarily
mean tbat be married ber there. This
portion of the history bat been un
reasonably rejected because of our in
ability to locate tbe land nf Nod. It
was certain that Cain settled down
I hero tnd lived a life of violence, lend
ing all bit cunning to draw bia neigh
bor into wicked ways."
