them of great value oh different grains,

a few days gained 1b worth half a crop
of grain.
The ashes strengthen the wheatstem.
giving it .substance and solidity; and
developes the berry quicker and better.
, Ashes are also a preventive against rust,
and I have seen the wheat upon which
ashes were sown free from rust while
that 1 upon which none had been sown
was rusted close to the drill row. Save
your ashes and try the experiment next

to collect all the ashes you can get.
Farmers can afford to pay as high as 20
eta., per bushel for good unleached, hard
wood ashes for farm use, not only to
put on wheat but on corn, oats and
clover ps well. I believe they are the
cheapest manure that the farmer can
buy, aB potash enters largely into all
the,gra}ns&nd grasses that are raised.
■ Twenty bushels can be sown to an acre
with the very best results. Leached
ashes are also- good though a larger
quantity should be used. All around us
large quantities both of leached and un
leached a&hes go to waste every year.
These should be returned to the soil.
Now is a good time to collect them and
I would advise all farmers to do so and
apply them to their fields.
Grass Tor Horses.
Many persons think that horses that
are kept in thestable all summer should
not be allowed to eat grass. They think
i t will make the horse soft wißhy-washy,
and that it will throw him out of condi
tion for hard work. This is particularly
the case with some of the trainers of
trotting and running horses. And
horses that are kept up for farm and
other work are refused grass because
their drivers think they will noteathay
so well. This was formerly the case
more than it is now. But these are all
erroneous opinions and practices, and
are giving way, gradually to a more
reasonable and natural system of feed
ing.
Orasß is the natural food for the.horse.
It is cooling and healthful food. It
keeps the bowels open und sharpens the
appetite. It promotes digestion, and
removes fever from the system. There
fore, by all means, let the horse nip
grass fifteen or twenty minutes daily..
Where training for trotting or running,
it will be attended with the highest
benefit. The hors.e will lose none of his
speed by such a course of treatment.
Horses that are kept up the year round
for farm work should certainly be al
lowed a nice nibble at grass eyery day.
They work hard, and ail they get for it
is something to eat. Let them have
then, what they all like so well.
Potatoes.
Some good may result from the potato
fever. Those who pay fancy prlceß for
new varieties will be likely to cultivate
them well, and remember and record
the methods they adopt, as well as the
results.' One thing seems to be settled
already! viz : that one or two eyes in a
hill will yield more potatoes to the acre,
and those of more uniform size and
quality; than whole potatoes or six or ;
eight eyes in a hill. The hills with one
ortwoeyea maybeplaced nearer togeth
er, and thus the numberof hills increas
ed and the land more fully occupied.
This approaches the old Irish method
of cultivatiug potatoes in beds worked
fine by the spade, and the sets planted
iu squares ol about one foot. At har
vest time the whole bed was filled with
tubers. Another thing also seems to be
decided by recent experience. Those
varieties that make their growth before
the summer drought are more certain
to give satisfactory results, and to escape
the attacks of disease.

Butter of rich yellow color is sought
iu the market, aud how to make yellow
butter ia a desirable art. Many dairy
men change the natural color of their
butter, especially in wiuter, by the use
of various coloring substances, the inoßt
common and the best of wkioh is the
orange-carrot, grated fine, and its juice
strained into the cream at the time of
churning. This gives the butter a fine
color, and a fresh, agreeable flavor, and
is an improvement. A much better
way, however, is to color aud flavor it
by the food given the cow, or by an in
fusion of Jersey blood into the herd.
Indian or linseed meal, roots, especially
potatoes, and fine English hay, will
make butter of flue color and flavor.
The color of the butter of cows fed on

natural grasses, is good.

