MONROE COUNTY Mutual Fire Insurance Company. STR0UISSURG, PA. CHARTER PERPETUAL. The By-Liws cf tli!3 Company, and the renulai ions ooveniing insurance have, re cently been very nuteriully changed, pla cing it upon a bitis ejtial to that of any Fire Insurance Company in the Slate. Important among these changes are the following, viz : Policies, instead of being perpetual, are issued for five years. All propertj' is classified and the rate of premium is fixed according to the risk of the property. Premium notes are taken, and all as sessments ore n ade on the notes. Property is insured for not more than two thirds of its actual cah value, and the full amount of insurance paid in case of loss, provided the Io?s be equal to the amount of insu runce. "Annual assessments" only arc made, ex cept in cases of heavy loss, 8nd where a special assessment is necpssary. The Company id therefore prepared to in sure property upon terms much more desira ble than under the old system. Applications may be made to any of the Managers, Surveyors, or Secretary. MANAGERS.

Up in Blopsburg, the other day, a lightning-rod man drove up in frout of a handsome edifice standing in the midst of trees and shrubs, au'd spoke to Mr. Sum mers, who was sitting on the steps in front, lie accosted Summers as the owner of the residence and said : 4,I see jou have no lightning rods on this house." No," said Sunataers. "Are you going to put any on ?" "Well, hadn't thought of it," replied Summers. "You ought to. A tall building like this is very much exposed. I'd like to run you up one of my rods ; twisted steel, glass fcuders, nickel plated tips everything complete. Maj I put one up to show jou t I'll do the job cheap." "Certainly you may if you want to. 1 haven't the slightest objection," said Sum mers. During the next half hour the man had his ladders up and assistants at work, aud at the end ol that time the job was done. He called Summers out into the yard to admire it. He said to Summers. Now that is well enough, but if it was my house I'd have another rod up on the other side. There's nothing like being protected thoroughly." "That's true," saiJ Summers, "it would be better." "I'll put up another, shall I ?" asked the man. "Why, of course, if you think it's best," said Summers. Accordingly the man went to work again, and soou had the rod in its place. "That's a first rate job," he said to Summers, as they both Jtood eyeing it. "I like such a man as you arc. Dig hearted, liberal, not afraid to put a dollar down for a pood thing. There's some pleasure in dealing with you. I like you so much that I'd put a couple more rods on that house, on the north end, and one on the soutli for almost nothing." "It would make things safer, I sup pose," said Summers. "Certainly it would. I'd better do it, hadn't I bey ?" "Just as you think proper," said Sum tners. So the man ran up two more rods, and then he came down aguiu, and said to Summers : "There, that job is done. Now let's settle up " "Do what ?" "Why, the job's finished, and I'll take my moaey." "You don't expect me to pay you, I hope ?" "Of course I do. Didn't you fell me to put those rods on your house ?" "My house ?" shouted Summers. "Thunder and lightning ! I never or dered you to put those rods up. It would have been ridiculous. Why, man, this is the court-house, and I'm here waiting for the court to assemble. I'm on the jury. You seem to be anxious to rush out your rods, and as it was none of my business, I let you go on. Pay for it ! Come, now, that's pretty good." The Dlossburg people say that the manner in which that lighting rod man tore around town and swore was fearful. Put when he got his rods off the court court house he left permanently. He don't fancy the place. WASHING CALICOES AND MUSLINS. The first requisite is plenty of water, this is even more essential for colored than for white clothes. It should not be hot enough to scald, and should have a moderate suds of hard soap before the garments are put in. Very white and nice soft soap is preferable to hard for flannels does not shrink them as much ; but the latter is best for cotton goods. Wash calicoes in two waters, using but little eoap in the second. When clear, rinse them two or even three times in tepid water. Good laundresses always assert that the great secret of clear mus tins is thorough rineing. The qantity of starch used also affects light colors, aud for muslin dresses especi ally only starch of the purest quality should be used. When no great stiffness is required, it is a good plan to stir the starch into the rinsing water : it assists iu setting the colors where they show a tendency to run. For setting the colors ol fading goods I have used ox gall, alum, borax and salt all with good results, through they will not "clench" green and blues that are determined on taking French leave. One benefit in using a strong solution of alum water is that it will positively make cotton fire proof. Mothers who "sit on thorns" at school conceits and ex hibitiens, watching the dangerous prox imity of gossamer dresses to the foot lightf, will appreciate disadvantage. And so far from injuring the looks of the mus lio, theic is no other treatment that will so brighten and improve the colors. Colored clothes should be wrung very thoroughly drid in the shade, and turned about two or three times while drying. A clerk in a city book store, thinking to annoy a Quaker eustomer who looked as though he was fresh from the country, handed him a volume, saying : "Here is an excellent essay on the rearing of calves." "Thee had better present that to thy mother, young man," Tas the spontaneous retort of the Quaktr. anaoa i i'inw.. in The Election laws recently passed dif fer but little from those existing under the old Constitution. The Regi-try law of lSG'J has been, in fact, re enacted, with but slight change, and the act of 1831) re mains intact, except where inconsistent with the new Constitution or euperseded by subsequent legislation. There arc but two material departures from the old lew. The first consists in requiring a two months' previous rcsi dence of the voter, instead of ten days, and a paymeut of taxes within a corres ponding period ; and the second consists in the numbering of ballots. The following are the qualifications of voters : Every male citizen twenty one years of age, possessing the following qualifica tions, shall bo entitled to vote at all e!ec t ions : First He shall