ABOUT THE CHURCHES.
Tire Mame** BrELE Soctsrs Awn,
:—The charges made recently in regard te
the management of the affairs of lb,
Anietian Bible Society still continue t•
occupy the attention of the - religions
press. Theopinit nis nearly if not qtliti
unanimous that the llaale Society ouglil
to , ,sic for a frill acct fair examination . 0
itii''.booki by a ommittee of disinterestec
men in whom the public has perfect con
fidence. In regard to the charges of th•
Connecticut Society,and the reply of, tIA
Bible Society, the Chicago Aiisa nee stip:
"We cannot say that a - a quite like th ,
spirit and manner of either of tbern. Nei
ther zany, nor lofty, airs areln place it
canductinz questions of this sort. But al
least, there is at the 'present time inch
wasitiveness on the part of the constitc•
encies of the benevolent societies, as t'
the grounds of confidence, that it will he
absolutely necessary for the Mble Society
to ins :te the full• s: investization and u
Offer the mo't accommodating assistaote
in the prusecutiou of such inquiries, and
then, give to the public the results of
each examination—if it is to retain pub
lic confidence unimpaired. And the more
promptly rind frankly this is done the
hater." The Me(laidi*t says : ‘ 4 Let a
c ;mpeterit committee from the outside go
oirer the matter tho:oughly aad report--
as we presume they would—that all is as
it ought to be, and then we shall all be
satisfied. '' 4 ' '. The contributing pub
lic will claim the right to be satisfied on
such points as are ta;sed. by the Connecti
cut Bible tibciety. . If the managers insis
ttu- . .t Providence alone theirac
counts, the conti ibutors may remand the
c.);ltctions to Providence." The Watch
man draws the f...dlowing moral - frOin, the
controversy "The lesson taught.tiy : . this
incident to the one'partyiS—the
arcs of making firarichll'eihitilts so, foli
a,,to anticipate every inquiry that
to be raise-d ; and; to the of her ,party—
to enter on any inquiry that may be sug
gested as necessary, not iu the . spirit 01
detectives in search of something crimi
nally concealed,,hut - v.ith the assumption
that there is nethirig intentionally . hill
den." The Nuttlieoi Cltrigia ..Adrocatt
is one of the few rel'igioni journals which
regard the answer Of the American Bibit
Six.riety as conclusive i And it is equally
to be regretted," it say, " that there an
influential religious journals which, after
the satisfactoiy answer to the charge
have been made, Stilt call for inve.stiga
.. t.4_41, as if-the ground fur c:/nfidenee wer'
weakened if not destroyed. :inch zeal fol .

tior. as tolison-li .sincerikv."
TirE RErintous QcF-QTros: rti FusncE
,---Gambeita"s - appointrant of M. Bert to.
• 'Minister of WorShip awl Put lic Instruc
lion in the French Cabinet is a fruitful
- theme for the religions journals, which
' are of the opinion that- the outlook in
France is not au Encouraging one. "M.
Bert," says the Congregatiplist, "is an
, k advanced Positivist whose. appointment
to this post" shows the hostility of the
Government to-religious teaching of an
kind. It means the prohibition of such
teaching solar as Government has autho
rite. A step in the same direction is the
proposed transfer of the regulation of
public worship f.om the. Department of
the Interior to that of he Instruction,
rimier M. Beres eliarge.A We should as
soon exile t to see Felix Adler chosen a
Methodist Bishop as M. BLit given the-
power over Frencll aship. It looks as
!f JL Gambetta is ignorant of the memo'
growth of the religioiu; spirit' l among his
countrymen. It he made a Mistake
here it will prove
_a danger - Ous one to
him." A similar view of the case iivtaktn
by the Chriitian Infrlygeneer, which slays-
of M. Bert': " To put the control of pub
lic worship and einication in the hands of
this fanatical arid •Cater atheist and ma
terialist, is as if W titian Lloyd Garrison
had been appointed United States Mar :
steal or Cormnissio..er under the Fugitive
Slave Law, or Wendell Phillips were
made Secretary of the Treasury, or Rob:
eit Ingersoll elected President.of the
Bi
ble Society. There may be some occult
policy under the surface, or some grand
eur prise interded by this sensational Pre
mier ; but certainly the only apparent in
terpretation is, that M. Gambetta is au
enemy - to religion. * • It will te
necessary fOr the Premier to explain:thiS
appointment. •If it means' what it seems
to mean, the clouds are gathering Mice
. more about the -beautiful and ill-fated
land." The Christ Uni, a takes a
broader view of the question. Hitherto,
it says, the stronghold of the Republic
has been in the towns andcities ; "it
was the country which rallied to
- the Em
pire, because the Empire was religious
and the Republic was Ittheistic." "No
. State," it ad.'s, " is strong or permanent
which deperais for its strength on the ci
ties. Gands..tta is wise enough to reeve
. nize this fact, and he has been working,
thus far with singular huecess, to make
- - the 'count iy ri - Ile does nor
- mean to be defcAtef in this purpose -by
the country, priests ; he therefore has de
termined that.. since they are supported
by the State, they shall not use their in.
lluence to undermine the State." Hence
the appointment of M. Bert. -

