LIMB— Frs EFFICACY ON SOCE LAND.
Lime is of great efficiency in the eradi

once knew a field containing 166 acres,
which fotmerly grew nothing bnt heath.
A good d|essing of lime was applied on
the surfaoe of the sward, which has
nearly ilWtblevl the valne. This was

SHEEP HIS RESTORING WORN-OPT LAND
—sl>. H. G. Abbott, of Vassalboro,
Maine, several ynys since fenced off ten
acres of land, so poor that nothing hut
white and yellow weeds grew upon it.
and turned upon it fifty sheep, and kept
them there for two seasons. They ate
np every green thing.
In the spring of the second season
there sprung up a green coating, show
ing that the grass was coming in. and it
gained so fast as to induce a withdrawal
of the sheep the third season. The re
sult was a crop averaging two tons to
the acre on one portion, and two tons

quality of hay. The weeds hail nearly
all disappeared.
FIVE WATS TO DESTBOT ANTS.— I.
Ponr, copiously, hot water, as near the
bailing point as possible, down their bor
rows, and over their hill*, and repeat the
operation several times.
"2. Entrap the ants by means of narrow
sheets of stiff paper, or strips of board,
covered with some sweet, sticky sub
stance. The ants are attracted by the
sweets, and, sticking fast, can be de
stroyed aa often as a sufficient number
are entrapped.
3. Lay fresh bones around their
haunts. They will leave everything else
to attack these, and when thus accumu
lated, can be dipped in hot water.
4. Ponr two or three spoonfuls of coal
oil into their holes, and they will aban
don the nest.
5. Bury a few slices of onions in their
nests, and they will abandon them.
To RANISH FLEAS AND LlCE.—Pen
nyroyal, . a common weed in pasture*
and meadows, is very offensive to flea*,
lice, flies, and mosquitoes. To use it
advantageously, take lard, and rob or
grind it with a mailer on a smooth, flat
stone, slate, or piece of marble, with the
dried or green plant-leave*, stems, and
blossoms, until well mixed Let it stand
twenty-four hours, melt at a low heat,
and strain. With this, anoint the ears
and neck of the animal, or the perches
and nejts of poultry which may be in
fested. A small quantity may be nib
bed under the wings of a hen with a
brood at young chickens. A few drops
of the oil of pennyroyal in sweet oil,
nibbed on the face, neck, and hand*,
will keep off mosqnitoes, however thick
they may be. A good night's rest mat
be secured in the wont infested woods
or swamp* where these insects or black
-flies do most abound, by the nse of this
mixture. Keep it out of the eyes, as its
presence there is not agreeable.
ICE CREAM IN THE CorNTßT.—Scald
two quarts of fresh milk—if a little cream
be added all the better. Stir well to
keep from burning; beat up from four
to eight eggs, according to convenience,
and poor the scalding milk on the eggs
Stirling well; when cold add sugar, and
flavor to the taste; pour the cold con
tents into a tin pail or can, holding al>out
three quarts, put on the cover and set in
an ordinary wooden pail; pound the ice
to size of hens' eggs and less, pack it
around the tin can, mixing in about
one pint of salt; pack this till it reaches
nearly the top of the can containing the
mixture to be frozen, but be careful none
entejj.it; now move the pail by the bail,
lifting - the cover occasionally to scrape
off tne frozen cream on the inside, so
that bther portions may come in con
tact With the freezing surface. From
fifteen to twenty minutes will be suffi
cient;-and the dish may be served up at
once, or set away, without removing
from; the wooden pail, in a cool place for

