In the Stccrngc. One who ha made a trip in the steer age of an ocean steamer gives us some idea of its discomforts. He says after passing the doctor we went below to ar ranges our possessions, and the first meal on board was supplied us. With a great can each, the steward and his assistant catue round and ladled out soup to all who called for it. There is oatinnal and pearl barley in it, which thickens it slightly, otherwise it is no better than the soup I have seen supplied in the French prisons. Afterwards, in another great can, the meat was brought down, cut up into slices and lumps, and served by the aid of a fork and lingers. A dirty hand full of potatoes was thrust toward me. They were more filthy than when dragged out of mother earth. I did not wonder when subsequently I saw the way in which they were prepared. A sack of potatoes was hauled up from the stores, dragged to tho galley, emptied into the copper, when cooked they were emptied back into the same sack and dragged down to tho steerage ana turned into the cans for serving out. I have seen horses and hounds in England served more decently than the emigrants were, and what makes this worse is that in many cases the food, was good and there was a wasteful supply of it, but the cooking and serving out made each meal repulsive to the most hardened stomach. Tea was served out in the steerage shortly alter six . o'clock. The tea was simply without taste, but with a large amount of grease floating dh the top of the hot water which composed it. The butter was good, but the bread very bod and sour, and so it continued all during the voyage, for the very good reason that the bakers were always drunk and frequently fighting in the galley. It was late at night, and we were well down the channel before I summoned up courage to go " forrad " and make my way down to the steerage. At the bot tom of tho stairs, I gasped for breath. I made my way to my berth, and, climb ing in, laid down on my rugs. It was horriblp, simply unendurable. Touching me on each side were two of the mass of snoring, groaning, perspiring humanity. I could not contemplate sleep ; I thought, after a moment, that I must be suffo cating, and flew to the deck, where I passed the night undcr-the cover of the hurricane deck forward. The next morning we were well out at sea. I early took my can to the pump to obtain my allotted three quarts of water. A washing-place was provided in the latrines, but as they were always crowded, a good many al fresco toilets were made on deck. 1 found my water can worthless ; but this did not materi ally matter, as there was no difficulty in obtaining water at any time from the pumps, at which a sailor was always placed. Breakfast was coffqe (sweet, dirty, greasy water), sour bread, and butter. The morning was one of horrors ; the demon of seasickness was abroad, and men, women and children lay on the deck (to which they were all banished for an hour after breakfast, that the sailors might ventilate and sweep the steerages) like animals, all sense of thame or decency lost in the agony they en dured. At Queenstown we took in some eighty passengers, all boisterous and many drunk ; but only a short delay ensued, for everything that seamanship, steam, and sail can do were to be brought to bear on this trip, as many heavy bets were pending in Liverpool on the result of it as to bpeed. Shortly after getting outside Queenstown we were driven aft and our tickets collected, a search at the same time being made for " stowaways," three boys and one man being found, and set to work their passage. The demon of sea-sickness was soon abroad, the next day, worse than ever. Few of the pas ses gers were hardy eneugh to take din ner that day. One meal was the same as another. The provisions, in many cases good and wholesome, and in ample quantity, but spoiled by the want of proper cookery, was served out as if to pigs. One of the officers of tho ship suid to me, afterward : " Before I could touch food served out like that, I would lie down and die of starvation." For two days I tried the experiment ; hunger could not force me to eat ; but after that I thought I had dono enough to prove personally what I write about. The possession of gold everywhere inspires respect, and I am glad that I was not only able to live well myself, but also that I could procure many " comforts " for helpless women and children. It was some days before I ventured down the aft steerage devoted to married couples and single women. According to the contract, I expected to find them in separate reoms, but such was not the case. With the exception that their steerage was on the first deck, it was the enlarged counterpart of the forward one. On one side were the married couples' berths, on the other side the single wo men's ; not the slightest separation be tween them ; not even a curtain or screen at the little passages between the berths, which at least would havo allowed the single women to dress in semi-privacy. Consequently, all the decent women did not remove their dresses during the voy age, as the married men and the stewards would be passing about at all hours. Ventilatiox of gnors. I am well aware ventilation has bothered the lead ing architects of the kingdom, as witness the experiments with the House of Com mons and our law Courts. The simpler the truth, the more likely is it to be overlooked. All that, in fact, is neces sary to promote a constant