A MONKMENT is to be erected to the

who died and wa% buried in Salem, Ore

of their coy-operating in this work, each
town its own siay, and earnestly invites
such co-operation. A like invitation :is

ing with which Bishop Haven had
been identified, and to his fiends at

As the subject of recuperating the
soil now ranks among the foremost
with the cultivators, and is - one
',bleb is constantly reaching for the
aid of salentilic:.research, any sug
gestions or opinions bearing upon
the same - are generally accorded a
large share of, attention. We give
below an extract from a paper by O.
E. Thome, connected with the Ohio
State University: For several years
I have noticed that some thrifty
plants of Mellotua alba were the sole
1 occupants of a plot of clay subsqii as
1 bard as the floor of. a brick-yard,
trim which the surface bad been
washed away. but i the peculiai' . sig
nificance of this habit was not im
pressed upon me until, during a re-:
cent drive over a newly made road, I.
saw this same plant growing upon
the bare clay of the roadside, whence
the soil bad been scraped in making
the,road4dde, and where even white
clover was making but ascent living,
although the melilot was already as
tall as the red clover on the fertile
soil of the 'neighboring field, The
plant—otherwise known as Bukhara
or sweet scented clover—has become
naturalized here a comparatively re
cent date, but' has long been known,
as a forage plant both -for cattte and ,
.bees, being well adapted for soiling.
as it makes a growth of four to six
fees during the season , and it is said
to bear two or.three cuttings; while
its sweet-scented blossoms afford a
favorite pasture for the honey gath
erers. The German analysis gives
to its bays feeding value of $l5 per
'ton, against $16.28 for - "very good"
-red clover hay, while its habit of
growth is Bubb that I should expect
it to yield a Much heavier crop than
red clover. But without, discussing
the value of the melilot as a foliage
plant, the observations I have noted
indicate that we may possibly find
in it a counterpart of the Southern
cowpen as a recoperator of exhausted
soils, and 'at the same time find it
better adapted to our climate and
circumstances than the cowpen. As
it grOws much more rapidly than red
clover, whether', from the seed or
roou; and seems to thrive so well on
sterile soils, apparently , growing by
preference in such places. it would
seern,well worthy of trial as a green , '
manuring crop. A further reason
for a more general examination 'of
the merits of the melilothan has
yet been made in this cou try, is the
il ld
probable failure of the , clover
from the depredations of be Euro
pean Clover beetle, wbich, according
to the statements of Professor Bar
nard, in the report of the Corned
University Experiment Station, is
already threatening the total des
truction of that crop in some sections
of New York.
Care of Farm Buildings.
That the condition of the buildings
and fences on a farm have a great
deal to do with =the impression of
value which it, makes on visitors is
proved by a case which came under
my observation. A man came into
our neighborhood to purchase a farm.
There were two fot sale. These
farms were of .about equal value so
far as the quality, of the soil was con
cerned, and were of the same size.
One wis owned by a man who work
ed his fields well and raised fine crops
bat be paid but little attention to
the condition of his buildings and,
fences. His house needed a fresh
coat of paint. His barn looked out
at the elbows. His fences were bad
ly in need of repair, The impression
which one received, in riding by was,
that this place was not a„prosperous
One. True, the fields showed good
'crops, but the impression of unthritt
iness remained. The other farm be
longed to a man who was careful to
see that whenever a fence needed
repair, that, repair was made. His
house was kept well painted. There
were no loose and flapping boards on
barns or sheds. Everything had a
neat and tidy look. The consequence
was, that after looking he two places
over carefully, the marl' bought this
farm and gave considerably more for
it than he could have get the olAek.
for. It was no more fertile. it had
hardly the same advantages of loca
tion. it was no larger, but everything
about it was in . good condition and
it conveyed to him, as to others, an
idea of this fitness and prosperity,
and this attention to little things
brought to its former owner a snug
little sum of money, which repre
sented the difference in value between
the farm whose houses and fences
are properly cared for and the-farm
un which but little attention is given
to such matters.

