As nmnnre is the life of nil successful farming the neglect to make, save, and, compost nil vegetable and animal refuse bo as to save their organio elements from waste, causes the most crying fail ures of success in tilling the soil. I here give the formula of a North Car olina farmer who says he made more than two hundred cart-loads of manure nt a cost of $30, which paid him better than three tons of commercial mnnure had done which cost him 150. The compost was made of about half vege table swamp muck, one-fourth shell marl, and one-fourth stable and farm- J-iml dung and ashes. He says : I muled last rear vegetable muck which had been dried two months to save weight in cartage, this I spread on my barn-yard nnd mixed with it the shell marl together with ten loads of forest leaves and all the stable manure I had, adding sundry wheelbarrow loads of hog-pen mnnure. This wns worked over three times during the winter, and mixed each time with thirty bushels of rotten wood ashes. To rrmke this com post still more effective, he says bone dust should be added to the pile, as then it would soon become soluble, and he might add that a few hundred weight of sulphate of lime (ground plaster) would also increase the efficacy of the compost. But with his compost he made three crops in one season, and the last ho says was better than the first. He is of opinion that good commercial manures, if properly composted and applied to the soil, will pay triple the outlay, as it enables us to make big crops on little land, and without bring ing in weeds. Clean Secti. As a rule, those farmers who are the most careful in cleaning their seed grains, and the most thorough in their cultivation, have the fewest weeds to contend with ; and such are the most fully compensated in the end for their pains. One of the most prolific sources of the spread of weeds is sowing direct ly from the threshing machine ; for however well these machines clean the grain for market purposes and the better classes of them do it admirably still there is no power machine that will clean seed in so thorough a manner as to to lit it for sowing. This, how ever, may be accomplished by careful cleaning by the more modern fans, hav ing sieves adopted to the various sizes and shapes of seeds, and perfectly con trolled by the blast given. With the use of these we have often secured a large advance over the ordinary market price, on account of the seed been per fectly clean. One of the most difficult seeds to se parate from the grain is cockle and chess ; and to do so thoroughly, it is necessary to have proper sieves for separating these from the good grain, since the specific gravity of these seeds is very nearly that of barley, rye, nnd wheat. In the case of chess, the pecu- liar torm ot the seed being long, like wheat nnd rve renders it ecpecially difficult of separation. But with the modern fans, but little difficulty will be experienced in their separation, nnd the value of the seed will be thereby much enuanceu. Exchange. Square Cheese. Certain pnrties in New York, who linve manufactured the rectangular cheese for two or three years past, have been eminently successful, nnd the cheese hns sold for a better price than that received for the usual round shape, That a radical change in the shape of cheese, from round to square, should meet with opposition nnd prejudice, wns to be expected, but we see no good reason why the square or rectangular shape should not be as well received by consumers ns the others. Indeed, in cutting, it has decided advantages, and there is less waste and the pieces are in a more comely shape for the table, Again, in putting up for market, square packages are much less expensive than round, while they take up less space in storing or in being carried to market. Some factories, howevevr, have entered upon the manufacture of square cheeses nnd have failed ; or at least, have had much trouble in pressing, bandaging and in the care of the cheese, nnd have, therefore, pronounced against it m strong terms. So far as we can learn, the troubles have come from imperfect molds used in pressing, nnd from not understaning all the processes nnd manipulations which belong to the treatment of this kind of cheese. No one should attempt to make square cheese unless fully pro vided with suitable apparatus and spe cially instaucted in the management of the cheese. A'. A. Willard, in Rural JSew x orkrr. How Fowls Feed. Grain fed to fowls is received into the crop, where