If 1 am asko.l what was the attitude of
the peasant* during the war and between
the two armies. 1 reply that their behav
ior wax the most lamentable of all the
lamentable speotaelea in this unhappy
struggle. It is among the |maantx that
the results of ignorance and uelttahneaa
have exhibited themselvea in the most
striking manner. In the Ardeunea the
|as>ple wore not her*tie, but at any rate
they aaaisted the French Army, heljsd
the wounded, and were not utterly vile
la-fore the enemy ; but in Normandy and
tin* lleaneo, where 1 was afterward sta
tioned, the state of demoralisation waa
frightful. The }H-asants were tat soltish
to make the least sacritlee for their owu
soldiers ; and thus ltoth from fear ami
from interest became aultoervienl to the
Germans, furnishing them with provi
sions and oilier assistance. The people
;of lU>uuieri*s, between Mantes and
Evreux, were weak enough to ootid their
letters to the Prussians at Mantes that
they might lie read liefore being forward
| <d to Evreux. With .rare exceptions
they did nothing for the wounded ; but
if we liappeued to Is* sinvessful in an
action, I cannot desertls- tlielow ferocity
with which they turned ujw>ti the tier
mails, liefore whom they had so recently
! been cringing. At Oucques the ambu
lance had some difficulty in pn-venting
two woutidcd 1 kitartans from l>eiiig
massacred by the jeople. A St Leon
am I a iH-asant actually amused himself
with pulling the broken leg of a German,
for the mere sake of causing him torture.
At Giucttuer the people througed round
a solitary wounded oftli-er, and area i led
him with threats ami insults of all kind*.
And their stupidity was equal to tln-ir
vrirkednem. They were constantly mis
takuig us for Germans on account of onr
tlag, and of tin- ambulance emas on our
sleeves. They were eartaiu that we were
in communication with the Prussians,
because we were not afrutil of them ;
and accused us of tiring rockets to point
out the position ot the army to the
enemy. At Somiuanthe they were con
vinced that the Prussians had euiue be
cause onr ambulance was established
there ; ami at Ouzouer it was In-lieve 1
that we had plundered the wounded, and
that our only object in nursing the
(latieuts was to make money. Ido not
deny that devoted hearts, and souls
above the common, wen* occasionally to
j IK- met with. I have heard from peasauts
iof both sexes gulden words, which will
remain in my recollection as long as I
live ; but the great majority, even w hen
intelligent, arc shamefully demoralized,
and scandalously profligate, scltlsh and
wicked. and scandal* rage
witli furs- in the villages, and even in
the fanulicM themselves things occur
which are too bad to lie mentioned.—

We have heard time ami again of the
prodigal son. What of the prodigal
daughter ? She exists. A Rochester
newspaper brings us the meager outline
of the career of one whose condition
seems to us so peculiarly sad, ami at the
same time so representative of the exper
ience of many another prodigal daugh
ter, whose case has never \vu recorded,
that we take it as the text of a paragraph
here. The girl, when residing at home,
was a teacher in Sumlav school, and en
joyed the respect of ln-r frieml* and the
love of her family. For some time post
she has been living at a house of ill re
put" iu a city distant from her native
Elace. At the solicitation of her family,
er former ]uiator communicated with
her, and finally went to visit her, and
informed her of the conditions upon
which she might return home and be
shielded from the necessity of clinging
to her present mode of life. Thoae con
ditions were that she should give up that
mode forever, return to her native place
and enter an asylum. The heart-broken
]*-intent expreaael her willingness to
embrace the first two conditions, but
shook her head at the third. Her soul
was hungering and thirsting for love—
for a father's blessing, a mother's kiwi,
the sympathy of the brother* and sisters
among whom die had spent a happy
childhood. She was longing to be for
given, yearning to be received hack into
the good old faiths once more. It was
the old story over again of the mtiuman
itv of society and the family to woman.
Tjie prodigal sou is received with opeu
arms ; the prodigal daughter is given the
cold shoulder. The fatted calf is killed
for the one ; the broken bit* are given
to the other. This girl asked for her
family, and they gave her un asylum
demanded love and they yielded charity.