change of cir culation is that the quarter toward which the air sets in should be cooler than that from which it is drawn. Thus, let the sun beat ever so fiercely on a dra per's shop and be reflected with any amount of intensity from opposite build ings, or from asphalt or stone pavement, provided that the air entering the door can eventually find some escape upward, where the cool air acts as a magnet, there will be that perpetual movement which induces coolness. But tho point of es cape must be sheltered from the sun. Many a draper having extended his shop to what was formerly ' a garden, and raised a skylight over the addition is sur prised to find that the air in his shop continues still and close. The secret is that the gun still beats on his skylight ; that the air behind is just as warm as the air before, and there is neither action nor reaction. In other cases where the skylight is protected from the sun, there is a continual procession of air, and, let me add, there are few things cooler than air in motion.

Each Italian city has its characteristic type of beggars, though none is without specimens of all tu they aro a wander ing race, and move to where charities aro most abundant. Home, however, is the capital of beggardom. In Venice they ply their art in gondolas. In Flo rence they dress in filthy rags, whine pitcously, expose infants, and train bright-eyed young girls to waylay strangers, demanding alms with a perti nacity proof against all repulse, though liable to the penalties of the law j in fact, throughout Tuscany they are the dirtiest and most beggarly set of beggars Italy can show. At the entrance of Yassieux's reading-room, a white-haired old man, bent with age, his clothes hanging to gether by scanty stitches, is to be seen sitting in one position, and always in the same spot; for years he has been thus ; he never speaks, but, as the visi tors pass, meekly bows his head silent if he receives a copper, and equally si lent if disappointed. His dumb appeal is not without its fruts. A more ex pressive image of venerable patience, poverty, and humility the imagination never conceived j and yet, I presume, tho old dodge, like Beppo, the legless, ro guish king of beggars at Rome, is rich, and able to dower his daughters, if he have any. In Naples they beg from the fun of it j bright-eyed, merry boys, full of Ufa and activity, or lnzoroni, up to a thousand tricks to excite compassion and gain the trifling sum that will feed them for a week, while, for a bed, stone steps or a basket aro sufficiently comfortable. But at Naples they are nearly all ready to do any thing but actual labor to unloose your purse-strings ; they will lie, cheat, or steal as temptation offers, and, if it please you, dance, sing, engulf macaroni, and play the jacknapes after the drollest fashion possible. There is fun and mis chief in their begging which half-disguises its viciousness. Beggary in Italy is elevated to the rank of an occupation. Men and women are borne, and die beggars, as their pa rents before them. This class appears the more numerous, because they have the art of multiplying themselves, as it wore, interminably. They are the car rion crows of benevolence. They strip it te its very bones, and scent their game afar off. There is no end to their dis guises and ailments. Proteus-like, they change their rags and diseases to suit every phase of charity. With an ubiqui ty that savors of marvelousness they are here, there, and everywhere at tho same instant ; now lame, then dropsical, all at the once minus an eye, arm, or leg, cov ered with sores, rheumatic, crimped by age or famished by hunger j surrounded by nursing, starving children ; assuming every shape of disease or deformity, with crutches and all the outward appeals to sympathy, they excite terror and disgust as often as charity. There is no disguis ing their barefaced imposition. If their imperfections are real, the eighteen hos pitals of Rome are ample for their relief. But they are like Bedouins in their hab its, and prefer the plunder of the public to the legitimate relief of their wants. They are to be seen chiefly on the steps of the churches, when not begging, swearing, card-playing, or sleeping from morning to night ; tcJiere they then re tire to, no decent mortal may know. In contrast with these are the genteel beggars ; counts and countesses, veiled ladies in black, who haunt theatres ; others in gayer costumes, who track you to your homes ; all begging under some pretext or other, and grateful for a half dollar, when, from their appearance, you feel ashamed to offer tho man an eagle. I have had a well-dressed gentleman ap proach me in the street, bow with great courtesy, apologize for fnterrupting me, and then go on to inform me that he was of the higher classes, but had lost his money, and would be thankful for a " mcszo-ba iocco," h alf-een t ! Lad ies, t oo, so grateful as to kiss your hands for a half dime ! The degradation in such cases is too deep for tho poverty to bo wholly genuine. A Remarkable Suit. Many people who have read Dickens' novel of " Bleak House," and tho pres sure of chancery suits upon the minds of people who sought to right their wrongs through them, thought the pic tures overdrawn, and yet " Miss Flite," who never became discouiaged after re peated defeats, and never faltered until at last she had her case decided on the " Day of Judgment," and Richard, w"io