it is slightly soaked, and then it passes into tin second stom ach, or pro-ventriculus (Vegetnieier), where it is saturated with the gastric juice, thence to the gizzard whert, it is ground and afterward assimilated. may add that it is this second stomach which is the test of hunger, as a fowl's crop may be pefectly full nnd yet the bird be very hungry owing to some stoppage in the channel between the crop and second stomach. Your cor respondent is however perfectly correct that no grain ever passes unground from a healthy fowl, so perfect is the operation of that beautiful muscular machine which grinds even the pebbles usea in grinding the food. Earth's Highest Spot. The highest inhabited spot in the world is the Budhist cloister of Hanle, in Thibet, where twenty-one priests live at an altitude of 16,500 feet. The brothers Schlagintweit, when they ex plored the glaciers of the Ibi Gamin in the same country, encamped at 21,000, the highest altitude at winch a .Euro pean ever passed the night. Even nt the top of Mount Blano Professor Tyn dall's guides found it very unpleasant to do this, though the Professor him self did not confess to feeling as bad as they. The highest mountain in the world heretofore supposed to be Gaurisankar, in Thibet is now said to be Mount Everest, in the same range. It is 29,003 feet, and the condor has been seen "winging the blue air" 500 feet higher. ' Au Indian told up at Leech Lake, Minn., that the way he gat whiskey in Brainerd was as follows : They got up in the rear of the buildings, where there are two holes in the wall ; out of one hole an arm is thrusj to receive the money and jug, and out of the other hole the whiskey governed in quantity by the amount of money received through the first hole referred to was passed by another arm. The face of the seller is never seen, but the Indian said that generally the one that took the money was other than the one that passed out the whiskey, showing two persons engaged in it. Tho Pownoes and Sioux. The Fight on the "crond-Tho OcaN llah'e Side of the Slorjr. The following official letter, having reference to tho Sioux-rawnee battles, was fowarded from Sidney, by Col. George A. Woodward, Fourteenth In fantry, nnd was received at the Military Headquarters of tho Department of the Platte, in Omaha, Nebraska, on Tues day, 12th inst. : Ociat,atiT,att, Sioux Camp, ) White Man's Four, Aug. 5, 1873. J Col. Woodward, Commanding fot. 6'idncy, ATcl. : Sir: On the morninsr of the second of this month six Ogalallah Sionx In dians came in from a scout and reported the Pawnees in camp on the Ree fork of the Republican. The news created great excitement m camp, nnd the Sioux decided to go and tight them be fore they had time to attack our camp. Little Wound came up to me nnd asked if I hni any orders to keep him from going to fight them. "I told him I had not. He said he had orders not to go to their reservation or among the whites to fight them, but had no orders in re gard to this part of the country. I told mm 1 would go with mm tnnd see the Pnwnees, but he said it would be of no use, as the young men had determined to fight, and no one could stop them. They say I prevented them from going to the Utes, and they came up and stole their horses and killed one of their men, and they thought the same thing would occur if thev did not strike the Paw nees first. They started out on the 3d, nnd were joined by the Brnles from Mr. Estis' camp, nnd proceeded to the Paw nee camp. On the morning ol the h they came on a camp of about thirty lodges. They were just moving camp when the Sioux charged them. The Pawnees killed nre variously estimated from 50 to 118, mostly women and children. Most of the, men were absent, nnd the , Sioux suppose they were out hunting. The Ognlallahs took in all seven prisoners three women and four children, nil girls, from two to ten years old. The Indi nns whq linve the prisoners are Black Bear, Torn Belly, Mad Horse, Black Hawk, Grey Eve's son-in-law, Flying Hawk, nnd Little Blue Shield. A white man by the name of John Williamson had charge of the Pawnees. They fought bravely, but the Sionx out numbered them, having 500 or 600 men. This report is as near ns I can get at the number of killed from the Indians. The Pawnees will know the exact num ber they lost. Black Bear has express ed his willingness to give up his prison er if the Government desire it,' and I think the others will undoubtedly do the same. Your obedient servant, Axtoine Janis.