imperfect idea of/It. It lrtrue that *
blowing Is a large and important pa# of
the operation, but It would ,be ; Impossi
ble to produce a , flat of glaes by
blowing alone. i i: . ‘V. ... 1
. There are three ways in which flat
tables or plates of glass may be obtained,
one of does not Involve blowing
at all. Glass made by the latter process
Ib called plate glass. Theglassmadeby
the two systems whiohrequire blowing
are.called respectively “crown glass”
and “cylinder glass,” terms derived
from peculiaritesln the methods of pro>
ducing them. We shall first describe ;
the method of producing crown glass.
The arrangement of the furnaces for
manufacturing glass has already, been
described. The workman takes up on
the end of his pipe a large mass of glass
by successive operations exactly as de
scribed, except that for making crown
glass he takes up a much larger weight.
He also rolls it upon the “marver” in
the same manneir as he would for mak
ing bottles; but in the present opera
tion greater care is required to prevent
the occurrence of inequalities, as the
mass of plastic glass is so much larger.
HaviDg formed the bail upon : the mar- ,
ver until it assumes the shape of a pear,
an assistant —generally a boy—mean
while slightly distending it by blowing,
it is next Boftened in a small furnace, ;
and again rolled on the marver to cor- ■
rect any inequalities that may have ,
formed during the latter heating, and |
at the same time to collect the greatest
mass of glass at the extreme end tech
nically called the “bullion.” The bulk .
is now further extended by a blastfrom
the lungs of the workman, it being
meanwhile supported by resting the
pipe upon a horizontal bar, called the 1
“bullion bar,” until it assumes nearly
the form of a sphere. In some instances
the “bullion bar” is dispensed with,
other equivalent apparatus being sub
stituted for it. Its use is to aid the
workman in rotating the bulb, so as to
keep it as nearly as may be to the
globular Bhape.
It is next taken to the bottoming hole.
This is a circular hole in a furnace, be
fore which, at a short distance, is built
up a screen of mason work, which ex
tends far enough to protect the work
men from the heat. His face is also
protected by a mask, having apertures
with glass plates to permit his seeing
his work. The pipe with its expanded
bulb is laid across a hook projecting
from the screen of mason work. Here
the bottom of the bulb (bullion) Is ex
posed directly to a high heat, and the
pipe being rapidly rotated by the work
man, the centrifugal force thus gener
ated soon reduces the bulb from the
form of a globe to that of a prolate
spheroid—that is, it spreads laterally
until the side opposite the fire becomes
nearly flat. An assistant now attaches
to the centre of the side opposite the
pipe an iron rod called a“pontll” or
“ punty,” so that itshall stand as nearly
as possible in the axis of rotation. The
first workman then immediately de
taches the pipe by touching the neck of
hot glass with a cold iron wetted with
water. The side to which the pipe has
hitherto been attached is now presented
to the furnace. Rotation being contin
ued, the glass begins to expand, the
hole left by the detachment of the pipe
becoming larger and larger, until finally
the whole bulb suddenly expands into
a single fiat table. Before this result is
attained, however, it becomes necessary
to remove the bulb to a large furnace
called>the “flashing furnace,” which
has an opening similar to the “bot
toming hole,” except that it is larger.
The glass has now the form of a flat
circular plate, but at the point where
the punty Is attached there will be left
upon it a projection called the “ bull’s
eye.” In order that the form of the
plate may not be altered, rotation is
Kept up until the glass is sufficiently
cool to support itself. It is then taken
taken upon a large iron fork by another
assistant, and, the punty beiDg cracked
off, the plate is carried to the annealing
furnace, where it remains twenty-four
hours. After the annealing, the glass
may be cut into proper sizes and packed.
The aboye outline gives but a faint
idea of the skill required to produce
crown glass. Necessarily a description
of all the minor manipulations requir
ing the greatest dexterity have been
omitted. Enough, however, has been
said to give the reader corrrect ideas of
the general principles of the method.
Crown glass is not manufactured now
n this country or in Europe as exten
sively as cylinder glass.
In the manufacture of cylinder glass
the blowing extends only so far as to
produce a cylinder open at both ends.
In fact, the blowing is, during the entire
process,' accompanied by manipulations
of a peculiar character ; blqwing alone
would not produce the desired result.
The furnace holes are somewhat ele
vated, and platforms extend out from
the base of the furnace, one for each
hole or pot, upon which the workmen
stand. These platformß are of consid
erable length, and have pits of consid
erable depth dug between them to per
mit the workmen to swing the bulb
during the process of elongation. The
manipulations are the same as for crown
glass up to the point where the globe is
expanded, and have so far been already
described. When the blast is first forced
into theplasticglass,the expansion takes
place in that portion of the pear-shaped
mass called theneck. The workman now
holds the ball over his head and
the weight of the thick portion
of the mass presses down the
expanded portion until it assumes the
shape of the top of a bottle, like
the large ones used by druggists to
contain their tinctures, etc. The ex
panded portion being now permitted to
cool, which it does rapidly on account
of its thinness, ibedomes rigid. The
workman then commences a complex
manipulation. He blows through the
Eipe at the same time he rotates it to
eep up the cylindrical form of the ex
panding portion, and- also swings the
ball in one of the pits above described
thus elongating the cylinder. The
glass as it becomes thin cools off and
and becomes rigid and one of the most
difficult parts of the operation con
sists in expanding the glass to the re
quired size at precisely the time when
it becomes so cool as to remain in the
proper form. When the walls of the
cylinder have become everywhere of
uniform thicknes, and the proper lengtja
has beenattained, the end farthest from
1 the pipe, being closed, has ahemispher
’ ical form. This end is now subjected to
[ a quick heat at the mouth of the furnace,
and burst open by a strong blast through
. the pipe; the pipe being now rotated,
. the part thus burst open is expanded by
, centrifugal force to the sizeof thecooler
: parts of the cylinder. The cylinder is
now laid in a frame and the pipe de
, tached. The end from which the pipe
. has been separated has now the form
of the upper part of a druggist’s bot
tle. This portion has, therefore, to
be removed. To effect this, the
; workman takes from the surface, with
small iron rods, a small wad of plastic
glass, and separating the two rods,
' draws out the glass intoared-hotplacfcic
cord, which he winds about the cylin
der just Where it "begins to contract
towards the neck. The cylinder being
thus heated entirely about, cracks off in
the direction of the heated line upon
being touched with cold water. The
cylinder has now to be opened. This
is acconlplished by placing a bar of hot
iron longitudinally along the side of the
cylinder, when sudden cooling cracks
it from end to end. It is now passed to
the annealing furnace and flattening
kiln.- The construction of this furnace is
. peculiar, . It consists of a vault in which
revplves an iron frame supporting plat
forms, called flattening stones. Open
ings are placed around this .platform, at
which workmen stand. A cylinder of.
glass is laid in it at the first opening,
the crackedside upwards and allowed to
heat until it becomes plastic. As soon
< as this takes place, the‘workman, by
means of a winch, revolyes .the platform
and puts in* a second cylinder. The*
partial revolution brings the heated
cylinder opposite the next opening,
where a workman spreads it out with
an instrument consisting of a block of.
wood upon an iron handle. By this
time another cylinder is ready, and the
platforms again revolve. The first
| cylinder—no longer a cylinder, but a
, plate—is now operated upon by a third
workman, who smooths it out with a ;
tool similar to the one above described.*
The glass is then passed through several
. phambershavinggraduallydiminishing
! temperatures until it is sufficiently an
sealed. It is then cut intopanes, and
packed for~sale.
No verbal 1 description can give 'an
idea of the 1 facility vrith wlifcm these
operations go forward, or the skill re
quired to results by the
simple methods, employed.