sank into insanity and tho grave were hardly more pitiable victims of tho fric tion and crosses that are incurred by lit igation, than is George W. Purdy, of Marlborough, N. Y., who for ten years has been in tho constant heat of legal struggle. His suit has benn with one of his neighbors, Robert A. Kerr, who, in 1S.'9, leased a farm from Elisha Purdy, George's father, for a period of five years with a covenant to convey the property if Kerr paid $10,000 and all arrearages of rent at any time during the first threo years of the term. The next year" Mr. Purdy died, leaving a widow and five children. Kerr purchased the interest of two of the children in 1871, and in 18G2, on the last day of the threo years, he offered to pay the other children and the widow all the back rents and their share of the $10,000, at the same time demanding a deed. He did not have the money and they refused to convey un less compelled to. Kerr then commenc ed suit, and it has run through all possi ble forms and varieties, being decided and the decision appealed from time and again, the last and recent conclusion be ing a refusal to compel a conveyance. The property "has grown in valae until it now involves as much as $00,000. Purdy's brain has been so affected by the long struggle, that last summer he attempted to kill his mother and sisters and was sent to the insane asylum, from which he has just been released. Foul Cell ars. In North Cambridge, Mass., a whole family of eight persons was found to be prostrated by typhoid fever with no one left to assist them or even to call in aid. The bottom of the cellar was found t. be covered to the depth of several inches with slime and filth, out of which the disease had sprung and well nigh destroyed the people who let it breed there. How many such cel lars might be hunted up Y The noosAC Tunnel. The progress of the Hoosao tunnel during September was as follows : East end, 1 1 2 feet ; west end, 65 feet ; central shaft, 105 : total, 301 feet. Total length opened to Octo ber 1 ; east end, llUMoteet: central shaft, east, 1,233 feet; west, 339 feet; west end, 8,298 feet ; making a total of 20,809 feet ; leaving 6G9 feet between the east end and central shaft, and 1,007 feet between the west end and central shaft. A Question Answered. "Can you give mo a remedy for the falling out ot the hair Y I am only thir teen years of age and my hair is falling out in spots. My head is free from erup tions, and my eyebrows are getting quite thin I have been told that it is a para site. Inform me what a parasite is Y" Ant. A parasite, in the sense alluded to, is defined to bo " an animal that lives during the whole or a part of its exist ence on the body of some other animal." The flea, for instance, is a common para site of the slog. As regards the human huir, it is often destroyed by a littlo creature called the ttcatotoon fulliailonim, a nuisance which makes its appearance on the scalp, where the sebaceous folli cles often coincide with the hair follicles, and in many other cases empty their con tents into the latter. In plainer lan guage, the oily substance secreted by the skin, on the head, oozes through the mi nute orifices in which grow the hairs. In these orifices tiny warms, named as above, make their home. They are, ex cept in size, very like caterpillars, and have "a distinct head with feelers, a chest with four pairs of legs, and a long tail." The small black spots soon on the faces of some people, and which are so often " squeezed out," are closely related in nature to this parasite of tho scalp. Tho latter feeds and thrives on tho oily matter that exudes through these open ings or follicles on the skin of the head, and then gnaws off tho hair, probably for additional exercise. Ono writer on this subject, Dr. B. C. Ferry, says : ' I havo often found mas ter Hteatozoon cluod to a hairshaft. iust above the surface of the scalp to which point he may have been conveyed from within the follicle by the natural growth of tho hair and have observed with ad miration the affectionate tenacity of his hold, which usually withstands not only stiff brushes, but the finest comb, and seems eternal. Nothing but the absolute destruction of tho hair, root, and shaft seems to satisfy this ardent creature, which clings closer and closer, and at length arrives at such a pitch of fervor that the hair, I must presume, is fairly squeezed to death in its embrace." The same authority adds : " Whenever it appears, the hair becomes dry and brit tle, and, if naturally dark, assumes a yel lowish hue or a variegated mixturo of the old and the new shades, and presently begins to fall. A peculiarity of this de structive action is, that thn Lair is never afterwards reproduced. It may be that, having oaten its way into tho hollow in terior of the shaft, it pours in somo pois onous substance which finds its way to the roots and destroys the apparatus em ployed in evolving tho hair, or paralyses the nerve of the papula that vitalises the atoms which enter into its o riginal for mation. The little pest which is able to achieve this deplorable result, is of rath er a bluish tinge, and resembles a nit in size, but not in color or shape. Though he triumphs signally over such means of a mechanical nature as are employed to remove him, he quickly succumbs to a solution of 11yd. Bichlor., a few applica tions sufficing both to destroy him and counteract tho effects of his poisou." How It