CEMENT AND URAYEL R03FS.
I doubt H alleged advantages of
cement or gravel roofs, as in niaoy
capes they leak, and require repairs
often; and tbe damage done to tbe
building, if it be a dwelling, is often
more than tbe expense of a tin roof,
wbicb when well put on, and painted
once in five rears, will last a century.
ibere are cases, as in building flat
roofed out-bouses, wben it may do to
put on a cement roof.. Ilere is tba
manner of making such a roof from
tbe Agriculturist, as follows: "A
cement roof may very easily be made,
by baviog an ed&e strip all around,
so as to leave a space two inches
deep all over tbe surface. Tbe roof
should not be more than one-eighth
pitch, and may be very nearly flat.
Tbe cement should be mixed with
four times its bulk ot sand, while dry,
water should then be added, until
sufficiently plastic. Tbe cement is to
be laid on with a plaster's trowel,
and finished smoothly. When drv
and bard, it may be coated wiih gas-
tar ana sprinkled with fine sand." I
know of no kind of cement that can
be used on a roof, or anywhere else,
and made a good job with "four times
its bulk of sand." It should be half
cement and half sand; and I warn my
readers against attempting to make a
roof, cementing a cellar bottom, sub
ject to water upon it, with less ce
ment Tbe gas-tar and sand on
such a roof as tbe Agriculturist de
scribes, is all there It about It of val
ue, and it would be better alone than
over such weak and useless cement,
because as soon as the tar becomes
dry, say in two or tbres years, it
would be liable to crack, then the
cement would become wet, and tbe
frosts of winter wonld destroy it.
No ordinary cement, as the "Ro
eendale," which is extensively used
in tbe Middle States, and other
brands from other manufacturers of
a similar article, can stand the frosts
of winter, when laid in walks, or in
any other level, or nearly level posi
tion, oat of doors, unless protected
from becoming wet by something up
on it
A CHEAP AND DI R. ABLE ROOF.
In building a cheap stoop or porti
co at tbe rear of a bouse, the roof
may be made of well-Masoned, match
ed, pine boards, put on very tightly,
having aix inches descent ia six feet,
and painted as soon aa laid ; aad
wben dry apply another coat, filling
up all tbe crevices where the boards
"were joined together with paint made
quite thick, and ia a few weeks take
whit lead and boiled oil, ia which
mix about one-quart of the measure
ol lead and oil of white aea sand.
Apply this mixture, with an old
brash, at thick as it will lie, and not
raa down from the beat of the sun,
aeeing that wber tbe boards'were
matched is mad smooth with tb
paint, and yon viQ have a roof that
will never leak, if the boards are
well aeasoned, and arc painted once
ia fiv or aix years. Any roof not
over twelve feet wida er.n be made
of euct1oardB,'Wnatthe3r:will give
good satisfaction. Plastie slate may
be aalelv ased for flat roofs on out
houses ; bnt for a good dwelling
bouse it is better to sever tbe roof
with tia, if It b flat; if not with
shingles. The cost of tia roofing is
from 8 to 10 cents per 100 square
feet; aad a bouse costing from $2,000
to tore to.OOO can be roofed wub
tin for about $200, wbile cement, gas-
tar and plaatus slate would cost
about $125; consequently, tbe saving
by makingarooitb of latter material
is not enough, .to be of any great ob
jx. ...... , ..
ERECTIKO Bl 1LD1XUS.
I will now merely make a few re
marks oa tb frame of buildings;
and having built a good many houses,
I profess to know something about
building not as a carpenter, bnt as
an owner aad plaiaer of bouses.
Twenty-Eva years ago no builder in
New York aad vicinity though that
any frame timber bat white pine
onght to be ased; but they bare got
that kicked out of their heads; cd !
now bemlock la considered good 1
enough for either city or country j