According to the Boston Journal of Commerce, a new enterprise has been initiated on the coast of Massachusetts, from which important results ore confi dently hoped by the projector. This has reference to the propogation of lob sters, which are believed to be rapidly diminishing in number on the New Eng land coast, as they certainly have in average size. Although several States impose severe penalties upon parties who may capture or offer for sale spawn ing lobsters, yet the law is practically a dead letter. In the experiment referred to it is said that an arm of fbe sea, with a deep channel in the centre, has been dammed up so as to flood about thirty acres, an archway being left in the dike to' permit a proper ebb and flow of the tide. The passage-way being narrow, the amount of water that runs out in a tide does not very materially affect the interior pond; but the exchange of water is just enough to keep the whole pure. In July and August of 1872 it is said that 40,000 lobsters of different ages were placed in the pond, and food, in the Shape of refuse fish from the mar ket, supplied to them. In the ensuing winter it was ascertained that good, sizable, hard-shell lobsters were nbnn dant in the pond, and some 15,000 males were taken out and sold at good prices. The females, when captured, were all duly returned to the water. The experiment continues to -136. suc cessful the present year, and it is said that the water swarms with younglob; sters, and that there is every rfrp'spect of a very great increase. Nothing is mentioned of the precise locality of this experiment, but if the story be genuine, there would seem to be nothing to pre vent a successful result from similar enterprises elsewhere. One difficulty to be anticipated will be from the vo racity of the lobsters in destroying each other; nnd it is by no means certain that, when a certain average to the cubic yard is reached, a mutual destruc tion will not take place, such ns pre vents the economical rearing of spiders for their silk, consequent upon their destructiveness when confined together, Varieties in Fashions. A loosely waved tress of false hnir is now worn across the head, just above the forehead. This pretty fashion is welcomed by ladies who have burned or worn on their front hair m frizzing it, ns this enables them to smooth away their own front hair out of sight, and let it grow lone enough to be parted in the middle and drawn back in classic stvle. A novelty in vogue aboard is rough looking gimp and fringej said to be made of common twine. It is used for trim ming Turkish toweling, bamboo, flax linen, and other ecru fabrics. Mosses are much used for trimming ball dresses of white tulle or tarlatan. Other summery garlands are of green leaves nnd intertwined vines with a deep fringe of white hyacinths, harebells, or lilies-of-the-valley. The fringe edges over-skirts and head flounces. For protecting the facing of skirts that drag on the ground an inner facing is now used of dark oil cloth or morocco bound with braid. It is more substan tial than the pleated wigging, which is so soon discolored and worn out. It costs twenty-five cents a yard. Two yards are sufficient for a skirt, as it is only placed on the back breadths. Belts with pockets attached, and tra veling bags made of alligators' skins, are the most novel importations of the week, and are said to be the caprice of the season abroad. This leather is a light ecru color, with many irregular in dentations, and is mounted with gilt, oxidized silver, or Russia leather. Scarfs of thin white India cotton and of bamboo, with gay Roman bars for borders, are tied around black or white hats, worn in the country by young ladies. Those with black striped bor ders and fringe are also very stylish. An Immense Tunnel. It is proposed to construct a railroad tunnel under the river Hnmber, in Eng land, which will be 2,850 yards long. It will begin at Bessie, on one side of the river, and terminate at Barton, in North Lincolnshire. The curve of the tunnel will be ten feet below the river bed, and as this consists of sand, the work will be done by means of the pneumatic pro cess. In carrying it forward, three working vessels will bo provided. The dimensions of these will be 100 feet in length by 42 in width, and 23 feet in depth. The upper half will consist of a pontoon and the lower half of a working chamber or diving bell. This working chamber will suffice for the construction of 160 feet in length of a double tunnel in one portion. The success will be, first, to span the working vessel over the site of the tunnel; then to sink it to the bed of the river by the admission of water into the pontoon; and, thirdly, to expel the water from the lower portion, or diving bell, by foroing the air, when workmen will enter the chamber and excavate the ground for the construction of the 100 feet length Of tunnel. When the work ing vessel has been sunk through the material of the bed of the river to the depth of the inlet of the proposed tun nel, bricklayers will enter and commence to build the tunnel. When completed. the working vessel will be withdrawn and sunk nt another spot for the execn lion oi a further length. The joining up of the isolated lengths of the tunnel will tie effected as the working vessel is being from time to time withdrawn from the bed of the river. The machinery for supplying the required air and pressure to keep the diving bell portion of the apparatus free of water will be erected on a deck or table carried a sufficient height above the working neoole to be above the level of high water when the working vessel is in its lowest position. As has already been stated, the excava tions, being chiefly sand, will be remov ed by means of sand pumps, worked by tue compressed air in the diving bell. The brick and other materials will be lowered by machinery from the stage noove referred to in the working cham oer. Although the process is new in its application to a railway tunnel, yet it