Few farmers know the size of their
fields or how many acres they con
tain. A field of the writer's before
it came into his possession, had been
plowed and reaped by contract for
fifteen acres. On measuring it, it
was found to have but twelve acres.
It is desirable, in fact, indispensable
for good' work, that a farmer should
know how many acres each field con
tains, for otherwise be unnot appor
tion seed or manure for it, nor can
he tell how much time it should re
quire to be plowed. A measuring
cord should_ be part of the furniture
of every tarm To make-one, pro
cure sixty seven feet of strong rope,
onei. inch around ' . make a loop or
faseen a . ring or a bar at each end,
and, make these precisely, sixty-six
feet apart. This is four rods. - Then
tie a piece of red rag in the centre.
One acre of ground will I.e a piece
four of the chords (chains) long and
two and one-half wide, equal to six
teen by ten rods, m eking one hund
red and sixty square rods, or one
acre. The advantage of the ring or
loop is that one person can measure
alone by driving a stake in the
ground to hold the rope while he
stretches it out.. The rope should
be soaked in tar and dried which
will prevent it from shrinking when
wet.--Rural New Yorker.

About Watering
_Hones.
A. horse flee& much more -water
during the ' day and at night than
most persons suppose. When a horse
needs water, if - he does not receive
the needed supply, we. have no idea
of the intense suffering which the
poor creature must endure. After a
horse has been driven until he per-
spires profusely,_there will be an im- •
perative demand for water to supply
the place of the liquid that has pass
ed oft through the pores of -the skin;
and after a horse has filled his stom
ach with dry feed, a Rule water' is •
needed to promote digestion, espe
cially when the animal did not re- ,
eeive a ,generbus supply . before
be was fed. When the stomach
and bowels need more water they
wilt have it, if the supply must be
taken out of the skin. But when the
digestive organs must draw exten
sively on water that is secreted "in
the Vesues of the flesh and muscles,
we cannoteompute.the great injury
that must follow such an:unnatural .
way of obtaining a supply of water,
which , is absolutely needed, to pro
mdte healthful and complete' diges- -
thin.
erhe digestive organs cannot per
form their proper functions without
water, any more than a fire can be
made without 'Wood or coal. As the
stomach of a horse is exceedingly
small when compared with the first
stomach, or rumen, of, meat cattle,
we perceive the' vast importance of
supplying a little watee l , and often,
rather than to pertnit" the thirsty ,
brute to swallow severki s i gallons at'
one draught only once pr twice dur
ing twenty-tour hours. , t' During a pe
riod of more than fifty ; Years past I
have taken personal care of horses,'
have owned and mired' horses,- . and
have never had a sick horse or one
injured or disabled, My rule is now,
and ever has been, to water, feed and •
take good care of my horees before
seek refreshments and comfort for
myself. When horses • are watered
frequently, they will dri,ik only a •
few quarts at one draught. This is
infinitely better than to
_allow them
to gulp down at one draught two or
three pailfuls. It is better to let a
horse drink at least-a pailful before
eating than to drink copiously after
his meal.. A. large quantity of water
after feeding will Often drive much
of the feed from the stomach before
it.is half digested.—S.E. T., in Evan.
