Interesting Facts about Counterfeit Money. "Oath," the Chicago Tribune versa tile correspondent, has been amusing himself lately by interviewing an en graver on the subject of counterfeit monpy. Said this gentleman : "I am one of the oldest engravers in the country. There is an investigation cne day to be made into the currency of the country which will startle you and your newspapers, and all their readers. There is a $10 bill. Take it look at it Do you see anything notable about it ?" I looked the bill all over and then the man all over, and saw nothing to excite a rematk in either. ''There is nothing particular about that bill," he said, ex cept that it is a counterfeit. There are eighteen distinct counteifeits on the S10 bill, and, as an engraver, I know that ihcy represent eighteen different counter feiting gangs. People generally kuow nothing whatever about the duplication of United States bonds, aod about the quantify of counterfeit scrip afloat. If you, ns a newspaper man, were to go to (Jen. Spinner, and to the heads of the Treasury, and ak how much counterfeit currency wa in circulation, they would probably tell you 10 per ccut. but I tell yon ns an enraver, that they have admitted to me that there is 25 per cent., or one quarter of the whole amount of the etamps current in this country, which are fraudulent. "Do you know, sir, tint the postal cur rency is renewed six times every year? That is the case, and see the possibilities for its increased duplication and counter feiting. We could better afford to pay 50 per cent, premium, and u?e gold, than have to deal a? wc do with a lot of paper which is beyond the control, to a certain extent, of the Government officials. The extravogntly high price? and the crrup tion in our politics and life hinge upon the currency. The duplication of the United States bonds will some day be found such an alarming matter that it will bring the whole country to its feet That crime began in the treasury as far back as Chase's time. John Covode and others in Congress made strenuous cffi'tt. to oppose it, but they were gagged by the gavel and the party majority. An official who at that time was connected with the printing had in some way got a grip upon the Secretary, and could not be budged from his place by any power in the coun try. II is accounts were short one 'ear $03,000, and he could uot tell where the noney had gone. They kept after him, however, ar.'' on one occasion he appear ed before the examiners wilh his arms full of bond?, and. throwing them down, said - "There are your 03,000 !" Now. there was a pre$s used for pria'inpr at that time and it ran repeatedly in the night. The effical himself was seen to emerge after dark, on two occasions, with a great tin box in his baud, which he but into his buggy and carried away. Now how much duplication of bonds do yon sup pose it required to make 503,000 worth of coupons, so as to equalize that account?" "Several hundred thousand, I supposed !" N'o, sir, it took between 518,000,000 and 6li,000,000 of bonds; and about that time happened the Gist duplication." I looked suddenly into the old gentle man's eyes, and was in great doubt whether I was speaking to au iutelligcnt lunatic or a great reformer. Plant Corn Early. I came to Nebraska in 1857 was ob liged to stack my first crop in a pile upon the grouud, which by the following spring hud become somewhat wasted by stock tramping it into the ground. I observed that which was tramped iti deep rotted, while all that near the surface sprouted and grew vigorously, coming up with the first vegetation of spring. When my field corn, planted about the middle of May, was just cotuiug into silk, the corn upon this volunteer piece was Urge and hard enough for the grater, being large aud well developed. The dry time of the summer approachmg just now, my field corn was forbidden to come to full matur ity, being light and loose upon the cob, aud badly filled out at the cud. My field corn was worked well, while no labor was bestowed upon the volunteer piece, and upon a fair estimate the volunteer corn was one half the best. This accident became my , instructor to plant early under a light coverj just clev erly hiding the corn from eight and scent of mice and the foraging army of corn robbing animals. Having done so, I have abundautly proved that Nebraska is equal to any of the United States in the pro duction of this great staple. It has been the admiration of strangers veiling our State to behold my 9eld of corn at grow iog time, high up, when others along their route were ranging from one to six inches high, aud some just planting. I notice, foo, that all the farmers of Nebraska who plant early aud teud their crops well have full cribs, and bear con current testimony with myself that early planting will give corn time to mature before the hot wiuds of summer injure it. Our experience proTes that spring frosts are no injury to corn, for it will come again as often as bit down. Cor. Ivica Forme)'. The Central Railroad of New Jersey carried over their Lehigh and Susquehan na