The Frnxlish Income Tax.
The history of the income tax iu Eng
land ]>sae*f>cH a special interest at this
particular period, when taxation is neces
sarily in all men's thoughts. It was in
1H42 tliat Sir Bolx rt I\-el brought in his
too memorial bills. The rate was then
7d. per £l, or £2 18*. 4d. percent. For
11 years this state of thiug* lieing con
tinued ; bnt in 1853, when Mr. Gladstone
was Cltancellor of the Exchequer, un act
was passed limiting the duration of the
tax at 7d. per £1 to seven years, after
which it was to lie gradually retinoid in
amount, until, like the oeleorated horse
whose daily diminishing allowance of
grass at last reached a handful, it died
of iuanition. Meantime incomes be
tweeu £IOO an.-1 £1.50 were rendered lia
ble to a penalty of sd. in tlie £l. On
the occurrence of the Crimean war this
programme hail to he hreken through,
and the 7tl. was raised to Is. 2d. per £l.
In 1857 the rate was again lowered to
7il. per £l, anil the next year to sd. per
£l. In 1859, however, the rate for in
comes above £l5O was made 9d.; for in
comes lietween that stint and £IMO it was
made Old. jxr £l. In 1801 the 9d. rate
was raised to 10d., and the 6}<L to 7d.
In 1862 Id. wns taken off each class. In
1863 it uniform rati" of 7d. JHT £1 was
imposed, lytt for income* under £2OO a
reduction of £6O was allowed. In 1H64
Id. was taken off, and in 1865 another
2d., so that it now stood at 4d. per £l.
It continued the same figure in 1866, hut
in Novemlier, 1867, when the Abyssinian
war had to be provided for, it wo* raised
to sd. and the next April to Gd. In 1869
it was reduced to 5d , and last year to
4<l.
A Sew Fleetrieal Theory.
M. Bocquerel has just communicated
to the Academy of Science in Paris a
new hypothesis concerning the origin of
atmospheric electricity. In his opinion,
its source resides in* the sun, which,
according to the recent discoveries of
Mr. Norman Lockyer, is surrounded by
an immense envelope of hydrogen which,
being mixed up with a considerable
proportion of watery vapor, is therefore
jsisitively electrified. This communi
cates its fluid to the whole mass of
ethereal snlmtauce which All* the inter
planetary SJMMVS, ami thence to onr
atmosphere. Bnt a* the latter is a hail
conductor, the consequence is, accord
ing to our author, that the upper strato
of the air must lie saturated with jxisitive
electricity. Here, says a French journal
we pauM! to ask what evidence he has, in
the first place, of the existence of this
ethereal substance ; and secondly, of its
condactibility ? M. Becquerel Joe* not
think it necessary to stop at such de
tails, hut seeks to establish hi* theory by
various arguments, such as, for instance,
the fact that in vacuo an ejectrifh-d
liquid evaporates mere rapidly than
when not in that Utah'; and that an
anroraboreali* is aeoeompanied by a
noise which he finds to be exactly the
same aa that produced by an electric
spark.