remarks contemplates building a

of time, I may almost Bay. Then,
25 to SO rears ago. the majority of
conntrv buildings ignored tbe ; fact,
that timber for booses' need aot be
half as large as was the old custom
to use; and to-day we see in old hous
es enougb timber ia the frajss ol one
to build three In tbe modern war,!
Uut the climax of folly was the mar
Using of the sills aad girta to receive
the ends of studding (tenons); and if
there be any one at tbe present day
(and I suppose there are mtny ia tbe
"back woods,.) ' wba continue this
practice, the least offensive epithet I
can bestow on such men is to call
them i'noramutes. No matter of
what class, or bow large a building
mar be,- there sboold be no mortis
ing for tb atods, as toe-n emog top
and bottom with tenrconj sails is
vast! v. stronger, mueh cheaper, and
it bofds the building together in a
great degree. In regard to tbe size
ol Umber for ! a frame to a bono,1 no-
matter whether large or small, tbe
corner posts should not be larger than
four by eight For most ' bouses ' in
tbe country, or in villages, posts four
by six are large enough. Ibe sills
should in all cases be four by eight to
afford depth and stiffness to the floor
timbers two by ' eight in sire. For
large bouses the studs should be
three by four; but for small ones two
by four are large enough.
OLD FRAMES.
Frequently old buildings are bought
for the purpose of osing tbe frames
in Dew ones : and tbe price paid is
often about as much as new timber
would cost, while tbe labor; in re
modeling tbe old framo, is double,
perp8, what it wonld be to frame
the building trom the timber. I do
not consider that a man would b"
much, if any, the gainer, if the tim
ber of an old building were given to
him, for the purpose of being used ia
a new one, even if it were perfectly
sound, and of a quality to last as
long as new hemlock. It does very
well to boy an old building for "a
song," from the material of which
some cheap out-bouse can be made
entire except tbe roof; bnt it is al
ways better to buy new timber for a
dwelling bcosc.
LICE IN rOLLTBY HOCSES.
"A poultry house may be cleared
of lice when badly infested, . by
thoroughly cleaning it, scalding the
floor, if of boards, and washing it
with soft soap and boiling water.
Wash the rest of tbe house with : hot
lime-wash, and rub tbe roosts thor
oughly with lard and kerosene oil
in caual parts. A email quantity of
the grease should also be rubbed up
on the wings of tbe fowls, and upon
their beads. This plan may need
repeating once, before the Tcrmin are
cleaned out entirely. A plenty of
dry earth or coal ashes should be
scattered in tbe bouse." Agricul
turist. REMOVIN'0 1IONEV ltOXES.
At this season of the vear tbe boxe
iu the caps of bee hives, if tbe bees
are populous, are generally filled
with honey; and the question is,
what should be Jane with tbem.
It removed there is difficulty in get
ting tbe bees out, witbot having tbe
honey taken away by the. bees, un
less one folly understands bow to
manage bees in such cases. If the
boxes be removed and emptv ones
put in their place, it is doubtful
whether any booey be stored in them.
unless ono lives in a locahtv where a
good deal of buckwheat is growing.
If the boxes are perfectly foil of
combs, and the cells sealed over, it
will be well to remove them now,
and put empty boxes in tbeir places;
but if tbe boxes are not full of combs,
they should not be removed till
October or early ia .November, on a
cold morning wben all the bees are
down in tbe hives. Honey in boxes,
or otherwise, should not be kept in a
damp cellar, and when tbe boxes are
rmicpri in -lair r or-" A notir th'
ought to be placed in a tight v box
one large enough to hold the honey
from six or seven hives, and they . to
be fumigated with burning brimstone,
to destroy anr eggs of tbe bee-moth,
that may be deposited in them. If
tbe honey is not removed till Fall
tbe fumigating is not necessary.

A few years ago this breed of ducks
was imported from China ; and of
cour&o, a great deal of lying was
published about them to make them
sell at $20 to $25 a pair, and tbe
eggs at one dollar eacb ; but now
tbe price is down to a moderate
figure, because they are worth no
more that the ducks we bid before
they were imported. , In. size tbev.