has been employed with success in putting in brick foundations in several parts of the world, and no doubt is felt as to its being equally successful in us new application. Chinese Duel In Arkansas, Lincoln County, says the Pino Bluff liepubucan, was the scene of a very in teresting affair in the shape of a pure and unadulterated duel between two sons of very noble families of China. It appears that for several centuries a rivalry has existed between the houses of Lak Zud Qui Camm and Au JouFiu lee Yung, gentlemen residents of Can ton up to 18C5. Many difficulties were the result of this eiiniity, and the ranks of each family became sensibly dimin ished as time elapsed. Finally the hour arrived for the Yung hatred to becomo satiated. A revolution threw it in pow er, and its rival was found among the defeated rebels. As a consequence Camm was imprisoned nnd tortured, nnd his family banished. But he made his escape, and in disguise sought his enemy, whom he found rioting in luxu ry and surrounded by a courtly throng, nnd there slew him. After renping his revenge he destroyed himself by hari kari, a suicide practiced by the nobles of the country. The banished Camms all died but Lak Zud Qui, who drifted about until he landed in Arkansas and settled in Lincoln county. By the same train of events Ah Jou Fiulee Yung, the only survivor of his illustrious house, wandered to the locality where lived his common enemy. They dwelt together for some time in total ignorance of each other's identity. But the donoument came at last, during a conversation about their afar off home, and nil the hatred of their nature was stirred up anew. The rest is soon told. They con cluded that this world could not contain them both alive, nnd silently and sadly, unknown to any one, prepared for the bloody sacrifice. They chose the dead ly Colt with which to perfect their pur pose.andjafter embracing and promising that no harm should attach to the sur vivor, they took their places, gave their own signal and fired. Camm fell dead, and the too confiding Yung now lan guishes in the hotel de Doby whither he was escorted yesterday evening by Deputy Sheriff, Captain Chas. Lyman and wonders why the law should in terfere with the private affairs of for eign gentlemen not citizens of tho United States. A Money-Borrower Drowned. There was recently living in West Troy, N. Y., says the New York Ledger, a man who was supposed to be one of the richest men in the place. He pro fessed to be very busy in making money, and was in tho habit of borrowing of anybody of whom ho could obtain a loan. He borrowed large sums of the rich and small sums of the poor, and it was thought to be a good thing to have him in one's debt, as he paid interest promptly on all his loans. liut one day, recently, this enterprising citizen was drowned, and on investigation it was discovered that his estate was hopelessly insolvent, lie was not wortli a dollar, He had actually lived and flourished on other people s money for years, borrow ing of one to pay another. His pretended money-making schemes were all shams. He bad no business except that of keep ing his fellow-citizens deluded ns to his real condition. He owed four hundred thousand dollars, and many people, rich and poor, will suffer by reason of their misplaced confidence in him. It is believed by some of his victims that, having come to the end of his powers longer to keep up his gigantic deception, the wretched man committed suicide to escape the storm ef indigna tion which he knew would burst upon him when the real facts ol the case should become known. A Baby Playing with a Black Strtp A Lehigh, county man and woman went to the hay field the other day and took their baby along and placed it in the shade. Some time after the mother noticed the child playing with a black strap, which the little one would every now and then let fall out ol the wagon and then crawl out after it, seemingly very busy with the object it had in pos session to amuse itself. Not knowing how it got the strap, she persuaded her husband to go and see what it was. im agine the father's horror and terror when, on drawing near, he found that the child was actually fondling a black snake, at least four feet in length, now wrapped around the little one s body. then again entwining itself about its neck and going through all kinds of frightful movements, its red tongue darting out of its mouth with lightning- like rapidity, and the child all the while stroking it and joyfully laughing until the tears rolled down its cheeks. The snake was killed, to the great grief of he child, ( Writing a Letter. The familv letter, says tho Danbnry Newt, is written on Sundays. The reason that day is selected is not alone because of the leisure it presents. The quiet of the day, its relief from all in fl'iences that irritate or agitate, frees the mind from irrelevant add antagon istic matter, and makes it preeminently a fit occasion for communing with dis tant loved ones. In nino cases out of ten the letter is written by the head of the family, nnd of those sent au equal proportion are addressed to his wife's folks. We don't know why it is that a man so rnrely writes to his own folks, but as it is not the province of this ar ticle to treat on that subject, we will pretend we don't care. The hour being selected for inditing the letter, the first thing is to find the paper. There is always a drawer in every well regulated family for keeping such things. It is either in the table or stand. Here the writing paper, and odd screws, and fiddle-strings, and broken locks, and fish lines, and grocery receipts are kept. There mny be other things, but if there nre, he will see them. Tho sheet of paper is finally found, the fly stains neatly scraped off, nnd the search com mences for the ink nnd pen. The for mer is invariably found on tho mantle next to the clock, and is immediately laid on the table convenient to the per spiring man, who sarcastically inquires if the letter is to