An Indian Sun Dance,
A correspondent of a Western paper
gives some revolting details of the " Sun
dances'" of the Sionx Indiana, which
take place annually. About the Ist inst.
the •'Sundance" commcured at Obey
enue. It continue* 21 hours without in
termission, the dancers not even stop
ping for refreshments. It i* during the
carnival that the young Indiana who
aspire to rank among the "braves" ore
subjected to a trying ami cruel ordeal.
Incision* an l made in either breast with
a sharp knife, cutting clear to the bone,
when the muscles are raised lip and a
stout stick inserted beneath. A similar
incision is made iu the luick, and a stick
(Hissed through the flesh as in the other
ease. Then a stout cord is attached to
either end of the stick, no that it may
not draw out, and the cord securely
fastened to the ceiling of the council
chamber. The candidate* for promotion
then commence u dance, jumping for
ward and backward, throwing their
whole weight upon the cord, ami they
keep up until the stick* nre torn through
the flesh. The young Indian who gives
up from pain or exhaustion before he
succeeds in wrenching the stick* from
his body is vtarlarftd unworthy to be a
warrior, and is forever dingraoed in the
eve* of his brethren. The scene is said
to l>e a most revolting one to witness.
The blood streams from the torn and
Isoerated flesli. while the devotees with
demoniac yells plunge around in a jier
fect frenzy. The spectators applaud
ami taunt by tttrus, inciting the poor
wretches to more desperate effort* to
free themselves, until finally, as the last
sinew stia]>s, and they fall all gory and
exhausted upon the ground, there is
raised such a series of savage whoops
and yells that one could well imagine
himself in a veritable pandemonium.
COAL. —The Scnuitou Republic thinks
it is a fact lieyoud question that there are
at present sent to market not loss than
500,000 tons of cool per week At this
rate there would lie 26,000,000 of tons
shipped per year. As there have not
been heretofore, and will not during the
next twelve months, be consumed more
than about 16,000,000 of tons—at most
not moro than 18,000.000—it does not re
quire a very competent economist to ice
what the result must inevitably lie.
Either the present rate of production
must 1k? reduced or there mifst be months
of idleness at some time within twelve
mouths. At least every fifth ton of coal
mined is in excess of the demand for
actual consumption.
A BOY HERO. — A Paris correspondent
tells this story: A laiy of thirteen, found
fighting, was taken to lie shot. He took
a silver watch from his pocket and cried
out: "Captain, do let me take this first to
a friend across the street; I borrowed it."
"Oh! you scamp!" said the officer, "I
understood —you want to run off." "My
word of honor, I will come back again, '
suid the Vioy; and the Cap tin, seeing it
wa* a child, was only too f(lad to lie rid
of him. In ten minutes the IHIV came
back and took his stand with his face to
the wall. "Here I am, fire?" Does
Roman history tell us anything braver?
Tlie captain boxed the little hero's ears
and ordered him never to show his faee
there again. They could not fire on him.
DISAPPOINTED LOVE.— Some years ago
n man in Massachusetts was disappoint**!
in love. He bought him a secluded
spot, and ever after dressed in the garb
of woman, while about the household
duties, and called himself Miss Buck,
hut assumed the garb of niati when he
went out. If any one called, he would
ask who they wanted to see, and if it
was Mr. Buck he would hurry off and
change his apparel, and appear as a
young lady. He died a few days ago,
aged 87.
JUST IN TIME.—A young man from
Savannah married a young lady from
New York a month ago, and shortly after
wards he left her, ostensibly on business.
Not hearing from him, she took a
steamer and arrived in Savnnnah just in
time to prevent him from marrying
another woman—alia bursting into the
room just as the knot was being tied.
There was a scene of course.
A Is-saon fro in l.lfr.
Never rose the sun on a brighter day,
or shed ita glorious beam* on a fairer
bride or mors noble bridegroom than on
the day when Ague* Lynne ami Chester
Moore stood fa-fore the altar and plighted
their troth to one another.
It was it bright and joyous bridal, and
no sign of the dark cloud that was to
overshadow their future could fa- discov
ert-d.
Loving oue another with a rare and
steailfaat devotion, little dreamed they
that the time would eorne when their him
would fa- aeult-d to out- another, and the
eyes tliat looked only now, would fa
coldly averted as from the face of an
enemy.
En* tin- first mouth of inurrit-d lift- had
juiimhl, a studied eoldttens hail groan up
between them ; why, neither knew or
sought to know. He was reserved and
overlieariug iu his maimer ; she, proud,
fiery and unyielding.
"My ila ugh lor," plead'd the anxious
mother, "yield a little to your husband's
wishes, for sweet love's sake. You are
making a ship* reek of your owu Inqqu
Hess us well a* his."
"1 take pride iu your indeiM-adenoe of
charaeter, dear Agnes. Begin your new
life as vou intend to end it. Let your
husband see that he cannot heml yon to
Ins will," said one who h.ul ■MSSSWSd iu
makiug her liushuiid feel the strt-ugth of
her will."
"Listen to me, t'heater,' fa-fore it is too
late, and your haptiiuen* is destroy is 1 for
ever. Humor and pet your wife a little
more," said tui old and tried friend, who
with |iaiu hail marked their growing <-•
trangemeut "Agnes love* von truly,
hut rt-memfa-r that sll her life she ha*
lu-eu the (letted darling of her mother,
and your uncalled-for severity of luuuuer
galls lu-r to tlie soul. He more lenient
with her caprices, aud her great love for
yon will enable her to overcome that iiu
|M-tuo*ity of teiujH-r tliat uunoys you ao
much."
"(heater, my boy, you are an example
to all young uieu tv>iit*-m]ilating matri
mony. Catch you giving way to a wo
man's whims, if she i* your wife and
doe* cry a little. Hold out the way you