Division, on eingle track, the large amount of 00,000 tons of coal in the week ending the 22th ult. Days Without Night. Rev. Dr. Uaird, in a recent lecture, gave some interesting facts. There is nothing that strikes a stranger more forci bly, if he visits Sweden, at the season of the year when days are longest, than the absence of night. Dr. Uaird had no con ception of it before his arrival, lie ar rived at Stock-ton from Oottenburg, 400 miles distant, in the morning, and in the afternoon went to see, some friends, had uot taken note of the time, and returned about midnight ; it was ns light as it is here half an hour befor sundown. You could see distinctly. Rut all was quite in the streets ; it seem cd as if the inhabitants were gone away, or were dead. No signs of life. stores closed. The snn in June goes down at Stock holm a little before 10 o'clock. There is a great illumination all night, as the sun passes around the earth towards the north pole, and the refraction of its rays is such that you can see to read ut midnight. Dr. Raird read a letter in the forest, near Stockholm, at midnight, without artificial light. There is a mountain at the head of Bothnia, whereon the 21st of June, the sun does not go down at all. Travelers go there to sec it. A steamboat goes up from Stockholm for the purpose of cirry ing those who are curious to witness the phenomenon. It only occurs one night. The sun goes down to the horizon, you can see the whole face of it, and in five minutes it begins to rise. At the North Cape, latitude 72 degrees, the sun docs not go down for several weeks. In June it would be about 25 degrees above the horizon at midnight The way the people there know it is mid night, they see the sun rise. The changes in these high latitudes, from Summer to Winter, are so great that we can have no conception of them at all. In the winter time the sun disappears and is not seen for weeks. Then it comes and shows its face. Afterwards, it remain for ten, fif teen, or twenty minutes, and then de scends, and finally it docs not set at all, but makes almost u circle around the heavens. Dr. Baird was asked how they managed in regard to hired persons, and what the considered a day. He could not say, but supposed they worked by the hour, and twelve hours would be considered a day's work. Birds and animals take their accustomed rest at usual hours. The Doctor did not know how they learned the time, but they had ; and they go to rest whether the sun goes down or not. The hens take to the trees about 7 P. M., and stay there until the sun is up in the the morning and the people get into this habit of late raising too. The first morn ing Dr. Baird awoke in Stockholm be was surprised to see the sun shining into his room. He looked at his watch, and found it was only 3 o'clock ; the next time he awoke, it was 5 o'clock ; but there was no person in the streets. The Swedes in the cities arc not very industrious, ow ing probably to the climate. For Potato Planters. The late John C. Thompson of Staten Island was always signally successful in getting a large yield of full grownpota tocs two to three wetks earlier thau his neighbors, on the same character of soil. His plan (which he never tried to con ceal from those interested in gardening) we epitomize for the benefit of our readers: From the middle to the latter part of March the large tubers were cut, leaving two eyes ou each piece, and these pieces were placed close together, eyes up, in shallow wooden boxes, having in them a layer of about two inches of sand. Tho seed was covrcred with the same thickness of sand, and the boxes were then placed in a warm house cellar, and in a week or so would begin to sprout, without further care, beyond giving them a few light waterings, in case the sand became dry on top. In the course of three or four weeks, and by the time the ground became dry and warm enough for planting, these potatoes in the boxes would have sprouts as inch or two in length and an abundant supply of healthy root. In the mean time the ground was prepared for planting iu the ordioary wav using a liberal allowncc of well rotted manure. When the drills were opened, and everything in readiness for planting, the boxes were carried out and the sprouted seed placed along the drill, 15 inches apart, and at once covered with mellow soil. With ordinary care in tak ing the seed from these boxes and trans planting, the growth will not be checked in tho least, and, wilh warm weather, in a few days the young tops are well above ground. While potatoes planted in the common way have not yet sprouted, this gives a clear gain of from two to three weeks, on the date of ripening, with much more certainty of an even stand of stalks, aud of course a larger yield from a given space. It is not supposed, of course, that large potato growers will prepare and plaut their whole crop in this tvay, but the method is practical and well worthy of a trial, on a small 6cale at first, by farmers who raiso early potatoes for market, while for family use the plan seems altogether feasible.