an uncom
inbnJy-wSff-driformeff dride herestories are
told wni6fr 1 fancy may* interest yon and
your readers; : The first relatea to the Presl
dent's choice of a Cabinet*: It le asserted
that the Cabinet which General Grant mr
ranged, “afloat of his. own head,” asthe
boys say, and the secret of which he earned
so securely/ to'the great
polifibians was quite a different Cabinet
from the he afterwards was in
duced td select. lam told that the original
Cabinet chnsisted of the following gentle*
Secretary of State, Mr. Fessenden: Sec
retary of the Treasury, Mr. D. A. wells;
Secretary of tbe : Interior, Mr. James. F.
Wilson, of lowa \ Postmaster-General, Mr.
Dennison; Attorney-General, Mr. white,
of Boston. :
The other two members were not named
to me. It is farther related that by some
means Mr. Washburne became aware of
tbls selection, which did not suit him; and
that in the last days before the 4th of March
he contrived to persuade General Grant to
make certain changes which led to a gen
eral abandonment of the old “slate.*; It
is said that Mr. Washburne, to accomplish
his designs, brought to bear upon the Presi
dent the pressure of such political' friends
as he could muster and take into Ms own
confidence, and succeeded in his after
some difficulty. The other story concerns
the mission to Austria, and runs thus: Mr.
John Jay, it is said, went to President
Grant, ana asked with somb poaitiveness
for the mission to England. The President
replied that he was sorry he could not
oblige him; but he had sent in to the Sen
ate Committee on Foreign Affairs tbenames
of several gentlemen, and one of which he
was willing to nominate; and the commit
tee were able to agree unanlmonsly on but
one man, Mr. Motley, whom therefore he
had nominated, or promised to nominate.
“But,” said the President, “ won’t you
take something else? Would not the mis
sion to Austria suit you? ” No; Mr. Jay
would go to London or nowhere, he said,
and returned to New York. There betold
the tale to bis friends, who reproached him
for not going to Austria. “You want to go
abroad,” they said; “ Vienna is a pleasant
and important post; why not go ? ”
Mr. Jay changed his mind, and engaged
three friends to go at onoe to the President
to tell him so, and ask the appointment to
Vienna. These gentlemen were, lam told,
Mr. John A. Griswold, Mr. Isaac J. Bailey,
and Mr. Jackson S. Schultz, all well known
in your city and State.
These three accordingly hastened to
Washington. When they got to the White
House they were informed that the Presi
dent was at dinner. Not to be put off, they
demanded to know bow long he had been
eating. “ Half an hour,” was the reply.
“Then take in onr cards, and tell the Presi
dent we have urgent business,” they said.
Presently a message came that Mr. Grant
would see them if they would wait in the
parlor. The President came in, and after
some preliminary talk, they stated their
object.
“lam soriy for Mr. Jay,” replied the
President; “but I made up my mind to
offer the Austrian mission to Mr. William
Cullen Bryant, and jußtbefore you came in
I telegraphed him to that’’effect. You are
too late.”
At this, I am told, there was a brief si
lence among Mr. Jay’s delegates; but pres
ently they began to assure the President
that Mr. Bryant would not take the place;
he was not, they told Mr. Grant, disposed
to accept office. '
"But, urged the President, "you see it
is to late, I have telegraphed to Mr. Bryant.”
After some further conversation, intended
to persuade the President that Mr. Bryant
would refuse the place, it occurred to one
of the gentlemen to ask if it was certain the
despatch had gone. The President rang a
bell and a clerk appeared, who, as luck
would have it, held in his hand the despatch
to Mr. Bryant, which he was just sending
off when he was called.
Then Mr. Jay’s friendß renewed their ar
guments with the President, to induce him
to withhold the despatch and appoint Mr.
Jay instead of Mr. Bryant; and their rep
resentations were so urgent that at last Mr.
Gram consented, tore up the despatch, and
agreed to give Mr. tJay the Austrian mis
sion. That is the way Mr. Jay came to go
to Vieuna; and the story ought to convince
! incredulous people that Washington corre
sdoudents are often well} informed when
they are not generally believed —for you
mayreinember that several correspondents
spoke of Mr. Jays refusal to go to Austria
when ho coaid not go to London ; and.iater,
telegraphed that the Austrian mission had
been offered to Mr. Bryant. X.