have fa-gun, and you w ill lead a model
life," laughed the falsi)U] friend of the
youug huslamd to whom he had fa-en
giving a history of his infelicities.
Thus counseled, the two who had
promised fa-fore tlud and man to love
aud cherish one another till |arted bv
death, went on from txilduen* to bitter
recrimination*, and finally, in a fit of
uncontrollable passion, the huidiaud ex
claimed : "Would to thai 1 luul never
marriixl! My life ha* fa-en a continual
torment since tliat ill-omened tlay !"
Away ti> tin* further comer of the
room, flew a sacred fa-trotluil riug, shot
thither by the indignant wife, and she
herself, with a hlauehed and n-Mohite
face, hut with trembling hmlia, wa* hur
rying from her husband's home fa-fore
he fully realized what hail happcued.
"I*-t her go," be intitU-rvd. with a bit
ter sneer ou bis lips, but with a vague
fx-ling of alarm aud remorse iu hi* heart
at his hasty words and their unlookcd
for effect.
"lielter have her cry out at home than
here : I do hate so to see her cry," he
said to himself as he lighted hi* cigar
and prc|mred to go out.
"She will fa- *tiro to lie at home again
i when I come in to-ntghh To go after
her would spoil everything."
And yet no could not satisfy himself
with any reasoning, do where fn- would,
(the white, horror-stricken face of lua
wife a* he last saw it roue up la-fore him.
But in neeordauce with the laughing
advice of his friend, he put tlie |iale
uuagv to one side, resolving not to fa
n-moved from hi* proud (xwition by a
i woman's angry tear*.
To his great surprise and uneasiness
( Agues was uot at home when he reached
there at a late hour that night, nor did
i she return the next day. nor the next.
Still his pride, bolstered up by his
frieud'a approval, would not allow him
, U DM'k her.
"Now is the turning-point in your life,
Chester," *aid this fals- and careless sd
viser to the now wretched husbaml.
"Yield now, and fa- a slave to a wo
man's whims all the rest of your life."
Then conn- t long r from tlie
young wife's mother. She deplored
their unhappy misunderstanding, hut
her daughter would never retuni to hit
home aguin until the cruel words that
had driven her forth were recalled.
Love, aud all the nobler qualities of
hi* nature pleaded loudly for Uie iusultcd
wife, but again hi* stubborn pride stifled
the yearning* of his heart, and more than
a we< k had pouted aince the letter was
received from Ague*' mother.
At the end of that time the voice of
love could uo longer tie disregarded, the
yearning desire to lie reconciled to his
young wife would not be crowded down
anv longer.
lint by this time the tongue of scandal
was litiry with their names, and lie found
that Agnes could la* even more unyield
ing than himself would lie. She would
listen to no reasoning, and all his im
paiMolicd pleading* fell on heedless ear*.
Aud thus at the end of six mouths of
married life they were as widely separated
a* though the ocean rolled lietween them.
Two year* fraught with bitter grief to
both was drawing to a close, and man
kind were preparing to welcome the ever
precious period of "Peace on earth" that
should bring g.sal will toward men,
whatever cause has divided them the
whole twelvemonth before.
The Divine birthday dawned bright
and beautiful, and. for the first time in
two long weary years. Cheater Moore
wended his war to his old accustomed
place of worship before the sail blight
foil Upon his life. His heart yearned
toward his still fondly, idolized wife,
and he determined to gaze ujion her fiuv
once more, however coldly she might
frown upon him.
As he expected, he saw her in her
accustomed place, and. finding a seat
near her, he entered into the sacred
worship with gTenter fervency than ever
lieiore.
Agnes wn* pale and pensive, and more
than ouce he detected a fugitive glance
in liis direction, but her eyes were quick
ly withdrawn, and she seemed alworliod
iu her devotions.
The deep tones of the organ, touched
by a master's hand, rose and fell, and
the ineom]MUmble voices of the choir
singing a glad anthem, made n glorious
melody, almost too grand for earth.
"Peace ! |ieaee ! peace !" rang the glad
refrain, anil during that outburst of
heavenly sound the eyes of the long-pnrt
ed husband and wife met, not to lie
hastily withdrawn, but to gaze with a
depth of meaning that sjsike plainer tluui
words.
They knew that their bitter past was
blotted out forever, and that a new life,
full of a happy promise, was ojiciiing
before tliem.
The organ still pealed, and the celes
tial anthem still filled their ears, and
mingled with the feelings of holy devo
tion excited by the grandeur of the wor
ship, wn* one of deep gratitude that
there was at leant peace lietween them,
which would never more lie broken. No
more senseless bickerings, uo more cross
purposes, no more wicked pride, but
henceforth they would walk hand in hand
down the nigged path of life, liearing
each other's burdens, and sharing each
other's joys until death parted them.
Br M MRK TOURS.— A Boston psper
speaks thus of the difficulty of choosing
which way to go for a summer tour:
"One may start from Boston with four
week*, and a hundred and twenty-five
dollars nt his disp<i*al, and see in full the
picturesque beauty of the Adirondseks,
or plant himself in the wild mountain
seeiipry of Virginia and drink his fill at
some of her innumerable springs. Or,
if lie can command a couple of months
and *ix hundred dollar*, he can traverse
the continent, look out on the Pacific,
and see the wonderful Yosemite. Or
with still less means, lie may embark on
a European steamer, spend a day in Lon
don, give fifty days to Switzerland, and
lie at home in ninety."
ANNOYED.—A Prussian cavalry offioer,
who was badly wounded at the battle of
Gravelotte, was greatly annoyed by the
cries of some wounded soldiers l>iug
near him. He stood the annoyance as
long as he could, and then testily called
out: "Stop your howling over there! Do
you think you are the only persons killed
in this tight ?"

