BURNT - GREENBACKS.
The identification and restoration
of notes which have been burnt is a
difficult and interesting operation.
Every one has observed that a prin'..-
ed paper after having been, burnt, if
not -subjected to a strong draft or
roughly handled, retains its original
form, and that the printing is dis
tinct and legible, and appears as if it
had been raised or embossed on the
paper, but that if it is touched never
so gently it crumbles into dust.
Kota in this condition are frequent
ly received at the Department for re
demption. The counter subjects
each note and fragment of a note to
a careful inspection in a strong light,
under a powerful glass, until she de
f.( cmities the denomination and issue,
a-e.l then pastes it, upon a piece of
thin, tough 'Taper. in order that it
may be, ,safer handled. But this
paqing,,by destroying the raised or
_embossed appearance, at once forever
reeludes all chance of again identi
fying/ the kind , or denomination of
the note., llencefOrth it is but a
plain, black piece of paper, giving no
indication that it 'ever represeated
mow. ,It is therefore very necessa
ry that the counter should be quite
sure that her,judgment is correct be
fore the note is pasted upon the pa
per. She must also, —a most diffi
cult task,—determine whether the
note is genuine or counterfeit. And
yet counterfeits i are discovered by
these experts among the charred re
mains of notes with almost as much
certainiy 'as among perfect notes.
Charred notes of National banks have
occasionally - come into the possession
of the Department, and have bin'
restored in this manner and returned
for redemption to the banks which
issued them, accompanied by the af
fldavits',-of the counters that they
were the remains of notes of the
banks to which they, wens returned:
In most casei they were promptly
and cheerfully redeemed. But owe
`sionally 03. surly bank officer, unable
or unwilling to trace any resemblance
to bank notes, or at leastto the notes
of his bank, in the plain black pieces
of •paper returned to him, and influ
enced perhaps by a desire to effect a
little saving for the stockholders, re
fused to redeem and challenged the
Department to the proof. All posi
tive ocular proof having been de
stroyed when the notes were restored
and pasted, the Department was
compelled to submit to the loss.
Once some of •these experts were
granted leaves of absence, without
pay from the •governnent, for the
purpose of restoring a large quantity
of burnt money belonging to Adams
Express Company. This was per
, mitted partly because it wits'lnown
' that there was no one else who could
performl the service, without which
the company would be subjected to
great loss, but principally because
the company offered, to / Tay them
much more - foi their time and- labor
than they were receiving from the
government, and it was thought that
their long and faithful_services justly
entitled them to thip ( addition to
their meagre salaries: The money
was taken: from safes - .recovered from
the wreck of a burnt steamer (Which
had been lying for fonr,or five years
at, the bottom of the Mi§sissippi, and
the notes were so burnt, decayed,and
damaged as to be absolutely worth
less, unless identified and restored.
Yet nearly every note of the one bun
. dred and eighty-one thousand dollars
in United States and National Bank,
notes recovered rwas restored with
unerring certainty f and -redeemed at
its full faCe value.: The Chicaga and
Boston fires have for the last year
and a half furnished ' burnt ;mites
enough to keep all the experts of the
office pretty constantly employed.—

THE USES OF SNOW.
Now, that the snow has left us, we
begin to' appreciate all the advanta
ges of a snow winter. For months
NVQ have adinired the beauty of a
snow landscape. We have had all
the enjoyment of snow-balling, coait
ing, sledding; and sleighing parties,
but our thoughts have rarely gone
beyond admiration and enjoyment.
Now, that, the spring has come, let
us look at some of the practical re
sultsto be derived from the heavy
fall of snow we had last winter. We
all know that the cold becomes great
er the higher we rise in the air / The
summit of a mountain is colder than
the base. When the cold is very se
vere in the upper regiOns of the at
biosphere, it freezes the particles
which form,_the clouds. These fro
zen particles descend in the shape of
small stare; with si= points and seve
ral of thcAe joined together 'make a
flaky Innis called snow. - Snow is
from ten to twelve times lighter than
water, and the quantity of matter
contained iu snow is so small in pro
portion to its bulk, that it falls very
slowly„ From
,the loose texture of
snow, and its containing so int*
air, it is a very bad conductor of heat,
and so forms a covering for the
earth. In winters of great severity
the soil is sometimes 40 degrees
warmer than the surfa'be of the over
lying snow. The substantial, bdne-
fits that follow such heavy falls of
snow as we had this last winter are
very great ; 'and hardly realized ex-
cepting by the farmer. Snow is a
good fertilizer. As we begin to
question the best agencies for culti
vating and enriching the earth, we
find that natuo has been already at
work. The soil requires less manure
this spring, than It did last spring,
When the Aal of snow had been com
paratively. small. Last year the soil
had no protection froth the cold, and
the destruction of trees' plants and
winter'grains-was an ithmense loss
to the country. This year the ground
has been se well protected from the
cold by the snow, that the fields will
be green earlier, the trees be 'more
' hardy, and the'soil er, than -they
have been for y seasons. 11!
TREATMENT OF THE. BOYS.
• Somebody says : I have a, recipe
to offer. - Its compound,' being
composed of sevef al ingredients. It`
is an excellent remedy, and when
properly applied, has an amazing
good effect upon farmer's boys, keep,
iog them at home 'in the evening
when they ought, to lie, there, and
making them better than any other.
place On earth.. Here are the ingre
dients : . • ,
.„ 1. Tr f eat them as

of their plane, - and when you think
.your own best, explain to them why
you did, not adopt theiri: Dgnat
keep them altogether in the dark
with reference to your plans in the
future.
S. Don't require them to stay at
home in the evenings all the time.
When there is any, meeting or eater,-
tainment from which they might re
ceive benefit, be sure to let them go.
4. Provide them with plenty of
good books And papers ; especially
referring to aqietilture. Let them
be well posted in their own business
—farming.
5. Never scold them because they
don't do their work or attend to the
business of the farm as well as you
do. Encourage them. •
O. Give them a holiday now and
then. They lOok for it; and they
need it ; and it. will be better for you
and them to let them have it. -
Other ingredients may with safety
be added, but the above are of infi
nite importance, and should never
be omitted. Farmers; try my recipe;
it ids like a charm.