The subject of borrowing and lending came up in the course of a conversation with a subscriber living near Ithaca, when he suddenly recollected a funny reminis cence of that character which had hap pened in his own neighborhood. He said he had a neighbor whose family were great borrowers, but not so distinguished as paymasters they were always borrow ing, but seldom if ever returning the ex act amount borrowed. An old Quaker lady, another neighbor, who had endured these invasions for a long time patiently, hit upon a very philosophical mode of eventually putting a stop to the nuisance. Keeping her own counsel, the next time her good man went to town, he had a se parate and express order to purchase a pound of the best tea, and also a new can ister to put it in, as he knew she already had plenty of tea, and also a canister, he was puzzled to determine what the old lady winted of more tea and a new canis tcr, but his questioning and reasonings elicited nothing more than a repetition of the o:der : "Jim, did I not tell thee to get me a pound of the best tea and a new canis ter ? Now, go along and do as I bid thee." And go along he did, and when he came home at night the tea and new can ister were his companions. The old lady took them from him with an amused ex prcssion on her usual placid features, and depositing the tea in the canister, set it on the shelf for a special ue. It had not long to wait, for the borrowing neigh bor had frequent use for the aromatic herb. The good old lady loaned gen crously, emptying back in the canister any remitance of borrowed teas which the neighbor's conscience inclined her to make. Time went on, and after some thing less than the one hundredth time of borrowing, the uetghbor again appear ed for "just another drawing of tea," when the oft-visited lea canister was brought out, and found to be empty, and the good old lady and obliging neighbor was one pound of tea poorer than when she bought the new canister, which now only remained to tell the story. Then she made a little characteristic speech, perhaps the first in her life ; she said : "Thou seest that empty conister. I filled it for thee with a pound of my best tea, and I have let it all to thee in driblets, and put into it all thou hast sent me in return, and none but thyself hath taken there-from or added unto it, and now thou seest it empty ) therefore I will say to thee, thou hast borrowed thyself out, and I can lend thee no more !' Weekly Ifhacan. Small-Pox. A Remedy. Mr. Editor. I notice by a late issue of your valuable paper, that small-pox is prevailing in many parts of the country. The following remedy is submitted, if deemed worthy of publication, for the benefit of those afflicted. It has, 1 firm ly believe, been the means of saving the life of my father. He was taken ill with the disease on the 12th of January, 1S73, and suffered in great agony for a week, his head, neck aud shoulders were swol len to double their usual sixe, and cover ed with pox marks, bis hands were drawn crooked with pain, together with the severe sickness attending the disease, his tongue was swollen so that he could scarcely speak or swallow. The physi cians gave no encouragement, and he had given up almost all hope of ever recover ing. At this stage of the disease he ask ed for buttermilk, that he might put his hauds in it, it was furnished, and no soon er had he put them it than it gave relief, he kept them in it for three hours and went to sleep, not having closed his eyes in sleep for three days and three nights previous. Upon awaking, his aches, pains and fever had left, and he immediately began to recover. Wc then bathed him with butter-milk, and letting it dry in, and then rubbed the skin with sweet oil, and also gave the milk inwardly, and in a short time he was able to leave his room. The buttermilk appeared to allay the disease at once. Another member of the family took the disease after his re covcry, aud the buttermilk was again used with the same succees. Where Meerschaum is Found. Most of the meerschaum of which the famous pipes are made comes from Asia Minor, and is mined principally in the peuiosula of Natolia, ucar the town of Coniah. Meerschaum is also found in Spain and Greece, bnt in such small quantities, aud of such inferior quality, that mining it is not remunerative. Meer schaum is exported in irregularly shaped block, with obtuse angles and edges, and much care is required in removing the irregularities and faulty proportious. It may also contain various defects, by the diHusioo of different minerals throughout, and there are also hard spots iu some meerschaum, which will appear on the surface when pipes are cut aud waxed. Such pipes are claused as seconds and thirds, as tho market valuo is thereby diminished from fifteen to twenty per cent.