have been citizen of the United States at least one month. Second. He shall have resided in the State one year (or if, having previously been a qualified elector or native bom citizen of the State, he shall have remov ed therefrom and returned, then six months) immediately preceding the eleo tion. Third, He shall have resided in the election district where he shall offer to vote at least two months immediately p-ro-ceding the election. Fourth. If twenty two years of age or upwards, he shall have paid within two years a State or county tax, which shall have been assessed at least two months and p;iid at least one month before the elec tieo. WATCH SPRINGS. Hair-springs, gays a writer in the 17c form Magazine, arc made, in the factory, of finest English steel, which comes upon spools like threak. To the naked eye it is as round as a hair, but' under the mi croscope it becomes a flat steel ribbon. This ribbon inserted between the jaws of a fine gauge, and the dial hand shows its dirameter to be one twenty-Qft'i hun dredths of a inch. A hair plucked from a man's head measures three twenty five hundredth one from the heal cf a little girl at a neighboring bench two tweuty five hundredths. Actually, how over, the finest hair is twife as thick as the steel ribbon, for the hair compresses oue half between the mcntallic jaws of the gauge. A hair spring weighs only one fifteenth thous andth of a pound Troy. In a straight line it is a foot long. With a pair of tweezers we draw one out in a spiral form, until it is six inches lonj; ; but it springs back into place, not beut a particle from its true coiling. CUROISITIES OF COAL. An average Atlautic steamer consumes fifty tons of coal in tweuty four hours. Therefore, if five tons of co;il are sufficient to feed an ordinary grate in our dwellings during the entire year, the coal-consumed on board a steamer in one day will last a small family, burning one fire, ten years. If a load of coal is left out of doors, ex posed to the weather, until it is burning one great say a month it looses one third of its heating quality. If a ton of coal is placed on the ground, and left there, and another ton is placed under a shed, the latter loses about twenty five per cent, of its heating power, the former about forty joven per cent. Heuce it is a great saving of coal to have it in a dry place, covered over, and on all sides. The softer the coal the more it lo?cs, because the most volatile and valuable cotistituents uudergo a slow combustion. A Sweet Answer. A littlo boy and girl, each Gvc years old, were playing at the road-side. The boy became angry at something, aud t-truck his playmate a sharp blow on the cheek, whereupou she sat down and began to cry. The boy stood looking on a minute, and then said : "I didn't tneam to hurt you, Katie. I am sorry." The little girl's face brightened instantly. The sobs were hushed and she said : "Well, if you arc sorry, it dou't hurt me." No Home. That house is no home which holds a grumbling father, a scolding mother, a rowdy son, a lazy daughter and a bad tempered child. It may be built of mar ble, surrounded by garden, park and fountains; carpets of extravagant costli ness may spread its floors ; pictures of rarest merit may adorn its walls ; its tables may abound with dainties the most luxurious ; but yet it will not be a home To make it such, there must be a change of iumates. A country fellow entered one of the New York banks, aud, walking up to the counter, exclaimed, "Here I am ; I want you to take a fair look at me." Without a word further he strode out. The next day the same customer reappeared, uttered the same words, and again disappeared. The third day, at the same time, ha walked in, aud, advancing to the teller's desk, threw down a draft payable three days after sight. "Now," said he, "you've seen me three times, I want the money for it." uli Several New York reporters are trying to form a coalition against such newspa pers as refuse to allow them to use freely such favorite terms s "inaugurate." conflagration," "holocaust," "canine quad ruped," funeral obsequies," and other sounding absurdities. They declare, and truly enough, that if these words aro de nied they cau have nothing to say. For towns must grow, and trade increase, Uy nerve and enterprise. And they who'd live must have'the pluck. To ri.ni and advertise. There are men in our town Who do not advertise: Good customers go past their doors, The cheery cash likewise, And when they pass their books at night They're the saddest men in town, And ever ami anon they moan : "The place is going down !" The orange crop of California, now being gathered, i a very fine one. A dealer of San Gabriel sold his orange crop for voO per thousand. His orana grove covers five acres and contains 500 trees Estimating these at 1000 each, the crop is worth Slo.OOO. Three thousand dol lars an acre is a pretty good return for their culitvatioa, and nearly all clear profit, for the crop was sold on the trees. One aerc in Southern California can be made to yield as great a clear profit by setni torpical nut and fruit culture as twenty to fifty acres in the E:teru States devoted to ordinary kinds of farming. The lady who tapped her husband geutly with a fan at a party the other nij:ht and said, "Love, it's growing late, I think we had better go home," is the same one who, after getting home, shook the rolling pin under his nose ;iu J said "Yon infernal old SL'outilrel yoa, if you, ever look at tint mean, nasty, ealicofuced, mackerel eyed thing that yon looked at to uight, I'll bu?t your head wide open." A witty clergyman accosted by an old acquaintance by the name of Cobb, re plied : "I don't know you sir." "My name is Cobb," rejoined the man, who was half seas over.

'The litest,' said the obliging clerk, 'is that the Yankee have got the Modoc?.' The lady struck her knuckles on the countar and exclaimed, 'I hope the last cue of 'em vv ill die of it!" A colored preacher, in translating to his hearers the follon wing sentence : "The harvest is over, the season is ended, and thy soul is not saved," put it : "De corn it am cribbed, dere ain't any more work, aud d debbil is still foolin' vvid dis com munity." A young beau, at hi sister's evening party began to sing, "Why am I so weak and weary?" when a little brother brought the performance to a sudden close by yelling out, "Aunt Mary says it's because you come home so late, and drunk most every night ?"