A Kescheueff correspondent writes;
The Cossacks are divided into sev
era! corn tbe Cossacks of the Doo
the Cossacks of the Ukraine, tbe Cos
sacks of the Caucasus, etc. Each of
these divisions bas a chief, who i
called an ataman and bolds the rank
of general, and all tbe Cossacks of
tbe empire are united under a single
chief, who bas tbe title of "ataman
general." ' This latter title always
devolves opon tbe hereditary grajid
doke. Tbe Cossack cbtbes and
equips bimself, and his uniform and
his horse belong to bimself. He
wears a large, round, 1w cap made
of ecin from Astrakan. wide panta
Ioona, staffed into his boots and reach
ingiost below bis knees, the whole
covered br a kind of overcoat, but
toning oa tbe back, and having three
long naps reacning to tbe feet and
fastening on the full length. On bis
breast, to tbe left and right in vertl
cal cases, he carries six cartridges at
each eide. In bis belt be carries
poniard. A baldrick hangs from his
right shoulder and passes to tbe lef!
side, where it supports a long saber,
ia a leather scabbard. , Oa bi. back
hanging from a bandoleer and wrap
ped in a case made of goat's skin, be
carries bis rifle. ' The Cossack al
ways carries in bis hand a wbip, with
a short lash, wbicb be calls mnjal.
His borse is email and rather ugly
and, though be is made of good stuff,
bis form is somewhat angular. To
form an idea of tbe Co3sack saddle,
imagino an ordinary saddle upon
wbicb would be fastened bv a strap
a square leather cushion about four
lochia high. This is the reason that
at first sight one is so much surprised
to soe this curious locking cavalier
perched up so bigb on hu saddle.
He sticks on bis borse s back by stick
ing his knees into tbe animal s sides
with all bis strength, which gives bis
legs the appearance of a pair of pinch
era. Tbe stirrup is an eqoallv curi
ous thing. Tba bottom is 'hick and
round enough, but from that npit re
e rubles very much one of those tia
boxes ia wbicb preserves are sold.
It has been already said that the
Cossack's borse is bis personal prop
erty, and it may be added that be
turns it to business accouot by hiring
it out Since tbe arrival of tbe troops
at Kischeneff ther have been the de
light of the collegians, who for a roil
ble an bour, bave been enabled to
make promenades on horseback in
bands of these valiant little animals.
At tbe time of my arrival the squad
ron of Cossacks was massed in a heap
in a corner. One of them started at
a gallop and threw his cap into tbe
middle of tbe square. Immediately
all the others precipitated themselves
forward at a headlong gallop and en
deavored to pick np tbe cap either
with tbe band or the whip or by
jumping to me ground, it was a
scene of general confusion, during
which tbe eye could scarcely distin
gui.h horses from men. All this b
accompanied by cries which do not
cease until some borseman by aa
adroit maneuver has managed to ob
tain possession of the trophy. Then
they all start off again, lashing their
borses with all their might for it is a
carious fact that during tbe whole
time the Cossack is mounted be beats
his borse without a moment's cessa
tion. ice reader must not suppose
tbat it is necessary thai toe Cossack
must form one ot a band in order
that he may give play to his fanta
sies. Sometimes when be is alone he
lets himself run into certain eccentric
lties, ot wnicn i win give an exam
ple.
1 was break asting in a restaurant
when all on a sudden tbe door open
ed with a loud noise and a Cossack
rushed in like a hurricane. After
promenading noisily around tbe tables
be polled up bis borse before one of
the guests and placed the animal's
nose on a plate of green salad which
bad just been brought out and which
the horse ate with great celerity.
Then man and borse departed just a&
tbey came, without any parson, not
even the proprietor of tbe establish
ment, saying - a single word. J Per
haps it was because tbe Cossack held
in his band a kinjal, whose strokes
would eost him nothing. La'er on I
spoke of this incident to tbe aid-decamp
of an ataman, wb simply
laughed aud said : , "What surprises
me is tbat tbe Cossack did not make
his horse get up oa a table." Seeing
that I was astonished he called a
Cossack who was waiting ia the yard.
The soldier came in on horseback
without hesitating. Tbe officer spoke
but a aiagle word and ia leas time
tban it takes me to write it tbe Cos
sack made his borse mount the bill
iard table. I insisted on no more,
for tbia experience was enough to edi
fy me. As much will be said of Cos
sacks ia tbia war it may - be well to
give an accouut of this peculiar cav
alry. However astonishing may be
the acts attributed to tbem tbe read
er may accept . tbe; statement with
confidence ; for tbe truth of tbe sto
ries can be established by good evi
dence. Already tber bave made
hitherto unheard of marches, and they
will be the teal heroes of tbe events
about to commence.
Tbe reader baa observed, no doubt,
that in every war attention is concen
trated on eoate on fact I a tba Cri

The Mussulman nations are oer-l
meated by secret societies and their
agents. "Tbe ramification of these
societies," to quote tbe letter written
by Mr. Wood from Tanis, "extend
like a net over tbe whole of tbe Mo
hammedan world, in towns as well
as Tillages, ar.d tben they bave re
doubled tbeir zeal in carrying out tbe
sacred object of tbeir mission name
ly, the consolidation of Islam as
against the infidels." In the latter
term are, moreover, included not only
Christians an I Israelites, but uIho
Mussulman princes aad potentates
suspected, as tbe Khedive is suspect
ed, of being favorable to Christian
institutions. . Tbe most prominent of
these religious orders according to
the same witness, are the Bektashy,
Abdul Kaderel Bagdadi, tbe Khow
an (or Fraternity,) ' Jssawive, . and
Parkawy. ' s " - "
Of all these sects the Bektashy is
that which comprehends tbe , greater
number of : the higher and
better educated - classes. . Its mem
bers profess to be rationalists or free
thinkers, aad Air. Wood thinks thai
it is in Ccooseqoenco comparatively
harmless. But events bave occurred
in Constantinople since the report in

