Many an amusing mistake has
been made by people hard of hear

t'ae subject of discourse happened
to be that of extraordinary mortality
among lawyers. "We have lost,"
said a gentleman, "not. less than
seven eminent barrcstcrs in as many
months." Tiie Dean, who was very
deaf, rose just ct the conclusion of
these remarks, and gave tlie com pany
grace: ''For this and every other
mercy, make us devoutly thankful."
On another occasion, at a military

There are said to ho ldd distinct

the luxuriance of vegetation is such
that wheat dc s no-u form ears. In
Japan tt is said, wheat has been de

no matter how much manure is
used, the straw will not grow larger,
though the length of the ear in

than two feet, ami often not more
than 'JO inches.
Through selection, winter wheat
has been chan 'eil to summer

converted in tiie same time to winter

lsis was supposed to liave intro
duced wheat into Egypt, Demeter
into tSreece, and the Emperor Chin
Wong into China about o.OOO n. c.
In Europe it was cultivated before
the period of history, as samples
have been recovered from the lacus
trine dwellings of Switzerland. In
Enidand it was probably not culti
vated by the ancient, Kritons, but
the Anglo-Saxons when Lede wrote, j
early in the eighth century, sowed
their wheat in the Spring, and in j
the days of Queen Elizabeth its cul
tivation was but partial.
Indeed, wheat was an article of
comparative luxury till nearly the
seventh century. In India it seems
not to be native, but introduced,
for its Sanscrit name signifies "food
of the barbarian;" vet three-varie-.
ties are mentioned in the Iihavapra
kasa, one of which, a large grained,
is said to have come from the West,
and another, a small grained or
beardless wheat, it is said to have
been indegeous to Middle India,
The first wheat raised in the
"New World" wapW-own by Span
iards on the land of Isabella, in
January, 1 t4, and on March HO the
ears were gathered. The foundation
of the wheat harvest of Mexico is
said to have been three or four
grains cari'ullv cultivated in loJO,
and preserved by a f lave of Cortez.

that wheat was shown in the Ply

" The use of crashed or trround
limestone as a fertilizer has been oe
casionally suggested for many years

years ago, and tried as a substitute 1
for lime : but it3 results
were not

The Xin-jsra Bridge.
In ISIS, Charles Ellet, a brilliant,
rather than a profound, engineer,
built the first suspension bridge
over the Xiagra, on the site of tlie
present railroad bridge. The bridge
was for carriages and foot passen
gers. The towers were of wood, and
the roadway was anly about six feet
in width, just wide tnougli for one
team. Mr. Ellet in tlie beginning
had offered a reward of ?o to the
j first l'P.n wlio should get n string
over the river. The next wind y day
a large number of boys assembled
on the bank with kites, and before
night one of them, Iloman J. "Walsh,
then a boy of lo years of age, land
ed his kite on the Canada side and
received the promised reward. By
the means of this string larger cords,