Has Discovered. Fifty years ago there lived in Munich an artist and author, one Aloys Senefol- der. Having stated his profession and his country, it is needless to add that he was poor. .Publishers would not pub lish for him, amateurs would not buy his pictures ; so Aloys tound that Art, though a delightful mistress, was a bad house keeper, and accordingly betook himself to the feet of invention. He experi mented in engraving, and fabricated an ink which was capable of resisting the action of those acids used by engravers when they etched on copper. He devo ted himself to experimenting with this ink on copper plates, hoping that he had discovered a means of facilitating the art of engraving. To buy copper plates, however, requires a purseful of other metals, and after many trials Aloys found that ho had neither copper in plate or coin remaining. In this dilem ma he cast about for some other medium on which he could pursue his experi ments at a less cost, and bethought him self of a ceitain species of stone called Kilheim btone, which was capable of be ing highly polished, and was none the worse for failures, as it could be polished over again. On these stones, cheaply obtained, he drew and etched, and dreamed each day of that splendid for tune which all of us behold gleaming dimly in the Future. One day, when he was without a kreutzer to rattle against the solitary one that lay in the bottom of his pocket, a literary job-was propos ed to him, for which a slight remunera tion wag offered. Some humble friend, innocent of tho art'of writing, proposed that Aloys should draw up a washing bill. History does not give us the name of this liberal employer, but we are justified in presuming that the person in question was his laundress, and that Aloys worked out in this way a month's clean linen. Having no paper by him, poor fellow I he roughly wrote the items in his cherished ink upon one of his Kilheim stones. The idea then seized him of taking an impression of the document from the stone on paper. He tried and succeeded. Thug it was that the art of lithography was invented an art intimately connected with the comic literature of the present day. In directly we are indebted to a laundress and a poor author for tho Charivari and La Caricature. A Wicked Drink. Absinthe, the most pernicious of stimulants, which is consumed to an enormous extent in France, and especially in Paris, was almost unknown except as a medicinal agent before the Algerian expedition un der the reign of Louis Philippe. In Oran and Constantino fever made such sad havoc in the ranks of the army, and the doctors recommended the soldiers to mix absinthe, which is the bitter extract of wormwood, with their wine as a preser vative against miasmata in lieu of qui nine, which was too costly to be generally distributed. During the whole of the campaign the army drank this mixture, and also mixed absintho with their brandy. The habit wag retained by the troops after their return to France, and the liquor now known as aVsinthe first became a popular drink in Marseilles. Thence it advanced slowly throughout France, and has finally become the fa vorite' drink of the country, though its effects upon the health, and especially upon the brain, are of the most delete rious character. In Cayenne, New Cal edonia, and other French colonies, its consumption is very great. There the colonists drink it undiluted in excessive quantities, and the consequence has been a trigbttul increase in the rates of mor tality. As a means of sure and speedy suicide, absinthe is scarcely excelled by strychnine. AGRICULTU11A L Fowls i Orchards. The public hag yet to learn the full advantage of keep ing poultry, rew mem 10 appreciate what they may do among trees in an orchard.. Let any one try them in an orchirdof a quarter of an acre where they may be kept by a picket fence four or five feet high ; put in say 125 fowls, and ob serve tho result. They will avoid an noyance in the garden, of which so many complain, while they work amid tho trees, doing just what is needed and de stroying everything that'ean injure the fruit trees, in the shape of bugs, worms, and other insects, and lay a large num ber of eggs, which are a cosh article, to say nothing of the chickens, which pay well for raising at the present time. I have about 100 fowls which have worked admirably among my trees, keeping the ground in gdod condition, keeping off the insects, and promoting the growth of the orchard. I am satisfied that we have yet to learn the full benefit which may be derived from the proper management of fowls ; and it is quite possible that the method I have suggested may offer the bcBt way of getting our apple orchards in good bearing condition. Farmer' Home' Journal. Assorting Farm Products. N. R. G., a young farmer who writes to the Rural New Yorker, says that ho " wants to begin right in the marketing of what he produces," and asks for advice, is urg ed to adopt the following rules : 1. Grade all products sold as of first, second and third quality. 2. Sell for first quality only that which is " A No. 1 ;" and strive to make all your products reach that grado. 3. Put your name and address on all packages, so that if they are found just as represented your name will be asso ciated with them. This will help make you a reputation. 4. Never allow a poor article to go off your farm with your name attached, un less with a true statment of its quality. 