ALL HEART.
It is really refreshing in this day of fierce
competition for office, when the struggling
thousands remorselessly trample each
other down, to meet with one kind, impul
sive nature, full of milk as an Alderney
cow, and impulsive as a boy. Such a nature
is the venerable Jesse, “the flower”—lgbeg
pardon, the father—of our cherished and
beloved chief magistrate. This good old
man bos seen many years of troubled life,
and, although winters of many years have
silvered his venerable head, his heart is as
youthfal and fresh as in his early spring
time, when he was a beau among the girls
and an athlete among the men.
I have just heard an instance of this from
the Professor, who is here studying music
at the Fifth Avenue Opera House, and per
fecting his French accent by listening to the
sweet voices of Tostee aßd Irma. The in
stance renews my admiration of the vener
able Mr. Grant. He is such a dear old gen
tleman. It seems that during the summer
that preceded the Presidential election, the
old gentleman revisited some scenes of his
youth that exist about Ravenna, Portage
countv, Ohio. When he was a sportive
young man, be loved and courted a fasci
nating girl. But, alack and alas 1 the
course of true love did not run smooth. In
fact, it run over a dam, or several dams,
and falling on the rocks below, split all to
pieces. T<>come down from my symboli
cal comparison, the gay young Jesse, the
flower, Ac., was jilted.
He returned to find his former love an
aged widow, with a family of children, on 6
of these a girl—no, not exactly a girl, but a
young widow, looking as much like her
fascinating mother at the same age.
Is not this beautiful? Does it not read
like a fairy tale? What a charming,thing
Offenbach could make of it. He would
shift the scene to a later day, after the 4th
of March, indeed, so as to bring in the
Presidential mansion, with Gen. Dent, high
custodian of the card-basket and guardian
of the boot'j&ck, and the smoking Presi
dent. And the two would sing a comic
song, with a lively chorus from the office
seekers, and then alFwoold break into the
can-caD. But I digress.
The old gentleman saw his former love,
and to conceal his tumultuous feelings,'
jested with her:
“Ain’t you sorry,” he said, “that you re
fused me; you might now be the mother
of the General, and maybe tho President?”
The old lady laughed, and merrily as
sented.
" Never mind,” the old man cried: “I
will take the same care of you as if you
were my wife. Who’s your Congress
man ?”
“ General Garfield.”
“Ah! that Roseorans feller. Well. FU
take the patronage of this district in my
own hands. I’ll make your daughter post
mistress of this town.”
The good people took this as a merry jest
from the kind-hearted old man, and
thought no more of it. The election came
off, and after the inauguration the citizens
moved to turn ont the Johnson postmaster,
and put in a good Republican. The election
was held, ana the victorious candidate sent
on his credentials to General Garfield.
That excellent gentleman proposed to file
the same, with an earnest recommendation.
Before this could be written, he read with
blank amazement, in the Chronicle t that the
name of Mrs. bad been sent in by the
President. To catch a hack and hurry up
to the White House was the work of a few
minutes. General Garfield stands very
high in the estimation of tbe administration,
and was at once admitted.
“ I came to inquire, Mr. President, upon
whose recommendation you sent in Mrs.
as Postmistress at Ravenna?”
" Upon the recommendation of my
father,” responded the President, “He
knows the family very well.”
• ‘ Does he know that this young woman
is not only unqualified—tbat she is entirely
incapable, through lack of education to
carry on the office —bnt there is great in
dignation in Ravenna over her appoint
ment ?”
“I can’t say, Indeed,” responded the
President, “but I certainly don’t wish to
appoint suoh a person to office.”
“ Will you recall the nomination, then,
Mr. President, and permit me to leave with
you the papers of the successful candidate ?”
... “If you will have the confirmation de
layed for a while, I will certainly send in
the name of the gentleman you recom
mend.”
General Garfield hastened to the Senate,
saw the committee, and hsd the young
widow superceded. But the venerable Jesse
■heard'of thiß interference of the “ Rosy
ergnze man ” in his bit of tender solicitude,
and intervened. Not, at all staggered by
tbp'.fact tbat the daughter of his love could
not read writing, he at once made arrange
ments with,,the defeated, candidate in the
elbction;.ta,gb into the'efflee and do the du
ties thereof, at a reasonable comp'ensation,'
while the, fair widow enjoys tub profltß.
With this understanding the daughter e’f
the old love was confirmed.