be written to-day or next Sunday. This inspires the wife with new zeal in the search. She goes over the drawer again because she knows he wouldn't see anything if it was right under his nose, but the pen is not there. Then she looks over the top of the bureau, and lifts everything on the front room table, and says it seems so singular it can't be found, when she saw it only the day before, and thought about the letter. Then she goes into the pantry, and after ex ploring the lower shelf in vain, stands upon a chair and carefully goes over the top shelf where the medicine bottles and unused cans are stationed. After she has done this, she starts up. stairs, and pretty soon returns with the pen, and takes it to the sink to wash the grease from it. but does not succeed in quite effacing that delicate scent of bergamot. This leads him to observe that anybodv who would take a pen holder to lift hair grease from a bottle is too pure and innocent for this world. Everything- now in readiness, good humor is restored, the wife takes a seat opposite with her elbows on the table, and her chin in her hands, and assumes an expression of countenance that is mysteriously calculated to both encour age and depress the writer; and he grasps the pen tightly between his fin gers, and stares at the paper with an intensity that is entirely unnecessary. The date line starts off glibly, and then suddenly ceases as it reaches the date itself. Heputs theholder in his mouth, and immediately spits it out again, making a face that is in no wise sug gestive of bergamot; and pettishly asks her if she knows the day of the month. Of course she does. It is the 13th or it is the but no it must be. She hesitates, stares at him, wavers, and is lost. She don't know whether it is the 13th or 18th, but the almanac will tell, and she at once starts to hunt it up. This occasions a delay of some fifteen minutes, during which he makes ninety five passes at one fly. The date hav ing been satisfactorily settled upon, and the things which rolled over the floor, ns that stand drawer unexpectedly fell out, having been restored to their place, the date line is completed, and ".Dear mother started. The pen is a home pen, of bashful mould, and whenever it starts a line it requires half dozen passes to make it give down. All home pens do this. And all home sheets of paper have weak spots which the ink refuses to cross, thus creating some remarkable divisions of words and considerable confusion among sen tences. Some of these spots are two inches in diameter, and anybody in the next room cau tell the moment the writer comes to them, just as well as if he was looking over his shoulder. When the letter is completed, which generally occurs at the fifth hour from the commencement, it is carefully read over and supplied with absent words, and then gone over again nnd artisti cally touched up with the pen nt the bare places. Then it is folded up ready for the envelope, and the discov ery is made that there is no envelope in the house, and the letter is tucked in behind the clock until the want is sup plied.

A correspondent writing for Guilford, Uonn., beguiles the readers of the Mil waukee (Wis.) Journal of Commerce with the lollowing : "loung John Hubbard was married last week ' to lady of Stony Creek. He brought his bride from the home of her father in his own farm wagon, arriving at the sufficiently romantic hour of 1 o'clock in the morning. The bride prepared her lord's breakfast the next morning by 5 o'clock, in the apartments built on the homestead with one or two excep tions the oldest inhabited house north of St. Augustine for the accommoda tion of the young folks. The weather being fine for hay, John was soon down near Sachem's Head, about four miles away, getting his heaps ready for cart ing.

And.' as the chil dren, upon the venerable authority of Mother Goose, sing, now my story is done. How to Make a Mustard Hasten now manv people are there who really know how to make a mustard plaster ? Not one in a hundred, at the most, perhaps, and yet mustard plasters are used in every family, and physicians i ,1 i i . i 1 1 presenile meir application, never uru mg anybody how to make them, for the simple reason that doctors themselves do not, as a rule. The ordinary way is to mix the mustard with water, temper ing it with a little flour, but such a plaster ns that makes is simply abomi nable. Before it has half done its work it beeins to blister the patient, nnd lenves him finally with a painful flayed spot, after having produced far loss ei fect in a beneficial way than was intend ed. Now a mustard plaster should never cause a blister nt nil. If a blister is wnnted there are other plasters far better than mustard for the purpose. When you make a mustard plaster, then, use no water whatever, but mix the mustard with the white of an egg, nnd the result will be a plaster which will " draw " perfectly, but will not pro duce a blister even upon the skin of an infant, no matter how long it is allowed to remain upon the part. For this we have the word of an old and eminent physician, as well as our own experi ence. Steauno Heaven's Livery.

A Disease Wltti a Thousand Symptoms Dyspepsia is the most perplexing of all human ailments. Its symptoms are almost Infinite In their variety, and the forlorn and despondent vic tims of the disease often fancy themselves the prey, in turn, of every known malady. This is dne, In part, to the close sympathy which exists be twoen the stomach and the brain, and in part, also to the fact that any disturbance of the digestive functions necessarily disorders the liver, the bowels and th nervous system, and affects to somo extent, the quality of the blood. A medicine that, like Hostetter's Bitters, not on y tones the stomach but at the same time controls the liver, produces a regular habit of body, braces the nerves, purifies the fluids and " ministers to a mind diseased," is therefore the true and only specific for chronic Indigestion.