not be averse.wben opportunity offers,
from trading upon the vulgar eutbusi-l
asm fostered by tbe sects for his own
ends. However little tbe Bektasby
bold to tbe old rigid dogmas of latum,
they know that their own power lie
chiefly in making use of those more
ignorant associations which profess
narrower creeds. Tbe Khostan sect
has its principal headquarters in Ye
man and at Mecca, and as it is at tbe
latter town that the annual general
meetings of all tbe societies ate held,
its members are better known, and
probably bave a more widespread in
fluence among their co-religionists,
than any other. Tbe Abdul Kader
el Bagdadi was originally a purely
religious order, but bas gradually
changed its character and now,
though less active than some other
societies, is politically as well. Tbe
most zealous and bigoted, however,
of aU the orders is tbe Darkawy
whose principal seat is Morocco.
These are the Jesuits of Mohamme
danism indefatigable and uncom
promising, hesitating at no device
for the accomplishment of their ob
ject It is their especial care to work
in close proximity to tbe Christian or
Jewish missionaries, so as to cuouter-
act the influence of their teaching ;
ana altnougb tbeir alliliations ana
branches extend over the whole of
Western Asia and Northern Africa,
"their propaganda is exercised with
greater fervor and fanaticism in those
countries such as India where
there is a considerable Christian ele
ment, or which bare fallen nnder tbe
dominion or influence cf European
Powers. Another Bocicty wbicb is
not mentioned br Mr. Wood, is de
scribed in a letter from Crete dated
1S3. This is the Mevlevis. which,
as well a tbe Bektashv, has been ia
full working activity in tbe inland for
some years past. It was origioated
by a Durvtab chief at Aidin, ia Asia
Minor, aad bis rapidly extended its
organization throughout tbe Ottoman
Empire, being encouraged every
where, as it appears, by tbe approval
of tbe Turkish Government Its ob
ject is philanthropic and roligiou
tbe propagation of Islamism, and tbe
education of tbe poorer classes in tbe
tenets of tbe Koran. Its apostles
bold weekly religious meetings for
the purpose of catechising their con'
verts and disciples, and were, wben
tbe consul wrote, constructing a large
teket" at a short distance outtide
the town of Canea.
Both the writers we have alluded to
above point out that, althrugb the se
cret societies bave proceeded latclv
wish greater caution, it must not be
inferred that tbeir fanaticism bas
abated, or tbat tbey have in anr way
relinquished their purpose, wbicb is
with tbem an object of fervent laith.
On the contrary circumstances have
in modern times contributed largely
to increase tbeir power and extend
their spheres of action. For instance
tbe introduction of Btearn navigation
in tbe Mediterranean, tbo Red Sea,
tbe Indian Ocean, and tbe Persian
Gulf has enabled tbeir missionaries
to meet at' fixed and regular times at
tbo sacred rendezvous of Mecca.

I A friend in Paris tblls me that at
the last reception at tbe Elyse the
Empress oi tue lirazus wore a umt
of pale bias brocatelie, ornamented
with old Bruxe'lf point lace, atd
bouquet of purple cactus ; as Lei d
dress, an aigrette, with cactus end
arrow of diamotrda. Madame de
Sampany, a dauie d' bonneur ot tbe
Empress, had a dress of brbcattlle,
queule de loup, or fox glove red, ovir
lemon colored faille, with high comb
of diamonds, and mantilla of white
blonde. Tbo Marecbule wore ivory
white fingered silk, over a skirt cf
Parma violet, with tbio cordons or
strings of dark velvet on the seams
and edge of the skirt At tbo Aute
uil races the Km press had a plain
dress of gray faille, princesse fash
ion, and for young, graceful figures,
extremely pretty; but as each season
has its peculiar flowers; so ought
each age to bave its fashion; howev
er, tbat is an awkward subjeet to
touch upon, but in my eye the chief
evil of the princesse shape ts that
the stouter the lady happens to be,
the more she presists in wearing this
shape, and in addition insists oa hav
ing the dress maua a a cljso-gttiog as
possible. As a rule, however, all
dresses are nada much leas tight

slave of Mr. E. Q. Tender, who after
wards bought Henry aud bis mother
and moved to Atlanta. During tbe
last nine months of tbe war Henry's