A very carious development has just boon
made of a fraud, ostensibly on the Treasury
hot really on dishonest private individuals,
which demands a simple remark. “Gum
bridge A Co., 69 Wall street,” send out cir
culars promising to furnish fac BimiLe Uni
ted States Treasury notes, iu sums of $2OO
up to $2,000, on receipt of from $l5 to $BO in
genuine greenbacks. The victims of the
fraud, we are told, have forwarded the cir
cular to Gen. Spinner at Washington, and
ask for redress ? • Cool, certainly. Redress
for what? How, why, wbereiu, wherefore?
Do they ask redress for not having been
furnished with counterfeit money ? Have
“ Gumbrldge &,‘Co,” feloniously withheld
the promised means of their committing a
felony ” If so, "Gumbridge A C 0.,” .have
obtained money under.false pretences, cer
tainly ; but is not their every victim parti

Fare hy the Rnllroatl.
Iu expectation of the consummation of
their connection yesterday, the Central and
Union Pacific Khilroads had made due ar
rangements to accommodate the trade and
travel across the continent. The first thing
uponwhichtbej had to agree was, of course,
the rate of passago. The respective officers
of the companies, after consultation, have
come to a temporary understanding that
the fare from New York to San Francisco
for emigrant nnd second-class passen
gers should be $75, and for first-class pas
sengers $175. Concerning freight nothing
definite has arranged. It is ex
pected tbat the trip frbm shore to shore can
be made in from six to soven days. For the
present the time ot running will be rather
slower; as the track is new and needs bal
lasting. The Union Company, as also the
Central, have each, it is stated, over 2,000
freight cars, and while the first has over
150 locomotives the iattei/counts 190.