5. Remember that it is cheaper to buy the best, do-all things in the best way, and profitable to be known as producing and selling the best that it is iust as valuable to you that a customer finds that what you say is Becond or third class is so, as to find you tell the truth when you brand your produce as first clas3. Labor to get an honest name in market, and, that gained, you will have a pass port to prosperity and wealth, provided you are strictly vigilant in guarding it. Sewage Farms not Offensive. The plan of spreading tho sewage of largo towns on the surface of the land has been strongly opposed on various grounds, but on none more vigorously than that it would be a disgusting nuisance to the whole surrounding country. This turns out to have been a mere bugbear, actual trial in several localities in England showing that it is not attended with any such result. Lord Warwick, near whose park were two sewage farms, so tar from finding them a nuisance, has contracted for an additional amount of sewago to be placed on his lands, on account of its fertilizing properties. He says that 2,000,000 gallons of sewage daily are spread over 500 acres of land, and yet it is no nuisance whatever; and he has agreed to take the sewage from the towns of Warwick and Leamington for thirty years, paying therefor upwards of $2,000 a year. Best Food for Horses. A Connec ticut clergyman, after careful estimates and, experiments, gives the following tables for feeding horses : " For flesh, Indian meal six quarts a day, sprinkled on hay, cut from four to six inches long; feed three times a day. For speed, long hay, sprinkled with water ; oats, twelve quarts, always dry ; feed three times a day." How to Measnro Land. Land can be measured with satisfactory accuracy for many purposes by pacing. r ivo paces are equui 10 one uneai rod. A man having long legs will usually measure more than a rod at five paces, while a short legged man will be obliged to step unnaturally long to measure a rod at five paces. The correct way is to measure 1G 1-2 feetonlevol ground, then practice guaging the steps until one can measure one rod at every livo steps. Then one hundred steps or paces will be equal to twenty rods. If a plot of land be two hundred paces long and fifty paces wide, call every five paces a rod, multiply the rods in length by the num ber of rods in width, and divide tho product by 1G0, the square rods in an acre. Thus : 100 paces 20 rods, and 50 paces 10 rods, or 10 by 20, 200 square rods, which divided by 100, 1 1-4 acres, A square acre is about 208 feet 8 3-4 inches on every side. In order to lav out a strip of land twico as long as the width the longth must be 417 feet 5 inches, and the width 104 feet 4 inches. Twenty feet front and 2178 feet deep one acre. Twenty-five feet front and 173 feet deep one acre. Thirty feet front and 1432 feet deep ono acre. Thirty-threo feet front and 1329 feet doep one acre. Fifty feet front and 871 feet deep one acre. One hundred feet front and 435 feet ddop one acre. In one square acr there are 43,500 superficial feet; 010 acres make one square milo; 1G0 acres equal a quarter section. If a plw turns a furrow-slice one foot wide, a team must travel about eight and one-third miles to plow ono acre. When rows of corn aro three feet apart and the horse shoe is drawn once botweon every two, a horse must travol 1 1-2 miles to finish every acre. Hindoo Caste. The distinctions of caste are a great obstacle to free, social and friendly intercourse in India, Among the wealthy it is a frequent prac tice and a work of great merit to give dinners to Brahmins, but the person who gives the dinner, if he is not a Brahmin, cannot eat with them or even be one of their company without eating. His presence in tho company would pollute all the -food, and make it unfit for any Brahmin to eat He can only look from gome distance upon those who are feast ing npan his liberality, and who will not allow him at whose expense they are eating and he may be a prince, too to come near them, lest his presence should pollute the tood which they are eating, 13 ut among those of the same caste, eat ing together is a strong bond of union, Dinners are frequent, and are regarded as evidenco of good standing in the caste. While a man is under censure of his caste, or any accusation of haviner viola ted any of its rules, he is excluded from all caste dinners and ceromonies, and this is felt to be a great reproach and pun- uuuieui. Nicknamed Minors. The coal-miners of the Black Country are fund of giving nicknames to each other. Such names as "Old Oss," "Straight Hair," "Punch," "The Tur nip," " Snowy," etc.,, are common, and, what is very remarkable, these names are go generally used, that the real names are lost sight of. Many anecdotes might be collected to show the great difficulty of discovering a person in the colleries without being in possession of his nick name. We quoto one, which may be taken for what it is worth. " A respec table attorney, during his clerkship, wag Bent to serve some legal process on a man whose name and address were given to him with legal accuracy. Ho traversed the village to which he had been directed from end to end without success; and after spending many hours in the search, was about to abandon it in despair, when a young woman who had witnessed his labors kindly undertook to make inqui ries for him, and began to hail her friends for that purpose.