charge of stock stem to tin nk they can
ignota nature's laws with impunity, and

fact that nature, in the spring of the

out the system. New. if those eompa

fresh-cut grass, and give to each of their

profitable than losing their horses, even
if it doe* cause some trouble and incon

that the gross weakens them for their

Terrible Kailrvsd Accident.
A moat terribl* accident <ioeurml on
the Newark and New Y'oik Road, at
Newark. The half-past seven |Mi*senger
train had proceeded but s abort dintaijee
from the depot, and had reached s point
opposite Scllalk's plar-e, when it faajied
the track. It waa dragged along fifty
yards, and wa then ]iitche<l over into
the meadow*. A number of jisasenger*
saved their lives by jumping from the
car*. Of thuae who went on with the
train five are re|Krtt-d a* having been
killed, and about twenty aeverely in
junil. Among the killed are tlie engi
neer aud the fireman. The accident is
attained to a misplaced switch.
Tlie Newark Rnjilrr says of ths terri
ble accident:
The switch had been turned for a gravel
train at th spur now bnilt to Etixafa-th,
aud had been neglected to be readjusted.
The trains were muning at a high rate
of speed, but a* soon a* the engineers
discovered the fearful danger, they
Hounded the whistle for " down brake*, 1 '
but in vain. The locomotives plunged
into each other, that of the train fa-ing
hurled from the track into the adjacent
ditch, while the other wa* completely
overturned, but remained on the track.
The smoking car of the down train waa
tliruwu upon tlie Under of the loco
motive ami the first paawnger car behind
telcm-oped into it for a distance of fully
ten feet. In a few moment* sufaavquent
U the collision the horrible fact became
apparent tliat the car* and engine were
on fire. The flames spread rapidly and
soon enveloped everything within their
reach. The greatest excitement prevail
ed among the paawngers of tioth trains,
ladies' nrrmoicl, strong men wept and
rushed to the door*, while other* hurled
baskst*. bundles, hats, and it is aaid in
some instance* small children, from the
window*. The terror thus created was
augmented by the report that score* at