Throughout the interior of Africi, and, indeed, in some parts of Asia, a woman is prized for fatness. Beauty associated with excessive obesity ; and such being public sentiment, mothers seasonably commence a system of dietic treatment that makes their daughters irresistible Colonel Keating gives an account of the processes of fattening young women Tor a Tunis market. As soon as betrothed, she is cooped up in a small room, with gold shackles on her ankles. .If her protector has lost a wife by death, or divorced one. their anklets are sent forwards for the new matrimonial candidate. When she has attained a desirable size, indicated by filling the pattern rings, she is carried in triumph to her new home. The preparations of food that actually produces the coveted dimension moun tain of fattness is called draught, made of the seed of a vegetable peculiar to this country. Some positively die from ex cessive fatness in an effort to surpass in that bewitching accomplishment rival candidates for matrimonial positions. These famous mortals are not the poor girls. They are the highest orders of society, and therefore are ambitious, like fashionables in some civilized States ; of securing an elevated position with a rich husband. Bruce, the traveler, stw a great queen in Africa a gem of a wo man, the envy of her net aud wife hun ters who weighed over four hundred pounds. Can science explain the actions of these seeds philosophically " Farmers Swindled. It is astonishing how many farmers are the victims of all sorts of swindlers. They can be induced to buy fruit trees of agents whom they never saw before, and pay two prices, with the probability that tho fruit will be small and tasteless ; they will listen with open mouths to a smooth tongucd fellow describing a worth less invention or patent right, and they will almost sign their names in blank, by which they get swindled out of hundreds of dollars. In fact there is no miserable game in which farmers cannot be induced to engage. Rut it is to be said that these victims do not read, and that they de spise agricultural papers. An authority asserts that there are many thousands of farmers in Illinois who never see a paper, and this is true of many farmers even in all the States. A few years ago hund dreds of farmers were iodaeei to sign what tnrncd out to be notes of hand, with the inducement that they were to become agents of some wonderfully profitable machine. The only remedy is for farm ers to become informed, and to do so they must take some paper which is devoted to their interests and read it every week. The time so spent will often save them more money than all their labor, can bring. Home Hints About Diet Most chronic diseases, and many acute ones, are produced at the table. As a rule, no fluid of any kind should be taken at the table, especially if the stomach is weak. The stomach should never be overloaded ; not more than two or three articles should be taken at one meal ; no stimulants used before eating ; tobacco arrests digestion. Milk is the best diet for infants and children. Tomatoes with cream and sugar are healthy aud nutri tious. Bread and butter is the staff of life, and easily digested. Too much salt irritates the stomach. Colds are fre quently produced by drinking, hot tea and exposure afterwards. Late suppers induce heart disease. Pastry and cake constipate the bowels. Boiled potatoes are not so healthy as baked ones. Fruits are to be eaten at breakfast and dinner The stomach requires much rest to be healthy ; purgative medicines weaken the bowels. Cheerful conversation promotes digestion ; aud anger prevents-it. True Intent of the Bankruptcy Act. An act approved March 3 declares : "That it was tho true intent and meaning of an act approved June 8. 1372, entitled 'An act to establish a uniform system of bankruptcy throughout the United States,' approved March 2, 1807, and the exemp tions allowed the baukrupt by said amendatory net should, and it is hereby enacted that they shall, be the amount allowed by the coustitution aud laws of each State, respectively, as existiug in the year 1871, and that such exemptions be valid against debts contracted before the adoption and passage of snch State constitution and laws, as well as those contracted after the same, and against liens by judgment or decree of any State Court, any decision of any such Court rendered since the adoption and passage of such constitution and laws Jo the con trary notwithstanding.
