comprehend it, who are not able to speak
it so that .another party would under
stand it.
We think we have learned the reason
why every foreigner speaks the English
tongue with a foreign brogue, and why
a man can learn German or I reach and
not be known as a foreigner. It is sim
ply this; there is no other way to pro
nounce German words—they are spelled
as th e y ar e pronounced. Therefore they
are phonetic (inc only has to learn to
pronounce the German letters in order
to spell and pronounce correctly. The
difficulty, almost the only difficulty u, the
pronumaalion of the English langhage
foreigners arises hum the local or syl
labric emphasis or accent. Foreign
scholars express themselves in respect to
emphasis that it is the most difficuit pal t.
In tact, that there is more difficulty in
the emphasis than in all the other parts
of our language. A German scholar
conversing- with us on this subject, re
mat ked that the •*ettt-phasis" was the
trouble. Instead of saying as we do,
ein-pha-sk, he puts the stress upon the
middle syllable, and takes One of the let
ters from the last.syllable, so that it reads
eau-phas-is: and really we hardly knew
what the word meant, as he used it.—
Ile knew the meaning of the word, but
did not know how to pronounce it.
We hear men of Irish desount pronounc
ing[heir words without any brogue ex
pr in the emphasis. They will tell
about edu-sate and calca-late, and thus
we detect their foreign origin.
When all the children of all nations
are educated phonetically, we shall come
near to that acquisition so much to be
desired, namely, a universal language.

The puff box must he called to the assis

word of advice. Blue, as we have seen,
is the most readily effected by light, and
yellow the least, if, therefore, you would
keep your complexion clear and free from
tan freckles whilst taking your delightful
rambles at tln4 sea-side, discard by all
means the blue veil, and substitute a
dark gi een or yellow one in its stead.—
Bine tulle offers no more obstruction to

Half a yard of yellow net, though per

Adventure with a Bengal Tiger.
Just as daylight was failing us, and
while we were still a couple of miles
from camp. I observed a troop of mon
keys crowded together on a tree, which
overhung a clump of long grass, bound
in!, from branch to branch in a state of
great agitation, screaming, chattering,
and making hideous grimaces, as if half
enraged mid half terrified at the sight
of some of jest them.
"What is the matter with the mon
?" I in, i mred of my guide, in
Ilindostanee.
'•lt is a tiger, probably,' he replied
puffing away at tiffs sheroot with perfect
coolness, and striding along as if it
were all a matter of course.
We had just passed the thicket, and
were making a short turn round the end
of it, when, to my utter dismay, I found
myself face to face, and within twenty
yards of a royal tiger, buisily engaged
in tearing up the carcass -of a wild hog
he had just killed. My hair almost
stood on end as the brute raised his
enormous head, stueared with blood,
and glared upon us with his malignant
gi-cen eyes. Mobadeen Broiled his
cheroot, and, remained motionless as a
statue, with his kecu eye steadily fixed
upon that of the tiyor. I knew enough

"Indeed," said he, on one occasion
he talked to the jury seven minutes in
such a manner that it took me on the
beach half au hour to straighten them
out." He added, '1 once asked him,
Col. Burr, why cannot lawyers always
save the time and spare the patience of
the court and jury by dwelling only on
the most important points in their cas
es ?" to which Burr replied-.
"Sir, you demand the greatest fhoul
ty of the human mind, seleotion."
He is well known to have been one
of the most effective advocates in his
time, and in tkis matter, if in nothing
else, deserves to be studied and im
itated. We refer to a single foreign
example, an eminent Ei.glish banister.

ceed half au hour, lam always doing
mischief to my client. If I drive into

We commend his method and his
reason for it, not only to ministers, but
quite as urgently to lawyers and mem
bers of Congress.
An Erect Position .
A writer on health very justly con
demns the habit of lounging, which a
large number of persons indulge, as in
jurous to health. lie says : "An erect
bodily attitude is of vastly more impor
tance to health than is generally imag
ined. Crooked bodily positions, main
tained fir any length of time, are al
ways injurous: whether in setting,
standing, or lying posture, whether
sleeping or walking. To sit with the
body leaning forward on the stomach
or to one side, with the heels elevated
to a level with the bead is not only in
bad taste, but exceedingly detrimental
to health. It cramps the stomach,
presses the vital organs, interrups the
free motions of the chest, and enfeebles
the functions of the abdominal and thor
acic organs, and, in fact, unbalances
the whole muscular system. Many
children become slightly humpbacked,
or severely round shouldered, by sleep
ing with the head raised on a high pil
low. When any person finds it easier
to sit or stand, or walk or sleep in a
crooked position than a straight one,
such persons may be sure his muscular
system is badly deranged, and the more
careful he is to preserve a straight or
upright position, and get back to nature
again, the bet ter.' '
Filling lee Houses with Snow.
At; the time is now approaching when
the supply of ice for the ensuing year
is to be secured, I beg leave to trive
you the experience of one of oar "tilt . -
Farine's Club," of Clifton, (=Yin).
ills ice nouse is situated on the side of
a gravel hill, covering, a - pit ten feet
deep and t welve feet squire, and is
a simple frame structure oveir the pit
fOur or five feet hi }:eighth; the
sales of the pit are boarded up. and
the ihiaina g e is through the gravel.
Finding it expensive to haul ice from
the neighboring ponds and rivers, he
last winter ins house with snow,
after the custom p,evaiMir: in Switzer
land and California, (for illy friend is a
iraveler.) simply rolling it up in masses
and with a wheelbarrow Conveying it
to the house—hest lining the sides of
the pit with MUM", and after it was
fined covering the snow with the same
material, thus filling tile house, without
cost and securing au abundant supply
of good ice for his large Nally during
the whole smuttier. The show settled
down into a cdmpact mass when the
spring and summer heats affected
and a portion stili remains at Ule bot
iota of the pit as a solid glacier of the
Signs that Fails.

inn-ketper who beanie proud as he

A Hint for Hard Times.
Many a farmer spends inure money in
a year ter zobacco than would provide
his fainilith a religious newspaper,
and enable in also to send a copy to
some poor tinnily in his neighbornood.
Such farmers may profit by the example
of a clergyman who relates his method
of enduing his appetite f,r the baietul
weed, as to:lows: -I had," said he, "a
deep well of very cold water, and when
ever the evil appetite craved indulgeace.
I resorted immediately to fresh drawn
water. Or this I drank what I desired,
and then continued to hold water in my
mouth, throwing out and taking in sno
cessive mouthfuls, until -the craving
ceased. By a faithful adhearaum to this
pfactice for about a mouth, I Was cured;
and from that time to this have been en
tirely free from. *Hy appetite fir tiAate

Management of Orchards.-

No man living, I think, can show a'
good orchard of grafted fruit which was
kept in grass the first ten years of its
life. It is a point settled beyond con
troversy, that oi chards to be healthy
and productive, must be cultivated Mat
of the time. There is such a thing as
over-cultivation. The mistake ohm
est made, I think, of late years, is ton
ing young trees too much, thereby giv
ing them too luxurious growth, and in
creasing their liability to injury by the
frosts. Land, rich enough for a crop
of indian corn, is in good condition for
the healthful growth of apple trees.—
Even after trees are grown to a large
size, manuring so as to maintain a
vigorwls growth often renders the tree

tile wind, viten is in lOU bloom, while
its thriftier neighbors are expanding
their dimensions with no attempt at
fruitfulness. We prune the roots or
bend down the branches to induce frilt
