According to the American Cuiti
vqtor, New York and Philadelphia
consumers of this delicious vegetable
award "the palm to the growers of
celery in theNicinity of Boston. The
Belmont, Arlington, and Cambridge
market gardeners excel all others in
its production, so much. that the cel
ebrated Boston Ma'rket celery, a fit-
'orite of theirs, has attained a nation
al- celebrity. It reckoned among
the. dwarfs, althoifgh the stems some
times attain the , length of trio feet.
It is solid, crisp, and of excellentla
ior. No vegetable better illustrates
• the effect of cultivation than the eel.
• et* plant. It is diffictilt to.. realize
that the mild, crisp, bleached, , and
- delicately fiairored stalki of modern
celery; spring from the sameroot as
the old, tough, hunted semlnge, or
amellage, as it is sometim ' called.
' The idea is somewhat prey ent that
the cultivation of Celery is difficult
•:1 1
and expensive, and hence. but few
farmers attempt it, outside of large
cities; but if farmers only raise a lit.
tie for their own nse, it would - pro
- , vide for their tables an excellent veg-,
,
etable bearing f?,11 and winter, when
the.piAtato is almost their sole du
pendence: - - . .
Formerly it w as.thought that cel
ery ,must be planted in - trenches, and
this expensive method had along fol
lowing.' 'But now , our market gar
deners plant the seed in rows 'with
',other crops; and after the first crop
is out they colnmence earthing up
the. celerk. It may be sown ab6nt
the first of Lay in the open ground,
or earlier ifthot-beds are used. As
the seed are! very small, they require
' but light covering, and small seed
beds should beknaule fine and rich.
CClery is_a hardy plant apd- will
stand a low' terpperature. It loves a
cool moist atmosphere. - The -young
plant should be transplanted intuthe
' blatiching row arearly as the middle
• or-lastrof June, for early. use, and
!luring .Augtist. for _winter Ilse. Some
'cultivators . ' recommend later , trans
planting, 'and ia opposite directions,
making what fa'rmers-call a dead fur
row 7 and fill it with well-rotted corn
post... Rows should' lie . three feet
apart fot the' dwarf kinds, and the
plants ten inches Mini each other in
the TOWS. ' The :blanching should
- commence' soon as 'the young
plants are la ige enough; and our ex
perience indicateh that, to give the
branches the compact form so desir
ed in cele,ty and to prevent the stems
toughening and acquiring a Strong
taste, the earthening up process
should commence early and be con
'tinued at frequent intervals. This
earthing should not be done when
the plant is dry and in the early
stages.; is best done by clasping the
stem with one hand and packing the
`, idirt closely 'around them with the .
other; afterwards it may be done
with the hoeur the spade.
If the cellar is dry and cool, a con
-. venient mixle for a small family, to
keep celefy during tile ! winter, is to
- dig a trench, -store the branches com
pactly in it, and cover them with dry
sand.' ' In
. case it is -desirable to stow
a*ay large' quantities, a dry locality
must be.selected; where no waterCin
accumulate. This_ should be dug
',about the depth of, the celery stalk
and abont foot in width, and
branches.stowed perpendicular and
compactly-, and the whole covered
liith a thin layer of leaves or- straw.

"The attempt to ,prepare ap

an ideal alphabet wouldaeek to adopt for
its characters—forms wbieh would sug

following facts :
There are eighteen ' Roman letters

The alphabrikwould then have thirty-two
letters, It seems necessary, therefore,
that there Should bp a transition period,
and for this the following suggestions are
made :
First— Transition'. characters may be

for "A" (fsite), "E" (mete), "I" (fine),

k'ourth—inng words bear changes best,
and vowels are more easily changed than
consonants, which innjeet more nbove

READIBG ALOUD
Thus far as to reading silently, whioh
every child is taught who is taught at all.
Reading aloud, however, seems almost
gone out of fashion, except among those
who do it in some way prrifessionally. It
-
it is. no longer really taught in schooli, or
it is taught in,very few. A single one:,
ation has seen it pass away. The reason
of this is twofold and strange. ' Poi it is
first the great diffusion of- education, and .
next the great increase in reading. Read=
ing aloud cannot be taught in large class
es, and: consequently in public schools
and br large private schools it has - fallen
into:neglect. - Not that there la no pre
tence made of teaching iq although even
of this there is comparatively. little; but
that there has ceased to bd thatndividu-f
-al practice before the teacher, guidel bY
.his example as well as informed by\his
instruction, which used to be regarded ae
one of the most .
,important of daily school
exercises. This is much to be regretted.
Better let two " branches" go than this
of reading aioud. Id fixing his attention,
in leading to exactness'\ of 'apprehension,
in power of bringirig the pupil's mind in
to a flexible adaptability to \ the thought
presented to it, there is no exercise that
will take the place of reading alond. A
person cannot read anything aloridi well,
with proper inflection* and emphasis,
without thoroughly understanding it. A
pupil cannot scramble through and skip
over what he knows that he is likely to
I e called upon to read aloud. It is among
the bestOf educatiouriliseipHnes. Be.
Aides this, with a competent teacher it is,
I need brdly say; :the very 140 - twang of
acquiring that, clear entutcintion.which is;
one of ,the greatest beauties of speech,
and which any observant person will hill
largely lacking in,the younger people of
the present day. Good English speaking
and good:English writing ceme:s, • except'
in cases of ‘re inborn faculty, chieflyby
the eading aloud of good Eriglish au=
thurs.ender thelpervision of a teacher
'who himself or h .self speaks good Eng-
Bah and understanda those authors. 'Of
such teachershow many may be found in
our public or in our pr ate schools? of
such teaching, or of the attempt , at such
teaching; how much? —Rs e and Grant

A ELBA TOR THE BOY.
The boy is an offence in himself.
must have something to do, and as
hands are idle the proverbial provider of
occupation for idle hands is always xeady
with instruethins for him. • A boy make"'
noise In ;utter defiance of the laws : of
acoustics. Shoe him in velvet and carpet
your hcruse as ydu will, your boy shall
make such.a hubbub With his heels as no
Watchman's rattle ever gaire forth. Doors
in his hand's alwayssbut with a violence
which jars the whole house, and be is
certain to acquire each day the -art of
screaming or whistling in some wholly_
new and‘escruciating way. Loving his
mother so violently that his caresses da
rer ge her attire and seriously endanger
her bones, ready to die in- her defense, if
need be, he nevertheless torments her
from morning to night and allows her no
possible peace until slumber 'closes his '
throat:and eyelids, and deprives his hands
arnA feet of their demoniac cunning.
In public your boy,= is equally a nUi
save. Collectively or individually he
offends the public in .the - streets. Vast
ever he does is sure- to be wrong,. He

Speaking in all\ seriousness - , it Lis not
well to suppress the\ oporto from which ,
they derive strengthaill health and mart- :
ly vigor of body. We may and must reg
ulate these things; but, mere suppression
is a crude and tyrannical method of deal- ;
ing with them. In Boston, a City of no-
tions, whose notions are surprisingly wise
and good, awe is taken to give t/Orhoior
room. ' A.sport which becomes annoying
is not suppressed, but is f given novPie
room inplaces where it wilk anney,lens4;
and when, ler example, certain • streets
are publicly set apart for coasting, as ,
they are in Boston every winter, the po.
lice have no difficulty in preventing coast

opinion of,some of the scltbel-teacheri on
the subject. I amnot a school-teacher.
But as I" have studied that branch, and
made some Observations for myself, per-.
haps I may be allowed -to express - my ,
thoughts ofi - the subject under consider,-
tion. Ido not agree *With the writer on
some points. It is true, that the solo ob

iTiki scholars, this . branch of study, ii
much more difficult than - it is with others; i
brit i tie v a rule, 'any :considerable degree of
proficiency in this study is only obtained
after coainued and persistent efforts. 'To
retain severs numbers in the mind, and .
to solve aproblem rightly, and obtain
correct results, \ often
.requires not only
practice but perseerence. The; study of

THE WONDEEFUL EFFECTS OF ELECTS()
SILICON UPON TUF. BUM AN SYSTEN,
shad a defect In three of my Angers, Which wete
bent or shut up In my hand In such a• Manner by
the contraction of the cords, that, they; were vete
troublesome to me In my deny avcicatlon. I could
dot handle my tools as I wished. 'and often
thought that I would have them cut otf to get them
out of my way. I had nsed.everything that offered
any hope of relief. but all to no'effect. Well, I sal,
I Was working with Electro Silicon at the forge,
and of course could not prevent its coming to con
tact with my hands. / •
I took no notice of the effect it had produced,
until one day wishing to use a heavy hammer, I
grasped it with my croCkeil hand, and much to my
surprfse I found my crooked lingers: straighten
out, and I had as much use Of themes ever. I
could hardly believe my eyes. I showed my hand to
my wife and fandly,,aud a general rejoicing was
the result. p
The questian now was, What had produced this
wonderftil effect? Every act was recalled, and after
a long and careful Investigation, I at lan made up
my mind that my good fortunehad x beeo caused by
E LEC RO -8 ICI:CON.
MY next step wax to illscovee some means by
which I could combine thlswonderfid substance so
that everybody could use It. I made diligent search
through everybook that I thought would throwany
lightupon the subject, and at last, In a very old
medical booko found a way by which I . Could dolt.
The result was, pitfectly satisfactory, :and I :was
able to make a ifainscnt, the like the' world has
never seen before - . I now began to, look about me
fur cases to try the effect of -it on others, - 4
'I had a Itelghoor. living about a mile from my
-shop who had a lain knee, caused by' the, cords be.,
Ingdsentiacted byrheumatism. I sent him a bottle
